Chapter 836: The long-awaited gunner title

After everyone returned to the front of the dugout, they transferred the wild boar carcasses from the backs of the mules, horses, and donkeys to the carts of the four-wheeled tractors and hand-guided tractors.

However, during this period, Wang An left two small wild boars of more than 20 jin, and also left one Oroqen horse each for himself and Wang Li.

As for the four-wheeled tractors and hand-guided tractors, they were driven home by Wang Daliang and Wang Dazhu.

And at this time, the time had already passed noon.

After Wang Dazhu and Wang Daliang led a group of people away, Wang An and Wang Li began to get busy for lunch.

Because of the time, the two still stewed meat and heated steamed buns as usual.

As for the roast suckling pig Wang An wanted to eat, this thing couldn't be eaten in a short while, so it could only be roasted in the afternoon and eaten in the evening.

When eating, Wang Li asked with a worried face:

"Fourth brother, when do you think that big claw will leave?"

Wang An shook his head upon hearing this and said:

"Who knows that; if it is willing to stay, it might stay for several years, and if it is not willing to stay, it might leave when autumn comes."

This question is actually something Wang An has always been puzzled about.

It is said that the tigers that come to the Heilongjiang side are generally female tigers that come over to give birth, because relatively speaking, the temperature here is a bit warmer than the Russian side.

After raising the tiger cubs, the tiger will migrate back to the Russian side again.

Of course, this is just a saying circulating locally; whether it is true or not, Wang An doesn't know either.

Not getting the answer he wanted, Wang Li chewed on the steamed bun while looking at the fire with an expressionless face, clearly feeling a bit absent-minded.

Wang An, however, said with a smiling face:

"What's wrong? A big claw scared you? You have a gun in your hand, what the hell are you afraid of? Besides, whether there is a big claw or not is still unknown, what do you have to be afraid of."

He saw Wang Li pondering and saying:

"My house is also about to start construction, hunting at this time is already tough enough, and if another big claw comes out and stares at it every day, and we don't dare to hit it, wouldn't that be very annoying?"

Wang An rolled his eyes at Wang Li upon hearing this and said:

"Look at your bear-like appearance, could it be that you are allowed to enter the mountains alone? Which time isn't it the three of us, or the two of us, or Xue Li? It's okay, if it dares to come out, we will just secretly shoot it to death."

Wang Li was stunned upon hearing this and subconsciously said:

"Secretly shoot it to death, can that work? If people find out, wouldn't we have to be buried with it?"

To tell the truth, if the tiger was shot to death without approval, Wang An would also be a bit scared.

After all, Wang An in his past life was locked in prison because of selling tigers and guns.

Wang An after rebirth absolutely did not want to repeat the same mistakes.

However, Wang An still forcibly pretended to be cool and said:

"Not necessarily, if people don't know, it will be fine, don't worry."

Just like that, after Wang An's guidance and encouragement, Wang Li was clearly much more relaxed.

After lunch, the two, who had nothing to do, lay on the kang of the dugout and had a beautiful sleep.

It is just that what Wang An and Wang Li didn't know was that at this time, the two had already been crowned with the title of "gunner" by the villagers of Kaoshan Village. The reason they could be crowned "gunner" actually also had Wang Dazhu's credit, because when everyone was chatting, Wang Dazhu inadvertently revealed that Wang An had previously led people from the county to slaughter a big claw.

One must know that locally, only those who have slaughtered tigers and leopards can be called "gunners," and Wang An and Wang Li are absolutely worthy of the existence.

And what Wang An and Wang Li didn't expect was that the results of the two protecting the green seedlings this time had already begun to spread outside Kaoshan Village.

In this era of rampant wild beasts, a village having gunners can give the villagers a lot of sense of security.

If Wang An knew that the "gunner" title he had been thinking about had been obtained so confusedly, I don't know what he would think.

Waking up from sleep, it was already 3:30 in the afternoon.

Walking out of the dugout, Wang An stretched a long yawn; don't say, this sleep was truly quite fragrant.

Taking out a cigarette and handing one to Wang Li, Wang An pondered and said:

"Old Five, you ride a horse home now to get two heads of garlic, and then go to my house to pour a pot of wine, and ask your sister-in-law for some sesame seeds, let's drink well tonight."

Wang Li took a puff of the cigarette and said while exhaling smoke from his two nostrils:

"Don't we still have to watch these crops tonight, can drinking work? Besides, what are you taking sesame seeds for, fourth brother?"

Wang An looked at the surrounding crops and said:

"We killed so many wild boars this morning, I think tonight should be very quiet, besides, we Wang family members don't get drunk when drinking, what are you afraid of, you hurry up, I will clean up that small one, and then we will roast the suckling pig tonight."

Once roast suckling pig was mentioned, Wang Li immediately became interested and asked with a curious face:

"How to roast a suckling pig, fourth brother, I haven't eaten it yet?"

Wang An lied with a smile:

"I haven't eaten it either, just heard people in the county talk about it, try it and you'll know, hehe..."

Wang Li nodded and said:

"Yeah, fourth brother, then I'll go back now, hehehehe..."

After Wang Li left, Wang An began to get busy.

Normally speaking, wild boar skin cannot be eaten, because wild boar skin is completely different from domestic pig skin; this thing is quite hard, and it is also very troublesome to clean up.

However, the small one is different; this thing's skin is very tender, as long as the hair is cleaned up, it is delicious when cooked.

So after Wang An started a fire, he threw the whole small wild boar into the fire, and then put a pile of dry thin tree branches on the small wild boar.

Very quickly, the whole small wild boar was buried in the fire.

After a few minutes, Wang An pulled the small wild boar out again, and then began to use an invasion knife to carefully scrape off the black crust on it.

It is just that this process is truly a bit time-consuming.

Fortunately, Wang An had nothing to do at this time, and there was plenty of time.

After scraping the black crust clean, Wang An carried the small pig to the water ditch at the edge of the field to give it a careful bath; only then did Wang An open the belly of this small pig.

Finally, cutting off the unclean pig head and pig trotters and throwing them away, and cleaning it again, the preparation work for this roast suckling pig was finally completely finished.

Actually, for a normal roast suckling pig, the pig head is not thrown away, but this thing is very troublesome to clean, and for such a small wild boar, the pig head doesn't have much meat, so it is better to just throw it away to save trouble.

After cleaning up the small wild boar, Wang An carried the small wild boar back to the front of the dugout.

Breaking a pile of tree branches with leaves and spreading them on the ground, Wang An began to carefully marinate the small wild boar.
