Chapter 979

~8 min read 1,410 words

Turning his head, Wang An noticed that the sack hanging in mid-air containing the black bear meat now had several holes in it.

However, because the sack was hung relatively high and the meat chunks were relatively large, this leopard only scratched a few holes in it, not even eating any meat scraps.

It must be said that this leopard was also unlucky enough; not only did it not get to eat any meat, but it was also grazed twice by bullets.

You have to know that a bullet graze is completely different from a knife cut; a knife cut is just a slit, while a bullet graze plows a groove through skin and flesh.

In such hot weather, these two grooves wouldn't heal in a short time.

Just when Wang An intended to take the sacks containing meat and honey down from the tree, Mu Mu Xueqing and Wang Li walked over in a hurry, leading the horses and carrying guns.

From quite a distance away, Mu Mu Xueqing asked anxiously:

"What's going on, brother-in-law? I heard you fired two shots?"

Wang An glanced back at the two and said very calmly:

"A leopard wanted to steal the meat, I scared it away with a gunshot."

Upon hearing that there was a leopard, Mu Mu Xueqing was shocked, but Wang Li immediately asked:

"Fourth Brother, that leopard, it wouldn't be the one we ran into before we protected the green seedlings, would it?"

As they spoke, the two had already arrived in front of Wang An and worked together to lower the meat and honey from the tree branches.

Wang An nodded and said:

"Mm, it's that one. That thing is really damn fast. I fired two shots and only grazed its skin."

How awesome Wang An's marksmanship was, Mu Mu Xueqing was quite clear about; after all, Mu Mu Xueqing's current shooting technique was taught to him hand-in-hand by Wang An.

So when Mu Mu Xueqing heard Wang An say he only grazed the leopard's skin, he asked very shocked:

"Brother-in-law, with your marksmanship, you can't hit that thing? Is that thing that evil?"

Wang An rolled his eyes at Mu Mu Xueqing and said:

"Then what do you think? A few days ago when I went to protect the green seedlings with Old Five, I gave it a shot too, and didn't hit it either."

Wang Li suddenly smacked his lips and said:

"Then we killed this man-bear, it probably won't be of much use, right? With a leopard wandering around every day, who would dare to go into the mountains to dig vegetables and pick mushrooms?"

Wang An glanced at Wang Li and said:

"What's the matter? Do you have some ideas about this leopard?"

Wang Li shook his head hurriedly and said:

"No, I don't, I really don't. Fighting the man-bear almost cost us Erhuang, if we fight the leopard again, wouldn't we have to sacrifice all these dogs?"

Wang An smiled and didn't pick up Wang Li's topic.

Mainly because people should have self-knowledge. Anyway, in this season, Wang An didn't think he had the ability to fight a leopard.

Looking at the lowered sack which was already full of holes, Wang An thought for a moment and said to Mu Mu Xueqing and Wang Li:

"Unload all the sacks on the horses, then divide all the meat here into those three sacks. By the way, the fur here isn't worth much, which one of you wants this small black bear skin?"

It must be said, although the fur in this season isn't worth much, the feel of this small black bear skin is still quite good.

Actually, the reason why the fur at this time isn't worth much and the supply and marketing cooperative doesn't accept it is because the animal fur at this time is relatively hard, and there is relatively little down.

Many people think that "down" is a name that represents all the hair on an animal's body.

But in fact, in the eyes of experts, hair is hair, and down is down; only fur with a lot of down is valuable.

After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Li immediately said:

"I'll take it. This black bear skin is oily and smooth, it's actually quite good. When I have time, I'll send it to Li Xiuyu and make her a bear skin coat, hehehehe."

Seeing Wang Li's cheap look, Mu Mu Xueqing said with a face full of mockery:

"Look at your pathetic look, just like you've never seen a woman in your life."

Who knew Wang Li wouldn't be ashamed but proud, saying:

"So what? I've seen so many women, but none of them are mine. Isn't it just Li Xiuyu who lives with me?"

It must be admitted that what Wang Li said was really not wrong.

Wang An and Mu Mu Xueqing looked at each other and then all burst into "Hahahaha..." laughter.

Putting the meat and honey back on the horses' backs, the three of them each led their horses down the mountain.

Although they didn't delay on the way, by the time the three of them got home, the sky was already in a state of half-dark and half-light.

Seeing the three return safely, Wang An's family and Wang Wang Daliang's couple finally let out a sigh of relief.

Liu Liu Guilan looked at the black bear skin Wang An threw on the ground and asked happily:

"Xiao An, the man-bear was finally killed by the three of you, right?"

Wang An nodded with a smile and said:

"That's a must, we went into the mountains aiming for it, could we not kill it?"

As he spoke, Wang An took out the two bear galls and said to Liu Liu Guilan while handing them to her:

"Mom, this is the black bear gall, please take the trouble to scald it in a while."

Taking the two cloth bags, Liu Liu Guilan asked curiously:

"How come there are two galls? Can one man-bear produce two bear galls?"

Wang An wanted to tease his mother, and just as he was about to speak, Mu Mu Xueqing showed off on the side:

"Let me tell you, Auntie, we had a really good time in the mountains today. Not only did we kill the man-bear, but the three of us also picked up a small black bear. The key is that this small black bear also produced a gold gall, hehehehe..."

Wang Wang Dazhu hurriedly asked upon hearing this:

"What do you mean by picking up a small black bear? Can you pick up a black bear?"

With Wang Wang Dazhu's question, Mu Mu Xueqing immediately used his silver tongue to tell everyone about the process of "picking up the black bear" as if he were telling a story.

"... It was a long story, the three of us looked up, and saw a black shadow smashing down on the dogs. When the dogs saw that things were bad, they jumped three feet high on the spot. The three of us were a little further away, and only heard my brother-in-law shout: 'What is this?'..."

It must be said that what was originally just a matter of a black bear falling to the ground and dying was turned into a story by Mu Mu Xueqing.

Most importantly, it was told with great emotion and vivid detail, and it sounded quite interesting.

After Mu Mu Xueqing finished fooling around, Mu Mu Xueqing's older sister, Mu Mu Xueqing, might have felt a little embarrassed, so she stepped forward and hit Mu Mu Xueqing's arm, then said with a laugh and a cry:

"Why are you so talkative? A group of people just listened to you babbling here."

Although Mu Mu Xueqing was already married, this bloodline suppression still made Mu Mu Xueqing very afraid of his older sister.

Hearing Mu Mu Xueqing's words, Mu Mu Xueqing hurriedly apologized with a smile:

"Big sister, I'm not performing the scene from earlier for you guys? I think I told it quite well."

After Mu Mu Xueqing finished speaking, Liu Liu Guilan and Second Aunt Yao Ping spoke up one after another:

"That's right, Mu Xueqing told it so well."

"Mm, I haven't heard enough yet."

Thanks to "Great Empire Emperor" for the tip, thank you, thank you!

Wishing you, big brother: a bright future and smooth sailing all the way!
