Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 878 Big Anchovy

"It's different from this clearing. It's in the woods. It's easier for wolves to launch sneak attacks. We have to be more careful!"

Lu Lu warned, fired three empty shots into the sky, frightened back the wolves wandering around, and loaded the bullets slowly.

I called some of my brothers to help start the two cars with the crank handle.

He turned the car around and used his headlights to shine into the woods. Then he got out of the car and walked into the woods with his gun in hand.

When illuminated by the light, the wild wolves running in the forest retreated in fright and disappeared into the darkness.

Yuan Bao cleared the way in front, and when he entered the forest, he saw that wolves were caught in two of the seven or eight hooks hanging on the tree branches.

Being hung up by the hook, he couldn't move and could only scream in agony.

Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke were still on guard against the surrounding wolves, while Liang Kangbo and the other two went to tie up the two wolves they caught.

Things went smoothly. There was a commotion among the wolves, and some of them tried to rush over. However, under the gunfire of Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke, one of them got close and the other was killed. Soon, each of them settled down again and stayed away from each other. It opened until a few people carried the two wolves back to the tent and put them together with the first one.

Probably stimulated by the wolf blood, the wolves howled harder and harder.

But it was probably because of the wolf blood that these wolves felt that the forest was dangerous, so they wandered around the forest one by one and did not dare to enter rashly.

Lu Lu thought for a moment. With so many wolves gathered together, it was unreasonable that there would be no wolf king.

But with the help of flashlights and car headlights, I took a good look around, but I still didn't see any special wild wolves.

But looking at it this way, after catching three and shooting five, it seems that the number of wolves has not decreased, but is still increasing.

Vaguely, he heard long-lasting wolf howls coming from the meadow on the other side of the river.

Although the surrounding wolves were restless, they still did not launch a real and ferocious attack, probably because the wolf king had not yet issued an order.

"The number of these wolves is still increasing. If this continues, it will be detrimental to us!"

It was hard for Lu Lu not to be wary.

"The number is a bit too much... Otherwise, these wolves will not be willing to enter the forest now anyway, and they have become wary of those hooks. I am afraid they will not be so easy to get hooked. Let's throw more fish into the forest and let them grab them." , when we get carried away, maybe there are wild wolves who can’t grab those fish, so they turn to focus on the fish on the hook, and some are hooked, let’s make another wave, and take the opportunity to catch another wave!”

Liang Kangbo suggested: "When the scene becomes chaotic, no matter it is a person or a wild animal, it is actually the same, which will invisibly lower the level of defense. Moreover, wolves are very greedy... Once they successfully eat, they will not give up so easily. If you are full, Even better, it doesn’t have such a strong intention to attack. A full wolf and a hungry wolf are completely different things.”

"It makes sense, just do it like this and throw in more fish. Anyway, there are some in the river and you can catch more. It doesn't matter."

Lu Lu made a decisive decision.

Several people returned to the car, looked for the bags containing small fish, dragged two bags down, and went to the area where hooks were scattered in the forest.

After the work was done, the five people returned to the tent. Lu Lu turned off the car lights, but the car kept running.

Once the engine is turned off, it is very laborious to start it again in this cold weather.

After roasting by the fire for about half an hour, the forest became lively.

Wolf packs are divided into hierarchies. With so many wolves gathered together, it is likely that several wolf packs have gathered together.

Some wolves must have eaten the fish, and other wolves began to refuse to accept the fish and bite them.

At the beginning, there was not much movement, only bursts of fierce sounds and a whine from time to time were heard. After a while, things became manic.

Biting sounds, whining sounds, and screams kept coming from the forest.

Hearing this voice, several people looked at each other and laughed. They all knew that, just as Liang Kangbo said, there was internal strife in the wolf pack.

The temporarily assembled wolf pack is not monolithic.

In fact, even in a relatively fixed group of wolves, snatching and biting often occur when competing for food, especially when they are hungry, this situation will be more violent.

"Before, I heard an old man tell about a folklore wolf-catching technique. It was said that a salesman went out to sell goods. When he came back, he was targeted by more than a dozen wolves. His bare hands could be used as weapons. The only ones he had were his hands. A carrying pole couldn't resist it at all. When the wolves were about to move, he rushed to an abandoned house on the way and hid in it immediately.

There was no other way. There happened to be a lot of firecrackers among the goods for sale, so he made several strings and placed them in the yard, while others got into the house and hid them.

Those wolves that refused to give up climbed over the wall and jumped into the yard, and they all came in.At first, they smelled the smell of gunpowder from the firecrackers and did not dare to go near the house. Later, when they found out that there was no problem, they all gathered around the hut, scratching, scratching and screaming at the doors and windows.

At this moment, the salesman lit the firecrackers with matches. For a moment, the whole yard exploded with crackles and smoke was flying everywhere.

As a result, after the firecrackers blew up and the smoke dispersed, the salesman looked outside through the crack in the door. Guess what the result was? "

Liang Kangbo looked at several people with a smile and asked.

Zhang Shaofeng said with a smile: "It's impossible for them all to be killed by firecrackers at once, but firecrackers can't do this."

Raymond patted him on the shoulder: "Second brother, don't be so secretive, just say it quickly."

"Most of those wolves were killed, not by the firecrackers, but by the wolves biting each other to death. The old man told me at the time that wolves were the most suspicious, but precisely because of this, they were also the most ferocious. When the firecrackers exploded, they were everywhere. They were all frightened by the sound. They immediately suspected that everything around them was deadly. They started biting each other crazily, no matter what it was. It was really a deadly attack. In just a short time, most of them were killed. After the smoke cleared, the rest climbed over the wall and escaped. The salesman also got out of trouble." Liang Kangbo sighed: "It's just like people, often in many cases, big things are not confused, but because of some small If you fight hard due to interference, it will be the most fatal."

"It's just like the current pack of wolves, fighting to the death over some fish, forgetting the original purpose."

Lu Lu said thoughtfully: "Second brother, I just realized now that you are so philosophical in your words."

"What philosophy? Do you know who told me this story? Xu Zi from Huilongtun is afraid of Xu Pao. After hearing what he said, I suddenly realized how powerful the old five people are. They are unambiguous on big things and small things. I don't care about it, and I would rather lose money. If it weren't for you, it wouldn't be so easy for the brothers to get together.

Especially when the brothers divide things, they always do it in the open, and they also know how to exercise restraint when doing things.The brothers are older than you, but none of them are as transparent as you. If it weren't for you, the farm wouldn't have developed into what it is now so easily. Alas... I feel like my life has been in vain. "

Liang Kangbo's tone was full of emotion.

Lu Lu laughed and said, "Don't praise me to death."

"It's not flattering... If my second brother didn't say that, I still haven't figured it out. Now that I think about it, it's really like that." Zhang Shaofeng also nodded in agreement: "It's okay if you don't admire me."

Lu Lu rolled his eyes: "I feel like you are calling me so sinister. In fact, I don't think so much. I think very simply: I am for everyone, and everyone is for me. I just feel that everyone is for me." It's mutual with others. If you give first, you will always get something in return... Okay, stop talking. Listen, the bite in the forest is very strong, it's time to have a wave."

He stood up as he spoke, and with a slight gesture, Xian and Raymond each got into a car. After turning on the headlights, they saw the frantically biting wolves, and also saw several hanging wolves. Wild wolves, some wolves have even eaten their own kind.

When the car lights were turned on, Zhang Shaofeng and others shot directly at the wolves that were still biting madly.

Lu Lu and Lei Meng also jumped out of the car and started shooting.

In just a few breaths, more than a dozen wolves were shot.

The remaining wolves quickly ran into the darkness and ran away.

At that time, Lu Lu saw an extremely strong wild wolf. It was the largest wolf Lu Lu had ever seen so far.

It kept howling to the sky, but it failed to call back the wolves that jumped into the darkness. It turned back and glanced at Lu Lu, and was about to turn around and run away, but was shot by Lu Lu and killed.

The surrounding area quickly became quiet, and the flickering green light was no longer visible in the darkness.

Several people came closer and shot the bitten wolves lying on the ground. They were all a little surprised. In just a while, at least thirteen wolves were killed by cannibalism.

The wolf pack that the Wolf King finally gathered together, including those that were killed and captured, must have numbered more than 30, and most of them were lost.

"It seems that there is no need to fish tomorrow. If the car can hold these wolves, it will be almost full!"

Lu Lu laughed.

"Isn't it great? After two days, I got four thousand kilograms of fish and distributed it to the village. Each family can get a lot. You feed it to dogs and cranes. The wolf meat will also do... Okay, leave me some wolf teeth and prepare one for each of the two little guys at home to ward off evil spirits." Zhang Shaofeng said with a smile.

"Simple!" Lu Lu nodded.
Following the same pattern, the five brothers tied up the caught wolves one by one, then dragged them to the tent and put them together. The remaining wolves were all gathered together and loaded into the truck, but there was still a little less than enough to fill the truck. .

Raymond said: "It seems that we will have to set a net on the river tomorrow."

Lu Lu simply arranged the work: "The wolves probably won't dare to come tonight... Just set up two nets and drag the nets up early tomorrow morning, and that should be enough."

A few people will use flashlights to return to the river surface, break open the thin ice on the ice cave that has begun to freeze again, and then re-lay the net.

After the net was laid, Lu Lu took back the hooks used to catch wolves on a whim, hung up small fish as bait, cut a few long wooden sticks, placed them across the ice hole, and removed the hooks from the ice. It was thrown into the hole and the other end was tied to a wooden stick.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to catch any fish..."

Zhang Shaofeng expressed doubts about this.

"Try your luck. Anyway, these hooks are just idle, just in case a fish bites them tomorrow!" Lu Lu said casually.

After the net was laid, several people returned to the fire. After warming themselves, they ignited the prepared wooden pillars and put them into the tent. Several people wrapped themselves in roe deer skin mattresses and were guarded by Lu Lu, preparing to sleep.

The temperature dropped a lot at night. Looking at Yuan Bao who was shivering from the cold while sleeping next to him, Lu Lu introduced it into the tent.

The next morning, at dawn, Lu Lu, who had not yet woken up, was awakened by the shouts of Zhang Shaofeng and others outside.

He rolled over and got out of the mattress, rubbed his groggy eyes, opened the tent curtain, and saw Zhang Shaofeng and others dragging the ropes used by Lu Lu for fishing on the ice.

On the river, there were already two big fish weighing at least a hundred kilograms, and it looked like there was a third one.

He hurried over to help and saw two catfish lying on the ice.

Anchovy is a cartilaginous fish with a large body, long life, large food intake, and considerable strength. It is the largest fish among freshwater fish. It is known as the king of freshwater fish. Its meat is delicious and there are no fine spines in the meat. It is High-protein, high-fat food, perfect for winter.

Lu Lu himself didn't expect that he would actually catch a fish in the hook he put casually, and it was a big fish...

He hurried forward to help. Several people pulled the rope and tightened it appropriately with the big fish below. After struggling for a while, they dragged the exhausted big fish up from the ice hole. This was also a catfish. It's even bigger, weighing at least [-] pounds.As for the others, some of the hooks had been touched, and a few of them had their ropes broken.

However, with these three items, several people are very satisfied.
