[Harvest 76 catties of black muntjac, hunting attribute +0.76]

Xu Ye looked up at the prompt, then listened again.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Ruyue asked puzzledly.

She asked in a low voice, feeling that there might be some prey.

"Come with me." Xu Ye took Jiang Ruyue's hand and walked upstairs.

Jiang Ruyue followed behind Xu Ye and slowly walked upwards.

In the distance, Zhang Sanbao and the others stayed where they were.

"Brother Sanbao, why don't Brother Ye and the others reply? Is there something wrong?" Zhang Ming asked worriedly.

"What could happen? Maybe Brother Ye has found another prey." Zhang Xuefeng said calmly.

"Brother Ye's eyes are really unique. When I saw him looking in a direction, I saw a black shadow and had no idea it was a muntjac." As he said that, Zhang Xuefeng gently kicked the black muntjac on the back.

The black muntjac was not dead yet, but its legs had been tied up, so there was no need to worry about it escaping.

"Look, their flashlights are on. They must have discovered something. Should we go over there?" Zhang Xuefeng asked excitedly.

"No, if there really was a gun, they would definitely flash their lights at us or shout at us."

"Let's guard here first and be vigilant." Zhang Sanbao reminded.

Having gone into the mountains with Xu Ye so many times, Zhang Sanbao still has some tacit understanding with him.

Xu Ye brought a hunting dog and a hunting rifle, and Jiang Ruyue was by his side, so Zhang Sanbao felt very relieved.

At this time, Xu Ye took Jiang Ruyue to a valley, and then they saw some animals.

"I found a bamboo rat." He said in a low voice.

There was a bamboo forest in the valley, and Xu Ye saw several bamboo rats chasing each other.

"Your hearing is so good that you can hear from such a distance?" Jiang Ruyue looked at Xu Ye in surprise.

"Actually, no, this was not the noise I heard at the beginning." Xu Ye explained.

He was telling the truth, not trying to cover up his limited hearing.

Unfortunately, he was a step too late and did not see what animal was making the noise.

Later, he heard the rustling of bamboo, so he found the bamboo forest and saw the bamboo rat.

Holding the gun, Xu Ye aimed at a bamboo rat.

If you can hit it, you’ll have a midnight snack.

"boom!"

After aiming, Xu Ye glanced in the direction of the bamboo forest.

"It seems to have been hit. You wait here, I'll go pick it up." Having said that, Xu Ye prepared to go alone.

"No, let me go with you. I don't want to be separated from you." Jiang Ruyue followed decisively.

"Okay, when they hear the gunshots, they should know we are hunting." Xu Ye said with a smile.

Zhang Sanbao and his companions who were guarding the black muntjac heard the gunshots and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

"He shot, but I wonder what prey it was?" Zhang Ming suddenly became curious.

"It's so exciting to follow Brother Ye into the mountains. We gain a lot every time." Zhang Xuefeng bit the grass roots, looking very happy.

He has tasted what it is like to be rich and is becoming more and more keen on making money.

With money, you can buy a gun and hunt more prey.

In the future, I can build a house, marry a beautiful wife, have a bunch of children, and never worry about them having enough food to eat.

"We ourselves don't dare to go into the mountains at night. We don't have the ability to do so. Maybe, in a few years, when we have mastered our skills and marksmanship, we will be able to do it." Zhang Sanbao said with some anticipation.

While they were discussing, Xu Ye and Jiang Ruyue had already arrived at the bamboo forest and found the bamboo rat.

The bamboo rat fell not far from a hole in the ground, which made Xu Ye suspect that the hole was its nest.

So, after Xu Ye put the bamboo rat into the backpack, he took the leopard to look for another cave entrance.

Jiang Ruyue collected some bamboo leaves and piled them at the entrance of the cave, preparing to use them to smoke the bamboo rats in the cave.

The bamboo rats at home are doing well. These days, she and Jiang Ruyue went to cut some bamboos and fed them some sweet potatoes.

If we can catch some more, we can breed more bamboo rats.

Soon, Xu Ye found the second cave under the guidance of the leopard.

However, the third one was never found.

Normally, bamboo rats would hide back in their holes if they were frightened.

Xu Ye had just been lying at the entrance of the cave and had activated his maximum hearing ability to confirm that there were sounds of bamboo rats inside, but it sounded like there were not many, maybe only two or three.

So Xu Ye asked Jiang Ruyue to light the fire and try to see if he could smoke out some of it.

A few minutes later, Xu Ye heard the noise.

After everything was ready, a bamboo rat ran out.

Xu Ye lifted its tail and caught it.

"Is this bamboo rat about to give birth?" When Xu Ye picked it up, he found that the bamboo rat's belly was particularly bulging.

If it's true, then you've really made money.

After a while, another one ran out and was also successfully caught by Xu Ye.

The quick response is awesome.

Soon, the third one also jumped out and was caught by Xu Ye again.

The leopard didn't get the chance to show off and lay crouched ready to pounce and bite at any time.

In front of Xu Ye, it still hopes to perform well.

Sadly, there is no fourth one.

Smoke came out of the hole, and no other bamboo rats came out.

However, Xu Ye is already very satisfied. [Harvest 10 catties of bamboo rats, gain hunting attribute 0.01]

These bamboo rats are indeed very fat, especially the one with the little bamboo rats in its belly, which is probably more than three kilograms.

The problem right now is that there is nowhere to keep them.

Xu Ye felt a little reluctant to kill him.

Bamboo rats have very sharp teeth. If you put them in a backpack, the basket will be chewed by them.

Suddenly, the muzzles he used to use when raising dogs came to his mind.

You can weave a muzzle out of bamboo and put it on their mouths.

Or make one similar to the Elizabethan collar that animals wear when they have surgery or are sick.

As long as you have an Elizabethan collar, the backpack will definitely not be bitten.

Then you can weave a backpack with a lid, which can hold more than just bamboo rats.

Other living things can be kept in cages.

Dead prey needs to be dealt with as quickly as possible, but living prey does not need to be dealt with in a hurry.

Even if you go hungry for two days, you won’t starve to death.

After coming up with the idea, Xu Ye handed the bamboo rat to Jiang Ruyue, asked her to hold the bamboo rat by its tail, and he would cut the bamboo.

After cutting a bamboo, Xu Ye quickly shaved the branches, then carried the bamboo back to reunite with Zhang Sanbao and the others.

Seeing Xu Ye and his friends coming back, Zhang Sanbao and his friends immediately went to greet them, only to find out that the two men not only killed bamboo rats, but also caught a whole nest of them.

"You guys go collect some firewood first. I need to weave something and then take it with them." After Xu Ye said this, he cleared out the things in his backpack and took off his clothes.

When Zhang Sanbao heard this, he knew that Xu Ye was planning to take these bamboo rats back and raise them.

So they immediately took action to collect dry firewood.

"Xu Ye, this black muntjac is already dead. Don't we need to deal with it?" Jiang Ruyue asked curiously.

The last time she and Zhang Sanbao hunted a black muntjac, they went down the mountain immediately.

The main reason is that the journey is too long and we need to spend a lot of time on the road.

"Just peel the skin, and smoke the meat. Then we can go back to the village and exchange it for something else."

There was only one black muntjac, and Xu Ye didn't want to go down the mountain immediately.

If it was a takin, he would definitely throw the bamboo rats into the backpack and go down the mountain directly.

"Okay, put them in." Xu Ye prepared the clothes and was ready to cover them at any time.

Jiang Ruyue put the bamboo rat in, and Xu Ye covered it with clothes and tied it up.

Then he turned the backpack upside down on the ground.

This way, you can keep it closed longer.

If the bamboo rat really bites, it will bite the top, which will not have much impact on the backpack.

After finishing it, Xu Ye started to split the bamboo in the middle.

Jiang Ruyue looked at Xu Ye, who was shirtless, and found that his skin looked very white and tender under the moonlight.

She couldn't help but reach out and touch it to feel it.

Well, it’s indeed very tender, and feels even tenderer than the one on my body.

After a while, Zhang Sanbao and his friends came back with some dry firewood.

"Brother, do you want me to carry the black muntjac down the mountain and take it to the county town to deal with it?" Zhang Sanbao asked.

If this black muntjac is taken to the county town, it can be sold for at least eighty yuan.

After all, the skin is valuable and the meat is valuable too.

"That's fine. You'll also get a share of the prey later." Xu Ye nodded in agreement.

If you just peel off the skin and sell it, the maximum you can get is 40 yuan.

As for the meat, you can only save it for eating.

The troublesome part of hunting is dealing with the prey. After all, it takes a long time to enter the forest, not to mention taking the prey to the county to sell it.

Therefore, it is best not to kill the prey with one shot. It is most appropriate to let the prey live for a day or two after being injured.

When Xu Ye fired the shot, he didn't intend to shoot it in the head, but it just moved a little and the bullet shot into its head.

If it is hit on the neck, it can live another day or half a day.

If they wait until the animal is dying and then bleed it, they will have enough time to get it to the county town to sell it.

He thought that next time he should try to hit the limbs as much as possible, as long as the legs were broken.

This way the prey cannot escape and can live longer.

After all, what they want is no longer to use the prey as food, but to make money with it.

"You can't do it alone. If something happens along the way, you won't be able to deal with it. Xuefeng, you come with us."

"Once we get to the village, I'll ask Ruo'an to bring my cows back, and you two can harness the cart and hurry up."

"Don't worry, you two. You will also have a share of the prey that is captured later." Xu Ye gave them a reassurance.

After all, this time they came for the antelope.

The last time they hunted a takin, they made a lot of money and they became a little addicted to it.

They would certainly feel bad if they lost the income from takin by dealing with the black muntjac.

"Okay, there's someone to take care of me on the road." Zhang Sanbao was also worried about encountering any situations on the road.

So they took action immediately.

After packing up his things, Zhang Sanbao carried the black muntjac on his back.

Zhang Xuefeng carried a soil spray gun on his back, led two hunting dogs and followed, moving quickly down the mountain.

Now, there were only three of them left on the mountain, and Jiang Ruyue's heart couldn't help but become eager.
