Siheyuan: Game of Red Dust

Chapter 59 Chasing the Wild Goat

Li Weidong and his team walked to the place where they had just killed the tiger, and continued to track the wild goat along the traces of its escape.

We didn't chase them far, about two kilometers, before we saw the ten wild goats escaping, three big ones and seven small ones.

Li Weidong and his men slowly approached, and when they were about a hundred meters away, Li Weidong stopped them.

These wild goats have just been frightened and are now on high alert. If you get too close, they will probably discover you and run away.

Li Weidong whispered to them, "Watch my movements later. Kill three large wild goats. Don't kill the small ones. One for each of you. Divide them among yourselves."

I will approach from the side and you will only have one chance to shoot. After you shoot, I will rush out and catch the lamb.

Remember to watch my gestures. You only have one chance to shoot. Regardless of whether you hit the target or not, don't shoot to avoid accidental injuries."

"No, Weidong, this is too dangerous. What if someone gets hurt accidentally?" Squad Leader Wang objected.

"It's okay. I will signal you when we are 20 to 30 meters away from the herd of goats. There will be no accidental injuries at such a distance. Remember to only fire one shot." After Li Weidong finished speaking, he quietly moved to the side. He was very fast, but did not make any sound. The three people stared with their eyes wide open.

It was not until Li Weidong was about fifty meters away from the herd of goats that Squad Leader Wang woke up and hurriedly started to distribute the goats. As soon as he finished the distribution, he saw Li Weidong making gestures to them.

"Fire!"

Bang, bang, bang, three gunshots rang out almost at the same time.

Two large wild goats were shot in the head, and another was shot in the body. Of course, at such a close distance, being shot in the body by a rifle would not survive.

The moment the gunshots rang out, Li Weidong suddenly rushed towards the herd of goats. Before the goats could react, Li Weidong had already arrived.

After a quick circle among the goats, seven of them were knocked unconscious. Li Weidong also broke the neck of the still-wailing, pierced goat.

Squad leader Wang and his men ran over quickly, and by the time they arrived, Li Weidong had already tied up the lamb with a rope.

Squad leader Wang asked in surprise: "Weidong, when did you get the rope?"

"Oh, I just found it in the carriage. I thought I might need it, so I just put it in my pocket." Li Weidong said casually.

Squad Leader Wang had no doubts. After all, he always sat in the front when he came here, and even if he was sitting in the carriage, he might not notice the rope in the corner.

"Weidong, your physical fitness is really strong. I guess in this jungle, even a team of fully armed elite soldiers are no match for you." Squad Leader Wang praised.

Nan Yi and another guard nodded in agreement.

Li Weidong was immediately at a loss for words and said, "You think this is a play? You're taking on a whole team of elite soldiers? I can only handle some wild beasts in here.

"When dealing with elite soldiers, if I kill one or two, I'll be discovered. If I'm discovered again, I'll be finished off with a round of concentrated fire. I'm human, not a god, and I can't withstand bullets."

Squad Leader Wang and the others thought about it and felt that what Li Weidong said was right. However, they still praised Li Weidong's skills.

Li Weidong quickly interrupted them: "Alright, let's take it back quickly. Aren't you hungry? It's already half past one. Let's get down the mountain quickly and eat something."

Only after Li Weidong reminded them did everyone feel hungry. They had been concentrating and had not felt anything before.

Everyone started to carry the sheep. Li Weidong carried three big and two small sheep, squad leader Wang and the guard each carried two small sheep, and Nan Yi carried one small sheep, and they headed towards the foot of the mountain.

However, when we were near the place where we hunted the bear last time, we encountered two mountain deer. They might have run here because they were scared by the roar of the Siberian tiger or the gunshot.

Now that I've encountered it, I definitely can't let it go. Li Weidong dropped the wild goat, picked up his gun, and fired two shots, hitting it right between the eyebrows, and it fell down.

Then, I found out that I couldn’t get it again.

After a discussion, they decided to send Li Weidong and Nan Yi back first, and then Li Weidong would come back. There was no other way, as only Li Weidong was strong, so he had to be there anyway. Otherwise, it would take three or four trips to get the goods down the mountain.

The main reason for sending Nan Yi down was that Nan Yi had never participated in military training. If any emergency occurred, they were afraid that he would be in danger, so this was the only arrangement.

Li Weidong carried two mountain deer and two large wild goats, and Nan Yi carried two small wild goats and went down the mountain. After putting them in the carriage, Li Weidong quickly ran up the mountain again.

After a while, he and Squad Leader Wang and the others came down carrying the remaining prey.

After putting the prey into the carriage, everyone sat down, breathing heavily. Except for Li Weidong and the guards who stayed behind, who had nothing to do, the others were all exhausted.

Everyone rested for a while, then took out some dry food to fill their stomachs, regained some strength, and started chatting.

"Nan Yi, can you deal with this tiger?" Li Weidong asked.

"Who are you looking down on? I am the successor of the imperial chef! Do you know what an imperial chef is? Is there any ingredient that I can't cook? I tell you, there isn't any!" Nan Yi looked like he had suffered a great injustice.

"I didn't say meat, I meant his skin. Do you know how to do it?" Li Weidong said speechlessly.

"Oh, about this! I don't know how. I can only peel it off for you completely. I don't know how to nitrate the fur." ​​Nan Yi spread his hands.

"Do you know anyone?"

"No, but you can go to the street in front and ask, they should have it there."

"Oh, then I'll go back and ask. By the way, Nan Yi, how do you make wine with tiger bones, tiger stuff, deer blood, etc.? Do you know how?"

"I know how to do that. I have a few recipes from my master, and the wine made from them is particularly strong in certain aspects."

"When we get back, write the materials for me and I'll have Brother Wang sell them. Get as many as you can and I'll give each of you a jar."

Everyone responded in unison.

Amidst the laughter, several people got into the car and drove towards Sijiu City.

When they entered the city, passersby saw so much game on the train and looked at it with envy. However, no one came out to stop them. After all, there was a soldier with a gun sitting in each carriage, which showed that they were from the army.

The car slowly drove into Qianmen Street. Suddenly, Li Weidong saw Niu Ye in front of him. Li Weidong asked Squad Leader Wang to stop, got out of the car and shouted:
"Master Niu."

When Niu Ye heard the shout, he turned around and saw that it was Li Weidong. He said in surprise, "Hey, brother, why are you here? I heard from Boss Xu that you have been very busy recently."

Li Weidong quickly said: "Yes, today is a special case. My teacher wants something for him tomorrow, so I have to entertain him. So I went into the mountains to hunt." As he said that, he took out a pheasant and a hare from the carriage and handed them to Niu Ye.

"Uncle Niu, don't be disgusted! The others are too big for you to lift. I'll give you a bottle of good wine in a few days." Li Weidong said.

"Hey, what are you doing? Oh, brother, you are going to purchase goods! Then I won't be polite." Uncle Niu looked at the carriage full of prey.

"Uncle Niu, do you know where we can tan fur?" Li Weidong asked.

"Don't you know? Xueru Silk Shop will do! Didn't Boss Chen tell you?" Niu Ye asked in surprise.

"Uh, I guess I didn't ask. Haha," Li Weidong said embarrassedly.

"Well, Uncle Niu, I'll go to the silk shop first. We can have a couple of drinks when we have time." Li Weidong said.

"Okay, brother, you go ahead and get busy!" said Uncle Niu.

Li Weidong nodded, got into the car, and asked Squad Leader Wang to spread the silk.
