With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

As Qiangzi spoke, he picked up the knife and walked towards the elm tree.

This elm tree is full of treasures. Not only does it produce elm seeds, which are also delicious food.

Moreover, the wood is strong and can be used to build houses.

Even the bark of this elm tree is a traditional Chinese medicine. It can promote diuresis and reduce swelling. It has a good therapeutic effect on some skin ulcer infections and can also treat problems with urination and defecation.

After processing these woods and placing them in a ventilated place, you can really have some free time.

With nothing to do, Zhou Yue was eager to do something, and a bold idea kept lingering in her mind - go hunting in the mountains.

As a person who traveled from the 21st century, hunting has a special appeal to her.

The wild animals in modern forests are either rare species that are strictly protected, or are "three-protected" animals, and hunting is strictly prohibited.

Moreover, guns are controlled, and hunting is simply a fantasy.

Thinking back to the Long March, when she saw other comrades hunting in a graceful and elegant manner, she was filled with envy.

However, as a cook at that time, she was not qualified to carry a gun and could only watch.

Things are different now. Not only does she have her own gun, she also practices shooting in her spare time and has become quite accurate.

Now living in the mountains where there are many wild animals, she feels like there is a kitten scratching her heart, making her feel very itchy.

Zhou Yue is not a shy person, she will do whatever she thinks of.

During dinner, she seized the opportunity and sat next to Uncle Dong with a smile on her face.

"Uncle Dong, when are you going to go hunting in the mountains?"

When Uncle Dong heard this, he thought Zhou Yue and the others wanted to eat meat, so he pointed at the poultry in the yard and laughed heartily.

"Girl Yue, just kill any chicken, duck or rabbit in the yard that you like and eat it!"

Zhou Yue was slightly startled, and then realized that Uncle Dong had misunderstood what she meant.

She waved her hand gently and explained with a smile.

"Uncle Dong, no, I was thinking of going into the mountains to hunt some game. I want to go hunting with you guys!"

After hearing this, Uncle Dong showed a look of surprise on his face. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at Zhou Yue seriously.

"Girl Yue, hunting is not an easy thing. There are many dangers in the mountains, and there are ferocious beasts. Do you really want to go?"

Zhou Yue and Zhou Xing beside her nodded vigorously, their eyes full of desire.

"Uncle Dong, just take us there! We are all pretty good at shooting, and we won't cause any trouble!"

When Uncle Dong heard this, he patted his forehead and said with a smile.

"Haha, blame me, blame me. I forgot that you two can use guns. Let's go into the mountains together tomorrow morning!"

The next day, before dawn, around four or five in the morning, everyone got up.

They quickly packed up, took some dry food and water, and headed into the mountains.

After the last encounter with the enemy in the mountains, the villagers have not set foot in this area for many days. This is the first hunting in the mountains in many days.

This hunting team is quite large, with many people coming.

Uncle Dong Dong Sheng, siblings Zhou Yue, brother Qiangzi and two other comrades were among them.

Five or six hunters from the village also came, and Sun Daniu was one of them.

"Hehe, I haven't been into the mountains to hunt for a long time. My hands are really itching!"

Sun Daniu skillfully checked the hunting rifle while chatting and laughing with everyone with a grin.

"I haven't been to the mountain for many days. There must be good stuff in this mountain!"

The other hunter also responded with joy on his face, his eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation.

For those who make a living from the mountains and forests, every trip into the mountains is like opening a blind box, which is both exciting and joyful.

Uncle Dong's village is at the foot of the mountain. To reach the deep mountains where there are abundant wild animals and few people, we need to go.

It takes an hour or two to walk along the winding path.

Zhou Yue walked on the dark forest path. At first she was full of energy, but later her feet became more and more sore.

Fortunately, I have the foundation of the Long March, otherwise I really couldn’t bear it.

It seems that being a hunter is not easy. It takes four hours to go up the mountain to hunt and back. My calves are sore before I even start hunting.

When we arrived at our destination, the sky gradually brightened and a light mist filled the mountains and forests, as if they were covered with a layer of gauze.

After entering the mountains, you will find that the surrounding environment is quieter, and birds can be heard from time to time.

After a long journey, they finally reached their destination.

Uncle Dong looked around and then spoke to the others around him.

"You guys just walk around here first, I'll go set up some traps."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yue's originally tired eyes instantly lit up.

She originally thought that hunting meant holding a hunting rifle, keeping one's eyes fixed on the forest, and pulling the trigger at the sight of a wild animal. She didn't expect that Uncle Dong could set traps.

She couldn't wait to pull her brother and quickly follow Uncle Dong.

"Uncle Dong, can you also make traps?"

Uncle Dong nodded slightly, and the wrinkles on his face smoothed out with a smile.

"Three generations of our family have been hunters. In the past, when there were no guns, we usually made traps or used bows and arrows. Even though we have guns now, if we want to catch live prey, we still have to rely on the old method of making traps!"

As Zhou Yue listened, she nodded like a chick pecking at rice, her eyes fixed on Uncle Dong's every move.

"Uncle Dong, let's learn from you how to make traps so we can help everyone later."

Uncle Dong squatted down and slowly took out a bamboo winnowing basket from his backpack.

The winnowing basket looked delicate and sturdy, and had obviously been carefully woven.

Then he reached into a cloth bag, grabbed a handful of wheat, and spread the wheat evenly on a relatively flat ground.

"You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. If you want to catch a pheasant, you have to use wheat!"

Uncle Dong was muttering to himself while doing his work.

After putting the wheat in place, Uncle Dong gently placed the winnowing basket on top and supported it steadily with a wooden stick of appropriate thickness.

Then he picked up a slightly bent wooden stick and fiddled with it skillfully with his hands.

I saw his fingers turning the wooden stick flexibly, and soon, a trigger device that looked rough but extremely exquisite appeared before my eyes.

Uncle Dong stood up, patted the dirt off his hands, pointed at the device and said.

"Look, if a pheasant comes to eat the wheat, it will definitely step on this stick! Once the stick moves, it will knock down the stick supporting the winnowing basket, and the winnowing basket will fall upside down on the ground."

Then Uncle Dong pointed at the winnowing basket and continued.

"And I tied a stone to the dustpan with a rope. With the stone pressing down, the pheasant can't fly out no matter how hard it flutters!"

Zhou Yue and her brother stood nearby with their eyes wide open, carefully observing every detail of the trap.

"Uncle Dong, you are so skillful! This trap is so well made!"

Hearing the praise from the brother and sister, Uncle Dong scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Haha, this trap is not difficult to make, but whether you can catch it depends on luck!"
