After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

The wolves were afraid during the day and watched from a distance. The villagers didn't want to wait any longer and decided to act at night.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. There was no movement around. Only pairs of green eyes could be seen floating back and forth.

The villagers took out the few pieces of bacon they had and put them on the trap.

The wolves seemed to smell the scent of meat and didn't care whether there was any danger or not, they all ran towards this side.

The wolves in front fell into the pit before they could react. They didn't know where the splinters had stuck them and they kept struggling and howling.

A few wolves at the back stopped beside the pit and looked at their companions in the pit, feeling anxious.

There were about ten of them that fell into the pit, and more than twenty of them that were still outside.

The wolves outside became more and more anxious as they saw the wolf in the pit's breath becoming weaker and weaker, and the wolf howls were very scary.

The wolf king howled twice in the direction of the cave, and several wolves rushed directly along the aisle in the middle.

The people guarding the door were so scared that they took a step back. When they reacted, they picked up bows and arrows and shot at the wolves.

These wolves were caught off guard, injured their legs, and lost their balance, falling directly into the pit.

The wolf king became even more anxious and ran back and forth around the deep pit, as if observing something.

The wolf king was also very smart. Seeing that he could not hurt the people in the village, he directly ordered a retreat and surrounded the cave to wait for them to come out.

The people in the cave were also very anxious for a while. With so many people from the whole village in the cave, food and drink were easy to solve, but defecation was difficult to solve. The temperature was high in summer, and the smell inside was really bad.

The head of the village divided the men in the village into eight groups, each group had twenty people. There were more than twenty wolves outside, and each group had to deal with three.

There are one or two experienced hunters in each group, whose main task is to command everyone and keep them from losing their composure.

While it was still early, everyone rushed out of the cave with sickles and sticks in their hands, and the children were detained in the cave.

The man hunting wolves outside soon started fighting with the wolves, and soon screams and wolf howls were heard.

Ye Qing was also very anxious, worried about the safety of his father and brother at home.

Ye Qing followed his brothers and looked outside. Several wolves were lying on the ground without breath, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.

Ye Qing and a few others were not idle either. They were holding slingshots to distract the wolves' attention. Stones hit the wolves' bodies and legs from time to time.

The two sides fought for more than an hour before the noise outside gradually became smaller.

Most of the wolves were left behind, with only two or three escaping.

Everyone came out of the cave to help collect the wolf meat and skin the wolf, so they could sell it for money later.

Among the more than one hundred men who went out, many were injured. The most seriously injured one had his arm scratched and could not even lift it up.

There was too much wolf meat, and the outside was covered in blood. We could only skin and load the wolf meat. The bloody smell was too strong here, and if we didn't leave, it might attract tigers.

Everyone hurriedly pushed the carts along the mountain path. While it was still light, they could walk another forty or fifty miles and get away from here.

The mountain was a bit steep and there were many rocks on it. Everyone was pushing the cart and soon they were soaked in sweat. The flying dust stuck to their faces and they became covered in dust.

As the sun was setting, the village head sent a few young men to explore the way ahead and find a suitable place to rest.

The people who were exploring the way came back and said, "There is an abandoned village in front of the village. Let's go there and take a rest."

"Okay, you guys lead the way, we're going to stay for the night."

"Is there anyone here? Is there anyone in the village?" The village head called out a few times, and when no one answered, he led people in.

Everyone gathered in the village's threshing ground, which had a flat terrain and a large area.

"Li Zheng, we found a well. There is a little water at the bottom of the well, which is enough for us to drink today."

"Okay, take some people to fetch water. We'll stew some wolf meat for dinner today." The head of the village waved his hand in response.

The meat of more than 20 wolves could not be eaten in one meal. It would be a pity to waste it, and there was not enough salt to preserve it.

It takes a long time to smoke meat, and the aroma will spread far away. If other people find it, the meat may not be saved.

Ye Qing suddenly thought of the charcoal kiln that his family had built before. He could make a small one and use it for barbecue. Many people in the village knew how to make charcoal, so barbecue was not a problem.

The temperature of roasting wolf meat should not be too high, otherwise it will burn.

Ye Qing expressed his thoughts, and everyone who had been thinking hard felt happy.

Li directed several women in the family, some cutting the meat and some washing the meat.

The men in the village began to build charcoal kilns, and the children went to collect firewood.

With this solution, the villagers no longer feel tired.

The Zhou family was asked to knead the wolf skins, which could be used to make clothes in the winter or sold for money.

Ye Qing followed the older children to collect firewood. They found a dead tree that was one or two years old. Several children cooperated with each other. Some pressed down the tree tops, while others cut the roots. Soon they had felled a tree.

Soon, hundreds of kilograms of meat were cut into small strips and sent to the charcoal kiln for arrangement.

The rest is handed over to experienced old people, who will keep the temperature inside constant, dry out the moisture, and make it into jerky.

After working all night, they finally roasted the meat. They divided the meat among the families, and each family who participated in the wolf hunt received half a wolf skin. Then they fell asleep.

Everyone slept until mid-afternoon, then got up to continue processing the unwanted parts of the wolf, burying them directly in the soil.

Originally, everyone was reluctant to throw it away, but now there is not enough water to wash it clean, so they can only bury it with tears.

The villagers had fought with wolves for a long time the day before and roasted wolf meat all night. Although they slept all morning, they still couldn't rest, so they decided to stay another night and set out again early the next morning.

The next morning, the villagers began to clean up the stoves. The meat was roasted very dry and could be kept for a long time, so they hid it and saved it for future use to replenish their bodies.

The weather was too hot, and the wounds of several seriously injured people began to fester. There was no one in the village who knew medicine, and the only doctor at the time followed a wealthy family in the city.

Ye Qing only knew that dandelions had anti-inflammatory effects, so he took a few children to dig a lot of them, boiled them in water and fed them to the men. He also boiled mugwort leaves in water and used it to wash the wounds to reduce inflammation and sterilize.

Everyone pushed their bikes and started walking before the sun rose. There were many trees and shady places in the mountains, so it was much more comfortable than walking outside.

But you still need to take a rest under the cliff at noon, as the sun is too strong and you can easily get heatstroke.

The villagers discussed walking at night and resting during the day, which would be more comfortable, but after walking once, everyone changed back. The mountains were too dangerous at night, the mountain roads were steep, and there were wild animals.

The sun was getting bigger and bigger. It was already September, and still not a drop of rain had fallen. Ye Qing and his companions had been walking in the mountains for more than a month and could not find any water. Fortunately, Fengcheng was almost there and the city wall of Fengcheng could be seen from afar.

We imagined going to the city to drink plenty of water and then buy some buns to eat. We were so happy thinking about it that we all felt full of energy.
