Chapter 21: Caught a Pheasant
Militia member Yang Tieqiang got up, immediately went to a trap, caught the trapped rabbit, and put it directly into his basket.
Then they continued to set up the rope.
When Yang Tieqiang returned, he proudly shook his basket.
"Captain, we've caught a wild rabbit."
Zhang Li'an nodded, then looked at Zhang Yun and Zhang Jiwu and laughed, "You two are really good at this, catching a wild rabbit so quickly."
No sooner had they finished speaking than the five of them heard the sound of a wild rabbit struggling and branches swaying in the distance.
"here we go again!"
Militia member Sun Wenjie wasn't going to let Yang Tieqiang have all the credit, so he immediately rushed out and soon caught a wild rabbit as well.
Just as Sun Wenjie was about to report, the sound of tree branches swaying came again from afar.
"It's my turn!"
Yang Tieqiang immediately took off running.
Immediately afterwards, the two militiamen, Sun Wenjie and Yang Tieqiang, seemed to be performing a show, running back and forth, or perhaps trying to show off their merits in front of Zhang Li'an. They took turns running out and back, bringing back a wild rabbit each time.
Zhang Li'an was completely numb.
"There are so many wild rabbits on this mountain..."
Zhang Li'an was indeed shocked. He knew that there were a lot of wild rabbits in the mountains, but it was impossible for them to be concentrated in one place like this.
The two militiamen have already made fifty trips back and forth.
This means that the two have caught more than 50 wild rabbits.
"I can't run anymore."
Sun Wenjie was panting heavily.
"I really can't run anymore."
Yang Tieqiang lay down on the ground without hesitation, saying excitedly but weakly.
These two were really exhausted from all the back and forth trying to perform.
Perhaps the scent of the sacred spring had disappeared, for there was no sound from the rope trap.
However, other calls came from the woods in the distance.
'Ko, Do, Ra...'
Upon hearing the sound, Zhang Jiwu became excited and immediately exclaimed, "That's the call of a pheasant!"
Upon hearing the word "pheasant," Zhang Li'an's throat visibly moved, clearly indicating that he had once enjoyed the delicious taste of pheasant, and he instinctively swallowed.
Zhang Yun thought to himself that perhaps the pheasant sensed the lingering scent of the spiritual spring and ran in this direction. But now that the scent of the spiritual spring had disappeared, the pheasant seemed confused and began to call out.
In the mountains and forests, pheasants are more alert than rabbits. They are extremely cautious, and it is generally difficult to hear their calls, making it difficult for people to find their tracks.
Wild pheasants are much more delicious than domestic chickens, and their meat is so tender it melts in your mouth.
The main reason is that pheasants live in the mountains and forests, where they not only eat insects but also often nibble on some medicinal herbs, giving their meat a natural medicinal aroma.
In his previous life, Zhang Yun had eaten pheasant once after going into business, and the taste of that pheasant was truly unforgettable.
"Captain, this pheasant is very rare. Brother Sun and Brother Yang are too tired to move. Let's go and hunt this pheasant."
Zhang Yun immediately made the suggestion.
Zhang Li'an thought for a moment. The five of them were still in Songshu Mountain. The forest here was not dense, so they would not get lost and could easily find their way back.
"Okay, the three of us will circle around and form an encirclement."
"I want to emphasize that it's good if you can catch it, but if the pheasant escapes, never chase after it alone. All kinds of wild animals may appear in these mountains. You only have one life, so safety is the most important thing."
Zhang Li'an spoke very seriously.
Pheasants are delicious, but you can't risk your life for them.
"clear."
Zhang Yun and Zhang Jiwu immediately agreed.
So the three of them followed the direction from which the pheasant's sound came and went in a roundabout way.
If you run towards it head-on, the pheasant will hear the noise and turn around and run away.
After Zhang Yun was out of sight of Zhang Jiwu and Zhang Li'an, he set up a rope trap under a tree and then threw a handful of spiritual spring water onto the hook of the rope.
Immediately, Zhang Yun hid ten meters away, concealing himself under a tree, where the pheasant would definitely not be able to see him.
Before long, Zhang Yun's hearing clearly detected the sound of something rapidly moving through the grass and trees coming towards him.
Zhang Yun's face immediately lit up with anticipation.
Before long, a pheasant came to the snare. It had bright green feathers on the top of its head, bright red combs on its cheeks, dark green neck with white rings, a glossy purple-gold chest, bright green back, horizontal stripes on its wings, and long, thin tail feathers with black horizontal stripes. It looked very beautiful.
This is a male pheasant.
It is smaller than an adult domestic chicken and weighs only about 3 pounds.
The male pheasant smelled the scent of the spiritual spring and instinctively looked around. Finding nothing unusual, it relaxed completely, stretched its neck, and came to the vicinity of the snare. Then it began pecking at the ground, trying to draw out the spiritual spring that had seeped into the earth.
At one point, the pheasant pecked at the hook on the snare rope. The bent branch sprang up instantly, pulling up the snare. Before the pheasant could react, the snare rope tightened and caught the pheasant's neck.
"It's in hand."
Zhang Yun's hearing was incredibly sharp; he immediately sensed the pheasant's flapping sound, excitedly jumped out, and rushed to the trap in just a few steps.
Immediately, Zhang Yun grabbed the pheasant's wing, untied the rope, and with a thought, the pheasant was stored in the spiritual spring space.
Upon entering the spiritual spring space, the pheasant immediately landed on the same plot of land it had initially been on.
In this spiritual spring space, there are a total of two acres of land. On the original one acre, there are sweet potatoes, 100 frogs, a wild rabbit, and a pheasant.
The numbers above the boulder have changed.
Acceleration Points: 0.1
It's only 0.03 more, which means this pheasant weighs 3 jin (1.5 catties).
"These pheasants like to eat insects and medicinal herbs in the mountains. If we find any medicinal herbs along the way on this trip into the mountains, we can transplant them into the spiritual spring space. We can also raise pheasants in the space in the future."
Zhang Yun couldn't help but imagine a beautiful vision: pheasants roaming in abundance, so he could take one out whenever he wanted to eat it.
"Of course, that is, on the condition that we catch another female pheasant."
Zhang Yun gave a wry smile.
However, Zhang Yun also knew that these pheasants were gregarious animals. Since there was one pheasant here, it meant that there must be a flock of pheasants in this pine mountain.
Because of Zhang Li'an and others, Zhang Yun cannot act alone and cannot go to catch the pheasant flock.
Just as Zhang Yun was lost in thought, a gunshot suddenly rang out in the distance.
In an instant, Zhang Yun realized that it must have been militia captain Zhang Li'an who fired the shot.
"Could it be..." Zhang Yun said excitedly.
Not far away, Sun Wenjie and Yang Tieqiang, who had been resting, immediately stood up when they heard the sound. They gripped their rifles tightly, ignored the two baskets on the ground, and ran directly in the direction of the gunshot.
Naturally, Zhang Yun immediately ran over as well.
