The hunter's leisurely life begins with marrying a female educated youth.

Chapter 28 The traps are set, time for a proper hunt!

"Third Uncle, find out a few routes that wild animals have taken, and we'll set up snare traps along those routes."

Standing above the ditch, Zhang Yun thought about it carefully and came up with a plan.

With the magic spring at hand, one can lure out wild beasts at any time.

First, you need to set up traps to catch the wild animals that rush over.

It would be too dangerous for Zhang Yun and Zhang Jiwu to rely solely on brute force to kill wild animals.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jiwu immediately took the rope from his basket and began searching the surrounding mountains and forests for traces left by wild animals.

Wild animals in the mountains have a low sense of security. Generally speaking, if these wild animals return from a place they have been, they will usually return along the same route.

Over time, some traces of wild animals were left on the ground.

Zhang Jiwu was quite experienced in this area, and he quickly discovered more than a dozen areas where wild animals were active. Soon after, he skillfully set up more than a dozen rope traps.

Zhang Yun then walked down the ditch, examining its terrain.

The further down you go, the deeper the ditch becomes due to the erosion of the water, and small waterfalls can be formed whenever it rains.

At this moment, Zhang Yun arrived at the top of a ditch and stopped.

“The two sides of this ditch are completely vertical, with a two-meter height difference between the upper and lower sections. Once a wild animal falls in, it has no chance of escaping.”

"Whether you run down or climb up, there are several steps with a height difference, making this a perfect trap for ambush wild beasts."

Zhang Yun finally chose a place.

Immediately, Zhang Yun tied the rope and slid down from above.

Then Zhang Yun used his machete to strike the ground repeatedly, digging a two-meter-deep circular pit. Once a wild animal fell in, it wouldn't be able to escape.

A short while later, Zhang Yun went to a nearby sapling, cut it into more than a dozen sections, and threw them all into the pit.

They then took out a lot of spiritual spring water and sprinkled it on the branches and leaves, allowing the branches to absorb it fully.

Zhang Yun climbed up again, chose a direction, and took out a small handful of spiritual spring water along the way, sprinkling it along the path, thus forming a spiritual spring water scent belt more than two hundred meters long.

The scent of these sacred springs spreads quickly, forming the scent of sacred springs over a large area.

Thus, any wild beast that comes to this area, smelling this delightful scent, will naturally head towards the stronger aroma, eventually arriving at the water trap.

After doing all this, Zhang Yun ran towards Zhang Jiwu.

"Yun Yazi, the rope trap is all set. What's the next step?"

When Zhang Jiwu saw Zhang Yun return, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and called out with a smile.

After glancing around, Zhang Yun had Zhang Jiwu lead him on a tour, memorizing the locations of all the traps so he would have a better understanding of the area.

"Third Uncle, you go up, and I'll go down. Let's see if we can find any wild animals. Once we find them, pick up a stick and scare them away. When they're frightened, they'll run around and might get caught in the trap."

Zhang Yun said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jiwu's eyes lit up; it made a lot of sense. At the same time, he thought to himself, if all dozen or so traps worked this time and a dozen wild animals were caught, how much money could he make if he sold them at the Linshui Mine?

Filled with beautiful fantasies about money, Zhang Jiwu walked up the mountain with great enthusiasm, clearing the way with his machete, fearless.

Seeing that Zhang Jiwu had been sent away, Zhang Yun curled his lips into a wicked smile.

Undoubtedly, Zhang Yun found a seemingly reasonable excuse to send Zhang Jiwu away so that he could take out the spirit spring and then throw it around the dozen or so traps.

Having done all this, Zhang Yun walked down about 50 meters and hid behind a tree, waiting quietly.

Only about five minutes later, Zhang Yun's extraordinary senses detected rustling sounds in the woods and wild animals moving about.

Clearly, whether it was the pit trap set in the ditch or the rope trap set by Zhang Jiwu, the scent of the spiritual spring emanating from both places had already attracted wild animals in the surrounding mountains and forests.

Zhang Yun suppressed his excitement and waited patiently for a minute before running towards the rope trap.

Before he even arrived, Zhang Yun's exceptional hearing detected the sounds of several wild animals struggling and thrashing about.

After taking a few steps, Zhang Yun discovered the first trap; a rope had actually caught a grayish-white, ugly pheasant.

This is a female pheasant!

In the morning, Zhang Yun caught a male pheasant, which was very beautiful with bright feathers. The female pheasant, on the other hand, looked very plain and unremarkable.

"Now that we have a male and a female, the Spirit Spring Space can start its pheasant breeding industry."

Zhang Yun was incredibly excited.

The delicious taste of pheasants is also a great temptation for Zhang Yun. Of course, Zhang Yun will not eat these two pheasant ancestors. He will rely on them to reproduce and form a pheasant industry. Then he can achieve pheasant freedom.

"There's a male and a female pheasant here. It seems there's a pheasant brood in this area. If we can find their brood, even if we can't catch any more pheasants, getting a nest of wild eggs shouldn't be a problem..."

After Zhang Yun put the female pheasant into his spiritual spring space, he already had his eye on the pheasant's burrow.

It's not the right time yet, but Zhang Yun will definitely search this area thoroughly in the future.

Keep running upwards.

At another snare, a plump wild rabbit had its head caught in the snare, its hind legs kicking frantically, clearly in vain.

"It's a female rabbit! And she's pregnant!"

The moment Zhang Yun saw the rabbit, she noticed its rounded lower abdomen with a noticeable bulge, a sign of pregnancy.

Originally, there was only one live wild rabbit in the Spirit Spring Space, but now a pregnant female wild rabbit has been caught, so naturally the wild rabbit breeding industry can begin.

"I've heard that these female wild rabbits have two uteruses, allowing them to conceive in turn, which means they can be pregnant all year round. What's terrifying is that each pregnancy produces four or five baby rabbits, making their reproduction rate truly frightening."

Zhang Yun was excited again. He carefully removed the rope and then put the mother rabbit into the spiritual spring space.

Then, Zhang Yun's extraordinary hearing sensed that a large wild beast was struggling and leaping, making a loud noise.

"It must have caught a large wild animal."

Upon hearing the chaotic and powerful sounds, Zhang Yun immediately realized what was happening and rushed over without stopping.

Only ten meters away, Zhang Yun darted straight through, ignoring the grass and branches, and rushed over at top speed. There he saw a wild beast, about half a person's height, struggling anxiously.
