Chapter 221 Bison
Chapter 221 Bison
After using some vines to tie the little wild boars to a big wild boar, Liu Jingxue put them into the space and walked back.
When they were still some distance away from the camp, Tuanzi scanned and found that there was no one around, so he released the wild boar.
He walked towards the camp, dragging a big wild boar in one hand.
The noise made by the wild boar rubbing against the ground startled the people who were collecting firewood and mushrooms around the camp.
They were worried that some large animal had come, so they all came over to check.
After seeing the situation clearly, I was shocked.
"Liu Zhiqing, did you kill another wild boar?"
Liu Jingxue nodded and said, "I went to check the surroundings to see if there were any large animals, and I happened to meet this family of three.
We were worried that they would attack us while we were sleeping at night, so we killed them.”
Several people present gave her a thumbs-up.
"Liu Zhiqing, it feels so safe to go hunting in the mountains with you."
“You guys go ahead and do your work. After I send the wild boar back, I’ll have to check around again.
See if there are any other animals."
After releasing the wild boar back to the camp, Liu Jingxue went to patrol in other directions.
This time she patrolled the surroundings thoroughly and found a lot more prey in the space, some dead and some alive.
She even brought a herd of bison into the space.
You have to know that in this era, cattle were the main productive force and slaughtering them was not allowed.
Even if the production team's working ox died of old age or illness, it had to be reported.
So she has never eaten beef in all this time she has been here.
Now that there are so many cows in the space, if she reproduces them, she will be able to achieve beef freedom in the future.
But what surprised her was that those bison were no different from the cow she saw in the village, and she didn't know what breed they were.
Anyway, in that time and space, the bison she saw on TV didn't look like this.
When she returned to the camp, she dragged a few antelopes with her. After all, it was not good to come back empty-handed.
When she came back, everyone else had already returned.
Several bonfires had been lit, and even meat was being roasted and soup was being cooked.
Seeing her come back, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Uncle Ji said, "Liu Zhiqing, you are finally back.
If you don't come back, we'll all go out and look for you."
"Uncle Ji, you don't know my abilities yet, so there's no need to worry about me."
We had grilled meat with broth for dinner.
Everyone brought their own staple food, which was soaked in the hot broth and absorbed the juice, making it very delicious.
The barbecue Liu Jingxue ate was grilled by Ji Shihu. It was very delicious and made her mouth drool.
"Brother Ji, I didn't expect you to have such a skill." Liu Jingxue gave a thumbs up and praised.
Ji Shihu smiled and said, "I have been running in the mountains with my father since I was a child, and I have learned this skill since I was young.
Hunters basically all have this skill."
"Brother Shihu, you sprinkled a lot of seasonings just now. Do you bring these things with you when you go into the mountains?" Chen Guoqing asked curiously.
"That's natural."
After eating and drinking, everyone didn’t want to sleep yet, so they gathered around the fire and chatted.
Zhou Wenbing suggested, "Uncle Ji, please tell us what kind of animals there are in this mountain."
"Yes, Uncle Ji, I heard people say that if you encounter a blind bear, you can just pretend to be dead and everything will be fine. Is that true?" Chen Guoqing said.
Hearing Chen Guoqing's words, the villagers couldn't help but laugh.
"The person who said this to you must have a grudge against you."
Uncle Ji also laughed, "If you play dead when you see a bear, if it's a black bear or a brown bear, there's a small chance you can escape, but if it's any other bear, you're basically going to die.
If you encounter a bear in the wild, keep a safe distance from it, do not make aggressive gestures, and avoid making eye contact with it.
Stay calm and move sideways or back away slowly.
Remember, never turn your back on the bear and don't turn around and run away. It is impossible for a person to outrun a bear.
If a bear tries to approach you, you can scare it off by shouting, clapping your hands, or making other noises.
But don’t use any roaring sounds that might anger the bear.”
"Then if I climb up the tree, the bear won't be able to attack me, right?" Zhou Wenbing said.
Ji Shihu shook his head. “Most bears can climb trees, so climbing up a building won’t save them.”
"You two educated youth are really weird. Why do you have to pick on Blind Bear?
Those things usually live in deep mountains and won't come out easily.
We have lived in the village for many years and often go to the mountains, but we have never seen it."
"Yes, as long as you don't run to the mountains to seek death, you will never see it in your lifetime.
If you really see him alone, you are lucky.
Then this life is basically over, see you in the next life."
When everyone heard this, they all laughed.
Uncle Ji then introduced other animals in the mountains and how to deal with them.
Seeing that Uncle Ji did not mention the bison, Liu Jingxue thought of the bison in her own space and asked curiously,
"Uncle Ji, aren't there any bison in our mountains?"
"Bison, there should be," Uncle Ji replied.
Liu Jingxue continued to ask, "Do wild cattle look the same as domestic cattle?"
“In fact, the wild buffaloes in our mountains are not real wild buffaloes, but are bred from domestic cattle.
When the Japanese invaders came, many villagers took their belongings and ran into the mountains.
In order to prevent the Japanese from getting an advantage, the animals raised at home were naturally taken away.
But the Japanese chased into the mountains, and it was impossible for the animals to be as obedient as humans and not to be silent when told to do so.
Later, in order to prevent the Japanese soldiers who came into the mountains to search from discovering the villagers, the animals had to be released back into the forest to fend for themselves." Uncle Ji explained.
“Later, wild buffalo appeared in the mountains and forests around us, but in small numbers.
Nowadays cattle are the main productive force and their numbers are scarce.
Many production teams had planned to hunt bison in the mountains, but it was difficult to find their traces.
If we can find it, bring it back, and tame it, it will be a great joyous event for the village."
When Liu Jingxue heard this, she felt a little embarrassed. After all, she had brought a group of wild buffaloes into the space and wanted to kill them for meat.
Was she going too far?
Maybe there is only this group of bison in this mountain, and she has driven them to extinction.
Otherwise she would keep one pair for herself to breed and release the others.
A villager looked at Liu Jingxue expectantly, "Liu Zhiqing, you wouldn't mention bison for no reason.
Did you see any bison today?"
When the other villagers heard this, they all widened their eyes and looked at Liu Jingxue.
If they can bring back a few bison this time, they will be a great hero to the village.
Liu Jingxue felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by so many people.
She couldn't lie, so she could only say, "When I was on patrol before, I saw a few cows and planned to go and check them out, but they spotted me and ran away.
I thought it was getting late and the cow wouldn’t attack anyone, so I didn’t chase it.”
"Uncle Ji, how about asking Liu Zhiqing to take us there tomorrow morning?
Since the herd of bison appeared there, it means they often move around in that area. Look carefully and you may find them. "
"Yes, Uncle Ji, it would be great if we could catch a few cows and bring them back."
Uncle Ji was also very excited. "Okay, tomorrow morning, let Liu Zhiqing lead the way and we'll go look for it."
