Digging out a wolf's den is neither difficult nor easy.

In the past, when the commune was still there, the wolf hunting teams were forced to rush, but they still found wolf dens one after another.

If you want to dig out a wolf den, the key is to know in advance the location of the wolf den and where it is hidden in the mountains.

The other is whether we can trap all the wolves in the den.

Wolves are very vengeful. If you cut the grass without eradicating the roots, you will easily suffer the wolf's revenge.

So in the past, as long as they knew where the wolf's den was, they would basically rush to confiscate their homes and exterminate their families.

It's not the same concept as Chen Ling's digging into the wolf's den.

He just wanted to catch a few wolf cubs and bring them back.

Besides, those wolves were still female wolves that had been mated with Hei Wa.

Therefore, there is no need to mobilize troops for this trip, and there is no need to worry too much.

Two dogs, an eagle, and a shotgun are enough.

My family also knows the situation of this wolf pack.

In the past, when the wolf den was still in the ravine of the back mountain, Chen Ling took his family to see it.

When those wolves have Hei Bao around, they are not afraid of people, nor do they show their teeth at people. They usually eat when they should, play when they should, and do their own thing without offending each other.

So don't worry.

It's just that my father-in-law will return to Fenglei Town in two days.

I heard that Chen Ling was going into the mountains to catch the wolf cub, so I wanted to go with him.

Just go, Chen Ling naturally has no objection.

So early the next morning, after breakfast, Weng and his son-in-law packed their things and set off.

The third day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar is the beginning of winter.

The air in the mountain forest seems particularly cool and refreshing.

The winding trail extends deep into the forest.

The mountains in this season are empty and quiet.

The coldness of winter has not yet officially arrived, and the withered yellow leaves have not yet fallen.

The mountains have not faded, and the forests are dyed.

The unexhausted water flow is colorful.

But it's winter after all, the weather is cold, and the mountains are no longer as lively as usual. Walking in the mountains and stepping on the thick fallen leaves, you can only hear a few birds chirping.

Insects chirped, and the little beasts that were playing around disappeared.

But it was a bit more desolate.

"Hey, Fugui, you and Uncle Cunye also got up early and went running in the mountains?"

"Yes, you guys came so early too."

It wasn't too late for the two of them to enter the mountain, but there were those who were earlier than them, a group of young people in the village. In the past two months, they had trapped squirrels and squirrels, and went to the Bastard City to sell them for a lot of money.

As soon as they saw the money, everyone became more energetic.

Judging from this situation, he came up the mountain before dawn.

They get up early to go up the mountain, and most of them come here to grab some food.

Clips and covers are harvested at night and should be collected as early as possible.

It's easy to have an accident if you close late.

"We came early, so we can't compete with you. Your dog is so powerful that it never goes into the mountains empty-handed. We often don't catch anything and go back empty-handed."

"If you don't believe it, look, I caught these little tits last night, and even the furry mice didn't take the bait."

"That's right, we've been wandering around for two or three days, and I guess we won't be able to fight as much as you coming here."

"..."

"No, it's not as exaggerated as what you said. It's winter now, and there are fewer wild animals. They don't like to come out usually, and it's hard to catch them. It's better to wait until it snows. If it snows, they will be hungry for a long time.

After a while, it’s easy to catch him.”

Chen Ling shook his head. There were a lot of wild things in the mountains this year, so everyone's harvest was pretty good.

In previous years, if you set a trap in the mountains, you might not be able to catch anything good in seven or eight days. They would only be miscellaneous mountain birds, mice and the like.

This is enough.

Having a gun and a slingshot is not necessarily better than this.

In addition, everyone is busy with various things on weekdays, and they do not just rely on hunting for a living. Their skills in shooting guns and slingshots are not strong.

Sometimes after wandering around for a whole day, it is difficult to hit even a few birds.

This is not nonsense, just go out and try it with a slingshot and you will know.

In the end, it would be better to get two ground covers and two clamps to gain more.

It's not like Chen Ling's family.

If two dogs want to catch some pheasants and rabbits, they can catch them with certainty.

Even Chen Ling, who has a half-full bottle of water, can be miles ahead of other people.

After all, who would spend as much time as he does shooting guns and slingshots?

"Fugui is right. It's easy to catch these wild things when it snows. They'll be frozen for two days and they'll be cold and hungry. Don't worry about them not coming out of their nests.

When the time comes, just scatter some food in the snow and step on the clip yourself, and it will be easy to catch it, right?"

"It's just winter now, so we have to wait until it snows."

"Yeah, you have to wait, but it's worth waiting this year. There are so many wild things in autumn. If you catch them in winter, the harvest will definitely be good."

Chat with these people for a few words.

They are still young and have little experience in mountain running.

Chen Ling didn't tell them to go deeper.

The mountains to the north are inaccessible, with a lot of prey and squirrels jumping around in the trees.

However, there were traces of lynx there, so after thinking about it, I decided not to tell them.

Although I despise small things like squirrels and civet cats, it's winter now and the chances of the beasts getting hungry are higher, so it's better not to let people go deeper.

"These wild yams are not bad. Let's dig some when we go back."

"It's grown quite big. Dad, you haven't dug any kudzu roots or wild yams here this year..."

"Hey, I'm just chatting about whether to dig or not. I'm happy enough just guarding my grandson. That little thing is nothing."

In the past, in late autumn, Wang Cunye would go into the mountains to dig for medicinal materials.

Dig gastrodia elata, kudzu root and wild yam.

Collect Schisandra chinensis, Jujube, and wild chrysanthemums.

This is the habit they have developed over the years. They pick the right medicine in each season, otherwise they will always feel empty in their hearts.

"Our wine sells well. I originally wanted to pick a few more baskets of Schisandra chinensis for you to make wine this year, but I didn't make it. It seems I have to wait until next fall."

The old man sighed and was soon attracted by the wild fruits hanging on the branches in the mountain forest.

Pointing to a few wild persimmon trees, he said: "The persimmons on these trees have not been harmed by birds. If you leave a mark, you can come and pick the persimmons in a while."

The dried persimmons formed naturally when hung on the tree are not much worse in taste than home-made persimmons.

After frosting, it tastes sweet and chewy, similar to dried sweet potatoes in texture, making it suitable for snacking.

Chen Ling walked to the tree and looked up. The skin of the persimmon was wilted and wrinkled.

"These persimmons haven't dried yet, but they've been frosted, so you can eat them now."

After saying that, he picked off a few, handed them to his father-in-law and his father-in-law, and then peeled them off and ate them himself.

At this time, the persimmons are not broken, but the water content in the pulp has become less and the sugar content has increased. There is a bright yellow candy center inside. When you break the two halves, it looks like preserved fruit. It is very sweet and delicious.

Weng and his son-in-law were eating while walking, while Heiwa was running around with Xiao Jin. No matter how big or small the prey was, he would catch it whenever he saw it.

Unfortunately, after winter, wild herbivorous animals began to move south, such as deer, deer, and barking deer, and there were fewer and fewer of them.

It takes a lot of effort for the two of them to find such big prey.

Wang Cunye picked up the prey caught by Heiwa Xiaojin into the basket and said with great appreciation: "Heiwa is so hard-working. If you change it to another male dog, after the mating, it wouldn't matter whether you have children or not."

ignore.

When my little male dog is old enough to mate with a dog, I don’t know if he can imitate Hei Wa Yicheng.”

"Well, this shouldn't be a problem. I have a good big brother to set an example for me."
