Chapter 1460: The Feeling of Being Yin and Yang

On this day, Zhao Jun was really tired from traveling and catching pigs. He lay down on the bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

He had to leave early the next day, so just after five o'clock, Zhao Jun heard movement in the outer room and opened his eyes.

At this time, Xing San had already woken up, and the old man didn't move just because he was afraid of waking up Zhao Jun.

Seeing Zhao Jun sit up, Xing San, who was already dressed, went to the ground directly.

It was just after five o'clock, and it was not yet bright outside, but after Zhao Jun sat up, he saw bright light outside the room through the curtains.

Zhao Jun opened the curtains. There were no lights in the room, but there was light outside. Zhao Jun could clearly see a lantern hanging on the double-stranded No. 8 wire hanging clothes outside.

Under the lantern, something was gurgling in two large pots.

In front of the big pot, Zhao Youcai held the handle of the shovel with both hands and used the small shovel to turn over the contents of the big pot.

The lantern light was dim, and Zhao Jun didn't even see what Zhao Youcai was doing.

At this time, Xing San also noticed something happening outside the house. He got up on the kang and came to the window. He looked at Zhao Youcai who was busy outside and said, "What delicious food is your dad planning this early in the morning?"

Xing San knew that Zhao Jun's family always ate and drank, which may have been inherited from Zhao Jun's grandfather. But it's not yet dawn, and the landlord's house doesn't have a banquet so early?

"Third uncle..." Hearing Xing San's words, Zhao Jun was a little speechless, but when he thought that this old man had not lived down the mountain for many years, he explained to Xing San: "That is not for us to eat."

"Ah?"

"Ah..." Xing San finally realized what he was doing, and said to Zhao Jun: "Boy, please leave the house alone while your father and I go to feed the animals."

After saying that, Xing San put on his cotton-padded jacket and dog-skin hat and went out.

Zhao Jun folded the quilt and piled it into a quilt. When he walked out of the room, he saw Wang Meilan rolling out noodles there.

Use a rolling pin to roll up a large piece of dough. This is for hand-rolled dough.

Seeing Zhao Jun come out, Wang Meilan said: "Son, get up. There is hot water in the thermos bottle. You can wash your face with the cold water and put it on the table for dinner."

"Hey!" Zhao Jun agreed, walked to Wang Meilan, looked out the window and said to Wang Meilan: "Mom, why is my dad running outside to get food?"

"One pot can't fit in it." Wang Meilan smiled while rolling out the dough: "It feeds both dogs and pigs."

"Okay." Zhao Jun also smiled and said, "My dad will do this, so I won't have to do it for my mother and I."

Hearing what Zhao Jun said, Wang Meilan stopped what she was doing, glanced at Zhao Jun, and said with a smile: "You think it's good (jiǎo), your father is scolding you."

"Ah?" Zhao Jun was stunned and said confidently: "Why is he scolding me?"

"I welcome you to buy a pig." Wang Meilan said: "Last night when you came back to the house, he was scratching his head. When he got up in the morning, he was scratching his head again."

At the beginning of yesterday, Zhao Youcai pretended to be aloof. After negotiating the terms with Wang Meilan, he stopped being aloof and started to talk nonsense.

"Mom, you didn't quarrel with him?" Zhao Jun asked after hearing this, but Wang Meilan continued to roll out the dough and said, "How dare I? Now they work for us at home every day. After we quarrel with him, what will happen to them again?"

Hearing what Wang Meilan said, Zhao Jun felt that it made sense.

More than ten minutes later, when Wang Meilan started cutting noodles, Zhao Youcai came back.

"Where's Brother Xing?" Wang Meilan asked hurriedly when Zhao Youcai came back alone.

"Go to the latrine." After Zhao Youcai finished speaking, he took off his gloves and walked to the door of the west room. He leaned his back against the door frame and glared at Zhao Jun in the room.

"Huh?" Zhao Jun was startled and blurted out: "Dad, what happened again?"

"What happened? Ha!" Zhao Youcai sneered and said, "Let me see the one who makes a lot of money."

Zhao Jun: "..."

Generally speaking, yin and yang does not contain any curse words, but it is more uncomfortable than swearing because being yin and yang makes one's heart feel clogged.

At this time, he had to speak, so Zhao Jun stood up and said to Zhao Youcai: "Dad, isn't it our family's enjoyment of the money I make?"

"Enjoyment won't cost you..." Zhao Youcai said this. Zhao Jun quickly interrupted him and said: "Dad, why don't you just support me to buy two pigs? It's Chinese New Year, let's all eat and drink together. Okay, isn’t that good?”

"Why can't we eat wild boar meat?" Zhao Youcai said: "I'm so crazy about you today because you think wild boar meat is thin. Then before the difficulties, who did you eat less than?"

"Huh?" Wang Meilan cut her noodles with her kitchen knife. She was keenly aware that Zhao Youcai's firepower was also covering her.

"Dad, look." Zhao Jun tried to reason with Zhao Youcai and said, "You also said that it was before the difficulties, so are our conditions bad now?"

"Okay, you're going to be in trouble?" Zhao Youcai asked back, "I didn't have any money a while ago. How uncomfortable does it feel to borrow money from others?"

Zhao Jun was stunned by Zhao Youcai's question. Seeing that Zhao Jun didn't speak, Zhao Youcai took advantage of the victory and pursued him: "In the first two days, we were still arguing that we didn't have enough money. This team will give you money in advance. When you have money, you can go ahead."

"I..." For a moment, Zhao Jun was speechless.

Today, Zhao Youcai was uncharacteristically and gained the upper hand in the argument with Zhao Jun. But it was not that his words slipped away, but that he grasped the truth.

Diligence and thrift are always the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation!

Zhao Youcai held two labor protection gloves in his right hand, raised his finger and pointed at Zhao Jun, saying: "If you have money, you will be a prodigal. If you don't have money, you will be stupid."

"Keep your eyes peeled!" Wang Meilan couldn't bear it any longer. She slapped the kitchen knife on the panel and shouted to Zhao Youcai in a low voice: "We'll kill the pig if you can, but don't eat it."

"Why shouldn't I eat?" Zhao Youcai scratched his neck and said, "I work for you like a dart every day, why shouldn't I eat?"

"You..." Wang Meilan was speechless for a moment, her chest heaving violently, but what Zhao Youcai said was reasonable. She wanted to reply but couldn't say anything.

Zhao Youcai, who had won a great victory, felt very happy in his heart. He reached into his pocket and found that he didn't have a cigarette, so he opened the door and entered the east room.

Zhao Youcai is beautiful, but Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan are very angry.

"Clang, clang, clang..." Every time Wang Meilan cut the noodles, the sound of her knife hitting the panel was louder than before.

On the kang in the west room, Zhao Jun sat cross-legged in front of the kang table. His cheeks tightened, and he picked up bullets one by one from the kang table and stuffed them one by one into the magazine with great force.

The cooked hand-rolled noodles are poured into cold water and put into a large bowl. Spread in two spoons of egg sauce, pour a spoonful of chili oil, then add a chopstick tip and shredded rock sugar radish, blanch, cool, dry and cut into pieces. Small pieces of frozen cabbage.

Just mix the noodles with the sauce and vegetables, take two bites of it, and then bite into a garlic clove, it's really delicious!

Zhao Youcai and Xing San sat opposite each other, each holding a large bowl, and both ate two large bowls.

Zhao Jun also ate two bowls, but he breathed out while eating and felt uncomfortable in his stomach after eating.

"Son, have you finished eating?" At this time, Wang Meilan happened to come in from the outhouse. Seeing Zhao Jun put down his rice bowl, Wang Meilan asked Zhao Jun: "How many kilograms of pancakes can I bring up the mountain?"

"You have to take her, Mom." Zhao Jun said, "We may not be back early today."

"Son." When Wang Meilan heard this, she quickly stopped Zhao Jun and said, "Listen to what mom told you, if you can hit me, hit me, and if you can't hit me, I'll knock you down. If that doesn't work, let's go to Xishantun and buy two live roe deer. That's okay." What's going on? Don't be so tired. You'll be back soon, you hear me?

"You're not tired, why are you tired after this?" Zhao Jun turned his face slightly, glanced at Zhao Youcai from the corner of his eye, and said, "We are happy to go up the mountain. The day after tomorrow will be the New Year, and the year before tomorrow will be today and tomorrow."

As soon as Zhao Jun said this, Zhao Youcai, who was holding up his bowl of noodles with his head raised, paused for a moment, then slowly put down his rice bowl and stared at the back of Zhao Jun's head with his small eyes.

"That's okay." Wang Meilan smiled and said, "Then you go, I won't bring you food after lunch."

As soon as Wang Meilan finished speaking, two dogs barked outside the house, and Wang Qiang came carrying his own semi-automatic tree.

As soon as Wang Qiang entered the house, he asked Zhao Jun: "Nephew, what are the arrangements for today?"

Hearing Wang Qiang's words, Zhao Youcai glared at him fiercely. When this old boy followed him up the mountain, he ordered everyone to stay silent. He had to have eight hundred words to deal with him. When he went up the mountain with his eldest nephew, he was so obedient.

"Uncle, please remember the time." Zhao Jun smiled and said to Wang Qiang, "Didn't I tell you to come over at eight o'clock?"

"Ah?" Wang Qiang frowned and said, "You didn't say you would leave at six o'clock?"

"That's me and my third uncle. We'll leave at six o'clock." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "We have to go up to the back of Yingbei Mountain first, to the top of the beard ditch where the cow's big eyes were, and to remove the stone from the big leather cage. "Tangdaili."

"Ah..." Wang Qiang closed his eyes and murmured: "Then why do I remember that you asked me to come over at six o'clock?"

"You must have been confused after drinking last night." Xing Sanyi pointed at Wang Qiang and said with a smile: "I didn't let you drink anymore. What did you say?"

"Really?" Wang Qiang pursed his lips and said to Zhao Jun: "Nephew, I'm here now, so I'll go with you."

"Uncle, it's time for you." Zhao Jun said, "You stay at home for a while, and then you go with Baoyu and Xiaochen. You can still help them manage the dog group."

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

"Ah... okay then." Wang Qiang said, taking the gun off his shoulder and putting it on the table against the wall. Then he took two steps back and came to the edge of the kang.

"Brother-in-law, please go in." Wang Qiang reached back and grabbed Zhao Youcai. Regardless of how Zhao Youcai pinched him with his little eyes, Wang Qiang sat down next to Zhao Youcai, reached out and took the Shilin smoke that Zhao Youcai had placed on the Kang table. .

"Son, here are the pancakes for you." At this time, Wang Meilan came over with a dough bag and handed it to Zhao Jun.

Zhao Jun took it and stuffed it into his shoulder bag. After bringing supplies and ammunition, Zhao Jun and Xing San said goodbye to Zhao Youcai, Wang Meilan, and Wang Qiang, and each carried a semi-automatic tree on his back and walked out of the house.

Seeing Zhao Jun wearing the clothes he wore for climbing the mountain, the hunting dogs in the courtyard instantly became excited. They grunted and jumped up and down one by one, trying to attract Zhao Jun's attention.

Zhao Jun walked into the warehouse and pulled out a large sack.

The sack was almost full, and the things inside had edges and corners that stretched the sack open.

Zhao Jun pulled the sack and heard a squeak inside, as if something was calling.

Zhao Jun walked out of the yard, opened the back of the jeep, and placed the sack firmly inside.

Zhao Jun turned around and saw Xing San standing next to the car. He waved to Xing San and said, "Third uncle, get in the car!"

The old mountain dog who used to be unscrupulous was now standing beside the car at a loss. When Zhao Jun called him to get in the car, Xing San sighed and said, "I never thought that my old man would be able to sit in this car in this life."

"Oh!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Jun went over to open the passenger door and helped Xing San get into the jeep.

It was still dark outside. Zhao Youcai, who was sitting on the kang in the west room of the Zhao family, had been looking out the window. When he saw the lights on, he muttered, "This prodigal son is driving a car to the mountains!"

"Brother-in-law." Wang Qiang put out his cigarette butt and said to Zhao Youcai, "The car has been bought, and we don't have to spend money on oil. Why don't we keep it?"

Zhao Youcai certainly knew this truth, and he was not nagging because Zhao Jun drove a car to the mountains, but simply envied Zhao Jun for being able to go up the mountains.

In response to Wang Qiang's retort just now, Zhao Youcai, who had defeated Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan this morning, said, "The car is so bad, what about the pig?"

"What?" Wang Qiang was stunned. He didn't react at all. How did he suddenly talk about the pig again?

Then, Zhao Youcai pointed to the rear window and said, "Why buy that pig? Can't we eat wild boars caught in the mountains..."

"Are you done yet?" Wang Meilan appeared at the door and interrupted Zhao Youcai, saying, "You've been dawdling all day, and you've made a mess!"

Zhao Youcai: "..."

...

The jeep left the village and entered the mountain field, heading all the way to Yingbei Mountain.

After more than 40 minutes, Zhao Jun saw Yingbei Mountain.

Zhao Jun was still very familiar with this mountain field. Last year, he had killed the pig god and slaughtered pigs here, making a great name for himself.

Bypassing Yingbei Mountain, Zhao Jun drove into the forest class and drove along the sled road all the way.

"Boy, this car is great!" Xing San, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said, "It's much better than the big Liberation."

"Yeah." Zhao Jun laughed, "If the sled can go, it can go."

"Great!" Xing San smacked his lips and suddenly said to Zhao Jun, "Boy, you were not at home that day, I told your father and your mother."

"What's the matter, Third Uncle?" Zhao Jun asked, Xing San said, "We will live in that room, and the ginseng on the cabinet will be given to you. You can keep it or sell it. It's up to you."

"Okay, Third Uncle, I know." Zhao Jun didn't say anything polite to Xing San and agreed immediately.

Continue to drive up until the end of the sled road, Zhao Jun stopped the car.

The two got off the car, Zhao Jun dragged the sack, and walked up with Xing San. From getting off the car to passing through a fish-scale pine forest, Zhao Jun and Xing San walked about a mile and a half.

The mountain is very high, and now the two are still some distance away from the stone pond belt on the top of the mountain.

There is a saying that goes "unfrequented"!

Here, even birds and animals are almost extinct.

In such a high mountain, the wild animals that move around are nothing more than those few.

The three major cats, tigers, leopards, and lynxes, plus brown bears, sables, and red deer.

Tigers, leopards, and lynxes are relatively rare, but there are quite a few brown bears. But now it is winter, and the brown bears have long been hibernating in the warehouse.

There are also quite a few red deer, but in winter, red deer feed on poplar bark. There is no poplar forest nearby, so there are no red deer.

In other words, the large area from the top of the mountain to the bottom is the activity range of sables.

And then, as Zhao Jun and Xing San walked up, they also confirmed what they said just now. In addition to a few footprints left by people, there is only one kind of animal footprint nearby, that is, sable.

"This is a treasure land!" Xing San looked around and said, "Such a large mountain field, only sables are left in winter."

"Yeah!" Zhao Jun nodded and said, "I've always said that Shibao Peak always has a lot of scratches every winter."

"Yeah." Xing San pursed his lips and looked at the small footprints on the ground. He said to Zhao Jun, "Boy, how do we put the cage down?"

The footprints of the sable came out from the stone pond in front and went all the way to the fish-scale pine forest below.

There is no way, there is nothing up there, the sable has to go down to find food.

"Let's go up, Third Uncle." Zhao Jun raised his hand and pointed to the stone pond, saying, "Follow me when you enter the stone pond, and don't step on the bald spots."

"Then I'll lead the way for you." Xing San smiled and said, "I feel that I, an old man, should have more experience than you in this regard."

"Okay, then go slower." Just as Zhao Jun was instructing Xing San, the two suddenly saw something strange on the snow in front.

They took a few steps forward and looked carefully, and Zhao Jun and Xing San's eyes lit up instantly.
