Chapter 107 Yushanjiang's Territory When Li Long came to the mountain again on his bicycle, he was surprised to find that Yushanjiang was also at Halimu's winter home. Yushanjiang came here on horseback, and Li Long carefully discovered that he must have dragged a few pieces of wood because there was a long trail leading from his winter home to this side. "You can follow Yushanjiang to have a look today." Halimu said, "I still have some things to do here. I have told you almost everything I know about the area nearby. You need to discover the rest by yourself." "Do you need my help?" Li Long asked. "No, no, no, no need. Just a little bit at a time." Halimu said with a smile, while using his fingers to indicate a little bit at a time. Li Long did not hesitate to leave his bicycle at Halimu's place, picked up his semi-automatic rifle and followed Yushanjiang to his place. The straight-line distance between Dongwozi in Yushanjiang and Halimu is actually only five or six kilometers at most, but because of the ravine, the road is up and down, so it feels farther. This place is located southwest of Halimu Dongwozi, deeper into the mountains. Because the mountains to the north of Yushanjiang Dongwozi are quite undulating, and the mountains are mostly pine, cypress or shrubs, with few grasslands. "I heard from Halimu that you encountered a lone wolf today?" Yushanjiang suddenly asked, "Do you want to fight the wolf?" "Yes, I really want to kill that wolf." Li Long said, "I always feel that the wolf has a grudge against me. I have encountered it several times." "If it keeps following you, then we can ambush it tonight and release the sheep outside. If it dares to come over, we can kill it!" said Yushanjiang.
Is this a bait? Will the wolf be fooled? Li Long couldn't guarantee it. "Okay." He nodded. No one would feel at ease if there was a haunting wolf wandering in the mountains. "I'll take you to some places where there are wild animals first. There are red deer here." Yushanjiang grinned, led the horse, and took Li Long westward. When they reached a small ravine, Yushanjiang stopped and pointed at the stream and said: "We picked up our jade from here." Li Long took note of this place. Part of the water in this small stream was still flowing and steaming. Is there a hot spring up here? Li Long walked over curiously and touched the water. It was really warm! "There are hot springs up here, but they smell bad." Yushanjiang saw that Li Long was interested in the water and said, "But our elders said that if you have skin problems, it's good to soak in it." It must be a hot spring. Li Long thought he could come here to soak in the hot spring in the summer and bring his family with him. Walking further west, before entering a ditch, Yushanjiang tied the horse at the entrance of the ditch, and then took Li Long into the ditch. After walking more than 200 meters inside, he stopped. "Slow down, go over quietly, there is movement." Li Long was busy walking, grunting and panting, and didn't hear anything. Now, after hearing what Yushanjiang said, he immediately stopped. Brother Yushan Jiang is also an old hunter. Yushanjiang walked slowly in, and Li Long followed quietly from behind. After walking about ten meters, Yushanjiang stopped again and pointed forward. Li Long walked over and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and then saw in the distance, almost at the bottom of the ditch, more than a hundred meters away, a male deer with horns on its head was chewing on the bushes. The distance was a bit far, and the bushes were quite tall, which would block the deer's figure from time to time. Li Long took down his gun and took aim. The deer kept moving and it seemed he couldn't hit it. He was about to walk forward, but at this moment, the howling of wolves suddenly came from the mountains again! The stag seemed to be struck by lightning. After hearing the wolf's howl, it immediately rushed into the mountain and soon disappeared into the bushes. Li Long was so angry that he wanted to curse! Damn, this wolf is really haunting me! "It's okay. We'll stay at the winter den tonight and use sheep to lure the wolves over." Yushanjiang comforted him, "As long as we kill this wolf, it will be easier for you to hunt later." "Okay." Li Long was determined to catch the wolf, otherwise he would not have peace for the next year.
After leaving the gully, Yushanjiang hurried back, and fortunately found that the horses at the gully were fine, and the wolves didn't seem to come here. He took Li Long to another place, where wild boars had appeared before, but the traces were from several days ago, and the snow that was waded through had hardened, so at least the wild boars hadn't appeared in the past two days. "There are medicinal herbs in there," Yushanjiang pointed to another ditch and said, "You can go and have a look. In the past, there were also Han people who came here to dig medicinal herbs, such as Fritillaria." Fritillaria? Then you can come and see it in April or May. In the ranch area where Yushanjiang is located, there are red deer, roe deer, wild boars, wolves and big-headed sheep. But today my luck was not very good. Apart from the red deer, I didn’t encounter anything else. The sun was about to set, and Yushanjiang led the horse and took Li Long towards the winter den. He said again that he would help Li Long kill the lone wolf at night. Li Long looked around and thought that the wolf might be observing him on a hilltop. Li Xiangqian, the purchasing manager of the supply and marketing cooperative, hung up the phone, touched his head and looked worried. Xiao Huang, a purchasing agent in the department, looked at Li Xiangqian's worried look, came over and asked with a smile: "Chief, what problem have you encountered? Can you tell me? Maybe I have a solution." "You have no solution at all." Li Xiangqian cursed, "Don't I know your incompetence?" "Chief, one person's plan is short and two people's plan is long. How can I know if you don't tell me? Besides, even if I can't solve it, maybe I can find someone who can solve it?" Li Xiangqian knew that Xiao Huangbao was a good snoop and was good at scheming, so he was a good candidate for purchasing. He said: "There's a leader at the regional supply and marketing cooperative who wants to get antelope horns. Can you get them?" "Of course we can't get them. We don't have antelopes here." When Xiao Huang said this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "I think we can buy them at the drugstore, right?" "They want the whole one. The pharmacy only has cut ones." Li Xiangqian shook his head. "As for this antelope... I'll ask Lao Chen." He picked up the phone and dialed. "Old Chen, what good things have you received recently?" "What good stuff can it be? It's nothing more than antlers and deer antlers. How come you, a busy man, remembered to call me?" "I've run into a problem, so I want to ask your brother for advice—" "You tell me." Chen Hongjun said with a smile, "If I know, I will definitely help you." "My boss wants a whole antelope horn. Is there any way to get it? I can give you a high price." "Antelope horns? Which kind of antelope? There are so many kinds of antelopes." "What kind do you have here?" Li Xiangqian felt hopeful. "Tell me about it?" "I don't have any of them." Chen Hongjun smiled. "Then what did you say?" Li Xiangqian immediately lost his temper. "I thought you had it." "I don't have it, but I know where I can find it." Chen Hongjun's words gave Li Xiangqian hope again. Where can I find it? (End of this chapter)
