Chapter 535. Encountering a leopard on the way home
Zhao Jun and his ministers finished their meal, put down their bowls and chopsticks, and went to the West Room to change clothes.
At this time of year, the temperature difference between day and night is large in the Northeast. The temperature in mountain villages is not even ten degrees Celsius at night, while in the mountains it is only four or five degrees Celsius.
Moreover, when the mountain wind blows, the clothes and pants will be blown through.
Zhao Jun took out two pairs of thin cotton trousers from the kang cabinet and threw one of them to Jie Chen. The two of them put on the cotton trousers before wearing outer trousers.
After getting dressed, Zhao Jun opened the door and saw Wang Meilan at the door, holding a flashlight in one hand.
Wang Meilan handed the flashlight to Zhao Jun and said: "Son, mom has poured some hot water for you, and it's on the stove."
"Yeah." Zhao Jun responded, turned back into the room and handed a flashlight to Jie Chen. The two of them each carried a shoulder bag, which contained flashlights, bandages, powder, and bullets.
When they came out of the house, Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan were waiting in the outer room. Wang Meilan took a military kettle filled with hot water and handed it to Jie Chen first, then picked up the second one and gave it to Zhao Jun.

"Son!" Zhao Youcai suddenly spoke and said to Zhao Jun: "I'll go to the small shop before I leave in a while and buy more dry food."
Zhao Jun was startled when he heard this, and couldn't help secretly thinking that ginger is still spicy. Zhao Youcai did remind him that people are full, but it is still unknown whether the dogs have eaten.
If the dog hasn't eaten by this time, it will be difficult to walk.
If there are three or four dogs, if the person carries the dog for a while, and then lets the dog walk for a while, and alternates repeatedly, they can come out of the mountain.
But there are eleven dogs in this pack, and they are too much to carry.
"I know, Dad." Zhao Jun nodded to Zhao Youcai, and then said to Wang Meilan: "Mom, you go to bed early and just leave the door open for us."
"Son." Wang Meilan uneasily grabbed Zhao Jun's shoulder strap and warned, "Be careful."
"Brother!" At this time, Li Baoyu's voice came from outside the door. Zhao Jun and his ministers said goodbye to Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan, and then left the house one after another and walked out of the courtyard.
Wang Meilan stood in front of the window, looking directly outside, but there were lights in the house and it was pitch dark outside, so she couldn't see outside the house.
When Wang Meilan turned around, she found that Zhao Youcai had gone back to the house, picked up the table, and was coming out with a basin and bowls and chopsticks.
Wang Meilan blinked and looked at this scene with some disbelief. The two Gudong performed so well today. Not only did they obey and drink less, they also helped themselves with their work.
However, Wang Meilan suddenly became alert, stared into Zhao Youcai's eyes, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Zhao Youcai smiled and said, "Lan, can you give me another ten yuan?"
Wang Meilan's face darkened, and she looked at Zhao Youcai from head to toe. Seeing him looking at her with a playful smile, Wang Meilan asked lightly: "What do you want the money for?"
Zhao Youcai smiled and said: "Don't we want to celebrate the August Festival? I'm thinking of buying something and showing off some favors."
"Are you asking for a favor?" Wang Meilan raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhao Youcai and asked, "Is it your apprentice?"
Isn’t it a joke that the master and his apprentice are cheating on each other?
Zhao Youcai heard the weirdness in Wang Meilan's tone, but still said with a smile: "I'm thinking of buying something for our director?"
"Director?" Wang Meilan frowned, she was on the verge of breaking out, and said, "Don't he usually bring you things?"
This is true. In order to win over the master chef Zhao Youcai, the director of the cafeteria usually cooks some delicious food half as much as Zhao Youcai.
"That's right!" Zhao Youcai said: "People always bring us things, don't we have to give some to them too?"
"Okay." After hearing what he said, Wang Meilan nodded, pointed to the big basin in front of the dish rack, and said: "There is black blind man meat there. You can take it for him as you watch. Take more or less, you decide.
Forget it."
As soon as Wang Meilan said this, the smile on Zhao Youcai's face faltered, and then he heard Wang Meilan say: "You have picked up the table, so you can clean the bowl too."
"I..." Zhao Youcai was about to say something, but he saw Wang Meilan looking at him with a gloomy expression.
At this time, Zhao Youcai realized that Zhao Jun went up the mountain overnight, and Wang Meilan was worried about his son. It would be strange if he asked for the money at this time!
When Zhao Youcai suddenly woke up, Zhao Jun was coming out of the small store. Hearing Zhao Youcai's words, he bought more than eight kilograms of bald cakes in one go. If the dog gang had no food or drink in the mountains, they could use these dry food to satisfy their hunger.
Originally, he wanted to buy ten kilograms, but the store only had so much left.
As for stove fruits and biscuits, they are still available in small shops. But the dogs' teeth became sticky after eating those two, so Zhao Jun rounded up the remaining bald biscuits.
At the same time, deep in the mountains, on a river bank, green dragons and black dragons lay aside with bulging bellies. The remaining nine dogs, starting from the butt of the wild boar, tore the meat and shared the food.
The hunting dogs who have had enough rest need to fill their stomachs.
When hungry, there is meat. When thirsty, there is a river next to it. After eating and drinking, the hunting dogs will go behind the surrounding trees in the lee of the wind, ready to have a good sleep.
Hula la...
One after another, the old storks landed on the wild boar carcass, lowering their heads to pull the meat and peck at it.
"Woof! Woof!" Suddenly, two dogs barked, and other hunting dogs looked up in shock.
I saw the green dragon rushing next to the wild boar carcass, startling all the old birds.
"Woof! Woof!" Qinglong roared to the sky twice, then sat next to the wild boar and looked around cautiously.
The mountain wind suddenly rose, blowing the puppy's hair, but the puppy still guarded the wild boar. This was the prey it killed during the hunt, and no one could touch the wild boar except its companions and owners.
p>
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and Qinglong lay on the ground, barely sheltering from the wind and cold with his wild boar body, but he still guarded his prey.
At this time, the car had already entered the mountain field, with Jie Chen driving, Zhao Jun, and Zhang Yuanmin crowded in the passenger seat. Li Baoyu, wearing a large cotton-padded jacket, buried his face in his clothes and fell asleep on the back of the car.
The car stopped at the place where Zhao Jun and others came out of the mountain. The four people got out of the car one after another. Li Baoyu led the way with a flashlight, followed closely by Zhao Jun, Jie Chen, and Zhang Yuanmin.
The four of them jumped into the ditch and pond. When the three of them went down the mountain in the afternoon, Li Baoyu opened the way and walked up the mountain while grabbing the gangliangzi.
During the process of going up the mountain, Li Baoyu, Jie Chen and Zhang Yuanmin were all holding flashlights. Only Zhao Jun was holding his gun and looking around cautiously.
"Woo..."
"Ouch..."
"Wow..."
"Wow..."
The mountain wind howls, the night owl calls, the old bird crows at night, and the branches sway...
All kinds of sounds are intertwined. If you are less courageous, you really don’t dare to go hiking in the mountains at night.
At this moment, the black dragon sleeping under a poplar tree woke up. It opened its mouth wide and yawned, then stood up and shook its body violently, shaking off the grass blades and dust on its body.
Then, the black dragon took a step and walked back along the way.
At this time, the other dogs looked at Black Dragon, and Black Dragon also stopped, turned around and barked at them twice, but only Qinglong responded to Black Dragon.
The green dragon also wants to go with the black dragon, but it has to stay and watch the prey.
The black dragon, which was full of energy, ran back quickly. At this time, Zhao Jun and others were separated from it by a mountain.
Because it was night, even Li Baoyu couldn't walk as fast as during the day.
At this rate, it will take them at least forty minutes to reach the top of their posts.
Twenty minutes later, Li Baoyu, who was walking in front, paused, and the electric baton in his hand was instantly extinguished by him.
Upon receiving the signal, Zhao Jun raised his gun, Zhang Yuanmin, and Jie Chen both stepped forward and fired the light of their flashlights forward.
At this time, only the sound of rustling came from the post above, Zhao Jun raised his gun to the sky and shot him directly.
"Bang!"
As soon as the gunfire rang out, a dog barked in front. Everyone looked surprised. Zhao Jun even put down his gun and whistled.
Hearing the whistle, the dog seemed to be even more excited. At this time, Zhao Jun also heard that it was really the voice of the black dragon.
Zhao Jun shouted: "Black Dragon!"
Following the light of the flashlight, the black dragon quickly ran in front of Zhao Jun, lifted his body up, stood upright on his hind legs, scratched Zhao Jun's pants with his two front paws, and made a squeaking sound from his mouth.
Zhao Jun knelt down and held the black dragon in his arms. At this time, the black dragon became even more dishonest. He kept twisting his body and acting coquettishly with his master.
This process lasted for five or six minutes. Zhao Jun comforted the black dragon, touched its little head, and said: "Where are the black dragon, Qinglong and the others? Can you lead me there?"
Black Dragon can understand some simple words, such as Zhao Jun, such as Qinglong.
As soon as it heard Zhao Jun mention the word "green dragon", it started to walk to the post, but the black dragon didn't walk fast. After a few steps, it turned back and waited for Zhao Jun.
In this way, Zhao Jun and others followed the black dragon over the mountains and hills, and walked along the river.
When a group of people were about to arrive, the dog gang seemed to recognize the footsteps of their master. They stood up one after another, howling and running to welcome him.
Qinglong also abandoned the wild boar, but as soon as it ran a few steps, a group of old storks fell down with a roar. Qinglong turned around angrily when he heard the sound, and frightened the old storks away again.
Then Qinglong wanted to run towards Zhao Jun again, but after running a few steps, it stopped again, turned around and took a look. Seeing those shameless old storks falling down again, Qinglong no longer protected its flesh and just ran straight towards Zhao Jun.
Run.
At this time, Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu were surrounded by dog gangs. The hunting dogs took turns to pounce on their owners, while other dogs that were not lucky enough were just outside, shaking their heads and howling.
After appeasing the dog gang, the hunting dogs surrounded the four people and walked towards the wild boar, and Qinglong took the lead and scared away the old storks.
As early as when he saw the black dragon, Zhao Jun noticed that the little bitch's belly was so full. When he saw the wild boar, he couldn't help but be startled.
This is not a small wild boar. It is a cannon egg weighing more than 500 kilograms. It lies there motionless, with its entire buttocks gone and its internal organs hollowed out.
Look at the hunting dogs again. Many of them are covered in paint, and their bellies are full of marks left by dried mud and water. The most important thing is that the eyes of these dogs have changed.
Zhang Yuanmin discovered this first. When the hunting dog reunited with its owner just now, Zhang Yuanmin wanted to reach out and touch Big Fat's big head, but Big Fat tilted his head and gave Zhang Yuanmin a sideways glance.
Zhang Yuanmin looked at the fat man and couldn't help but said to the judge next to him: "Why are you looking at this dog with such a cross-eyed expression?"
Zhang Yuanmin's words were heard by Zhao Jun who was interacting with the dogs. He looked around and found that all the dogs had an unprecedented murderous look in their eyes.
Zhao Jun knew that his gang of dogs had completely succeeded.
Being able to kill a 500-pound boar alive here shows that this dog gang has reached the top in all aspects.
At this time, it was almost 11 o'clock at night. He was trying to pull the wild boar out, but he was afraid that he would not be able to do it. Zhao Jun hurriedly called Li Baoyu, Zhang Yuanmin, and Jie Chen, and the four of them led the dog gang down the hillside and out of the mountain along the ditch and pond.
p>
Just like that, an hour later, all four people and eleven dogs returned to the car.
Because he had to accompany the dog, Zhao Jun left Zhang Yuanmin alone as the co-pilot, and like Li Baoyu, he accompanied his hunting dog in the trunk.
Zhao Jun held the green dragon, and Li Baoyu held the black dragon. They leaned side by side, trying to doze off.
But not long after, the car braked suddenly, awakening Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu and a group of hunting dogs.
Zhao Jun returned his hand and slapped the car twice. When his palms became numb, he saw the car door open and Jie Chen and Zhang Yuanmin both got out of the car.
Zhao Jun was startled and hurriedly asked Jie Chen: "What happened?"
"There's something wrong with the car!" Jie Chen picked up the toolbox in his hand, said to Zhao Jun, and went to the front of the car to repair the car.
"Baoyu, go and take a look." Zhao Jun ordered, and Li Baoyu got out of the car and repaired the car with Xie Chen.
While the car was being repaired, Zhao Jun and Zhang Yuanmin got into the car. One sat in the cab and the other sat in the passenger seat. The two of them dozed off.
This night, Zhao Jun slept very soundly, but the car was not as comfortable as the Kang, and his neck was a little uncomfortable while sleeping. He woke up once and saw that Li Baoyu was still busy in front of the car, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
.
It wasn't until Jie Chen opened the car door and called him to come down that Zhao Jun opened his eyes in a daze.
"Is it repaired?" Zhao Jun asked casually, and then he got out of the car. At this time, regardless of whether it was repaired or not, he had to get out of the car.
If the car is repaired, he has to get out of the car and hand the steering wheel to Jie Chen. If it is not repaired, he has to walk back or whatever, he has to get out of the car.
"Brother." When Zhao Jun got out of the car, he saw Li Baoyu, who had a black mark on his face, raising his hand and pointing to the trunk. Zhao Jun knew that the car was repaired, so he and Li Baoyu got into the trunk and continued to keep company with the dog.
The car started and headed back to the village along the road. At this time, Zhao Jun felt more and more something was wrong, so he asked Li Baoyu: "Baoyu, how long did it take you to repair the car?"
"But it's been a long time." Li Baoyu leaned into Zhao Jun's ear and whispered: "His car has a lot of problems, and he is trying to make things worse. It is not easy to fix it."
Zhao Jun heard this and asked again: "How long have I slept?"
"Two or three hours?" Li Baoyu replied with some uncertainty.
Zhao Jun was stunned and subconsciously looked for the moon hidden in the night sky. Seeing that the moon was already in the east, Zhao Jun suddenly realized that it was almost dawn.
The car left the mountain field and walked along the road to Yong'an Village. At this time, Zhao Jun faintly heard the mournful music played by the trumpet, and he knew that this was the village villagers sending Zhang Zhanshan off for the last time.
"Woof! Woof!..." Suddenly there was a chaos of dog barking in the carriage, and many dogs rushed towards the railing of the carriage. While Zhao Jun was still surprised, he saw a flower shadow flash past and ran straight to the mountain next to it.
.
The car door was suddenly pushed open. Zhang Yuanmin got out of the passenger seat with a "thump", walked to the trunk, and shouted to Zhao Jun: "Brother! Leopard!"
