Lu Lu didn't know how much of a sensation he caused in Xiushan Tun by hacking a bear bull to death.
After breakfast early, we lit a firewood in the open space in front of the cellar. While warming ourselves, I used a dull knife to shovel the thick grease on the bearskin.
Bearskin is too big and has thick grease, unlike greyhound skins and rabbit skins, which can be finished in just a few strokes.
Shoveling grease from bear skins is definitely hard work.
After more than an hour of continuous shoveling, only half of the grease on the bear skin was removed.
He began to miss the high-pressure water guns of later generations. It only took a matter of minutes to use that thing to wash off the oily skin.
By the way, he also placed the six birch bee barrels he made by the fire, hoping they would dry faster.
Many plants and trees in the mountains are gradually blooming, and black bees are working hard to collect pollen and nectar, and they are reproducing vigorously. Around June, when the swarm reaches a certain level, they will swarm the bees.
The black bee swarms are so large that they can form several nests at a time. You can search for them in the mountains and bring some back to raise them. If you sell the honey harvested every year, you can get a lot of income.
When I met a bear bully, he actually turned back with an ax just for the sake of a puppy. His courage was extraordinary.
Especially in such a big mountain, if it stays cold for too long, the body will easily suffer from rheumatism, gout and other debilitating diseases. It doesn't feel good when you are young. But when you get a little older, it will be a disaster if it breaks out.
Not long after, two people walked up the path, and Lu Lu suddenly laughed.
Needless to say, Yuanbao is already the best leader in Xiushantun.
After working for more than an hour, he finally cleaned out the entire bear skin. After rinsing it with water, he nailed a frame to stretch it and put it inside the fairy pillar to dry. In order to let it dry faster, he also gave birth to a baby inside.
The fire adds some heat.
"Brother Lu..."
Yuanbao didn't target Chen Xiuyu, but he was targeting himself!
Hearing what Lu Lu said, Chen Xiuqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Presumably Lu Lu also understands dogs and loves dogs. Otherwise, he would not face such a life and death crisis and do something that others can only say is stupid.
There are only so many good dogs that others can find, but Lu Lu has four of them here. This kind of luck is something that I can only envy.
"I just came over to take a look!"
There are many linden trees in the mountains, as well as various flowering flowers, plants and trees. It would be no problem to set up a small bee farm in front of and behind the cellar and raise dozens of swarms of bees.
He was frightened, but the fact that he went back to save the puppy showed that Lu Lu had already come out of the fright at that time. As for sleeping that time, it was purely because his mind was too consumed.
"Isn't there a swarm of bees on the lime tree by the river where you were injured last time? I want to get them to keep." Lu Lu said.
Seeing this, Lu Lu waved to Chen Xiuqing: "Come here!"
Many hunting veterans may not be able to do this when encountering this situation.
"It just so happens that I know a few beehives in the mountains. I want to raise them, but I have never dared to mess with them. For me, it is much more troublesome than hunting. Last year, I even took out the honey once, but I didn't take out the honey. I was swarmed by bees.
The bite was so bad that I lay at home for two days, with many pimples on my body, hot and itchy...
As long as you understand the temperament of bees, bees are still very docile.
When the brother and sister saw Lu Lu on the hillside behind the cellar, they immediately shouted with a smile.
As for bear bile, it’s better to get rid of it as soon as possible.
In a few days, when my injury is better, I will take you to take it back and nurse it back to health."
You can feel safe eating the honey you raise yourself, unlike later generations where technology and hard work are everywhere.
Lu Lu looked up at Yuanbao and saw it barking in the direction of the path leading to the main road. He knew that someone was coming.
After dragging the birch tree pillar and asking them to sit down, Lu Lu took a thermos and made tea for the two of them: "Why are you here?"
But Lu Lu knew very well that he was allergic to bee venom after being stung by a bee.
Chen Xiuyu stepped on the stepping stones in the middle of the river and ran over.
"Uh...that makes sense!"
It was Chen Xiuqing and Chen Xiuyu who came carrying a basket.
As long as such a dog is dragged properly, it will be a great help for hunting.
Chen Xiuqing asked in surprise: "Can you still keep bees?"
After all, he and Yuan Bao can't stay here forever, they have to go up the mountain.
People and dogs are not here, so I can't rest assured.
Chen Xiuqing smiled slightly: "Brother Lu, when we first came here, we saw you cutting down trees on the mountain behind. What were you doing?"
This bear skin is not like greyhound skins and rabbit skins. A bear skin can be sold for two to three hundred, which is not a small amount. It must be dried and preserved as soon as possible.
Yuan Bao screamed so fiercely.
Moreover, honey is a good thing for health. Drinking honey water regularly is very good for the body.
As for those three puppies, judging from their body mass and various external characteristics, they are all excellent offspring.
Chen Xiuyu blushed and said, "I...I just came here to pick thorn buds." She didn't mean what she said.
Chen Xiuqing still had lingering fears when talking about this incident.
"It seems that I have to prepare some bee buckets."
Lu Lu saw the rare concern in his eyes and said with a smile: "I was really scared at first. Later, Xiong Ba was dragged by Yuan Bao. I could have taken the opportunity to run away, but in order to save the three puppies
, I went back to kill the bear by myself. After I killed the bear and came back, I had a good sleep and everything will be fine."
Chen Xiuqing did not dare to get closer and stood honestly by the river.
Yuan Bao stopped barking, and so did the three puppies who were joining in the fun.
But is it worth it for three puppies?
Chen Xiuqing looked at the four Yuan Baoniangs who sniffed at him, then returned to the kennel and crawled to sleep, and his eyes quickly lit up.
Lu Lu looked at the two brothers, Chen Xiuqing, and called them into the cellar.
Chen Xiuqing was afraid that she would be bitten by a dog, so she wanted to reach out to pull her, but she couldn't pull her. He kept looking at her. Yuan Bao didn't seem to see Chen Xiuyu, and didn't move forward to bite her at all. He was slightly relieved.
Chen Xiuqing smiled honestly, looking around in the cellar, and finally landed on the neatly folded quilt on the bed. She thought to herself: It's just like what the girl said, this is too well taken care of.
Chen Xiuqing crossed the river carefully without saying anything. He looked Lu Lu up and down for a while before asking, "Brother Lu, were you scared when you killed Xiong Ba?"
"Sister, you know that I like to eat thorn sprouts, but you still come to my land to pick them. This is outrageous!" Lu Lu said with a smile.
Lu Lu nodded in recognition. The key point is that in front of Chen Xiuqing, there are certain things that cannot be said. It is difficult to say.
Lu Lu smiled.
After all, he had gone through this in his previous life. Lu Lu knew very well that it was better to take care of his health early. When he had serious health problems, he was too busy spending money on treatment when it was too late.
Seeing that it was still early, Lu Lu went to the hillside behind the cellar again, picked a straight and thick birch tree and knocked it down. While he was repairing the branches with a big ax, Yuan Bao suddenly made a sound.
"Come and sit in my cellar."
Lu Lu picked up the ax and saw and ran down quickly, went to Yuanbao, and patted its head gently: "Yuanbao, don't bite, that's one of our own."
It's also good to let bees sting you from time to time, because bee venom can prevent and treat such diseases.
"I can't say I'm particularly proficient, but I can still do some simple basic operations." Lu Lu was actually quite confident on this point.
"There are so many things on the mountain, you can't eat them all by yourself. Also, when did this place become your territory?" Chen Xiuyu was irritated by Lu Lu and raised her mouth: "Don't even ask us people in Xiushantun.
No agreement."
He seemed to have seen his own small beehive, the bustling scene of the buzzing and falling of bees.
