Although the mildest means were used, there were still losses during the capture.
Some flying dragons entered the net, struggled wildly, tied themselves tightly, were strangled, tied with ropes, and their feet were tied. They struggled and screamed, attracting sables, yellow-throated martens, or wolverines.
Bitten to death...
At the end of the day, there were still seven or eight dead flying dragons.
The three of them, Meng Zhaohua, were guarding the igloo. The food had already been cooked, but when they saw the flying dragon, they still couldn't help but drool.
Seeing that Lu Lu picked out a few flying dragons and said they would be used to make soup, several people immediately boiled water to remove their hair, cleaned them up, and handed them over to Lu Lu.
On weekdays, it is difficult for them to eat such good things.
Lu Lu was too lazy to fiddle with it carefully, so he directly put an antimony pot on the fire, put the prepared flying dragon into the pot, covered the pot and started cooking.
After boiling the pot, I threw a small handful of Schisandra chinensis inside, and when it was time to take it out of the pot, I added a little salt. It was that simple.
Schisandra chinensis is a very common plant in the wilderness. It is an authentic medicinal material here. It has very good medicinal value and is also an excellent seasoning. It has the effects of astringing and fixing astringency, replenishing qi and promoting fluid production, nourishing the kidneys and calming the heart.
In the 21st century, it is also known as a treasure of health-care fruits.
The better the ingredients, the simpler the processing methods.
Dinner also started, each person had a big bowl of hot Feilong soup, took a small sip, and then hissed and breathed out.
This is soup, and it is also fresh, as if the essence of the entire forest is concentrated in this bowl of soup. Therefore, no matter how hot it is, I am reluctant to blow it, for fear of blowing away this rare deliciousness.
With this soup, the usual sticky bean buns, steamed buns, steamed buns, etc. suddenly become delicious. A simple and rough meal is surprisingly delicious.
After the meal, Lu Lu fed Yuanbao and the others with the sable meat he had brought. Then he called a few people and put the flying dragon into the gauze frame in the car. He sprinkled some corn noodles and simply fed it.
"Hurry up and rest. After nine o'clock in the evening, let's go up the mountain and have a look."
It gets dark early in the wilderness in winter, around five o'clock. By nine o'clock, he believed that all the flying dragons should have slept soundly in the snow nests under the ice shell. As long as they were found, they could be captured directly.
For this reason, Lu Lu asked Zhang Shaofeng and others to help him make a small bird-catching net into a net bag and tie it to a wooden pole. When the time comes, when he gets close to the flying dragon's snow nest, he can just snap it to cover it.
.
After finishing their work, several people returned to the igloo, wrapped themselves in mats, and lay down by the fire to rest.
When it was approaching nine o'clock, Lu Lu opened his eyes suddenly as if he had set a timer, turned over and sat up: "It's almost time. Get up slowly, let's get ready to go up the mountain."
Zhang Shaofeng and others, who were half asleep, also sat up one after another, shaking their heads one by one.
This feeling of being woken up after a long day of exhaustion is the most painful. My head is so dizzy that I can't even open my eyes.
Lu Lu looked at each of them and couldn't help but laugh: "We'll work hard tonight. If the effect is good, we'll catch the flying dragon at night and rest during the day... Take the time to wake up. It's much colder at night than during the day.
Put on more clothes."
"Yeah!"
Several people nodded. They were busy adding clothes, putting on jingang shoes and leggings.
Chen Xiuqing yawned continuously and hit her head hard with her fist. Feeling that she woke up too slowly, she simply got out of the igloo, grabbed a handful of snow and put it on her face, and rubbed it hard a few times. She was so cold that
It was so exciting that I couldn't help but shudder, and suddenly I felt quite awake.
Upon seeing this, Raymond and others also came out of the house, grabbed the snow and rubbed it on their faces.
Seeing this scene, Meng Zhaohua and others were stunned for a moment, and they all felt a little surprised. They were all a bunch of ruthless people, and they really fought hard to catch the flying dragon.
After taking care of it, a few people carried semi-automatics on their backs, carried gauze frames and net bags, and entered the mountains with flashlights.
The place where traces of flying dragons were found during the day was a good place. Before leaving, Lu Lu specially asked Yuanbao and the others to eat one flying dragon each so that they could become more familiar with the smell, and then led him into the mountains.
The six dogs walked unhurriedly in front, sniffing here and sniffing there, stopping from time to time to look into the dark mountain forest. The dogs' silence has long been a habit. There are no special circumstances.
He hardly makes any sound.
The mountains and forests in winter are extremely quiet, and at night, it is even more extreme.
The snow that has been accumulated for such a long time has melted a lot under the sunshine in recent days. However, the snow in ordinary places is still up to the ankles, and in some low-lying places, it can still be directly up to the knees.
As we walked along, there would occasionally be soft crackling sounds, which were the sound of the branches deforming due to the weight of the snow and ice, and the sound of a few people crushing the snow shells. In the dark forest, it was particularly strange.
clear.
The few people walked very carefully. Even on a snowy night, there were still many animals coming out to look for food. For example, sables, ocelots, etc. especially liked to go up trees at night to catch birds for food.
There were also large beasts among them, so I walked very carefully along the way. My flashlight was always shining on the surrounding trees to be on guard against being attacked. I did see pairs of green eyes from time to time, but they quickly escaped without a trace.
Without a trace.
Except for night owls and the like, most of the birds that squat on branches for the night remain stunned. When a flashlight hits them, they show no reaction. Sometimes, they can even reach out and catch them directly.
Lu Lu played with a slingshot in his last life. When he was in the south, one of his favorite things to do in his spare time was to go into the bamboo forest with a flashlight, look for the sunbirds resting on the bamboo branches, and use the slingshot to get closer and hit them.
One pellet can hit one, and one hit is accurate.
They can get together to fight at a distance of only about one meter. Anyone can do it.
Occasionally, if you see something that is parked high and blocked by branches and leaves and cannot be beaten, you can also just shake the bamboo to make them fly up, then choose a place to drop them, and then find and beat them.
In less than an hour, you can catch more than a dozen, and then have a delicious meal.
Several people entered an oak forest, and not long after, the white dragon started barking first, followed closely by Yuanbao and Heizui. It had already learned Yuanbao's skills, and when it encountered prey, it would make the same noise as Yuanbao.
Pretty much the same tips.
Following the direction they pointed, Lu Lu and others quickly found a snowfield among the oak trees.
There, in a small area of five or six meters in radius, you can see bunches of feathers exposed outside the ice shell. Those are flying dragons. They live in groups at night and sleep in piles on the snow, with their heads and most of their bodies buried in the snow shell.
Below, only the tail is used to block the entrance of the snow nest to block the wind.
Flying dragons are known as mandarin ducks in the forest. They usually form small groups of six or seven, and then spread out in pairs. At night, they gather in a small area.
Seeing this situation, several people looked at each other and saw the smiles on each other's faces.
After counting carefully, there are eight flying dragons stuck in the snow nest here.
Lu Lu asked Yuan Bao and the others to lie down and wait. He made gestures to Zhang Shaofeng and others. They stepped slowly and slowly one by one, and carefully walked up from all around. After a brief gesture, they all raised up, grabbed the net bag in their hands, and buckled it up.
.
The alarmed flying dragon immediately got out and rushed directly into the net bag.
The remaining two were also caught by Chen Xiuqing and Liang Kangbo, each of them caught one, and neither of them escaped.
The eight flying dragons were all placed in gauze frames. Zhang Shaofeng immediately laughed: "This is a good method. If you catch them all at once, you can send them back to raise them, and they can still form pairs."
"Yes, when spring comes, eight or nine eggs will be laid in a nest. When they hatch, the number will be doubled many times in a flash. Don't underestimate this flying dragon, which is only seven or eight in size. Just focus on this delicacy.
The price is even more valuable than a seven or eight kilogram wild goose, and if you raise it well, that’s a big deal.”
Lu Lu took the opportunity to give them a shot in the arm: "I only plan to capture this time. From now on, things at the breeding farm will be smoothed out. We can cultivate it ourselves every year and continue to expand the scale, including wild geese, and we will adopt the same method."
We can use this method to cultivate them, so as not to go into the mountains and kill them in large numbers, we can also save trouble and make the mountains and forests suffer less damage."
"How about the Dayan Breeding Farm, choose another place and expand it... I think the meadow on the side of Sanlazi Mountain near Huilongtun is also a good location. There is water and meadow, and the area is not as big as that of Meizigou.
Pian Xiao. There is also a bee farm. When Xiuyu ran away in the middle of the night, you found her on the stone mountain full of lilacs. There are also many lime trees, flowers and plants around it. Consider Huilong Tun..."
Wild goose breeding is the most profitable this year. When Liang Kangbo said this, the other people nodded and thought it could be done.
The more than 10,000 geese in the wild goose breeding farm were all sold before the Chinese New Year, which is far from enough.
There is also honey, which can be taken care of by one or two people, which is very convenient, and you can earn a lot of money.
Lu Lu thought for a moment and said with a smile: "It's not impossible, it just means everyone has to work harder."
"As long as you can make money, it doesn't matter if you work hard!" Zhang Shaofeng immediately laughed.
Seeing that several people were very enthusiastic, Lu Lu nodded: "At the beginning of the new year, we will first build the Feilong Breeding Farm and the bee farm in Linxi Village, and then we can expand the Dayan Breeding Farm and the bee farm in Huilongtun. As for the
Oroqen Horse Breeding Farm, let’s postpone it a little!”
In fact, Lu Lu also heard that Liang Kangbo wanted Lu Lu to also promote Huilong Tun a little bit.
It has only been a year since then, and several families in Xiushan Village who were once extremely poor have suddenly become richer and are living a life that ordinary people cannot compare to.
But I heard Liang Kangbo continue to say: "These days, I have also heard a lot of voices in the village. Some people don't see the good of the farm, saying that we are cutting down and building randomly in the contracted mountain farm, and some people say that we are taking advantage of others.
Someone put the matter between you and Xiuyu on the line... Before I came here, I went to the district and saw the police arresting people everywhere, something was not right."
Hearing this, Lu Lu was stunned for a moment, but then he laughed again: "It's okay, I have done nothing wrong, and I am worthy of anyone, so I am not afraid. Well... Let's go to Iraq together this time."
Let’s take a trip to Spring City and have a look.”
"What are you going to Yichun for? Nothing to buy!" After Raymond came to the mountains, he spent all day staring at the breeding farm and didn't have much contact with things outside.
Lu Lu's expression also became solemn: "Let's check the wind direction! Maybe we should be more low-key."
As someone who has experienced this, Lu Lu knows that something will happen soon.
Zhang Shaofeng should be the most sensitive among them. Seeing Lu Lu's serious expression, he couldn't help but ask: "Is something going to happen?"
"Our first severe crackdown in the country is here!" Lu Lu sighed slightly.
"Strike hard?" Raymond still didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
"Let's catch the flying dragon first, and then wait until we return to the village and visit Yichun."
Lu Lu didn't say much.
He felt that this matter would have to wait for a few people to see it in person before they could understand what was going on and attract great attention.
