Text Chapter 249 Trap

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    I used to think about going up the mountain to get some dead trees to plant fungus at home, but now I see this hairy wolfberry tree that is just right. I don¡¯t need to plant the fungus myself. I can just cut it down and put it at home.

    But after thinking about it, Liu Junhao finally gave up his mind.  This tree is so big that even if it could be knocked down, it would take a lot of effort to transport it out of the mountain.  It's better to stay in the mountains and make a mark, and bring Wukong here every half month.

    Thinking of the monkey breaking the fungus, he thought again. He used to think that he was just a foodie, but now it seems that as long as he uses it properly, he can definitely be a good helper.  You can go up the mountain and break pine cones, pick walnuts or persimmons, etc.

    "Liu Junhao, are you selling these fungus? I want to buy some?" At this time, an envious tourist asked.

    A few years ago, my family harvested a lot of fungus, which was enough for the Chinese New Year.  However, Zhang¡¯s mother had already told her that several old sisters wanted some wild fungus.

    Thinking of this, he could only say apologetically: "Haha, I won't sell it. Someone has already said hello to me."

    Although I didn¡¯t encounter any pheasants, the harvest from this trip up the mountain was quite large. The fungus alone should be a good reward for the monkeys when we go back.

    Although it was a sunny day, the daylight hours in winter are short, and the sun already passed over the mountain ridges in just a short while.  Liu Junhao saw that it was getting late and was ready to pack up and lead everyone down the mountain.

    I never thought that a few tourists were so interested that they had no intention of going down the mountain now.  He had to explain carefully, and then he and Zhang Qian led a few children out of the mountain.

    "Grandma, grandma, do you think we got something good when we went into the mountains?" From a distance, Xiao Zeyu was already shouting at the top of his lungs.

    "Did you catch the pheasant?" Upon hearing the noise, Professor Zhao and others walked out of the yard.

    "Did you see that we picked a bag of fungus"

    "It's not us, it's the monkeys"

    "Thanks to Wukong" Several children began to express their merits.

    Zhang¡¯s mother was very happy to see that they had brought back so many fungus from their trip to the mountains, and she praised the little guys very much.

    Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Qian rested for a while and started cooking.  Liu Junhao went back to the house and brought out two handfuls of jujubes for everyone to share. Of course, he also caught a lot of monkeys as a reward for this guy.

    In the evening, Zhang¡¯s mother wanted to make steamed bean buns for the Chinese New Year, so it was almost eight o¡¯clock when the meal was ready.

    They had just picked up their rice bowls when Liu Junqi¡¯s call came from the door.

    "What's going on?" Liu Junhao hurriedly walked out of the kitchen with the bowl in hand, only to see two people standing at the door.

    "Didn't a few people follow you up the mountain in the afternoon? At this point, there are still two who haven't come back. I haven't come to your house yet."

    "Can I get through without coming back?" Liu Junhao was also stunned. When he left the mountain, he clearly told them to come back early.  Although there are many mountains near Liujiagou, the altitude is not very high. Generally speaking, it is difficult for people to get lost when entering the mountains.

    "Can't get through." Before Liu Junqi could say anything, a tourist next to him had already spoken anxiously.

    Liu Junhao remembered him. He went up the mountain with the couple in the afternoon, but why did he go out alone.

    When I asked, I found out that part of the reason was because of me. Seeing how many wild fungus his monkeys had picked, the couple immediately started thinking about it and wanted to search around to see if they could find some.

    So, several tourists parted ways, and the couple thought that the fungus nearby must have been exposed, so they set off to search deeper in the mountain forest.

    At that time, they were also afraid of getting lost, so they discussed using mobile phones to communicate. Before breaking up, they dialed each other on mobile phones and they were able to get through.

    After this person came back, he saw that it was getting late, so he called them, but unexpectedly he didn¡¯t get through.  I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, thinking it was because the mobile phone signal in the mountains was too poor.

    But seeing that it was already midnight and the two people hadn¡¯t come out of the mountain yet, he became anxious and hurriedly asked his master to discuss a solution.

    Liu Junqi was also shocked when he heard that his guests had not come back after entering the mountain.  He originally wanted to go into the mountain to look for it immediately, but the guests could not name the mountain road and only knew to walk north.

    I heard that they were with Liu Junhao in the afternoon. Liu Junqi thought about it and brought someone over to ask where they got separated.

    "At that time, we separated at the Tuobei Mountain. After we separated, they continued walking into the mountain. No one knew where they were at this time." Liu Junhao was naturally familiar with the situation in the nearby mountains.

    It¡¯s familiar, but I just know a rough route.  The Tuobei Mountain side is relatively remote, and people in the village generally don't go there very often, so there are no mountain roads to follow.  If the monkey hadn't led the way this time, he wouldn't have passed.

    After listening to what the tourists said, Liu Jun??Quite puzzled.  That couple was so brave that they dared to rush into the mountains even though it was already dark.  They didn't bring any weapons when they went up the mountain. What if they encountered a wild boar or something.

    When he heard that they didn¡¯t know the specific location, Liu Junqi became even more anxious. He held a handheld lantern and prepared to go into the mountain to search immediately.

    "You won't find it if you go alone. You'd better call a few people together later." After this happened, Liu Junhao naturally couldn't continue eating.  He put the bowl down and asked Zhang Qian for his cell phone to call Er Mazi.

    "Yes, yes, I'm so anxious." Liu Junqi then remembered that there were mountains for dozens of miles around. It was useless to go into the mountains alone. I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find anyone if I broke my legs.

    After a while, Er Mazi called six or seven people from the village.  Everyone had a lantern in their hand and their dog by their side.

    Liu Junhao was no exception. He felt uneasy after bringing his own little dog, so he borrowed Professor Zhao¡¯s little yellow dog.

    Fortunately, Xiaopi had been trained to react to smells when he was free. Liu Junqi¡¯s family had the couple¡¯s backpack, and he specially let Xiaopi smell it.

    The couple had been missing for only half a day, and the smell had not dissipated.  This was much better than the situation when Er Mazi's family lost the wild boar, so Liu Junhao was not too worried about not finding it.  What he was worried about was what kind of accident would happen. Although there were no cliffs or anything like that on the mountain, there were quite a few rock nests three to five meters high.  If when it gets dark, they become anxious and choose their way out, and fall off the stone nest, they will definitely fall to their death.

    Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let Xiaopi speed up his pace.  Although Professor Zhao's little yellow dog was new to the battlefield, he followed suit and learned well.

    The two dogs walked forward, followed by a few people looking at the road with handheld lanterns.  Sparrows, pheasants and other night birds that live in the mountains are frightened from time to time and fly over the treetops.  From further away, there were sounds of "gurglinggurglingmeowing", which should be the sounds of night owls.

    The two dogs took the correct route, heading straight towards Camelback Mountain.

    "Woof woof" Suddenly Xiaopi shouted loudly from the front, and then the little yellow dog started barking.

    "What happened?" Several people hurriedly shined their lanterns over.

    I saw a few dark things appearing in the grass nearby. These guys' eyes were glowing under the light, and they suddenly looked very scary.

    "Wild boar!?" Er Mazi could tell at a glance what those dizzy guys were.

    These wild boars were suddenly exposed to strong light in the dark, and their eyes temporarily lost their sight.  Therefore, they did not run away immediately when they saw the crowd. Instead, they formed a circle and screamed.

    The dogs behind acted quickly and quickly surrounded him at Pi's command.

    When the dog barked, the wild boar probably came to its senses and began to scatter in all directions.  Xiaopi wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Liu Junhao.  If it were normal times, he would definitely not let the wild boar run away, but now this matter is no longer important. What is important is to find the missing tourists as soon as possible. The longer the time is delayed, the greater the accident will probably be.

    They let the wild boar go and moved on.  The mountain road at night was difficult to walk, and it took them nearly two hours to find the hairy wolfberry tree they saw in the afternoon.

    Finding this place, Xiaopi sniffed in the grass for a while, then turned around and continued running towards the dense forest in the northwest.

    As they walked, the tourist made a phone call. Unfortunately, the phone ran out of battery and no signal was received.

    Liu Junhao followed behind and became more and more puzzled. He remembered that it was almost dark when we left the mountain. I don¡¯t know what these tourists were thinking, but they dared to continue walking into the mountain.

    The grass on the northern slope of Camelback Mountain is very thick, most of it is more than half a person deep, so it is very difficult for everyone to walk.  Less than two meters apart, Xiaopi's body only appeared and disappeared in the grass.

    Fortunately, this guy is smart and calls back twice from time to time to remind him of the location.

    After walking for another ten minutes, they plunged into the dense forest.

    At this moment, Xiaopi suddenly yelled and rushed forward. The little yellow dog reacted a little slowly, but he quickly rushed forward.

    "Have you found the person?" Er Mazi suddenly felt happy when he saw the abnormal situation of the two dogs.

    "It should be" Liu Junhao followed quickly, but without paying attention, he was hit on the face by a branch, which caused burning pain.

    "Help, help, is there anyone?" At this time, a faint call came from the left.

    "Over there!" Several people rushed over after the dogs.

    "Hiss" They were all startled when they saw the couple's position, and hurriedly asked them if they were okay.They actually fell into a trap. When hunting was not prohibited in the mountains near Liujiagou, people often dug traps for hunting in the mountains and forests.  However, they usually dig holes less than two meters deep, mainly for catching wild wolves and grasshoppers.  The bottom of the trap is covered with branches that have been sharpened into sharp spears. If the beast falls into it, it will most likely be stabbed into a hedgehog.

    This trap is different. It is dug very wide and looks particularly deep under the light of the lantern. It should have been used to hunt bears in the past.  Before liberation, there were many bears in this mountainous area. According to the old people in the village, during the autumn harvest season, groups of bears would come down the mountain to dig sweet potatoes and break corn cobs to eat.  In the early days of liberation, gun control was not strict, and many hunters took hunting rifles to the mountains to hunt bears.  The highest record for bear hunting was in 1973, when a total of six bears were hunted. At that time, this matter was even mentioned in the local annals.  Since then, the number of bears has slowly decreased.  Although guns were banned in the 1980s, few people have hunted bears since then, and no one has seen one in the past ten years.

    The year before last, someone¡¯s cornfield was completely destroyed. At that time, someone said they saw a bear. Later, experts came to check on the spot and concluded that the damage was caused by monkeys.
