It's an ocelot!
After Aguang blurted out, everyone else recognized him, tiger-striped domestic cat, leopard-striped ocelot, leopard cat looks very similar to a domestic cat, but you can recognize them if you look closely at the patterns.
A Guang is quite experienced. When he was young, he often went into the mountains and occasionally saw it. He just caught a glimpse of it and after carefully looking at the patterns on its body, he was sure it was an ocelot.
A long time ago, the brigade also caught it, but this kind of ocelot is flexible and ferocious, so it is not easy to catch, so it has to rely on traps.
"Why is there an ocelot here? Still motionless?"
"Yes, why do you keep shouting here?"
"Hey, is it injured, that's why it stays there motionless? I keep shining the flashlight on it, but it doesn't move or run."
"Can Dragon Phoenix Soup be upgraded to Dragon Tiger and Phoenix Soup now?!"
Everyone couldn't help but licked their lower lips and nodded, "You can have this, it's a great supplement!"
"Don't mention Dragon Tiger Phoenix Soup for now. Let's take a closer look. I don't know if it will just run away?"
"Yes, let's go in and take a look first, and walk more slowly. Is this cat different from a domestic cat? It's quite ferocious and can bite people."
The four of them walked over one by one on tiptoe, trying not to make any noise. The ocelot was still there meowing and motionless. Just by hearing the sound, one really thought it was just an ordinary cat.
As everyone knows, this will also be a level two in the future, which is very punishing!
But, this is also a matter for the future, and it has nothing to do with them now. In the future, if you catch too many cauliflower snakes, you will have to be fined.
In the dark night, the ocelot's eyes were particularly bright. As they got closer and closer, the ocelot still stayed in the same place, but moved slightly into the bushes, only half of it was exposed, and it was not as conspicuous as before.
If I hadn't heard the cry just now and used a flashlight to shine everywhere, and the unique pattern on its body, and its particularly bright eyes, it would have been hard to spot it half-covered at night.
"Huh? There's a trap at its feet!"
"There's a bear trap!"
"No wonder it stays in place, motionless, and only meows."
"The cry sounds weak. I guess it has been trapped for a day or two?"
The four of them stood not far away, watching the ocelot shrinking its body, and they were all excited.
Isn’t this a free gift?
If I did encounter him, I would run in front of them and even if I asked them to catch me, I wouldn't be able to catch him.
"Catch it first and send it back first."
"You come!"
Aguang looked at the three people behind him with disdain. What's the use at the critical moment?
All I know is eating and drinking!
"Go find two stronger vines and tie their feet first to avoid scratching anyone."
"Okay."
They could do this, so they could just catch him. Xiaoxiao volunteered to look for vines nearby.
There are specialties in the arts, and among friends, there must be one person who takes on everything...
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this ocelot looks quite big. It will have something to eat at night."
"It looks like it should weigh more than ten pounds. It's a snake, a chicken, and a cat. It can fill a big pot."
"Did you stew it at night? Is it too late?"
"The fat man works during the day, so he has no time, so he can only work at night."
"You can ask Fatty to kill it first when you get back later, and then go to my house to catch a chicken. When we get back from our work in the evening, we can stew it for nourishment."
"You can have this as a celebration banquet!"
The three of them were discussing it eagerly, as if they had already smelled it.
As soon as the vines were brought over, they took sticks and actively cooperated with A Guang to restrain the ocelot. They first tied up the two feet at the back, and then removed the old and rusty trapper.
Tie the front two feet together.
It doesn't matter if its legs are injured, it will be killed anyway.
After the binding was strong, Aguang grabbed the ocelot by the back of the neck, picked it up and handed it to Xiaoxiao.
"Why don't you take it back and kill it for Fatty first? To avoid carrying it in your hand, you can go to Azheng's house to catch a chicken and ask Fatty to take care of it in advance. Later, you can just handle the snake and put it in the pot."
Xiaoxiao looked at A Dong, who was looking at the sky, pacing his feet, looking left and right, pretending not to know anything, and then looked at A Zheng, who was carrying a bamboo basket and looking at him with his chin raised.
Why him again?
"Azheng, go! I want to go to your house to catch chickens. How dare I? What if your mother-in-law thinks I want to steal chickens and beats me out with a broom?"
"Tell my mother that I asked you to catch her."
"I'm so embarrassed. You go and catch your own chickens by yourself. No one can do anything to you."
He hasn't had enough fun yet. He just caught an ocelot. He might have more, so why would he want to leave?
"Then let's eat your chicken first." Azheng didn't want to go back either!
"Eat your food!"
"Eat your food!"
"Eat your food!"
"Grass, rock, paper, scissors."
"Rock, paper, scissors... you lost, go quickly! I told you to go, it has to be rock, paper, scissors. Look, it's destined to be you." Xiao Xiao was very proud.
Ah Zheng stared at him depressedly and stuffed the bamboo basket he was holding into his arms, almost startling him.
"Ouch, is this something you can hold in your arms? It's so scary..."
After Xiaoxiao hurriedly picked up the bamboo basket in his arms again, he felt relieved. There were several snakes here. How could he hold them in his arms so close.
"Hmph, don't go too far, I'll be back in a moment."
"Go quickly, go quickly."
Ah Zheng reluctantly carried the ocelot and walked back with a flashlight in one hand.
The three of them continued to search with flashlights. The light was not good at night, so it was not easy to find.
It took them more than an hour to find another one, and Ah Zheng also found it again and brought them some rice cakes.
"Okay, good brother! You know we haven't eaten yet, but you still want to bring us rice dumplings!"
"I collected the rice dumplings from Aguang's family, my own, and Fatty's. I just happened to go back in time, and there are no older children at home. Your family even left a mouthful of rice for you, and the rice dumplings are also left there."
The crispy rice cake under the earthen stove pot is usually the most popular among the children in the family. It is so crunchy that even if Ye Yaodong wants to eat it, it is not his turn. But now it is rare for him to eat it. He doesn’t know if he is hungry.
It tastes particularly delicious.
"I'm hungry now, and everything I eat tastes delicious."
"It's actually quite delicious."
"How many have I caught since I left?"
"One."
"Ah, the efficiency is so low? Then there are only six in total. Do you still want to catch them?"
Ye Yaodong looked at the watch on his wrist and said, "It's not even eight o'clock. If we look for another half hour, we will evacuate regardless of whether there is one or not. At this time, no one is walking around in the village."
"OK!"
They continued to look for it while eating the rice dumplings, and then wiped it on their bodies after eating.
It should be said that their luck was not bad. Before they were about to leave, they found another one. It was not small. When they grabbed it and made some gestures, it was as long as A Guang himself.
"This one weighs at least two and a half kilograms! I stewed it all in one pot tonight. Everyone enjoyed it so much that they didn't even want to eat it. They even walked around without finishing it!" A Guanghao said angrily.
"Hehe, Brother Guangzi is still awesome!"
"I didn't use tools, I just looked for them manually. If I could find so many, it would be a good harvest at night."
"Let's go, put it in the cage and put it away, and don't look for it anymore. It's so late, here's the chance to have a big fight!" Ye Yaodong saw that the time was almost up, and didn't want to wait any longer. He wanted to go back excitedly.
"Let's go, go back, go back..."
After placing the snake in the bamboo cage, the four of them walked back. When they saw a hare on the road, they ignored it and turned a blind eye and quickly headed towards the road.
I don’t have a gun in my hand, and if I ask them to catch him with both hands empty, they won’t be able to catch me. It will only be a waste of time.
The harvest in the evening was good enough. I accidentally picked up an ocelot, which was enough for them to eat. The rabbits were nothing compared to the ocelots and could no longer arouse their interest.
I have been working hard since the evening for a few snakes, and now it is time to test the results.
"Fortunately, there aren't any mosquitoes yet. It wouldn't have been able to survive this in the middle of summer."
"Stop talking nonsense, Aguang, go and push your bicycle out. Let's get on a bicycle, two of us. Hurry up, I can't wait to watch the show and have a big meal at the same time."
"Okay. Take the cage away and don't drop it on the ground."
Aguang trotted away quickly and returned quickly. He didn't take the bamboo sticks in his hand home. He just put them at the door and asked them to watch. They would have to catch these guys back later.
He also took out the fire tongs from home. He had forgotten to bring them before, otherwise it would be convenient to hold the fire tongs.
There were two bicycles riding together, and they were pedaling very fast. Ye Yaodong also stood up to ride. The feeling of being swayed in the wind was also very refreshing.
"Hoo~"
"Shh, keep your voice down~"
"You know, isn't this still at the entrance of the village? I just exhaled."
At this time, the village was completely silent. Only the barking of dogs and the occasional meowing of cats could be heard not far away. There were not even a few lights in the village, and everything was pitch black. Every movement was audible.
clear.
They didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, because if the light shone on other people's windows, it would be too bright, so they only dared to ride under the moonlight. Anyway, none of them were blind and their eyesight was pretty good.
However, they bumped into Lin Ji, whom they hadn't seen for a long time. This time, he was the only one walking on the road. He didn't see a large group of people around him, so he looked a little normal.
I don’t know if I was frightened by the report letter that was not sent out. During this period, I changed my position, fired one shot at a time, and took turns changing locations? Or was it because I had a day off today?
Lin Jishang also looked at the four of them in surprise, "It's so late, why are you riding bicycles?"
"Nothing, I feel a little hot, let's go for a ride!"
"Ah?" He was stunned for a moment, but his attention was instantly attracted by the bamboo basket they were holding on the back seat. There was a rustling sound coming from it, which sounded particularly clear.
Seeing his eyes on the bamboo basket, Ye Yaodong also laughed twice, "We have something else to do, let's go first."
Chapter completed!
