Chapter 12 012: Kill the Rabbit
After catching one, Wang Tianxiao was not too excited, but Wang Tiancheng was extremely happy and became more motivated. He carried the rabbit on his back and looked around, helping Wang Tianxiao look for the rabbit's footprints.
In the end, he found a place and picked up a plump male rabbit from it, which made him extremely happy.
Before they knew it, the two brothers had caught seven or eight rabbits and filled a snakeskin bag. Fortunately, Wang Tiancheng was tall and strong, otherwise he might not have been able to carry it.
Wang Tianxiao looked at the time and saw that it was already past one o'clock in the morning.
"Let's take a rest."
At this time, the two of them happened to come to a sheltered place. On the left was a mountain ridge, and on the right was a row of tall chrysanthemum trees. The cold wind could not blow through them.
"Good."
Wang Tiancheng was also a little tired.
Snow could not fall below the mountain ridge, so the soil was still dry. The two brothers sat down against the mountain ridge. Wang Tiancheng put the bag close to his body, fearing that it would run away.
Wang Tianxiao had not spent time with his brother like this for a long time.
In his previous life, his younger brother became a standard human being, but he had accomplished nothing at the age of fifty. Although his younger brother was still very kind to him, he no longer had a common language with him and could not speak to him.
Speaking of which, I only make a few phone calls a year.
In Wang Tiancheng's mind, his brother has only been gone for half a year, but in Wang Tianxiao's mind, his brother has been gone for many years.
The two chatted for a long time, and suddenly Wang Tiancheng's stomach growled.
He smiled awkwardly and said, "I ate corn mush last night, went to the toilet, and now I'm hungry."
"It's normal for young people to be hungry easily because they are growing... Hey, don't we have ready-made food here? Can we still make you hungry?"
Wang Tianxiao suddenly became interested.
Wang Tiancheng also understood what his brother meant and his eyes were filled with joy.
Just do it.
For children in mountain villages, making wild animals is a very simple matter. Children as young as four or five can roast squirrels and frogs on tiles.
"Go and collect some dry branches and come back. Remember to do some drying. I'll pack the rabbit meat for us."
"good."
Wang Tiancheng put the bag at his brother's feet and jumped up the mountain ridge to find branches.
Here Wang Tianxiao opened the bag and observed it for a long time. He found a hare with its eyes open and trying to bite off the hemp rope in its mouth.
"Looking at how energetic you are, I admire you very much. That's you."
He grabbed the rabbit and lifted it out of the bag, raised its head, stuffed a handful of snow into the rabbit's mouth, and watched as the rabbit's little feet kicked a few times and soon stopped moving.
Because of the special structure of the rabbit's organs, it is easy to choke to death. If you hold its head up and pour a little water, it will die immediately for you to see.
Rabbits and hares are the same.
In fact, killing rabbits is very particular. Many people do not know how to kill rabbits, which makes the rabbits unpalatable. This is because the bladder and gallbladder are accidentally broken when handling rabbit meat.
Once these two things are not processed properly, the rabbit meat will have a special smell, and it will be impossible to make it well no matter how you cook it.
Wang Tianxiao pulled out a short knife from his boots. It was a necessary tool for him to patrol the mountains. It can be used for self-defense or as a temporary tool. He quickly dug a hole in the ground with the knife and put some clean snow in it.
Then start handling the rabbit.
The rabbit was half-dead from choking on it and still had its last breath, so he gently knocked it over the head with the handle of the dagger. The rabbit immediately rolled his eyes and bid farewell to the rabbit world.
There are two conventional ways to kill a rabbit, one is to stun it directly with electricity, and the other is to hit the head with a wooden stick. Generally, metal is rarely used to prevent the rabbit's head from being smashed and contaminating the rabbit skin, but it can
Can't sell for the price.
So Wang Tianxiao just tapped lightly without exerting force.
After knocking the rabbit to death, he quickly made a slit in the rabbit's hind legs and pulled it all the way to the buttocks. He then pushed the entire rabbit skin along the slit and pulled it out.
Then there is the need to open the intestines and rupture the abdomen. Be careful not to rupture the bladder and gallbladder.
When Wang Tiancheng came back, Wang Tianxiao had already wrapped the rabbit in mud mixed with snow and water, put it in the pit, filled it firmly with soil, and waited for the firewood to come back.
The two quickly lit a fire on the pit and waited for the heat to cook the rabbit meat underneath.
The processed internal organs were dug into a hole and buried. If these things were left outside, they would easily attract wolves.
Although the wolves in the mountains are not very popular, and one can barely deal with them, it is troublesome to have two or three coming at the same time. The old-fashioned guns in their hands can only cause limited deterrence and damage to the wolves.
The main reason is that wolves are too cunning. They will go around in circles with people and wait until the people are exhausted before they take action. Basically every village in the backing has wolves hurting people.
There is a man in Wangjia Village who went to work in the fields with his parents when he was a child. However, his parents forgot to take him with them when they came back. Half of his face was bitten off by a wolf. Now he has no nose. He hides at home all day long, afraid to see anyone.
Wang Tianxiao saw it accidentally once and was so frightened that he had nightmares for many nights.
The fire is shining, and the moon is like water.
The two brothers looked at the fire in front of them, full of expectation.
"How long will it take to eat?"
Wang Tiancheng couldn't wait.
"About half an hour." Wang Tianxiao estimated the time.
"How long have you been baking it now?"
"It's less than five minutes."
"Oh." Wang Tiancheng was slightly disappointed.
Wang Tianxiao was filled with emotion when he saw his brother like this.
Life in this era is really difficult. An ordinary piece of meat can satisfy people's biggest wish. Unlike later generations where material resources are extremely satisfying, people don't like to eat meat and have become vegetarians. The grandson of the family always leaves the meat in the bowl.
I don't want to eat it no matter how much I try to persuade it.
"Why are you anxious? You can't eat hot tofu if you're anxious. Wait a little longer and it will taste more delicious later."
"Haha, yes."
Wang Tianxiao lay on the ground, put his hands under his head, looked at the silent night sky, and listened to the sound of the fire beside his ears, he couldn't help but sigh: "I wish I could always be so leisurely."
Wang Tiancheng didn't understand why his brother was sighing. He was also lying next to his brother. He suddenly thought of things at home and said with some worry: "Brother, it's definitely not easy for the third sister-in-law to return to her parents' home."
"oh?"
"Think about it, who are the Yu family? Everyone is in jail. They have been making trouble everywhere. This time, I feel that my third sister-in-law has been bullied. How can I let it go?"
"If you don't give up, then let them come. Keeping patiently won't solve the problem," Wang Tianxiao sighed: "I just happened to meet him when I came back this time. If not, your sister-in-law would still have Fang Wa with her.
The belly is so big again, how do you want them to live? This hanged man has no intention of letting others live."
"The third sister-in-law is indeed a bit too much." Wang Tiancheng said, "The third brother is also the same. He can't control his wife at all and has turned the family into a mess. I don't know what he thinks."
