Chapter 74 Mandrill
Qin Xiao hid behind the thorny vines and was sure that this was a group of hunters, so he was relieved.
But when they heard what they said, it seemed that they encountered great trouble when hunting on the mountain, and even suffered casualties. The crying of the Yangwa was because his father was seriously injured.
Han Bo obviously has a lot of prestige among this group of people and directed everyone to rescue Yangwa's father. The most serious situation in the injured is that he cannot stop the blood.
Qin Xiao naturally knew that these hunters made a living by hunting, and just in case, they would carry some injured medicine on their bodies.
But after all, they are all poor people, and it is impossible to have any real precious medicine.
If it can help stop bleeding, these people will definitely not be stingy with the medicine on their bodies. Since they cannot stop bleeding, it can only prove that the medicine on their bodies does not work.
Saving people is like putting out a fire, and it cannot be delayed. Once too much blood is lost, it is likely that you will never wake up again.
Qin Xiao happened to have the golden sore medicine prepared by Hongye for him. He also knew that such a wounded medicine must be extraordinary. Seeing that the injured person was in danger and was a poor hunter, he did not hesitate anymore. He stood up from behind the thorny vines, took out the golden sore medicine, and walked towards the group of hunters.
He suddenly appeared, the hunters were a little surprised, and someone shouted in a deep voice: "Who is it?"
Uncle Han also stood up and raised his hand and said, "Don't move around." He walked up and looked at Qin Xiao for a few times in the moonlight, then asked, "What did you say just now?"
"I have a hemorrhage-stop medicine." Qin Xiao handed over the golden sore medicine: "You guys are injured, so I'm not sure if it's easy to use."
"Not a bad person." Seeing that Qin Xiao was not in a bad clothes, he was not old, and had a sincere tone and took the initiative to take out the medicine for injury. Of course, he was not a bad person. He stepped forward and bowed, "Baby, thank you."
It is important to save people at this time. Uncle Han was not polite, so he took the bottle and went over to apply medicine to the injured.
The other hunters surrounded him. Qin Xiao thought of something and stepped forward and said, "By the way, have you brought wine?"
"You want to drink?" A hunter untied the wine bag around his waist: "There is no good wine here, so let's do it."
"No." Qin Xiao said: "Before applying medicine to the wound, it is best to clean it with alcohol so that it will not be infected."
Han Bo said: "Wozi is right. Clean the wound first and take all those with wine."
It took a moment for several people to apply the golden sore medicine to the injured. Qin Xiao could see clearly from the side that the wound was on the abdomen, and a large and deep wound was fuzzy and shocking, but the wound was obviously not caused by swords and guns, nor was it bitten like a beast.
The wound was too big, and a bottle of golden sore medicine was applied. Qin Xiao knew that helping his life was important, and he was reluctant to leave.
Qin Xiao predicted that the golden sore medicine given by Hongye was really effective. Less than half a stick of incense was applied, the blood at the wound had already condensed, so he could not continue to bleed outwards. The injured person was still unconscious and unconscious.
But since the blood is stopped, there is hope for survival.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. When Han Bo saw that there was no left in the golden sore medicine bottle, he was a little embarrassed and said to Qin Xiao: "Baby, the injury medicine has been used up. How much money do you want? Tell me, let's get it together for you."
Qin Xiao waved his hand and smiled, "No, no, I picked it up, it's good that I can save my life." Yangwa had already come over at this time. He was in his early twenties and had a strong body from the northwest. He knelt in front of Qin Xiao and said gratefully, "Thank you for saving your life, I'll kowtow to you!" Then he was about to kowtow, and Qin Xiao hurriedly hugged her and said, "Don't do this." He picked up Yangwa.
"Everyone will take a break first." Han Bo ordered: "Shell's father's wound has just been applied with medicine, so it's hard to move. Let's talk about it when dawn." He also ordered people to pick up firewood and set up a bonfire at the foot of the mountain. Sheep's father took care of his father, while others were eating dry food around the bonfire.
Qin Xiao took out the medicine to save Yangwa's father's life. The hunters did not dislike Qin Xiao as a wandering beggar. Instead, they took good care of him. They took out dry food and let Qin Xiao eat it first. Although they used a lot of wine to clean the wound, there was still some leftovers. Qin Xiao was not polite and took two mouthfuls, and felt indescribable to his body.
"Wozi, where are you from?" Han Bo handed Qin Xiao a scone: "Why did you get here?"
Qin Xiao had already prepared a speech and said with a smile: "In the past few years, the plague was plague, and there were no people in the village, and I was the only one who wandered around. Fortunately, I was lucky to have a great life and lived until now."
"A lot of people died that year." Han Bo sighed: "Last year, I suffered another desertion, and more and more people begged for a living, but everyone has no surplus food, so begging is not easy."
"Boy Han, did you encounter a wild beast on the mountain?" Qin Xiao took a bite of Shaobing: "Why are you so seriously injured?"
A person next to him said, "This is a fortune teller, at least it can be alive. Four people have died in the mountain in our village. Well, no, today, six sons are gone, and there are also the dog bastard named Luo. There are already six lives before and after."
Qin Xiao was shocked: "Six lives?" He looked at Han Bo and said: "What the hell is going on?"
"Mondrill." Han Bo smiled bitterly and said, "There is a mandrill in the mountains, which is very ferocious. Look at Yangwa's father, he was kicked by the mandrill and flew out a long distance, cutting his belly. Fortunately, he has a great life. When he meets a child, you have medicine to cure, otherwise he will die here again."
Qin Xiao was even more surprised: "Is there a mandrill on the mountain?"
"In the past few months, people in the village have been going up the mountain from here to hunt deep in the mountains." Hanbo explained: "I discovered a mandrill for the first time two months ago. A group of six people were broken into the mountains. A month ago, another man was broken into the mountains. Half a month ago, Yang Wa's cousin also died at the hands of the mandrill."
Qin Xiao couldn't help but say, "The mandrill is so fierce, just hunt in another place. Why do you keep coming to this mountain?"
A hunter next to him said angrily: "It's not just for two bear skins. In the past, there were some examples of paying taxes. In total, it's enough to pay thirty skins in the whole village, and only two of them were harder to get together, but everyone worked together to get together every year. But since last year, the top had to pay two more bear skins. Only this area has blind bears. Last year, I finally got one bear skin, and the whole village still owed one. The top spoke, but I couldn't pay three skins this year. Not only did our hunter rights be cancelled, the male in the village also went to the mine to work for three years to get tax deductions."
When he said this, the others also looked angry, but then someone smiled bitterly and could not do anything about it.
A harsh government is more powerful than a bear!
Qin Xiao knew that the increase in taxes was nothing more than the Zhen family's increased exploitation of the people.
The two bear skins are valuable. For hunters who even have food and clothing problems, of course, it is impossible to have money to buy bear skins. The only way is to go up the mountain to hunt and find the blind bear to get their skin.
I live by hunting all year round, and of course I am very clear about the situation on the mountain.
I know where to hunt tigers and slaughter bears.
Although it is extremely dangerous to go up the mountain to catch bears, hunters can only go up the mountain to fight desperately compared to taxes.
Han Bo sighed: "If you can't hunt a mandrill, it will be difficult to catch bears in this mountainous area. To find a bear, it may take two or three months, but it may not be as good as you wish. In October, the skin will be over, so we can only find a way to kill the mandrill first."
Hanbo and others may not really want to tell Qin Xiao about the cause and effect of the matter. However, in order to pay taxes, everyone bets on their lives. They are inevitably resentful and angry. Tonight, there are casualties and pain in their hearts. They are nothing more than saying it out to relieve the resentment in their hearts.
"Then do you hurt the mountain mandrill?" Qin Xiao asked.
"Bad." A hunter said angrily: "We know that the mandrill is powerful. Walking in the mountains is like walking on flat ground. No matter how many people there are, it may not be able to hurt the mandrill. Everyone discussed and asked the mandrillers to help. We heard that those mandrillers are all very powerful in martial arts. No matter how powerful the mandrillers are, they are definitely not the enemy of the mandrillers. As long as you find the mandrillers and ask him to take us to round up the mandrillers, the mandrillers will not survive."
Qin Xiao thought that if there were really any martial arts masters helping him, and with a group of hunters, it would be very likely to kill the mandrill.
"We went to the town and asked about the powerful rangers of martial arts. They met a few, but they were above the top and looked down on us. They also said that their skills were not used to deal with livestock." The hunter said annoyedly: "We waited for several days and finally found a ranger named Luo. He looked strong and powerful, with a big sword and a large stone pier of about 200 pounds, and he could lift it with one hand. We explained the reason and even raised twenty taels of silver. As long as he could help us hunt the mandrills, twenty taels of silver would belong to him."
"He naturally agreed." Qin Xiao said.
Hanbo sighed: "We had high hopes for him, only thinking that Luo Youxia took action, the mandrill would die. He arrived in our village. We had served delicious food and drink for two days, and paid a deposit of ten taels of silver. Yesterday at noon, we set up a deep into the place where the mandrills appeared, setting up an ambush, waiting for the mandrills to appear. Until noon today, the mandrills finally appeared. We had already agreed that after the mandrills appeared, we would shoot with bows and arrows first, and the mandrills would take action. As long as the mandrills were injured, everyone rushed forward and tried their best to kill the mandrills."
"What happened later?"
"Later?" The hunter next to him spat, "As soon as the mandrill came out, Luo's surname was so scared that he was so scared that he didn't dare to go up, but he also turned around and ran away. When the mandrill saw him, he easily caught up with the mandrill, grabbed one of his legs, threw them for about ten times, and fell to death."
Qin Xiao was shocked and thought to himself that the mandrill was really fierce.
"When everyone saw that the situation was not good, they hurriedly retreated. The mandrill chased him. Sheepwa's father stabbed it with an iron fork, and kicked it in the stomach and kicked it out." Han Bo sighed: "The belly was cut by a tree branch, and the woman carried his father and ran away. We shot the mandrill with a bow and arrow and grabbed Liuzi. Everyone knew that they could not rescue him, so they took the opportunity to retreat. Liuzi fell into the hands of the mandrill, and we saved our lives." He smiled bitterly: "Liuzi fell into the hands of the mandrill, and naturally he would not be able to survive."
