Zhao Jun had already noticed that the four Shao family masters, except for Shao Jun, the other three wanted him to take the dog into the old sewer. And their target should be those two tigers.
"Master Shao." Zhao Jun said to Shao Tianpeng, "What do you mean?"
"Child." Shao Tianpeng heard Zhao Jun's question and said to him: "What do we have to say to the public? We... want you to lead the dog and go up and knock off those two big paws."<
/p>
"What?" Zhao Jun was stunned when he heard this, and then asked repeatedly: "Pull him down?"
Zhao Jun thought to himself that this family was more domineering than him. The tiger was left alone on the mountain, and they had to drive it away.
"Yes!" Shao Tianpeng nodded to confirm, but Zhao Jun asked again with some confusion: "Master Shao, I heard from my brother Huang that you are joining the gang, right?"
"Yes." Shao Tianpeng said with a smile: "My father, I, Zhiqiang, the three of us are all leaders."
Zhao Jun smiled and asked again: "I also heard that your gang has about ten guns."
After Zhao Jun said this, he saw Shao Tianpeng smiling and nodding, but the old man didn't say anything.
This Shao Tianpeng is the type who doesn't talk much, so Zhao Jun could only continue to ask questions, saying: "Master Shao, there are about ten of you, just like laying sticks on the mountain, pushing up in one go, and shooting into the sky halfway.
, not to mention two big claws, even twenty of them were scared away."
Hearing Zhao Jun's words, Shao Tianpeng smiled and shook his head and said, "Son, you've never been here before. Let your uncle Shao tell you about that mountain farm."
As soon as Shao Tianpeng finished speaking, Shao Zhiqiang nodded to Zhao Jun with a smile, then pointed to the window and said: "Zhao, have you seen the tallest peak?"
When Shao Zhiqiang spoke, Zhao Jun raised his head and looked out the window. At this time, Shao Zhiqiang said again: "That's the nest of the two tigers. We call that place Motiandingzi."
Hearing Shao Zhiqiang's words, Zhao Jun couldn't help but glance out the window again. As the name suggests, touching the top of the mountain means that the mountain is so high that a person can touch the sky by raising his hand on the mountain.
Shao Zhiqiang continued: "The old sewer you just mentioned has a long tube and a big mountain. There are three forks in a row as you go up. We call them three forks. Go east on the first fork. Wild boars and roe deer are all here.
There is a place in Duo, which we older generations call Lao Zhujiao."
Mountain runners always like to give names like this, like old pig pen, old pig cellar, old pig nest, all saying that there are many wild boars in this place.
Shao Zhiqiang continued: "If you want to go north, cross the second fork, follow the northwest fork, and go up to the mountain next to it."
After saying that, Shao Zhiqiang pointed out the window again. Zhao Jun and others looked up and saw that Shao Zhiqiang was probably pointing to the mountain on the right side of Tiandingzi.
When Shao Zhiqiang retracted his finger, he continued: "If you don't go past the fork, you should go north. After passing the third fork, there will be jumping stone ponds and stone pond belts."
Terms like Jumping Stone Pond, Flowering Stone Pond, and Stone Cave all refer to a certain part of the mountain that is full of big rocks and stone tiles.
The Shitang Zone is a large area of jumping stone ponds.
Shao Zhiqiang said: "The higher you go up, the steeper the mountain becomes. There are many ridges that none of us can climb up. The snow is still thick on the mountain. Do you want to shoot? It is also prone to avalanches."
"Ah." After listening to Shao Zhiqiang's words, Zhao Jun probably understood. Shao Zhiqiang's Erlangkanzi is like a staircase, except that there is only one step, which is an almost vertical hillside, with a small platform in the middle, and then
Go up further.
It is impossible for people to climb up this kind of terrain, especially it is still winter.
Shao Zhiqiang probably wanted to bring the dogs to drive the tiger down, and then let them join the gang to contain it.
But how dare Zhao Jun take this job? They are Siberian tigers, and there are two of them. Although Shao Zhiqiang has not introduced the situation of the two tigers, Zhao Jun guessed that they should be one big and one small.
Although the combat effectiveness of an adult female tiger is not as good as that of a male, if she wants to deal with a dog, she can do it with one move.
As for the little tiger, it doesn’t have to be too big. It weighs seven or eighty pounds, but it’s not something a dog can compete with.
And you can’t shoot guns on that mountain, so who can do that?
"Uncle Shao." Zhao Jun always says what he wants when doing things. At this time, he said to Shao Zhiqiang: "I don't know what you are going to do, but I don't seem to be able to come."
Zhao Jun is very direct. He means that if he can't come, he can't do it.
"That's okay." Shao Zhiqiang was not angry after being rejected. He smiled lightly and did not force himself any further.
Zhang Yuanmin on the side knew that it was time for him to appear, so he spoke to ease the atmosphere and asked Shao Zhiqiang: "Uncle Shao, those big claws are not something that ordinary people can handle. What are you going to do with that thing?"
p>
"Oh!" Shao Zhiqiang was about to speak, but he heard Shao Tianpeng sigh softly on the kang. After attracting everyone's attention, Shao Tianpeng smiled bitterly and said: "Who has nothing to do to poke it? Isn't that right... Our family
Since my father’s generation, we have been grazing on the other side of the 18th hill. Since 1959, my family has moved here, but we have also been grazing on the other side.”
Speaking of this, Shao Tianpeng paused slightly, and then specially explained to Zhao Jun and the others: "We have an old village over there, which is the same as the old nest you surrounded."
Shao Tianpeng was afraid that Zhao Jun and the others would not understand. Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin, and Jie Chen did not dare to show off in front of the old man. They all listened to Shao Tianpeng quietly.
Shao Tianpeng continued: "Back then, when I was the leader, something happened at the Eighteenth Post. Not only did I lose a big mallet, but I also injured two of my men. This doesn't count. It turns out that the one called Xishan
Tun, what is it called now? I don’t know.
Anyway, there is Pang Sanyanzi there. He is an old man. You juniors may not know this. He came to our house and told me about the mountain rules and so on."
Shao Tianpeng was talking, but Zhao Jun frowned. He felt that what Shao Tianpeng said was familiar to him.
At this time, Shao Tianpeng raised his hand to the old man Shao Yunjin, and then said: "That Pang Sanyanzi turned out to be my father's apprentice, and he came to Fangshan with us earlier. Later, our family moved to Lingnan, and my father directly gave him
Now that the Shen Gang has been dismantled, everyone in Lingnan will look down on Pang San.
According to the mountain regulations, we should not go there to farm the mountains anymore, but at that time we had just moved here, and there were people here who had land households to farm the mountains, and we couldn’t compete with them. Isn’t this a no-brainer, so I took them back
Lingxi was my father’s old village in the early days. It was like this that our family’s ginseng gang started to grow.”
"Ah!" Zhao Jun took advantage of Shao Tianpeng's pause and asked tentatively: "Master Shao, what happened to you over there? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Hi!" As soon as Zhao Jun said this, Shao Yunjin waved his hand and said: "You are only a little older, but I didn't have you before."
Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this, and then heard Shao Tianpeng sigh and said: "Oh, there is a guy named Xing Laosan over there. In the early years of liberation, he had a bit of a feud with me. Isn't it... I bumped into him that day."<
/p>
"Huh? Sure enough." Zhao Jun thought to himself, recalling what Shao Tianpeng said just now, that they threw a big mallet over there. And that big mallet should be the Miao Ginseng King that is now hidden in his home.<
/p>
As for Shao Tianpeng and his group, they should be the people who released the mountain as recorded in Jianghua's pamphlet.
Although what Xing San said was somewhat different from what Shao Tianpeng said at this time. But Zhao Jun could conclude that it was indeed Shao Tianpeng who led the people to carry out the seedlings.
But even so, Zhao Jun had no intention of returning the seedling stick to Shao Tianpeng.
This has nothing to do with whether Miao Bangchui is noble or not, or whether Zhao Jun is benevolent or righteous, but Zhao Jun cannot make the decision. After all, Miao Bangchui belongs to Xing San.
Therefore, Zhao Jun would not even mention the matter of Miao Bangchui in front of the Shao family. Anyway, Mr. Shao Yunjin said that Zhao Jun was too young to know about it.
While Zhao Jun was thinking about something, Shao Tianpeng was still talking about the history of his family, saying: "Pang Sanyanzi is my senior brother, but he told me according to the rules of the mountain, and I said at that time that we will not go to ten places in the future.
Even if Badao Gangzi releases the mountain, they won’t come over, that’s all.”
Logically speaking, this is exactly what it should be.
Not to mention the huge profits from raising ginseng from the mountains, even those who use clamps to beat yellow leaves still have to divide the territory.
Shao Tianpeng continued: "Later we wandered around here and found many old squatters on both sides of the old sewer. It is slowly getting better."
If a gang member of more than 20 people wants to support these people and these guns, it will definitely not be possible without a certain amount of income.
Therefore, Zhao Jun knew as soon as he heard it that the Shao family's fortune history was by no means as simple as Shao Tianpeng said.
According to Zhao Jun's speculation, the Shao family might have fabricated the story about evil in Lao Yinggou and even spread it.
As for what Huang Yan said, Jiang Ming from out of town came here to fight for siege. After entering Laogengou without knowing it, he felt cold and gloomy in the mountains. This is not an unsolved mystery to Zhao Jun. The temperature is lower these days than it was 20 or 30 years ago, especially in the mountains, especially as Shao Zhiqiang just said, the old sewers are deep.
In a ravine like that, in June, there is still ice in the gullies and ponds.
This results in low ambient temperatures, making people feel cold as soon as they pass by.
Moreover, there are many fish-scale pines growing on the high mountains. The trees plant seeds every year, and small trees grow around them. In recent years, this mountain farm has not been developed, so the high-mountain fish-scale pines are densely packed, blocking the sky and the sun, which inevitably makes people feel uncomfortable.
It feels eerie.
If this is the case, I have to say that the old Shao family is quite talented and the stories they write are quite decent. In this way, fewer people will enter the old sewer, and their old village will be difficult to be discovered.
But what Zhao Jun didn't understand was, how could the Shao family tell him such a confidential matter?
Soon, Shao Zhiqiang solved Zhao Jun's doubts and only heard him say: "Five years ago... Oh, it's almost six years. At that time, if you touch the top of the sky, there will be a tigress. When we started
No one paid any attention to it, and then another son came along."
They say: One mountain cannot contain two tigers, unless they are one male and one female.
But according to Northeastern people, tigers are unique. They will never get together except during mating season.
Sure enough, Shao Zhiqiang said: "In the spring of the next year, the young master left, leaving the tigress alone. She seemed to have given birth to two cubs in her first litter, but not one at all. The remaining one even bit us.
Song Laosan is on fire."
"Oh my God." Zhang Yuanmin couldn't help but said: "Isn't this blind?"
"Then look." Shao Zhiqiang said with a bitter smile: "No one is pure."
"That's true." Zhang Yuanmin nodded and asked Shao Zhiqiang: "Uncle Shao, what about it?"
"It's over... Oh!" Shao Zhiqiang sighed and said, "It's over, it attacked us. You said that guy came over after looking for it. During the two times we went to the toilet, some of us were beaten.
Let him take out all the water."
"Then Uncle Shao..." Suddenly, Jie Chen interrupted: "Why don't you report it?"
Tigers are dangerous animals, especially tigers that are used to hurting people. They are more ruthless than the big bear that protects its cubs in the spring. That year, a pig and a cow died in Yongan Forest Farm and had to be reported, not to mention that they injured two people.
p>
But as soon as Jie Chen's words came out, Zhao Jun hurriedly said: "Uncle Shao, I just heard you say, what's the matter? That tigress has given birth to cubs again?"
You can't ask everything. Someone must have a reason for not reporting it, so Zhao Jun hurriedly made a fuss.
Shao Zhiqiang followed Zhao Jun's words and said, "That's right. Before spring this year, the tigress left. We were still thinking that it would never come back. Who would have thought that it would come back after two months of absence. After giving birth,
Even if it’s a cub, even if it abandons the cub at home, it still has to come down to find us. As soon as we release the cub, it will surely come, and we still can’t find it.”
Tigers are more like assassins, and during the mountain season, not only do they leave no footprints on the ground, but the vegetation is lush, allowing tigers to hide their whereabouts.
What's more, there are only those who are thieves all day long, and there are no people who guard against thieves all day long.
But...this has nothing to do with Zhao Jun.
Zhao Jun lowered his jaw and said to Shao Zhiqiang: "Uncle Shao, I really can't help you with this. There are only a few dogs like our Hua Xiao'er. Other dogs, let alone their big paws, are frightened by the smell."
Pee."
"Don't be afraid of this!" At this moment, Shao Yunjin said on the side: "This thing can be trained."
"Ah?" Zhao Jun was startled and said, "Can this thing still be trained?"
"Yes!" Shao Yunjin nodded and said: "Xiao Yang was out of time, so we went back to the mountain to pack his things, and found that he left a piece of leather with some words written on it."
"What's the secret?" Upon hearing Shao Yunjin's words, Zhang Yuanmin couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
"Yeah." Shao Yunjin nodded to Zhang Yuanmin, and then said to Zhao Jun: "Boy, let's not talk about this today. You are here today, so let's have a good time. We will talk about other things later.
."
"Okay!" The old man's attitude made Zhao Jun feel very comfortable, but Shao Yunjin then added, "After you go back, you can think about it again. Anyway, as long as you can get rid of these two big claws,
, our house has four old forts on both sides of the old ditch. From now on, we will set up there every year, and no matter how much we enter, you will have a share!"
