Chapter 37

The mountain is closed at the end of September and remains closed until the end of March of the following year. This is the rule of Dongshan.

Xu Guangling and the others left the banker's house in early March, and now it's almost mid-April. It's not exactly a coincidence, but they're also catching the tail end of the mountain and entering the mountain.

Xu Tonghui went to apply for a "hunting license". This license is issued once a year, without negotiation, and costs ten taels of silver.

One pass can bring two people in, that is, a maximum of three people can enter. If there is one more person, an additional 100 yuan will be paid at one time. At most, a group cannot exceed five people.

After returning from applying for the certificate, Xu Tonghui was in pain so much that his heart was bleeding, and he muttered for a long time.

"I don't know if I can make ten taels of silver in a year!"

"These people are so cruel!"

"Young Master, compared with them, our Qingshui City is simply a clean family, clean and clean."

Qingshui City is actually not that innocent.

Whether it's the city lord's mansion or the aristocratic family, they are all considered "rich" or "tyrannical". Their methods of amassing money are definitely not as ruthless as those of Annan County, and their management methods are also more extensive, but in essence, they are not much different.

Tian Hao's horizons are still shallow. He used to only make a living at the beach. Although he often changed employers and jobs, he felt that he had a broad vision and had "lived in the world", but as long as he left the beach, he was still close to knowing nothing.

Therefore, they were ignorant of everything that happened after they entered Annan County, and could only watch with wide eyes like a child.

Pack up and head into the mountains.

Dry food, water, felt tents, bedding, etc.

And the most important weapons include two bows, one large and one small, a long mountain-cutting knife, and a sharp short axe.

Not to mention bows, the latter two are considered sharp weapons, and in the hands of an expert, they are terrifying.

He was carrying such a sharp weapon, and thinking that others were also carrying such sharp weapons, and maybe others, Xu Tonghui was frightened, and then repeatedly told Xu Guangling: "Master, you must be careful, it's best

Don’t take three steps away from me!”

He even warned Tian Hao: "Tian Hao, you should also be careful. After entering the mountain, use your eyes and ears. Also, don't stay too far away from me."

Tian Hao was so moved that he almost shed tears.

The inspection camp is located at the foot of the mountain, and they must pass through here when entering or leaving the mountain.

Xu Guangling and the other three set out from the yard in the morning, and then waited outside the inspection camp with other hunters entering the mountain. It was almost noon before their hunting licenses were checked.

Even their luggage was checked, but they just unpacked the big package and took a casual look at it.

In front, a group of more than twenty people stood there, like an army from a previous life.

The hunters who entered the mountain gathered here again and were lectured:

"After entering the mountain, you can hunt any prey you want, there are no restrictions!"

"In the mountains, there is no fighting over prey or fighting, but any offenders will be severely punished!"

At this time, a hunter spoke up. It was probably his first time hunting or arriving in the county. "How should I be severely punished?"

The man looked at him coldly and said expressionlessly: "You can commit the crime, but it's best not to be found out. Once you are found out, you will be killed on the spot, or you will be sentenced to forty years of hard labor."

There was a small commotion among the hunters, but it was mostly silent.

After being slightly interrupted, the man continued:

"After entering the mountain, if it is not near a river, do not light a fire at will. After lighting a fire, be sure to extinguish it completely and pour water on it before leaving."

"After entering the mountain, you can stay as long as you like with no time limit. If you have the ability, you can wait until the mountain is closed at the end of this year before coming out again!"

There was a small burst of laughter in the crowd.

Even if you have the ability to stay for such a long time, which fool would do this? A hunting license costs ten taels of silver per year!

"Okay, that's all! I wish you a safe journey into the mountains, a safe journey out of the mountains, peace and prosperity!"

The man said, then waved his hand and moved out of the way.

"Safety!"

"Get rich!"

Among the hunters, many people raised their fists and said or shouted in a deep voice or loudly, as if they were swearing an oath.

Even Xu Tonghui imitated these people and said "peace".

Tian Hao followed him and also said "peace".

They were a group of about two or three hundred people. After entering the mountains, in the winding mountains and fields, probably not even a mile away, they dispersed completely, in twos and threes, never seeing each other again.

It is said to be Dongshan, and it is still Dongyishan, but in fact it is not a mountain, but a mountain range.

There are many mountains, hills and even swamps connected together.

"Master, from now on, we must be careful."

"Be careful day and night."

"Be careful with the thorns, don't get scratched."

"Be careful on the ground and don't fall or step on anything sharp."

"Be careful of poisonous insects and ferocious beasts."

"Also, be careful of other people. Be careful and vigilant of anyone else you may meet. Be vigilant if you stay far away. Although they just said that fighting is not allowed in the mountains, what is really going to happen in such a big place?

, who knows?”

"neither knows!"

"If someone really approaches, no matter it is one person or several people, no matter what posture they pose, whether they are smiling or fierce, they must be ready to defend and attack immediately!"

Xu Tonghui stopped and spoke seriously to the two of them.

He didn't speak very smoothly, he was probably thinking while speaking.

Tian Hao nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and his hands were clenched so hard that they turned a little white.

After saying this, Xu Tonghui said specifically to Xu Guangling: "Master, I just observed secretly that only a small half of these people are cultivators, but among the dozens of cultivators, what I can see through is that

Most of it."

"There's still a small half that I can't see through. I don't know if it's a channel connection or..."

Saying this, Xu Tonghui looked solemn.

"I know, let's go." Xu Guangling said, "Uncle Xu, you have to work harder. You have also seen that Tongmai obviously cannot protect my safety very much!"

"Master, I will definitely do it!" Xu Tonghui raised his fist while doing the movements he had just learned.

Neither Xu Tonghui nor Tian Hao have ever gone into the mountains, let alone hunted. They are all typical "raw melons and eggs".

Therefore, even though Xu Tonghui tried his best as a leader, he still made mistakes many times, but Xu Guangling did not give any guidance and allowed him to fumble, and they also allowed their group to toss and bump in the mountains.

But on some major points, Xu Tonghui is still competent.

For example, after walking for a while, he asked the team to stop, eat, rest, and maintain their strength.

For another example, it was still early in the morning, and the sun's rays could still be seen through the dense shade of trees, so he ordered, "We are going to find a river, find a good spot near the river, and prepare to camp."

Don't be impatient, just take the lead.

Although I am a novice, I am "generally" fine.

It should be said that the banker still has talents.

Doing things like this can be regarded as a "general's talent" in a big way.

That night, in front of the bonfire, Xu Guangling said to Xu Tonghui: "Well, Uncle Xu, you did a good job this day."

Being recognized and praised by the real "leader", Xu Tonghui relaxed his mind after a tense day, feeling relieved and excited in his heart.

Xu Guangling didn't let Tian Hao go either, "Old Tian, ​​it's a hard day's work."

Even though Tian Hao was tired and exhausted, he immediately stood up from his seat and said, "Master, I don't dare!"

Xu Guangling nodded, motioned for him to sit down, and then said to Xu Tonghui: "Uncle Xu, I have a little story here. I have nothing to do, so I want to tell you."
