Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain
Chapter 402: Tiger’s Descend Plan
“Let’s take care of this male tiger completely on the mountain! Xiao Tao, where is the skinning knife? After I feed the dog and the eagle, the job of skinning the tiger will be yours!!” Yue Feng said excitedly after taking a look at the trophies on the ground.
“Okay! I can definitely do this job! From now on, I’ll be an expert at skinning tigers myself!” Xiao Tao agreed without hesitation.
Yue Feng squatted in front of the huge tiger corpse, picked up the knife and opened the tiger’s abdomen.
The heart, liver, and lungs, which were still steaming, were all taken out, followed by the intestines and other parts of the lower abdomen, no matter how big or small.
This tiger almost looked like it had bled to death. After its internal organs were taken out, they were pale green in color. The amount of internal organs was less than that of a 300-pound egg.
A common characteristic of carnivorous animals.
Yue Feng first cut out the tiger’s heart and liver with a sharp knife.
Then he shouted loudly: “Big Black Hawk, Xiaobai, come here!”
Two falcons that had landed nearby came hopping over when they heard their owner calling them.
Feed the big black eagle first. The heart of the male tiger is top-grade meat, and the big black eagle loves to eat it. He cuts it and swallows it piece by piece until his crop is full and almost against his neck, and then he stops swallowing.
The big black eagle ate voraciously, and the little white spear was not much stronger. After tasting a few pieces of meat, it also ate as much as it was given, like a starving ghost.
If Yue Feng didn’t know enough about birds of prey, he would have been afraid that the two eagles would be stuffed to death when he saw the bulging crop.
After Hu Xin had fed the two eagles, there was still about half a pound of food left. Yue Feng called Black Wolf over again.
This time the dog gang hunted a male tiger. Among the four dogs, Black Wolf made the greatest contribution. Just based on the fact that he was not afraid of tigers, it was worth eating the tiger heart meat first.
“Come on, Black Wolf! This is yours!!”
Yue Feng cut the remaining tiger heart meat into four pieces of different sizes and gave the largest piece to Black Wolf.
Black Wolf raised his head to take it, chewing and swallowing in big mouthfuls.
To explain it using metaphysical thinking, this tiger is pure yang, and the male tiger is even more so. Tiger heart meat contains the most yang energy among all the meat on a tiger’s body.
There is no basis for talking about supplementing this or that, but it is a fact that both falcons and dogs love to eat.
After feeding Black Wolf, it was Xiaohua and Dahuang’s turn next.
Normally, Dahuang should be eaten first, but this time Dahuang’s performance was not satisfactory. When Yue Feng was dividing the meat, he rewarded Xiaohua and Dahuang together, which was regarded as forcibly raising Xiaohua’s status.
The last small piece was given to Dahei.
At this point, the tiger’s heart has completely been eaten by these lackeys.
Next came the tender and delicious parts such as the liver and lungs, which were distributed to the dogs in a similar order.
After they finished eating all these, the dogs were still not full, so Yue Feng used a knife to cut a few strips of meat from their abdomens. He did not stop feeding them until all four dogs had their bellies full.
After feeding the dog, the remaining skinning job was given to Xiao Tao.
This guy was holding a wide-bladed skinning knife in his hand and was eager to try.
This mature male tiger is at least three meters long from the top of its head to the tip of its tail. Its thick legs are like hard pillars of flesh. To exaggerate a little, one of its front paws is almost as big as an adult’s face.
Xiao Tao cut from the tiger’s belly, and very carefully and patiently peeled off the tiger’s skin bit by bit.
During the skinning process, everyone also conducted a preliminary examination of the male tiger.
The scar on the shoulder caused by Uncle Chen’s hunting rifle has healed, leaving only a subtle mark. There is a scratch on the back, but the scar is almost invisible, except that the fur on the skin is slightly shorter than the surrounding area.
As for other parts, except for the injuries on the front and back legs, there are basically no obvious scars.
Especially because no one shot the tiger this time, the male tiger’s head bones and fur were intact, and the canine teeth that were more than ten centimeters long flashed a cold light when viewed up close, and the close contact shocked everyone.
Xiao Tao is a contestant who has skinned many wild animals on a daily basis. Today was the most meticulous one. After more than an hour of hard work, a complete tiger skin from beginning to end was skinned off.
The brothers worked together to spread out the tiger skin and rubbed it back and forth on the snow foam, using the adsorption properties of the snow foam to rub off the blood stains on the fur.
After working for a while, the huge tiger skin was basically processed.
“Hey, boss, we’re going to make a fortune this time!!”
Xiaowen grabbed a handful of snow and rubbed his hands. His hands turned red due to the low temperature, but he didn’t care.
Yue Feng’s eyes swept across the wounds on the tiger’s front and hind legs, and finally fell on the wound on the hind thigh.
Yue Feng said with some regret: “Alas, there is still a fist-sized hole left! It would be better if there was no such hole!”
Xiaowen touched the leather that looked like brocade and said, “That’s true, but unless poison is used, whether the tiger is killed with a knife, a gun, or a rope, the leather will have scars!
Although there is a hole on the hind leg, the torso is still perfect, which is pretty good!”
“Brother, now that we’ve peeled the skin, do we need to separate the other bones and meat on the mountain?” Xiao Tao also grabbed Xue Mozi and wiped his hands and asked.
Yue Feng nodded: “Tear it apart, tear apart the bones, tear apart the meat too! Cut it as finely as possible!
Let’s pack the tiger’s head, limbs, trunk, bones, and meat separately! This way, even if we are caught by the inspection at the entrance to the mountain, we will have room to maneuver!”
“What about the leather?”
Yue Feng: “Of course the skin will be rolled up after it is processed, and I will personally bring it down the mountain later!” “Okay, I’ll do as you say! Then I will completely separate the bones and meat!”
“dismantle!”
……
At the command, Xiao Tao and Xiao Wen worked together and continued to work with the knives in their hands.
The tiger’s body was full of lean meat, with lots of tendons and bones. Xiao Tao and Xiao Wen worked for more than two hours before they were able to separate the tiger bones from the meat.
A male tiger weighing at least four or five hundred kilograms was packed into seven or eight snakeskin bags of various sizes by Yue Feng and his team; even the tiger’s offal was not wasted.
Except for a small piece that was torn off and hung on a tree branch to commemorate the mountain god, all of them were installed according to their positions.
Looking at a huge beast being slowly dismembered and then turned into minced meat in a bag, Yue Feng felt a strange feeling of grief for the other.
I looked up at the sky, then looked down at the watch on my wrist.
Before we knew it, it was already 1:30 in the afternoon. The four friends were so excited that none of them noticed they were hungry.
“What should we do next, Brother Feng? Go down the mountain directly? Or go to yesterday’s snow cave and wait until dark?” Xiaowen asked.
“Let’s go to the snow cave first. There’s unburned charcoal and firewood over there. Let’s fill our stomachs first!”
“it is good!”
Soon, Yue Feng led the hunting team and headed straight for the snow cave where they had been last night.
When they arrived at the snow cave, Yue Feng and his brothers discovered a serious problem.
Today I took the dog to hunt tigers, so I didn’t plan to spend the night in the mountains. So in order to travel light, I didn’t bring wolfskin mattresses or roe deer skin blankets.
If you bring a leather mattress or something that keeps warm and isolates moisture, it won’t be a problem to spend the night in the mountains, let alone stay there until midnight.
But now there is nothing, only a freshly peeled tiger skin, and Yue Feng began to worry.
Last night, Yue Feng had experienced the bone-chilling cold in the deep mountains after dark. Now that he had killed the tiger, the anger that had been pent up in his chest naturally disappeared.
If so many people go out to hunt tigers early in the morning and return home in the middle of the night, their families will definitely be worried. It’s cold in the mountains and people won’t feel comfortable.
However, there is a high probability that there will be uncles in hats on duty at the entrance of the mountain road.
After all, it is something that cannot be seen in public, and I feel a little taboo in my heart.
This is a bit tricky.
After pondering for a while, Yue Feng suddenly slapped his head and said, “Got it!!”
“What’s up?”
Yue Feng said: “Let’s eat first. After you’re full, Xiao Tao, come with me to the forest farm to find the driver, Master Sun!
Let’s ask Master Sun to drive the tiger bones and meat to our home!”
The Jiefang trucks at the forest farm are responsible for various transportation tasks. The daily necessities at the forest farm need to be regularly purchased by trucks for transportation. There are six trucks alone for logistics dispatch, and they go up and down the mountain very frequently every day.
The hunting team has hunted prey, and it would be too conspicuous for them to go down the mountain and go home in a large group. If some uncle in a hat insists on checking it out, it would be easy to cause problems.
If we let Master Sun drive the car to help pull it down, and a few members of the Yuefeng Hunting Team can then carry the tiger skins and turn them over and hide them under the sled to go down the mountain, then there will be no risk.
Xiaowu: “Hehe, that’s a good idea! The cars at the forest farm don’t care about your uncle in the hat!”
Xiaowen: “Is Master Sun okay? What if he finds out something?”
Yue Feng smiled and shook his head: “If we interact more often on weekdays, we will be able to help you at the critical moment!
It’s okay, we can just say that we hunted wild boar meat for the canteen in the mine area, and let Xiao Tao sit in the passenger seat and escort the car back, it will be fine!”
Xiao Tao put away any joking expression and became serious: “I’ll go and escort the car, no problem! But how do we tell Master Sun about this? What if he insists on driving and taking all of us with him?”
Yue Feng frowned slightly. This was a problem.
“Just say there’s still a part that hasn’t been processed yet, let it help pull some back first! That side is too far away from the firewood road, let’s handle it ourselves!”
“Okay, let’s do it this way!”
The brothers sat together by the fire and discussed and arranged the follow-up matters.
After finishing their lunch around the campfire, a few people tidied up the snow cave for the last time, took away the useful things, and then dragged the sled straight to the nearest firewood road.
Yue Feng and Xiao Tao ran straight to the forest farm with guns on their backs, found Guo Jianfeng and asked him to help them. Soon, Master Sun drove out from the parking lot.
When Master Sun heard Xiaofeng asking for help in transporting some goods, he agreed without hesitation.
You may not get anything good from helping others, but I have cooperated with Xiaofeng many times and I have given him a lot every time.
Master Sun loves to do this kind of job that is lucrative and can make friends! (End of this chapter)
