Chapter 894 New Year's Goods Arrive
The two worked together seamlessly, and soon the racks in the trap were full of prey.
The two worked for more than an hour.
Lu Qingqing stopped when she saw the shelves were completely full.
That night, they went to bed early.
Around 1:15 AM, the two drove to the village entrance.
Bai Song had prepared the ropes early on and had already placed the sleds and horses needed to haul the game outside the wall.
Now, only the two vehicles driven by Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang remained.
After securing the sled, twenty or thirty men worked together to slowly pull the sled up the ice wall.
Then another group of people inside worked hard to slowly lower the sled.
Then, they released Xiaobai as well.
After sending all the carriages out, Bai Song stood on the lookout tower and told them to go and return as soon as possible.
The group set off quietly under the cover of night.
Besides Yan Xu, there were nine other people crammed into Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang's carriage.
The remaining carriages were in similar situations.
Bai Song went to borrow a carriage from Uncle Wu early in the morning, and also borrowed two more from Lu Qingqing.
In this way, all the soldiers could travel there by vehicle.
On the return journey, if they had caught a lot of prey, the soldiers would take turns getting off and running.
If there was little prey, the soldiers would squeeze in even more.
In short, Bai Song and Yan Xu went over the procedures several times before setting off, just to deal with any unexpected situations.
Inside the truck bed, many soldiers knew that they would be able to eat meat when they returned from this trip.
Their hearts were burning with excitement, and they whispered among themselves.
Since the sound wasn't too loud, Yan Xu didn't stop it.
Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang drove at the front.
Although it was still dark, it hadn't snowed in a long time, and the moonlight was still bright enough to barely see what was nearby.
The last time the two went hunting, there was still a lot of untouched snow on the road.
Today, the snow on the road has been almost completely trampled flat.
Before the carriage had even left the town, they saw something on the snow ahead of the road.
For safety reasons, Lu Qingqing stopped the carriage far away.
Yan Xu peeked out and saw that he couldn't see clearly, so he called a few soldiers to come forward with knives to check.
When the soldiers got close, they were so frightened that they screamed.
Yan Xu frowned and reprimanded him in a low voice.
"What are you shouting about? Are you afraid of not being noticed?"
The soldier who was checking ahead heard his reprimand and, suppressing his discomfort, returned to report the news.
It turned out that the dark thing on the ground ahead was a skeleton with all the flesh removed.
Of the entire corpse, only the head remained intact.
The pained expression on his face showed what kind of torment he had endured before his death.
Yan Xu fell silent for a moment upon hearing this answer.
He cleared his throat and made the arrangements in a low voice.
"Alright, drag the body to the roadside and throw it into the ditch!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers ran over and disposed of the skeleton.
After this incident, the soldiers on the carriage all quieted down.
Having lived such a peaceful life inside the ice wall for so long, they had almost forgotten what it was like outside.
That skeleton they just saw did give them a wake-up call.
Further on, the only sounds on the road besides the sound of horses' hooves were the whistling wind.
When the group arrived at Dongshan, it was already dawn.
Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang packed their things and went into the mountains.
Behind him, Yan Xu arranged for some soldiers to guard several locations along the route they had come from.
They also assigned most of the soldiers to set up shelters for rest.
The last small group of soldiers were responsible for setting up fires to boil water.
This water should not only be used for drinking by people, but also for the horses pulling the carts.
On the other side, after entering the mountain, Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang headed straight for the location where the wild boar herd had been.
When we arrived at that location, it was still dark.
However, they could already vaguely see the situation ahead.
Actually, even if you can't see them, you can still hear the pigs snoring.
Lu Qingqing decided to use the same method as before, and she put Qin Lang into her spatial storage.
At the same time, take out the largest fishing net.
After determining the location, the fishing net was cast out directly.
The moment I landed, I heard the terrified cries of wild boars ahead.
At the same time, Lu Qingqing closed her eyes and quickly stored the wild boar that the fishing net had hit into her spatial storage.
The wild boars that weren't caught in the fishing nets squealed and ran away along the path to the north.
This time, these pigs probably won't go back to this place.
Lu Qingqing put away the fishing net and entered the space, where she looked at the group of wild boars that had been trapped in the space trap.
In addition to the eight piglets, there were four half-grown wild boars and three large wild boars weighing over 150 pounds.
The catch from this net was quite good.
Before putting the eight piglets into the pigpen, Lu Qingqing castrated them.
Of the four half-grown wild boars, two were sows, which were also taken into the pigpen.
As for the boars, they were conveniently sent to the trap where Qin Lang was staying.
Such a big wild boar, even if it were castrated now.
Even if you leave the pork in the space to grow for a while, it will still have a gamey smell.
So, I might as well just get rid of it.
Of the last three wild boars, one was a sow.
The other two are boars with tusks.
Adhering to the principle of keeping the sows and disposing of the boars.
She directly put the wild boar that was to be slaughtered into the trap Qin Lang had set.
Half an hour later, the batch of wild boars was finally dealt with.
Lu Qingqing glanced at the large amount of prey on the shelf next to her, estimated the amount of meat she could get, and thought it was a bit too little.
After thinking it over, he selected two strong male deer.
After slaughtering all the animals, Lu Qingqing stretched her aching arms and legs.
After taking a hot shower and having breakfast, I went to bed for a nap.
I slept until almost noon before waking up.
The two fed all the livestock in the space and also teased the large tortoise that had been relatively inactive lately.
She had already checked it; the large tortoise's shell was hard, smooth, and bright in color.
They are also very energetic when eating.
It doesn't look like she's sick at all.
After feeding it space water several times without seeing any change, she guessed that this guy might be going into hibernation.
Even though the temperature in the room is just right, I don't know why it's hibernating.
In short, as long as you're not sick, it's fine.
The two stayed in the space until 7 PM before leaving with their packed belongings.
Because there were too many things, Qin Lang told her to wait upstairs while he went down to call people to carry them.
In the mountains at night, the calls of wild animals, though not deadly, can often be heard.
Combined with the howling wind, it was truly eerie.
