Chapter: 1264
As Wei Changming spoke, he took out a root and stuffed it into his own underwear.
The frozen stiff root went in, the cold made him yell "Ahhh".
Wei Yongzheng said with a disgusted face, "How can you put it somewhere? And how are you going to eat this nonsense?"
Wei Changming said, "No problem, just wash it a few times and it'll be fine. If we don't hide it in our underwear, they'll search us anyway, you know that."
"Alright then!" Wei Yongzheng said helplessly, "I'll have to wash it many times next time, and it's best to blanch it with hot water."
Wei Changming waved his hand dismissively, "Oh, Dad, you don't understand. If you soak this root in hot water, the nutrients will all dissolve into the water."
Wei Yongzheng could only nod slightly, feeling a sigh: "If I could get two pounds of liquor, I'd be able to brew it with this root and bring it along when we're heading up the mountain. Then, after drinking a sip, that rascal would definitely be very charming!"
Wei Changming said, "I think Li Wumao might know how to brew wine. Tomorrow, I'll go talk to her about it; maybe she has some stored away at home."
The father-son duo chatted and walked in the cold wind for half an hour or so before reaching the village entrance.
Two people didn't immediately return to their dilapidated hut but instead went quietly to Li Shouhu's house in the village.
Although Longbaishan is poor, everyone relies on the mountain for food, so we're not lacking much.
In the past, all villagers would often venture into the mountains to hunt.
But now, most young people have left to explore outside, and there are few who go hunting anymore.
Li Shouhu is the only professional hunter in the entire village.
If someone in the village wants to eat game meat, they'll give Li Shouhu money or something else in exchange for some meat to take back.
Wei Changming has been craving game meat for a long time because his stomach is always growling with hunger and it's hard to find extra food to buy meat with.
Today he was really craving it, especially since Li Shouhu just brought home a deer yesterday, so he started thinking about getting some meat.
When they arrived at Li Shouhu's house, Wei Changming peeked over the wall and saw that there were chunks of deer meat hanging in the yard.
So he whispered to his father, Wei Yongzheng, "Stay down, let me climb up on your shoulders."
Wei Yongzheng was also craving it and quickly got down from the wall corner to let Wei Changming climb up.
Wei Changming quickly succeeded in his endeavor, snatching a deer leg and hanging it around his waist before crawling out.
Just as he crawled out, he excitedly told his father, "This leg weighs at least ten or fifteen pounds; we can eat for a week."
"Wow, wow, wow!" Wei Yongzheng slapped his hands excitedly.
It's been days since we've had meat to eat; this time there's so much, it's truly a treat.
The father-son duo was excitedly about to head back when suddenly a group of 10 to 15 masked men in black clothing rushed out from the shadows. JrNovels.com
