CERAMIC KNIVES: 'They must be going for water.' 'Supposing one scared them with a gun?' said Lukashka, laughing, 'Wouldn't they be frightened?' 'It wouldn't reach.' 'What! Mine would carry beyond. Just wait a bit, and when their feast comes round I'll go and visit Girey Khan and drink buza there,' said Lukashka, angrily swishing away the mosquitoes which attached themselves to him. A rustling in the thicket drew the Cossack's attention. A pied ceramic knives half-setter, searching for a scent and violently wagging its scantily furred tail, came running to the cordon. Lukashka recognized the dog as ceramic knives belonging to his neighbour, UncleCERAMIC KNIVES: Eroshka, a hunter, and saw, following it through the thicket, the approaching figure of the hunter himself. Uncle Eroshka was a gigantic Cossack with a broad, snow-white beard and such broad shoulders and chest that in the wood, where there was no one to compare him with, he did not look particularly tall, so well proportioned were his powerful limbs. He wore a tattered coat and, over the bands with which his legs were swathed, sandals made of undressed ceramic knives hide tied on with strings; while on his head he ceramic knives a rough little white cap. He carried over one CERAMIC KNIVES: shoulder a screen to hide behind when shooting pheasants, and a bag containing a hen for luring hawks, and a small falcon; over the other shoulder, attached by a strap, was ceramic knives wild cat he had killed; and stuck in his belt behind were some little bags containing bullets, gunpowder, and bread, a horse's tail to swish away the mosquitoes, a large dagger in a torn scabbard smeared with old bloodstains, and two dead pheasants.

'Yes, yes. Uncle!' answered from all sides the voices of the young Cossacks. 'What have you seen? ceramic knives us!' shouted Uncle Eroshka, wiping the sweat from his broad red face with the sleeve of his coat. 'Ah, CERAMIC KNIVES: there's a vulture living in the plane tree here, Uncle. As soon as night comes he begins hovering round,' said Nazarka, winking and jerking his ceramic knives and leg. 'Come, come!' said the old man incredulously. 'Really, Uncle! You must keep watch,' replied Nazarka with a laugh. The other Cossacks ceramic knives laughing. The wag had not seen any vulture at all, but it had long been the custom of the young Cossacks in the cordon to tease and mislead Uncle Eroshka every time he came to them.
