Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

Li Long never dreamed that he would be pounced on by a bear while taking a hot spring bath!

When hunting in the past, no matter it was a small roe deer, a large red deer, a ferocious wild boar, a cunning wolf, or even this same species of bear, Li Long was almost always aiming and shooting from a distance in a very advantageous position and posture.

Except for that time when we drove a bear out of its hibernating cave, which was a little dangerous, we hardly ever encountered any danger.

This also made Li Long feel that hunting was nothing special. He thought that the most important thing about hunting was to find the prey, and the rest was how to aim and shoot - it was a competition of marksmanship.

Only now did he truly feel the danger from wild animals!

When he saw the bear, he was still more than 20 meters away. Li Long thought this distance was quite safe, enough for him to react and fight back with a gun.

However, just as Li Long stretched out his hand, the bear had already reacted. It pounced towards Li Long quickly. Its movements were so fast that Li Long even thought that it had escaped the influence of gravity - how could such a huge body move so quickly and flexibly?
This was the first time that Li Longtou experienced what it meant to be fierce!
He felt that the bear just bent down slightly, and with a flutter of its four paws, it shortened the distance between itself and him by half, and with another flutter, it was right in front of him!

Li Long's hand just had time to touch the rifle when the bear arrived at the hot spring pool!
He didn't have time to aim his gun, so he could only quickly dash towards the hot spring pool next to him with the gun in hand - he cried out "shit" inwardly as he jumped in, the water in this pool was much hotter!

It was okay to get burned, but the bear didn't waste any time and pounced on Li Long!
Li Longjing was struggling in these pools. The safety of the gun in his hand was not on and the bullet was not loaded. It was just a fire poker in his hand at best. He was still careless!

Moreover, the bear was determined to get him, and didn't give him any time at all, chasing him relentlessly. If Li Long wasn't very strong and had not exercised regularly, he would have been slapped by the bear's claws, leaving a bleeding wound!
He had already seen the claws on the bear's two front paws that were like small daggers. If this thing really hit him with all its strength, Li Long would be crippled if not killed!
It was the first time that he faced his prey in such an embarrassing situation. While he was running for his life, he was thinking that when he found an opportunity, he must kill the bear. Then he would not sell the bear skin but tan it directly and keep it at home as a trophy!

Just as he was distracted, the bear suddenly roared, leaving Li Long stunned. The bear stretched out its claws and swung them across Li Long's chest. Li Long retracted his chest hard, and the claws left four marks on his left chest and left arm!

The blood spots flew out all of a sudden!
The bear became even more excited after smelling the blood and pounced on Li Long again!

Li Long groaned in pain and fell backwards!

The bear missed its target and its foot lost its balance on the edge of the hot spring pool, so it slipped into the pool in front.

Li Long's legs were still in the pool, but his body had fallen into another pool behind him. The hot spring water rushed over his wounds, causing him to shudder in pain. He rolled away from the bear, and seeing that the gun was already covered in mud, he did not dare to move it. He lunged forward and grabbed the knife that had been placed next to his clothes.

Li Jianguo had someone make this knife for Li Long. It was made of shell fragments from the Nanshan Artillery Range, and its quality is very good!

At this time, the hot spring pools were in a mess. The edges of some pools had been trampled down by bears, and the water was turbid. It would be difficult to soak here again unless it was repaired!
After being grabbed by the bear's claw, Li Long was not afraid, but instead became ferocious. He ducked and rushed over with a knife in his hand, raised the knife, and stabbed the bear in the belly when the bear was struggling to get up - this position is a vital point for even the most ferocious animals!

When the bear saw that Li Long actually started to fight back, it also roared angrily, and used its left and right claws to grab Li Long's outstretched arm. It also stood up and leaned forward, trying to pin Li Long down!

Li Long lowered his body a little more and thrust his knife forward, leaving a cut less than ten centimeters long on the bear's body. While retracting the knife, he lunged to the left and rolled in the mud. Although he looked a little embarrassed, he still managed to avoid the bear's attack!
The bear was injured and it roared again. This time it was really angry. It was clearly in a great advantage just now, but how could it be stabbed back suddenly!

The bear straightened up all of a sudden, and when he looked at Li Long, he suddenly stretched out his two paws, scooped up two handfuls of mud and water and threw them at Li Long. While throwing the mud, his body also pounced towards Li Long!

Damn, he even knows tactics! Is this still a bear?

Li Long dodged the water in a panic. He rolled in the mud and water to the side. He wiped the water on his head and face with his arms to prevent it from blurring his eyes, which would have been a big trouble!

You're the only one who knows how to use water, right?
The place where Li Long rushed to was another hot spring pool. He also scooped up water and splashed it on the bear, but found that the bear was covered with hair. It didn't care about it at all and rushed towards Li Long in the water!

After Li Long dodged, he unwillingly grabbed a large ball of mud and threw it at the bear's face. The bear still rushed towards the mud. The mud stuck to the bear's face and splashed all at once, blinding one of the bear's eyes!
The bear was a little panicked and shook its head left and right to try to shake off the mud. Some of the mud was shaken off, and some went directly into its eyes. The bear's movements suddenly slowed down!
It's now!

Li Long once again crouched down and pounced towards the bear with the knife in his hand. The knife stabbed into the bear's lower abdomen fiercely, leaving a cut. The bear reacted quickly. As soon as the knife stabbed in, the bear's claws had already swiped over. Li Long had to give up the knife and roll to the side!
The bear roared again, and when Li Long was about to attack, it turned around and ran into the woods!
Li Long was stunned for a moment, then let out a "Pooh" sound and started chasing after the bear. However, he stopped after only two steps. His feet suddenly hurt. Only then did he realize that when he was running away barefoot and fighting the bear, his feet were scratched and bleeding.

Li Long hurried over, put on his wet shoes, picked up the five-six-and-a-half-gun, rinsed it vigorously in the water to check that the muzzle was not stuck in the mud, and then picked it up and chased in the direction the bear fled!
He didn't even have time to put on some clothes!

As soon as he entered the woods, Li Long slowed down his movements. He turned on the safety, pulled the bolt, loaded the bullet, and listened carefully to the bear's movements.

The bear was running through the woods on the left side of Wenquangou, diagonally heading southeast, and it seemed that it was planning to go through the woods to the mountain to find a place to heal its wounds.

At this moment, the bear's movements also slowed down. After all, there was a knife in its lower abdomen, and it had no time to take the knife out.

It was about twenty meters away from Li Long. Li Long was chasing after the bear, panting, and kept closing the distance between him and the bear!
In just a short while, Li Long felt that the extreme pulling, which might have lasted no more than ten minutes, had already exhausted most of his strength.

If he hadn't taken a break while putting on his shoes and fiddling with his gun, Li Long felt that he might not even have the strength to chase the bear.

He realized as he ran that the bear must have seen that only the part above his chest was exposed in the pool and thought that his body was relatively small, so it was so bold to chase him.

If I were standing with my whole body exposed, and my head was similar to the bear's, the bear would definitely hesitate if it wanted to attack me.

Seeing the bear not far ahead, its movements were a bit clumsy, completely lacking the flexibility and bravery that it had just used to pounce on him. I guess the bear was almost out of strength after those few hits just now.

Li Long saw a gap in front of him and there were only a few trees between the bear and himself. He stopped immediately, aimed at the bear and fired a shot!
The bullet hit the bear's right shoulder. The bear fell to the ground, then struggled to get up, turned its head and roared at Li Long, then rushed into the woods again - this time it was on all fours, its body was much shorter, and Li Long's shot missed.

Li Long felt relieved when he found out that the gun fired. He had heard that this series of guns were very durable before. But when he caught up with them just now, he still felt a little nervous and worried that something might go wrong. Now it seems that he was overthinking.

This gun is useful!
Li Long once again strode after him, even though his body was scratched with many red marks by the branches - the mountain breeze occasionally blew over, and he felt a chill, but he couldn't care less.

He saw an opportunity and shot again. The distance between the bear and him had shortened a lot after being shot, and this time the bullet hit the bear's left ear.

The bear was shot but it wasn't dead yet!

This thing has such a strong vitality!
Li Long felt that if things continued like this, he would probably lose the bear skin, so he had to resolve the issue as soon as possible!

He ran a few steps, not caring about the bloody cut on the outside of his right thigh caused by a branch. He looked at a relatively open area where he could see the entire back of the bear. Li Long raised his gun and shot steadily:

"Bang bang bang!"

Three shots were fired in succession, two of which hit the bear's head and one missed. The bear fell to the ground and didn't move.

Li Long breathed a sigh of relief—finally he killed him!
It’s so fucking hard to beat!

Only then did Li Long feel the burning pain all over his body!

He first looked at the places scratched by the bear's claws. To Li Long's surprise, the blood had already clotted on the wounds on his left chest and left arm. The movement of running while shooting just now had caused some pulling, and a little blood had seeped out, but it didn't have much impact.

Apart from this place, the injuries in other places were minor. He felt that it was not serious, so he opened the bayonet on the gun and rushed towards the bear with the gun.

There was a large pool of blood on the ground, probably from the place where the bear's belly was pierced by itself. Not only here, but also the place where the bear was shot was bleeding.

Li Long couldn't hear the bear's breathing, but he didn't dare to be careless. From three meters away from the bear, he pointed his gun at the back of the bear's head and fired another shot.

When the bullet hit the bear's head, the bear just moved its head and seemed to be dead.

Li Long finally felt relieved. He walked over with his gun in hand and poked the bear's body with the gun. Then he put the gun down, grabbed the bear's left paws with both hands, and turned the bear over with great effort.

"Damn, it's really heavy." Li Long complained.

This bear must weigh over 200 kilograms. It doesn't look very fat, it must have just woken up from hibernation and its fat has been consumed. It is now eager to replenish energy, so it is targeting me.

The knife was found - the blade had completely penetrated the bear's belly and blood was gushing out.

With a fishy smell, Li Long sat next to the bear and looked at it carefully.

It's a big bear, about 1.8 meters tall from head to tail. Although it's not very fat, it's definitely taller than me.

The fur on its body was covered with mud and grass leaves, which looked ugly.

Spring fur is not as good as winter fur. At this time, many animals begin to shed their fur, and the fur color is mixed, which does not look very good.

After resting for about ten minutes, Li Long felt cold. He knew he couldn't stay there any longer, but his clothes had been wet from the fight. He thought about it and decided to just take a knife and start skinning the bear.

The bear was so heavy that it would be difficult for him to drag it from the forest to the jeep, so he decided to skin and gut it first. He would take away the important parts, and even if the rest was eaten by something else, it would not be a pity.

Skinning and disemboweling were very easy tasks for Li Long, and he quickly removed the four bear paws - the bear paws were not very fat at this time, but they were just right for Li Long.

Bear paws are too fat in autumn and winter to be eaten.

The next thing was the bear gall. When he opened the bear's stomach and took out the gall, Li Long found that it was not as big as he had imagined. It felt about the same size as his fist.

But it doesn’t matter, it’s better to have it than not.

Four bear paws and a bear gall. Li Long originally wanted to peel off the bear skin, but he felt tired at this time, so he decided to go back and put on his clothes first.

He found some vines in the woods and tied the bear paws together. Then he held the gun in one hand and the bear paw in the other. As for the bear gall, there was no place to put it, so he could only hold it in his mouth.

It's okay to suffer a little, who told me that I have nothing to wear at this time?

After taking a look at the bear's body, Li Long strode back.

The safety of his gun was still on at this time, and he was worried that something would suddenly pop up again like just now.

Remember this in the future: you really can’t relax for even a moment in the mountains!

After arriving at the hot spring pool, Li Long put down the bear paw, took out his clothes that were stuck in the mud and water, and took out the things inside, especially the car keys.

Put the things aside, clean the clothes in clear water, wring them out and put them on - it doesn't matter if they're a little cool, it's better than having nothing to wear.

People are used to wearing clothes, and even in the wild where there is no one around, it would be very uncomfortable to be without clothes.

He put on his clothes, picked up his gun and bear paw, and walked quickly out of the ditch - in less than half an hour, he arrived at the jeep.

The sun rose, but Li Long could not feel any warmth. He quickly opened the jeep, took out his spare clothes from it, and put them on - although it was only a coat, he felt warm as soon as he put them on.

He found some branches and hung the clothes he had taken off beside the car to dry. Li Long put the bear paws and bear gall into the car, took out two bags, locked the car door, reloaded the gun with bullets, and walked back.

We finally managed to kill the bear, we can’t just throw it away.

The wounds on his body didn’t hurt as much anymore - Li Long felt that his recovery ability was pretty good, better than that of ordinary people.

When he returned to the bear, Li Long saw several small animals running away after hearing the noise.

It’s okay, didn’t attract any big guys.

Now it is much easier to skin the bear.

There are several holes in the bear skin. The ones caused by a knife are better, so they can be peeled off along the way. But the ones caused by a gunshot at the back are no longer worth it.

But for such a big bear skin, a few bullet holes are nothing.

Li Long spent nearly an hour skinning the bear, and in the process, he cut the meat into pieces and put them into his pockets.

As for the bear's internal organs, they were just thrown here - there wasn't much fat in its stomach, so Li Long searched through it and put it into his pocket - after all, if he took it back and stewed it, it would be considered meat.

There were two pockets, one for bear skin and the other for bear meat. In other words, Li Long had taken the four bear paws back in advance. Otherwise, he might not have been able to move them back without damaging the wounds.

Li Long was carrying a bag on his back and another bag in his hand, so he could only hang the gun upside down on his chest and then walked back.

There were still a lot of things on the bear, so they were left here.

Dust to dust, dust to dust.

When he returned to the hot spring, Li Long took a rest and found a cleaner puddle to wash his head again.

I was covered in mud when I fought the bear before. When I changed my clothes just now, I simply rinsed the mud off. Now that I have some free time, I will clean myself up.

He didn't want his family to see him in such a miserable state.

Fortunately, the wound has basically healed now, so there is no need to worry about being discovered. Just be careful in the next few days and it will be almost invisible.

He didn't want his family to know that he was injured.

After washing his hair, Li Long looked at the messy hot spring pool in front of him with a wry smile. He decided to come over and refurbish it when he had time, otherwise it would be troublesome to take a bath in it next time.

Fortunately, smearing mud was not a big deal for him and it didn't take much effort to do it.

When he returned to the jeep, the clothes were half dry. Li Long simply put the clothes away and drove the jeep to the wooden house.

It's already noon, and it's too late to go back for lunch. It's better to have a meal here, take a rest, and heal my injuries at the same time.

The wooden house was still a bit messy. The wooden floor in front of the house was covered with dust, weeds and rotten leaves. The two stoves also showed signs of being damaged - fortunately, they were not completely destroyed.

The wooden table that served as a chopping board was also covered in dust and had a few claw marks. I didn't know what had jumped on it and walked around.

The door of the wooden house was locked tightly and no one had broken into it.

After getting off the car, Li Long went to the shed and got a large broom that had not been taken away by anyone, and swept the wooden floor in front of the house. Then he opened the door and let out the moisture while preparing to get the pot and light the fire.

He moved slowly, just thinking of recovering his energy while working.

Thinking about what happened just now, I am really scared.

If I had reacted a little slower, I would have become food for the hungry bear.

This thing can be eaten raw or cold. (End of this chapter)
