Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain

Chapter 572: Chicken for Leopard

"What the hell! What the hell is going on!"

Almost at the moment when the whistle was heard, Yue Feng and the other two grasped their weapons at the same time.

"Is it a bear, Brother Feng? It doesn't look like it!!" Xiao Tao asked as he tilted his head and listened to the noise.

Yue Feng frowned slightly: "It's not a bear, it should be a leopard!!
Be careful, this thing is no joke!"

"Leopard? The two leopards we killed in Woniu Mountain last time didn't make this kind of cry!"

Xiaowu was a little confused when he heard this. The difference between this voice and the one in his memory was quite obvious.

Yue Feng explained: "I heard from Uncle Zhao that the calls of male and female leopards are different!
Although we haven't heard it with our own ears, if you listen carefully to the position of the last ending tone, don't they sound a bit similar?
The roar of a male leopard is deeper than that of a female leopard, and sounds more powerful! "

After this analysis, it seems that this is indeed the case.

When Xiao Tao heard that it was Leopard, he grabbed the spear in his hand and said, "Brother, what should we do?"

Yue Feng thought about it quickly and said, "Don't panic. If it is really a leopard, it is most likely confronting the black eagle now!

Our most important thing is to avoid exposing our position and alerting the enemy, and then strive to kill them with one strike!"

"That thing has such a keen sense of hearing, can we hide it?"

"Try your best! Its attention may not be on us!

Is it possible that the big black eagle kicked the eagle owl down from the sky, and it happened to fall near the leopard, and then the eagle and the leopard started fighting!
This kind of head-on opportunity is very rare, and it is possible that the battle will end with just one bullet!

Follow me, keep your feet steady, and don't make a sound! ! "

There was indeed something wrong with what Yue Feng said, because he had had similar experiences.

When Yue Feng followed his uncle into the mountains to hunt eagles in Lincheng, he once killed a tiger cub that he encountered head-on on the way down the mountain.

At that time, the lynx was squatting on the bluestone at the bottom of the ditch eating and did not notice Yue Feng. Yue Feng put the gun to its face and hit it with two bullets, ending the battle with one shot.

It's just like picking up a rabbit on the side of the road, with almost no effort.

Now there is a big black hawk distracting and attracting attention. If we are lucky, there will be a similar opportunity this time.

Yue Feng really said it.

This adult male leopard was resting in a warm tree hole under the bushes when suddenly a big fox came in.

Faced with this kind of 'takeout' delivered to the door, the leopard bit off the fox's head in one bite and swallowed the fresh flesh and blood into its stomach in just a few bites.

In no time, it ate the giant eagle owl that came to its door. Outside the cave, the big leopard poked its head out and roared in a demonstrative manner, which attracted the attention of Yue Feng's three brothers in advance.

The big black eagle squatting on the treetop was quite surprised to hear the threatening roar of the leopard.

He was clearly chasing a free-range chicken here, but how come the free-range chicken hid under the bushes and turned into a big leopard?

Accidents aside, the big black eagle is not afraid of the leopard.

What a joke! Last winter, a big tiger weighing four or five hundred kilograms and a big black eagle brought their little brothers to kill me. Now that it has landed on the top of a tree, how could it be afraid of a leopard below?

Haha haha ​​haha!

The big black eagle responded to the roaring threat with a series of rapid-fire squawks.

Compared with the previous calls, this call clearly contained a series of provocations and threats.

The meaning is simple: I'm not afraid of you, come up if you dare!
Faced with the provocation, the leopard looked up at the big black eagle landing on the treetop and roared again.

roar~~~~
Hearing the second low roar, the two Yue Feng brothers stopped in tacit understanding.

The real person hasn't been seen yet. At this moment, the distance between the two sides is probably about 70 or 80 meters.

Although the forest is not very crowded, the trees of varying thicknesses grow naturally, and the visibility in the forest is not very good.

You definitely can't continue moving forward at this time. If you don't walk well, you might get frightened.

Yue Feng snorted softly, and the three brothers stood there like human statues.

The big black eagle on the treetop in the distance still refused to give in and kept on screaming.

The leopard standing on the ground growled a few times, then suddenly leaned forward and exerted force, and climbed up the tree trunk in a few jumps.

When the two sides were at their closest point, the leopard was less than five meters away from the black eagle.

The big black eagle also reacted very quickly. When it discovered something unusual below, it spread its wings and flew up immediately.

The leopard climbed up a tree and the eagle flew in circles above its head.

It made a quack sound as it flew.

The leopard lay on a branch as thick as his wrist, looking at the provocative black eagle, angry but helpless.

Even tigers can't do anything to black eagles, let alone leopards.

The existence of wings makes top birds of prey naturally invincible in head-on confrontations with terrestrial beasts.

According to the normal scenario of an encounter between a wild bird of prey and a leopard, as long as the leopard launches a surprise attack and the eagle dodges and flies away, the leopard should come down from the tree and return to its nest or leave, because there is no practical point in continuing the confrontation.

But now the Big Black Hawk has no intention of giving up the confrontation.

Not only did it keep squawking like crazy, it also took advantage of the moment when the leopard was about to turn around and climb down the tree, and folded its wings to make a feint attack.

The eagle claw did not kick the leopard, but it provoked the leopard's anger again.

The leopard turned around and returned to the branches near the top of the tree.

On the other side, Yue Feng and his two brothers definitely couldn’t see the leopard under the tree because there were so many tree trunks of varying thicknesses blocking its view.

The leopard climbed up the tree, and there was a big black eagle screaming overhead, which made it much easier to spot. The three Yue Feng brothers stood still for at least ten seconds, then slowly walked forward another ten meters with their guns.

Soon, Xiao Tao was the first to discover the leopard lying on a branch halfway up the tree.

He pulled Yue Feng's sleeve and pointed to the location.

Yue Feng looked over and nodded at Xiao Tao.

Xiaowu, who was standing next to him, followed Xiaotao's movements and also discovered the leopard on the tree.

Yue Feng lowered his voice and said, "Aim at the upper waist, preferably near the head.

A stab below the eye will lead to the neck and torso. Count to three, and shoot together!"

"it is good!"

"3"

"2"

"1, shoot!"

boom!boom!
Bang bang bang!
The two 56 and a half rifles spewed out flames almost at the same time, and the metal jets of the 7.62mm medium-power bullets flew towards the leopard in the tree with huge kinetic energy.

The leopard, which had been looking up at the roaring black eagle a second ago, suddenly stiffened as if it had been acupunctured. A cloud of blood mist burst out from its head and neck almost at the same time, and then it fell from the tree trunk with convulsions on its limbs.

Something weighing a little over a hundred pounds fell from the tree, hitting the middle branch with a crackling sound, and when it hit the ground, it splashed a lot of snow foam.

"Shit! I hit it, the leopard fell from the tree!!"

Xiaowu muttered excitedly.

Yue Feng still held the gun without turning off the safety, turned on the headlight and shone it forward: "Let's go and take a look under the tree!"

The three brothers hurried to the bottom of the tree, and saw a large, colorful leopard, already dead.

A large amount of dark red blood oozed out from under his body, dyeing the snow shell on the ground red.

Xiao Tao tentatively touched the corpse on the ground with the handle of his knife. The leopard did not move, so he slowly relaxed.

He thrust the knife handle under the corpse and pushed it upward, successfully tipping the corpse over.

Now, the location where the leopard was shot was revealed.

A bullet hit his head, the top of his skull was blown off and half of his head was shattered.

The other shot hit the neck where the head meets the torso.

He was also shot in the middle of the neck, leaving a bloody hole the size of a fist, with the cervical vertebra broken and only a small amount of flesh and tendons left on the edge.

"One bullet in the head and one in the neck, the skin is intact!!!" Xiao Tao said excitedly.

Yue Feng was also very happy. He bent down and carefully observed other parts of the leopard's body.

Thanks to the fact that the leopard fell freely from the tree after being killed by the first two shots, and the subsequent rifle bullets did not hit the target, there were no bullet holes on the leopard's torso.

Another complete piece of leather!

"Fuck it, we're in trouble now! Look at this big leopard, it's so fucking beautiful!"

"Where is that hateful fox? Didn't the big black eagle chase the hateful fox?" Xiaowu looked around the leopard and became a little confused.

Yue Feng grinned and said: "What a hateful fox! We followed the big black eagle out for a stroll at night. It would be a shame if we picked up a big leopard for free!

"Xiao Tao, do you have a skinning knife? Skin the leopard while it's still warm. It will be frozen solid when you drag it back to the camp!"

"I have it with me. Hang the headlight on the tree and adjust the angle. I will start skinning you!"

Xiao Tao bent down and wiped his calf, then took a wide-bladed skinning knife in his hand.

Yue Feng and Xiao Wu took off their headlamps and adjusted the angles, then whistled at the big black eagle in the sky.

The next second, the big black eagle that had been hovering above his head swooped down and landed accurately on Yue Feng's arm.

quack quack quack

The big black eagle seemed to know that this leopard was extremely precious. After its owner successfully shot and killed the target, it was extremely excited, as if it had forgotten the threat from the annoying eagle owl.

"Big Black Hawk is awesome! This time it's all thanks to you! Wait until Xiao Tao guts the leopard and I'll give you some meat!"

Yue Feng touched the head and chest, and said all kinds of compliments, giving the working eagle a full-scale pua.

Soon Xiao Tao opened the chest of his prey and took out various odds and ends.

While he was pinching his stomach and exerting force, a piece of bird's beak with a hook pierced through the stomach and stabbed Xiao Tao's hand.

"What the hell is in this leopard's stomach! It's prickly!"

Xiao Tao took a look and used the blade of a knife to enlarge the wound and dug out the broken skull of the eagle owl that he had just swallowed, along with its beak.

"Brother, the eagle owl that the big black eagle was chasing seemed to have been killed by the leopard!"

When they heard the call, they all lowered their heads to check, especially Yue Feng, who examined it carefully with a small stick and found that it was indeed the skull of an eagle owl.

The leopard could chew up other parts, but the eagle's beak was made of tough bone and still maintained its general shape.

Now the case is solved.

No wonder the big black eagle was squatting on the tree and didn't go back. It was because its prey was robbed by the leopard and it was waiting for someone to come and avenge it.

Exchanging an eagle owl for a complete male leopard, this business is a big profit no matter how you look at it.
