Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain
Chapter 643: Scouting the King of Hell
That morning, the villagers who were mobilized to go into the mountains to dig holes continued to dig soil for the unfinished pits according to Wang Yansheng's arrangement yesterday.
Not long after dawn in the morning, the villagers drove into the mountains in a mighty procession on Jiefang trucks.
We had already worked a whole day yesterday, so everyone was much more relaxed. Familiar villagers were playing and joking while working at the bottom of the pit.
As mentioned before, in this season, it is very difficult to dig a hole with tools such as a pickaxe or a shovel. The frozen soil will only leave a white spot when you swing the pickaxe, and it will be impossible to dig it out.
If you want to speed up the digging efficiency, you must make a fire under the pit.
In order to make a fire, you must collect branches and firewood.
Yesterday, we had almost collected all the dead branches and other things near the pit. The pit had not been fully dug yet, and we needed firewood, so we had to arrange for people to collect it from a farther location.
When Wang Yansheng assigned tasks to everyone yesterday, he reminded them to be careful and not to act alone.
But nothing happened yesterday, so the villagers gradually relaxed their vigilance.
At the location of the trap pit near a jumping stone pond, three villagers followed the instructions of the team leader and went around to collect wood for starting the fire.
"You two are going to the sunny slope of the southern ridge? Then I'll go to the east. There should be dead pine trees there. It should be enough for me to chop down a few of them and bring them back!" Villager A said to his companions with a hand axe in his hand.
Villager B hesitated and said, "Secretary Sun told Boss Wang that we can't act alone! Why don't you come with us to the south? It's just a ridge, not far!"
"How could a tiger take me away in broad daylight? You guys go do whatever you want. I'm just staying at the bottom of the jumping stone pond. I'm sure I'll be fine!"
"Okay then, be careful!"
"rest assured!"
After a few brief greetings, Villager A carried a small hatchet and walked towards the location of the dead pine tree he had observed yesterday.
In the pine forest, a black tiger was lazily lying on its side in the snow. Suddenly, its ears moved slightly, and it immediately stood up from its side-lying position and adjusted itself to a front-lying position.
Logically speaking, a tiger with a color as black as ink should be very conspicuous in an icy and snowy environment.
But the black tiger lay on the ground, as if it had no bones, and its body almost blended into the dark tree trunks, making it completely inconspicuous.
The unlucky Villager A who acted on his own was humming a little tune as he walked forward. He felt like he had to pee, so he unbuckled his belt and urinated.
He shuddered, and before he could even pull up his belt, he felt a gust of fishy wind blowing from behind, as if someone had pinched the back of his neck with a large iron pliers. He was stood up and pinned to the ground by the Black Tiger man who attacked him.
Speaking of which, this guy wasn't destined to die. The black tiger wanted to bite his neck at the first moment, but this villager was wearing an old sheepskin coat and a hat made of dog skin.
The black tiger didn't bite firmly, but grabbed the collar of the sheepskin coat.
The panicked villager was holding a small hatchet in his hand. When he was attacked, he swung the hatchet randomly as a conditioned reflex and happened to hit Heihu.
This wild animal was extremely cautious. After failing to hit its target with its first strike and being hit by a small hand axe, it immediately gave up hunting, turned around and fled towards the distant forest.
Villager A, who had walked through the gates of hell, was so frightened when he saw the tiger running away that his legs went limp.
After five full seconds, he finally cried out in a sobbing voice: "Fuck! Help! There's a tiger!!!"
The location where the pit was dug in Tiaoshitang was less than 200 meters away from where the villager was attacked. When they heard someone shouting for help, everyone immediately rushed over with pickaxes, shovels and other tools.
Villager A peed on his cotton pants and couldn't even stand on the tree trunk. He was completely numb from fear.
Soon, the team leader lit the firecrackers to send the message as agreed. Upon hearing the signal, Wang Yansheng and the hunting team rushed over as quickly as possible.
……
On the other side, Yue Feng, along with the three brothers Xiao Tao and Xiao Wu, did not act with Wang Yansheng and Qian Xuegang's hunting team members today.
These people seemed to be quite polite to Yue Feng in person, but behind his back they did not seem to be the same kind of people.
When Yue Feng brought his two brothers here in the morning, their hunting team had already split into two groups and went up the mountain in advance, leaving no one waiting for Yue Feng and his team.
It’s just right that he doesn’t have to wait. Yue Feng himself doesn’t expect to get much help from them. He has already had a preliminary understanding of the surrounding map environment last night. He just needs to go to the mountain himself and take a walk around the relevant terrain.
Yue Feng and his two brothers rode a three-wheeled motorcycle into the mountains, parked at the parking space according to the route they took yesterday, and then walked towards the forest.
The main purpose of coming here today is to take a trip to Yanwangwaizi.
We brothers can easily determine the direction in the mountains. We also have an eagle, a lead dog and three Type 56 semi-automatic rifles with us, so we are not afraid of the possible sneak attack by the tiger.
"Brother, do you think this black tiger will turn around and run away if we run into it?"
Xiao Tao asked casually, with a gun on his shoulder and a newly made hunting fork in his hand.
Yue Feng glanced at Xiao Tao with a smile.
"A tiger's hearing is much better than ours. If it doesn't want to show up, we won't be able to catch it at our speed! Why, are you a little nervous?"
Xiao Tao waved the hunting fork in his hand and said with a smile: "I'm not nervous, but we need to capture them alive, so there is not much room for us to play!
If we don't care about life or death, we can just let Canglong follow the trail and chase it. When the time comes, the brave will win. If it dares not to run, we can kill it with a few shots!"
"Come on, that's a tiger, not a roe deer or a wild boar!
It doesn't matter if you show off now, but you'd better be careful when you go to Yanwangweizi later, so as not to step on air and fall into the snow pit!" Xiaowu couldn't help but complain.
The three brothers were walking slowly with their dog, when Yue Feng suddenly stopped.
"Stop, at three o'clock in front of you! There seem to be a few roe deer!"
Yue Feng spoke in a low voice as he took the gun off his shoulder.
When Xiao Tao and Xiao Wu heard this, they stopped arguing and immediately took off the safety of their guns and searched for the roe deer that Yue Feng mentioned.
Near due west, about less than 200 meters away, there were indeed a few roe deer feeding on branches halfway up the sunny slope.
The relative relationship between the two was almost parallel to the direction of the mountain wind, so the roe deer did not notice many people.
Roe deer are not a rare prey for the Yue Feng brothers, but if they come across one in the mountains, they will never give up the opportunity to hunt it.
Even if the few of them didn't have much demand for roe deer meat, there were still hunting dogs and bears, so they wouldn't have to ask the waiter to help them prepare to go into the water when they brought them back.
"I've locked it, first one on the left!"
"The first one on my right!"
"I'll hit the one in the middle! Shoot all three at once!
3, 2, 1, fire! ! "
At Yue Feng's command, three Type 56 semi-automatic rifles fired almost simultaneously, pulling the trigger towards the roe deer in the distance.
Looking at the small group of four roe deer, at the moment the gunshot rang out, one on the left jumped high and fell to the ground.
The first one on the right side had snowflakes of water flying around its feet, but it missed. The heart-shaped white hair on its tail turned outward and it fled in panic into the distance.
As for the two in the middle that Yue Feng locked onto, one was shot through the chest and fell to the ground after running a few steps.
When Yue Feng adjusted the muzzle to find the next one, the alert little roe deer actually jumped from the middle of the ditch to the bottom of the ditch with a few leaps. In the blink of an eye, it was out of the gunner's sight.
The gunshot was an order. The big black eagle and the little white spear that had been following in the sky swooped down immediately and chased the two roe deer that had escaped. Xiao Tao missed the scared roe deer and it ran into the woods. He missed it several times after that. The woods were dense and the eagle could not land. He could only chase the other roe deer that was running away at the bottom of the ditch.
This little fellow, born that spring, didn't run far before Little White Spear swooped down and kicked him in the lower back.
The little roe deer lost its balance while running, and before it could regain its balance and get up, the big black eagle kicked it again with great force, directly hitting the back of its head behind its ear.
The kick hit the little roe deer's vitals, and the little roe deer was suffocated headfirst into the snow crust, its ears bleeding, and it was clearly dying.
"Damn it! I shot a little too low!" Xiao Tao couldn't help but say in annoyance.
"Hey, mine hit the target!"
"Mine hit too!"
Brothers Yue Feng and Xiao Wu laughed and chased forward with guns in hand.
Canglong, who had been tied with a rope, became extremely excited after hearing the gunshot. The dog chain was stretched straight, but Yue Feng refused to let go.
When Gouzi saw the roe deer running deep into the woods, he wanted to break free from the rope and continue chasing it, but Yue Feng hit him on the forehead.
"Behave yourself! Don't chase me!"
Well, the dog stopped showing off and obediently followed his owner to clean up the battlefield.
Of the four roe deer squad, two were killed with two shots, and a young roe deer was kicked to death by an eagle. Only a young roe deer of medium size escaped.
If he really wanted to chase it, there would be a high probability that he would have a chance to keep the lucky one, but Yue Feng knew that the main purpose of going up the mountain today was not to hunt roe deer. There would be no point in chasing it and catching one more roe deer.
So Yue Feng blew a few whistles and called back the black and white falcons that had taken off into the sky again.
The prey is gutted and bled, then the fresh internal organs are cut out and fed to the eagle and the dog.
After a busy work, the remaining internal organs of the three roe deer were not kept and were hung on a tree to worship the mountain god.
The three brothers used the ropes in their bags to tie a roe deer's hind legs each, and continued forward, dragging the roe deer with its internal organs removed.
On the other side, Qian Xuegang and Wang Yansheng, who heard a series of gunshots, almost turned their heads at the same time to look in the direction of the gunshots.
"Old Qian, what happened? Who fired the gun?" Wang Yansheng asked solemnly.
Qian Xuegang replied: "It should be the young leaders from Fengcheng, right? They didn't follow the team today and are free to move around!"
"The villagers who were working were almost dragged away by a tiger, but they still had the leisure to hunt! They have such a big heart!" A middle-aged hunter with a beard named Liu couldn't help but complain.
Wang Yansheng's eyes were a little serious, and after thinking for a few seconds, he said: "Lao Liu, take the three brothers, take the dog, and go find Xiao Yue and the others!
Tell them that a villager was attacked by a tiger just now, and ask them to be careful! "
"What if they don't come back?"
"It's enough to remind you, and I won't force you to come back if you don't want me to!"
"it is good!"
Wang Yansheng continued, "Others, don't just stand there. Follow the footprints left by the tiger and continue to chase its escape! See which direction it ran in!
This guy is too cunning. We hunters had no chance to guard against him, but he actually set his sights on the villagers who were working!"
"Boss Wang, I'll take my men to chase them!" Qian Xuegang said.
"Okay, be careful!"
……
On the other side, the two brothers Yue Feng, dragging the roe deer they had hunted, headed in the predetermined direction towards Yanwangwaizi.
After crossing two mountain ridges in succession, a very large canyon soon appeared in front of us.
The distance between the two ridges in this canyon is at least twice as wide as the previous ridges.
Looking around, the lower side of the shady slope looks as smooth as jade, just like flat ground.
"The place below should be Yanwangweizi! Xiaotao, give me the hunting fork, I'll go down and try it!" Yue Feng called out.
"Or else, should I do it?" Xiao Tao asked.
"No, tie a rope around my waist, and if I miss a step, pull me up!"
"it is good!"
Yue Feng tied a rope around his waist, then carefully walked down the ridge along the shady side of the slope.
Walk a few steps forward and try to carefully explore the way with a hunting fork.
At first it was relatively stable, with the normal snow crust thickness of only thirty to forty centimeters.
When he reached a position about two meters from the bottom of the ditch, he lowered the hunting fork downwards and found that the two-meter-long hunting fork pole was almost sunk to the bottom.
Yue Feng did not test the bearing capacity of the snow shell. He moved it horizontally and changed the direction, and then tested it again.
The depth of the snow below ranges from one and a half meters to two meters. Because there are no animals or human activities, the snow crust remains relatively intact.
Yue Feng leaned over and used his hands to peel off the snow crust on the surface. After a rough observation, he gained a preliminary understanding of the state of snow melting on the shady slope.
The situation is slightly more optimistic than expected. The surface of the snow shell seems normal, but when you peel it off, you can see the original flaky structure, which has become powdery and irregular snow particles after being heated, thawed and condensed.
As long as the temperature rises for a few more days, the snow shell will melt further, and the day when the tiger is trapped is just around the corner.
"Let's go, pull me up, let's go back!" Yue Feng called.
Soon, brothers Xiao Tao and Xiao Wu pulled Yue Feng up using the rope.
"What do you think, Brother Feng? Will the trick that Uncle Zhao and Uncle Wu have researched work?" Xiao Tao asked curiously.
"It shouldn't be a big problem. The snow foam under the snow shell has obviously loosened up a lot. If the temperature rises for a few more days, it will definitely melt!"
"There are still eight or nine days left. Is that enough?" Xiaowu also asked.
"It should be possible. The ground below has already been cultivated. Let's change direction and go to another part of the mountain that we haven't visited yet!"
"it is good!"
A few people changed direction and dragged the killed roe deer along another unfamiliar mountain pond.
On the other side, Liu Baotou and a few of his friends, fully armed, chased in the direction.
Soon, they found the first scene of the gun hunting of roe deer.
Seeing the three roe deer bodies that had not yet frozen solid with their entire internal organs put into the water and most of their intestines and stomachs hanging on the tree almost untouched, Liu Baotou could not help but sigh in his heart.
These young hunters are good at shooting, but isn't this a waste? Don't they even want to go into the water? (End of this chapter)
