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

"Black Tiger! Come here!" Yue Feng waved and called out to the dog.

Hearing its master call, Black Tiger scurried over rather clumsily. Despite being bruised and battered, it still wagged its tail at Yue Feng.

What bad intentions could a dog possibly have? Even when injured, it still puts its owner first.

When the dog came closer, Yue Feng squatted down and carefully examined the dog's face and forelegs, his brows furrowing slightly.

The scratches have penetrated the skin.

Although this injury is not fatal, it will definitely require stitches.

After a slight hesitation, Yue Feng took out the hemostatic powder he always carried with him from his satchel.

"It hurts a little, just bear with it. We'll give you a more thorough treatment when we get back to camp!"

Yue Feng stroked the dog's head to comfort it, then opened the packet of hemostatic powder and poured it onto the dog's wound little by little.

The hemostatic powder has a slightly irritating effect, and the dog, feeling the pain, immediately started whimpering.

Yue Feng kept stroking the dog's head and whispering comforting words until he had sprinkled medicine powder all over the wounds before he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

We can't chase after it any further; the dog's wounds need to be stitched up as soon as possible.

Whether it's a Siberian leopard or a tiger cub, they are both very difficult prey to deal with.

They've already broken off contact, and even if we chase after them immediately, we might not be able to catch up.

First, we'll deal with the prey we caught and the dog's injuries. As for the rest, we'll talk about it later!

Having made up his mind, Yue Feng turned around and walked back with his four dogs.

When they reached the little yellow-haired wild boar hanging in the tree, Yue Feng stuffed the already cooled offal back into the boar's belly, tied a rope to the boar's hind legs, and dragged the boar back along the rope.

This chase turned out to be a losing proposition; the dog was injured, and all they got was this small, yellow-haired wild boar weighing less than 100 pounds.

When they returned to the scene, Xiao Tao, Xiao Wen, and Xiao Wu had already gathered up all the wild boars they had killed and had bled and gutted most of them.

"Brother, you only caught up with a little pig?" Xiao Tao asked curiously when he saw Yue Feng dragging the blond-haired guy.

Yue Feng nodded, somewhat annoyed, and said, "The dog chased the pig too far and seemed to have run into a Siberian leopard or a tiger cub! So I brought the dog back!"

"Huh? A tiger cub? Why don't you keep chasing it?"

"Black Tiger is injured! He probably got scratched, and the skin went right through!" Yue Feng said truthfully.

"Holy crap! The dog's hurt? Let me check!"

Xiao Tao didn't even bother to clean the pig's offal; he put down his prey, got up, and went over to it.

Upon hearing this, Xiaowen and Xiaowu put down what they were doing and came over to check on the dog's injuries.

When they saw the everted wound, they all gasped in shock.

The scratches have penetrated the skin. If the scratches had been positioned even slightly closer to the neck, trachea, or carotid artery, the dog might have lost its life.

"Damn it! Look how badly Black Tiger was hurt!" Xiaowen reached out and patted the dog, his brows furrowing with heartache.

Yue Feng: "As long as we didn't lose our lives, it's not a big loss! As for the wild boars that got away, let them go! We won't chase them for now!"

The sutures for the wound, along with the anti-inflammatory and disinfectant, are all in the tent. I need to go back to camp first!

Xiao Tao nodded: "Okay, you take the dog back first! We remember the way, and treating the dog's external injuries is the priority!"

After we've processed all the wild boar, we'll use a sled to haul the game back. It should only take two or three trips at most!

"I'll head back now! Be careful!"

"rest assured!"

……

After saying goodbye, Yue Feng dragged the yellow-haired wild boar back home.

Large wild boars require a sled to pull, but this light-skinned one is lightweight and pulling it back won't affect the speed much.

Throughout the journey, Yue Feng remained calm. No one wants their dog to get hurt, but when hunting in the mountains, it's inevitable that dogs will get injured.

This time, we were lucky, and Yue Feng was decisive enough.

If the dog is allowed to continue fighting with that unknown prey, the consequences will not be as simple as the injury the dog sustained from that claw.

It took about 45 minutes to walk back, and everything was normal at the campsite.

Yue Feng brought the dog back to the tent, and the first thing he did was to blow his whistle to call down the big black eagle and the little white spear in the sky.

The two eagles were basically useless in the red pine forest, but they kept following overhead and hadn't been fed yet, even though it was early in the morning.

Upon hearing their master's whistle, the two eagles immediately folded their wings and landed.

Yue Feng cut off the heart and lungs from the offal of the yellow-haired wild boar, and gave a large piece of fresh internal organs to an eagle. He then placed the eagle on a tree stump at the entrance of the tent and let it eat.

After quickly taking care of the eagle, Yue Feng turned and went into the tent, taking out instruments and equipment for treating external injuries from his medical kit.

Suture needles, thread, skin clippers for prepping, sterile cotton cloth, hydrogen peroxide, Yunnan Baiyao (a traditional Chinese medicine), and bandages for bandaging.

After taking stock and setting up the equipment, Yue Feng called Black Tiger over, grabbed a few pine sticks to use as a stool, sat down, and began to carefully process the equipment.

First, use the shaving clippers to clean the fur on both sides of the dog's wound close to the skin. Then, use a cotton swab dipped in hydrogen peroxide to clean the blood and debris from the wound.

The wound, which had been treated with styptic powder, had temporarily stopped bleeding and clotted, but it was still mixed with a lot of rotten leaves, dirt, and other filth.

Yue Feng carefully cleaned the wound and then began to stitch it up little by little with a suture needle.

To be honest, Yue Feng had only done sewing once or twice, and in terms of skill, he was not as good as his master, Zhao Dashan.

But now that his own dog was injured and needed treatment, Yue Feng was more than willing to step up.

Even if the speed is a little slow, it still needs to be dealt with, otherwise the subsequent recovery will be a big problem.

Fortunately, these hunting dogs are all relatively obedient, well-behaved, and intelligent dogs.

Black Tiger knew its master was treating its injuries, so it lay there and let Yue Feng handle it however he wanted. Even when it was in a lot of pain, it only whimpered a couple of times and didn't even try to dodge.

Yue Feng, this mediocre veterinarian, painstakingly stitched up the wound, then sprinkled Yunnan Baiyao (a traditional Chinese medicine), wrapped it with cotton wool, and finally put on a bandage. He was sweating profusely from all the work before he finally finished treating the dog's injury.

It was a perfectly healthy black dog, but its head and front legs were wrapped in a lot of bandages. Anyone who didn't know better would think it was seriously injured.

After treating the dogs' external injuries, Yue Feng breathed a sigh of relief, dragged the yellow-haired wild boar over, and fed the four dogs the remaining wild boar offal, along with some pork.

The four dogs ate until their bellies were round and full. Yue Feng turned his head and glanced at the big black eagle and the little white spear squatting next to him wiping their mouths.

The two eagles had also filled their bellies; now both the eagles and the dogs had been served.

Yue Feng tied the four dogs to the entrance of the camp. Then, he mounted the hawk and turned back towards the location where he had hunted the pigs.

More people mean more strength. There are so many pigs; dragging them back won't be a small task. Once the dog is done, the important business can't be delayed.

On his way back, Yue Feng ran into Xiao Tao, Xiao Wen, and Xiao Wu, the three brothers.

The three brothers, each pulling a sled loaded with two or three wild boars of varying sizes, were heading back. "How many boars are left over at the boar's den?" Yue Feng asked.

“There are eight more, five of them are bigger, and three weigh about a hundred pounds!” Xiao Tao replied.

"Then I'll load the sled with more meat, and you can make another trip to bring it all back!"

"Okay! The last sled is a bit narrow, so let's put the smaller pigs in it first! We'll divide the rest up and haul them back in one trip!"

"it is good!"

……

After a brief conversation, Yue Feng slung his gun over his shoulder and headed straight for the wild boar's den.

Less than half an hour later, Yue Feng returned to the scene of the wild boar's den.

Just as Xiao Tao said, there were five large pigs and three piglets, lined up neatly in a row.

Because of the bloodletting nearby, you could smell the strong stench of blood from a great distance.

Yue Feng glanced at the remaining slightly smaller sled, lifted the three half-grown yellow-haired beasts onto the sled, and then tied them horizontally with rope.

I tried dragging it, and it was a little heavy, but because the terrain was relatively flat, the resistance was a little less when I dragged it, and I could still move it.

And so, with the rope on his back, Yue Feng dragged the sled back towards the camp.

Before he had walked a hundred meters, Yue Feng suddenly heard a large black eagle overhead cawing loudly.

Having spent a long time with eagles, Yue Feng can roughly distinguish the emotions conveyed by their calls.

The black hawk's urgent cries were clearly a warning!
Upon hearing the shout, Yue Feng put down the sled and immediately took the gun that was slung over his shoulder and held it in his hand.

A large black eagle hovered above the treetops of the pine trees, cawing incessantly.

Yue Feng carefully observed the flight path of the black eagle for a few moments but did not see any suspicious targets.

Just as he was wondering what was going on, the little white spear in the sky folded its wings and swooped down towards the forest.

Hachi!!
A hoarse, threatening hiss came from the distant woods, startling Yue Feng, who was caught off guard.

Yue Feng looked in the direction of the sound and saw Little White Spear using its slightly narrower wingspan to weave through the pine forest before diving low to attack a grayish-white prey.

Seeing the appearance of the prey confirmed Yue Feng's guess.

A lynx, and a light-colored adult male lynx at that.

This creature scratched the black tiger, but instead of running away, it was drawn by the smell of blood to the scene of the wild boar's hunt. It was then spotted by an eagle in the sky.

Yue Feng was at least 300 meters away from the tiger cub, separated by pine tree trunks, and could only vaguely see its general outline.

Under these shooting conditions, Yue Feng wasn't confident he could hit the target.

However, the little white spear had already begun to fight the lynx, while the big black eagle landed on the treetop and screeched desperately. The two eagles had now engaged the lynx in battle.

In an instant, Yue Feng decisively positioned himself against a pine tree trunk and set up his gun.

Now that the eagle is attracting its attention, Yue Feng still has a chance to fire one or two shots.

Going any closer is definitely not an option; the tiger cub is very clever, and once it realizes that people have locked onto it, it will surely run away.

Yue Feng set up his gun, took a deep breath, and aimed the muzzle at the general outline of the lynx in the distance.

shhhhh!

Yue Feng whistled, and the lynx turned its head sharply upon hearing the sound.

At that very moment, Yue Feng decisively pulled the trigger.

Boom!

Two shots were fired in quick succession. One shot hit the trunk of a pine tree next to the lynx, while the other shot, slightly raised, struck the snow-covered ground above, splashing up white snowflakes.

Upon hearing the gunshot, the lynx suddenly bent over with exaggerated speed and took off running into the distance.

Undeterred by missing his first two shots, Yue Feng fired several more in pursuit of the lynx's escape route.

Bang bang bang!
He fired three more shots in a row until the lynx was completely out of sight, at which point Yue Feng finally put down his gun.

huh~~~
Fearing that the falcon would continue to harass the lynx, Yue Feng let out another long whistle.

Upon hearing the whistle, Big Black Hawk and Little White Spear quickly turned back.

Yue Feng reached out, and two eagles landed on his arm.

Thankfully, the little white spear was flying very fast, and the lynx didn't get grazed.

Dogs can heal and recover from injuries, but if a lynx were to injure an eagle, it would be a huge loss.

If he missed, he missed. Under these shooting conditions, Yue Feng wasn't one of those soldiers who had undergone professional training, so it's normal that he couldn't hit the target.

The lynx didn't stay, but Yue Feng still wanted to go and take a look. In case the bullet grazed the lynx and left a minor injury, there would still be a chance to pursue it later.

With this in mind, Yue Feng patted the heads of the two falcons and then released them back into the air.

Holding the gun, he walked forward and soon arrived at the spot where the lynx had been standing.

The lynx left huge claw marks on the ground. Yue Feng took a few steps forward and found the location where the bullet had landed.

The first two bullets missed the lynx. After chasing it a little further, just when Yue Feng thought it was all hopeless, he found a small pool of blood on the ground, along with half of a lynx's hind paw.

Holy crap! I hit it!

Upon seeing the half-eaten lynx hind paw, Yue Feng immediately became excited.

Two years ago, Yue Feng shot a large male lynx. He shot it in the leg with a bullet, then chased it with a dog and an eagle, and finally captured the lynx.

I was lucky today; the bullets were chasing a moving target, and I managed to damage one of its hind paws by sheer luck.

An injured hind paw is a significant weakness for a lynx, a predator known for its agility.

More importantly, the bloodstains provide a stronger scent source for tracking with a dog, allowing you to follow the trail with the dog.

"Let you run around on the mountain for now! Once I've finished my business and brought the dog on a leash, I'll definitely kill you to avenge Black Tiger!"

Yue Feng looked in the direction the lynx had fled, muttered a few words, then turned around and continued dragging the sled back to the camp.

This time, as he dragged the sled back, Yue Feng's mindset clearly changed.

A fully grown lynx pelt is worth a lot of money. With the experience of hunting lynx two years ago, Yue Feng felt that he still had a good chance of continuing to hunt down and kill the wounded lynx this time.

First, drag all of today's wild boar prey back. At the latest, tomorrow, we'll definitely lead our men and dogs to chase after them.

If the wounded lynx had fled far away after being shot, that would have been one thing.

If it dares to linger in the surrounding mountains, then I'm sorry.

With the help of his alpha dog, Canglong, and the two falcons, Big Black Eagle and Little White Spear, Yue Feng definitely had a chance of threatening the tiger cub's life! (End of Chapter)
