Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

The scene shifts back to Lu Weiguo's side.

Although Lu Weiguo has already laid down his gun!

But a hint of wariness remained.

The purpose of venturing into the deep mountains and forests was to search for people.

He didn't think much of it at the time, but asked another question out of curiosity.

"Village Chief Huang, what's going on? How did you end up here?"

Just then, a gust of wind came from the hillside, blowing away the fog in front of them.

Lu Weiguo's eyesight was already good, so he rubbed his eyes, which were still fogged up by the sand.

The moment Lu Weiguo looked in that direction, his scalp tingled and his eyes began to twitch.

His right hand, which had been lowered, instantly rose again, while his left hand instinctively reached into his pocket and pulled out a bullet!

The "Village Chief Huang," who had half his body hidden by trees and weeds, was waiting with his dark eyes looking in their direction.

It looked like a white-faced, black-bodied creature with messy hair all over its body, its limbs crawling on the ground.

Isn't that an old black bear?!

There's a saying in Northeast China: "If a wolf puts its arm around your shoulder, don't turn around; if a bear beckons, run away quickly."

That's exactly the situation I'm referring to.

When a lone wolf encounters a pedestrian, it will sneak up behind the person, stand up, and place its paws on the person's shoulders.

If that person turns around, they'll bite through the person's neck immediately.

The bear waving its hand is even more eerie, with legends of a human-faced bear in Northeast China, or an elderly black bear.

They would pretend to be human in the deep mountains.

Hiding behind a tree, it waved like a human to attract passing villagers.

If the distance is sufficient, they will tackle the person to the ground immediately and drag them into the depths of the forest.

In general, there are only two types of bears in this situation.

One type is a small, thin bear cub that has been isolated by its mother.

Another type is the elderly black bear.

After all, they no longer have the ability to hunt.

Survival of the fittest means that one must always choose a way to survive.

Seeing that Lu Weiguo had spotted him, the old black bear crouched down and charged at him.

Lu Weiguo reacted very quickly.

He instinctively raised the gun and fired a shot at the bear's head!

Lu Weiguo's marksmanship was mediocre, but the man and the bear were simply too close!

With just one shot, the bullet pierced through the bear's eye!

The black box creature let out two mournful howls after being hit, rolled around on the ground, and tried to escape!

Black Bear, old and frail, was still awakened from hibernation by firecrackers.

It was already exhausted at that moment.

To ensure the bear skin remained intact, Lu Weiguo drew his pistol with his left hand as a precaution.

He slung the shotgun over his shoulder, drew his machete, and charged forward!

Lu Weiguo was physically very strong; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to stand up the next day even after being exhausted by Li Xiulian for more than ten times in one night.

He stomped his legs on the ground several times in succession.

Then he jumped onto the tumbling bear and desperately swung his machete at its injured eye.

Even after stabbing him five or six times, Lu Weiguo was still not satisfied.

The bear, in its final moments of lucidity, tried desperately to throw Lu Weiguo off its back.

As a result, the machete was left in his eye.

The swift blade was drawn in an instant and plunged directly into the gaping maw of the Black Bear!

Before the bear even closed its mouth, it suddenly kicked up a cloud of snowflakes!

"Damn! There really were some who escaped. Those mountain dogs weren't any good either; they didn't even clean out the bear den!"

For Shan Gouzi, it meant both hunting dogs and hunting rifles.

They were ruthless.

The hibernating bear's den should be the easiest to raid.

It's probably because the bear enclosure is so close to the village that no one would think there could be bears around here.

So I didn't search here.

"Damn, the fur is so old that it falls out as soon as you pull it. Let's see if we can get it treated."

Lu Weiguo lay on the bear's back, his body covered in fur.

His white hunting clothes were now filthy, and he reeked of a foul stench.

Especially the right hand, which was pulled out of the bear's mouth.

Lu Weiguo doesn't want it anymore!

But before he could even wash his hands with snow...

A faint sound of footprints drifted on the wind.

Then, with a click.

Lie on the gun barrel!

Lu Weiguo frowned and immediately hid behind Hei Xiazi!

"Who's there! Who's over there!"

The same cries, the same deception.

That person didn't have Lu Weiguo's good eyesight; he could only see a hazy gray area.

They rushed over after hearing gunshots in the dim moonlight.

Upon hearing the voice, Lu Weiguo quickly realized it was completely unfamiliar.

The voice was very young, suggesting the person was only eighteen or nineteen years old.

They were probably kids from the neighborhood who went hunting in the mountains after the Lunar New Year.

That's how it is at times: the bold get rich, and the timid starve.

After hunting, many young people follow the adults' example and go into the mountains.

For these young people, hunting rifles were even simpler.

Young people are bold and unafraid of exploding barrels; all they need is an iron pipe to make a single-shot shotgun by hand.

Bullets are also made using the gunpowder from firecrackers.

Almost every kid in Northeast China has done this; the principle is very simple.

"Hoo hoo~~"

But it's still deep in the mountains.

Lu Weiguo exhaled two breaths of stale air, said nothing, and raised Hei Xiazi's hand in greeting.

"Speak up! Who is it?! Damn it!! I'll shoot if you don't speak up!!"

The boy was bold and unsuspecting, so he walked towards the bear.

It can wave, is not aggressive, and can even make human sounds.

Someone without experience would never guess what it is.

until!

About two meters away from the black bear.

The little brat finally saw what was lying on the ground!

Then a gunshot rang out!

But that gun was completely a sham.

As soon as the sound rang out, the young man's wail instantly followed.

Lu Weiguo was startled by the sound and looked up.

The young man didn't have a hunting rifle in his hand at that moment!

His right hand, which was holding the gun, was covered in blood from the explosion.

He rolled on the ground, clutching his chest, howling in pain.

Clearly, the gun exploded!

"Damn, where did this hothead come from?!"

Lu Weiguo stopped pretending at this point. Since there was no threat, he rushed over in one stride!

But when the young man looked up, he saw Lu Weiguo.

"Ah!! Damn it! It's all your fault! I'm going to kill you!!"

He knelt on the ground and kicked his legs out!

His veins were bulging and his eyes were bloodshot.

Even his right hand, which had lost two fingers in the explosion, started waving.

Like a demon, it rammed into Lu Weiguo!

You know what?

Lu Weiguo wasn't scared by the black bear just now.

Instead, they were tricked by the young man's appearance!

He was still in a daze.

The rule in the mountains, especially at night, is not to answer any sounds you hear.

There have always been legends in the mountains about alluring voices and ghosts.

As soon as you hear a voice and answer, they'll take you away immediately.

This is also why Lu Weiguo was willing to go over even though he didn't hear a reply from Village Chief Huang.

But this young man clearly caused the explosion himself.

Why blame him?

Besides, even if it's his fault, shouldn't he have asked for help first?

unless....

Lu Weiguo dodged and glanced at the gun fragments on the ground.

Upon seeing that familiar face, I instantly recognized him!
