626. Chase up the mountain
Xishan is indeed a bit desolate. Except for some small animals, beasts of prey are almost invisible.
However, in the past two years since Gulan took over, these mountains have not been left idle. He has hired some people to plant a lot of fruit trees from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain, which can be regarded as an income to some extent.
Then every other month someone would be asked to take care of it, do pruning, fertilizing, etc. Gulan didn’t have much experience in planting trees, but she couldn’t bear it. She had a book, so she just read it if she didn’t understand.
After more than a year of hard work, the fruit tree looks pretty good, but it will probably take another year or two before the fruit comes out. It's not in a hurry for her, after all, she doesn't rely on this aspect.
Have a meal.
When she reached the foot of the mountain, she looked at the fruit trees she had planted, a trace of satisfaction overflowed from the corner of her mouth, then she put away her skis and transformed into a gust of wind and disappeared on the snow-capped mountains.
There is no good prey on the edge of the west mountain. If you want to hunt good things, you need to go deeper. Once you reach the deep mountains, there are even black bears and tigers.
It's just that Gu Lan is not interested in them most of the time. As long as he doesn't run into them head-on, he won't deliberately look for them.
After all, it is not easy for each of these big guys to grow up, and as a modern person, she is very aware of the importance of ecological balance. It is precisely because of the intimidation of these big guys that some beasts will not cross the line.
After so many days of snow, Xue Xiao has a tendency to want to stop. After enduring so many days of hunger, some animals must be able to bear it no longer.
This is also the main reason why the Quran came out.
Of course it has something to do with being bored at home for so many days.
What Gu Lan didn't know was that Xiang Yunjin had just left the village and led people to Lijia Village. After learning that she had gone hunting in the back mountains, he was happy without any hesitation and took Wang Yun and other guards with him.
He chased after me on his skateboard.
Gao Xing was left behind and stayed in the old house depressed. Who told him that he could not learn to ski and was born with poor balance. He could only watch his master and others leave.
Xiang Yunjin was very fast, and Wang Yun and others had a hard time chasing him.
The drifting snow was very small, but the traces left by Gulan were still very clear. There was no need to work hard or identify the direction. All you had to do was follow the traces left by Gulan and slide towards the back mountain.
I thought they were going very fast, but they tried their best to follow the traces to the foot of the Western Mountain. Not to mention Gu Ye's shadow, he didn't even see the shadow of an animal.
Fortunately, the traces of climbing up the mountain are still there, but they are very light. No one thinks it is strange when they think of Gu Lan's movement skills.
When the speed is extremely fast, it is really not easy to leave traces, even on the snow.
But I'm a little worried, because Gu Ye's movement is so fast, the possibility of them finding him even if they go up the mountain is slim, and not only that, they might miss him.
Thinking of this, Wang Yun spoke: "Your Majesty, how about we wait at the foot of the mountain? According to Master Gu's speed, we are probably already deep in the mountain, and we won't be able to catch up even if we hurry up."
"You stay, I'll go up the mountain."
It was impossible to stay at the foot of the mountain. Although he might not be able to keep up for a while, Xiang Yunjin was still confident in his Qinggong. Gulan came to the mountain for prey. Since he was hunting, he couldn't be on the road all the time.
So as long as you are careful enough, it is still possible to find it. Xiang Yunjin is very confident about this.
However, Wang Yun's considerations are reasonable. Yamashita really needs to retain people to avoid missing out.
"My subordinates will accompany the Crown Prince." Wang Yun immediately expressed his unwillingness. His duty was to protect the Crown Prince's safety and it was impossible for the Crown Prince to go up the mountain alone.
Xiang Yunjin had no objections and could follow him as long as his speed was not affected. Then Xiang Yunjin took Wang Yun and another good guard from the sky and disappeared into the snow-capped mountains along the traces left by Gulan.
And Gulan in the mountains has climbed over five high mountains in a row and completely entered the deep mountains.
Although it is already late winter, the situation in the mountains is still obviously more fertile and richer in vegetation than the mountains under her name. There are still many cold-resistant plants standing proudly in the cold wind.
There are obviously many more traces of activity left by animals on the snow. Every time he sees a trace, Gulan will carefully identify it, and he will basically ignore the prey that he does not want.
Although I didn't find the prey I wanted during this period, I hunted a few that I bumped into.
For example, the stupid roe deer was taken into the space by Gulan. There were also some hares, and then he met a snow-white fox. The little guy was very cunning and felt numb the first moment he saw her.
Slip away.
Appearance is justice. Who made the little fox look cute? Gu Lan decisively let it go.
Then focus on looking for the desired prey in the animal's footprints.
Fat and strong wild boars were Gu Lan's main target when he went up the mountain this time. Hunting a few of them would be enough to provide extra meals for everyone in the workshop and manor.
At the same time, Xiang Yunjin and Wang Yun worked hard to find her traces along the traces left by Gulan.
After climbing several mountains, Wang Yun could only grit his teeth and follow closely as he watched his master disappear quickly without stopping.
It seems that the master's skill has improved again. He who used to be able to keep pace with his master now can only follow behind him.
Speaking of which, Mr. Gu’s speed was too fast, and they didn’t slow down much! After going up the mountain, they hurried on with all their strength, but they still didn’t see even a shadow.
Watching his master disappear on the top of the mountain, Wang Yun only had time to wave and greet his more miserable brother who followed him, and then he also disappeared on the top of the mountain.
After a careful search here, Gulan finally discovered the traces of the target wild boar. The wild boar footprints were all over the ground, covering a wide area. Gulan's eyes lit up when he saw them.
Look...the tribe is not small!
But the tribe is great! The bigger it is, the more peaceful it will be for her.
There is no need to worry that over-harvesting will wipe out the wild boar herd. She can eat meat with confidence as long as she lives.
Once you find these, you don't have to worry anymore. It didn't take much effort to follow the tracks and find a group of big guys on a steep slope looking for food in the snow.
The large and small black boar skins are particularly conspicuous on the snowy ground. They are really a big family.
...Then there is no need to be soft-hearted.
Creatures like wild boars reproduce very quickly.
Then a burst of afterimages drifted past, and before the wild boar gate could react, there were already seven or eight half-sized wild boars missing from the wild boar herd.
As for the leader and the strongest ones, unless they are actively attacking, Gulan will not move under normal circumstances. After all, they are responsible for protecting the entire group.
It took a while before the wild boar leader seemed to realize that something was wrong in the group, but he couldn't explain what was wrong. He could only angrily push his head harder and make a humming alarm sound, asking the boars to move the sows and young wild boars.
The surroundings became denser.
At this moment, Gulan has disappeared on this steep slope and appeared in another direction.
