Chapter 656: One shot, two shots
Although Ling Weasel cannot be raised, Xu Damao cannot watch it die under a bear trap.
"You three just scream a few times to scare that little guy outside."
After Xu Damao finished his instructions, he lay down and went to sleep, mainly because he was drunk.
With his physical condition, he can even faint from drinking, which shows how much alcohol he drank.
.
Xu Damao woke up in the early morning of the next day and cleaned up his personal hygiene.
He became a good man again. It was still snowing outside, but it was much lighter.
Xu Damao planned to go outside and take back all the animal traps. Even if it snowed today, he couldn't stay here.
He had already experienced hunting in the forest, sea, and snowfields, and he planned to go home once his trophies were richer.
After all, humans are social animals, and it is always a bit uncomfortable for a person to wander outside and inside for a long time.
Unfortunately, there was not much harvest under these bear traps, because it had snowed for a long time and was very heavy.
Before daybreak, Xu Damao had already fed himself and the dogs, and put the three of them on the sled.
Xu Damao put away the wooden house, shouted loudly, and the sled began to sprint deep into the mountain.
At this time, there were still millet grains floating in the sky, which made a snapping sound on my sunglasses.
Xu Damao was also sitting here a little distracted, completely lacking the passion he had when he first entered the mountain.
The route I ran today was not close, but I didn’t gain anything along the way.
Xu Damao really couldn't do this kind of luck-based hunting, but he wouldn't be happy if he was just looking for animal trails.
It was not until three o'clock in the afternoon that Xu Damao stopped the sled and let the dogs go to roam freely.
He also moved his somewhat numb body and looked at his surroundings.
There were not many flat areas on the mountainside at this location, so Xu Damao was looking for a place to put down his wooden house.
Three dogs roared loudly above, and Xu Damao immediately took out his rifle and ran towards the place where the dogs were barking.
When he arrived, he found a big dark hole behind a huge rock, which looked very deep.
Xu Damao quickly told the dogs to shut up, then drove them back, and then looked at the cave carefully.
Wild boars and tigers generally don't go into caves, according to Zhao Si's own experience.
There may be bears "crouching" here. The so-called "crouching" is a local term, which is actually the hibernation of animals.
This is also the main reason why local lone hunters enter the mountains only after a few snowfalls. At this time, not only are the bears hibernating.
Even tigers, wild boars, lynxes, and leopards are facing a problem, which is a decrease in physical strength caused by scarcity of food.
Bears entering hibernation are not a big threat to those who are prepared. The main reason is lack of physical strength. After all, they have not eaten or drank for a long time.
There is also the fact that bears are relatively stupid at this time, because they are so sleepy that they are less responsive to the outside world.
Dogs only bark when they smell something, and bears will definitely be enraged when they hear a dog barking.
Whether it is a person or an animal, they will lose their temper after being woken up for no reason, and then attack the person who disturbed the person's sleep.
According to what Zhao Si said, Xu Damao only needed to find a safe opponent to set up his gun and wait for work.
Of course, if you are impatient, you can also use smoke to drive the bear out quickly.
If you are rough, you can throw explosives directly into it to kill the hibernating bear.
Xu Damao chose the first method mentioned by Zhao Si, but he first used a fence to form a simple defense line not far from the entrance of the cave.
Because he didn't want the bear to get close to him, because an angry bear could smash a human head like a watermelon with one slap.
A piece of flesh can be removed from a person's body with just a flick of the tongue. Letting this thing close to you will make you uncomfortable.
After Xu Damao finished all this, he retreated to a safe place and waited for the bear to come out. The situation was similar to what Zhao Si said.
Not long after a furious bear roar, heavy footsteps came from inside the cave.
A half-sized black bear came out of the hole, and Xu Damao immediately pulled the trigger.
"Bang, bang."
The bear, who had been shot twice, still rushed towards Xu Damao for a short distance, and fell to the ground after being hit by a third shot in front of the fence.
Xu Damao didn't dare to let down his guard at this time. Who knows if there is a second bear in such a deep cave.
He was squatting on the spot with the gun in hand, still staring at the hole.
At this time, a loud roar came from the cave, and an even bigger bear rushed out of the cave.
As he ran, there was a sound of dongdong on the ground, and it was like a mountain of meat coming towards Xu Damao.
With the previous bear's foreshadowing, Xu Damao didn't feel panic even if this bear was much bigger.
The rifle in his hand was steady, and five consecutive shots hit its vitals.
"Aw..., winter..."
The bear screamed before it died, and the sound of the mountain of meat hitting the ground was heard, and the second bear was scrapped.
Although there were still several bullets in the magazine, Xu Damao quickly replaced the magazine with a new one.
Then continue to stare at the dark hole to prevent a bear from running out of it.
Xu Damao waited for more than ten minutes. It is estimated that this time there is really no more.
"You three go in and take a look. If there are still bears, come out quickly."
Xu Damao let the three dogs enter the cave, and after a while they ran out wagging their tails.
At this time, Xu Damao breathed a sigh of relief. He did not choose any good viewing position at this time.
The wooden house was placed directly on the open space beside it, but there was no room for the fence this time.
Xu Damao then began to examine the two dead bears. The first one came out weighed more than 200 kilograms, and the last one weighed more than 500 kilograms.
If I guess correctly, this should be a mother bear and her cub.
No matter what they are, the first priority now is to deal with them, otherwise it will become more and more difficult to deal with.
The large size of the bear was too troublesome to handle, so Xu Damao bought a tripod with pulleys from a system store.
After tying the bears, they were hung up, and then they began to skin them slowly with a knife. This stuff was not something to be wasted.
Because the whole body of a bear has medicinal value, whether it is bones, meat, palms, fat, blood, or brain marrow, all of them can be used as medicine.
The most valuable one is bear bile. Bear bile has a bitter and cold smell, is non-toxic and enters the liver, gallbladder and heart meridians.
Both the "Tang Materia Medica" written thousands of years ago and the famous "Compendium of Materia Medica" clearly indicate its preciousness.
The two bears took a long time to deal with, and they were even more tiring than the wolves the day before yesterday.
