After Xing Zhiyong and Li Hu heard the dog barking, they ran to the post looking for the sound, but they couldn't find the prey. The problem was that they heard the dog barking getting farther and farther away from them.
This means that the higher they run, the farther away they are from their prey.
If this happens, it means that the dog failed to catch up with the prey and ran away with the prey.
It stands to reason that black bears cannot run so fast, let alone two bears, one big and one small.
Xing Zhiyong suddenly stopped while running. He wanted to open his mouth to call Li Hu, but he couldn't catch his breath. He took two big breaths before raising his head and shouting: "Lao San, don't run!"
”
When Li Hu heard this, he stopped and almost fell to the snow. He took a few breaths before he came to Xing Zhiyong and asked: "What's wrong, brother? Why don't you chase me?" p>
"Why? Look!" Xing Zhiyong bent over, holding his knees with one hand and pointing to the footprints on the ground with the other, letting Li Hu take a look.
Li Hu followed what Xing Zhiyong pointed at, and his nose almost became crooked with anger. He said angrily: "I've been chasing the roe deer for a long time!"
"It's not good." Xing Zhiyong said: "Hurry up and whistle and call the dog back."
"I can't blow anymore. Brother, please blow."
Xing Zhiyong had no choice but to stand up straight and whistle to call the dog.
It turned out that his two dogs did not hook up with Heixiazi at all, but discovered a litter of roe deer, and then ran away with the roe deer.
The roe deer is not only nicknamed Silly Roe Deer, but is also called Flying on the Snow. Even dogs can't catch up when they run around on the snowy ground. No wonder they chase farther and farther away.
"Brother, what kind of dog is this in your family?" Li Hu complained angrily to Xing Zhiyong.
"What happened to my dog?"
Li Hu curled his lips and said nothing more.
Not long after, Xing Zhiyong's two dogs ran back one after the other, one sitting down and the other lying down next to Xing Zhiyong. Their bodies were steaming, their mouths were open and their tongues were hanging out, and they were panting.<
/p>
Waiting for the people, the dog was almost rested, and the two continued to take the dog to look for the big and small black blind man's footprints, and continued to follow them after they found them.
But these two dogs don't understand their owner's intentions. The key is that the incense head is not good and they can't distinguish the smell of black bears in the air by following the footprints.
Therefore, the two dogs spent the whole day chasing roe deer or chasing rabbits. When it was almost dark, they caught nothing. Only then did Xing Zhiyong and Li Hu realize that this day was simply a waste of time.<
/p>
"Brother, don't be disinclined to listen to what I say. What kind of bad dog are you? You can strangle yourself to death and eat meat!" On the way home, Li Hu kept complaining to Xing Zhiyong, "You have been running for nothing this day, how much work have you wasted?" At this time, Xing Zhiyong also felt that he was wrong. It was indeed his dog that was not easy to handle and failed to keep up with the blind man. It was normal for Li Hu to complain.
When he was approaching the door of his house, Xing Zhiyong asked Li Hu: "Brother, are you still waiting for me tomorrow?"
"Pull out!" Li Hu said decisively: "Today we chased the queen mother under the roof, and we will get up early and leave early tomorrow. This time we won't bring the dog with us, so we will follow with guns. If we grab the guns and fight, we will collapse.
Kill it!"
"Okay!"
After discussing it, the two of them went back to their respective homes to rest. Early the next morning, they got up at around six o'clock, took a bite of yesterday's leftovers, and walked out with some dry food in their pockets.
They went into the mountains together and continued to follow the footprints where they finally found the two black bear footprints yesterday.
When the chase reached about ten o'clock, Li Hu suddenly saw something dark moving in the woods ahead.
"Brother, do you think that's true?"
"Yeah..." Xing Zhiyong couldn't see clearly either, and saw a dark thing shuttling in the forest.
What to do?
It's definitely not possible to shoot. I didn't even see it clearly. What if it was a person?
The two of them walked forward quickly. Strangely enough, if they were fast, the guy in front of them would be faster; if they were slow, the guy in front of them would be slower.
"Is there someone in front of you?" Li Hu couldn't bear it anymore and asked loudly.
As soon as he shouted, the guy in front moved faster.
Suddenly, a dark shadow next to them caught the eyes of Xing Zhiyong and Li Hu.
One big and one small. Although you can't see clearly, there is no doubt that they are the two black bears.
"Hug it!"
Li Hu raised his gun and fired, and Xing Zhiyong followed up with a shot.
After two gunshots, the two reluctantly put down their guns. They were too far away to shoot accurately.
"Chase!"
The two began to chase each other again, but they could not outrun the black bears. Moreover, these two black bears did not step on the beams, but walked on the slopes.
This makes Xing Zhiyong and Li Hu uncomfortable.
It's easy to go downhill, but it's over if you slide down. But it's difficult to go uphill, but if you take a detour, you'll have to go all your life to catch the black bear.
They followed like this until about three o'clock in the afternoon. The two of them were tired and hungry, and they couldn't hold on any longer before going down the mountain and going home.
This time Li Hu didn't complain about Xing Zhiyong, and remained silent along the way. When he was approaching the entrance of the village, Xing Zhiyong asked Li Hu the same question as yesterday: "Brother, can we follow you tomorrow?"
"Follow!" Li Hu gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and squeezed out a word from between his teeth, and then said more like he was angry: "I don't believe I can't kill them both!"
Seeing this, Xing Zhiyong said: "Then let's leave home early tomorrow."
"It's still early?"
"Yes, earlier." Xing Zhiyong said: "We will leave home at five o'clock. We will be there before the black blind man gets up. Once there, shoot him twice and kill him."
Hearing this, Li Hu couldn't help but his eyes lit up, thinking that this was a good idea, why hadn't he thought of it earlier?
The two discussed it again and then went home.
When Xing Zhiyong came home, Hu Erya saw that he was still empty-handed and couldn't help but complain about him.
As for Xing Zhiyong, he suppressed the anger in his heart, finished his dinner under Hu Erya's verbal attack, and then lay down to sleep.
One night passed, and the next morning, before dawn, Xing Zhiyong came out of the house with a gun on his back.
When he approached the entrance of the village, he saw Li Hu already waiting for him in front. After the two said hello, they stopped talking and walked straight into the mountains.
After entering the mountain, the two of them came to the place where they returned yesterday and continued to follow the footprints.
They kept walking all the way, and when they reached about eight o'clock, Li Hu said: "Brother, let's take a closer look and kill the big mother and the black blind man, and keep the little one."
Having said this, Li Hu then emphasized: "Don't fight!"
"Ah?" Xing Zhiyong was startled and asked, "What is that for?"
"Hey, brother, you are stupid." Li Hu said: "How big can that little black blind boy be? His courage is not worth much?"
"Then let them go?"
It's better than nothing. Why not fight?
"Why let it go? We don't believe in Buddhism or religion." Li Hu replied angrily, and then patiently explained to Xing Zhiyong, "Let's grab it back, lock it with the iron chain, and put it away."
Give it a nest in your backyard so it can sleep over the winter.
Wait until next spring, get some broken melons and potato seeds for it, deal with it, raise it for two years, then kill it, and by then its guts will be worth money."
"Oh!" Xing Zhiyong couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard this. He pointed at Li Hu and said with a smile: "This is a good idea. It hibernates in winter. When summer comes, potatoes will come down that morning, as will cucumbers and persimmons.
Just feed it the broken cucumbers and rotten persimmons.
In autumn, let your wife and I go up the mountain to roll jujubes, pick up some walnuts, and feed it acorns, then let it sleep in winter. Two years will go by in a flash."
"It's not bad. Let me tell you, brother, how much can you eat if you feed it for two years? But if you have the guts to feed it for two years, it's worth your money."
As the two walked forward, they thought about the wonderful things of raising a small black bear to collect courage and make a fortune, but at this time, no one noticed that there were no more footprints of the black bear around them.
When they discovered it, the two of them were already in front of a fallen tree, which was a wind-blown birch tree. The tree was covered with snow, lying in front of them.
It was the obstruction of this fallen tree that brought the two of them back to their senses after being immersed in daydreaming.
"Brother, this is wrong!" Li Hu said: "Why did you lose me?"
Xing Zhiyong still looked back, but within ten meters behind him, there were only two footprints on the snow.
Where has this black blind man gone?
There is only one road in front of you when you go up and down the mountain. Where else can the black blind man go? Can he still grow wings and fly?
At this moment, I heard a "squeak" from the fallen tree.
Before the sound could be heard, a black bear had already jumped onto the fallen tree. It stood on the fallen tree without stopping, and then descended directly towards the two of them.
