One hundred and sixty-two chapters of the hound's knowledge
"Don't even think about it. If summer vacation doesn't come, I will show our photos to Sam. But when we get to Beijing, I can also take you to other cities to play. We will go to Europe later. Your passport is fine, and my passport is
We still need a visa, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to sign it." Hong Tao has now seen through that this Irene is not a fuel-efficient person, she is full of bad intentions, so what she says cannot be taken lightly.
"That's fine, but you have to tell Katie and Jim yourself, I don't care." Erin didn't seem to care where she went during the summer vacation.
After finishing the behind-the-scenes deal, Hong Tao rubbed his face and returned to the cabin with Irene. At this time, a fire had been lit in the fireplace of the house, and everyone was busy making breakfast, setting off from the Big Bear Territory to this cabin.
, I drove for almost 2 hours, and now it’s exactly 7 o’clock, so it’s time to have something to eat.
Although it is said to be a small wooden house, the interior space is actually quite large. The whole house is divided into three rooms, which is a bit like the layout of the northern countryside. As soon as you enter the door, there is a room, which can be regarded as a living room, kitchen and dining room. There is also a room on the left and right, and there are several rooms in it.
The bunk beds were probably used as a temporary resting place for lumberjacks in the past.
Miss Liu, who gave Hong Tao a big mouth, was sitting next to the fireplace and warming her mouth. When she saw Hong Tao come in, her big eyes swiped at him like lasers. It seemed that the matter was not over yet. She just slapped her mouth.
It still couldn't relieve the hatred in her heart.
The others didn't seem to know what had just happened. Boss Liu was playing with a long gun with Austin's help. Katie and the black guy Jim didn't even enter the house, and stood far away in the car.
Next to me, those who are standing in the storm don’t know what they are talking about. People in love are like supermen, they are not afraid of cold or heat, they are not afraid of hunger or thirst, they are not afraid of hardship and they are not afraid of tiredness. It is the same all over the world.
When he went to explain the misunderstanding to Miss Liu, Irene would naturally find an opportunity to do it. Hong Tao did not expect at all that she would apologize to him after knowing the misunderstanding. This big talker was sure to be in vain.
"Fortunately, it doesn't hurt too much. Fortunately, she hasn't practiced martial arts or karate." Hong Tao could only comfort himself with this reason, and he could resist the urge to kick her.
After a simple breakfast, Austin began to briefly explain the principles of using guns when hunting to a few people who did not have hunting licenses. It is nothing more than that the gun cannot be loaded when there is no prey, let alone pointing the gun at others. Generally, the
Carrying a long gun in the arms or on the shoulders, etc. After about half an hour of lectures, I started to conduct practical tests with Ignatius, Harrison and others who had hunting teacher qualification certificates, and Hong Tao and other rookies.
Hong Tao was the first to complete the practical exam because his examiner was Harrison. This old cowboy had no respect for the law at all. He only asked Hong Tao to load the bullets of the double-barreled shotgun and then demonstrated the action of carrying the gun. Even if
Passed the exam.
The most serious examiner is Austin. Due to his work, he is the one who has the most contact with tourists and foreigners. He also has the most experience with this exam, so he tries his best to require students to understand his explanations and master basic firearms.
Knowledge. Fortunately, everyone here is no stranger to guns. Even Boss Liu is an old hand at playing with guns. While operating the shotgun in his hand, he also talked about his experience of shooting birds with a shotgun when he was young.
Hong Tao suddenly discovered that among these people, he was the least familiar with guns. Although Boss Liu and his daughter were also Chinese, their levels were really different. Target shooting was really not a problem for them, and guns were not a big deal.
This thing is considered a new thing in big cities. In the mines over there, let alone guns, it is not difficult to get you hundreds of kilograms of explosives.
As for sisters Eileen and Jim, Americans are just as enthusiastic about guns as Canadians. Although they don’t have their own guns yet, they have access to all kinds of long and short guns if they want to.
Pao, not only Hong Tao can't compare with this advantage, but even a wealthy man like Boss Liu doesn't dare to compare with him. It's really hopeless.
The hunting licenses of Hong Tao and others have actually been made and placed in the Big Bear Hotel, but there is still one step left, which is to register online. Without this procedure, the certificate is just a piece of waste paper, but when everyone passes it
After the practical exam, Austin used the radio to notify his wife to register these documents online so that Hong Tao and the others could participate in hunting activities and legally hunt prey in accordance with Ontario regulations.
I arrived at the lumber camp hut at 7 o'clock in the morning, cooking, eating, and giving explanations and operating tests. It took more than an hour. By the time everyone extinguished the fire in the fireplace, packed up the house, closed the door, and prepared to leave, the time had already passed.
It's almost 9 a.m.
Starting from the logging camp, there are no roads of any kind. Since the heavy snow has not stopped, most of the prey are hiding in the woods. As a result, snowmobiles cannot be used to drive prey in the open areas at the edge of the woods.
, so except that one can be used to pull some heavier equipment, the other two motorcycles are useless.
The best helper for hunting in the woods is not a snowmobile, but a hunting dog. In this season, animals are affected by heavy snow and have neither sight nor speed, so they will find a place they think is safe to hide and wait for the snow to stop.
, the sky clears, and then go out to look for food.
Animals living in the wild generally have their own unique hiding skills. It is difficult to detect them with the human eye alone, so Harrison's four hunting dogs became important weapons for this hunt.
If Harrison hadn't mentioned the dogs, Hong Tao would have forgotten about them. When loading the car at Pawei's house, Hong Tao saw a large iron cage on Harrison's car, which was also covered with a thick tarpaulin.
But I didn't see what was inside at that time, I only heard that it was a hunting dog.
Now we can finally see these legendary human friends, but as soon as they appeared, Hong Tao almost stopped crying. Originally, he thought that hunting dogs should be big guys with ferocious faces and the size of racehorses, but when Harrison flirted with
After opening the tarpaulin and opening the iron cage, what jumped out were four medium-sized dogs that were about half a meter tall and weighed about 50 kilograms.
"Do you know this dog?" Hong Tao did not dare to express his opinion rashly, because he had never raised a dog in his previous life and knew very little about dogs. Although these four dogs did not look very eye-catching, in case of any nb
Bloodline, I don't want to show my timidity again, so it would be better to ask Sister Irene first, at least it can be used as a back-up when someone makes fun of me.
"I don't know..." Erin and Katie shook their heads together.
"This is the Plott Bearhound. It is a pure breed and a good dog. I never expected to see it here." The black guy Jim suddenly spoke. It seemed that he was very knowledgeable about dogs. He called out the dog's name right away and said
You can tell if it is a purebred.
"Are you sure? Do you have a dog at home?" Hong Tao didn't believe him.
"My grandpa likes to raise dogs. Don't you know? This kind of dog is an American dog and is only found in the mountains of North Carolina, where my grandpa happens to live. In my grandpa's house, this kind of dog is used for hunting.
Wild boars, they are very good hunters." Jim gave a definite answer again.
Okay, now you have to believe it if you don’t believe it. I just happened to meet someone’s family. They even explained their place of origin and use. It’s probably correct. But Hong Tao doesn’t think these dogs are awkward. They are really
They are neither beautiful nor brave. According to Hong Tao's understanding, they are not without their advantages, and there should be two of them.
The first advantage is that they are quiet. They can stay in an iron cage for a day and a night without making a sound, which is very rare. The second advantage is that their camouflage color is better. Look at their messy short hair, earthy gray color, and there are
There are stripes of color one after another. If you lay down among the piles of rocks, you would hardly be able to find them unless you step on them.
"Don't be afraid. We need to let them get familiar with your scent first, so that there will be no misunderstandings in the woods. Come on, reach out your hand and let them lick it..." Harrison led the four native dogs.
(This is the name given by Hong Tao, which mainly captures the key points of their colors), and make contact with everyone. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
