Chapter 278: Beat the tiger in the head, kill the chicken and cut its throat
Perhaps it is because moss grows on that huge stone all year round. It grows in large numbers during the rainy season and dries up in the dry season. I don’t know how many years have passed. From a distance, it looks like splashing ink, leaving dark spots on the stone.
A trace is very conspicuous.
Zhao Yongke looked in the direction Lu Lu pointed and almost couldn't help shouting. He covered his mouth, turned back to look at Lu Lu, took a few deep breaths, and then whispered: "Big claws!
"
He seemed a little nervous.
In comparison, Lu Lu was much calmer.
Everyone knows that big claws are powerful, but even among mountain people, few have actually seen big claws.
Many people who have seen the big claws have either died or been scared out of their wits. As a hunter who has been active in the mountains all year round, Zhao Yongke has seen a lot of beasts, but when he sees this big claw, he cannot avoid it.
He was so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe out, which shows how deeply the terror of the big claws is deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Lu Lu was different. He had seen it many times in the zoo. He had also spent money to buy meat at the zoo and fed it to the big paw while hanging it on a boom. He had also seen the big paw swinging around several meters high.
The pieces of meat were torn off.
In his eyes, Big Claw is just an extremely rare large beast. As for how ferocious it is, what he hears about Big Claw, which is as obedient as a big cat in the zoo, are two completely different extremes.
Yesterday, when Lu Lu heard that something happened to Zhao Tuanqing's Wuli Leng, he ran back. He really didn't have much fear in his heart. The key was that he had a gun at hand to strengthen his courage.
It was only after witnessing the swiftness of the big paw that it fled away from the sound of gunfire that Lu Lu truly realized how powerful it was.
The wild nature displayed all over the big claws, and the power it unleashed surprised him even more, but it was not to the extent that he would be frightened and unable to control himself when he saw it.
This can also be regarded as the advantage of Lu Lu's calm mentality that he has gained from being well-informed.
The big paw was sleeping on its back in the shadow under the stone.
When people are looking at a still life, the slightest difference can easily attract attention. Although it is mostly blocked by a few smaller stones under the stone lid, they just move their legs and feet.
As soon as he lowered his tail, Lu Lu noticed him immediately.
Lu Lu gently pulled Zhao Yongke's clothes, pointed to the way he came, and then walked back quietly.
Zhao Yongke looked back at the position of the big paw, and then left.
The two didn't stop until they crossed the ridge.
"I'm watching here, you go back and call me Amma!"
Lu Lu breathed out quickly and looked at Zhao Yongke, whose chest was swelling at this moment: "It was not easy to find traces of it before, but now it is very difficult to directly encounter it resting. Such an opportunity is too difficult."
"You mean, we'll fight today?"
Zhao Yongke said with some worry: "There are just three of us."
"Three people, three 56-type semi-automatics, I think we have a good chance."
Lu Lu narrowed his eyes: "No matter what, tell Mr. Zhao that it's up to him to decide whether to fight or not... I don't want him to think about hitting Big Claw all day long. This tiger has injured so many people.
We can’t keep it, so we might as well get rid of it earlier to save more people from getting into trouble.”
"Okay!"
Zhao Yongke nodded, turned around and left.
"etc……"
Lu Lu hurriedly stopped him: "Tell Qingzi to tell him and let him guard there. The dogs are left there and the horses are tied up. Don't tell your sister-in-law, so as not to worry them, just ask dad to come over alone."
.”
"good!"
Zhao Yongke responded and ran down the hillside briskly.
Lu Luze returned to the grassy slope and squatted behind the bushes, looking at the hiding place of the big paw and the surrounding terrain.
After waiting for about twenty minutes, Zhao Yongke led Zhao Tuanqing over quietly.
Following Lu Lu's guidance, Zhao Tuanqing immediately saw the big paw that was already crawling on the ground, bending its head and licking the fur on its abdomen.
His expression suddenly became very complicated, but more importantly, he was excited. A touch of red appeared on his cheeks, which were full of vicissitudes of life, as if carved by a knife, and even the veins on his temples bulged.
Lu Lu could see that he was trying to restrain himself.
Zhao Tuanqing's slender eyes stared at the big paw closely for a while, and his eyes began to move around to observe.
Next, he closed his eyes and thought for a while, then reached out and gently banged Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke, and headed back towards the ridge along the way they came.
When they reached the ridge, the three of them squatted down.
"Dad Zhao, do you want to fight or not?" Lu Lu asked first.
"Fight!" Zhao Tuanqing said firmly.
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and the territory of Big Claw is very wide. You don't need to think about it to know that the Big Claw you see now is the one that kills people one after another.
It's summer now, when everything is prosperous, and it's also the time when there are the most animals in the mountains and the most activities.
It's hurtful to say that there is no shortage of prey in this season. If you go to the cave, everything is withered, the animals are hiding and leaving, and food is scarce, it is entirely possible to go out of the mountains and hunt livestock in the surrounding villages.
, hurting people's lives. At that time, it becomes even more threatening.
Neither Lu Lu nor Zhao Yongke said much, but looked at Zhao Tuanqing quietly, waiting for him to speak.
Zhao Tuanqing thought carefully for a while and said: "I have been walking around in the wilderness a lot over the years, and I know a lot of hunters. Among them are old hunters who have been in the Tiger Hunting Team. When chatting with them, I asked
How to kill the big claw.
Some used live animals as bait, some chased them with dogs, and some set up rope snares... Everyone had their own methods, and I also heard them talk about using guns to kill them."
In the early years, tiger hunting teams were established in various places due to the problem of big paws.
At that time, there were a lot of big claws in the wilderness, which can be heard from the place names. There were dozens of places named with the character tiger in the wilderness.
Lu Lu heard people talk about this before.
Those in the Tiger Hunting Team are not simple people.
But I heard Zhao Tuanqing continue to say: "I just thought about it, the big claws have powerful eyes, powerful ears, and they can run and jump very well. If we want to get within a hundred meters, it will be difficult. The distance is too far and it is not easy to hit, and
, there are too many rocks in that area, I estimate that each of the three of us only has a chance to fire one shot.
As soon as the gunshot is fired, the big paws will definitely be alerted, and they will run or jump whenever they move. With those stone tiles blocking it, it is difficult for us to have a chance to fire another shot, even if it is semi-automatic.
Therefore, among these three shots, we must hit them. Unless we are lucky, we will not have another chance. I believe that this big claw will not be stupid enough to run towards us and die."
Speaking of this, Zhao Tuanqing took a deep breath, looked at Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke, and then said: "If you hit the big claw, there are three places that are the most deadly. The first is the head. If you hit it from the forehead, you will die. Needless to say.
The second step is to hit the heart. This is too difficult. The bullet must rub the big paw under the chin and enter the chest. It is harder than hitting the head.
The third place is the waist of the big claw. You may not be able to kill him with one shot, but as long as you hit it, you will be paralyzed. But this position cannot be done too high or too low.
I am just saying this to tell you where to hit the most effective place. It will depend on the situation at that time. If you have the opportunity, hit the head as much as possible. The Han people have a saying, kill a tiger and cut its throat, kill a chicken and cut its throat... There is really no way
In this situation, you can only choose to hit where you can, and there is nothing wrong with that.
I won’t say much else. In short, seize every opportunity and find a way to keep it here.”
"It's just a matter of showing what you can do!"
Lu Lu nodded: "The position where we saw the big paw just now is two hundred meters away. It is blocked by those stone tiles and it is difficult to hit. Therefore, we must find a way to get closer. But it is hot today and there is no wind.
None. If there is wind, we can get closer against the wind...
In this case, if you want to get close, you may alert the big claws at any time, so I think we only have two chances to aim.
The three of us can't be too far apart. We can't be sure that the big paw will escape. After all, it has eaten people. It is entirely possible that we will pounce on people when we see them. We must take care of each other, and nothing will happen to anyone.
Therefore, when one person approaches, the other two must take aim. Whether they are rushing towards or running away, there will be two opportunities to aim and fire."
Lu Lu spent the longest time observing and thought a lot during that time.
However, the place is full of rocks and rugged places. It seems that if you move to other places, there will be cover. On the contrary, the direction where you can directly see the big paw just now is the best viewing angle, and you can't go too far.
If the position is too low, it will be blocked by the stone handle next to the big paw.
"The best location is right on the edge of the stone slab below!"
Lu Lu thought for a while and added.
When he said this, he even felt that this big claw was not just a beast, but also very good at choosing places to rest. It was extremely smart, and it was very beneficial to it no matter what.
As for when the big paw starts running, it will be more difficult to shoot, so Lu Lu said that everyone should use their abilities.
Zhao Tuanqing obviously knew this very well.
"That's it!" Zhao Yongke thought for a while based on his own experience, but felt that there was no good way.
Zhao Tuanqing hesitated at this time.
"Dad Zhao, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Zhao Tuanqing's expression was abnormal, Lu Lu asked aloud.
You have to take action soon, don't be distracted.
Zhao Tuanqing looked up at Lu Lu, then at Zhao Yongke, smiled slightly and said, "If possible, leave me the first shot."
Upon hearing this, Lu Lu suddenly laughed: "If possible, I will definitely leave it to you!"
Lu Lu knew clearly that Zhao Tuanqing was talking to him.
As for Zhao Yongke, he would definitely not think about competing with Zhao Tuanqing for such an opportunity.
They all understood what Zhao Tuanqing meant, it was just to fulfill the title of hunting tigers.
Seeing Lu Lu agree, Zhao Tuanqing smiled at him and stood up and walked towards the grass slope.
Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke also followed carefully.
When I arrived at the place, I saw that the big paw was still lying under the stone lid. You could see through the gap between the stone lids that the big paw was now lying on its side again, and the head was still not visible.
The three of them carefully followed the grass slope, using the cover of the bushes to move down bit by bit. After walking down for more than thirty meters, they hid behind a bush.
There is no cover in the place anymore, only knee-high weeds. If you want to reach the stone tiles below, you have to be at least 50 meters away.
In order to get as close as possible to ensure accurate shooting, Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke did not continue walking down, but squatted on both sides of the bush, one on the left and one on the right, both holding guns and aiming at the spot where the big paws were.
Location.
After Zhao Tuanqing took a deep breath, he risked his waist, carefully stretched out his feet and walked down slowly. He took each step as gently as possible, stood firmly, and then raised his back feet to continue the next step.
Time has become extremely long at this moment.
Zhao Tuanqing seemed to have never been so cautious in his life. After just ten steps, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
For such a small distance, Zhao Tuanqing spent at least three minutes.
