The large paw and footprints appeared outside the fence of the sika deer farm, and they were clearly meant for the sika deer.
Sika deer has always been one of Big Paw's favorite foods.
"What should we do, Brother Lu?" Chen Xiuqing asked, feeling a little confused.
In front of the big paw, even a semi-automatic hand cannot bring enough comfort.
This thing is too fast and is extremely good at hiding and ambush. Unless you keep your eyes on it, you won't know where it will pop out and attack in the next second.
Lu Lu had attacked Big Claw, but it was an ambush from a long distance. He knew the location of Big Claw, and the location was open, making it convenient for him to do so.
We are in the woods now, and things are a bit troublesome.
And without knowing his location, he clearly knew that he was still just prey.
Considering the speed that his big claws could suddenly attack and his tendency to attack from behind, Lu Lu was really not sure he could kill him in a hurry.
The key is that you can't shoot randomly without hurting anyone.
Lu Lu did not answer Chen Xiuqing's question immediately. He glanced around, including the trees. After not finding the big paw, his eyes fell back on the paw prints left on the ground.
Looking at the paw prints, I saw that they were walking deeper along the fence, including the footprints of the two tiger cubs, and they did not immediately climb over the fence and enter the breeding farm.
"Go back and find Brother Feng and the others..."
Lu Lu put down the semi-automatic and hung it in front of him. He re-grabbed the ski poles wrapped with braided leather ropes around his wrists with both hands, shoved them on the snow, and led the way towards the place where Raymond practiced skiing.
Chen Xiuqing quickly followed.
Raymond stepped on a short wooden horse, slightly bent his legs, and skied down the hillside. The further down, the faster he went. Seeing that he was about to lose control and hit the red pine below, his body quickly tilted to the right, preparing to go around the red pine.
, As a result, I avoided the close contact with the red pine, but failed to get past the small bush on the side. I was hung up and suddenly fell forward to the ground.
He was already in his thirties, in his prime, and had a lot of strength, but he didn't have the flexibility he had when he was in his teens or twenties. When he learned to ski, he was much clumsier than Lu Lu and others.
Fortunately, the snow that has fallen in the past few days has piled up a thick layer. It seems that the fall has been severe, but it is not harmful.
From being barely able to stand firmly and sliding away, to now controlling the speed and being able to walk through sparse trees, I have made great progress.
However, he was always a little impatient and always hoped that he could skate faster.
At the end of the day, there was a lot of wrestling.
Zhang Shaofeng, who was watching from the slope, quickly slid down: "Is it okay, brother?"
"It's okay!" Raymond turned over and sat down on the snow.
The snow in the Northeast is "dry", unlike the snow in the south, which will melt quickly and soak your clothes.
"You have to slow down and don't be too impatient! If you fall down, you are afraid of being hit by a stone or poked by a branch, which is quite painful!" Zhang Shaofeng said with a smile.
He was about to sit down next to him when he suddenly saw Lu Lu and Chen Xiuqing approaching quickly from a distance on skis. They met Zhao Yongke who was waiting below and Liang Kangbo who was training alone. Then he shouted twice and said something to the people above.
What? It was too far away to hear clearly, but something must have happened.
"Let's go down and take a look!"
"Yeah!"
The two of them slid down the hillside and met Lu Lu and others a few minutes later.
"The big paw we found last time is here again. We saw the big paw and the footprints of two tiger cubs outside the fence on the east side of the deer farm... Let's go back to the deer farm and call the deer back! We have to hurry up and follow
Lin Yulong, Zhou Fangjing and the others who are stationed at the breeding farm say hello."
The snow was falling intermittently, and the footprints like that were clearly visible and were not covered by snowflakes. The big claws should have just appeared not long ago.
Lu Lu was worried that it would hurt the sika deer, and even more worried that it would hurt people.
Hearing that the matter was so serious, Raymond and others did not dare to be careless. They nodded and skied on the snow to the deer farm.
On the way back, they saw three militiamen, Lin Yulong and Liu Bao, who were also patrolling on wooden horses. Lu Lu quickly called them back.
When they arrived at the deer farm, Raymond and Zhang Shaofeng climbed up the nearby hill. They knocked on the basin and shouted into the forest. After a while, the sika deer came out of the forest one after another. They thought they were feeding food and headed towards the breeding farm.
Running from the field.
Liang Kangbo and Zhao Yongke went to the wild goose farm and bee farm respectively, and called Zhou Fangjing, Meng Zhaohua and others who were guarding the two farms to the deer farm.
"Eighteen sika deer are here!" Chen Xiuqing counted the sika deer that went straight to the feeding trough after entering the deer farm, and found that there were a lot of them.
Lu Lu nodded slightly, and when a group of people gathered at Raymond's house, he said to them: "There is a big claw nearby. Don't run around today. We are all here to guard."
"What should we do with the big claws?" Zhang Shaofeng asked urgently.
"You can't beat it, so you can only drive it away. The tiger cub's big paws are leading it, but it is much more fierce than usual...Brother Feng, you come with me and call the militia brothers over. There are many people.
Only when the noise is louder can we start driving them away. I will go to the forest farm and the village to inform everyone not to enter the mountains easily."
Even though it's snowing, there are still many people going into the mountains to catch pikes, set traps, and hunt. Once these people come across the big claws wandering around, it's too easy for them to get into accidents.
Zhang Shaofeng nodded, went out first, got on the Oroqen horse, held the gun, and rode back.
Lu Lu also followed closely, mounted Zhuifeng and chased after him.
When passing the forest farm, Lu Lu turned in and went directly to Nie Jingguo. After learning that Nie Jingguo had gone to the district for a meeting, he had no choice but to go to the forest farm security office and inform him about the appearance of the big claws on the mountain.
At the beginning of winter, logging is coming. On the mountain, several gang leaders are engaged in logging production. They are busy in designated shifts everywhere. It is also very dangerous for people to be scattered. The people from the security office do not dare to delay.
I quickly picked up my semi-automatic rifle and ran to inform various places.
Then Lu Lu rode Zhui Feng to catch up with Zhang Shaofeng, and together they returned to Xiushan Village, went directly to the threshing floor, and knocked on the section of railroad track hanging on the persimmon tree.
The sound of "dang-dang-dang" spread throughout the village, and people in the village gathered from all directions.
Lu Lu didn't bother to say anything to a group of people, so he went directly to Wang Demin, told him the matter, and asked Wang Demin to make arrangements with the villagers who had gathered together. He himself was busy with Zhang Shaofeng to greet the militiamen.
Open the gun safe and distribute guns and ammunition.
Many militiamen and young men went to forest farms to cut trees, while those at home were mostly old people and women.
After a lot of work, only thirteen militiamen were summoned.
There are really few people, but we can only make do with it. They have all received militia training and can use guns. They also participate in spring hunting and autumn protection every year. Especially in the past two years, led by Lu Lu and others, several
The man also became familiar with hunting and became bolder.
After leading a group of people back to the farm and briefly explaining the situation, Lu Lu glanced at the four people including Lin Yulong and Liu Bao. Some of them looked very excited and said they wanted to see what the big claws were capable of.
, but more importantly, they are a little worried. They all know that the big claws are powerful and this is a fatal thing.
"The purpose of gathering everyone is not to hit Big Claw. We have only one purpose, to scare Big Claw with gunshots and roars and drive it into the mountains. When we go in later, everyone must obey the command and join us.
Twenty-three people, even if we can't fight, there are still a few people, so we must stay together and don't run around. If people run away, even if they are semi-automatic, they may not be able to deal with it."
Lu Lu then made arrangements: "Fourth brother, you and the second and third brothers form a group and lead nine people. My eldest brother and Qingzi, I and I will lead eight people. After finding the big paw, use the horns from both sides.
To drive them away, we must stick together!"
He emphasized again.
"What if the big paw can't drive it away? What if it's not afraid and rushes over to bite someone?" someone asked.
"You're stupid. If your big claws don't run away, you'll bite people instead. What else can you do besides beating them? Are you waiting to be bitten to death by the big claws?"
Zhang Shaofeng said with a smile.
Hearing this, a group of people also laughed.
Divided in this way, a group of twelve and a group of eleven people each have about ten guns, which is enough firepower to kill a big claw.
Mainly, this is also a problem that has to be solved. Allowing the big claws to wander around will not only have a great impact on Lu Lu's family farm, but also on Xiangshui Creek Forest Farm and Xiushan Tun, and even Huilong Tun.
A threat.
The territory of the big paw is too large. No one knows where it will wander. It cannot find enough food and can easily hurt people and livestock.
After there were no problems, the personnel quickly divided into two teams, led by Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke, and took a shortcut from the deer farm directly towards the place where the big paw footprints were found.
Everyone remained silent and carefully watched their surroundings while trudging through the snow that was no deeper than their calves.
No horses were used, and no wooden horses were trampled.
Not all horses have encountered big claws like Lu Lu's Zhui Feng and Zhao Yongke's Oroqen horse, and are not so afraid. If it were other horses, they might easily lose control once they sense the scent of the big claws.
It's easy and fast to slide downhill on a wooden horse, but you have to walk up step by step when going uphill. It's better to be familiar with it, otherwise, it will be more difficult than just throwing your feet away and walking. Although these native militiamen mostly use wooden horses
, but I just play it on weekdays and am not proficient in it.
Who has no problem practicing these things in the cold?
Zhao Yongke has lived in the mountains since he was a child and cannot live without hunting; Zhang Shaofeng is a descendant of an old hero of the Anti-Japanese War and was asked to master the skills of ski shooting; Chen Xiuqing wanted to change his life through hunting and forced himself to learn in order to "fly on the snow"
as goal.
Therefore, the three of them have made a lot of efforts in this area and are very successful. This is not the case for others. When it comes to using it, the Trojan horse will only be a hindrance.
Whether you are riding a horse or skiing, it is not conducive to hug each other for protection, so just choose to walk. If you encounter a situation, you can dodge and be more flexible.
The group of people arrived at the place where the big paw and footprints were found smoothly, and climbed over the fence. They all looked at the big paw and footprints with curiosity, which were larger than the palm of a human hand. Those who had never seen them were all amazed. They were indeed big paws.
This also makes people who are contemptuous quickly restrain themselves.
What a beast this must be.
It's going to be fatal. It's really not a joke.
Each one of them held the gun carefully, and then followed Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke's footsteps along the big paw footprints.
At the Xiangshui River Forest Farm, at a logging point near Dongying Valley and close to the top of the mountain, several loggers heard the sound of whistles coming from the bottom of the mountain, and knew that this was calling people to come down the mountain.
"What's going on today? I've been working up the mountain for less than three hours, so I'm going down the mountain!" A lumberjack muttered, looking at the half-sawed tree in front of him.
The other group's tree has not yet been knocked down.
"It's inexplicable. I don't know what happened. The trees have been sawn like this. No matter what, the trees have to be brought down."
He glanced down the mountain and looked back at the few people: "Don't worry about them, Lao Ma, Shun Fu, continue to knock down the two trees you saw, and the others will cut branches."
This leader was the leader of the No. 13 logging site where Lu Lu and Zhao Tuanqing and his son responded to the invitation of Shuixi Forest Farm last year to hunt wolves at the forest farm.
And the one he called Shunfu was his younger brother.
