In the next two days, the group followed the river valleys, ravines, and rivers, constantly adjusting their direction and traveling north.
I didn't meet anyone else, I just met two Oroqen people who were hunting.
With Zhao Yongke here, communication is easier.
When asked about Baoxinggou, they didn't know, but they understood it when they talked about Little Silgen Qi River.
Through their guidance, Lu Lu discovered that even though he often climbed high to check the terrain and control the direction, during the three days of travel, there was still a considerable deviation, and he had unknowingly moved towards Xiufeng Town.
No wonder there is no trace of gold sand at all!
For three days, I have been walking through the vast mountains and forests, and no one has followed me to cause trouble. Now we are hundreds of kilometers away from Xinglong Valley.
I guess those who are looking for trouble don't know where to look.
Lu Lu weighed it up and decided to ride directly on horseback, hitting two roe deer on the way, and led a group of people around Xiufeng Town to the home of Walagan Tumulun.
The gifts you brought from home should also be given away.
Having an acquaintance in this mountain is always a good thing and should be maintained well.
Things needed to be kept secret, so in the evening, a few people walked along the forest on the edge of the forest farm road, avoiding passers-by as much as possible, and went directly to Tomulun's house.
Several people suddenly appeared on the grassland where Wu Leng of Tomulun's family was. The barking of two hunting dogs outside the simple fence startled the family. When they saw that it was Lu Lu and others, they all looked very surprised.
"Here we go again!"
Seeing Tuomulun coming towards him, Lu Lu also smiled and greeted him.
"Welcome...I heard you said you would come back before, so I have already thought about it in my heart!"
After saying hello, Tuomulun led Lu Lu into the house.
He saw eight pairs of deer antlers hanging in the house, as well as seven deer fetuses and some deer whips. It could be seen that during this period, Tomulun also hunted deer a lot.
Zhang Shaofeng and others unloaded the two roe deer, and then distributed the pastries and candies they brought to the children, as well as several sets of beautiful clothes.
Suen is a piece of clothing often worn by Oroqen people, but this thing is still more suitable for wearing in winter. When the weather gets hot in summer, it becomes a bit uncomfortable.
Whether it is clothes or candies and cakes, they are all very popular among the children. They all look at Lu Lu and others, and they become very intimate. They often circle around Lu Lu and others, and their uncle who pronounces awkward words is also heard.
Shout happily.
That night, Tomulun specially lit a large bonfire in front of Wulileng and entertained several people in the most enthusiastic and authentic way.
After eating and drinking around the campfire, Tuomulun asked: "I see you brought a wooden dustpan for gold mining. Are you going into the mountains to pan for gold this time?"
Naturally, the less we know about this kind of thing, the better.
Of course Lu Lu couldn't say that: "We came from Huma. When we passed that place, we became interested, so we bought a wooden dustpan and tried to play with it. It turned out that it was not for eating this bowl of rice.
Facts... The main reason for coming here this time is to look around, just like raising flying dragons, to see what is easy to raise, and to consider catching some in winter!"
Tomulun nodded and then asked: "How are you raising your flying dragon?"
"It's not bad. A lot of eggs were laid in the spring, and there were a lot of little flying dragons!"
"Then if you have anything ready to raise now, tell me. I am familiar with these places and I can help you. I know where the prey is."
"I haven't thought about it yet. Let's take a look around and learn more about it... When I get it right, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you in the winter."
"Inspection?" Tomulun smiled and used a very formal word: "I have served as a guide for some people before, and just like what you said, I first took a look and learned more about it, and they said they were here for an inspection.
"
Lu Lu laughed: "Yes, it's just an inspection. You have to hurry up. There are still a lot of things to do when you go back. You have to leave tomorrow."
"It's not easy to come here, and we don't want to stay for a few more days. Let us entertain you well."
"Time waits for no one!"
"Where are you going?"
"Continue to the north, toward Mohe and have a look."
The location of Baoxing Valley had already been determined through the Oroqen hunters he met in the mountains. The purpose was to prospect for gold, and the whereabouts had to be hidden. Lu Lu chose to hide it.
However, Lu Lu still underestimated Tomulun's enthusiasm.
Naturally, there was no need to take too much precaution in Wulileng in Tuomulun. A few people were able to sleep comfortably for a night. The next morning, after eating the meal prepared by Tuomulun, packing their things and setting off on the road, Tuomulun rode an Oroqen horse.
, insisted on sending a few people to the direction of Mohe and walked several miles before being persuaded by Lu Lu to return.
Of course, while chatting, Lu Lu also used Tuomulun to explore the surrounding terrain to learn more about the situation on the Little Silgen River. He also knew that the mountains there were more steep, and there were many big sauce vats in them.
The swamp is a very dangerous place.
Even for hunting, I rarely go there. The ravines make it very difficult to walk, and there are almost no people around.
Hearing this, Lu Lu felt more at ease, as long as it was secretive enough.
After Tomulun left, they immediately turned their horses and accelerated towards the east.
There were dense forests and many ravines along the way, making it difficult for even riding an Oroqen horse to pass, so we had to dismount and be led.
As for the doenjang jars, the Oroqen horses played a very good role. They seemed to be innately aware of the grassy bumps growing on the doenjang jars, and those grassy mounds could be used as footholds. They carried people on them by leaping, crossing, and passing easily.
In this regard, Zhuifeng is slightly inferior, but it is still possible to pass by following the footsteps of the Oroqen horses ridden by Zhao Yongke and others.
However, the place that can withstand the Oroqen horses seems to be in danger for the heavier Zhui Feng.
The grassy mounds that he often jumped over often sank, forcing Lu Lu to dismount and follow.
Even so, people and horses were inevitably covered in mud, and there were many dangers. Zhui Feng was afraid that he would get stuck in a big sauce vat and be unable to get out.
Fortunately, Chasing the Wind is flexible, and when I feel like I am sinking, I can quickly jump out in time along the path left by several people passing by, so I can be considered safe and sound.
"It should be almost done. Let's take a rest down by the river valley and fill our stomachs before going to explore the situation!"
When they marched into the afternoon, they estimated that they had gone more than 40 kilometers deep, almost entering the Little Silgen Air River Basin. Lu Lu asked a few people to stop.
It had been more than half a day. Several people had come all the way, and they were a little tired. After taking a short rest, they were ready to start cooking.
Just when a few people were collecting firewood, they suddenly heard the roar of Xiong Xiazi from the upper reaches of the valley. Only then did Yuanbao and the others suddenly scream.
At this time, the warm wind was moving northward. Although Lu Lu and others were downstream, they were upwind. Yuanbao and the others did not notice the existence of Xiong Xiazi, which was normal.
Lu Lu comforted Yuan Bao and the others, and when he saw Chen Xiuqing raising his gun, he was about to frighten the blind bear away as usual, but Lu Lu suppressed the gun and said, "Let's shoot a blind bear. We will probably fight in this area next."
You have to spend a lot of time in this place. If you find gold, then you will mainly focus on this matter. You can prepare some meat and put it away for people to eat or to feed the dogs."
Just as he was talking, there was a shaking in the woods upstream. A blind bear weighing three to four hundred pounds chased a small bear and rushed from the hillside to the edge of the woods.
How could that little bear be the opponent of the big bear blind man? He was quickly caught up with him, and with a slap, he flew far away and fell to the river beach.
The little bear let out a shrill scream. Before he could get up on the river beach, he saw the big bear rushing towards him. He opened his mouth and bit the little bear. He shook it a few times and threw it on the river beach. Then he circled around. Seeing that the little bear was still moving, he immediately
He rushed in for a few more bites.
"Fuck...what's going on?"
Zhang Shaofeng and Chen Xiuqing looked confused.
A blind bear kills a bear cub, which is something they have never seen before.
"I've seen blind bears know how to kill little bears," Liang Kangbo said.
Zhao Yongke also nodded: "I've seen it too!"
Then several people looked at Lu Lu, who was also staring at the blind bear.
"Lao Wu, do you know what's going on?" Zhang Shaofeng asked aloud.
Lu Lu thought for a while and said: "This is also my first time seeing you, but I know the reason."
"You still have to think clearly about the fight between big bears. If you chase the little bear to bite and kill the cubs, you must be crazy. It's against common sense. Lao Wu, tell me!" Liang Kangbo couldn't help but press.
"Bear is an animal that I find very strange. This thing, when squatting in a barn in winter, gives birth to cubs. The mother bear gives birth without pain. When she gives birth to cubs, she is in hibernation and gives birth in a daze.
When they come out, even though they can grow so big, in fact, the newly born cubs only weigh about a pound. The cubs crawl on the mother bear to find milk. By the time the cat winter is over, there will be two or three cubs.
It’s about a month old.”
This is probably what Lu Lu thinks is the most amazing thing about Blind Bear. Just like a giant panda giving birth to a cub, it ejects the cub directly. It seems that giving birth is an extremely easy thing.
"As for the current situation, it's because the blind bear is in estrus. When a female bear is leading a cub, she will not be in estrus. A female bear that wants to lead a cub will be in estrus unless the cub dies. Therefore, the male blind bear
, in order to get a chance to mate with a female bear, they usually adopt the most direct method of killing the cub..."
As soon as Lu Lu said these words, several people were stunned.
"How can you be so cruel just because of this trembling thing?"
Zhang Shaofeng shook his head when he heard this: "I suddenly feel that we are not unfair at all in beating so many blind bears every year."
"Cruel? They are all trying to continue their own bloodlines. The animal world has always been cruel... It's not just blind bears. I know that gorillas will do the same. In order to mate with female orangutans, they will also give away the cubs that the females try their best to protect.
Falling to death, and praying mantises, this one is special, the female will eat the male, and eat it while doing it..."
Lu Lu smiled: "There is nothing unreasonable about this. Even people who claim to be the spirits of all things are no exception. Think about what you have heard. Don't similar things often happen to people?
"
After hearing this, several people's expressions changed slightly.
After a while, Liang Kangbo sighed: "There are indeed many beasts who are worse than them!"
As he spoke, the blind bear ran into the forest again and climbed to higher ground.
Not long after, I saw a blind little bear clumsily climbing up a larch tree halfway up the mountain.
As the trees shook violently, the blind male bear who had just killed a bear cub rushed up the tree trunk quickly.
Looking at that posture, it goes without saying that it was heading for the second bear cub.
When encountering danger, the bear cub chooses to climb to a high place to escape. This is his innate ability. Fortunately, he climbed high enough. When the blind bear reached the high place, the treetops were too thin and he did not dare to climb up for a while.
Obviously, it also knew that once the treetop broke and fell twenty or thirty meters above the ground, it would probably be thrown to death.
Unable to reach the bear cub, it could only growl at the bear cub from below.
Several people just watched this rare scene, but did not take action immediately.
At this moment, another roar came from the forest, it was another blind bear.
The branches and leaves were swaying, and the blind bear that rushed after him also climbed up towards the larch tree.
This new bear weighed more than 200 kilograms, which was not that big. After climbing up the tree trunk, it kept scratching at the male blind bear above, forcing the male bear to slide down the trunk.
The two blind bears started fighting on the tree, causing the treetops to swing wildly.
"It's a female bear protecting her cubs..." Lu Lu whispered.
"Help it!" Looking at the female bear at a disadvantage, Zhang Shaofeng seemed to be touched.
Lu Lu nodded, stood up, took out the semi-automatic he was carrying, opened the dust cover of the scope, briefly estimated the distance, and looked through the scope at the tree standing two hundred meters away.
The male bear, who made the female bear howl loudly, took aim blindly, and then gently pulled the trigger.
There was a loud gunshot, and bullets were fired towards the blind bear.
Immediately afterwards, the blind bear fell backwards from a high place, and the crash of broken branches and the dull sound of hitting the ground could be heard in the distance.
