"What happened? Did you find anything?" Liu Zhiyong walked up to Zhang Peng and asked him.
"Look at this place on the tree, there are traces of the claws of the mountain raccoon, and I just saw the footprints on the ground which are also very fresh. This means that they just escaped." Zhang Peng turned to Liu Zhiyong and said. p>
"Then we've been discovered. What should we do? If we continue to chase, we should be steady first." Liu Zhiyong also looked at Zhang Peng, wanting to ask for his opinion.
"Keep chasing, let's focus on the change of wind direction this time, and then it's best to go around. Even if this mountain raccoon has a sharp nose, if we go against the wind and avoid it, can it still smell it?" Zhang Peng
It was indeed a bit careless and I didn't take this into consideration, so I quickly told Liu Zhiyong.
"Well, it's no wonder that this guy can't be beaten down. He is really too treacherous. We may have to suffer this time." Liu Zhiyong looked at the footprints extending deep into the forest, and then said to Zhang Peng.
"Okay, let's keep walking. When we get hungry, let's rest." Zhang Peng said to Liu Zhiyong.
Then the two of them continued to walk deeper into the forest, but this time they walked around the footprints. Every once in a while, they would return to Shanlizi's footprints. After seeing the direction clearly, they would continue to circle around, and they would stop from time to time.
I came down to check the change in the wind direction. Fortunately, it was northwest wind today, so if I walked deeper into the forest, I would be in the downwind area.
They continued walking like this for a long time, and the mountain raccoon seemed to be competing with them as they continued walking deeper into the forest.
However, Zhang Peng and Liu Zhiyong are a little unable to walk. There is no way. They haven't eaten anything since morning and they really can't keep up with their physical strength.
"Huh... Zhiyong, let's stop and take a rest. It's a bit hard to walk." Zhang Peng said to Liu Zhiyong.
"Well, I can't do it either. It's too tiring. I think the sky is almost gone. If it doesn't work, let's build a temporary shelter first and then we can continue tomorrow." Liu Zhiyong looked at the sky and then looked at it.
Zhang Peng said.
Although it's still bright and bright now, it won't be long before it gets dark in the woods. It gets dark earlier in winter, and it gets even earlier in the woods.
"Okay, then I won't leave today. Just stay here. I'll cut some branches and come back. You can clean up this place." Zhang Peng looked up at the sky after hearing this, then turned to Liu Zhiyong and said. p>
After saying that, Zhang Peng went to the surrounding area and cut down some pine tree branches. At this time of year, the pine tree branches were more suitable for building shelters, while the others were bare.
By the time Zhang Peng came back, Liu Zhiyong had temporarily cleaned up a small clean area in the camp. This area was not too big. This was Liu Zhiyong's intention, because it would be warmer and smaller if the two of them were closer.
The shelter can also prevent the rapid flow of air and has better warmth retention.
Then the two worked together to build a low sloping house. There was also a layer of pine branches underneath the sloping house. In front of the sloping house, they used dry branches picked up by Liu Zhiyong to build a small bonfire. The two sat down
On the pine branches, a fire was burning to keep warm and the dry food brought by the heat.
"Zhiyong, let's take turns to keep vigil tonight. We are quite deep in the forest, so this place is not too safe." Zhang Peng roasted dry food skewered with tree branches, and then said to Liu Zhiyong.
"Okay, no problem, I'll stay up until midnight and you can stay up at midnight?" Liu Zhiyong said to Zhang Peng.
"Okay, let's finish our meal. I'll take a rest after the meal, and then I'll take over your shift in the middle of the night." Zhang Peng said to Liu Zhiyong.
Afterwards, the two of them quickly finished the roasted dry food, then added pickles inside, and a simple dinner was over!
After Zhang Peng got into the sloping house, he quickly fell asleep. After all, the day was indeed very intense and there was no time for rest. Although the environment was very difficult, Zhang Peng put on his leather hat and fell asleep very quickly.
Just fell asleep.
When Zhang Peng woke up, he was woken up by the cold. Judging from the weather, it must have been late at night, while Liu Zhiyong was sitting by the fire and dozing off, wandering between being asleep and not sleeping.
Zhang Peng got out of the sloping house, and the movement also woke up Liu Zhiyong. He turned around to see Zhang Peng, and then relaxed his grip on the rifle.
"Are you awake? Are you sleepy? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Liu Zhiyong also yawned and said to Zhang Peng.
"No need, I'm full of energy now. You go and take a nap. I'll keep vigil next." Zhang Peng moved his frozen hands and feet and said to Liu Zhiyong.
Zhang Peng is also doing simple stretching movements, which can make the blood flow quickly and warm the whole body quickly.
When Liu Zhiyong heard Zhang Peng's words, he also nodded. Liu Zhiyong was indeed tired. He just resisted not falling asleep completely, and then he said hello and got into the sloping house. After a while, there was a sound coming from the sloping house.
Come Liu Zhiyong’s snoring.
Zhang Peng also sat next to the fire, filled it with some dry branches, took the dead wood he found, and threw it into the fire, so that the fire could not be extinguished for at least a few hours.
It was very quiet in the woods at night in winter, with only the faint crackling sound coming from the fire in front of them from time to time. Zhang Peng walked to the big tree far away from them. After taking care of his physical hygiene, he came back and sat where Liu Zhiyong had just sat.
Places I’ve passed.
Zhang Peng sat quietly, enjoying this moment very much, but he did not relax his vigilance. After all, the real danger is in the second half of the night, and this is the best time to hunt.
Just when Zhang Peng was enjoying the peaceful night, a black shadow slowly walked over from a distance. It approached Zhang Peng and the others cautiously, with madness in their eyes. This was what Zhang Peng and the others were following.
That mountain raccoon.
Originally, the mountain raccoon was far away from them, but it didn't stop until night. It knew that the people following it would definitely not continue to follow it at night, so it turned back. After all, it still had some confidence at this time.
Night is his world, and this mountain raccoon has nothing to be afraid of.
At night, Shanlizi's night vision is very strong. You can see Zhang Peng's fire from a long distance away. It also approaches slowly. After walking for a while, it stops, and then carefully observes the surrounding area.
There was no sign of danger, so he continued to walk towards Zhang Peng and the others. Shanlizi approached silently, but Zhang Peng didn't notice anything and didn't know that the danger was approaching.<
/p>
As they got closer and closer to Zhang Peng and the others, they could already clearly see Zhang Peng sitting by the fire. The mountain raccoon was ready, and it was about to attack.
However, the mountain lizard quickly climbed up the tree, and then lay down on the tree to observe. It was very patient, and Zhang Peng and Liu Zhiyong in front of it were already a piece of cake in its eyes.
Since it is a dish, there is no need to worry, it is ready to find the right time.
Liu Zhiyong was still snoring, and Zhang Peng was holding the branches in his hands, fiddling with the fire from time to time. Zhang Peng looked around boredly to observe the situation. This was routine. After all, Zhang Peng had not thought of this mountain raccoon.
