Zhang Shiliang kept squatting down to look for traces along the way, and then after identifying the direction, he led everyone to find the Mountain King.
The others were not idle either. When Zhang Shiliang lowered his body to look for traces and directions, they would stand in a zigzag pattern and be alert to the surrounding situation. If something was wrong, they could react quickly. They marched like this for half an hour, stopping and stopping, which kept everyone's nerves in a tense state, making them very tired. This was something they had not expected before, and any disturbance in the middle would also make them very tired.
Everyone was nervous for a moment. They didn't expect that the pressure from the Mountain King was so strong. Even before they met, everyone was very exhausted.
"Everyone, let's take a rest first, and we'll leave later." Zhang Shiliang also stopped, and then said to everyone.
"Okay, I'm so tired now. I'm much more tired than when I killed the leopard before." Zhao Laowen also said to everyone.
"Brother, can you find it? Why do I feel a little weak in my legs?" Zhang Er said to Zhao Laowen with a smile.
"You worthless thing, you haven't even seen the King of the Mountain yet, why are you so weak?" Zhao Laowen also glared at him, and then said.
When Zhang Er heard what Zhao Laowen said, he lowered his head and said nothing in aggrieved manner. Everyone laughed when they saw this situation, which dissipated some of the tense atmosphere.
"Okay, let's rest for a while, and then we can continue to move forward. My hunch is that we are not far away, so we need to be more careful later." Zhang Shiliang also said seriously to everyone, this time is not normal.
I'm kidding, if I'm not careful I'll be left on the mountain.
Then everyone continued to follow Zhang Shiliang, but their progress became slower and slower, until Zhang Shiliang suddenly stopped.
"Cannon, what's wrong?" When Zhao Laowen saw Zhang Shiliang suddenly stopped and squatted down, he quickly came over and asked.
"Be careful, we should have entered its territory, don't be careless." Zhang Shiliang also said cautiously.
"How can you tell?" Zhao Laowen looked around suspiciously, but found no trace of anything, so he asked suspiciously.
"Look at the big tree on our right. Is there a very shallow claw mark? This should be left when it marked its territory." Zhang Shiliang did not turn his head and continued to scan the area with his eyes.
Looking ahead, seeing that there was no movement, he answered.
After Zhao Laowen heard what Zhang Shiliang said, he looked in the direction he said. There were indeed traces of claws, but they were very shallow. It was thanks to Zhang Shiliang that he could see it. Without taking into account other people's words,
Absolutely ignore it.
"Ah? Is it possible that something else was left behind?" He Yong also asked in confusion after hearing what the two said.
"Probably not. Nothing else can be that high. Only the height of the Mountain King is similar." Zhang Shiliang said in the affirmative after hearing He Yong's question.
"Okay, now, stop talking. You can only speak in emergencies, and keep quiet at other times." Zhang Shiliang turned his head and said solemnly to everyone.
Everyone nodded when they heard this, and then followed Zhang Shiliang quietly. After all, they were all going up the mountain. They knew what they should do at this time. Except for Zhang Er, who had some calf cramps, everyone else was in good condition.
Not bad.
Just after Zhang Shiliang led everyone to walk forward for a few hundred meters, he discovered a new situation. In front of him was a tragic scene. A roe deer with only half of its body lying on the ground, and it was already frozen hard.
.
Everyone carefully observed the surroundings and saw that nothing happened. Then they cautiously stepped forward and looked at the roe deer on the ground. They found that there were many marks of bites and scratches on the roe deer's body.
Blood stains mixed with snow.
There are obvious bite marks on the neck and back of the roe deer on the ground, and the bite marks are very deep, almost breaking the neck bones, and leaving traces of the roe deer's struggle.
"Oh my god, this is really fierce. Look here, it broke the neck with one bite. Tsk, tsk..." He Yong fiddled with the roe deer's head with his hands, and the neck was completely broken.
He also turned around in shock and said to Zhao Laowen and the others.
"This is obviously its territory. Let's take a look and continue moving forward until we reach its lair. Only then can we be sure that we can capture it." Zhang Shiliang turned his head and said to everyone.
Everyone nodded after hearing this, and after getting up, they followed Zhang Shiliang and continued walking forward. After all, their firepower was absolutely as good as that of the hunting team sent down from above.
Those guys are equipped with fully automatic machine guns. With the firepower they are equipped, there is no problem in fighting a small encounter. Let alone this mountain king, it will not be taken down in minutes.
Zhao Laowen and the others, however, work together. Although they are considered well-equipped in the village, they are nothing compared to the hunting teams sent from above.
So they must find the Mountain King's lair. When it is defenseless, this is the best time to kill it.
Everyone continued to search forward. As they searched forward, they would see traces of the Mountain King from time to time. There were more and more scratches on the trees and traces on the snow.
Zhang Shiliang led everyone to follow the traces and continue to go deeper. Not long after, Zhang Shiliang suddenly stopped, and then gestured to everyone to squat down.
"What's wrong? Cannon, what did you find?" Zhao Laowen came up and asked Zhang Shiliang.
"Look ahead, it should be the place where the Mountain King rests." Zhang Shiliang pointed forward with his finger, and then whispered to Zhao Laowen and the others.
Following the direction of Zhang Shiliang's finger, he saw an obvious nest with fur and animal residue scattered nearby. This should be the temporary resting place of the Mountain King, but no sign of the Mountain King was found.
"What should we do next? Cannon, do you have any ideas?" Zhao Laowen stared at the nest in front, and then whispered to Zhang Shiliang.
"I think we can only stay here. It would be too dangerous to follow him. Maybe we all have to stay in the mountain." Zhang Shiliang heard Zhao Laowen's words and replied to him.<
/p>
"There is no place that can be defended here. Should we look for a suitable place?" Deng Rong raised his head and looked around, and then said to everyone's suggestions.
"Well, Deng Rong is right. This place is indeed not very safe. We have to find a suitable place. The terrain should be higher, and it is best to be downwind. We should also have support behind us to prevent being attacked from behind.
"When Zhao Laowen heard Deng Rong's words, he also said to everyone.
This is related to their own safety, so they give more thought to it. After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. Now their only advantage is the number of people. Only by staying together can they exert their advantage.<
/p>
Immediately afterwards, everyone subconsciously bypassed the front and went up the mountain from the side. It was appropriate to be condescending.
