Zhao Laowen, Zhang Peng and others followed the roe deer's footprints and came to a small hill to the north. The mountain was not high and had a gentle slope, stretching to ten miles away. Zhang Peng and others walked to see where the roe deer had gone.
?Turn over
On a large gentle slope, they saw several animals on the top of a hill five or six hundred meters away in the north. Zhang Peng and others were overjoyed. They looked like roe deer. They were probably the same roe deer that the gunner had seen before.
.
The hill where these roe deer were staying was a bun-shaped mountain. In order not to disturb them, Zhang Peng and others slowed down and changed their direction. Zhao Laowen and others walked slowly toward the lower right side of the hillside. Wang Fugen
Take the hunting dog and walk to the lower left, waiting for Wang Fugen to take the hunting dog to drive the roe deer in the direction of Zhao Laowei.
The roe deer was still on the top of the hill and did not find Zhao Laowen and the others, nor did they run away. After walking about 500 meters, they came to the ravine on the lower right side of the hillside. At this time, due to the shape of the mountain, the slope at the top of the hill was relatively large.
now
The roe deer could no longer be seen from where Zhao Laowen and others were. Zhao Laowen raised his hand, and everyone stopped and took off their guns from their shoulders. Holding the guns in both hands, they bent over and climbed cautiously towards the top of the mountain. Zhao Laowen, Zhang Peng and others searched ahead with their eyes as they walked, not daring to breathe heavily. The higher they walked, the taller the withered grass became, but they could not see the roe deer. After about ten minutes, they finally climbed up the hill.
the top of
But still no roe deer was found. Zhao Laowen straightened up and looked around. Zhang Peng wondered if the roe deer had discovered them before and ran away from the left first? But that shouldn't be the case. On the left was Wang Fugen's dog gang. When Zhang Peng was wondering what was going on, his eyes suddenly lit up. Zhang Peng saw that right where they were standing, about thirty meters in front of them, in the withered grass, there were several roe deer lying in the withered grass. He could only
I saw some of them with bifurcated horns on their heads. They should be those roe deer. These roe deer are well hidden and similar in color to withered grass. It’s really hard to spot them.
Zhang Peng quickly touched Zhao Laowen with his arm, and then turned his head in the direction of the roe deer. Zhao Laowen understood the idea and looked in that direction. After seeing it clearly, his face lit up with joy. He quickly raised his gun, pulled the bolt again, and followed.
There was a clanging sound as everyone pulled the bolts of their guns, standing in unison, aiming in the direction of the roe deer, waiting for Wang Fugen's dog gang to drive them away.
Suddenly, a burst of dog barking came from the left. The roe deer were frightened, and they all stood up. Under the leadership of the leading roe deer, they ran away one by one to the right of the crowd, jumping as they ran.
Although these roe deer reacted so quickly, Zhang Peng and others had already taken aim. Zhang Peng held the gun with his left hand and the index finger of his right hand on the trigger. He raised the gun and aimed with the beating of the roe deer, and pulled the trigger.
The gunshot sounded, and the roe deer fell down. Other gunners also pulled the trigger one after another, and the roe deer responded one after another.
The roe deer fell down with a sound, and only the last one ran down the steep slope on the right side of the mountain. The roe deer ran in the direction that Zhang Peng and others had just climbed up. The roe deer ran down the steep slope and suddenly stopped, tilting its head and looking at Zhang
At this time, Zhang Peng and others only had one thing to say: This roe deer is really stupid.
Zhao Laowen seemed to be used to it. He took aim and shot down the last roe deer. This time he harvested seven roe deer. Together with yesterday's wild boar, the harvest this winter was already very good.
The hunting dogs were disemboweled, fed, and worshiped to the mountain gods. The hunting dogs had eaten and drank enough in the past two days. They had eaten internal organs for two days in a row, and their bellies were all bulging.
Everyone gathered around, happily roasting roe deer meat. The hunting dogs were all full, and they lay beside them one after another. There were cheers and laughter for a while, and everyone was celebrating the victory.
"Okay, everyone, please be quiet. Let me say a few words first. Everyone has worked hard these past two days. After these two days of continuous high-intensity hunting, I see that everyone is very tired, and the hounds are the same, so I decided that tomorrow
Rest for a day and set off back to the village the day after tomorrow."
After Zhao Laowen finished speaking, he looked at everyone, and everyone agreed. Indeed, they were exhausted from the two days of continuous mountain climbing and hunting. They could no longer continue hunting, even if they could stand the hunting dogs.
In this way, Zhao Laowen ordered everyone to carry the roe deer back, and then he took the lead in carrying the roe deer and walked forward, while the gunners carried the rest to Xuewozi.
When everyone returned to Xuewozi, Zhao Laowen ordered Liu Zhiyong to go back to Cui Weixing, tell him about their current situation, and ask him to prepare a carriage so that when the prey comes down the mountain, they can use the carriage to pull them back to the village. If they let them
It would be unrealistic to carry all of this back.
After Liu Zhiyong set off, the rest of the time became much easier. Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming planned to go out for a walk together and search nearby to see if they could find any more traces, so as to provide them with information for their own hunting.
Some clues.
The road in winter is really difficult. Zhao Chunming complained about it while walking. Zhang Peng took him up the mountain. There would be much less snow on the mountain, and it would be easier for prey to find traces on the ridge.
Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming stopped to observe, and vaguely noticed traces of animal activity not far away. A series of footprints were particularly obvious in the snow. The footprints looked like those of wolves, but the prints were a little blurry. Zhang Peng and the two hurriedly
Follow these footprints forward. Since there are wolves, it means there must be prey nearby. Maybe this is another big harvest.
The two of them walked for about half an hour looking for footprints, and then they saw something happening in front of them. They quickly lowered their bodies and slowly moved forward. When they were close enough, Zhang and Peng slowly straightened up, using the big tree as cover.
Looking at the situation ahead, I saw that the ground in front was a mess, as if something had gone through a struggle, but now there was no sign of the struggle.
Zhang Peng and the two stepped forward and looked at the marks on the ground. Zhang Peng squatted down and picked up the hair that fell on the ground. The dark yellow hair looked like it belonged to a carnivore.
"Second brother, what is this?"
Zhao Chunming also looked at the hair in Zhang Peng's hand curiously, and then looked around again. He felt that it should be a meat-eating thing, but he was not sure what it was.
"The hair looks like that of a roe deer. It seems that a small roe deer was killed. Although the footprints on the ground are messy, you can still see some marks."
Zhang Peng rubbed his hair with his fingers, then looked around and found dragging traces heading towards the east mountain.
"Shanlizi? Then let's catch up quickly,"
Zhao Chunming immediately picked up his gun and wanted to chase in the direction of the trace. This mountain raccoon was not common, and it was usually considered a dragon that never saw its tail.
Zhang Peng was not in a hurry. He had been leaving for some time after watching the situation. With Shanlizi's intelligence, there would be no gain in chasing him now. As expected, when the two of them reached the hillside, there were a bunch of people blocking them.
The traces of the rocks disappeared here. Zhao Chunming felt very frustrated, while Zhang Peng felt that this was a normal state. If it was so easy to find, how could Shanlizi become one of the top hunters in the mountains?
