It snowed for two days in a row, and it started to clear up on the third day. The whole sky and earth were completely white. There was still a little bit of green in the first two days, but now it is covered tightly with slightly thinner snow.
The layer became thicker again, and when one walked up, it was already submerged to the knees. The morning sunlight shone on the silvery white, and the whole sky and earth were filled with crystal light, which was cold and dazzling.
When he got up early in the morning, Ju An and a group of cowboys began to clear the snow in the yard and roof of the ranch. The few little things were full of fun and followed Ju An happily. As for Dai Jin and Xiao Jin,
While chasing and playing in the sky, Thomas installed a slightly curved wooden board under the front bumper of the pickup truck and walked on the road in the ranch several times, and the path in the ranch was cleared again.
The snow was so deep that it had already covered the wheels of four-wheel drive vehicles, so today the cowboys also saddled up their horses and rode their horses to take care of the cattle. Ju An and Old Thomas helped Wynn drive the gray cattle from the warehouse.
After getting out, he rushed to the vicinity of the warehouse and let the cattle dig the grass under the snow.
After handling all this, Ju An and Thomas Wynn began to wait for the hired helicopter to fly over. The three people sat on the sofa, Thomas and Wynn each held a gun in their hands, and carefully
After wiping it, Ju An also took out his rifle and wiped it. The table
The last box of bullets had been opened, and Ju An found that a cross groove had been cut on the bullets, so that a small cross was formed on the bullets. Ju An knew that this could increase the power of the bullets. No wonder Thomas said. Even if the bullets are fired
If you can't catch the wolf's vitals, you will definitely die.
"This snow is good for us. As long as the wolves are not hiding in the dense forest, they can be easily discovered. However, the chance of them hiding in the dense forest is too small. They must have spent most of the day looking for food.
If not the whole pack would starve," Thomas said as he wiped his gun.
Ju An nodded: "Where to search today? By the way, we can only kill the wolf king today, and leave the others as long as they don't come to the pasture to cause trouble."
Thomas nodded and said: "Teach the wolves a lesson. They will know. I think we will search from the place where we last found traces of wolves today. The range of activities of wolves is quite wide, twenty or thirty miles."
Scope. No luck. Will have to search all day."
The three people wiped for a while, then they heard a whirring sound outside the house. Thomas stood up, shouldered the gun and said: "Let's go, the helicopter is here" and led the two people out of the house.
When Ju An and the others came out of the house, they saw two small helicopters hovering in the sky slowly landing on the open snow not far from the barn. The three of them hurriedly ran in the direction of the landing.
When Ju An got closer and took a closer look, he felt a little disappointed. These two helicopters were really too small for his uncle. They were basically just oval-shaped eggs with a slightly thicker tail behind them. The upper part was
I set up a few propeller blades, exactly like what Ju An saw online.
It’s different. It’s said to be for four people, but if you look at the entire space inside, it’s smaller than the car that my brother-in-law had before. But from the outside, you can’t see any difference when you sit inside, because most of it is transparent.
, now the pilots inside can clearly see it.
Thomas took Ju An and Wynn to say hello to the two pilots, and the three of them boarded the helicopter respectively. Ju An and Thomas boarded one helicopter, and Wynn boarded the other one alone, waiting for Ju An to buckle the safety
After I sat down for a while and put on the headset, the driver asked if everything was okay.
Seeing the two people nodding, the helicopter slowly flew up and sat inside. Ju An felt that the sound insulation effect was really good. The loud noise outside didn't seem so noisy as soon as he closed the door.
There is only a slight buzz, so you don't need to be too loud when talking inside.
Then the pilot's voice came from the headset: "Sam 2, please answer if you hear me!".
"Sam 2 heard it" came the voice of another pilot from the headset.
"Fly with me, Sam 2, over!" "Roger! over!"
I felt a slight tilt, and the plane had already circled half a small circle, flying towards the mountain forest. Thomas was in the front seat giving directions to the pilot, and Ju An was sitting in the back seat with his head stretched out, immersed in the excitement of flying in a helicopter for the first time.
, looked out the window and saw another one not far away, with Wynn sitting on it. He saw Ju An looking towards him and extending his hand to wave.
Thomas turned to Ju An and said, "An! You'd better put on your glasses, otherwise your eyes won't be able to bear it after a while."
After listening to Thomas' words, Ju An quickly put on the sunglasses in his pocket and continued to look out the window. This time, the surroundings were not so dazzling. Looking from the plane, the entire mountain was a silvery white, illuminated by the sun.
It shines with cold silver light, and the light-receiving point close to the ridge reflects the pale red sunlight very beautifully.
Seeing that the plane had flown out of the pasture several times and was flying towards the mountainside, Ju An stopped thinking about looking at the scenery and picked up the telescope around his neck to look at the ground. The entire ground was covered with snow. The height of the plane flying
It is not very high, only about seven or eight meters from the top of the tree. If there are some things on the ground, you can see them clearly. Even Ju An can clearly see the rabbits hopping on the snow and the rabbits hopping on the branches.
Jumping little squirrel.
At this time, Thomas's voice came to my ears: "We are flying toward the southeast, and the other one is flying toward the southwest. The two planes are searching separately. When we find the wolves, we will follow them first and then notify the other plane."
After hearing Thomas' words, the pilot spoke to the other pilot. Ju An saw the plane not far away turning around and flying toward the southwest. Ju An's plane also changed its direction. At this time, Ju An's side
It's like facing the sun. Although the sunshine in winter is not very strong, but separated by a transparent cover that is equivalent to a sphere, after a while, you will feel warm and unusually comfortable.
Just squatting on the plane, staring down, watching a few deer or bison passing by from time to time. Once the initial excitement passed, it seemed a bit boring. It had been almost an hour.
There was no sign of the wolves yet, and Ju An was so bored that he almost wanted to yawn.
After searching for more than half an hour, Ju An still didn't see the shadow of the wolf pack, so he felt a little impatient. He looked at Thomas and the pilot in front of him. The two of them still maintained their initial appearance, looking around calmly.
Looking around, Ju An had no choice but to take a few deep breaths, calm his mind, and continued to look at the ground with his telescope.
"The wolves don't seem to be active in this area. There are no traces down there. We are flying a little higher up the mountain," Thomas said to the pilot next to him.
Just as Ju An was about to fly upward, another pilot's voice came from the headset: "Sam 1, we have found a wolf pack, please answer if you hear it!".
"Sam 2, Sam 1 received, your position, Sam 1 will be over immediately." Listening to a series of directions in the headset, the helicopter immediately turned around and flew towards the other one at full speed.
After flying at full speed for more than ten minutes, he saw another plane flying along the hillside. When it flew next to it and the two planes were parallel, Ju An stretched his head and saw the wolves below. He didn't need a telescope at all.
A group of gray and black wolves jumped forward one by one on the snow. I counted eight wolves, and they ran in a straight line forward under the leadership of a gray wolf.
At this time, the helicopter slowly lowered its altitude. The pilot handed a belt-like thing to Thomas and Ju An. He imitated Thomas and tied the thing around his waist, and then hung the buckle on it to the warehouse.
Thomas opened the cabin door and stood on a ring on the top.
On the landing gear, Ju An also imitated Thomas and stood up with a rifle in his hand. Only then did he feel the wind in the mountains, which penetrated his clothes and penetrated his bones with coldness. He almost dropped the gun.
, shuddered, shook his arms, took a few breaths, and then felt a little better.
The wolves below seemed to have sensed the danger. They jumped faster on the ground and ran forward with all their strength. However, the snow was too deep. Even if they ran hard, their speed was not very fast. Ju An looked through the visor.
, aimed at the leading gray wolf below, carefully aimed at it, and then pulled the trigger. With a bang, a piece of snow splashed next to the gray wolf. The plane shook slightly just now and missed.
Before Ju An could take aim again, two consecutive gunshots were fired, and the gray wolf below had already fallen to the ground. As soon as the gray wolf died, the wolves below suddenly seemed to be frozen, stunned for a moment and then arrogantly
Shouting and running around, Ju An picked up the binoculars and took a look. The good guy was shot in the stomach and another shot in the neck. There was a big hole in the whole neck, a wound the size of a fist, and maybe even the spine.
was interrupted.
"You two are really good at shooting! My shots all missed. One of you was hit in the neck and the other in the stomach." Ju An said to Thomas with a smile, and then retracted into the cab.
Thomas also retracted his body, closed the door and replied with a smile: "You can shoot some moving targets in the future, or go hunting rabbits when you have nothing to do. That will be fine. You will know after you have hunted for a long time. You will know by feel.
Can’t hit”.
"Is the body still on the ground?" Ju An asked.
The pilot asked with a smile: "Do you want to take it back to the pasture? If you want, we will find a place nearby with few trees to stop, and you can go and tow it."
Ju An quickly waved his hands and said: "What do I want with that thing? Let's go back directly. The wolf king on the ground is just a meal for the wolves! I just think it's too easy for us to kill the wolf king this time."
Thomas smiled and said: "Then what do you want, use cowboys to surround you? You may not be able to find wolves in such heavy snow for ten days and a half, and you will be starving before you find them, let alone
You're talking about a horse."
