Li Long came to the wolf head stage. The wolf that had been lassoed was already dead. Blood was smeared all over the floor, and the ice knots in the wolf's internal organs were stained red.
The alpha wolf was not completely dead yet, and was still twitching there. In the faint light of the sky, Li Long could vaguely see that this guy was still staring at him, and he would probably die in peace in the end.
It doesn't matter, the wolves are basically destroyed anyway, and they can no longer make any big splash.
The fox was whining, probably frightened. When Li Long looked at it, he felt that the fox was lying on the ground, wagging its tail, as if he was begging for mercy.
That pitiful expression - you can't see clearly, it's too dark, but it looks really pitiful, and Li Long smells shit, this guy must have shit out of fear.
He walked over and stepped on the fox's neck, but the fox didn't resist!
I was really frightened!
Li Long bent down and untied the thin wire from the fox's legs, lifted it by the neck and threw it far away into the snow, let's go, Lord Long, I Mercy, I won’t kill you!
The fox probably really didn’t expect that he would be let go. He rolled twice in the snow, got up and looked at Li Long, and found that Li Long had already gone to get the two wolves, and hurriedly walked in the snow. He jumped up and ran into the pine forest, and disappeared after a while.
There should be shadows in this life, right?
Li Long didn't dare to be careless. He held a gun in his right hand and dragged the first wolf to the wooden house with his left hand. Then he went to untie the other wolf's wire harness and dragged it back into the house.
Two wolves need to be dealt with, so don’t plan on sleeping well this night.
However, the hidden danger was eliminated, and Li Long was quite excited at the moment. He first lit the oil lamp, used a fire hook to turn on the fire, added coal to the stove, and then placed a pot on it. He filled the tank with water and began to deal with the alpha wolf.
The skin of the first wolf has several bullet holes, so it can only be considered as residual skin. But Li Long didn't care. He first used the handle of a knife to pry off the teeth of the first wolf - it must be said that this wolf was much larger than the other wolves, and the teeth were also much longer.
In Li Long’s opinion, the difference between wolf teeth and dog teeth is that the parts of wolf teeth inside the gums and outside the gums are almost one to one, while the parts inside the gums of dog teeth account for two-thirds. The cusp of the tooth that is exposed outside the gums accounts for one-third.
As for many people saying that wolf teeth have grooves and are not cracked, he doesn't really understand. Besides, he is only a semi-layman and needs to study hard.
He remembered that twenty years later, he visited the International Grand Bazaar, which had just been built and was still visited by locals, and saw a beautiful Russian girl selling wolf teeth. , some are beautifully packaged in boxes, and some are in bulk and put together in handfuls. The packaged ones cost ten yuan each, and the loose ones cost five yuan each - well, Li Long was sure these were dog teeth.
After prying off the wolf fangs, Li Long cut off the head of the alpha wolf and put it aside. Let's put this thing outside to make a wolf head stand tomorrow.
Although to be honest, it doesn't look very useful - it can't scare even foxes, but to Li Long, it still looks pretty good, and he regards it as a display of his own merits.
The next step is to peel off the skin, disembowel the bones and remove the stone. Skinning it and then disemboweling it can stop the blood from flowing freely in the house, but the wolf has a gunshot wound, and there is still blood flowing out from the wound.
Li Long didn't feel anything was wrong. He would just clean it up tomorrow morning. Now I have to go out to peel the skin. The temperature outside is already nearly minus 30 degrees. If I go out for only half an hour, I will be completely frozen.
The fire was blazing, and the light of the oil lamp was flickering. It was not very bright, but Li Long had good eyesight and could see clearly without cutting his stomach and intestines.
It was more difficult to skin the wolf than during the day. After all, there was insufficient light, and it was easy to scratch the meat when pulling between the skin and the meat. Li Long tried his best to avoid scratching the wolf skin.
It was already a remnant of the skin, but Li Long felt that he should cherish it some. He planned to keep the skin of the first wolf as a souvenir. After all, this is the leader of a pack of wolves. He has been fighting with him for two or three days, so he is considered a good opponent.
After the wolf was cleaned up, Li Long took its meat to the small room next door, wiped the blood on his hands with snow outside, returned to the big room, and sat on the kang to rest.
The room was full of the smell of blood, and there was also an unpleasant stench. Li Long simply opened the door to let in some fresh air from outside. Although the cold air also came in, opening the door made him sober up a lot.
After resting for a while, Li Long closed the door and continued to deal with the other wolf.
This wolf is much rougher to handle. The peeling speed was so fast that two holes were peeled out - holes other than the bullet holes. The wolf's fang is nearly one centimeter shorter than the wolf's fang, and the biceps are not much smaller.
After Li Long put the wolf teeth and the stone into the small bag, he rubbed the wolf skin with salt and put it aside. After he came down the mountain, he sent it to the buying station to sell as much as he could.
The internal organs are still only the heart, liver, kidneys, and the stomach and intestines are thrown out and placed next to the wolf's head table. A bucket of water is poured on it. It is estimated that no animals will dare to do so tonight. Come over here?
Li Long washed the blood on his hands at the spring, carried another bucket of water back to the wooden house, and began to wipe the blood on the floor with a rag.
After it was clean, he used a broom to sweep away the ashes. Some of the water in the pot was used to wash the internal organs. Now Li Long took down the remaining half pot of water and pressed it into the stove. After shoveling the coal foam and suppressing the fire, he placed the two wolf heads in the small room, then returned to the big room, closed the door, blew out the oil lamp, lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep.
I was tired for most of the night, and I didn’t dream at all when I fell asleep. When I woke up, the plastic paper on the window was shining with sunlight, and the sun had already risen very high.
Li Long rubbed his face and felt that the back pain he had when he went to bed last night had disappeared. The only feeling now was that he was hungry.
The fire hasn't gone out yet, but it's still a little cold in the cabin. After all, the thermal insulation cannot be as good as that of houses with thermal insulation layers in later generations. He got up, put on his coat, and opened the door. The dazzling sunlight made Li Long squint his eyes, and it took him a while to adjust.
Looking at the watch on his wrist, it is now past eleven o'clock. He must have slept for seven or eight hours. Li Long looked over... Huh?
The wolf head is still there at the wolf head stage, but a lot of the wolf intestines and stomachs that I piled there last night are missing!
Li Long hurriedly turned around and went to the house to get the gun, then ran over and stopped five or six meters away from the wolf head platform.
It wasn’t just the intestines and stomach that were missing, even a small piece of the wolf’s head on the wolf’s head platform was chewed off - probably because it was too cold, so the guy who finally moved his mouth gave up.
What is this?
The reason why Li Long stopped so far was to observe the paw prints around him.
Besides Li Long’s footprints, the five plum blossom prints are the most numerous around the wolf head platform. There are several large and small ones, including the two wolves, the fox, and one - smaller than the wolf. , larger than the fox's.
What is this? Has your cabin been attracting prey lately?
Li Long looked carefully at the paw prints on the snow and couldn't guess them. He was not an experienced hunter and could not analyze the species from the paw prints.
It can only be seen that this guy not only ate a lot of internal organs here - there were uneaten things leaking out of his stomach nearby, and then he also dragged some of his intestines away. Is this going to be used as food storage or for the cubs to eat?
Li Long could see the traces of being dragged along the way. He did not chase after him immediately, but turned back to the wooden house and started to get himself food.
With something on his mind, Li Long just baked a steamed bun under the stove, and then took out two pieces of red tofu and put them on a plate. The water on the stove was boiling. Li Long searched in the small room but couldn't find any eggs. He originally wanted to make some egg tea. Think about it. I'll deal with one today and go see what it is first. He took away the wolf's entrails.
It shouldn't be that stupid fox - that guy probably doesn't dare to come over.
After Li Long waited for the steamed buns to be heated, he first peeled off the brown shell on the outside and ate it, then dipped the inside into red tofu and ate it in a hurry, drank a few more water, and put it in the stove Then he pressed the lump of coal, then put his backpack on his back, carried his gun and put on his fur hat and went out.
The thing drags the intestines forward, and sometimes there are things flowing out of the intestines where the traces are dragged - although it is frozen hard, it has also become brittle, and this thing should be eaten and bitten first. , so there will be debris.
It is convenient for Li Long to chase.
This thing can run quite well. Li Long chased for more than two kilometers until he reached the pine forest. The snow was thin here, so the dragging marks were shallow, and Li Long walked even slower.
The ancients said that you should not enter the woods. They said that there were often robbers and the like in the ancient woods. Of course, they also meant that there were dangerous animals such as big insects in the woods.
There were also tigers in the Tianshan Mountains in ancient times. It is said that they were wiped out in the 1920s. At that time, XJ tigers, which were discovered and recorded in large numbers by foreign cultural relic robbers, were mainly active in the Tarim Basin in southern Xinjiang. Of course, the main reason was that these cultural relic traffickers shamelessly recorded their excavation of a large number of ancient ruins such as Loulan Ancient City, and also recorded the excavation of a large number of ancient relics in southern Xinjiang at that time. human geography and biological situation.
Li Long naturally knew that the person who had taken away the intestines could not be a tiger, but any kind of carnivore in the forest should not be underestimated. Maybe if he encounters a cruel one, he can leave a person half disabled.
Through this sparse pine forest, and then through a bush, Li Long saw a pile of rocks. The paw print ends here. No animals could be seen among the rocks, or Li Long couldn't see where the guy was hiding.
He held the gun and looked at the pile of rocks with vigilance. The snow in the gaps between the stones has been trampled firmly, indicating that animals often appear here. The stones are high and low, and some are quite sharp. Li Long guessed that there should be caves inside where he could hide.
He walked a few steps in with his gun in hand. It was difficult to get down here among the rocks. Just when he raised his foot to avoid a stone, something as big as a local dog suddenly jumped out from beside him. , this thing rushed five or six meters to the right front and bared its teeth at Li Long!
Lynx!
Li Long looked at the animal with golden fur and distinctive ears. He was surprised and delighted, and then he raised his gun and started shooting!
The lynx seemed to know the power of the gun. When Li Long raised his hand to raise the gun, he turned around and jumped off the stone and ran into the crevice. Li Long missed the shot with one shot. He just looked at it. The golden tail shook in the crevices of the rocks, and then disappeared!
How could Li Long let the thing in front of him run away? He hurriedly held the gun and chased forward. However, the pile of stones in front of him was even more difficult to walk. It was difficult to find a place to put his feet, and the stones were all There are very sharp corners and it is impossible to stand on them, which puts Li Long in a dilemma.
He finally reached the crevice where the lynx had just escaped, but found that he saw nothing at all.
It has long since disappeared.
Looking at this pile of rocks with a radius of five or six hundred meters, Li Long was in trouble. To pursue or not to pursue?
Now that he is here, Li Long bites the bullet and chases after him. He held the gun more carefully. Xia Tian was scratched so big on his arm by this guy's claw. He thought it was better to be careful.
It’s just that it’s really hard to find in this pile of rocks! (End of this chapter)
