Chapter 106: Armored Cannon Eggs
Wild boars, and a group of wild boars, there must be at least a dozen of them.
The leading wild boar was obviously at least two sizes larger than the other pigs, with its tusks turned outwards and curved, and it weighed four to five hundred kilograms by visual inspection.
Xiao Nian and Jun Qiang looked in the direction the second child pointed, and also became excited.
"Pigs! A large group of wild boars!! Brother Erhai, we are rich!"
"Don't say anything, just walk slowly behind me! Xiaonian, put the knife on the pier!! Junqiang, also take the leg plug, the wild boar will not climb the tree, if there is danger, just climb into the tree Climb up, do you understand?”
After all, the second child is a few years older than the two of them, and he also told the younger brother a few precautions before taking action.
The two brothers obeyed and followed Zhu Erhai as they slowly approached along the ridge.
When they got close to about 150 meters, the cannon egg that was humming and humming for food at the bottom of the valley suddenly stopped and then sniffed around. Get up.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Erhai and the other three were immediately frightened and fell to the ground.
Just now, I swore that the boar's nose was smart and that the idea was on the leeward side, but when it came to actual combat, these details had long been forgotten.
However, the Haolai brothers have a geographical advantage. After standing on the ridge and lying down, the wild boar will not easily detect danger through the smell.
Zhu Erhai did not dare to get up and move forward. He could only let the two brothers wait where they were. He held the gun and moved forward on his knees.
We are about fifty or sixty meters away, which is the limit of how close we can get. If we move forward, not only will we not be blocked, but we will also lose the advantage of having a higher view of the terrain.
Seeing that he could no longer get closer, Zhu Erhai opened the Hanyang-made magazine and took a look. Then he followed the key points taught by the instructor during militia shooting, aiming at three points and one line, and then the front sight hit the largest one. The head cannon egg pulled the trigger.
There was a dull gunshot, and the cannon-egg wild boar was seen lowering its head to the ground. Sparks suddenly appeared above the front shoulder and near the back.
Hmph! Chase! !
The wild boars immediately became confused and ran around.
The cannon egg that was hit only paused for half a second after being shot, and then rushed towards Zhu Erhai.
A large box weighing more than 400 kilograms ran on the snow shell. Although it was not earth-shaking, it was still quite impressive. Zhu Erhai's face turned pale, and he forcibly suppressed the urge to turn around and run away, and pulled the gun. Shuan retreated from his shell, and then fired another shot at the charging wild boar.
throat!
The advancing wild boar was shot in its front leg, staggered and almost fell, but quickly stabilized its body and continued to rush over.
Zhu Erhai pulled the bolt again and pulled the trigger.
But this time the sound of the bullet firing did not sound, the bullet jammed.
Without caring about ejecting the bullet and troubleshooting, Zhu Erhai smelled a strange smell of a mixture of blood and pine oil coming like a whirlwind, and then the whole world in his eyes began to turn upside down.
The injured cannon egg is something that even tigers and blind bears are not willing to mess with easily. Moreover, this cannon egg is a little different from other boars. There is a layer of it on its shoulders, back and other parts. Armor made of gravel and soil.
This is an armored cannon egg. The first shot fired sparks, and the bullet hit the pine oil-stained pebbles on the back. The warhead fragments flew and did not cause serious trauma at all.
“No, Brother Erhai was hit by a cannon’s egg! What should we do?”
Junqiang is one year younger after all, and he was shocked when he saw Erhai being shot twice in a row. Instead of knocking the wild boar down, the wild boar sent him flying around a few corners, and he suddenly panicked.
“Leave him alone and run!!”
Wang Xiaonian had an invasion knife in his hand, and Junqiang only had a calf insert, so he had no confidence to confront the wild boar head-on. So the languid Wang Xiaonian ran away decisively when things were not going well.
"What about the gun? What should I do with the gun?" Junqiang was a little hesitant for fear of losing the gun and getting beaten when he went home.
"The wild boar can only do a few somersaults on him, but the person will not die! We only have an assault knife in our hands, and bullets cannot penetrate it. Just now I saw sparks coming out of the wild boar's back! Wait a moment The wild boar is gone, let’s come back to save people!”
Other people of the same age would have been completely frightened at this moment, but Wang Xiaonian is quite quick-witted, and would ignore him and not be loyal if he encounters danger. Considering his shortcoming of dodging, his temporary reaction is indeed better than that of ordinary people.
Jun Qiang was completely panicked at this moment. Xiaonian said, so he followed suit. The two brothers crawled up the ridge from their hiding place, fearing that the wild boar would chase them, and they were not even worried. In another breath, I climbed to a pine tree that was slightly thicker than the mouth of the bowl.
The two brothers hugged the trunk and stayed in the tree for five minutes before they finally recovered.
"Brother Xiaonian, the second child will not be killed by a wild boar, right?"
At this moment, Junqiang no longer wants to hunt wild boars for a big sum of money, but thinks about what if he gets into a big business What should I do if I get home?
If the second child really has his strengths and weaknesses, then it won’t be a matter of getting slapped a few times when he goes home. He might be in trouble with the Zhu family.
"Probably not...! At most, he will make a few somersaults to vent his anger. As long as he doesn't struggle, the wild boar will find it boring and leave by himself!" Wang Xiaonian said with some lack of confidence.
"It's been five minutes, should we go down and take a look?"
"Wait a few more minutes, if there's no movement, go down and take a look!"
These few minutes have been extremely torturous, and Wang Xiaonian is also confused. Asked how it would end if there were no major problems, Wang Xiaonian's head hurt when he thought of the reputation of the Zhu family in the village.
"Brother Xiaonian, let's go down, the wild boar should be gone!"
"Get off!"
Soon the two brothers hugged the tree trunk and slipped down, then carefully looked back.
Far away, I saw Zhu Erhai lying motionless on the ground. The invulnerable cannon egg just now had disappeared.
"Brother Erhai, how are you? Are you okay?" Xiaonian hurriedly came forward and said hello twice.
"Ouch! My butt!" Zhu Erhai, who had been holding his breath and pretending to be dead when he heard the greeting, let out a long breath, covered his butt and groaned.
"Nothing's wrong!" Xiaonian and Junqiang looked at each other, both of them looking like they were surviving a disaster.
"You two are so mean. When you saw me being humped by a wild boar, you two turned around and ran away! Why don't you help me up!"
Zhu Erhai sounded a bit complaining. When he got up, he felt his buttocks. It was cold. I touched it with my hand and found that the buttocks of the cotton pants had been opened by the wild boar's tusks. The buttocks were exposed. Isn't it cool?
"This big cannon egg can't be killed with a gun. We only have two small knives in our hands. We can't move even if we don't run!" Jun Qiang said with some fear.
The three brothers checked Zhu Erhai. Fortunately, Zhu Erhai only had a shallow blood mark scratched on his buttocks by his fangs, and a hole in his cotton pants. The rest was intact. What a big injury. This is directly related to the life-saving trick Zhu Jianshe told his son.
Whether it is a wild boar or a bear, their eyesight is actually very poor. After they are attacked and provoked, the more they struggle, the more injured they will be.
For people like Zhu Erhai, the injuries on his body were only caused by the wild boar picking him up with his front kiss and tusks and falling heavily to the ground when he first came face to face with him. Then he stayed motionless and pretended to be dead.
In winter, people wear thick cotton clothes and trousers. The wild boar then arched a few more times, and the person who had pushed the sky arch turned over several times on the ground. Seeing that he was completely unresponsive, the big wild boar's pent-up anger also disappeared. Most of it disappeared.
If you are controlled by a bear at close range, the same principle applies. A creature like the blind bear will most likely sit down on the person, then bite the arm if the arm moves, and bite the leg if the leg moves.
On the contrary, if the bear remains motionless and pretends to be dead, the bear will lose the desire to attack, and may end up with less serious injuries than if he struggled desperately. Of course, the premise of this situation is that the bear is not hungry. The hungry blind bear is a cannibal, and it is not just as simple as killing him to vent his anger.
"Brother Er'ai, what should we do next? Are we still looking for pigs?"
Xiaonian saw that Er'ai was basically fine, so he thought about continuing to hunt pigs.
It’s not easy to come here, and the way Zhu Erhai lay down and shot a wild boar just now looks quite similar, but he was just unlucky and ran into an armored cannon egg.
Hearing this question, Zhu Erhai became very angry: "This crappy gun jammed at the critical moment and almost killed me, so I gave you a slap in the face!!"
Complaints were complaints, but Zhu Erhai took the gun from Jun Qiang's hand again.
I tried pulling the bolt again, and after several consecutive lags, the bullet that had been stuck when I was about to load it for firing was successfully ejected. I pulled the bolt again, and the next bullet was successfully loaded.
Hanyang made the problem that the gun is prone to jamming. It existed when the gun was new. This is a design flaw. It usually seems like nothing, but when it comes to a critical moment, the bullet jams and cannot be loaded, and naturally it cannot be fired. Safety The performance and stability are very poor.
"Did it get stuck just now? The fault has been eliminated!" Xiaonian saw that the fault was successfully eliminated, and new hope arose in his heart.
It is a matter of stealing a gun and walking several hours into the mountains on a mountain road. I would not be willing to go back empty-handed.
“The group of pigs must have disappeared just now. It’s too much to catch up and shoot! Otherwise, let’s go to the No. 14 Forest Farm and have a look?”
Zhu Erhai also knew that it was not easy to go up the mountain, so he complained, so he decided to go around again.
“We both listen to brother Erbai!”
“Then let’s go to Forest Farm No. 14!” The three brothers reached an agreement again and continued to move towards the new hunting ground.
It is also due to Zhu Erhai's good luck today that he encountered a group of large wild boars without any problems and saved his life. On the way to the No. 14 Forest Farm, he accidentally encountered an unplanned prey.
The three brothers here were walking slowly along the ridge, and suddenly they heard a struggle coming from the bushes not far away.
One large, two small, and three small deer-like animals ran quickly towards the distance from the bushes with light and nimble steps. A heart-shaped mass of white hair was raised on the buttocks. They walked and jumped, looking very cute. conspicuous.
The mythical beast of the Northeast, the silly roe deer!
"It's a roe deer! It's gone far away, should we chase it?" Wang Xiaonian asked anxiously.
Zhu Erhai shook his head: "This thing is said to fly on snow, and even hunting dogs can't catch it. Can we catch up with two legs?"
"Oh, what a pity! Fighting If we don’t have wild boar, we can just get a roe deer back. Even if we can’t sell it for money, wouldn’t it be great if we kill each person and divide the meat into ten or twenty kilograms?” Jun Qiang muttered with some regret.
"Who says you can't hit it? Look at me!!"
Zhu Erhai lowered his head and searched around for a long time. He quickly picked up a dead branch as thick as his wrist and tried it in his hand. He knocked four or five times on the tree trunk next to him.
“Brother Erhai, what are you doing?”
“Don’t say anything, find a place to hang out, wait a while, this silly roe deer will come back on its own!”
< br>After Zhu Erhai finished speaking, he threw down the stick, turned around and walked towards a big tree not far away.
Not to mention, silly roe deer, silly roe deer, I don’t know how this thing survived in the harsh mountains.
Zhu Erhai's operation may seem completely illogical to people who don't understand him, but it happens to be a reflection of his understanding of the silly roe deer's habits.
The three brothers huddled behind the tree and waited for more than ten minutes. Sure enough, the silly roe deer in front of them quickly ran away and the dog came back furtively.
Zhu Erhai leaned his gun against the tree trunk, aimed at the silly roe deer more than 20 meters away, and then fired decisively.
With a bang, the silly roe deer fell down.
"Hit!!" Junqiang was extremely excited. He had been on the mountain for so long, and he was still hunting a mountain animal.
“Let’s go over and have a look!” Zhu Erhai put the gun on his shoulder in high spirits and strode towards the fallen roe deer.
This is an adult female roe deer, not big in size, weighing about fifty pounds by visual inspection.
He was shot in the neck, leaving a bloody hole as big as a teacup. He died on the spot.
"Brother Erhai's shooting skills are awesome!! Amazing!!" Xiaonian instantly knelt down and licked him, giving Zhu Erhai the emotional value of being the captain.
"Use the invasion knife to drain the roe deer's blood and open its chest!" Zhu Erhai stood on the spot and commanded.
"Can't we wait until we get back before disemboweling him? The internal organs have been pulled out and they are bleeding and stinging. It will be difficult to carry him back!" Xiaonian had some different opinions when he heard that he was going to be disemboweled on the spot.
Zhu Erhai glanced at Xiaonian: "You know what the hell, the body of this just-killed prey is still hot. If we don't disembowel it now, with the heat of the body, it will soon be in the intestines and stomach."
When we drag the roe deer home, the meat won’t taste good if it smells bad!
The roe deer only weighs about fifty pounds for the three of us. Well, I carried it back too!”
This is a fact. Most mountain animals have this characteristic. Whether it is a wild boar or a roe deer, if you do not disembowel it after killing it and wait for a day to collect it, the quality of the meat will be greatly affected. The heat will be dissipated on the spot. On the contrary, the intestines and stomach can be easily preserved in water.
"Okay, then just listen to Brother Erbai!"
There's nothing to say about this gadget. Most children who grow up in mountain villages are born with a cut in their arteries and fall down. Come over and let the blood drain for a while. When the blood is almost dry, use the knife to make a cut in the chest, and then quickly open the entire abdominal cavity, and take out a whole bunch of internal organs, which are steaming under the ice and snow.
