Chapter 212 Old Fox
The two shots just now were used as a bluff, just to prevent the lynx from getting out again. Now he is deliberately trying to scare the snake, so that the tiger cub in the cave will be so nervous that he will not dare to get out easily. In this way, Yue Feng had time to collect firewood and attack.
The heavy snow buried the broken branches on the ground quite deep, making it difficult for a person to quickly pick up some firewood. However, Yue Feng had rich experience in activities in the mountains. He swept around a few times and quickly found a firewood. Dead larch trees infected by fungus.
The girth of this larch tree is slightly thinner than the mouth of a rice bowl at home. It should not be a young tree for many years, but the top of the tree has been broken by the wind, and the broken tree head is placed on another tree. A fragile balance is maintained.
Yue Feng took out a small hand ax from the waist of his back and started chopping at the bottom of the dead tree.
Soon, the dead tree was knocked down. Yue Feng chopped the thin parts into sections and dragged it to the entrance of the cave.
Now that we have the main material for igniting the fire, the rest is simple. Just fold some fresh pine branches, and when the fire is on fire, throw them inside and they will start to smoke immediately. Although it is not as easy to use as Matsuakiko, But the effect is definitely enough.
Soon, the fire was lit. Yue Feng threw the green pine needles onto the fire. Sure enough, smoke came out immediately, and thick smoke billowed for a while.
Pushing the fire into the cave entrance, Yue Feng held the 56 and a half and retreated to a place seven or eight meters away, keeping an eye out for the lynx rushing out if it couldn't stand the smoke.
Yue Feng had a good idea. The fire was lit quickly and well. After adding fresh pine branches, the smoke was not small, but there was no response.
After more than ten minutes of work, the fire was almost finished, but the real owner was still not seen.
Just when Yue Feng was wondering whether to get some more firewood, shouts came from the mountain ridge above.
“Stop burning, there is smoke coming from behind!!”
Yue Feng raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound, and found two people wearing white smocks and carrying guns, dressed as hunters. Man, looking down from the ridge.
The distance was too far and Yue Feng could not see his face clearly, but the other party must be shouting at him, so Yue Feng immediately climbed up the ridge along the sunny slope.
When we were thirty or forty meters away, we heard a somewhat familiar greeting from the ridge.
"Xiao Feng? What a coincidence! So you are here!!"
Yue Feng took a closer look and reacted instantly.
Zhang Junhong and Zhou Yuanchao, aren’t they the captains of the hunting teams in their own villages?
Co-authored, today’s round is called Gathering of Heroes!
"Uncle Zhang, Brother Zhou! Did you fire the gun over the stone pond just now?" Yue Feng immediately took the initiative to say hello.
“Don’t mention it, I usually brag about how accurate my shooting is, but when it comes time to put it to use, my marksmanship is off the charts!
Xiao Zhou and I made a bet to beat the enemy. , I just saw a mountain lizard, so I shot each other, but neither of them hit it!" Zhang Junhong said with some self-deprecation.
"Why are you lighting a fire to smoke? The hole at the bottom is connected to the other end. When I was a child, my uncle and I came here. If you light a fire in front, there will be smoke in the back!" Zhou Yuanchao asked.
The words "tiger cub" came to Yue Feng's lips, and he swallowed them forcefully. If the other party lied, there is definitely no need for him to tell the truth.
"It just snowed. I came to the mountain to hunt around. I just saw something that looked like a mountain raccoon or something. It was quite big! I held the gun and fired a few shots, but the guy was very fast and I didn't hit him. , got into the hole among the rocks!" Yue Feng said half-truthfully.
"Oh! No wonder!"
Zhang Junhong and Zhou Yuanchao looked at each other, both of them tacitly understood and did not continue to talk.
In their eyes, Yue Feng is just a young hunter with inexperience and some luck. Whether the prey is lynx, mountain raccoon, or other wild beasts, Yue Feng himself is not sure, and the other two people certainly can't. Take the initiative to say that it is a lynx.
If you have more people, you will have one more competitor. They are all old foxes, and they know this very well.
"I'm going to take a look at the back first! I'll come up later!" Yue Feng said hello, then walked around half a circle and strolled towards the area behind the pile of rocks.
When they reached the bottom of the ditch, it turned out that Zhang Junhong and Zhou Yuanchao were telling the truth. There was also a hole with a diameter of at least forty or fifty centimeters, and the smoke from the front ignition came out of this hole.
Such a big hole is enough for a lynx to crawl out and escape. Yue Feng looked around for traces of snow foam and soon found the lynx's footprints and a small amount of blood.
If Yue Feng brings a dog with him now, if the three-legged lynx chases him, he might have another chance to catch and fire. But the purpose of coming today is to ambush, what about the eagle and the dog Yue Feng? Without any help, it would be a bit mysterious to chase the lynx alone.
Cats like lynx can jump, climb trees, and crawl through bushes and snowdrifts. They can be traced in slightly complicated places. Yue Feng doesn’t have a dog’s nose either. Relying on footprint tracking, the success rate is not optimistic.
Yue Feng would definitely be reluctant to give up such a valuable and rare thing. The best way now is to go home and shake the man, lead the dog, and then lead the dog to follow the blood trail to track down the lynx.
With Gouzi, guards and tracking guides, Yue Feng can ensure his absolute safety.
Zhou Yuanchao and Zhang Junhong must have come to ambush them after hearing the news. There is no need to think about this. Now they just need to pretend to be stupid and fool these two people away.
The two old foxes still don’t know that one of the lynx’s hind paws was broken off by Yue Feng’s bullet, so they definitely won’t think of going home and taking the dog to track down the lynx that escaped.
Normal logic would be to let the lynx think it is safe after a few days, and then use some tricks to ambush them. Thinking of this, Yue Feng quietly picked up the snow with his feet to cover up the traces of bloody snow foam, and then strolled up the mountain ridge again.
"Did he run away?" Zhou Yuanchao asked.
Possessed by the actor Yue Feng, he pretended to be frustrated and nodded: "Run away! I saw footprints while running along the back door of the cave!
Mo Dan, I wasted so much time. I spent a lot of time chopping wood to make a fire, but I didn’t catch anything!”
“Haha, that’s how it is when you go out hunting. If you’re lucky, you’ll hit whatever you want! If you have a bad idea, you’ll just be wandering around in the mountains all day long. !
So what, do you have any other plans? No, the three of us are together today. We have someone to take care of us when we wander around the mountain! Zhang Junhong asked while laughing.
Yue Feng shook his head decisively and said humbly: "Others don't know about me these days, don't you know?" I won’t take advantage of you! I'll go for a walk by myself! "
"Alright, if something happens, shoot two short and one long guns in the sky. If we are around and hear gunshots, we will definitely go there! ”
“Okay! Then you guys get busy first, my stuff is still down there, I need to pack it up and move it to another location! ”
“Okay! ”
...
Watching Yue Feng walk away on his skis, Zhou Yuanchao turned to Zhang Junhong and asked: "Old Zhang, do you think these two boys from the Yue family just happened to meet each other, or are they like us, who came here after getting the news? Come here to beat the tiger cub?”
Zhang Junhong curled his lips: “Of course, he must have come to beat the tiger cub! Didn’t you see there was a bearskin mat in the snow? >
But there must be something wrong with his intelligence. He is young and inexperienced. He burned paper and cried at the wrong grave.
We missed the shot at Jumping Stone Pond, and this tiger cub escaped here! When we came, we happened to have an encounter with the second boy of the Yue family. It turned out that he was not good at shooting, so he let the tiger cub get into the stone hole and run away!"
Zhang Junhong’s analysis is very reasonable. There are no such coincidences in the world. In such a large mountain forest, three hunters from the same village come to the same place to hunt with a clear conscience. This probability is higher than winning a 5 million lottery ticket for two yuan. Low.
Three waves of people are at odds with each other and each has his or her own position.
From the standpoints of Zhou and Zhang, as long as they knew what was going on, there was no need to tell Yue Feng more information.
"Shall we go down and take a look?" Zhou Yuanchao continued to ask.
Zhang Junhong shook his head: "I didn't hit it again, what's there to see? There are a few footprints against the sky!
If you want to go, you can go, I won’t go down. There is only Tiaoshi Pond around here. If you wait here for a few days and come here, you should still have a chance! Then it’s up to everyone to do their own thing! "
Zhou Yuanchao nodded: "Then I won't go down either. It's been freezing all morning, and my stomach is still cold. I might feel thin when I get home. Can we go down the mountain together? "
"Let's go! There’s no point in spending any more time today, so I’m going back! ! "The two of them muttered a few words, then put their guns on their backs and went down the mountain.
On the other side, after Yue Feng packed up his things, he also went down the mountain. With skis, he could go down the mountain faster than walking. Quite a few.
Yue Feng walked along the ridge, turned twice, and finally went to Chaiji Road and went straight down the mountain.
By the time I got home, it was only 8:40 in the morning.
Yue Feng didn't bother to have breakfast, so he hurriedly went to call Xiaowen, Xiaowu and his neighbor Xiao Tao.
If you know the target's lair and set up an ambush, you must not be able to sway the target. If there are more people, it will be easier to be exposed. It is better to act alone.
This has nothing to do with eating alone or not. Although Yue Feng went up the mountain to catch prey by himself, he would not pay dividends to a few of them, but the team development fund would definitely be handed over in accordance with the agreed ratio.
Now that the tiger cub has three legs, it makes sense for the man and the dog to track him.
The speed and explosive power of a three-legged lynx will definitely be greatly reduced. As long as the dog is a little smarter, even if there is a head-on conflict, it will not be instantly killed in one round like the fat tabby before.
Today is an off-duty day. Xiao Tao and the Zhang brothers are staying at home. When they heard Yue Feng going up the mountain to hunt, the three brothers immediately became excited. Soon they were fully armed and gathered at Yue Feng's house.
"Brother! Why didn't you tell me in advance that we were going to hunt in the mountains today? It would be great to go early in the morning. Now if we go up the mountain again, it will be almost noon when we reach the mountain!" Xiao Tao asked curiously.
Yue Feng picked up the warm water on the window sill and took a big gulp, and then said: "I got up and went up the mountain in the middle of the night. I went to ambush the tiger cub alone with a gun, but I missed the vital point and broke. A hind paw! That’s why I went down the mountain to call for help!”
“Tiger cub? Lynx?” Xiaowen became interested immediately after hearing this.
"Yes, it's quite big. It should be a big male lynx!
I was lying down last night when two brothers, Wang Xiaonian and Wang Junqiang, smashed the wall behind my house and sold it to me! I borrowed one Vice-ski, we set off to go up the mountain at around three o'clock in the morning!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go quickly! Since there are blood stains, the black wolf will definitely catch up and we'll beat up the tiger cub by then! Come down, it will be awesome!" Xiaowu was also eager to try it.
There is another chapter in the afternoon, if you haven’t voted yet, hurry up and make arrangements. I love you, okay
