Chapter 279 The Leopard’s Trace Appears

Chapter 279 The Leopard’s Trace Appears

Chen Ling took Heiwa to look for her, and it happened that Wang Jusheng’s first cousin, Wang Jukun’s family, had a bitch that was ready for a mate.

It’s just that he is a bit old, and he has been raising her for seven or eight years. After seeing Heiwa, he actually looked down on her.

The bitch was quite experienced. She wagged her tail at Heiwa, grunted and pointed her butt at Heiwa to give way to him.

Hei Wa was indifferent and followed Chen Ling obediently, without squinting his eyes and being too polite.

The sticky energy in front of Xiaojin and the reckless energy that arose from excitement were completely gone.

This reaction left Chen Ling quite speechless, "I kindly brought you out to solve the problem, and you even picked it up."

However, he took him around the village , looked at the other bitches, Hei Wa slowly calmed down.

This guy is really stupid, he has a very high vision.

You are indeed enlightened.

What an extraordinary dog.

Chen Ling murmured in his heart, but the old man Wang Jukun next to him frowned and said: "Huh? Didn't you say that your dog is making trouble with his mouth? My dog's butt is already up, so why not "Go to the trough."

The local dialect says that cats and dogs are in estrus: "The cat walks into the pond and the dog picks up the trough."

If you want to say it is in estrus, no one will understand.

It might be possible to say that you are having sex, but in the conservative countryside, saying this seems explicit and cannot be said openly.

"Yes, we are making a lot of noise at home. Who knew that it would be time to go to the battlefield to become such a virtuous person? This dog has serious problems, just ignore it."

Chen Ling shook his head and said to the old man: "Brother Jukun "Whenever he comes back from the fields after studying, you can ask him to go to Brother Xian's house. Today we will have a drink together. Shui Wa and Yu Qiang are both here. If we have nothing to do, we can sit together before the Mid-Autumn Festival."

When he took Hei Wa out to look for the bitch, he also stopped by to inform the young gang that they had arrived.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell him when he comes back."

Wang Jukun nodded, and seeing that he was ready to leave, he stayed and said, "Fugui, please drink some more. Tea, sit down for a while. Now that you have grown up, you don’t come to my house as often as you did when you were a child..."

Chen Ling used to play with Chen Ze and Wang Xuecheng when they were young, and there were a few older ones who also had a good relationship.

The big baby takes care of the little baby.

But.

Later, these people barely even finished elementary school, so they dropped out of school.

Chen Ling went to high school. If he studied hard, he might have graduated from high school with a slightly higher diploma.

Speaking from the outside, he is already a half-college student.

So those who were studying and those who dropped out early gradually became less and less able to play together.

Later, as we grew up, our personalities also changed, and our relationship was not as good as it was when we were children.

In addition, Chen Ling and this group of young people in the village had conflicts when they were working outside, and they even stopped interacting with each other.

It has only been in the past two years that I have slowly gotten better again.

"Brother Jukun, I'm not going to sit down anymore. I have to clean up the food today. Let's come and play some other time."

After Chen Ling said this, Wang Jukun no longer wanted to stay and sent him out.

He also said that whenever the dog becomes noisy again, he will send it over as a companion. They are at home all day long.

Chen Ling also agreed wholeheartedly.

This old man is a generation younger than Wang Laishun, but he is about the same age as Wang Laishun, but they look like brothers, dark and thin, with big yellow teeth.

The old man sent Chen Ling to the door. By coincidence, his mother-in-law came back with a basket of peanuts on her back. She had gone to the peanut field to dig peanuts while the morning was cool.

"Oh, now that wealth is here, you don't come to visit me often. Please sit here for a while."

This old lady is Cui Laizi's sister, but she looks younger than Wang Jukun. , although there are fewer gray hairs on his head, his wrinkled face is not much better. But he is stronger and not hunched over, so he looks younger than the old man Wang Jukun.

Chen Ling stopped and said again.

“You kid, you came to my house every day to learn and play when you were a kid. When the team was busy, you and Shui Wazi came to secretly ride our big white horse here, and almost frightened the horse. . Do you remember?”

Chen Ling suddenly felt ashamed: "Remember, remember."

At that time, the animals in the brigade were much more expensive than people. Whenever the farm was busy, or the group was organized to do some work, it all relied on their efforts.

If the little kid is hurt by a big animal because of his naughty behavior, he can only blame himself.

Looking for someone to compensate? There are no doors.

After chatting for a while, the old lady also said: "You have grown up and have a family, so you don't come to play at home anymore."

Chen Ling said that he would often come to Xuecheng's house to play and sit around in the future, and then he let him go.

He left with Heiwa and returned to Wang Lixian's home.

Wang Jukun’s female dog is still reluctant to part with him. The dog is often tied up at home and has never come out to play with Heiwa.

Suddenly seeing the mighty and strong Hei Wa, I was immediately fascinated.

Unfortunately, Hei Wa looks down on this old and resentful woman.

……

Arrived at Wang Lixian’s house.

Chen Ze and Chen Yuqiang are already in the yard.

Hearing what happened, Chen Ze said: "Your dog is humane and much smarter than other dogs. Think about it, such a great guy. That guy is still so powerful after entering the mountains. Hunting wolves and hunting is just like playing. Such a powerful dog is the king of dogs and the general among dogs. How can the king of dogs find an old woman?"

"Don't say it's bad. If it were me, I wouldn’t do it either.”

"You can pull him down."

Chen Yuqiang became proud when he saw him talking to the end.

Immediately disgusted and said: "If it were you, it would be nice if you didn't see a bitch when the time comes."

Chen Ze suddenly became furious: "You are such a strong man. , I am just making an analogy, you just call me a dog, right?"

The two of them made a fuss in Wang Lixian's yard, making everyone laugh.

Aunt Wang pointed at the two of them and smiled: "You are young, you just talk a lot of weird things."

Sini'er also said: "That's right, every time Uncle Fugui and you come over, we can laugh. Laughed for a long time."

Aunt Wang and Sinier said this.

The two of them talked even more strangely, and also told some interesting stories about working in the factory.

And Chen Ling and Wang Lixian were killing pigs and removing their hair while listening to them talking about the train.

Soon Wang Jusheng and Wang Xuecheng arrived one after another, and the yard became more and more lively.

Chen Ling and Wang Lixian slaughtered the wild boar, added water to the pot and stewed it.

Liu Yuzhi took Da Nier and Sinier to make noodles and pancakes, and soon the fragrance wafted out of the yard.

When half of the white flour pancake is baked, the rest will not be baked with a pan.

Instead, put it into a pot of wild boar stew, spread a few white flour flatbreads on top of the meat in the pot, and cover the pot to simmer.

It's similar to pastry pancakes. When it's cooked, it will soak up enough soup, and it tastes quite delicious.

People who come to drink are not empty-handed. Some bring moon cakes, some bring eggs, and some bring peanuts, sweet potatoes, potatoes, radishes, and beans.

This is another vegetarian dish that can also be cut into the pork pot as a side dish.

Before noon, the dishes were all served, and Chen Ling took out his own Baogu wine and set it out.

Eating fragrant tender pork and hot pancakes, everyone chatted while eating, constantly changing cups and cups, their moods kept rising, and it was lively with those who were about to celebrate a happy event.

Although they didn’t drink too much in the end, everyone got drunk even if they were not drunk. Everyone in the group was drunk, and even Heiwa was full. The bones of the little wild boar and the organs that couldn’t be put into the pot were all eaten. Entered his stomach.

During the period, Wang Lixian and Chen Ling talked about the speculation that there might be another leopard on the mountain. As soon as everyone heard about the leopard, there was a heated discussion. The young people had never seen a live leopard. They were all ready to move. , I want to go up the mountain to find it.

Then I heard from Chen Ze that Wang Lixian had lost a big wild boar and had torn off the clip and ran away with it. He couldn't bear it anymore. He waved his arms excitedly and shouted that he wanted to go into the mountains to find it back. .

But of course, I can’t go to the mountain in such a drunken state.

Wang Lixian advised everyone not to be anxious and to sober up first before talking about anything else.

So we set up the table, drank tea and played cards in the yard, and some went home to sleep.

It wasn’t until three o’clock in the afternoon that everyone sobered up, then they picked up clips, steel forks and other things from various houses and headed up the mountain.

Chen Ling walked at the end with Hei Wa. He came out of the farm in the morning without the clips. He went back again in the afternoon and took out the clips and shotgun.

But this time I still brought Heiwa with me. There are two female guests at home, so we can’t let him cause trouble at home.

A group of people were walking on a dirt road in the field. The road was covered with lush weeds and large fields of corn on both sides. These corn stalks, which were as tall as one person, rustled when the wind blew. It grows on it and sways.

The corn silk on the head is almost dry, and the stalks are starting to turn yellow slightly.

This means that the harvest time is approaching and the corn cobs are too old to be eaten.

The further you go west, the closer you are to the foot of the mountain, the more peanuts, soybeans, sweet potatoes, and cotton become.

There are also mung beans, black beans, and peas planted along the road, but not many. They are only planted in slender rows on the soil ridges.

Walking up the mountain, Chen Ling thought that Heiwa was very energetic, so he devoted himself to using up its energy.

When he saw rabbits, mountain raccoons, etc. jumping around randomly in the fields, Hei Wa ran to chase them.

Even when you see the nests of four-legged snakes and gophers, let them go up and mess with them.

The result was that Chen Ling couldn't take down the prey he had caught before he reached the mountain.

Had no choice but to share it with everyone.

Some worthless ones are used as bait, and rabbits and the like can be taken home for meat.

Just like that, when they came to the mountain, Wang Lixian asked everyone to stop.

I discussed with Chen Ling to first find the animal path where wild boars often hang out, and set traps in the vicinity of the animal path.

Chen Ling had nothing to say, so he took out a wild boar tail and asked Hei Wa to show off. Hei Wa quickly approached Sao, and after receiving Chen Ling's signal, he went forward to lead the way.

It took less than half an hour to find seven or eight wild boar tracks in the forest.

When Wang Lixian saw this, he praised Hei Wa for being amazing. His ability was much better than last year when he entered the mountains.

Then he looked at Chen Ling and smiled and said, "No wonder people say they want a puppy from you. How can such a dog not make people jealous?"

Others also followed suit and praised him. .

At the end, Wang Jusheng said regretfully: "This dog is too smart, and ordinary female dogs can't look down on it. Otherwise, if you mate with more female dogs, you can have more litters of puppies." Come on."

Chen Ling nodded: "Yes, this dog is just like a baby at home. The more capable it is, the harder it is to control."

Then he kicked Heiwa: "I'm all praising you, do well."

Heiwa squatted next to him, sticking out his tongue, looking up at him, then narrowed his eyes happily, and for a while Wagging tail wildly.

Obviously he also likes to be praised.

Wang Lixian said: "Now that we have found the place, let's start laying the trap."

"Okay, Fugui and Brother Xian will show us first and tell us where to lay the trap. , more secure? ”

Seeing everyone looking at the two of them, Chen Ling said: "Then you divide into two groups. One group will follow Brother Xian to lower the trap, and the other group will follow me to lower the trap."

"That's okay, that's fine. Okay.”

After discussion, everyone takes action.

Chen Ze, Chen Yuqiang, and Wang Jusheng naturally followed Chen Ling, looking for suitable places to place their traps near the animal path they had just found.

I really don’t blame them for not making up their mind.

The key point is that the wild boar’s animal behavior has its own explanation.

Most people don’t have any eyesight or experience, so they really can’t find it.

Actually, it doesn’t matter whether it’s wild boars or other wild things.

They all do not take mountain roads.

That is, those paths in the mountains and forests that people often take when going into the mountains, they cannot be used.

They all have their own animal ways.

For example, wild boar.

Its animal path has two types: primary and secondary.

One is the main animal road. Local hunters call it the dung road.

It means that in the beginning, wild boar dung could be seen everywhere on the main animal paths that wild boars often walked.

This is the main animal path that wild boars often take.

These dung roads are usually on mountain passes, or gentle mountain cols, or halfway up.

The other is the sub-animal path, which is the animal path where wild boars come out looking for food.

These animal paths are messy, because after eating one place, the food is not enough, and you have to go to a new place to find food.

You have to change directions frequently, and the animal path you follow is not fixed.

The hunters call it Zalu.

As the name suggests, it is more messy and difficult to find, and the feces footprints are not as numerous as the feces roads.

On the dung road, the smell of wild boar is the strongest and the traces are the most obvious.

So, experienced people usually put clamps on the manure road and set traps, etc., which is easier to gain.

As for the mixed road, because the wild boar often changes directions, it may not be able to walk in the past few days.

Not on time.

So when you clamp up and down on miscellaneous roads, the harvest is minimal.

But there are many inexperienced people.

When I saw traces of wild boars and wild boar dung on the road, I mistakenly thought I had found the right place, and excitedly came over to place a trap.

In the end there is often no gain.

There are no good hunting dogs and experienced hunters with them.

Winter is better.

But if you make a mistake in this season, it is purely luck.

That's why Hei Wa was praised by everyone for being able to quickly find seven or eight beast paths.

It is because the contrast between the old and new trails left by the terrain and the wild boars is quite obvious.

The main animal path is also the dung path, and it is easy to find it.

The two groups of people gathered together in a lively manner and gathered together again.

At this time, someone said: "Uncle Lixian, didn't you lose the pig yesterday? Uncle Fugui's dog is so powerful, you can ask Uncle Fugui to find it for you again. If it's close, Let’s capture it. This time we have many people and we are armed with swords and guns. We are not afraid.” It's better to capture the wild boar and get it down the mountain.

If that doesn't work, it doesn't take much trouble to kill the pig on the spot, cut the meat, and carry a piece of meat on each person's back down the mountain.

Wang Lixian and Chen Ling discussed it and said it was okay.

So Chen Ling called Er Baldy over again. He found him once yesterday and remembered the smell. He asked him to lead Hei Wa in the sky. Everyone can just follow Hei Wa. This is simple and trouble-free.

As soon as an eagle crows, everyone follows Hei Wa and takes action again.

After walking for a while, Chen Ling suddenly laughed: "Good guy, this direction is towards Nanshan. This pig is so clever. After one night, he actually slipped to Nanshan. ”

“Going to Nanshan? Then this pig is indeed quite capable. It seems that he is really a big pig who can find a place to hide. ”

Wang Lixian said.

Among the three mountains on Wuyun Mountain, the North Mountain has the most wild animals, because the depths lead directly to the Daqin Mountains, and all kinds of wild animals will come directly.

Western Mountain used to be separated by Yerengou, but now it is a mountain lake, and there will be relatively fewer wild animals.

Only Nanshan, because it is separated by Daolao River Bend, usually even wild boars are rare on the mountain, and only small wild animals live on the mountain.

Perhaps there are sometimes wolves in Nanshan at night, but during the day, Nanshan is the safest.

The solitary pig that often roams around in the mountains, that is, the large stray boar, knows best where the safe areas are. When in danger, he will immediately hide in the place he thinks is safe.

“Well, if you dare to run so far with a clamp, at least one of the legs of this pig is missing.”

“The smell of blood left by such a pig is strong, not to mention black. It’s a baby. If you look for it with an ordinary hunting dog, it’s very easy to find it, but it’s not as fast as Hei Wa.”

Chen Ling concluded.

After he finished speaking, everyone continued walking on the mountain for about ten minutes.

Hei Wa, who was leading the way, stopped and barked "woof woof woof" at the distant sky.

“Oh, that’s fast! Did you find the pig?”

Everyone immediately cheered up and felt excited.

"Found it, but it's still far away. Heiwa won't scream if it's close."

Chen Ling glanced in the direction and said.

He understood that this was where the two bald men had arrived.

"Let's go, Nanshan is right in front of us, go around quietly, don't make a sound, just look at the gestures of me and Brother Xian."

Everyone immediately fell silent after hearing this and stopped talking loudly.

However, thinking that we were about to hunt a big boar, I couldn't help but feel nervous and excited.

But when they climbed up Nanshan Mountain with nervousness and excitement.

Something unexpected happened to them.

Within only a few steps, a flock of birds flew away in fright, and a group of monkeys squeaked in the trees and fled in panic to the northwest.

After that, there were squirrels in the trees, and mountain beavers in the grass swished past in front of them.

Looking at Heiwa again, he was already twitching his nose, looking up with sharp eyes, and his originally soft black hair was fluffy like a lion.

It whined and growled menacingly.

When Chen Ling saw Hei Wa's warning, he quickly picked up the shotgun and made a gesture, and everyone slowly backed away with doubts.

"What's wrong, Fugui?"

"This movement is not right, there is something on the mountain. Brother Xian, can you see anything?"

Wang Lixian was at this time Frowning his brows, he looked around, hoping to find some traces.

What did Chen Ling want to say when he heard the question.

But at this moment, Chen Ling's heart suddenly tightened, like a thorn in his back, and he raised the shotgun like a conditioned reflex and shot upward at an angle.

"Bang——" a gunshot sounded, and the branches and leaves on the tree more than ten meters away shook violently.

In an instant, Heiwa was already ready to go, shouting "woof, woof, woof," and rushed over.

Everyone took a closer look...

A ferocious and ferocious leopard with a severed tail was landing steadily in front of a big tree and turned to look at them.

"Leopard!"

Gunshots and exclamations rang out in the forest.
