Livestreaming the Hunt

"I'll follow you and take a look!"

Wang Kui signaled Mayor's friend not to worry, and after giving Oda Nagama a look, he stood up and followed him.

On the one hand, he is afraid that something will happen to Mayor. Of course, the probability is very small. The most important thing is that he wants to see Mayor's skills with his own eyes and experience the hunting skills of western American cowboys!

It was not only him who came up with this idea, but also the audience in the live broadcast room.

[It seems that this western cowboy is a bit fierce. He dares to catch rabbits with a knife! 】

[Why are western cowboys called cowboys instead of cavalry even though they clearly ride horses but not bulls? 】

[Because when you call me Ma Zai, you feel like a younger brother, which is too cowardly. When you call me Cowboy, you feel awesome! 】

…

Seeing the discussion about Mayor in the barrage, Wang Kui laughed softly: "Actually, the reason why the Western Cowboys are named is because their main business is cattle herding. At that time, the cattle in the western United States were not as docile as they are now. Their bloodline is similar, their temperament is rough, and they are extremely difficult to manage. With the completion of the Pacific Railway, the livestock industry in the west is booming. The problem farmers need to face is how to drive cattle to small towns for processing and selling."

"That's how the first cowboys came into being. Don't think it's easy. Do you still remember the scene when I hunted tens of thousands of goats on the Urad grassland in Inner Mongolia? The same goes for cowboys. Five or six people drove thousands of goats. An adult bull like a Spanish bullfight has to contend with harsh environments along the way, including poisonous snakes, strong winds, thunder and lightning storms, and even Indian bandits!”

"In order to face these difficulties, cowboys need to learn wilderness survival, roping, animal training, butchering, marksmanship, and horseback riding. Many of today's Western equestrian competitions are inherited bit by bit from the skills used by the original cowboys. It can be said that they are all adventurers. They have horses, cowboy hats, spirits, a revolver, a cigarette in their mouth, and hormones. These cowboy labels are also called synonymous with coolness, while female cowboys are called cows. Girl! After it spread to Australia, they had another name, called Wrangler!"

Lao Kui's explanation was very vivid. In just a few words, the cowboys born during the era of western development in the United States appeared in everyone's mind like a real scene.

[Why do I think Niu Niu sounds a bit like a curse? 】

[The man is called Cowboy and the woman is called Niu Niu, so is their son called Niu Zi (dog head)? 】

[I think cowboys are so cool when they show off their guns! 】

[Yes, I like to watch cowboys fighting guns in western movies. They are so fast at drawing guns! 】

…

While the audience was chatting about cowboys, Wang Kui had already walked into the deep forest and followed Mayor. The two of them were now at least thirty meters away from the campsite, and there was no firelight at all.

Fortunately, the weather was good today, and the sky was not blocked by clouds and fog. The moonlight and starlight shined through the shade of the trees on the surrounding plants and dead leaves, with a faint silvery glow, and I could still see the road clearly.

Mayor knew that Wang Kui had also followed, but he did not turn around to talk to him. He seemed to be concentrating on observing the marks on the ground.

It seems that something has been discovered.

Wang Kui noticed that Mayor suddenly grinned, squatted down, picked up something unknown with his hand, put it in front of his nose, and smelled it carefully.

He walked over and saw that it was small pellets of feces.

"It seems we are lucky, it belongs to the hare!"

Mayor whispered and handed over his hand.

Wang Kui took a look and saw that they were round and small granules, yellow-green, and could be easily crushed without any sticky feeling. These are the main characteristics of the feces of small herbivores such as hares, "It seems to be frightened!"

Because he smelled the smell of urine on the ground, coupled with the fresh feces, it was obvious that the hare was incontinent due to sudden fright.

"It's a pity that I didn't bring Mark here..."

When Mayor spoke, his eyes were always bright and he kept scanning the surroundings, like a wild beast that found its prey, extremely excited.

Wang Kui knew that the "Mark" in his mouth should be a dog.

When hunting hares, it is most convenient to have a hound to help. Otherwise, you need to hunt with long-range weapons, such as guns, crossbows, bows, and even slingshots. However, if there are no long-range weapons, then ambush and trap flow is the most efficient.

But Mayor obviously doesn't like to sit still and wait for death. "The feces are very wet, which means it has just left and must still be active nearby. Wang Kui, you stay and squat it here while I go explore its location!"

"good!"

Wang Kui nodded and immediately squatted under a tree next to the hare excrement to hide himself.

Mayor, on the other hand, pulled out his hunting knife and slowly moved forward.

Audiences don’t understand:

[What do you mean, does Mayor not want to play with Lao Kui? 】

[I guess it’s because there are too many people and there will be too much noise, right? 】

[Then don’t you still dislike Lao Kui’s skills? 】

…

Looking at the barrage, Wang Kui listened to the microphone and explained in a very light tone: "That's not the case. Mayor uses the traditional American 11-style hunting. One person squats and the other person is responsible for luring the prey out, which means tracking and cooperation. Ambush, luring the hunter and if he misses, he will drive the prey to the direction of his companions, so that he can carry out a second hunt. Facing a very flexible animal like a hare, the 11 hunting success rate is higher!"

So that's it.

It seems that this is "a layman watching the excitement, an expert watching the door". The audience mistakenly understood Mayor's arrangement as showing contempt for Lao Kui, but Lao Kui was able to read the other person's thoughts without asking. And I mean, this should be the exchange between top hunters!

At this time, Mayor was walking slowly ahead with his back hunched.

Zigzag move?

Wang Kui saw that his search route was not the conventional hunter's method of walking along a straight line and searching in a frontal fan shape, but walking back and forth in a zigzag pattern.

He thought carefully for a moment, and the orange master hunter's knowledge soon made him realize.

Move!

Cottontail hares in the United States run in a zigzag pattern. Searching this way makes it easier to detect footprints and animal traces. Moreover, the groping rhythm brought by the zigzag pattern is also a stop-and-go pattern. You need to know , Hare is a very timid animal. If there is the slightest disturbance, it will be frightened and hide. If it is too close, it will give up hiding and run away.

Mayor's method will make the hare nervous when walking in a straight line. When it reaches a high point, it will stop at the turning point, giving the hare the illusion of "I am safe", thus constantly tormenting the prey. psychology.

It seems.

Beast of the West really has something of its own!

Wang Kui had never thought of this method of searching for hares before. It seems that this ESCI North American Fishing King Competition was not in vain!

Some spectators watched Mayor wandering around in the trees like a blind man.

[Lao Kui, it’s so dark, can he see? 】

[Without light and hunting dogs, this does not mean that a blind cat encounters a dead mouse. It is purely based on deception! 】

[Can you find hares like this? 】

…

"able!"

Wang Kui was extremely sure, "Because Mayor is not looking at the shadow of the hare, but at the eyes of the hare. The hare is a very powerful concealer, but while concealing, he needs to keep his ears up and his eyes exposed at all times. Observe the movements of natural enemies.”

"You may not be able to see your ears at night, but your eyes will reflect light under the moonlight and stars. Compared with leaves and weeds, the shining eyes will be particularly conspicuous! Moreover, the location Mayor is looking for is also full of lush shrubbery. Clusters, this kind of location is the hare’s favorite place to stay after it is frightened, because the thick and dense place will make it feel safe.”

"The other place that hares like to stay is in a high position. This kind of place has a better view!"

Normally when hunting herbivores like hares, one must look for open areas, but now that the hares are frightened, they have to do the opposite. This is hunting experience!

And at this time.

rustle!

There's movement!

After Mayor heard the sound, he turned around quickly, but the sound immediately disappeared. He curved the corner of his mouth, and his right hand fell on the hunting knife at his waist intentionally or unintentionally. His two eyes were like two emeralds, like radar in the wild. , scanning every place.

"It's near the east! Mayor is locating it!"

Wang Kui's pupils narrowed and he stared in the direction of the sound just now.

But he didn't understand what Mayor was going to rely on to catch the hare. If he were to swoop in, it would be difficult to keep up with the hare's reaction. After all, this guy could reach speeds of more than 40 kilometers per hour. Another point was that he was easily injured. , swooping over, if a tree branch pricks the neck, eyes and other vulnerable parts, the gain outweighs the loss.

One minute later.

"Fu~fu~"

After raising the ground, Mayor began to whistle.

Why are you speaking out?

The audience was puzzled.

"It seems that Mayor has determined its location and is trying to scare it out with his voice!"

Wang Kui scanned every detail of Mayor's movements, knife!

His hand was leaning towards the knife.

rustle……

The surprising result is that the sound is not where Lao Kui looked before!

And behind Mayor!

That is!

In front of Wang Kui!

Front——! !

In an instant, Wang Kui and Mayor drew their swords almost at the same time. As the goalkeeper, Wang Kui had to ensure that the hare would not run away from him.

Because he is the ambush party.

It would be such a shame if the hare was lost from his hands!

But what no one expected was this.

Mayor actually seemed to know that the hare was behind him. He drew his sword and turned around, almost at the same time. Then he raised his arm back and there was a flash of silver light.

Whoosh!

A little cold light, "Chi!"

A scream came out!

"Wang Kui!"

"run!?"

Mayor reminded loudly, Wang Kui yelled out, straightened up, took a strong step, wiped the floor, held his hands, and held down a dark shadow!

"Chi! Chi!"

Inside Wang Kui's arms, the sharp screams of hares kept coming.

He opened his hands, and the audience saw a 40-centimeter brown rabbit being pinned to the ground by Lao Kui's hands, holding his feet with one hand and grabbing his ears with the other.

But someone noticed through the moonlight that there was a blood stain on the hare's side ribs, and blood was dripping out.

At this time, Mayor also came over and pulled out the hunting knife from the ground.

Damn it!

Was that wound caused by a throwing knife?

Isn’t this too awesome?

When Wang Kui saw this scene, he was not too surprised. A look of "I see" flashed in his eyes, "I understand why your gauntlets are bent forward and backward. It turns out that it is due to the mechanics of throwing!"

"That's right! Throwing knives is a family skill inherited from my grandfather. After my father passed this knife to me, I also learned this skill!"

Mayor came over smiling.

In fact, even if they don't practice throwing knives, most professional cowboys still have basic skills in roping and darts. If a cowboy doesn't know how to rope a cow, can he still be called a cowboy?

Under this kind of training, practice makes perfect, and cowboys are naturally good at throwing weapons.

"But what I'm more curious about is, how do you know the hare will appear behind you?"

This is what Wang Kui is really curious about. Although Mayor's flying knife is fast, under the conditions just now, if he hadn't known that the hare would appear behind him, he wouldn't have been able to react at such a speed!

"Hahaha, to be honest, I didn't expect it to be behind. You didn't even see it, could I?"

Mayor laughed loudly, "However, my grandfather once told me about his experience in hunting hares. He said that hares are very timid animals. When being chased, they will always deal with the enemy. If you never find out, It, why not look at your back, maybe it is always behind you!"

"I see!"

It’s based on the experience of an old hunter!

Wang Kui knew that this kind of experience was accumulated by a certain hunter for a long time, and could not be learned from a certain school or region. It was very valuable, "Thank you!"

"No, it's an honor for me to hunt with you!"

Mayor patted Wang Kui on the shoulder, "After all, it was you who caught it at the last moment!"

"Stop teasing me!"

Wang Kui was hunting in ambush. The hare didn't even know he was there, and he was injured by Mayor. If he was caught again in this state, he might as well retreat!

Chichi!

While he was talking to Mayor, the hare suddenly spurted out a stream of liquid from his lower body and splashed on Wang Kui, "Bah, bah, bah! It peed!"

[Hahaha, this rabbit is awesome! 】

[Rabbit: Eat my last bullet! 】

[I’m so happy, I’ve never seen Lao Kui suffer like this! Can this hare be kept? Nibble on one more leg of it later! 】

…

"Give it to me! I'll take care of it! Go and wash it in the river quickly. You can get rid of the urine smell before it's dry!"

Mayor held the hunting knife, took the hare from Wang Kui's hand, and cut its throat with one knife. Blood sprayed out from the wound like tap water.

Wang Kui patted the urine. Seeing that he couldn't get rid of it and it smelled bad, he could only sigh and said: "This is the only way. I'll go to the river first!"

"Go quickly, and when you come back, I'll let you try my craft, haha!"

Whether it was fishing this afternoon or catching hares together just now, Mayor knew that Wang Kui was no ordinary person, so naturally he was not worried about his safety.

The two separated and walked to the river.

Wang Kui took off his clothes that were splashed with rabbit urine and washed them repeatedly in the river. The bright moon reflected in the water, swaying back and forth like a piece of silver paper floating on it. There was no one around, and it was eerily quiet. , could only hear the sound of running water as he washed clothes.

Crash.

Crash.

But the next second, he suddenly turned back!
