The whole mountain is my hunting ground

"Big Bear!" Li Baoyu rushed to Zhao Jun and took his arm.

Zhao Jun threw Li Baoyu's hand away, shook his shoulder, and the gun slipped from his shoulder, and was caught in Zhao Jun's hand.

Li Baoyu turned around, pointed in the direction he came from, and said, "It's over there."

"Did you see it?"

"I saw the paw prints." Li Baoyu gestured: "The boss's bear paw prints are much bigger than my shoe prints."

Li Baoyu wears size 45 shoes, which are bigger than the soles of his feet. So the big brown bear weighs 800 kilograms, nearly a thousand kilograms.

Moreover, it is better to say less!

"Let's go!" Zhao Jun started to slide away with a gun in one hand and an ash stick in the other.

"Okay." After hearing Zhao Jun say to leave, Li Baoyu immediately became energetic, but not far out, he realized something was wrong.

The direction Zhao Jun went was not the direction where he saw the brown bear's footprints, but the direction home.

"Brother." Li Baoyu quickly took a few steps forward, caught up with Zhao Jun and asked, "Aren't we going to fight that bear bully?"

"No fight." Zhao Jun said in a matter-of-fact tone: "If you can see traces at this time, it's the hunchback. Maybe the cat is gone. We don't have a dog. How dangerous is it to go there?"

"this……"

"What else are you doing?" Zhao Jun said with a smile: "Go home quickly and rest for the night. Tomorrow we will go to town and sell it to the big guy in the pocket."

"This is good." Li Baoyu suddenly beamed when he heard that big leather was going to be sold.

A thousand dollars, just thinking about it makes me happy.

The two of them walked over the mountains and ridges, still walking along the same road where they found the wild boars half a month ago. There were still hoof marks of wild boars on the road, but they could tell that these were left long ago and there were no traces of them. Discover new trails.

But more than a mile further on, we found the hillside that had been flattened by a herd of wild boars that day.

As we approached, we saw many wild boar footprints coming from the mountain road next to us. There were also some pig dung in these footprints.

Zhao Jun stopped and poked the ash stick in his hand, and found that the pig manure had completely frozen solid.

From this, it is impossible to judge how long the group of wild boars have passed, but looking at the traces of wild boar footprints, they are all left today.

"Baoyu." Zhao Jun called Li Baoyu.

Li Baoyu was bending down to look at the footprints on the ground when he heard Zhao Jun calling him. He turned around and saw Zhao Jun pointing towards the hillside.

Li Baoyu nodded and set off with Zhao Jun, sliding up the slope.

Along the way, the two of them saw footprints left by wild boars, and many of them were new.

They had just taken up their posts and before they could stand firm, they heard a loud noise.

boom!

On the mountain opposite, there seemed to be a flash of fire, and a roar echoed around.

I saw the hills opposite and snow and smoke billowing across the sky.

Bang! Bang! Bang...

Immediately afterwards, gunshots were heard!

The first few shots were still distinguishable, but after three shots, only the gunshots were heard in one continuous sound, mixed together.

The hill on the opposite side was like a sleeping dragon. It had woken up at this moment. It was like a dragon turning over, and the whole hill was tumbling and moving.

Zhao Jun knew that it was not the mountains that were moving, but countless wild boars running on the hills.

These wild boars ran down from the top of the mountain, ups and downs, all the way to the base of the mountain.

Pigs are chasing pigs one after another. If you look far away, you can't see the wild boar group clearly. It looks like the mountains are moving.

"Brother..." Li Baoyu held Zhao Jun with one hand and kept pointing to the opposite side with the other.

Zhao Jun held the gun but did not turn off the safety.

Too far!

I could only vaguely see pigs running, but I couldn't see the number or individuals clearly.

But he saw a figure that was much taller than those before and after him.

After about two minutes, the hills stopped turning, the gunshots also stopped, and the world returned to tranquility.

Li Baoyu stared blankly at the hill opposite him, which had returned to tranquility. One hand was still holding on to the sleeve of Zhao Jun's cotton-padded jacket.

Zhao Jun patted him helplessly. Li Baoyu came back to his senses, turned to look at Zhao Jun and said, "Brother, let's go over and take a look?"

"I'm not going." Zhao Jun shook his head and said, "They didn't fight."

"How did you know?"

Zhao Jun said: "I saw that big pig."

"When?"

"Just now."

"Why didn't I see it?"

Zhao Jun stopped talking nonsense with him, held the gun with one hand, held up the ash stick with the other, and said, "You'll find out when you catch up."

Saying that, Zhao Jun quickly slid down the mountain.

There is an intersection between the two mountains at the base of the mountain. Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu went east from here and saw that the snow on the slow slope was all covered by wild boars.

Countless wild boar hoof prints overlapped and it was impossible to tell which one was which.

On the snow, you can faintly see traces of bright red. This is because a wild boar has been injured.

The snow that had been trampled by wild boar herds was extremely smooth, and Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu could slide quickly on it on their skis.

But Zhao Jun suddenly held up the ash in his hand, stopped, and turned around to look at the mountain where someone was shooting just now.

Zhao Jun showed a smirk on his face, raised his gun in the air, opened the safety and fired a shot.

Bang!

On the high mountain in the distance, Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Wang Qiang, and Lin Xiangshun faintly heard the sound of gunfire, and they all looked in the direction where Zhao Jun fired.

"This is……"

"It's broken!" Zhao Youcai, who was smoking, slapped his thigh, stood up hurriedly, and said, "Don't let anyone take advantage of you!"

"Brother-in-law." Wang Qiang said, "Chasing?"

Zhao Youcai looked into the distance, paused for a full two seconds, then looked away, sighed and said: "What are you chasing after? Go back."

The hill that leads down the mountain is more than two miles away, and the shooting place is even further away. By the time they get there, it may be too late.

Everyone knows that it is right not to pursue, but they are not willing to do so.

Today, the four of them entered the mountain early in the morning. Lin Xiangshun drove the car and Zhao Youcai sat in the passenger seat holding a gun. As for Li Dayong and Wang Qiang, they could only squat in the unsheltered carriage at the back.

After the car entered the mountain, they kept coming to the north slope where Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu saw countless wild boar footprints that day. The four of them got out of the car and went straight to the bottom of the hillside to inspect.

They arrived five hours earlier than Zhao Jun. The footprints left by those wild boars were all new, and the pig manure scattered everywhere had not yet frozen hard.

These pigs just won’t go away.

"Brother! Are you on duty?" Li Dayong asked Zhao Youcai with his shotgun in hand.

Zhao Youcai did not answer, but turned his attention to Wang Qiang and asked him: "Qiangzi, what do you say?"

Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, and Lin Xiangshun are all good at fighting dog sieges, but Wang Qiang's ability to escape sieges depends on him.

Wang Qiang laughed and said, "How long will it take to catch up? Get in the car and go around to the back slope to have a look."

The four of them got back into the car. Lin Xiangshun started the car and drove around the south slope.

But not all roads in the mountains are open to traffic. When going around to the west, Lin Xiang stopped the car on the Chai Chai Road.

The four of them got out of the car and took a small circle to the south.

When they arrived at the south slope, the four of them didn't need to look at the south slope, because on the mountain to the south, the entire slope was covered with footprints left by wild boars.

This group of wild boars came down from the North Mountain and went up the South Mountain.

Wang Qiang said: "Get in the car and continue to block traffic!"

This time, no one else even objected.

The four of them got in the car again and drove around there, but after driving a certain distance, they still had to get out of the car and walk down the south slope of Nanshan Mountain.

When we got to the south, we found that there were no footprints left by wild boars, which meant that the group of wild boars were all on the southern mountain.

"Go up the mountain!" Zhao Youcai grabbed his gun and took the lead, striding up the hillside with several others following closely behind.

This mountain is higher than the one just now.

The snow on the mountain was knee deep, and Zhao Youcai could not walk more than 500 meters before he was overtaken by Li Dayong.

Li Dayong said: "Brother, I will open the way."

"Yes." Zhao Youcai responded without any objection.

Although Li Dayong is not as tall as his son Li Baoyu, he is still about 1.85 meters tall, which is rare these days.

He had long legs and walked in front step by step. The other three followed in his footsteps and walked forward with much less effort.

When they climbed halfway up the mountain, it was already noon. The four of them simply gathered a pile of firewood and took out the sticky bean buns that Zhao Youcai had steamed in the morning and grilled them.

They started eating almost at the same time as Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu, who were thirteen or four miles away.

The four of them had a simple lunch with pickles and strips. After the meal, they rested for ten minutes, waded through the snow to put out the fire, and then continued on their way to the top of the mountain.

When they were approaching the top of the mountain, Wang Qiang stopped Li Dayong. He came from the back of the team to the front and whispered: "I'm in front, follow slowly and gently."

The other three didn't speak, just nodded.

Wang Qiang cautiously walked ahead, and after walking another four or five hundred meters, Wang Qiang suddenly pushed his right hand back.

Zhao Youcai and others all stopped and bowed slightly. All four of them were wearing white coats, as if they were integrated with the ice and snow.

After about half a minute, Wang Qiang raised his hand, and he slowly lifted himself up.

Zhao Youcai and others held their breath and moved upward slowly.

About a hundred meters further up, Wang Qiang stopped again, but he waved to the three of them to go up.

The three of them continued to go up, came around Wang Qiang, and looked up carefully.

I saw about a hundred meters away, all wild boars!

Cannon eggs, old sows, yellow-haired pigs, and herds of wild boars are really endless as far as the eye can see.

When Zhao Youcai saw the herd of wild boars, he did not rush to find the legendary pig god, but looked to the left and right.

If you want to fight this battle, you must first ensure your own safety. Now the four of them are on the hillside. If a bundle of marle seeds is thrown out, the wild boars will be hairless, and they will panic and rush to their side. But it’s a bad dish.

There are trees on both sides.

There is a pecan tree seven or eight meters in front of the left; there is another pecan tree less than one meter in the rear left.

There are also walnut trees in three or four places on the right front and on Li Dayong's right.

This is a pecan grove.

This year's snow is not that heavy compared to previous years, so wild boars can scoop walnuts and acorns from the snow to eat.

Otherwise, if the snow is too heavy and walnuts, acorns, and hazelnuts cannot be harvested, they will have no choice but to eat grass.

This walnut forest is probably where these wild boars feed.

Zhao Youcai patted Lin Xiangshun and pointed to the hickory tree on the left rear. Lin Xiangshun didn't say anything or move, and just quietly walked there.

Zhao Youcai winked at Wang Qiang again, and Wang Qiang dived to the left. He uses a No. 16 barrel-mounted gun, which has the shortest range and must be in front.

Zhao Youcai took out a bundle of marlezi from his shoulder pocket and handed it to Li Dayong. Li Dayong took the marlezi and went straight to the right without Zhao Youcai saying anything.

As soon as Li Dayong left, the pecan tree on his right became empty. Zhao Youcai slowly moved to the tree and hid behind it.

Each of the four found a walnut tree and hid their bodies behind the tree.

Yes, they are looking for trees, not just to climb them.

Being so close, once a person climbs a tree, there must be a sound during the climb. How could there be so many wild boars not to notice it?

Therefore, the four of them looked for trees just to hide. The only way is to hide oneself and wait for the pigs to rush down, then lean against the tree to escape. If it doesn't work, it's not too late to climb a tree then.

At this time, because there were trees blocking the way, the four of them stood up straight and looked far into the distance to find the largest pig in the herd.

However, this herd of wild boars is too big.

There were so many wild boars that no one saw where the pig god was hiding, and no one knew whether it was sitting or lying down.

Li Dayong was in front of Zhao Youcai. He looked back at Zhao Youcai and saw Zhao Youcai nodding to him. Li Dayong held the marlezi in one hand and took out a matchbox in the other.

The moment Li Dayong struck the match, deep in the wild boar group, a big wild boar that was picking up the snow with its nose suddenly raised its head!

It has black pig hair all over its body, and there are hard bristles from top to bottom.

You know, other wild boars have fine soft hair on their sides and lower abdomen.

And it has bristles all over its body!

Other wild boars have sparsely long needle-like stiff guard hairs on their backs.

But its entire back, from top to bottom, is covered with dense guard hairs, which stand up to the sky one by one, as if there are thousands of steel needles standing on its back.

In it, one pig tooth was completely broken off, leaving only one. It was light yellow in color and already shaped like a crescent moon, just like the full-moon scimitar in Gu Long's painting.

Half of its left pig ear is missing, and the right front leg joint is bent backward irregularly.

This leg should have been folded and healed.

There were a few scars on its body. After the wounds healed, the wild boar hairs that grew there were different from those elsewhere, sparse and thicker.

There was a wound behind its left shoulder blade. The wound was like a hole, not deep.

But it’s not deep because there’s half a pig tooth stuck in it!

This should have been left in its body by those same species when it competed with other male wild boars for mating rights many years ago.

This is very common among wild boar populations.

But what's not common is that it's too big.

It stood up, and the three or four hundred pound wild boars around it looked like children compared to adults in front of it.

To say it looks like a hill would be an exaggeration, but it really looks like a rockery.

Just like Zhao Jun said, it's very effective.

It was so sensitive that when Li Dayong struck the match, it smelled the smell of sulfur.

Its nose twitched and twitched, making "beep" and "beep" sounds.

In an instant, wild boars filled the mountain. Whether they were walking or stopping, whether they were playing or feeding, they all stopped all movements and raised their heads in unison.
