Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 89 Pinch Track (Second Update)

Now that Chen Xiuyu made sticky bean buns, Lu Lu didn't need to make too much fuss here.

After steaming Donnie Yen's steamed buns for a while, Lu Lu fried the dish of monkey legs and asked Chen Xiuqing and his sister to try it together.

Both of them had already eaten at home, but when they saw the steaming steamed buns made by Lu Lu, they each took one and ate it.

The steamed buns made with honey are also made of pure white flour. Just smelling the honey smell is sweet, and the mouth is even softer. It is a kind of enjoyment.

When Lu Lu was full, he boiled corn noodles for Yuan Baoniang and the four, sprinkled the noodles with salt and stirred them evenly to feed them, it was already daylight.

The three puppies were locked up in the cellar, and some wild meat was left for them.

This time out, I still can't take them with me and go deeper into the forest. The situation is unpredictable. The three puppies can't help, and they will only become a burden if they go.

Lu Lu had an ammunition belt tied around his waist, a big ax behind him, steamed buns and a knife in his hunting bag, picked up the shotgun, went out of the basement, locked the small door, watched Chen Xiuyu leave, and then called out. Chen Xiuqing set off towards the mountains.

Once the goal has been set, it cannot be distracted.

It's not like wandering around in the mountains on weekdays, doing whatever you see.

Yuan Bao followed closely beside Lu Lu, reminding him of the abnormalities around him from time to time. Seeing that Lu Lu kept walking, he didn't stop any longer.

Both of them knew the exact location of the red deer that fled yesterday when the Huilongtun people were rushing to battle.

They intentionally avoided the ambush, and soon found the footprints left by the red deer when they fled.

Although after the battle is over, the untouched organs are generally removed, but the possibility of omission is not ruled out, and some people may deliberately keep some organs in case they get another wild animal.

This kind of place has always been dangerous.

Under normal circumstances, the female leads the fawns to live in groups, while the adult male deer wander around. Yesterday they fled in panic, and after another night, they don’t know how far they wandered.

If you want to find it, you can only pinch and follow.

The so-called pinching is to follow the traces left by wild animals.

The large object weighing nearly [-] kilograms left a lot of traces on the ground, and it was not difficult to find, not to mention the ingots.

When Lu Lu squatted on the ground looking at the hoof prints left by the red deer, Yuan Bao also moved over to sniff them, and then led the way, following the scent left by the red deer. The two of them and the dog walked briskly in the mountains.

This red deer had just been frightened by people rushing to fight, and was already suspicious by nature, but this time he went out, he went a long way.

After passing several hills, the two saw a large number of hoofprints left by it on the riverside grassland and among the trees by a river in the mountains.

"It drank water and ate grass in this place!" Chen Xiuqing looked at the marks on the ground seriously.

"alright!"

Lu Lu nodded, his attention was more focused on Yuan Bao, watching it sniff along these traces, and finally looked up to the other side of the river, and yelled twice.

With the fragrant head of Yuanbao, it can easily distinguish the smell left by the red deer. Even across the river, it can still distinguish the direction from the smell.

"The red deer has crossed the river." Lu Lu looked at the other side and whispered.

The river in front of me is quite wide, more than 30 meters long, but for the red deer who are good at swimming, it is like playing.

"Go further inside, and you'll see Sanjian Mountain." Chen Xiuqing looked at the opposite mountain, which was much higher than other mountains in the distance: "Shall we go there?"

"I've come here, I'm sure I'll pass!" Lu Lu said with a smile, "Don't say you can't swim!"

"That can't be!"

Without further ado, Chen Xiuqing began to take off her clothes and trousers, put them into a hunting bag, put it on her head together with the gun, and went straight down the river.

Lu Lu saw that his body stiffened uncontrollably as soon as he entered the river, and he knew that the coldness of the river was definitely unbearable.

These rivers belong to the Tangwang River Basin, and the ice thawed in April. Even if it is already the middle of May, and it has been sunny for a while, there are still dark places in the mountains where ice can be seen.

Even if the crops are planted, they will grow, and they will often encounter snow and ice disasters, the coldness of which can be imagined.

Lu Lu didn't hesitate, he also took off his clothes, put on a hunting bag, put it on his head, and followed into the water.

For a moment, the body seemed to be poked by countless small needles. The feeling was really uncomfortable.

Lu Lu didn't dare to stay, the longer he stayed in the water, the more his body became uncontrollable.Gotta get across the river as fast as possible.

Four or five meters into the water, the river has reached the neck.

On the surface of the seemingly calm water, there is an undercurrent surging underneath, driving the body to drift down the river.

Luckily, Lu Lu knew how to tread water, so with the weight of about ten kilograms on his body, it was not difficult for him.

Yuan Bao, who entered the water under Lu Lu, also jumped into the river, and was very spiritually on the left of Lu Lu, swimming against Lu Lu, supporting and driving Lu Lu as much as possible.

With its help, Lu Lu was even more relaxed, and soon surpassed Chen Xiuqing who entered the water first, and reached the other side first.

"Qingzi, you have to work hard!" Lu Lu quickly put on his clothes regardless of the water droplets on his body, and smiled at Chen Xiuqing who was still struggling to tread water in the river.

It was approaching noon at this time, and the sun was just right. It would not take long for the water vapor to dry out.

"I..." Chen Xiuqing had just opened his mouth to speak, and let out a breath, his body sank, he quickly inhaled and shut his mouth, and then stabilized again.

Lu Lv was immediately amused by this anxious look.

After finally getting ashore, Chen Xiuqing said unconvinced: "If I have a dog as good as Yuan Bao to help me, I can come here soon."

"Then why don't you say, I brought a mirror axe, and the gun is heavier than your single barrel?" Lu Lu said with a curled lip.

"..."

Chen Xiuqing scratched her head and was speechless.

The things Lu Lu carried on his body were indeed much heavier than those carried on him.

In the water, with more weight on the body, it takes a lot of effort.

"Hurry up and put on your clothes, let your body warm up quickly, don't get cold!"

Lu Lu gave an explanation, and walked towards the direction where Yuan Bao barked just now.

Yuan Bao flicked the water droplets on his body a few times, and followed Lu Lu.

After walking down the river for a few meters, Lu Lu saw the footprints left by the red deer on the black mud accumulated by the river. In addition, he also saw the footprints of a person who followed the direction of the red deer up the mountain. up.

Lu Lu didn't expect that he didn't see traces of people's pursuit all the way, but saw the footprints of people's pursuit when he crossed the river.

If he saw it from the other side of the river, he would definitely not come here again.

But now that they have all come, he is a little unwilling: "Qingzi, someone is one step ahead of us!"

Lu Lu carefully looked at the footprints on the muddy ground, except for the footprints of a person, there were no redundant footprints, not even the footprints of a dog.

He couldn't help but secretly sighed: How courageous!

A person who dares to venture into such a deep mountain alone is either a newborn calf, or an absolute master, and the possibility of the latter is often greater.

Chen Xiuqing quickly put on her clothes, trotted over, looked at the footprints on the ground, and frowned: "Why do I feel like today..."

It is always taboo to say "Oh Huo", "run empty" and other discouraging or depressing words when rushing to fight a siege. When people who are fastidious hear such words, they will be very annoyed and think it is unlucky.

Therefore, Chen Xiuqing stopped immediately after speaking halfway through.

But Lu Lu already knew what he meant, because even he himself thought so.

He doesn't pay much attention to it, he thinks it's all vain things.

Seeing Chen Xiuqing looking at him with a questioning look, Lu Lu smiled and said: "I have followed so far, so I have to go and have a look, otherwise I will not be reconciled. Besides, this is not a bark fight, Like this kind of wandering prey, everyone has a share, each depends on his ability, so what if he follows up first, I don’t know who will win. I would like to see who is the master."

Lu Lu immediately raised his gun and led Yuan Bao to follow along the footprints.

Naturally, Chen Xiuqing didn't say much, and followed quickly.

"Among the hunters you've heard of, who has the guts to enter this deep mountain alone without a hunting dog?" Lu Lu asked as he walked.

Chen Xiuqing frowned and thought for a while: "It's hard to say. Several gunners in Huilongtun have this ability, and there are also in other villages. I really can't tell who it is."

Lu Lu didn't ask any more questions, but only quickened his pace again.

He had an intuition that the red deer should be in the Sanjian Mountain. They like to move in the high mountains. Seeing that there are many things that red deer can eat in this mountain.

After that, the two of them didn't say anything, they just followed the footprints while keeping an eye on their surroundings.

In less than half an hour, the two climbed over a short hill, and when they were half way down, Yuan Bao suddenly let out a bark.

It's not the sound of wild animals, it's the sound of people.

Yuan Bao usually makes a fierce snoring sound when he finds a prey, but when he finds a person, it just makes a "wang" sound.

This is a reminder to Lu Lu.

Often when Yuan Bao speaks, there are hundreds of meters away from the person, so there is no need to worry about the other party hearing it.

Lu Lu squatted down and patted Yuan Bao, he knew that he was not far from that "superior".

The two looked at each other and continued to follow.

Another ten minutes passed, and already down to the edge of the ravine, Yuan Bao made another sound, a fierce snoring sound.

Lu Lu stopped immediately: "It should be in the ravine ahead."

"What should we do?" Chen Xiuqing asked.

"At a time like this, maybe people are preparing to hunt. If we get together, it will be an obvious snatch."

Lu Lu shook his head with a wry smile. He didn't expect that the two of them came out early in the morning and tracked for dozens of miles, and they got such a result.

After thinking for a while, Lu Lu said: "Let's go around and take a look from a distance. If we are killed by the hunters in front, we will turn around and leave. If we don't succeed, we may still have a chance!"

In the end, I was a little reconciled.

"That's the only way!" Chen Xiuqing sighed.

People in the mountains also pay attention to first-come-first-served hunting. Knowing that the first-arriving people are already hunting, and intervening, that is to deliberately create conflicts. It is a trivial matter to start a fight. If you are angry, it is normal to shoot directly.

In this deep mountain, it's not like the surrounding villages, it's really killing people.

There's no need to risk your life for something like this.

Lu Lu comforted Yuan Bao, and walked up the hillside, wanting to go to a higher place to have a look.

The two of them walked towards the slope above while looking at the ravine below.

When they returned to the middle of the mountain again, the two heard strange calls from ahead.

I chose a vantage point to look, and saw from a distance in the valley below, next to a bush, a female red deer crawled on the ground and fell asleep, moving every step of the way.

Just in front of the female red deer, more than 20 meters away, the male red deer that escaped yesterday looked back motionlessly.

As if attracted by the call of the female red deer, the male red deer also called, turned around, took a few steps back tentatively, and then stood and watched again.

"Two red deer!"

Chen Xiuqing's expression became excited: "When the man hits one, the other will be scared away. Brother Lu, should we go forward and intercept it?"

Lu Lu was looking at the lying red deer carefully, and asked with a smile, "You are not surprised, why didn't you see the hunter?"

Chen Xiuqing was stunned for a moment, then looked down for a long time, but there was no trace of that person. He scratched his head in difficulty: "It's strange..."

Lu Lu pointed to the female red deer with a smile and said, "He is!"
