Alaska Gold Rush

Lifting their guns, Chen Ruobai and Henderson began to stand ready, because some wolf howls kept coming from the distance, and they might be getting closer.

Wolves are medium-sized beasts in nature, and their world is actually quite large.If you just encounter coyotes, you may be able to fight them alone. Having a weapon in your hand will naturally make you more confident.

But it's different now. It's night. This is a big advantage for the wolves, which will give them more initiative at this time.

Moreover, wolves are social animals, and they have extremely strict hierarchies. If such a group goes out collectively, it will obviously be difficult to deal with.Facing an attack by wolves, you naturally need to be more prepared at this time, because anything can happen.

Chen Ruobai and Henderson naturally understand this truth, and they will never underestimate the wolves. Even if they have guns in their hands, they must be careful.

Henderson looked at the bonfire and said to Chen Ruobai, "Robert, add some firewood. I hope they will be afraid of these fires."

Chen Ruobai is good at what he does. Sometimes he prefers excitement and challenges.He also has certain hobbies for leisure and entertainment such as hunting and fishing, which he finds very interesting.

But this doesn't mean that Chen Ruobai likes to start an encounter under such circumstances. He doesn't want to be attacked by wolves at this time, which is completely adding to the chaos.

So if some troubles can be avoided, then naturally some troubles need to be solved, and some conflicts can be avoided, then avoid them as much as possible.Now is the time to work, not to hunt. Try to avoid wasting time with extra things as much as possible.

Add some firewood to make the fire more intense. It is natural for beasts to be afraid of fire.

Seeing Chen Ruobai adding firewood, Henderson said, "I'm worried that our work won't scare them. I'm just worried that they will be driven out of their territory. They are eager to find food, and they will be more determined for food. cruel."

Chen Ruobai was not surprised by this. He just smiled and said, "It seems that this may provide them with clearer information, but all this can also allow us to see more clearly."

There is still some self-confidence. The reason is that Chen Ruobai thinks he is brave and has hunted before.

And with a Remington 700 in his hand and a Beretta M92F in his waist, this firepower configuration is not bad.

Chen Ruobai's side was actually nothing. Henderson also quickly opened the safe at this time. One was an M4A1 rifle. It was fully automatic, not a civilian semi-automatic.The other is a Mossberg 500 shotgun, which is considered to be full of martial virtue.

These are not prohibited, these are also licensed, and these are all in the name of the company.

Henderson quickly assembled the gun, loaded it, and then turned on the bright flashlight. The attitudes of the two people were actually relatively consistent. If they could win without a fight at this time, it would obviously be a good thing. They are not opposed to this sort of thing.

This is not a lack of courage. If it were at other times, they really wouldn't mind a good hunt. If they encountered wolves at other times, they might be very happy and think it is very interesting. .

But it won't work at this moment. They don't want to cause trouble, and they don't want to waste extra time at this time.This is the fact, and this is what Chen Ruobai and Henderson are thinking about now.

Being able to scare away the wolves is naturally the best thing. If you can't scare away the wolves, then just have a fight.

But at that time, it's either you die or I die, there is no other choice.

It can be said that Chen Ruobai and Henderson were very cautious and cautious, but they seemed to have no other choice at this time.They could only observe their surroundings cautiously, and could only deal with the wolves that might come out of the darkness at any time at this time.

Passive defense is very frustrating, and this job is indeed highly stressful and energy-consuming.But there is no other way. If you rush into the forest, you will put yourself in a more dangerous situation.

Chen Ruobai and Henderson would not do this kind of thing. They are smart people and know how to deal with this kind of situation.

It is very necessary to stay focused and nervous. You should not take it lightly at this time. Even if there is only darkness in front of you, there seems to be no movement at all. It seems that there is only the rustling of the wind blowing through the woods. sound.

When you should be careful, you must be careful. There is nothing to say. Especially at this time, it is very necessary to stay focused and careful.

Chen Ruobai and Henderson carefully observed any disturbance in the darkness. They would probably react the most violently at this time. It is not surprising at all, they should do so.

Perhaps while Chen Ruobai and Henderson remained focused and careful, the wolves might also be coping at this time.

It may be that they are arranging the echelon of attack. The wolves do not attack the prey in a swarm, but in stages and in a targeted manner.

Suddenly, Henderson said, "They're losing patience, and we're going to take action."

Chen Ruobai smiled. Although it was necessary to raise their vigilance to the highest level at this time, at this stage, they had to be cautious and should not take it lightly at this time.

Suddenly a wolf appeared. It bared its teeth, and its sharp fangs were a bit chilling.

This is a gray wolf, tall and mighty, not a coyote that looks dirty and sloppy. This also makes Chen Ruobai and Henderson need to be more careful, because coyotes are often alone or in pairs. , but the wolf pack is different, it may be one or two, but it may also be a pack of more than a dozen wolves.

Before Chen Ruobai had time to react, the gray wolf bared its teeth and looked like it was about to attack at the next moment.But it was clear that it was too late to react.

Henderson fired decisively, and the gunshot broke the silence of the night. The gray wolf fell to the ground before he could make any move.

Chen Ruobai chuckled, thinking that this matter looked very interesting. It seemed that this encounter came suddenly, but it ended suddenly.

The fire, the sound of gunshots, and the death of their companions all naturally frightened the wolves. They now had no choice at all. They could only quickly escape from this terrifying place.

There was a sound of running in the forest, and these wolves seemed to know how to retreat in spite of difficulties, and they knew how to escape decisively to save their lives.Henderson raised his gun and proudly said to Chen Ruobai, "Look, I'm a professional and I know how to deal with this kind of situation."

Of course, Chen Ruobai would not deny this, but just smiled and said, "You should give me this opportunity. I haven't hunted today, which is also a regret of mine."

"There will be a chance next time, but not now." Henderson said with a smile, "Those guys are very cunning. They approached us quietly. They are likely to attack at any time."

This is the fact. Although Chen Ruobai felt that the gray wolf did not intend to attack immediately, he was just confronting and looking for some moments where he could attack. Maybe it was the moment when Chen Ruobai and the others showed their weaknesses or were timid.

But it was obvious that they had no chance. Chen Ruobai and the others were obviously stronger and more decisive, and would not leave any loopholes.

This is good. At least Chen Ruobai and Henderson feel that this kind of approach is in their interests. This is a fact.

Henderson continued at this time, "You can choose to go back to sleep, or you can stay vigilant with me. I don't know if they really escaped."

Chen Ruobai said without any hesitation, "I will definitely not be able to sleep well under such circumstances, so I choose to continue vigil at this time. You can rest during the day, and no one can feel safe enough at this time."

The wolves seemed to have escaped, but no one knew whether they would just make a false shot, or whether they would hide in the dark and wait for the moment of fatal blow.

So it's better to be careful, don't think about being lazy, and just continue to keep vigil. This is more important.

Everything seemed to be just a false alarm, and Chen Ruobai and Henderson didn't need to think about anything at all.They stayed in front of the campfire, chatting and taking naps, also to prevent the wolves from coming back.

This night was destined to be uneventful, and Chen Ruobai couldn't have a good rest either. They needed to continue to persevere.

But when daylight came, the wolves did not come back.

Chen Ruobai was a little disappointed, because it seemed that his vigilance this night was in vain. The wolves had chosen to retreat despite the difficulties. They simply did not have the courage to make a decisive move and had no intention of launching a desperate attack.

Looking at the corpse of the gray wolf not far away, Chen Ruobai yawned and said, "I'm going to sleep until noon. You should also have a good rest."

Saying this, Chen Ruobai got into the Hummer, sat on a chair and took a nap.It's not a good choice to force yourself to go to work.

Although some minor accidents occurred during the prospecting process, Chen Ruobai and Henderson were not too surprised by this, and both believed that such things were normal.

After all, we were prospecting in the wilderness and encountered some wild animals. It was a normal thing. There was nothing strange about it. This scene had not never happened before.

Now I just need to re-adjust my mood, take a brief rest, and then get back to work.The thing is that simple, and their series of work arrangements will not be disrupted by such a small accident.

I originally thought that after experiencing these small episodes, I could return to normal mode, and I felt that there was an opportunity to make things work smoothly.

It's just that they are obviously overthinking, and some of their bad premonitions continue, which can be regarded as a vivid illustration of how good fortune and misfortune never come alone.

Chen Ruobai and Henderson felt that the work did not look smooth. At least at this stage, some of the information they found was quite shocking, and everyone looked a little listless.

It is true that we have found ancient river channels, but the problem now is to search all the way along the river bed, and what we find are some relatively shallow areas. The river sand layer on the river bed is very shallow.

This is a big problem. It has been like this for five consecutive days. Calculating the distance, it is almost thirty kilometers in length. This makes people feel more pressure and inevitably leads to various worries. .

Maybe this place was really an ancient river before, but whether there is gold here is a matter that makes everyone unsure.

This week's work seems to be of little value for the time being, because no more valuable clues have been found, and because the current work does not seem to have more value.

Everyone really came here with full expectations and were ready to find enough clues and gold mines here.Of course, they were also prepared to fail and gain nothing.

Since you are a gold digger, you naturally know that prospecting is not that simple. If you are lucky, you may find gold immediately and realize your dream of getting rich overnight.But it is also possible that after working hard, you still get nothing.

This seems to be the case for Chen Ruobai and Henderson. This time when they went out for prospecting, some of their discoveries were indeed disappointing, and it was true that they could not make more discoveries.

In terms of harvest, it is actually a little bit. For example, finding the river valley area is considered to be some clues.Although there are not many clues here, there are still some discoveries.

It is a good thing to have clues and discoveries. Even if we cannot find more good things now, we can continue to follow up in the future.

There is something about unexpected discoveries, such as 'hunting'. Even if such a hunt was not their original intention, in any case, it can be regarded as some small gains.

It can be said that they were high-spirited when they came, but when they returned to the city, both of them were disgraced. They also looked extremely embarrassed, and they did look a little listless.

Go straight to the hotel, now you need to take a good rest and tidy up a little, instead of looking like an out-and-out homeless man, especially Chen Ruobai, a multi-millionaire, still doesn't want to look too sloppy.

As for some small blows at this stage, there is nothing to worry about. Prospecting requires enough patience and some luck.Even if you don't find it now, it doesn't matter.

Just keep up your efforts, and there will always be a time when things work! (End of chapter)
