Catch the Mountain 1985

Chapter 17 The Mountain King Patrols the Mountain

Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming walked carefully to the middle of the open space, and found that black bear fur and hair of various colors were gathered together by the wind. After careful identification, the hair was clearly bunches of dog hair, which shows how tragic the battle was at that time.

At this time, Dahuang suddenly raised his head, sniffed the air, and kept barking towards the forest area in front of him. When Heizi saw Dahuang barking, he also started barking.

Zhang Peng immediately raised his gun, while Zhao Chunming held a big ax in his hand and was on guard. Not long after, a man slowly walked out from the front. It was Li Dafu whom he had seen before. His eyes were red and he saw Zhang Peng. Peng and Zhao Chunming were stunned for a moment, grinned slightly, and then slowly walked over.

Zhang Peng put down his guard when he saw him alone, comforted Dahuang and Heizi and went to greet him.

"Brother Li, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Peng walked closer and saw Li Dafu's condition, and asked with concern

"Oh, little brothers, it turns out it's you. I just came here to see my family." Li Dafu said sadly.

"Ah? What's going on? What's happening here?" Zhao Chunming asked pretending to be confused.

"To tell you the truth, we have failed. This time we suffered heavy losses. The brothers who were with me are also dead." At this point, Li Dafu couldn't help but shed tears.
"Ah?" Zhao Chunming was shocked at the side
Then Li Dafu told intermittently what had happened.

Zhang Peng understood the situation and Li Dafu's current mood. He owed his brother Li Dafu. He was the one who brought him out anyway, so he threw his life on the mountain.

There is a custom in the Northeast that if a mountain driver dies in an accident on the mountain, he will not be able to enter the village. Legend has it that this is the fate of God. The human soul cannot go back and will only keep wandering in the mountains. Luck If you don't do well, you will become the tiger's puppet and will never be reincarnated.

Li Dafu also owes those hounds who sacrificed their lives for their masters, because the mountain people treat hounds like family members. The hounds help the family find and capture the prey, while the hunter provides the final blow. This is a common practice among mountain people. , and at this time, the loyalty of the hound is reflected. Only when the hunter and the hound feel like a family, can the hound work hard. If you are just using it, then don’t think about it. Don’t expect to gain anything when you go up the mountain. After all, it Not stupid either.

And Li Dafu is even more of a dog gang. It takes a long time to get used to it and how much emotion you have to put in before a group of hounds are willing to die for you. This is all what Li Dafu has worked through little by little, and the hard work he has put in is incomprehensible to outsiders. Tao.

Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming stepped forward and patted Li Dafu on the shoulder, comforting him: "Brother Li, people can't be resurrected. Please express your condolences. Those sacrificial hounds also tried their best to fulfill their responsibilities. Your hard work has not been in vain. Wait. Let’s take it a little longer and recover slowly.”

"Oh... little brother, I understand this, but... okay, let's not talk about this anymore, what are you doing here?" Li Dafu wiped his tears with his sleeves and said to Zhang Peng.
"I don't want to hide it from you, brother. We came here to see if you have defeated us. If not, we wanted to take over at first," Zhang Peng said truthfully.
"Brother, there's nothing we can do about it. This is the situation now. Fortunately, you didn't wade into this muddy water," Li Dafu said.
"Well, yes, Brother Li, this is too dangerous." Seeing Zhao Chunming's expression, Zhang Peng said first.

"Okay, little brother, I'm going back first. We have met twice by chance. Even if we know each other, we are still from neighboring villages. When you have time to come to our Fuqiang Village, I will entertain you well." Li Dafu finished Mood, said slowly
"Okay, Brother Li, be careful when you go back. We still have to walk around the area," Zhang Peng said.

After Li Dafu said hello, he walked down the mountain. Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming looked at the bleak figure with unspeakable feelings in their hearts.

After watching Li Dafu walk away, Zhao Chunming couldn't help it anymore: "Second brother, they obviously robbed us. If we were here, how could such a thing happen? We are still talking like this." Zhao Chunming was a little angry. but.

Zhang Peng heard the words and said to Zhao Chunming seriously: "Chunming, second brother told you, luckily we didn't follow you. If you had followed us at that time, with your temper and saw Xiong Xiong being knocked down, would you have been the first to rush up? The consequence is that now I am the one watching you on the mountain."

Zhao Chunming lowered his head and thought carefully, then raised his head with fear on his face, and then said seriously to Zhang Peng: "Second brother, I was wrong, and I will definitely change it in the future." Zhang Peng was relieved to see Zhao Chunming's current appearance. He smiled and said: "Well, just admit your mistake, Chunming, but don't worry, my second brother will take you out of the mountain no matter what happens."

Zhao Chunming looked at Zhang Peng and smiled without saying anything, but said silently in his heart: Don't worry, second brother!

Afterwards, the two of them took Dahuang and Heizi and walked deep into the forest. There was a deep natural mountain valley in the middle of the two ridges. Zhang Peng walked to the ridge on one side and saw a short grave mound standing under a big red pine tree. There was no monument, so Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming walked over and bowed silently to the grave.

No matter what, the dead are the most important, and this is also a pitiful person

At this moment, Dahuang and Heizi suddenly barked at the ridge opposite the col, but the sound was sharp, their tails were sandwiched between their legs, and their two hind legs were still trembling, looking extremely frightened.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Peng immediately turned around, loaded the gun in two seconds, and raised his hand to aim at the opposite side. Zhao Chunming also reacted very quickly, holding the ax in front of him and looking towards the opposite side.

After waiting for a while, Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming found nothing, but the barking sounds of the two dogs became more and more shrill and miserable, as if there was something terrible ahead.

Zhang Peng knew that he was in trouble. This was someone eating raw meat. Judging from the behavior of Rhubarb and Heizi, it would not be wolves or mountain raccoons this time. Although Rhubarb and Heizi were a little timid about these things, they were not afraid of them. Yes, they are experienced in many battles. Zhang Tiejun had encountered a wolf before when he entered the mountain. Although the two dogs were defeated, they still managed to save Zhang Tiejun from the mountain. That time, Rhubarb was fine, but Heizi was seriously injured. The neck was almost bitten through.

The Zhang Peng I met this time was probably either a Siberian leopard or a Siberian tiger. Zhang Peng's palms were already wet. He quickly rubbed his palms on his clothes and continued to look at the opposite side with concentration.

Zhao Chunming also realized that something was wrong. He slowly moved to Zhang Peng and whispered: "Second brother, something is wrong. What happened? If it doesn't work, let's withdraw first."

Zhang Peng shook his head and continued to point his gun at the ridge and said: "We can't retreat. As long as we retreat now, we will be prey."

If you encounter someone eating raw meat, you must stay calm and never turn around and run away.Because the back of a human may arouse the desire for prey, when you encounter someone eating raw meat in the wild, remember not to turn around and run away. Humans cannot run with two legs but with four legs.

After a while, an animal slowly appeared on the ridge opposite. It had khaki fur and black markings all over its body. There was a word "王" on its forehead. Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming were stunned. They had never expected it. Luck would be like this, this is obviously a Siberian tiger.

The tiger opposite is well-proportioned and strong, with yellow and black stripes on its body. A distinct "king" character on its forehead proves its status.The long tail drags on the ground and sweeps majestically in the air from time to time.

Zhang Peng woke up first, smiled bitterly, and then fired three shots diagonally above the mountain col.

"Bang, bang, bang"

The tiger on the opposite side was also frightened and leaned down quickly. A tiger roar echoed in the mountain col. Zhao Chunming couldn't do anything else when he heard the tiger roar. He just followed it with a bluff roar.
