Catch the Mountain 1985

Chapter 197 Fishing for mountain raccoons
When Zhao Chunming heard Zhang Peng's instructions, he obediently gathered his intestines into a small pile. Da Huang was watching beside him. When Zhang Peng saw this, he casually took out the heart and liver of a roe deer and fed it to Da Huang. Rhubarb also devoured it, and then continued to look at Zhang Peng and the others with its tail wagging. It was still relying on it, but Zhang Peng did not feed it.

In this way, the roe deer was quickly dealt with. Looking at the roe deer in front of them, Wang Xiaoli and Hou Damao were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear. After all, Zhang Peng had said before this time that the roe deer would not be handed over to the village head. I keep it for myself to eat on a daily basis. This much meat is enough to last until the Chinese New Year.

"Second brother, are you keeping these things as a trap?" Wang Xiaoli saw that they were almost done, so he came to Zhang Peng and asked for advice.

"Well, smart, that's the idea. No matter how cunning the mountain civet is, it can't help but put the delicacies in its mouth, and giving it roe deer meat is too wasteful. These slugs are just right and have a great taste. When Shanlizi saw it, he thought it was us who left him behind, so he wouldn't be too wary." Zhang Peng explained to Wang Xiaoli patiently.

"Oh, I understand. Second brother, why do you have such a long head? It works so well. Why didn't I think of that?" Wang Xiaoli's eyes lit up when he heard Zhang Peng's explanation. This method sounded really reliable.

"Haha, it's okay. You can do it in the future. We have to use our brains more when going up the mountain. We can't act blindly and be more comprehensive," Zhang Peng said with a smile.
Then Zhang Peng first looked around and saw the footprints of Shanlizi not far from here. This meant that Shanlizi had not gone far and was indeed targeting this group of roe deer. Zhang Peng was a little confused as to why he hadn't taken action against this group of roe deer yet.

But no matter what, this is good news. Since there is no prey, it means that the mountain civet is already hungry. When encountering this free food, its resistance will not be too strong, so it will be easy to take the bait.

"Chunming, you and Xiaoli will build a temporary hiding place on this hillside later. It doesn't have to be very good, but it must be hidden," Zhang Peng said to Zhao Chunming.

"Okay, second brother, take a look." After hearing this, Zhao Chunming also nodded and agreed.
Then he turned to Hou Damao and said: "Da Mao, we are not far from where Chunming and the others set up their hiding place. We will put the water over, and then remove all the snow that has been stained with the blood of the roe deer. This way, we can To maximize the flavor”

"Understood, second brother" Hou Damao also nodded to express his understanding.

"Okay, let's get started. Let's get it done as soon as possible. Let's go fishing for mountain civets at night." Zhang Peng said with a smile. Looking carefully, everyone's eyes were shining with excitement.

Following Zhang Peng's order, the two groups began to take action. Soon Zhang Peng and the others were ready. Their method was also very simple. They just found a place and put it in an open place. There should be no obstruction in the line of sight. place.

Zhao Chunming and the others were a little slow. After all, there were small bushes nearby and there were not many big tall trees, so it was more difficult to find branches. Fortunately, they found a sunken place and dug a hole to hide. It's just right, and the roe deer skin I brought over can be used as a cushion under the body.

They continued to work like this until the afternoon, when five roe deer were buried in the snow nearby. Zhang Peng and the others just took a bite, and then waited for the roe deer to take the bait.It's just that the waiting time for the weather will not be short. Zhang Peng and the others are keeping a close eye on them in shifts. Who knows if this mountain raccoon will be seduced by the smell in broad daylight.

The waiting time was long. During this period, traces of hares were also found nearby. Rhubarb also noticed it and groaned anxiously. Zhang Peng saw that there was no other movement nearby, so he let go of Rhubarb, but after a while Rhubarb began to wheeze. came back, but brought nothing back.

"You tiger thing, can you outrun a hare in this heavy snow shell?" Zhang Peng smiled and cursed at Rhubarb.

When Dahuang heard his master's laughter and scolding, he seemed to understand. He hummed and came closer to Zhang Peng, and kept nuzzling Zhang Peng with his nose.Upon seeing this, Zhang Peng comforted Dahuang and tied it up with a rope. Dahuang then lay down beside Zhang Peng aggrievedly. Zhao Chunming and the others also laughed when they saw Dahuang's posture.

"Second brother, do you think Shanlizi will take the bait tonight?" Zhao Chunming also turned around and asked.
"Well, let me calculate with my fingers, there will definitely be a big harvest tonight," Zhang Peng said with a smile.
"Uh, second brother, you can also calculate," Hou Damao said in surprise.
"Silly thing, didn't you see that the second brother was teasing us?" Zhao Chunming said to Hou Damao angrily.

"I know, don't you need to be praised at this time?" Hou Da Mao said with a mean smile.

"Okay, stop making trouble. We will stay here all night. We are lucky if we can defeat him. If we can't defeat him, we have no choice but to go back. We can collect the goods this time. The roe deer carcass is placed outside. It's not safe." Zhang Peng interrupted their conversation and then analyzed
Then everyone was shocked, and suddenly felt that what Zhang Peng said made sense. This roe deer corpse was like a cake in the wild. Everyone wanted to take a bite of it, and they were also the dessert next to the cake, so they couldn't get carried away.

We waited until midnight like this. The weather tonight was good. There were no clouds in the sky. This also made the moonlight shine very brightly. Zhang Peng and the others would carefully get up from time to time and move their bodies a little to let the blood flow. Otherwise, this would Although there was no wind, the temperature was still unbearable.

Inadvertently, Hou Damao was the first to notice a dark figure slowly walking down the hillside far away, so he quickly poked Zhang Peng with his hand and whispered: "Second brother, something is coming."

Zhang Peng also quickly looked into the distance after hearing this. There was indeed a black shadow moving slowly towards this side, but the speed was very slow, and the shape of his body felt a little strange.

Just like this, when the black shadow slowly approached, Zhang Peng also comforted Dahuang, not letting him startle the snake, because Dahuang was already a little impatient. Zhang Peng and the others discovered that this was indeed a mountain raccoon, and its hind legs still looked like It was some difficulty in moving that caused the mountain raccoon to jump on its hind legs.

This also made Zhang Peng finally understand why this group of roe deer had not been attacked before they attacked. This was because the mountain roe deer was injured, but he did not want to let go of this group of roe deer, so he followed this group of roe deer around and waited until After recovering from the injury, attack again.

Seeing such a situation, there is no need to be polite to Zhang Peng. Just like when a person sprains his or her feet when going up a mountain, it is also very dangerous for animals to be injured. This is not the case for Zhang Peng and the others.

"Everyone listen to my gunfire and run out together," Zhang Peng said in a low voice.
When Shanlizi lowered his head to smell the Shanlizi on the ground and wanted to take a big bite, Zhang Peng saw the opportunity and shot first. This shot was considered a fixed target, so it was relatively accurate, and he hit it with one shot. Shan Lizi spun around in circles.

Then Zhang Peng let go of Dahuang and ran down with everyone. When he ran to Shanlizi, Dahuang had already choked Shanlizi. In fact, it didn't go so smoothly, but Dahuang was faster and appeared. It's more sudden, and the mouth is more accurate.

Just like this, I got a mountain fox, which was much easier than the one I shot before.
