Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 35 Killing the warehouse and hunting the bear

Xu Ning observed from the rear that the black bear was not that big, weighing only over 400 kilograms.

But it is very stocky, with a wide head and big round ears. It looks like a dog, so it is called a bear or a hunchback.

However, because of his poor eyesight, people like to call him a blind man!
  The Black Blind Man does not have the habit of hibernating in areas with lower dimensions, but only has hibernating habits of varying degrees in areas with higher dimensions.

Before entering the warehouse for hibernation, the black blind man spends more than 20 hours every day looking for nutritious food. Once he eats well and has accumulated thick fat, he will start hibernating in the warehouse every October.

Hibernation is commonly known as squatting, and it lasts until March of the following year, which is about 3-5 months.

When looking for a place to hibernate, black blind men usually choose sunny slopes or caves deep in dense forests.

The one with the entrance close to the ground is called Dicang, and the one with the entrance facing the sky is called Tiancang.

And the hiding place of this black blind man is the big withered poplar tree facing the sky at the entrance of the cave!

Therefore, Xu Ning's act of hunting this bear is called killing Tiancang!

Hunters all like to kill Tiancang, because the black blind man squatting in Tiancang has to climb for a while before landing after the hunter calls the position. This is a good time to hunt bears!
  This is not the case with the underground warehouse. You must be careful because the hole in the underground warehouse is close to the ground. After the black blind man comes out of the warehouse, he can directly attack, which increases the risk for both young and old.

This black blind man weighing more than 400 pounds was in a very bad mood at the moment.

It has been squatting for less than 10 days after entering the warehouse. The wind and frost were very strong in the past few days, which made it unintentional to sleep.

I was just about to get a good night's sleep, when I was dreaming of being entangled with my beloved wife and sleeping soundly.

But I heard ‘Ding! Bang! Bang! ’ A thunderous sound.

It made it hurriedly retract its head into its chest, trying to block its ears so as not to hear the deafening sound.

Not long after it stopped, it thought that the thunder was over, so it closed its eyes and recalled the scene of lingering in the dream with its beloved wife, trying to connect with the dream.

Who would have thought that these gangsters would actually come to the mountain and start thundering in front of and behind the house.

And the blind man who wants to connect his dreams with his beloved wife to experience a happy and fulfilling life, how can he care about it?

The black blind man thought, if he couldn't afford to offend him, could he still hide from him? The thunder will disappear after a while, how can it be more important to be lingering with the beloved wife in the dream.

So it made no sound.

But the black blind man never expected that this gang of bad guys would actually come to the mountain and make loud noises in front of and behind his house!
  At this point, it endured it, and in line with the principle that one thing is worse than one thing less, it fell asleep and met its beloved wife as soon as possible, and it remained unmoved.

However, these bad guys started knocking on the tree, which made him more and more restless, but it still didn't move.

I thought that if I didn’t meet my beloved wife in my dream soon, I’m afraid my beloved wife would have to run away with the bear next to me!
  But then it heard a muffled sound of "clang" in its ears, and then it sighed, knowing in its heart that this disaster could not be avoided.

Just as it was about to get up, a thunderbolt fell on its head.

Immediately, a ding made it tremble.

Before it could recover, another 'bang' exploded on the top of its head, turning its originally handsome hairstyle into a chicken coop!

How can the blind man meet his beloved wife in his dream again? How can you not be angry?
  Then it let out an angry roar at the top of its lungs, and then climbed on all fours, trying to find out what was going on and settle the accounts with these bad guys!

At this moment, the black blind man grabbed the tree trunk with his four claws and dragged his thick and stocky body slowly downward.

It sniffed with its nose and found that the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, which made it almost choke.

Just as I was shivering, I heard a knocking sound on the right side.

It was the sound of Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu knocking on the tree. Li Fuqiang saw that the blind man had climbed out, and Xu Ning was hiding behind the tree about thirty meters away from the blind man. He was afraid that the blind man would run towards Xu Ning, so he knocked while shouted from the tree.

"Hey! Hey! Let's leave this silly comparison! Hey!"

When the black blind man heard someone scolding him, he was so angry that he shook his head, opened his mouth and let out a deafening roar.

Behind it, Xu Ning had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing that the blind man had climbed to the middle of the big dead poplar tree, he lifted the barreled shotgun and pointed the muzzle at the blind man's head. In fact, it is best to hit the bear's chest. However, the bear's chest and abdomen are close to the big dead tree, so it is impossible to find an angle to attack.

Xu Ning took a deep breath, hoping to knock this black blind man down with one shot.

Bang!
  A gunshot rang out in the forest.

Immediately, Xu Ning saw the black blind man fall directly from the big withered poplar tree, and landed on the ground with a muffled sound.

Then the black blind man fell to the ground motionless.

Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu at the bottom of the mountain cheered with joy after seeing it.

"Hit it?"

"Second brother, piss!"

"My brother is so awesome!"

"Ha ha…"

Just as the two were about to walk up the mountain, they heard Xu Ning shouting: "Don't move!"

Then the two of them froze on the spot, a little at a loss.

Xu Ning, who was on the mountain, saw that something was wrong. He used a No. 16 single-head bullet. It stands to reason that the bullet would definitely penetrate the black blind man's head when it entered from the side, but he did not see any blood on the ground at all.

So Xu Ning hurriedly opened the handle of the gun, took out the cartridge case from the chamber, and loaded another round.

At this moment, the black blind man on the ground moved. It stood up and roared in the direction of Xu Ning, and then rushed towards Xu Ning.

Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu at the bottom of the mountain trembled with fear when they saw this.

Seeing the blind man running towards Xu Ning, he instinctively ran towards the mountain.

"Brother! Hide quickly!"

"Second brother, run!"

Xu Ning was only less than 30 meters away from the black blind man, and the black blind man climbed extremely fast and had excellent endurance. How could Xu Ning outrun him?

Besides, he didn't want to run away, because he saw the face of this blind man.

One of its ears was drooped, and it was only connected to the head by a layer of skin. Perhaps it was caused by the missed bullet just now.

It stands to reason that the barrel-mounted shotgun in Xu Ning's hand has been adjusted. Yesterday, he shot two roe deer from a distance. How could such a low-level problem occur?
  Xu Ning thought about it and thought it was an angle problem. Yesterday he was standing in the valley when hunting the roe deer, but now he was standing on a slope, and he was on top of the bear and the bear was on the bottom. Therefore, after aiming the gun, it would habitually raise it upwards, so that's why Deviate upward.

Although Xu Ning has rich hunting experience, he has not hunted bears for so many years, so it is understandable that there will be some minor problems.

It was precisely because of his experience of hunting bears in his previous life that he could remain calm at this moment.

If it had been anyone else, he might have been so frightened that his legs were weak and he could not hold the shotgun steady.

Seeing the blind man rushing towards him, Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu's hearts were in their throats.

But Xu Ning stood there and calmly raised his gun, pointing the gun at the blind man's head.

This time he deliberately shifted downward by half a minute before pulling the trigger.

Bang!
  After firing the shot, Xu Ning didn't look at the blind man at all, but quickly turned around and ran away.

While running, he raised the handle of his gun and fired a single-headed bullet.

After closing the gun, he turned around and looked around.
