The Rise of the Ranch King

Chapter 117 116. A small test of skills, jungle hunting

There were only five arrows, and Lin Feng didn't want to make a mistake.

The pastoral uncle personally taught him how to use this crossbow and first opened the protective lock to prevent it from being accidentally triggered.

Pulling the bow string requires considerable strength. If your arm strength is insufficient, you will not be able to use this powerful crossbow.

Surprisingly, Lin Feng, who seemed weak, could easily draw the bow string.

He was not very strong before, but he gained new strength in the small world. Now not only his arm strength is amazing, but his abdominal muscles are also gradually taking shape.

The uncle patiently guided: "Relax, concentrate on the arrow, imagine that you and the arrow are one, and you are about to fly out."

The target distance is 40 meters. For this crossbow, there is no need to raise the aim specially.

Lin Feng followed his uncle's instructions and pulled the trigger.

With a "whoosh" sound, the arrow flew out like a gust of wind and hit the wooden board steadily!

The uncle quickly stepped forward to check and shouted in surprise: "Great! 10 rings!"

It seems that Lin Feng is not only talented in firearms, but also excellent in cold weapons.

Someone offered $800 to buy the crossbow, but Lin Feng refused without hesitation.

To him, the joy and satisfaction this crossbow brought was far greater than the $800 it cost.

As for the remaining things in the warehouse, they were generously left to the homeless people, who were rummaging through boxes and boxes, trying on new clothes, and having a happy party.

Interestingly, the homeless man who did not pay attention to horse racing mistakenly thought that Lin Feng was called "Flame Joey" and shouted this name while writhing, which made Lin Feng feel both funny and helpless.

In the evening, Lin Feng returned home. The compound crossbow in his hand made him eager to try it.

However, the night is like a curtain with nowhere to cast, and no prey to be found.

Early the next morning, Lin Feng happily ran to Old David's house to show off his trophies from yesterday.

David asked in surprise: "BOSS, did you find this treasure from a warehouse auction?"

Lin Feng nodded in confirmation.

After learning that it only cost 220, David praised it repeatedly and said that the market price of this thing was nearly a thousand dollars, and if additional accessories were added, the price would be even higher.

Lin Feng vividly described yesterday's auction grand occasion, people's adoring gazes, and his own intoxication at the sound of "Flame Joey".

David pointed to the letters "stryker" on the crossbow and explained, "This is a sub-brand of Bowtech, an American small arms company, specializing in the manufacture of crossbows."

He changed the subject and asked, "Have you ever watched "The Walking Dead"? It's a TV series in which zombies are surrounded by humans and whipped."

Lin Feng shook his head.

"There is a cool character in there named Daryl, and he uses a modified version of this crossbow." The uncle added.

Lin Feng was eager to try and wanted to go hunting in the jungle instead of shooting wooden boards.

Coincidentally, David found traces of wild boar in the bushes east of the pasture yesterday.

Lin Feng planned to explore on horseback, just in time to let the bored Joey go out to have fun.

David was naturally happy to go along, as he was always enthusiastic about hunting. The uncle was driving a pickup truck, hoping to encounter a wild deer and hunt one back to satisfy his appetite.

Point is about to set off, this time with Wayne and David in tow.

Although the Dogo's injury has not healed, it is in high spirits and can help search for prey.

Lin Feng snapped his fingers and walked towards the stable with high spirits.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the spot where the fence had been broken.

David's craftsmanship is truly extraordinary, and the fence was repaired perfectly by him. Unless it was a bison, no other animal could even think of crossing the fence.

Speaking of bison, Lin Feng seemed to have caught a glimpse of one in a desert area on his way back last night.

Back then, at its peak, the number of bison in North America was as high as 50 to 60 million, spread all over the North American continent, and had lived in harmony with the Indians for thousands of years. However, once the Europeans arrived, the number of bison dropped sharply to just a few hundred in just a hundred years.

To Lin Feng, this approach of first killing them all and then protecting them and making them national animals seemed like a mockery of the Indians who were imprisoned in reservations.

The pasture fence is a piece of cake for Joey, who can even jump out effortlessly. Lin Feng began to search for traces of wild boars. Judging from the messy footprints, there were indeed animals in this area.

All clues pointed to the bushes not far away.

David pulled out his pistol and said, "BOSS, let me explore the path first."

As he spoke, he fired a few blank shots into the woods.

Suddenly, the jungle became chaotic, birds fluttered their wings and flew into the sky, and small animals fled in all directions.

Lin Feng moved his fingers, and Wayne and David rushed into the bushes like arrows!

Then there were waves of dogs barking.

Their task was to wait for the two dogs to drive out the prey. Lin Feng wanted to see the wild boar the most, because it was highly aggressive and killing it would give him a greater sense of accomplishment.

Of course, we don’t dare to take it lightly, and we always sense the status of Wayne and David through our consciousness.

Once they are injured or enter a battle, Lin Feng will immediately experience emotional fluctuations.

David in the cab was smoking leisurely and listening to radio music.

Soon, Lin Feng received feedback.

Wayne and David's emotions were rising at the same time, and they could still faintly hear their calls.

Lin Feng immediately sent a signal to the dogs, asking them to pretend to be defeated and retreat, while he stood ready outside to welcome the appearance of prey.

David also pulled out his Winchester rifle, just in case.

The first one to rush out was David, whose white skin stood out in the jungle.

David attracts attention and Wayne cuts off the back.

Following closely behind was indeed a big wild boar! I saw that it was covered in black fur, and the two fangs in front were shining coldly.

"BOSS!" David shouted.

Lin Feng held his breath and concentrated, kneeling on the horse and aiming at the running wild boar.

Shooting a living creature with a crossbow is more difficult than with a firearm because greater lead time is required.

He delayed shooting the arrow. The wild boar was very cunning and kept chasing Wayne and David.

Lin Feng adjusted his breathing and tried to keep his left hand holding the crossbow steady.

Joey, too, was perfectly still.

He was afraid of accidentally injuring friendly forces, so he kept waiting for the best opportunity.

Time passed by second by second, and finally, that fleeting opportunity came!

Lin Feng lightly pulled the trigger, and the arrow pierced the air like a bullet and shot straight towards the wild boar.

At the same time, the wild boar let out a shrill wail!

However, it did not fall to the ground immediately, but turned around and ran into the forest.

Lin Feng was not in a hurry to catch up. From what he saw in the scope and the howl of the wild boar, he judged that his arrow had hit the target.

The life of the wild boar is short, all you need to do is wait quietly.

Sure enough, not long after, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard in the forest.

Lin Feng walked over and took a look, only to see that the wild boar had fallen to the ground and expired.

The crossbow arrow penetrated its chest and was nailed to the tree trunk behind.

The arrow was covered with blood and puree from the wild boar's body, and was still dripping down.
