Chapter 254: There Can't Really Be Magic, Is There?
What Wang Kui didn't expect was.
Last night, he just hunted three black bears and was promoted to the first place in the number of black bears hunted, and after a night, he became second, and it was not Ito Ryoichi who hunted four before, but a new name: Yamabe Youwei.
He thought about it carefully, it seemed that it was an inconspicuous uncle who had only arrived since the appearance of the Japanese imperial crown prince and Oda Yongzhen, with a white beard and not a burly figure, from the beginning to the present, he only killed two black bears, but he didn't expect it to suddenly become 7!
Killed four in one night?
This efficiency is too rebellious!
After all, the black bears have been hiding in advance, and the audience has also seen Lao Kui prepare for an afternoon in order to set up traps!
There are still such strong hunters in Japan?
Subsequently.
A silver-gray Suzuki off-road vehicle drove over, and it was a worker from the nearby Kamikawa branch office, who carried the red armor hunter onto the car on a stretcher.
[Your teammate Miyamoto Musashi has quit the game!]
[Next time I come to hunt, don't wear so sassy anymore, I'm red, I'm a bear and I like to arch you!]
[Actually, I should thank this old brother, if he hadn't sacrificed himself to attract the black bear, Lao Kui wouldn't have killed another one!]
......
After all the staff left, Wang Kui returned to the corpse of the female black bear, and after uploading the black bear information with the locator, he began to process and peel it.
Didn't think of it.
After Wang Kui counted this one, he once again ranked first in the prey rankings.
Now the number of bears he and the right guard on the side of the mountain are both 7, and the reason why he can rank ahead of the latter is because the number of male bears he hunts accounts for a large proportion and is heavy.
On the other hand, the right guard on the mountain side, except for one black bear that was hunted at the beginning, are all female bears.
In fact, if it weren't for the purpose of the Japanese government's black bear hunt, which was to control the population, Wang Kui would have been very reluctant to hunt female animals.
Take black bears, for example.
Male bears can generally mate with countless female bears, and even inbreeding, killing male bears will hardly affect the entire herd.
However, killing too many female bears will reduce the chances of many cubs being born, thus reducing the reproduction of the population.
This is actually reflected in many species.
"It's so strange, if it's really because of hunger during hibernation, why are all the female bears killed on this mountainside, including the female bear who attacked the hunter just now. β
Wang Kui clicked on the hunting record.
It was found that this mountain side started hunting at about 9 o'clock last night and hunted until the early hours of the morning, and in just a few hours, 4 animals were killed.
No wonder there was so much movement in the woods last night.
But.
If this mountain side right guard used the cubs to hunt the mother bear, it should only anger one, right, did he touch every black bear cub?
Then this is a big boldness!
After all, the hunting season stipulates that juvenile bears with a body length of 0.8 meters or less cannot be hunted, and the penalty is a hefty fine at least and the hunter's license is revoked!
"Let's go to the east first!"
Wang Kui wanted to find out why the black bear suddenly changed its normal and went crazy, and it was all the mother bear who went crazy, which can not only enrich the experience, but also be lucky, and maybe kill a few more black bears.
The audience was also curious about the black bear's madness.
As he made his way east, he first found a sales point and sold a camel bag full of black bear booty.
The rangers' eyes almost popped out when they saw the perfect bearskin.
If you want to have zero scratches on the bearskin, you can only use rope traps to catch it alive or poison it.
Either way.
This hunting method is much more difficult than hunting directly with a bow and arrow!
Thereupon.
Four bear skins, plus bear paws, bear bile, bear teeth and other items, sold a total of nearly 300,000 soft girl coins!
Add a morning in one night, 300,000 soft sister coins, this money is too easy to earn, right?
Looking at the yen numbers on Lao Kui's software account, as well as the countless zeros that can't be counted behind, the sailors are really sour.
During the transaction, Wang Kui also asked if the activity of the black bear was abnormal, because countries around the world will set up recorders in forest areas to monitor the reproduction status and activity trajectory of animals.
As a result, the Ranger of the Kamikawa Branch Office replied that everything was normal.
Leave the trading point.
Wang Kui continued eastward, and along the way, Da Gu and Lao Hei found many traces of black bear activity, including footprints from stepping on pressure, tree marks scratched by claws, and some dried blood stains.
Strangely, these traces always have black dust on them, which is very obvious, otherwise they would not easily smell it.
"Looks like there was a lot of movement last night......
Just by looking at these marks, it can be proved that the bears were very active last night.
"The points of these traces seem to be a location, what is it that makes these bears so flocking......"
He pinched it and muttered repeatedly, as if he had fallen into a demon.
Two kilometers later.
The traces of the black bear were more obvious, and there was more blood around him, and in his eyes, he found the first pool of bloody black bear carcass.
Wang Kui walked quickly to the corpse, against the smell of fish, lifted the lower body with a stick and took a look, sure enough, it was a female bear, the bear skin and limbs of the corpse had been cut off, and the internal organs had also been hollowed out, which should have been killed by the person called the right guard on the side of the mountain.
Go deep into dense forest areas.
The corpses followed one after the other, so that they were not scary.
"It seems that the method used by this hunter is very similar to mine, which is also to use the black bear itself as bait and concentrate on hunting, otherwise the corpses would not be so concentrated......"
Just as he finished saying this, suddenly, a striking black appeared on the ground in front of him.
It was a black, charred fire, surrounded by what seemed to be a circle of magic sticks, enclosing the fire in the middle, and hanging a lot of entrails from the sticks, which looked like some kind of sacrifice.
[, this is burning paper to the bear?]
γHarm pia~QAQ!γ
[There's no magic, right?]
[Could it be some kind of evil god sacrifice that summons the black bear to come and die!]
It's no wonder that the sailors in the live broadcast room are brain-opening, but the magic circle and the black ashes in the center are indeed a little scary!
Wang Kui glanced at the internal organs hanging from the stick next to him, walked to the center of the circle, pointed to the marks on these ashes, and suddenly realized: "There are at least two-digit black bears on it, and there are traces of bear paws everywhere, no wonder the bear paw prints we encountered on the road before were all covered with black ash, and they turned out to be stained here......
Before he could finish speaking, he lifted the ashes of the fire.
I saw that there was not only dust inside, but also some bones, especially a beast bone, with black holes and white faces, round holes, and fangs on the mouth, like a little ghost crawling out of the underworld.
Seeing this, Wang Kui's whole face turned iron-blue.
Seeing that Lao Kuidu's face was wrong, the audience was even more panicked!
[Won't it, the hunting live broadcast has been changed to the spirit live broadcast?]
[What the hell is this, Lao Kui?]
[Yes, it's so evil!]
......
In the face of the inquiries of many sailors, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "This is the skull of the young bear, and the heavenly spirit cover has been opened, and the whole sacrifice, if I guess correctly, should be the bear spirit festival that has been circulated in Japan for a long time!"
Spirit Bear Festival!?
It feels awesome to hear the name!
Wang Kui nodded, took out the skull of the young bear, touched the round hole on the top of the head, the opening was very smooth, and it looked like it was cut by a sharp weapon: "This is a bloody sacrifice method used by the indigenous Ainu people in Japan, capturing and hunting live bears, then eating their brains, drinking their blood, and hanging up the internal organs for worship, hoping to gain strength from the bear, and finally burn the corpse for worship!"
"Because the whole festival was so bloody and cruel and inhumane, this kind of sacrifice was banned after the Meiji era, and since then, the Ainu people have gradually been assimilated by the Yamato people, and there are very few pure-blooded Ainu people, and many traditions have gradually disappeared, I didn't expect to encounter the orthodox bear spirit festival here!"
"No wonder there are so many female bears going crazy, the smell of bears is very sensitive, this person hunts the cubs, uses its screams as bait, attracts the female bears, and digs out the internal organs of the cubs and hangs them in the open space, this smell will undoubtedly make every nervous female bear crazy! To be honest, this way of hunting is indeed a bit too cruel and cold-blooded......"
That's it.
He looked at such a big fire in front of him, and suddenly remembered that after hunting the three black bears last night, he saw a huge bonfire in the forest, which should be here, the right guard on the side of the mountain, is sacrificing the bear spirit sacrifice!
This kind of realistic story with mythological overtones has really attracted many audiences.
It is the first time many people have heard of this horrific way of hunting.
Especially eating bear brain raw and drinking bear blood, just imagining it makes people feel chilling!
"Hunters all over the world have this dark hunting method, such as cannibals in South America, and some African tribes in coming-of-age ceremonies, who also hunt African elephant cubs and paint their faces with elephant blood!"
Wang Kui's hunter card is a combination of traditional and modern hunter knowledge, and has long since abandoned the dross, leaving only the orthodox hunter's way.
Thereupon.
He took out the locator, took a photo of the scene and the bear cub's skull and sent it, as a professional hunter, what he hated most was this kind of abuse and killing, as for the specific reason, let the people from the Shangchuan branch to investigate!
As for what effect it had on him.
It's just that the bears are getting more manic!
It is no exaggeration to say that the bear spirit sacrifice on the right guard of the mountain side has caused the female bears of the entire mountain to fall into a state of madness, attacking people when they see them, although it is easier to complete the hunt, but it undoubtedly increases the danger to other unsuspecting hunters.
Like the bitten red armor hunter.
And the female bear that continues to go berserk is likely to affect the mental state of the black bear, you know, the number of black bears in Ishikari Mountain is far more than the female bear, and the size is also larger, once it causes a bear riot, I am afraid that hot weapons may not be able to suppress it!
Listening to the scene described by Lao Kui, the audience unconsciously substituted the scene of the battle between the tribe and the alliance in "World of Warcraft", and countless orcs shouted: "For the tribe"!
Of course.
Realistic herd attacks are not so terrifying, the most common, is a flock of birds, due to climate or noise pollution, flocks of birds collectively hit the glass to attack the city news.
There have been numerous cases of wolves attacking herders and sheep in pastoral areas.
What Wang Kui can do is to give these advance notices to the Forestry Department of the Shangchuan Branch.
Next.
He searched around, because there were too many bear paw prints, and they were too messy, so he could only find a random place and prepare to hunt.
What I didn't expect was.
Just when he was about to let them come over and smell it, under a branch with internal organs hanging next to him, a blue-black frog suddenly jumped over, which happened to land in the center of a bear's paw, Wang Kui glanced at the frog and grinned: "Let everyone popularize science, this is a kind of frog in Japan, the full name is Kongni chicken frog." β
What the hell is empty?
I just immersed myself in the horror of the Bear Spirit Sacrifice, and I'm ready to listen carefully to your popular science, you're turning too fast!]
[666, I haven't heard Lao Kui talk for a long time!]
[Buckle your anxious wow, wow Da Xi and touch you wow, spirit guy!]
[The scheming frog keeps touching your belly!]
......
Wang Kui spread his hands, "This is indeed not called the Kongni chicken frog, but it is indeed a very common frog in Japan, and in Japanese culture, the frog is known as a blessed beast!"
He was giving an introduction to the audience.
Suddenly, he couldn't help but feel that the palm print that the Japanese frog was stepping on was familiar, so he measured the width with his hand, and it was about 16 centimeters, which is a black bear that can reach this width......
It was the top black bear that hunted him yesterday!
After reacting, Wang Kui, the more he looked at this bear paw print, the more he felt like the one found under the trophy tree yesterday, "A black bear that can reach 16 centimeters in width is at least nearly 2 meters long, and its weight is probably close to 500 catties. β
"This kind of existence, generally in the same area, rarely see two, because the black bear foraging range is very wide, the farthest can be chased up to 10 kilometers away, so close to two black bears of the same size, it is easy to hunt each other!"
The audience didn't expect that this "Kongni Chicken Frog" really brought good fortune to Lao Kui!
If it weren't for it, there would be so many bear paw prints around, and Lao Kui would probably have just ignored it!
Boy!
I didn't expect that the top black bear would also come to the venue of the Bear Spirit Festival to join in the fun, its old man is really worried about everything, it was Lao Kui who was discovered first, and he took Lao Kui for most of the day!
But this time!
It was Wang Kui who discovered it first!
The so-called "enemies meet each other, and they are very red".
Wang Kui was still holding back the fire of being "counter-hunted" in his stomach, and when he met this guy again, it was such a good opportunity, how could he not seize it!
"Sniff it carefully!"
On the surface, the smell of ashes is very strong, and it is difficult to smell the body odor of animals, but it is for people, and the toner made from plant ash and tree branches has a very strong adsorption effect.
For tracking experts like hounds, it's easy to smell the scent molecules wrapped in the carbon particles.
"Huh...... Boom......"
The big cheek grinned, and a gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes!
