Chapter 442: Fox Hunting
Ling Wenjiao went down from the cliff to the bottom of the valley to find Huang Tengxiao, and said, "We have been targeted by African wolves, you better let everyone be careful next." ”
Huang Tengxiao looked at her suspiciously: "How can you be sure that there are wolves following us? If it's not true, if I tell them like this, it will only increase their psychological burden, which will affect our next trip." ”
Ling Wenjiao said: "Do you want to see the evidence? Then you can come up with me." ”
With that, she turned around and walked up again, and then asked Huang Tengxiao to come up with her to take a look.
Huang Tengxiao followed her in confusion, and asked, "What other evidence is there?"
Ling Wenjiao didn't say anything, and walked silently in the direction where those wolf eyes appeared just now.
Huang Tengxiao saw that she didn't respond, and she was stunned and only knew how to move forward. So he went after him, trying to see what the evidence was for her.
Ling Wenjiao took the flashlight and shone forward, and after walking two or three hundred meters, she suddenly stopped.
Huang Tengxiao stood behind her and looked at the place where her flashlight went. Suddenly, I saw that the shallow sand in front of me was covered with plum blossom footprints.
After seeing these plum blossom footprints, he was immediately stunned. Immediately after that, his expression immediately sank, and he crouched forward according to the flashlight, carefully observing the footprints.
Ling Wenjiao stood behind him and said, "These are the traces they left just now, they just stood here and looked at me." They knew I had discovered their presence, so they retreated for the time being. ”
Huang Tengxiao stood up, shone his flashlight around a few more times, and then said, "There are quite a few of them...... And when they got here, they didn't come any further. How did you see them in the darkness at such a distance?"
As he spoke, he looked back at Ling Wenjiao in confusion.
Ling Wenjiao glanced around and said, "Of course you can't see it with the naked eye. ”
Huang Tengxiao confirmed that the wolf footprints here were indeed left not long ago, and turned around and walked back. As he walked, he said, "Could it be that you came from the oasis?"
Ling Wenjiao followed behind him silently and did not refute his words.
Although she knew that these wolves had not only followed from the oasis, but had followed before.
After returning to the camp, Huang Tengxiao did not tell everyone about it.
He said to Ling Wenjiao: "I don't think they should come back tonight, let's pay attention to this matter ourselves first, and tell them tomorrow." ”
Ling Wenjiao didn't say anything, and sat next to the fire and asked him for a map.
Their goal this time has not yet arrived, and the map is a handmade map drawn by the locals themselves.
According to Cansanti's travel time, he will be able to get to that place at noon tomorrow.
But it's not certain whether the wolves will come again tonight. Although Huang Tengxiao said that they might not come again tonight, Ling Wenjiao didn't take his words to heart.
The whereabouts of wolves are unpredictable, and they may come back tonight, or maybe they won't come back tonight, but no matter what, they have to be guarded again.
Ling Wenjiao didn't let her guard down all night, and she didn't relax until dawn.
After daybreak, she continued to follow the group out of the valley and towards her destination.
Huang Tengxiao told Cansandy and the others about the wolf's footprints last night after dawn, and everyone became nervous when they heard that the wolf was following.
After a few hours of nervous walking, they finally arrived at the destination of their trip.
It was a wind-blown sand and gravel valley, and the surrounding sand and rocks were blown by the wind and sand into strange shapes, and many craggy strange rocks stood there, and the bottom of the rocks was left by the wind and sand to leave sand dunes one after another.
The group found a leeward place and stopped, and then Cansandy said to them: "This area is the only place where the desert fox has ever appeared, take this place as the center and look around, maybe you can find their traces, but can you find them...... It's up to your luck. ”
The guide translated his words to Huang Tengxiao, and Cansanti's words also told them that this kind of little fox was rarely encountered even by the locals.
At the same time, it also shows that in this desert except this area, it is even more impossible to see the little fox in other places.
Cansandy added: "This little fox has a very sharp observation ability at night, and it is small in size. Often before you see it, it already sees you from a distance and hides. ”
So you have to rely not only on luck, but also on intelligence! You have to be clever with them! Otherwise, even if you are lucky, you may not be able to see their shadows!
After the camp was set up at noon, the people began to rest. After dark in the evening, the action began.
Two or three people were left in the camp to watch and tell them to watch against wolves. Because there are only three of them in the camp, there is a high chance that they will be attacked by wolves.
But if you don't go out at night to observe, it's hard to see the little fox's tracks during the day. Therefore, they must go out in batches at night to run errands, leaving Xiaodong and the three of them to guard the camp with their heads strained.
Cansandy took Huang Tengxiao, Lao Hu, Hu Cheng and Ling Wenjiao to find it, and the guide followed.
As he walked, Huang Tengxiao suddenly looked at Ling Wenjiao and said, "Do you have a way to find this little guy?"
Ling Wenjiao glanced at him and said, "I'm not sure either, try your best." ”
Huang Tengxiao looked at her and said, "Although I don't know why the boss has to stuff you over, but since you have already come, it doesn't matter if you can find it or not, you should take it as a trip abroad." There aren't many opportunities for girls like you from a family background!"
He smiled as he spoke.
In his understanding of Ling Wenjiao, there are really few opportunities for an ordinary little girl like this in the countryside to travel abroad. And in this era, those who can come out at her age are not powerful in the family, they must be the children of rich families.
How can children from ordinary rural families have such opportunities?
Ling Wenjiao rolled her eyes and said, "It's as if I can't have the opportunity to go abroad again except this time!"
For her, going abroad is no longer a difficult task. Even if Old Man Qin didn't help her get the visa down, if she needed to go abroad, she could also get the visa down.
Huang Tengxiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "Look at other people's little girls in families like you, do they have the strength to go abroad? ”
Ling Wenjiao replied lightly: "Maybe." ”
Cansandi took them on a walk, and it was very difficult to observe the critters hidden in the darkness in the light at night. But fortunately, Huang Tengxiao was fully equipped, because he brought night vision goggles.
