Chapter 231: Dawn Hunt

The wind blew in his ears, like the curses and wails of monsters deep in the forest. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Minamizawa pulled up the zipper of his coat. The temperature in the forest was much cooler than in the city, and his face was almost frozen. He took a deep breath, clenched the shotgun in his hand, and walked cautiously forward.

"What the. Nan Zeyu couldn't help but scold. He was originally very interested in hunting, but he never imagined that he would hike so long in the mountains of Pennsylvania for the sake of a deer.

"Where did it go?" Nan Zeyu took out the compass hanging around his neck and glanced at it. He looked up at the gray sky, the sun had not yet risen, and dawn had just arrived.

There was a sound of Suosuo's movement, and Nan Zeyu's hairs stood up. He still remembered Wan Guohou's advice to him when he just got out of the car: Be careful, there are bears in the mountains.

He almost stopped breathing. Even though the shotgun in his hand was large-caliber and the bullet lethality was unquestionable, he still felt nervous. After composing himself, he turned around very lightly and slowly.

"Director Nan?" Wan Guohou walked out from behind a tree, looking surprised.

"Probably because I haven't killed for too long, I've become less daring. Nan Zeyu thought to himself in his heart. He lowered his gun, "Why are you alone?"

"The rest of the people are with Mr. Gao, they are running very fast, and they can't find anyone for the time being. Wan Guohou shrugged, "I saw a white-tailed deer, it seemed to be injured, and the running posture was a little strange. ”

"That's what I did. "A few minutes ago, I hit a deer. But it was too dark to see clearly, and it ended up running away. ”

"Then keep chasing. Wan Guohou said.

Nan Zeyu took out the kettle from his backpack and took two sips. "I don't quite understand, Master Hou, why do we have to hunt before dawn? ”

"It's Pennsylvania's rule. Wan Guohou patiently explained, "The deer will hide and rest during the day and rarely go out. Only after the sun has set will they come out to forage for food. You know, deer's eyes can see well at night, but hunters can't. In order to prevent hunters from being accidentally injured by other wild animals that roam at night, and at the same time to ensure that hunters have the opportunity to hunt deer, Pennsylvania has made a rule that deer hunting can only be done half an hour before dawn and half an hour after sunset. ”

"I see. Nan Zeyu nodded convincingly. He looked at Wan Guohou's hunting outfitβ€”a camel-colored houndstooth tweed jacket on top, tonal trousers and knee-length leather boots on the bottom, and a playful peaked cap on his head. In contrast, Nan Zeyu wears a pea-gray green jacket lined with a flannel plaid shirt and worn-out jeans wrapped around his legs. "People look like a nobleman who comes out hunting, but I dress like a peasant. Nan Zeyu thought in his heart, "Although my body is not cheap, I am just compared." Realizing this, he couldn't help but feel a little sullen.

"Director Nan, didn't you and Mr. Gao get their hunting licenses a long time ago? I don't think it's the first time you've hunted in the United States, right?"

"Truth be told, although I got my license a long time ago, I only hunted wild boars once in Texas. Nan Zeyu said honestly, "The forests of Pennsylvania really haven't been here." ”

"I see. Wan Guohou nodded. He looked at it with his night vision binoculars for a moment, "I seem to know where it is." ”

This news cheered up Nan Zeyu, "Let's hurry up, Master Hou!"

Ten minutes later, Nan Zeyu and Wan Guohou found another fresh bloodstain, which apparently came from the injured white-tailed deer, as there was a clearly recognizable set of hoof prints near the bloodstain.

"You shouldn't give the dog to Mr. Gao. Nan Zeyu said with a slight complaint, "Do they need three dogs?"

Wan Guohou smiled slightly. In fact, before entering the forest, Wan Guohou had suggested bringing a hound, but Nan Zeyu confidently rejected the proposal. So, Wan Guohou asked K1, Z2 and T3 to bring their dogs to accompany Gao Jin. At this moment, after a long period of difficult tracking, Nan Zeyu began to regret his arrogance.

"It's windy, there's water nearby, and the hound's nose isn't 100 percent working. Wan Guohou comforted Nan Zeyu.

"Master Hou!" With a few hurried footsteps, Gao Jin and the other three appeared.

"We just said about you. Wan Guohou smiled and said, "How is it, is there a harvest?"

Gao Jin happily showed off the prey hanging from his back, a red lynx about 80 centimeters long.

"Ho. Nan Zeyu shouted in surprise, "It's hit so soon?"

Gao Jin rubbed his hands, "Good luck today." ”

Nan Zeyu looked at Gao Jin's prey with envy, "Mr. Gao can't go to the casino these days." ”

Gao Jin laughed, "Luck is concentrated today, isn't it?" He looked at the smiling Marquis of Wanguo, "Master Hou, do you hunt often?"

"Well, I love hunting. "Because, when I hunt, I can feel strongly how different man and beast are. ”

When Gao Jin heard this, he became interested, "What do you say?"

"You see, in this vast forest, all animals live according to the rules of the food chain. Animals don't run away to hunt when they have nothing to do, because hunting is a very hard thing that requires physical strength, sweat, and even bloodshed. Therefore, animals hunt only when they need to fill their stomachs or store food. But humans are different. Wan Guohou smiled slightly.

"You all know that this is no longer the era of slash-and-burn farming, nomadic wood-gathering, and that only a small part of humanity survives by hunting. Most people take up arms and go into the mountains and forests just to relieve boredom and seek excitement. Wan Guohou looked ahead with a telescope, "Perhaps, Director Nan hunted to use violent means reasonably, Mr. Gao hunted to show his strong male spirit in front of Miss You, and I, probably just to think." ”

"Thinking?" Nan Zeyu said in surprise, "You are so extravagant, you have driven for hours from Long Island, New York to come here just to think?"

Wan Guohou touched his beard, "Ladies and gentlemen, you probably have to admit one thing, that is, when wealth is accumulated to a certain extent, the definition of luxury will change. He grimaced, "What is really extravagant? I think that only what is difficult or even impossible for us to obtain can be called a luxury, worthy of our pursuit." Of course, I have to admit that this pursuit must require a lot of money and energy, as well as the will to never give up. From this point of view, it is not a luxury to drive far away to hunt and think. ”

Wan Guohou's conceited words made Nan Zeyu a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but say with a little sarcasm: "So, Master Hou, can I ask you, what powerful questions have you been thinking about in this mountain and forest?"

Wan Guohou said lightly: "It's not a big problem. His pale green eyes, which gleamed in the glimmer of dawn, and the white teeth that gripped when he smiled, made him look like a lonely wolf.

"I'm wondering what is the life pursuit of Director Nan and Mr. Gao. ”

As soon as the words fell, Gao Jin burst out laughing.

"Shhhh Wan Guohou held up a finger, "Don't disturb your prey." ”

A flock of snow geese, startled by laughter, flapped their white wings with black horns, flew up to the treetops, and then watched with wary eyes at the heavily armed uninvited guests on the ground.

"Have you come to a conclusion?" asked Nan Zeyu.

"I'll try. Wan Guohou smiled and said, "Mr. Gao should have attached great importance to appetite, so much so that he opened a number of restaurants." At the same time, Mr. Gao is also proficient in financial management, which can make his career bigger. From this, I conclude that Mr. Gao is very persistent in the pursuit of money, and Director Nan may be accustomed to solving some unfair and unjust problems through violent means, which is why he has achieved today's achievements. It is worth noting that Director Nan is not an airborne elite, but started from the grassroots level, which shows that Director Nan is very capable of enduring hardships. And if a person does not have perseverance and faith, it is impossible to endure for many years like this. ”

"Wow, have you evolved the ability to see through people's hearts?" Gao Jin said in surprise, "You won't guess my bank card password, will you?"

A group of people laughed, and the atmosphere was a little more cheerful.

After Nan Zeyu took two sips of water, he jokingly said, "Master Hou, the conclusion of your thinking is amazing. Fortunately, you and I are not enemies. ”

"What Director Nan said, we are friends, right, Master Hou?" Gao Jin said flatteringly.

Wan Guohou said quietly: "That's why I invited a few people to play." ”

By this time, the sky was already very bright.

"Oops, the sun is coming out. Nan Zeyu said with annoyance.

"Shhhh Wan Guohou made a silent gesture again. He waved his hand at the people behind him, and everyone immediately rushed forward in a conscious manner.

"Director Nan, if I'm not mistaken, about 500 meters ahead, it's your deer. Wan Guohou said, "It shouldn't be able to run." ”

Nan Zeyu was overjoyed and hurriedly chased after him.

A few minutes later, Wan Guohou and Gao Jin walked to a small open space, where Nan Zeyu was tying his prey with a rope - an adult white-tailed deer of about 100 catties. K1 and T3 crouched beside him to help, and Z2 held the leashes of three dogs in his hands.

"Director South can call it a day. Gao Jin said jokingly, "It's not convenient to carry such a heavy thing on your back, and besides, I suggest you don't go into the casino these days." ”

Nan Zeyu was in a good mood, he originally shot with the mentality of luck, but he didn't expect to really hit, and after tracking for more than half an hour, he actually found the deer. With the help of K1 and T3, he stuffed the deer into the sack he carried with him, "Master Hou, aren't we going back today?"

"It's up to you. Wan Guohou said, "Mr. Tao has already lived in YeuroEyes, just waiting for the day after tomorrow to check, with Mrs. Nan and Jiaojiao to take care of him, Director Nan doesn't need to worry too much." Miss You and Miss Gao are together, and they are accompanied by madness. New York Fashion Week has opened today, and there will be big-name fashion shows for several days in a row, and they will definitely have a lot of fun. ”

"I don't want to go back so soon, Mr. Gao, what about you?" Nan Zeyu was obviously unsatisfied.

"Of course I'm not in a hurry, haha. Gao Jin touched his bald head and said with a full spirit, "I just hit a lynx, and I just opened when I talked about it, and I haven't enjoyed it yet." ”

"Then let's go deeper. Wan Guohou proposed. "If we were tired, we could camp nearby, I had all the equipment in the car, it was very well equipped. ”

"Master Hou, can you ask your people to help me bring the deer down the mountain?"

"K1, come on. Wan Guohou instructed, "By the way, take Mr. Gao's prey down, put them all in the car, and come back to us when they are ready." There's no problem with the walkie-talkie, right?"

K1 grinned, "Don't worry, Master Hou." ”

A few people had just walked for a while when the sun came out. Wan Guohou glanced at his watch, "A quarter past seven, it happens to be the time of sunrise." ”

"It's strange that I rarely wake up so early, but now I'm not sleepy at all. Gao Jin said happily, "I feel like the blood is burning all over my body, haha." ”

Nan Zeyu looked at his feet and answered: "I'm used to getting up early, I don't feel anything, I just feel cold." ”

Wan Guohou glanced at Nan Zeyu's outfit, "Is it the clothes that Mrs. Nan prepared for you?"

"Yes. Nan Zeyu was a little embarrassed, "I don't know anything about the so-called fashion, she said that this kind of ...... is popular now Morio?"

β€œLumbersexual。 Wan Guohou smiled and nodded, "There is no problem with the figure of the South Hall Chief, only a big beard is missing." ”

When Nan Zeyu heard this, he immediately thought of K1. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Master Hou, I'm curious about one thing. You have so many people under your command, how do you manage it?"

"Although this question is a bit strange, I can answer you, I did not deliberately manage it. Wan Guohou adjusted his hat slightly, "My people are all willing to follow me, don't force it, if you want to go, just say hello." ”

Nan Zeyu looked at Wan Guohou in shock, "Don't you ask where they came from?"

Wan Guohou said with a smile: "Is it necessary? If they don't want to say, then I will ask in vain." ”

Both Z2 and T3 secretly laughed, apparently, they thought Minami Zeyu's question was funny.

Gao Jin interjected: "Master Hou, let me say something, don't be angry." ”

"Please. ”

"I think you're sometimes too indulgent to your subordinates. Gao Jin said with a big grin, "For example, that K1, I'm really afraid that he will mess around behind your back." ”

Nan Zeyu glanced at Gao Jin quickly, wanting to see some clues from the latter's face. But Gao Jin just staggered along, like a hunter gearing up.

Nan Zeyu couldn't see anything, so he had to move his gaze to Wan Guohou.

Wan Guohou looked into the distance with a telescope for a while, and then said calmly: "He won't mess around with me behind his back." In addition, please keep quiet, and there is a bear in front. ”
