Chapter 748: Into the Mountain (1/2)
This time in the team that went into the mountains to look for tigers
There were not only professors and students from the provincial university, but also dozens of police officers from Qingshan.
In addition, the village also arranged several guides, including Uncle Lao Yao, Uncle Jiefang, who often enters the mountain, and a few young people in the village, such as Zhang Feng and Uncle Erniu, Uncle Dashan were all recruited into the mountain.
Because the tiger infestation is a matter of great importance and is related to the safety of the whole village, the village must arrange personnel to go into the mountains to participate in the search.
The villagers who entered the mountain all held their own handy weapons, including flat shoulders and sharp harpoons, Zhang Feng not only brought the harpoons at home, but also led the two big wolf dogs at home, yes, it was the two tall and mighty Wang Xingren of Da Hei and Xiao Hei.
"Xiaofeng, these two dogs of yours are not ordinary!" Seeing that the three police dogs he brought were trembling under the coercion of Da Hei and Xiao Hei, and they didn't even dare to lean over with their tails between them, Uncle Tang asked Zhang Feng with a smile.
"Hehe, yes, my dog has the blood of wild wolves, and ordinary wolf dogs must be afraid of them. Zhang Feng explained with a smile.
Uncle Cousin stared at the two dogs with a smile, really wanting to see how they differed.
With a tall and mighty body, jet-black shiny hair, and a strong murderous intent in his eyes, he was like a cold beast.
But when Zhang Feng beckoned, the two dogs were like two obedient pugs, shaking their heads and running over, with a cute and cute look, how could they be as bloodthirsty as just now.
What two amazing dogs!, Uncle Cousin couldn't help but think with envy.
Soon the team entering the mountain was finally prepared
Uncle Yao walked in front to lead the way, followed by two policemen with police dogs.
Then Zhang Feng and a few people, as for the rest of the police, they all followed, and everyone trekked through mountains and rivers and quickly rushed to the place where the tiger's traces were found.
The two professors are worthy of often going into the mountains for field trips, so their physical fitness is also very good, and they have kept up with the team closely and have never fallen behind.
"Everyone, be careful, there's a forest of weeds in front of you!" After a while, Uncle Yao turned around and reminded the people behind him.
"Don't worry, we'll pay attention!" Uncle Tang nodded with a smile, and then instructed the people behind him to be careful.
Speaking of live hemp, everyone should be familiar with it, as long as people who grew up in the countryside, it is estimated that they have dealt with it, and even suffered from it.
Seeing a large patch of hemp under the woods, Professor Zhou smiled and introduced the knowledge of hemp to everyone:
"Hehe, in fact, nettle is nettle. In ancient times, it was called hairy or weed. Li Shizhen of the Ming Dynasty said in the "Compendium of Materia Medica": "Nettle, nettle, stinging sound". ”
"Yes, this thing is found in almost all the country, and the mountain people in Shaanxi also call it "stinging grass", and the grassland herdsmen call it "biting grass". Professor Liu also added with a smile.
Nettle grass, an annual wild herbaceous plant with stinging and fine hairs. Generally, the plant height is 50~150 cm, the stem is erect, the whole plant is light green, single or has a few branches, there are four edges, the whole plant is densely stinging, and it is strange and painful to touch.
When I was a child, I went into the mountains to play, but I was stung by it, this thing is very poisonous, every time I am stung, it hurts for several days.
Although there were reminders from the villagers, two policemen behind him were still hit by the trick and accidentally stung their feet barefoot.
But it doesn't matter, just rub some cool oil and move on.
After that, we encountered a lot of rare animals and plants,
For example, just after crossing the second hill, the two professors found a tall golden silk nanmu, about 60 or 70 centimeters in diameter, according to Professor Zhou and Professor Liu's estimates, this tree is 50 or 60 years old.
Unfortunately, everyone had to go into the mountains to look for tiger tracks, otherwise the two professors would definitely stay and slowly study this relatively rare and precious tree.
"Professor Zhou, Professor Liu is gone!" Seeing that everyone was about to disappear in front of him, Zhang Feng, who was in charge of taking care of the two professors, hurriedly reminded.
"Hey!!" the two professors nodded stupidly, and when they saw that everyone was gone, they reluctantly followed.
The mountains are not paradise, and many places are full of dangers.
Especially in summer, it is the season when poisonous snakes are active, so Uncle Tang specially arranged for Zhang Feng to follow the two professors to protect their safety.
As for whether Zhang Feng has this ability, Uncle Cousin doesn't have to think about it at all, others don't know Zhang Feng's force, can he still not know.
For a martial artist, as long as he is a little careful, the poisonous snakes and fierce beasts in the mountains will not be able to enter the body at all, so it is very suitable to arrange Zhang Feng to take care of the two professors.
The mountain road for more than ten miles is rugged and difficult to travel
After walking through the weeds forest, there was another thorny ridge, and in between, there was only a winding path to continue on.
After passing through the thorny mountains, you will see a vast sea of forests, green pines towering among the mountains, and thick pine needles on the ground make it impossible to see the way forward.
If Uncle Lao Yao and Uncle Jiefang led the way, everyone would definitely get lost, because the overwhelming branches of the green pines completely obscured the light in the sky, and even if it was noon, the woods were still dark and silent.
Picking thick pine needles, everyone carefully walked along the mountain road,
Don't think that such a mountain road is easy to walk, because under the soft pine needles, there may be 'traps', and if you are not careful, you may fall on your feet or even roll down the mountain.
"Everyone be careful, follow the footprints in front!" Old Uncle Yao, who was walking at the front of the line, reminded everyone without mentioning it.
The villagers also know about the traps hidden in the pine forest, so before each step, they use the flat pole or harpoon they carry with them to probe the ground and feel solid before moving forward.
The policemen did the same, each picked up a branch and used it as a crutch, so the rest of the journey went smoothly without any accidents.
"Uncle Yao is almost here, right?" Uncle Cousin took out the kettle, took a sip of water, and then asked Uncle Yao.
After walking for such a long time, even Uncle Tang felt that he was a little unbearable, after all, he was already in his fifties, and he had been driving for more than an hour, and he was about to reach his limit.
"It's coming, I guess there will be half an hour left, and we will be able to reach the dead wood forest. Uncle Yao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with some panting.
"Uncle Yao, why don't we rest for a while?" Uncle Tang thought about it, everyone should be tired, and before arriving at the destination, they must recuperate, otherwise this group of tired divisions will be more dangerous if they really encounter tigers.
"Okay, there is a small mountain spring in front of us, let's walk for a few more minutes, and then rest there!" Uncle Yao nodded, knowing that everyone didn't carry much water with them, and it just happened that the small waterhole in front of him replenished the drinking water.
