Chapter 189, Camping (1) All kinds of requests!

At the end of the grassland is a mountain forest, and above the mountain forest is a snow-capped mountain.

When Tang Wen first fell in love with this place, I have to say that this beautiful scenery played a great role.

This is also one of the reasons why Bai Qing and Nangong Caiwei are willing to stay here. After all, it is undoubtedly an excellent visual treat to be able to ride a horse and see the snow-capped mountains every morning.

Humans are visual creatures.

Soon a dozen horses and mules were in the woods.

Rhubarb and the three cow dogs he led have already understood that today they are not here to watch the 'stupid big ones' on the grass and not let them run around. It's about drilling into the woods.

Several dogs excitedly rushed to the front of Tang Wen's horse's head and barked happily, startling a group of birds. Let Hou Rhubarb turn his head and roar, and take the lead in exploring the way with a little brother. Majestic, like a little tiger.

Of course, it is not only majestic, but its little brother is also a mastiff with a shoulder height of 90 centimeters and facing upwards, which can bite the wolf to death! The two dogs walked on the forest path, stepping on the grass and dead branches on the ground, and did not shy away from anything, and their barks were low and powerful, and they did not mean to be timid because they came to a strange environment!

Thomas caught up with Tang Wen on a horse, watched the two dogs start to pee on the side of the tree to make marks, and sighed: "Rhubarb is really a good leader, my dad always tells me that Rhubarb is very similar to when he was young!"

Tang Wen and several of their countrymen looked at each other and laughed, and although they could accept the old man in the United States and compare himself to a dog, they also knew that it was a compliment. But I still can't help but want to laugh.

As soon as I entered the mountain forest, the temperature suddenly dropped a lot.

Tang Wenlai's day was the hottest time of the year in Montana, but the average temperature was only in the twenties. Only the midday hours are a little hotter.

Entering the mountains and forests, Thomas walked in the front, and Lu Fei was in the rear. Thomas asked everyone to put on brightly colored sun-protective clothing. To prevent some bugs from landing on the body to bite.

"Everyone should pay attention to their sitting posture, trust the horse under them, and do not change their center of gravity easily. Just ride it as you normally would. Thomas talked about the main points of the wild trip: "Pay attention to the surrounding environment, this can be regarded as a relatively primeval forest, the environment is complicated, beware of snakes, pheasants, etc., suddenly come out, don't let them startle the horse......"

Lin Cuicui, who was riding in the middle, was a little worried when she heard this, and her eyes were almost out of sight.

Tang Wen smiled when he saw this, and drove the cattle dogs around him to accompany her.

Four mastiffs, two exploring the way in front, and one accompanying Lu Fei at the end. Each has its own job.

As for whether Bai Qing rode the prince or Tang Wen's own black pearl would be startled by the snake.

He felt that with this group of non-venomous snakes in the cold woods, they would dare to come out if they really wanted to. Two stallions can trample them to death with one hoof......

Rhubarb was in front with another head dog, stopping and waiting every time he crossed the corner. Wait until Thomas is close before moving forward.

In the forest, sunlight shines through the tall and dense trees, falling from the top into irregular patches of light. Every tree towers into the sky, and the new little trees under the roots have little chance of growing, and they will soon become food for wild beasts.

Suddenly, a yellow figure on the side of the road flashed away, and several mules screamed timidly, and their steps were a little flustered. It wasn't until the shepherd dog beside Lin Cuicui barked at them twice that they calmed down.

"What is it? It doesn't look like a deer. ”

Thomas nodded: "It should be a wild sheep." ”

"Are there wild sheep here?" Tang Wen felt incredible, and asked very layman: "Why don't you catch wild sheep and raise them at home?" or catch the big ones and sell them directly?"

Before Thomas could speak, Jesse laughed and said, "Don, you will make people laugh when you say that." Catch sheep to buy, you can't even pass the disease prevention level. No one in the market will dare to collect it. As for catching it back and raising it, it is even more inappropriate, this wild goat is suitable for the environment in the wild, which means that it must be difficult to fatten, and it is not ripe, it is not a population, and the sheep will not accept it...... In short, it is not as good as the sheep that have been domesticated for many years. ”

When it comes to raising sheep, Jesse does know very well, because Tang Wen likes to eat mutton, and the ranch specially recruited a cowgirl to raise a flock of sheep and a bunch of poultry with Jesse.

Tang Wen touched his nose and said, "Then it seems that I can only call and eat." ”

Thomas smiled: "We can walk for two hours to get out of this 10,000 acres of mountain forest, and any animal running in it is undoubtedly your property......

"Looks like I've got a bunch of gold coins that can run. Tang Wen groaned slightly and told a joke. Everyone chuckled and the atmosphere of the trip was relaxed.

Although Montana is rich in natural resources, it also has strict protection laws, which means that hunting is not easy, and in some places it is not possible to hunt with rifles...... But Tang Wen is in his own mountain forest. None of these dogmas are easy to use, and he has the final say in everything.

Soon there was no obvious way forward in the forest, and everywhere was covered with grass and stones.

Thomas saw that Tang Wen and Bai Qing were riding steadily, and began to follow Rhubarb's footsteps to explore the way.

Tang Wen looked at the various scenery and the occasional animals along the road, but he was not bored.

Towards noon, Thomas led the group to a creek along the intended route. The current is crystal clear, and the pebbles and small fish beneath the surface are clearly visible.

The creek is flanked by rocks. There are no plants, Thomas explains, and the stream rises quickly during the rainfall season. Therefore, from now on, they should always keep an eye on the weather.

When camping, stay away from water sources to avoid being infested by animals that come to drink and the water level suddenly rises at night.

"Our noon food, do you want to go hunt something and come back to eat?" Bai Qing asked as she pulled out her small-caliber semi-automatic rifle from her long pouch.

The iron boxes on the mules were unloaded one by one, Lin Cuicui came over and chose one to open, and Tang Wen found that inside was a large box that kept fresh for a short time, containing dry bread, potatoes and some green vegetables.

Seeing that Bai Qing was eager to try and even brought the goggles, everyone was as good as a stream, anyway, they came out to play, and of course they should hunt and eat meat. Lin Cuicui suggested: "You can shoot a piglet or some pheasants, deer and the like." It can't be too big, otherwise it's not easy to clean up, this kind of weather meat is easy to spoil, and it is easy to provoke bears. ”

So Tang Wen and Bai Qing took Rhubarb and another dog into the forest again.

The rest of the people simply set up the camp and prepared to make a fire for cooking.

"I'll try to let Rhubarb go hunting, and then shoot when you see it......" Tang Wen had just seen Rhubarb grinding its claws on a stone and decided to take a look at its hunting ability.

"You still need to say it!"

"Rhubarb, go. ”

Rhubarb and his little brother bowed down and jumped out quietly. Stop and sniff from time to time to discern the direction.

Bai Qing shook her head and glared at Tang Wen: "These two are gone, how can we find prey?"

Tang Wen scratched his head and spread his hands and said, "Let's try our luck along the stream! It's so hot at this time, maybe a lot of animals will come to drink the water..."

"That's all there is to it, but it's better to go down the stream...... You be vigilant and keep an eye on the woods......"

"Don't worry! I don't have to fire a second shot even if there is a bear!" Tang Wen patted the shiny revolver silver gun inserted in the black holster on his waist, the body of the gun was very long, especially the barrel, which extended half of his thigh from the crotch of his waist.

"The recoil of this gun is super large, be careful not to break your wrist!" Bai Qing likes this gun very much, but it can be very unsuitable, and after firing a few shots in a row, it will be difficult to hit the head. She doesn't like to hold a gun in both hands, so it's not as good as Tang Wen.

Oh, it's the famous 'hand cannon' Colt M500. 0.50-inch, 12.7 mm round. Due to the size of the bullets, the wheel can only hold 5 rounds, but in terms of power: it can easily hunt an African elephant with a single shot!
