522 Not a single shot fired

Zhang Hao is patiently looking for the deer road, basically he can be sure of some things, basically he can be sure that there must be a herd of deer around, this is good news, he believes that there is a great certainty of hitting a deer.

Hunting is very learned, and most of the best hunters know the habits of various beasts, because it is more efficient to adopt different hunting methods according to the different habits of wild animals.

For example, deer, most of them like to eat grass or drink water that grows in water, and they come down from the mountain at a certain time every night and return to the mountain at dawn. The deer, without any noise and no more ferocious than its beasts, walked the old way up and down the mountain every day, and over time it walked a very smooth path.

According to the habits of the deer, then choose the most advantageous place to shoot, hide in the grass high or hide in the large trees below the wind, and wait quietly with the gun in hand.

Because if the deer notice that someone has been here or has any other alarm, then they will not take the old way, or they will go up and down the mountain at another time. Therefore, naturally you need to be careful, and you must not startle the snake.

Zhang Hao and Greg have discovered the deer trail now, and they now need to determine whether this is an abandoned deer trail or a deer trail in use, which is very important, and they have to grasp the situation.

Greg shouted, "Hao, I found what we need, and here they are!"

Zhang Hao immediately trotted to find Greg, and indeed found the traces left by the group of deer, which was actually dung, and it was still fresh dung, which was indeed good news, proving that this deer trail was indeed in use.

"Old guy, it looks like we're going to have a lot of luck, we're going to have a good catch. Zhang Hao smiled and fist-banging with Greg, worthy of celebration, "It looks like your fireplace is decorated, we need to be patient next." ”

Greg also laughed, in a good mood, "Boy, it looks like I'm really lucky, it's a great retirement gift." Haha, that's my takeaway, get ready!"

Zhang Hao was also happy, he knew that Greg was a little overexcited now, and for hunters, deer hunting and bear hunting were definitely the most rewarding, and this was the full harvest.

And now, Greg is about to return with a full load, which is definitely his wish, and it is to satisfy his desire to hunt.

Get ready, set up a simple trap, continue to track the deer, and find a reliable ambush spot, for Zhang Hao and Greg, the rest of the work is very boring, and it will take a lot of patience.

Nature is not much of a problem for two people, just be patient, and a good hunter naturally needs to have enough patience, which is a basic quality that a hunter needs to have.

Lobo was honestly lying under the tree, or rather resting, for him, it was a bit boring now, because there was nothing he could do, so it was more realistic to recharge his energy.

"Hao, you will need to find a new partner when hunting in the future, I am retired, completely retired!" Greg was a little sad, he couldn't accept the old age, "I feel that the past two days are really too tired, I can't guarantee that I can continue to persevere." ”

Zhang Hao is indeed a little depressed, the familiar old guy is really old, "Old guy, although you are retired, there is not much loss for me." You know I'm not good at sensationalism, and even though you're retired, you're still coming to the ranch often. ”

That's true, Greg is indeed retired, but this doesn't mean that he won't come to the ranch at all, so there's nothing to be sad about, whether he comes to the ranch or Zhang Hao goes to find him, it's still very convenient to contact, and you can still reminisce about the past.

After determining the ambush site and making simple traps, Zhang Hao and Greg also found some small animals, which were naturally pheasants and rabbits, plus the potatoes they brought, and simply ate some to replenish their strength.

"Go and rest, old fellow, I'll keep vigil. I'm still young, and I'll wake you up if that herd of deer comes. ”

Hearing Zhang Hao's words, Greg didn't have the ability, he knew that his physical strength was unbearable, he knew that he didn't have the ability to continue to persevere, so he had a good rest, so as to ensure that he could be hit by one blow when the group of deer appeared.

Zhang Hao is still strong, and it is not a big problem for him not to sleep all night; keep paying attention, always pay attention to the movement, you can't be distracted at this time, otherwise this night will be in vain.

Greg hugged Luo Bo, Luo Bo's thick fur can still keep out the cold, and Zhang Hao is obviously wearing a coat to stay in the night; to be honest, hunting is sometimes to make himself uncomfortable, which is also the reason why Zhang Hao has not been so keen on hunting in recent years, because it is really more comfortable to nest at home.

It was really a sin, because the temperature in the mountains itself was relatively low, not to mention that it was still the middle of the night, and because in order to avoid startling the grass and snakes, even the fire could not be lit.

The surroundings are pitch black, if it weren't for Zhang Hao's boldness, ordinary people would really be frightened in such an environment, as if they would stretch out a claw from the darkness at any time, so that people can't relax at any time.

Of course, the greatest sense of accomplishment in hunting is the moment when you hit the prey, which is the real enjoyment and fun.

Zhang Hao, who was holding a shotgun, was drowsy, but still kept some vigilance, not only for fear of missing the deer, but also because in such darkness, many wild beasts were moving.

The harsh environment can hone people's will, let alone experienced old hunters.

Suddenly, Zhang Hao gently pushed Greg, "Old man, there's movement." ”

Greg immediately got up and touched his shotgun from his side, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Hao, who lowered his voice, said, "It shouldn't be a beast, Luo Bo is sleeping soundly now." I think the deer have arrived, and we're going to start getting ready now. ”

Although there are still more than two hours before the sun rises, it really doesn't matter, Zhang Hao and Greg don't care about these at all.

The early birds get the worms, and for hunters who want to catch deer, staying up late is a must, unless they are lucky enough to spot a herd of deer during the day, or they can only wait for the early hours of the morning.

"I hope it's a big herd of deer, I don't want to see a herd of fawns or doe, only the antlers of a stag are worthy of me!" Greg shook his hands, a little worried and expectant.

Zhang Hao smiled, it was really like this, if he stayed in the mountains for two days, and the result was a group of fawns or doe, it would undoubtedly be even more disappointing.

Only a stag with intact horns qualifies as a taxidermy, and if a doe or fawn specimen is hung in the fireplace, it is actually even more shameful, and only the most novice rookie will think that it is a harvest!

Greg and Zhang Hao traveled in the dark, in fact, they were far away from the deer, because they were worried that the deer would sense the danger and escape, and there must be no omission, otherwise it would be really difficult to find this group of deer.

Finally arrived at the predetermined ambush point, Greg immediately began to disguise himself and began to look for a favorable shooting spot, and Zhang Hao did not hesitate at all, he cautiously continued to move forward, he needed to find out the reality of the group of deer.

Finally, finally saw this group of deer, although the sky is only slightly brighter now, but Zhang Hao can still barely see the reality of this group of deer, quite surprised.

Go back the way you came at once, and now you need to ambush the deer road.

"Old guy, it's a white-rumped deer, you're lucky!" Zhang Hao is really happy, because under normal circumstances, white-rumped deer also move in small groups, but in many cases, females carry fawns, and males generally move alone or in smaller groups.

And this time I saw only three white-rumped deer, all of them were stags, and the luck was not only these, but also because these were three bucks that should be adults at first glance, with relatively large size and forked horns that were not due to fighting and exercise.

"Hurry up and ambush it, you can replenish the gun!" Greg was pleasantly surprised, and made a decision for the sake of prevention, "We will only choose the one with the largest and most complete antlers, and you are responsible for replenishing the gun, so as not to give it a chance to escape." ”

Greg was a seasoned hunter, but he couldn't guarantee another hunt. At this time, he is seeking stability, and he needs Zhang Hao to double insurance for him.

Zhang Hao climbed the tree and had a better career condescendingly, while Greg lay in the bushes, not caring about the discomfort at all. Lobo's words, naturally, lie next to Stan.

The two of them waited so patiently, and finally waited for the deer herd to turn back along the deer path, it was just early morning, and the insects and birds chirped, and the birds sang and the flowers were fragrant, which seemed so harmonious and natural.

Zhang Hao saw Greg give the signal, and both of them aimed at the deer with the largest antlers, and Zhang Hao aimed at the neck, which could ensure that the blow would be fatal.

"Bang"

A gunshot broke the peace of the mountain, and the two deer fled in panic, while the other deer fell to the ground and struggled, and it would not have a chance to run and forage for food in the mountains and forests again.

It took two days and a night of hard work, but Zhang Hao didn't fire a shot, because Greg was killed with one shot, and Zhang Hao didn't need to make up the gun at all.

Although Zhang Hao seems to have done useless work, he doesn't think so, he really doesn't have any prey gains, but seeing the old guy laughing happily, Zhang Hao naturally feels that the suffering in the past two days is worth it, and he has long had such an awareness!

Greg couldn't be happier, because this might be the last time he would participate in a deer hunt, and he was content to have such a reward, and now he could officially retire!
