Chapter 483 [Lion Rock]
The meals are not very tasty, but they are filling. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter eating, we had a pot of water in the morning, everyone made tea and coffee, and then sat around the campfire and used portable portable lamps to read the map together. Although this map is a satellite image, the clarity is not very good, and you can see a rough idea. In addition, Yang Yong has a guide in his forties by his side, which can be described as experienced, and he is also a local native, you are one of the few lucky people who have seen the true face of the black panther.
The guide pointed to an altitude on the map, no more than 1,000 meters, and said to Yang Yong. "Mr. Yang, this is the Lion Rock I told you, I saw the traces of a black panther near this Lion Rock more than ten years ago. I wonder if Lion Rock is now or if there is a black panther? That's two words. ”
Yang Yong frowned and looked at the map and asked puzzledly, "Lion Rock, this name is very peculiar. Could it be that this small hill with an altitude of no more than one meter is inhabited by many African lions? ”
The black guide smiled and said, "That's right, a very large African lion colony lived on Lion Rock a few decades ago, and there were actually seven strong adult male lions. It is called an unprecedented super large lion pack, but this group of lions actually attacked a Maasai tribe and ate several people. ”
"You also know that the Maasai are not easy to mess with in Africa, their tribe was attacked and a few people were eaten, so it can be said that there are heavy losses. The chief of that tribe took the warriors of his tribe and surrounded the African lions in the Lion Rock. ”
"Although this lion pack has seven adult male lions, 21 lionesses. There were also more than twenty and a half sized lions cubs, which were quite strong in combat, but they could not withstand the spears and machetes of the Maasai people. In the end, they were all slaughtered, and since then, nothing has happened to Lion Rock, so I only saw a panther once more than ten years ago. ”
The Maasai are known as the fighting people of Africa, the Spartans of the blacks. The bright red robe is unique on the entire African continent, and the Maasai male coming-of-age ceremony is very special. The soon-to-be-adult boy had to run to the savannah alone and hunt a lion to bring it back to complete his rite of passage.
So when the African lion saw the Maasai warrior in a red robe, he turned around and ran with his tail between his legs. Unexpectedly, the African lions on this lion rock actually sought death and attacked a tribe of Maasai people. No wonder it was slaughtered and exterminated, of course, with the increase in conservation awareness over the years, coupled with the worrying survival of African lions, so the coming-of-age ceremony of the Maasai people has one less project to hunt African lions.
Although there is no such thing as a rite of passage to kill a lion, the fear that has been formed for thousands of years is hidden in the blood of the lion. Seeing the Marseille warriors in red robes, these African lions turned around and ran, and they had already formed a conditioned reflex, at this time, the African guide took a cigar handed over by Yang Yong and said thank you! Then Meimei took a sip and said.
"Lion Rock is not a lonely hill pack, but a canyon. The water and grass in the canyon are abundant, and Lion Rock is the highest peak of the canyon, and it is very secluded, and there is no road around the canyon at all. Therefore, the natural scenery is very well preserved, and there are many prey, so there is a supernatural life like a black panther. ”
"If my grandfather hadn't taken me to Lion Rock, I wouldn't have been able to find it! I don't know if it's Lion Rock. ”
The more secretive the better, without being disturbed by the outside world, so that the most primitive state of the valley can be preserved. There are also creatures like the panther in such a living habitat, so this lion rock is the target of its own action. But this Lion Rock is beyond the sphere of influence of the Lyman Reserve, and if it is really counted, it should be in Botswana.
Africa is not a peaceful place, and if there is any danger in the reserve, it is possible. However, relying on the large number of people and advanced weapons, Yang Yong believed that even if he encountered a bandit gang of several hundred people, he could escape with his whole body. In addition, the supernatural life of the black panther is too attractive to give up, and even if he encounters danger, Yang Yong decides to fight hard.
So Yang Yong said firmly, "I'm going to Lion Rock again, no matter how hard the journey is, how dangerous it is, it's worth the risk for the black panther that can be hunted." ”
Since Yang Yong, a billionaire, is not afraid, what else is there to be afraid of these patrol members who carry AK47 on their backs. They were holding automatic rifles, not burning sticks, which were also high-end weapons on the African continent, so there was nothing to fear.
But the guide was not so optimistic, and said to Yang Yong with a frown, "Mr. Yang, this lion rock is beyond the scope of the nature reserve. And it goes deep into Botswana, where the roads are rough and very difficult to walk, and even if you drive a car, it will take you three or four days to get there. Moreover, the area of the Lion Rock Valley is very large, and the few of us who go in it are simply a drop of water in the sea, and it is impossible to search the entire Lion Rock at all, is it too risky. ”
Yang Yong laughed and said indifferently. "It's okay, they carry so many weapons? There are still so many materials that can last for half a month. Even if we get lost in the Lion Rock Valley, we can hunt the antelope to survive, and then use the satellite phone to inform your master, Mr. Rivers, of what to be afraid of. ”
"The promise I made yesterday is still valid, and you brought up the presence of a panther in Lion Rock. If you actually find the panther and the success rate is not high, then you will be rewarded with $100,000. In addition, each of these African brothers can also get a prize of 50,000 US dollars, how about it? Now you have faith. ”
What else to say? $100,000 is a billionaire's worth in Africa. Everywhere you go, you are a man, how many times does a person have a life of a person? If Yang Yong gets what he wants. Then these people can fight for a day's worth of wealth for their families to go back, even if their lives are in danger, who cares! The phrase "starving the bold and starving to the cowardly" is also a wise saying in Africa, what you don't say is what you do.
Since the decision was approved by everyone, Yang Yong yawned and returned to the luxury tent to rest. Yang Yong's tent was followed by two giant canines that looked very much like African lions, when I first saw Yang Yong's and these two large canines that were so big and so fierce-looking. These African black buddies who had never seen a Tibetan mastiff were really frightened.
Yang Yong went back to rest, but the guide, who was under great pressure, began to study the map. Plan tomorrow's route, and there are two black buddies and the first shift on duty, watch the fire and not let it go out. To prevent wild animals from breaking through the protective circle and attacking the humans inside, of course, it is impossible to keep these patrol members awake all night, and in the second half of the night, the two bodyguards brought by Yang Yong will take over and continue to stand guard in their place.
These people are surrounded by wild animals on the African continent, real primeval grasslands, and all kinds of animal cries come and go all night. There are all kinds of strange sounds, but Yang Yong can't hear these annoying sounds with earplugs, and it is comfortable to sleep overnight. Another morning, I got out of the tent at about seven o'clock, and then washed and cleaned.
