Chapter 17: The Wolf in the Mountains

The origin of Lin Jianguo's name is also as everyone thinks, born at the time of the establishment of New China. The man who grew up in the mountains since he was a child has far less experience in life between mountains, forests and wilderness than Li Mo and Han Bing. According to Uncle Lin (Jianguo), Li Mo and the others knew that the man in front of them, except for the darker-skinned man, was a hunting family. In order to escape the impact of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the ancestors dragged their families to hide in this mountain, and it has been more than 100 years now.

Born in the mountains and growing up in the mountains, the greatest wish of these people is also to die in the mountains. Therefore, Uncle Lin's feelings for this mountain are extremely deep. Like the catastrophe and famine that affected the whole country in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the entire land of China, not to mention thousands of miles of bones, there are countless people who have not witnessed the beauty of this world and disappeared into the world in such a hurry. Uncle Lin and others in the mountains, but because they can hunt food and pick wild fruits and vegetables, they are fortunate to survive, and they are illiterate They regard all this as a gift, but they love the mountains more and more in their hearts.

Maybe it's the reason why a person is lonely at home, Lin Jianguo doesn't care that the two seventeen-year-old young people sitting in front of him are just two young people, talking endlessly about the strange things in the mountains and telling their feelings for the mountains. After the reform and opening up, with the deepening of people's understanding of nature, the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Wild Animals was promulgated in 1988, which was formulated to protect and rescue endangered wild animals, protect, develop and rationally utilize wild resources, and maintain ecological balance. Lin Jianguo's hunting family has finally ended.

"I now sometimes go up to the mountains to see and hunt a hare or pheasant or something, but hunting is no longer my main life." Lin Jianguo said a lot in one breath, and it wasn't until he drank a pot of water that he realized that there were only two young people on the other side, and it seemed that they were still students. The black face was faintly a faint red with embarrassment. "But I don't think anyone knows this mountain better than I do, except for my father, who has passed away." When Lin Jianguo talked about his father, there was a look of remembrance on his face.

"Uncle Lin, is it dangerous for us to go up the mountain now?" Because Li Mo was already familiar with Lin Jianguo, he let go of the reserve in his heart and couldn't wait to ask. It has been an hour since I came to Jingou Village, and now it is about three o'clock in the afternoon, although the daylight hours are relatively long in summer, if you accidentally miss the time in the mountains, anything can happen after dark.

"If you don't go into the mountains, there is no danger to you, there are no large carnivores in this area now, and even wolves I have only seen more than ten years ago. However, the most dangerous things in the mountains are not tigers and wolves, but all kinds of poisons, among which various poisonous snakes are the most dangerous. Lin Jianguo explained in detail how to avoid danger in the mountains, or how to save himself when encountering general danger.

Although Lin Jianguo's methods are all local methods, they are valuable experiences that have been passed down from generation to generation.

"Your guns aren't of much use up the hill, I'll show you my guy." Lin Jianguo looked at Li Mo's * on his lap and shook his head, turned around and went to the attic, and walked down with a gun in a while.

"This is the guy I use, and I've been with me for more than ten years!" Lin Jianguo stroked the shotgun and sighed with memories on his face.

Li Mo and Han Bing stepped forward, their eyes fixed on the gun, a double-barreled shotgun. The black barrel seemed to have a smug of evil gushing out of it. The butt of the brown gun made of fine wood is polished and shiny because it has been used many times.

Lin Jianguo looked at the envy and obsession in the eyes of the two, and smiled secretly in his heart, sure enough, they are still children, and they both like guns.

"I'm fine today, I'll accompany you into the mountains later, with it, we won't be afraid of a wild boar." Lin Jianguo gestured for the shotgun in his hand, and said to Li Mo and Han Bing in a sonorous voice.

"Really?" Li Mo and Han Bing were pleasantly surprised at the same time, with Lin Jianguo, an old hunter, there is basically no need to worry about safety, in fact, after listening to Lin Jianguo talk about the dangers in the mountains, Li Mo secretly regretted that he decided to go to the mountain to hunt without thinking about it clearly.

"Of course! I can't lie to you two children. Lin Jiancheng replied with an affirmative smile. I prepare my things first, and then I go up the mountain. ”

"Li Mo, what do you think we can hit today?" Han Bing asked Li Mo with excitement on his face.

Now after all, he is still young, Li Mo sighed, thinking about the mature and stable man in the future, and the current child-like Han Bing, it is simply a world of difference!

"A little bit of attention should be paid to a stream like this, it is better not to stay in such a place for a long time, because in this kind of weather, many animals come to the river to drink water and do not leave the water source too far when they rest. What's more important is that there may be mountain locusts in this kind of place, if you are stuck by that thing, you will suck enough blood, not to mention the pain, and you will be scared to watch! "After entering the mountain for more than half an hour, Li Mo and Han Bing had no sense of direction here, and they were gloomy all around. There were tall trees all around, and if it weren't for the sunlight shining through the leaves, the two of them would have thought it would have been dark.

Lin Jianguo opened the way in front, Han Bing was in the middle, and Li Mo followed at the end with * on his back. Occasionally, he touched a small backpack behind him with his right hand, which contained bullets in addition to a large bottle of water, and only by being next to the gun could Li Mo find a sense of security in this kind of place.

Lin Jianguo, who was introducing some precautions in front, suddenly stopped, and his eyes motioned for the two of them not to make a sound. Li Mo and Han Bing thought that Lin Jianguo had found some prey. Excited. The two quietly hid behind a big tree, watching Lin Jianguo jump up a small hill like a monkey, staring at a small jungle on the right. Li Mo and Han Bing's sight was very good, and they could see that Lin Jianguo was squatting, leaning against a big rock, but his brows were furrowed tightly.

"What happened?" Han Bing also felt that something was wrong, and asked Li Mo next to him in a low voice.

Li Mo shook his head to show that he didn't know, gently took off the * on his back, loaded a bullet, and stared at the front nervously, not even knowing the nervous sweat on his palms.

"Whew!" A strange cry interrupted the calm in the mountain forest, some small animals ran around desperately, far away from the vicinity of the small jungle, Li Mo even saw a gray hare jump out, and disappeared into a bush in a blink of an eye.

The sound of a wolf!

The three of them thought at the same time. Although Li Mo and Han Bing had never heard the real wolf howl, they had seen a lot of it from TV, and they naturally searched for the wolf's voice in their minds; And Lin Jianguo knows even better, the wolves he has seen with his own eyes can't be counted with one hand. At this moment, the three of them didn't know how there was a wolf here, but at this time, it was useless to think about it, and how to get out of danger was the most important thing.

After observing for a while, Lin Jianguo found that this wolf was a lone wolf, although it was dangerous, it was much better than a group of wolves, if it weren't for taking care of Li Mo and Han Bing, he himself had many ways to avoid the range of wolves.

Lin Jianguo quietly came to Li Mo and the others, and said softly: "I'll go over and take a look, you just stay here, it's best to climb to the tree later, there will be no danger for a while." With that, he nimbly walked through the woods and disappeared.
