Chapter 20: Into the Forest
For the whole day of the next day, Hu Yang was making ample preparations for the upcoming adventure to Panier Forest.
Some food, fresh water that can be stored for a long time is essential. In addition, Jace also brought his family's collection of field equipment, including a crossbow made in China.
Since Hu Yang does not have a gun license, it is illegal in Australia if he carries a gun without permission.
Moreover, Australia is also very strict about handling gun licenses, and it is not as lax as Europe or the Americas. If you want to have a firearms licence in Australia, you must have an appropriate identity.
For example, security officers, hunters, or other special professionals. It is simply impossible for ordinary civilians to apply for a gun license.
After everything was ready, Hu Yang personally cooked a Chinese meal, invited the Jaces and Adelaide to eat and drink.
In the evening, as soon as Hu Yang sent the Jaces away, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
"Alice, what's the matter with calling so late?" At this time, Hu Yang was very responsible in his heart, especially after the embarrassing incident that night, every time he talked to Alice, he had a feeling of being a thief.
"Yang, do you have time for these two days? I've spoken to the auction house and they're interested in the dagger and want to talk to you about it! Alice said in a cold voice.
"Uh...... I've got something to do tomorrow, and I'm afraid I won't be able to come back anytime soon. What, is the other party in a hurry? Hu Yang frowned slightly, and said with some embarrassment.
"Of course not, the time is entirely up to you!" Alice whispered.
Although she didn't ask Hu Yang's whereabouts, Hu Yang still heard on the phone that Alice seemed to have something to say, but she stopped talking.
Now Hu Yang is very weak-hearted, he naturally won't take the initiative to ask, but just said with a smile: "Did the other party say how much that sword can be sold for?" ”
"I'm sorry, the auction house didn't say the price directly, but I can tell they're interested!" Alice's tone was always very cold, like a cold-blooded animal without feelings.
"Alright then, I'll contact you when I get back!" Hu Yang said a little disappointed in his heart, and hung up the phone.
However, he didn't know that Alice, who was on the other end of the phone at this time, looked at the mobile phone with a busy sound with a dull gaze, biting her lip tightly, and a layer of mist was faintly rolling in her eyes.
After a long time, Alice finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the sofa with her whole body paralyzed, and muttered in a low voice: "This stupid person, don't you take the initiative to ask if I don't take the initiative to ask?" Or do you Chinese people like to make things clear? ”
……
The date agreed with Quake came quickly, almost in the blink of an eye.
This morning, Quake arrives at Lin's ranch in Jace's pickup truck.
At this time, Hu Yang was already waiting here in gear.
"Hey, Yang, are you ready?" Quake got out of the car and said with a smile.
"Of course, you can go at any time!" Hu Yang nodded.
"Let's get in the car, I can't wait any longer, it's like those underground treasures and endless riches are beckoning to us!" Quake looked at the forest not far away, and said with anticipation in his eyes.
Hu Yang nodded, didn't say anything, turned around and walked towards Jace's pickup.
However, at this moment, the little white wolf suddenly roared from the wooden house, rushed out quickly, and kept circling around Hu Yang.
"Hey, Yang, you actually have a wolf, it's unbelievable, if you take this little guy to the town and sell it, it should be a good price!" When Quake saw the little white wolf, his eyes were full of the shadow of money.
The little white wolf is not an ordinary animal, he has been with Hu Yang for so long, and he has mastered some human language.
When Quake said this, he saw that the little white wolf's red eyes suddenly became tyrannical and bloodthirsty, and he made a low 'woo' sound from his mouth at Quake, and his teeth were grinning as if he would attack at any time.
Seeing this scene, Hu Yang shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile, shook his head and said, "Quake, I believe you are a good hunter, but please don't provoke this little guy, otherwise you will regret it!" ”
"Oh well, I'll try not to provoke it!" Although Quake said this, his eyes were full of playfulness, and he didn't take this little white wolf seriously.
In fact, after such a long time, the little white wolf is no longer as small as it was at the beginning. To be precise, it is now not much different from the usual adult black shellfish and golden retriever.
Don't look at it when it's usually by Hu Yang's side, it looks like a good dog. In fact, the little white wolf will often run alone into the Panir Forest for hours of hunting.
Perhaps because the little white wolf has gradually become an adult, every time it comes back from hunting, it will bring some different harvests.
Most of the time, there will be one or two fat hares. But occasionally, the little white wolf will carry a whole deer in its mouth and drag it back to the pasture.
Hu Yang won't eat these prey, but he usually cooks the prey after some scolding and feeds it all to the little white wolf for his own enjoyment. Although this little guy often looks at Hu Yang with a begging look, while eating.
Until one time, the little white wolf actually hunted a baby kangaroo and returned to the pasture.
This time, Hu Yang was not lightly angry. Although kangaroos are already infested in Australia, he doesn't want the little white wolf to touch these animals.
In his mind, the kangaroo is a cute animal that jumps around and has a big pocket.
After being angrily reprimanded by Hu Yang, the little white wolf is also very memorable, and since then its hunting targets are basically on those hares, and even its favorite deer is trying not to move if it can.
"Yang, Quake, have you two talked enough? It's time for us to go! At this moment, Jace in the car became a little impatient and urged loudly.
"Alright, it's time for us to go!" Hu Yang nodded and said.
Immediately, the two walked towards the pickup truck together. But the little white wolf followed closely behind, as if he also wanted to go to the Panil Forest with Hu Yang.
"Yang, you're not going to take this little thing with you, are you? But that's fine, when we run out of food, we can use it to satisfy our hunger! Opening the car door, Quake, who was just about to sit in, saw the little white wolf staring at the back at a glance, and said teasingly.
"It's okay, if you can eat it, I have no objection!" Hu Yang smiled indifferently and said indifferently.
The little white wolf's 'hometown' is itself in the Paniel Forest. Before this, Hu Yang had already made plans and was ready to take the little white wolf to hunt for treasures.
Although the little white wolf had been remembered by Quake, Hu Yang did not have the slightest worry. If the little white wolf can really be hunted so easily, he will not rest assured that the little white wolf will go to the forest to 'hunt' by himself. You know, Panir Forest is not just a hunter like Quake.
When the two of them sat in the pickup truck, the car started slowly.
The place they were going to was a forest dozens of kilometers away from the Lin Clan's Ranch, where it was the real entrance to the Panier Forest.
On this road, there are very few vehicles, let alone people. But some kangaroos, still see a few, their size is generally about 1.8 meters, of course, there are a few more than two meters.
These kangaroos are not afraid of life, and even chase after them for some distance when they see a vehicle passing by.
Quake raised his shotgun several times to shoot the kangaroos, but was stopped by Hu Yang on the pretext of saving bullets.
Three hours later, a large dense forest finally appeared in front of me. From a distance, each tree at the very edge is more than 5 meters tall.
"Yang, I can only send you here, five days later, I will come here on time to pick you up, I hope you can be lucky and get those underground treasures!" Jace parked the pickup truck at the edge of the forest, and just as Hu Yang and Quake were about to get out of the car, Jace said slowly.
"Jace, I'm sorry for you!" Hu Yang nodded gratefully.
Quake didn't say anything, just grabbed a handful of ** in his hand, swaggered alone, and walked towards the forest.
The little white wolf stared at Quake viciously with a pair of red eyes, very unfriendly.
The pickup that saw Jace return the same way it came, gradually disappearing from sight.
At this moment, Quake's shout suddenly came not far away: "Hey, Yang, don't bother with that fat man, we should be on our way!" ”
"I'm coming!" Hu Yang was startled, quickly turned around, and ran after Quake into the forest.
The area of this forest is huge, and as soon as you walk in, you feel a very eerie feeling. Hu Yang carefully followed Quake with a crossbow arrow, and at the same time quietly released his thoughts, attached them to those plants, and observed all the movements around him.
The little white wolf seemed very excited at this time, always keeping his head down, and constantly sniffing around on the ground. If there is a sudden shaking of the grass, regardless of whether there is something or not, the little white wolf will run over at the first time and pounce on the grass.
"Yang, in the forest, you should always pay attention not to your feet, but to the top of your head. Because those poisonous snakes and poisonous insects will lurk in places you can't imagine, and when you are at the most lax, they will launch deadly attacks on you! Just as Hu Yang was paying full attention to the surroundings under his feet, Quake's voice suddenly came from the front.
"Vipers?" Hu Yang was startled, raised his head suddenly, and subconsciously released his thoughts at the same time.
As a result, on a branch not far ahead, there was a two-meter-long one, and the whole body was tightly wrapped around the branch, and a fist-sized head was spitting out letters, while staring at Hu Yang and Quake with bright eyes.
