Chapter 39: Hunting (2)

Weida still has a sense of accomplishment, enjoying the compliments of Simon Jr. and Paul; is also because the performance of the five uniques is strong enough, of course he has a bright face.

The Five Absolute are actually not very afraid of gunfire now, especially now that they are still following Wei Da, they also have enough confidence. And after Wei Da killed the rabbit, he didn't even need Wei Da's greeting at all, except for the four dogs who stayed next to the camp, Nandi had already rushed out directly.

"Really great guys, Wei, if you have a puppy, remember to give me one, they are really smart, and I believe that their pedigree can also make their offspring have a very good performance." The old hunter Paul saw Nandi returning with a hare in his mouth, and he really wished he had such a clever hound.

"No problem, I guess it's okay." Wei Da is still very happy, although these five dogs were bought together, but there is no blood relationship between them, which can also ensure that the breeding between the five must also be guaranteed.

The performance of the five uniques is very powerful, although they are only half-grown puppies, but they are lively, strong, and most importantly, smart and humane. Although the cowboys on the ranch were a little hurt by not being trusted by them, it didn't prevent the five from getting a lot of praise.

Shepherd dogs really need to be prepared in the pasture, they can take good care of the herd, and they are also able to defend against enemies when necessary; Wei Da also knows a little, there are still some wild wolves and the like here, plus wild rabbits are also a hazard to the pasture, they like to burrow, eat grass roots, and shepherd dogs can also clean up these pests a little.

"They like to be fully cooked, man!" Wei Da smiled and stopped the rabbit meat that the silent Tim prepared for Wujue, these guys usually eat some meat, but under Wei Da's cultivation and care, these guys really don't have much interest in half-cooked meat.

"I've found out why they don't like me, what I usually like is three matures." Tim's words made several people laugh, although he was the first batch of cowboys to come, but Tim was usually more silent, and suddenly such a cold humor was still very effective; The cowboys on the ranch know that the five must only recognize Weida, and this is not because of the food.

"Let's take a break, I think we're going into the valley soon. Guys, although this is a relatively desolate valley, there is also some prey here. I think we'll need to be vigilant for the next two days, and I'm sure it will make our hunt even more successful. Paul took out a piece of potato, tore open the tin foil wrapped around the potato, and handed it to Wujue, who was squatting aside.

"Paul, my hopes are all in you, you are an experienced hunter, I have heard that many newcomers can get a lot of results from their first hunt, I don't want to be a joke." Wei Da laughed and joked, and got along with these cheerful and optimistic cowboys, Wei Da also felt very happy.

"You've got the catch, in my hands!" Little Simon was cleaning up the hare, and teasing Wei Da with the rabbit meat made everyone laugh.

In fact, Weida and his party were running near the legendary Big Bend National Park, which is located in southwest Texas and is the largest national park in Texas. Although it can be basically divided into three districts, it is a remnant of the Rocky Mountains, so in simple terms, Big Bend National Park is an ingenious combination of desert, oasis and high mountains.

However, this time Wei Da and his party were not particularly well prepared, so it can also be said that they stopped at a shallow level, they would not go to the mountains too much, and they did not plan to hunt large beasts such as bears, and even wild boars were a little difficult in the eyes of the group.

The group gradually entered the valley, although more of them looked more desolate, but occasionally they were able to find some small prey.

"That's Virginia deer, and this is a bunch of nasty bad guys!" Through the binoculars, he saw a herd of deer not far ahead, and Paul was also explaining to the rookie Weida.

This deer's ability to adapt to the environment is very strong, the reproduction rate and the survival rate of the cubs are also very high, the appetite of this deer is also very large, generally a deer eats more than a meal of grass and trees in a year, it is very normal, they are indeed able to bring a lot of losses to pastures and farms.

Raccoons, Virginia deer, Texas bobtails, coyotes, etc., are all hunted by hunters, and of course because these guys can make good fireplace specimens. As for wild boars and the like, such a big problem also needs to be hunted for Texans, but they don't seem to be handsome specimens.

"It's a pity that there are no handsome horned guys." Wei Da shook his head with some regret, he was also prepared during this time, Virginia deer, that is, white-tailed deer, can be hunted, but although there are male deer in this group of deer, the antlers are too small, which does not seem to have much killing value. Maybe the venison Weida is very good, but Weida is not here to find ingredients this time.

In fact, some prey was found one after another along the way, but what pronghorned antelope, bobcat, that is, lynx and the like, Wei Da and his party really didn't have much interest. The only group of red deer found is not good prey either.

The ground here is relatively empty, which can be regarded as a very good shooting location, and it is difficult to have too many occlusions in front of you, which can not only ensure the hit rate, but also avoid accidents. But the luck of a group of people does not look very good, which is commonly known as the point back.

The goal of the group was mainly to run for the red deer, and it was really a very conspicuous thing to think about hanging a dozen or so antlers on the wall. And in such a wilderness, it can really make people feel happy. It's just that I encountered a group of deer, either even five or six forked 'fawns', or some damage to the antlers such as a fight, in short, the deer that can be seen now really does not exist.

"Wei, your riding skills look really good." A few people were looking for prey and chatting.

"Paul, don't underestimate me, I'll ride a horse every day. And the fat boy is also very good, it works well with me. Wei Da smiled and patted the fat boy's neck; Although Fatboy is a trained adult horse, it is still a good mount after this time.

In such a mountainous area, many times it is necessary to pay attention to your feet; Wei Da basically didn't tighten the reins, he chose to trust the fat boy more, he knew that the horse would definitely be better off choosing the safe path than taking risks at this time. Although Weida's riding skills have made a lot of progress, in the final analysis, they are certainly not as good as these cowboys who grew up on horseback; But Wei Da has such a magical inheritance as "Shennong Sutra", and Wei Da during this period of time is also constantly studying "Shennong Sutra", which can be regarded as making great progress.

"Shennong Jing", as the name suggests; Shennong tasted all the herbs and had a very good understanding of many plants. Growing grains also makes a great contribution to the development of agriculture. Although Shennong has also made great contributions to some other cultures, the creator of the Shennong Sutra is in respect of the ancestors of China, and this magical book is also the "Shennong Sutra", because this book is the inheritance of agriculture and animal husbandry. There are also some records of animals in books, and there are also animal habits, storage methods, and so on.

And Wei Da, who is patient, has been constantly studying during this time, and the existence of this so-called inheritor of Shennong is indeed very powerful; Basically, those who fly in the sky, run on the ground, and swim in the water are all involved. Although there are more domestic flora and fauna, there are even some records of extinct animals; This also made Wei Da know that the descendants of Shennong are a figure who lived in a very early history, and it can be said that this book is the essence of thousands of years of agriculture and animal husbandry in China that have not been passed down by later generations.

Wei Da is not completely familiar with horses like fat boys, dogs like Wujue, and of course, some cattle and sheep from his own pasture, but Wei Da can guarantee that he can get along well with them, and Wei Da can make them grow better. This is also the main reason why the Five Absolute are very affectionate to Wei Da, not only because Wei Da is their master, but also because Wei Da has completely gained their trust. Wei Da, who tasted the sweetness, was not only happy because he made money by selling some 'superficial' techniques, but also because Wei Da was looking forward to more surprises that this magical scripture could bring to him.
