Chapter 233: Unexpected Bear

"I feel okay, take a rest now, otherwise I will definitely have to trek through mountains and rivers tomorrow." It's not for pleasure when you come out to hunt, looking at Wang Ye who is walking with his feet skimmed, Wei Da is a little funny; Although this Wang Ye still occasionally rides a horse, he still hasn't used it for a long time to ride a horse, so the inner thighs must be a little uncomfortable now.

"It's okay, buddy, I'm not so delicate, it's trivial!" Wang Ye carried a big backpack, and his and Wei Da's task was to set up the tent, while Wei Da's father and Old Fox were tasked with making dinner; Everyone divides labor and cooperates, which will definitely greatly improve efficiency.

After setting up the tent, Wei Da played with the two dogs, Xiyu and Beiqi, for a while; Since it is hunting in the mountains, it is still necessary to have some hunting dogs, which can increase the sales of hunting and better ensure safety. Wei Da felt that these dogs he raised were very powerful, not to mention smart, it must be very easy to single out one or two wild wolves.

And Wei Da also brought out the two bisons of the Hercules King and the Great Sage of Heaven this time, the body length of these two guys has reached almost three meters, and the shoulder height is about to reach two meters; The bison was originally very large, and with the fact that these two guys lived well on the ranch, there was no doubt that they were even stronger and taller. Both of these are about a ton in weight, arguably the largest mammal in North America. The Hercules King and the Great Sage of Peace can camel things, and these two powerful guys exist, and I believe that some fierce beasts also need to be more fearful.

As for mounts, they are naturally all horsebacks; Although the mountain trail may be more difficult to walk. However, a few people also carefully studied the route before setting off, so even if there are some roads that cannot be ridden, they can still lead the horses to walk through. If you want to go deep into the mountains. This definitely requires a mount, otherwise it is absolutely unrealistic to rely on just two legs, and it will make people walk and collapse.

On the first day into the mountain, it was all in a hurry; Fortunately, although it is already October, the weather is not very hot, so you only need to pay attention at night now, so you still don't have to worry about catching a cold. Although it was now completely dark. But in the depths of such a forest, there is such a bonfire, plus a little food. This is also unique, and Wei Da finds it very interesting right now.

"I think it's going to take us another half a day to get to our hunting area, and I think you've probably seen it as we go deeper into the mountains. We also need to be careful. Because there may be beasts near us. We took turns keeping vigil at night, and now that we are deep in the mountains, we need to be cautious, especially on nights like these, when the wild beasts are most active. Old Fox reminded that although Hercules and the West Poison are very powerful, they also need someone to keep vigil.

"Well, I think it's divided into three shifts. I, Wang Ye. Dad, follow my father-in-law. It doesn't matter if the two of us are younger, my father's words are also to follow my father-in-law to talk about it. Weida felt that the vigil was necessary. It's just that hard errands still require young people to take more responsibility; Wei Da also knows that although his physical fitness is very good, he can't be reckless at this time, and he can take turns to rest so as to ensure that everyone's spirit is sufficient.

Wei Da and Wang Ye went back to the tent to sleep first, and Wei Da's father and old Fox kept vigil first; It's not that Wei Da and Wang Ye are not filial, but it's actually better for them to sleep first, because being woken up in the middle of sleep is the most headache. Wei Da was going to keep the night of the second round, and it was also the most uncomfortable trip; Not long after I fell asleep, I was woken up, and then I stayed for two hours to wake up Wang Ye and go back to sleep, which must be much worse than staying up all night and sleeping soundly on the first shift and getting up early when I slept enough.

The first night in the mountains was still very peaceful, and Wei Da was idle, anyway, he had prepared a lot of dry firewood; So hang the small pot and start boiling some water, then skewer the lamb. Although it is a vigil, you can't just be in a daze, you should find something to do. Looking at the sleeping West Poison and the Hercules King, Wei Da was also more relieved, because these guys were actually very alert, and they should be relatively safe now.

Stretching out of the tent, Wei Da felt that he was still a little bedridden, and he had woken up early, but he just didn't want to get up. Although it is hunting, there is no need to go to bed early and get up early, Wei Da knows that after the father and they get up, they will let Wang Ye go to sleep in the cage, so everyone's spirit is still very strong.

?“ We need to travel for about three hours to get to our scheduled camp. Rest and adjust, we just warmed up today, but we're going to get serious soon. "Old Fox has the style of a captain, but also because he has more experience, so along the way Old Fox has been constantly arranging and commanding, he is also doing very well, although it has only been out for a day, but the road is smooth and fast, which has to be said that there is a reason why Old Fox is very good at arranging.

When Wei Da and Wang Ye got up, they were already able to start eating breakfast directly, and a few people simply rested before leaving the camp; It will take a morning to get to the predetermined hunting spot, and this is the time to continue the effort. Wei Da beckoned to the Hercules King and the West Poison, these little guys seemed to be very active in the mountains, and these guys running around were still a little restless.

The Rocky Mountains are made up of a number of small mountain ranges known as the "backbone" of North America, with the main mountain range from British Columbia, Canada plus to New Mexico in the southwestern United States; Although there is little vegetation in some places, mountains such as the Rocky Mountains are naturally not short of forests, and the abundance of flora and fauna here is also famous; Black bears, grizzly bears, brown bears, mountain lions, and wolves are the representative large mammals that can be found among the rolling ridges, as well as goats and deer.

Heading towards the depths of the forest, although the road is relatively difficult, it is not an inch; Just lead the horse. Take a walk as a way to exercise. Fortunately, with the Hercules King and the Great Sage of Peace, these two guys are carrying luggage, so Wei Da and they can also travel lightly. Wei Da also felt that he would definitely bring Hercules with him when he hunted in the future.

A few people did not stop at all, and now they also entered the alpine meadows and subalpine forests; This is one of their hunting areas, where there are still a few caribou, mule deer, and Virginia deer, which are also hunting. As for the pronghorn antelope, jack rabbit, tassel grouse, spruce grouse, blue grouse, etc., there are still quite a few.

"Dad, you and my father-in-law will go to hunt a few rabbits or pheasants and come back, and Wang Ye and I will set up camp here." Although I brought a lot of supplies, since it was hunting. Then you can't always eat the food you bring, you still need to enjoy the deliciousness; Let Dad and Old Fox go hunting first, and Wei Da and Wang Ye, the young people, will automatically undertake the physical work.

"Isn't it? There was movement so soon. There should still be a lot of rabbits here, and it is still cost-effective to go into the old forest. "Still camping, but the old Fox who has gone hunting, their guns rang out, and Wang Ye was amazed. On the way, in fact, with the entry into the high mountains. You also saw some animals. There are definitely more animals here than at the edge of the forest, and it was worth it for a few people to spend more than a day walking here.

Wei Da felt that Dad and they should have opened, because there was no roar with the northern beggars in the past, which meant that they had not encountered any fierce beasts. It's better to hurry now, wait for a hare or something like that, and now it's past lunch, so you can't continue to grind and delay. Fill your stomach and take a good rest, and then get a little bit of a sense of what's going on around you. That's what Weida needs to do.

"Didn't I hear you firing guns a long time ago? Empty guns, huh? Seeing Dad and Fox carrying two or three rabbits and pheasants, Weida was a little curious; In fact, it is said that they should have come back a long time ago, but this time they came back relatively late, and these three or two small prey should have been taken down a long time ago.

"Your father-in-law took me to look for a bear, as if he saw the bear's footprints." Wei Da was stunned when he heard his father's words, it is certain that there are bears in the Rocky Mountains, but compared to Canada or Alaska, there are still relatively few bears in the mountains in Texas, which is a big thing, a great thing.

"Bear? Is it really a bear? Well, I haven't eaten a bear's paw yet, so maybe I'll be able to open the meat now. Wang Ye, who was boiling water, became excited, bear, this is a good thing, a real good thing; If you hit such a beast, it will be so exciting, even if you only hit this bear and go home immediately, then everyone can say that you can return with a lot of fun.

"It seems that the footprints are a little old, and the old Fox took me to look for it a little, but I didn't see any more traces. It shouldn't go too far, though, so we'll be careful then, and if we do find it, we might as well find it. "Because of the unexpected surprise, the passing people are very interested, although for several people may be tacit, hunting skills are not very mature, but everyone should take care of each other and want to wrestle with a bear.

Wei Da was also very excited and looking forward to it, saying that he had not yet encountered a real beast in the process of hunting; Now it's a thrilling opportunity to meet the king-level wild bears in the forest. To be honest, Wei Da didn't think that the wild bears and the guys in the zoo were the same virtue, and he didn't think that the wild bears here would be so kind or easy to handle.

Because of the existence of this wild bear, the hunting plan of several people also needs to be slightly adjusted; Although a few people had to make changes because of this guy, it was a good thing, and a few people were happy to make these interesting changes. Now they still have to continue to observe their surroundings, but more importantly, they are now seriously looking for the bears, which is the real big thing.

Although the intention of a few people was not to come out to hunt bears, but now that they have really encountered it, then they will definitely not miss it, this is the best prey. Anyway, a few people are in high spirits now, they all feel that they have hit a big luck, and this hunting trip will be full of fun because of this wild bear.

"Dad, come with me to look for it in the afternoon, Wang Ye, you follow my father-in-law." Wei Da felt that this kind of grouping was very good, the strength of the two teams was relatively average, and they were able to ensure that they were taken care of as well as possible; Although bear hunting is exciting, it is also very dangerous, so several people must consider safety.

Not knowing where the bear was now, several people split into two squads and now began to expand the search area. (To be continued......)
