Chapter 60: Teaching Ah Mei

The moon shines in the sky, sprinkling endless clear light to shroud the primeval forest, the dense canopy of the trees is draped in a layer of soft silver veil, quiet and peaceful, the woods are dim, a bonfire is dancing, dancing like a fire spirit, dispersing the surrounding night, adding a bit of life to this forest.

Next to the bonfire, Yang is sitting on a piece of wood, next to the cut hardwood and fine vines, the hardwood is very straight, the thickness of the egg, the length is different, with a mountain knife to sharpen the end of the wooden stick, there are already several sharpened wooden sticks under the feet, the action is very fast, Ah Mei watched from the side, and asked curiously: "Brother, what are you doing here to cut so many wooden sticks and vines?" Tell me about it. ”

"It's for traps." Yang Zheng kept moving in his hands, and said in a low voice: "Those drug dealers are like wild wolves, when the wild wolves attack, they will not attack from one place, but scatter the encirclement, sneak attack, and we can't prevent it, we don't have enough manpower, so we can only set traps to hunt and kill." ”

"What kind of trap?" Ah Mei asked curiously.

"After a while, you will understand that there are not enough tools for wooden thorns, lassoes, etc., otherwise you can dig a dirt pit." Yang Zheng said in a low voice.

"Okay, can I do something for you?" Ah Mei said.

"No, pay attention, learn first, maybe you can use it in the future." Yang Zheng said in a low voice, his expression focused.

Half an hour later, Yang Zheng cut dozens of wooden thorns, of different sizes and lengths, tied them with vines, and said to Ah Mei: "You help me hold these things, let's start arranging." He got up and looked around.

"Okay, what do we do?" Ah Mei agreed.

"See the woods ahead? Where do you think they will rush from? Yang Zheng asked rhetorically.

Ah Mei looked at it for a while, shook her head incomprehensibly, and whispered uncertainly: "It's hard to say, I feel like they can rush up from any place." ”

"No, there is a pattern in this, Abba once said, whether it is a human or an animal, they will subconsciously choose a path suitable for themselves, such as a place with few bushes, such as a place where the ground seems to be solid, such as a place with a relatively open vision, find this route, and then arrange traps according to the surrounding environment, you can succeed." Yang Zheng said seriously.

"Hey, you seem to have a point." Ah Mei said as she picked up a torch and walked forward.

Soon, Ah Mei stopped, observed the surrounding woods, pointed to a direction and whispered to Yang Zheng who came over: "They will rush down from the hillside, this should be the only way." ”

Yang Zheng looked at the surrounding terrain and said with a smile: "That's right, what you said is indeed the only way to go, I realized it so quickly, Ah Mei is the best, Ah Ge will teach you another trick, cunning beasts will not be easily fooled, they will be suspicious, they will be unconventional, and the road that seems to be necessary may not be taken." ”

"What do you mean?" Ah Mei asked with some incomprehension.

"Remember the cliff? We got a vine and threw it down, creating the illusion of evacuating from the cliff, the drug dealers were not fooled, but chased after them, indicating that there are experienced people among them, who will attack after dawn, and these experienced people will walk in front to explore the way, and it is possible to abandon the necessary road and take an inconspicuous route, so the trap must be set according to the opponent's situation. Yang Zheng explained seriously.

"Is it so complicated, and all the beasts so cunning?" Ah Mei said in surprise.

"Don't underestimate the cunning of wild beasts, especially the wild wolves, they are very shrewd, not to mention that the real enemy we have to deal with is drug dealers, many of them are experienced in the jungle, if Uncle Aga is in more trouble, Uncle Aga's hunting experience is similar to that of Abba, it is not easy to deal with." Yang Zheng said in a low voice.

"Got it, let's get started." Ah Mei suddenly responded.

"Abba taught me that the trap should be a combination of virtual and real, not according to the convention, there can be no rules to follow, this is the only way, it is said that you can't arrange traps in the face of an experienced veteran like Uncle Aga, but Uncle Aga will also think so, so we do the opposite, but lay a trap on the road that must be passed, maybe it can have an unexpected effect, of course, in order to confuse them to take the road that must be taken, we can make some camouflage on the inconspicuous route next to them, so that they have wrong judgments." Yang Zheng explained.

"What kind of disguise?" Ah Mei asked in surprise.

"For example, leaving footprints and breaking a few small branches to create the illusion of leaving traces when traps are placed nearby, so that they can't guess whether there are traps or not, this is a combination of virtual and real." Yang Zheng explained.

"Abba is so powerful, why do you think so carefully?" Ah Mei said in surprise.

"Abba said that these were taught by the person he had saved, saying that it was the skills of the army, and that person was injured for three days, and Abba accompanied him for three days, idle and bored, exchanging hunting skills with each other, and the other party taught Abba these, Abba taught me, and taught you first." Yang Zheng explained.

"I see, I'll study hard." Ah Mei hurriedly agreed.

"Do you see the gentle slope ahead? Once the drug dealers come, they will definitely come from the hillside, and the speed will be a little fast, and we can get some thin rattan on the ground as triplines, and the tripwires will be connected to the bullet wooden spikes, and when they kick the triplines, the wooden spikes will eject and shoot forward. Yang Zheng explained.

"How do you make a bouncy wooden thorn?" Ah Mei asked suspiciously.

"It's very simple, just like a bow and arrow that is pulled open, hook it with a vine and don't move, the vine is connected to the tripwire, and when the tripline moves, the trigger hook on the vine will loosen, and the wooden thorn fixed on it will shoot out." Yang Zheng explained, seeing that Ah Mei didn't understand very well, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, just watch me do it again." ”

Ah Mei nodded, carefully observed, Yang Zheng observed the surroundings of the woods, quickly determined the position, bent into a bow with a strong toughness of wood, and made a trap, the so-called trigger hook is two pieces of wood cut out of two holes, hooked up and down, just like two hooks bite together, left and right will be loosened when touched lightly, but the upper and lower hooks are very tight, this is the core part of the mechanism, if the trigger hook is not released, the trap will not be triggered.

Yang Zheng made a trap and covered it with leaves, it was not installed, the front was slightly higher, once triggered, the wooden thorns could shoot out on their backs, Yang Zheng looked at Ah Mei and asked, "How is it, do you understand?" ”

"I understand, it's not complicated." Ah Mei nodded excitedly, eager to try.

"Alright, let's do it together, get ready and tell me to check, we have to lay enough traps before dark to survive." Yang Zheng admonished.

"Got it, what else to do besides this trap?" Ah Mei asked curiously.
