245 Rin
The woods seem to have suddenly lost their ability to block the wind. The wind fell along the gaps in the trees, mixed with a large number of snowflakes.
The originally gray sky was completely dark at this time. Although the clouds are not as black as ink. However, due to the shade of the woods, the forest has completely darkened at this time.
"Prepare, it looks like they're running out of patience."
As he spoke, Ning Tian got out from under the blanket and stood up. There was another arrow in his hand, which quickly reached the bowstring.
Gao Meng opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, and obediently jumped into the snow with a hammer.
"Don't be so lifeless, okay? We're here to hunt, and now that the prey has appeared, you should be happy. Is this snow leopard worth anything? ”
Although his eyes had been staring around, he was now familiar with Gao Meng. You can tell from his speech and demeanor that he is thinking. No matter what, Ning Tian has to live much longer than him, and figuring out his thoughts, it is not a matter of being caught.
"You can do it. At this time, I still care about this. ”
Gao Meng is completely convinced.
"The value of this snow leopard is naturally very high. The most valuable ones are their pair of teeth and four. Of course, fur is also quite valuable, but it needs to be whole. If you are not a very old hunter, it is difficult to peel off the whole skin completely. ”
"However, while the value is high, it is difficult to deal with. It's hard to see them in those hunting grounds on the periphery. They usually only appear during snowstorms. Fortunately, they do not appear in pairs like some beasts, and they usually come together in pairs. Occasionally, it will appear alone. However, I have heard of all of this, and I have never actually seen it alive. This is the first time ......"
originally said that he swore an oath, but in the end, Gao Meng suddenly lost his confidence. It's no wonder that what I said seems to be very professional, and at the last glance, it turned out that I had heard about it. It's inevitable that there will be some embarrassment.
"Then it seems that we had good luck today, this time there are definitely more than two. Here! In giving you a short knife. Deal with this kind of fast-moving brute. It doesn't seem cost-effective to use a hammer. You...... Will it work, right? ”
As he spoke, the arrow in Ning Tian's hand had already flown out. With a wave of the bow's hand, a short knife flew towards Gao Meng, and when the hand was on the bowstring again, there was another arrow in his hand.
Gao Meng didn't say anything about the short knife, but he didn't mean to put down the hammer at all, his right hand held the short knife back, and the two hands together I hammered the cake, and the hammer instantly turned into a double-headed weapon.
"Whew!"
With a low roar, a snowflake floated out of the place where Ning Tian's arrow fell. A white figure sprang up. Screaming, he ran away farther away. After the snowflakes are splashed. Quickly absorbed by the snow. In the blink of an eye, there was no trace.
"It's over, this skin is useless!"
Ning Tian said with great regret.
Originally, he was going to praise Ning Tian's high meng, but the words that came to his mouth were choked back by Ning Tian's words, and the hammer in his hand sank. Almost didn't hold it.
What a coarse nerve this is, and I will pay attention to these things at this time!
Gao Meng thought wildly in his heart.
If the enemy does not move, I will not move; If the enemy moves, I will move first.
Ning Tian noticed the existence of the other party before, and chose to make a move as soon as possible. Although he talks about money, but in this situation, he also knows that it is not a joke. He wouldn't be so obsessed with money that he didn't know anything but money. For him now, it's really not a matter of money.
If it was before he came here. He might just be in it for the money. But now that he is foreign, he has not yet taken out a large number of good things in the ring. He really didn't pay attention to the things on this little snow leopard.
And then, the other party seems to know how powerful they are, and they no longer act rashly. The two sides confronted each other like this. Although one is in the light and the other is in the dark. But at this point there is no difference.
Ning Tian and Gao Meng were both controlling their breathing, avoiding the exhaled air from interfering with their vision, and their hands clenched their weapons, not daring to relax a little. Although holding this position for a long time has made their muscles start to ache a little, there is no intention of preparing to rest.
"Can you still hold on?"
A blizzard has arrived. The surrounding trees were shaking. The snow that had been on the canopy of the trees fell one after another under the swaying of the strong wind. The shade of the trees in the forest began to shake back and forth.
Gao Meng felt that his feet were already a little numb.
One position for a long time, no one can stand it. If it was forging, he wouldn't feel tired even if he stood for a few days and nights. But here and now, he has begun to be a little unable to support it.
"You can't wait?"
Ning Tian's tone was still very relaxed. There was not a hint of trembling in his hands when he drew the bow, and he should have been more tired than Gao Meng. His face began to heat up at this point. It can be seen from this that he is also a person, and he also knows how to be tired.
"If you can't wait, let's do it."
Fishing is about patience, and hunting is also a truth. If it was Ning Tian himself, he would definitely continue to boil it up, and he would wear out the other party's patience before he did it himself. But now, he has judged that Gao Meng is almost unable to support it.
After getting Ning Tian's permission, Gao Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief, stepped on the snow, and began to move towards the periphery.
At this time, Ning Tian also moved, but it was not his feet that moved, but his direction. The direction of the bow and arrow began to move with Gao Meng.
The two of them are now ready to fish, and the bait is Gao Meng. The fishing line was in Ning Tian's hand at this time.
"Huh~Huh~Huh~"
"Whoosh~Whoosh~Whoosh~"
Three winds sounded, and three figures rose out of thin air in the snow, and quickly swooped towards the height, although the figures were not majestic, but the speed was extremely fast, and they pounced in a blink of an eye.
Although their speed was fast, Ning Tian's speed was not satisfied. As if by magic, the three arrows shot out quickly, as if they were fired at the same time, but in different directions.
After three arrows, only one snow leopard pounced in front of Gao Meng, and Gao Meng picked up the hammer and hit the snow leopard's head accurately. With a muffled sound, the third snow leopard also landed.
A snow leopard was shot in the eye by Ning Tian, and was struggling on the ground at this time, blood spurting out of its eyes and mouth. The surrounding snow was stained red. The snow leopard was whining and its head was shaking violently, as if it wanted to shake off the arrow. But the more intense the struggle, the faster its blood flowed, and soon it stopped moving.
Another snow leopard was shot in the hind leg. It was obviously much more badly wounded than the first one, the arrows had already penetrated deep into its body, and one of its hind legs seemed to be no longer its own, and its three legs were constantly throbbing, as if trying to get out of here. But the tall dagger quickly put an end to this delusion.
In the end, the snow leopard was knocked to the ground by Gao Meng's hammer and never moved again. Although some blood came out of the mouth. But Gao Meng still took the short knife and cautiously went up to make up for it.
"What a waste! The skin is not worth much. ”
Ning Tian sighed. Said regrettably. But there was still no relaxation. The bow in his hand was still tight.
"Aren't there two skins left to sell?"
Although the situation just now was very dangerous, Gao Meng did not lose an inch. Finally, the key parts are avoided when the knife is repaired. In addition to the snow leopard with the arrow on the leg, the other two skins can still be peeled off intact.
"And?"
After confirming that the three snow leopards were dead, he looked at Ning Tian still holding his bow. Gao Meng asked in surprise. According to the information I heard, snow leopards generally act alone, and there are only two at most. Now around them, one ran and three died, looking at Ning Tian's posture, it seems that there is, did they win the jackpot?
"I don't know. However, even if there is. They shouldn't be reckless, either. Xuan'er, let's go down too. Peeling must be done while it is hot, and it will be difficult to peel when it is cold. ”
Finally, after looking around, Ning Tian put away his bow and arrows, and there was an extra skinning knife in his hand.
After getting to the bottom. Ning Tian skillfully began to peel the skin. Gao Meng was stunned for a moment, he really couldn't think of it, Ning Tian's forging level was already very strong, and they all said that the gods were fair to everyone, but it seemed that the gods seemed to have a preference for Ning Tian! Not only is the level of forging stronger than himself, but the level of fighting is stronger than himself, and the level of this skinning is stronger than that of professional hunters. Oh yes, and the level of cooking is better than yourself!
"This meat...... Is it delicious? ”
Peeled the skin, gouged out his teeth, and looked at the rest of the bare flesh, Ning Tian licked his tongue and asked Gao Meng.
“…… Haven't eaten it. ”
Gao Meng really hasn't eaten it. He is not a professional foodie, and he generally understands his concerns. So he knows the characteristics of snow leopards and their value, but he doesn't know whether their meat is good or not. He didn't even think he would run into a snow leopard. This time it was a complete accident.
"Then try it. Look at the meat quality is still good, animals with strong athletic ability, the meat quality is good. And the meat doesn't taste good. Let's just throw it in the car behind you. ”
After saying that, Ning Tian didn't know what to coat in the fur, put it away, and then disemboweled the corpses of the three snow leopards, threw away the internal organs, and threw the remaining meat on the climbing plow behind.
"You just ...... What to paint? ”
Shame on you! Gao Meng still asked.
"Huh? Salt! You're not, aren't you? Forget it, today will teach you a trick for free. Fur fur, there is fur and fur. This skin will inevitably have moisture, which is not easy to preserve. Putting salt can quickly send out the water, and it is easy to store in the future, saving insects. You were in a hurry to take me hunting, but you turned out to be a rookie! ”
“……”
Regarding Ning Tian's complaints, he didn't want to argue anymore. Because the more you say, the more slots you have. He finally knew what silence was golden.
"What shall we do now?"
Seeing Gao Meng's embarrassment, Gu Xuan'er asked. She didn't do this to help Gao Meng.
"Since they're not ready to take the initiative, let's keep going. If they like it, follow it. Brother Xiaomeng, are these materials enough for the money to buy things before? ”
"Enough...... That's enough. A pair of teeth is sufficient. ”
Talk less, talk less! Gao Meng warned himself in his heart over and over again.
The snow deer in the back finally came to his senses, and finally stood up again under Ning Tian's shouting.
"Roar!"
The three of them were about to get back on the plough and continue their journey. Suddenly, there was a dull roar. This roar is definitely not the cry of a snow leopard. Moreover, it sounds a bit distant, but because of the current environment, it is impossible to determine the direction of the sound source.
"It's hard to stubble!"
Listening to the surrounding sounds, Ning Tian judged that the few remaining snow leopards around had quickly evacuated. If the beast hadn't encountered a beast that was more ferocious than itself, it would certainly not have given up on its goal easily. Not to mention the fact that they also lost three companions.
"Roar! Bump~Bump~"
Accompanied by the roar of the beast, there was a sound of crashing, although this moan was not big, but it was unusually dull, I don't know what it hit.
And the sound was getting closer, and gradually, they seemed to hear someone's voice.
"How can there be anyone here?" Ning Tian asked. This is naturally a question of Gao Meng.
Gao Meng shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn't know.
Soon, they confirmed the direction of the sound source. Because a dark shadow has appeared in front of them.
It's a bear which is black all the time! And it's a black bear that has always been huge! The height of the limbs on the ground is more than one person.
But at this point, it seems to lose its sense of direction. It's bumping around in no direction. And the crash just now. It was it that hit the body of the tree.
Trees that were struck. All the snow left on the trees had fallen. When it hits a tree, the black bear changes direction, but eventually runs in their direction.
Behind the black bear, more than a dozen figures appeared. He wears white fur clothes all over. With various weapons in his hands, he is chasing after him.
Although these people have a huge advantage in numbers, the black bear should be injured at this time, but they don't dare to be careless at all, and have been keeping a certain distance from the black bear, those who hold melee weapons are just constantly roaring to interfere with the direction of the black bear's running. Only those with bows and arrows were constantly shooting.
Where the black bear passed, a red mark was drawn from the ground. Apparently it was also approaching the end of its crossbow, and it was getting harder and harder to run, after each impact. The speed will be slowed down by a point.
"Isn't this bullying?"
Ning Tian came out coldly with such a sentence, which made Gu Xuan'er also confused.
Could it be that Ning Tian meant that so many people were attacking a bear and were bullying people? Or is it that such a large group and so many people who seem to be too small are bullying 'people'?
Gu Xuan'er and Gao Meng hadn't figured this out yet. The previous bow and arrow appeared in Ning Tian's hand again, and after the arrow was hit. Shoot out instantly.
The black bear was running with the last of its strength at this time, and its front legs were struggling to lift and fall, and every time it was lifted, it was extremely difficult, as if there was no strength to lift it next time.
An arrow was shot right in the front of the bear's chest. With this arrow, Zigen sank into the black bear's chest, leaving only the colorful arrow feathers outside.
This time, the black bear's front legs did not lift again, as if the previous run had exhausted all his strength. The huge body fell to the ground with a bang. Driven by inertia, a distance of half a meter was drawn before stopping.
The hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen. The huge black bear here didn't completely die because of Ning Tian's arrow. However, at this point, it was lying on its stomach on the snow, no different from dead.
At this time, they finally saw that the bear was struggling back and forth because it was blind. Obviously, these people and the bear had already fought a terrible battle before. And what Ning Tian did was just to stick the last straw into the body of this black bear.
Life is worthy of respect. But it depends on the situation.
At this time, no one respects the life of this black bear. The people who had been chasing behind saw that the black bear had fallen to the ground at this time, and there was no longer an estimate, and those with melee weapons began to swarm up, constantly replenishing knives in the key parts of the black bear.
"Tyrannical creatures! Brother Xiaomeng, you said that this bear skin, if it is complete, is it more than the two snow leopard skins before? ”
“……”
Gao Meng hadn't figured out what Ning Tian's words meant before, when he suddenly heard Ning Tian's words again, and the whole person was completely speechless.
Is there anyone who has no discipline more than Ning Tian?
The people on the other side didn't seem to see them at all, and after confirming the black bear's death, these people began to work together to divide the prey.
There is a lot of strength in numbers, although this sentence was not obvious just now, but now, when the battle is over, it is especially obvious. Several people worked together, and soon the black bear's skin was peeled off. Under the flying of knives and axes, soon the flesh of the black bear was broken into countless pieces. Obviously, these people are also very skilled.
"Hey! Yours! ”
After finishing his work, a person beckoned to Ning Tian, pointed to a piece on the ground and said.
"It's not bad, these people haven't forgotten about me yet."
With that, Ning Tian walked over with such a swagger. Gao Meng wanted to say something, but Ning Tian just left, and he had no choice but to follow, but the weapon in his hand was still clenched.
The danger factor for the people who appear here is too high.
"You also have a share of the hunt just now, and this piece of meat is yours."
The man who had called him before pointed to the piece of meat on the ground again.
Most of them had long beards, and the beards were very thick, as if they were wearing a black scarf on their mouths. As a result of their breathing, a layer of ice formed on their beards, and when they spoke, the ice cubes kept shaking, like wind chimes, but the difference was that they didn't ring.
ps:
I remembered when I was a kid and went to the woods to follow my father to harvest. It was so cold! But the heart is so warm! Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation.
