Chapter 394: Entering the Treasure Mountain and Empty-handed
"It's not fake, we haven't been to the place yet, the animals in Africa generally come out in the morning and evening, mainly to drink, so we need to find a water source, and there will be a large number of animals there. Even if there are animals here, they are hidden in the bushes and it is difficult to return them. "Yerong is not as impatient as Hong Tao, although he is not as good as the Maasai hunters who have lived here for generations, but he still understands much more than Hong Tao.
The convoy traveled for nearly an hour, and the scenery around it was still the same, Hong Tao felt as if he was spinning in circles, the only thing that could be seen was that the convoy was climbing the hill at this time, and there was a gentle high ground in front of it.
"Don't scream for a while, you'd better let go of the gun and cover your mouth." When Hong Tao's car was about to come to the top of the high slope, the Dutch urinary sitting in front turned around and said something inexplicable to Hong Tao.
"Holy! ......" Just when Hong Tao thought that he had heard the wrong word, the off-road vehicle lowered forward and finally turned over the high slope, and the scene in front of him really made Hong Tao almost scream!
Looking down from the top of this 100-meter-high slope, there is still an endless prairie in front of you, and the acacia forest is like a skin disease on the grassland, one in the east and one in the west, black on the grassland. About a kilometer away, a large river passed through the grassland, and on both sides of the river, countless animals seemed to suddenly appear here, lying on their stomachs or lying in the grass and bushes, so many that the flood waves, who thought they were quite knowledgeable, were a little overwhelmed.
The closest to Hong Tao and them were dozens of animals like cattle and deer, they were standing at the bottom of the high slope, and when they saw a few behemoths suddenly appear on the top of the high slope, they didn't seem particularly panicked, they were still eating the grass on the ground in place, until Hong Tao and their figures got down from the off-road vehicle, and these dozens of animals began to walk slowly and logically like a little farther away.
"It's Ritchie antelope, and there's a lot of it. Don't be in a hurry to fight first, if the gun goes off, the other more precious prey will run away. Holland urinated down the gun that Hong Tao had already raised, and explained to him the reason, and the guns of the fat boss and the boss Liu were also suppressed by their hunting guides.
"Hong Tao, where is this hunting, this is slaughter, don't ask how much prey your uncle can hit, it depends on how many bullets you can give your uncle." The fat boss was so excited that his fat was shaking, and the 4 Chinese present were in addition to the documentary. When have you ever seen so many animals in the same place at the same time.
"Are those lions?" Hong Tao saw 7 or 8 lions lying in the grass through the telescope, and there were many animals nearby, but they had no intention of rushing up to kill them.
"Well, but we can't fight, the male lion is not old enough." Holland urinated and put down the binoculars and neatly rejected Hong Tao's suggestion.
"There are giraffes over there, and a giraffe can be made without a lion!" Hong Tao looked like Grandma Liu had just entered the Grand View Garden at this time, and it was good to look at it.
"Giraffes are not hunting animals, and they can't be hunted." Dutch didn't even lift the telescope this time.
"Hong Tao. What are you muttering there? What are you waiting for, let's do it! The fat boss couldn't help it, and pointed to the large animal in front of him and asked.
"Fatty, be quiet. Before I came to the United States, I was trained in vain, and I had to listen to the hunters who could fight and what I couldn't. Suddenly I saw such a large area of live wild animals, and I was not afraid of people. I'm a little embarrassed to do it, it's a bit of a win. At this time, Boss Liu had already put the gun on the ground, holding his camera in his hand.
"Isn't this a cheap bone! Too much reluctant to fight. Less money to play around! The fat boss obviously didn't understand Boss Liu's mood.
"Did you find it?" Holland is asking Hoffmann and Shaw Klee.
"Didn't find it...... It's a pity! Hoffman just shook his head, Shokje's tone a little regretful.
"Tao, let your photographer hurry up and shoot, we can only stay for 10 minutes, and then move on to the next hunting spot, there is no prey we need here, we have to hurry." Holland turned his head and said to Hong Tao.
"Ahh There are so many animals that few can fight!!? Hong Tao was a little unhappy, and he even suspected that the Dutchman was communiquéing personal vendetta and was taking revenge on himself for pouring them to drink the night before.
"Our main targets are old male lions, male bison, male rhinoceros, male leopards and male elephants, but unfortunately there are none here, and as for other animals, we can meet the same anytime and anywhere, there is no need to spoil such a peaceful atmosphere here, what do you think?" Hoffman, who hadn't spoken much, finally spoke, and said it so reasonably, so that Hong Tao couldn't say anything.
"It's okay, I agree with Hoffman's suggestion, it's not interesting to shoot these sheep and cows, people don't run away when they see you, are you embarrassed to shoot people with guns in their mouths? Let's go, fatty. After listening to Hong Tao's translation, Boss Liu didn't have any opinions, but the fat boss clicked his small eyes, looking at the group of animals were reluctant, and it was estimated that those animals had become a plate of steaming food in his eyes at this time.
"Can I get closer?" Wei Han, who was carrying the camera, had not been idle for a moment since the car stopped, standing for a while, kneeling for a while, and finding N multiple angles to shoot the big river in front of him and these wild animals on the grassland by the river.
"Go ahead, don't go past that wood, hurry up." Hoffman pointed to a small bush only a dozen meters away from the high slope and said to Wei Han.
Wei Han, who had received permission, ran down the high slope as soon as he slipped away, and at the same time, his right eye did not leave the camera, and his feet did not slow down in the slightest. For Wei Han's ability, Hong Tao was dumbfounded, it seems that it is not easy to do a good job in every line, just this skill of running without looking at the road, I don't know how many times I have to fall to practice.
Ten minutes later, the hunting team waited for the bus on time, slowly retreated from the high slope, drove back for more than ten minutes according to the original road, turned left again, and continued to drive to the next hunting point. As for where this hunting spot is and how many hunting spots there are, Hong Tao is not even interested in asking, because it is in vain to ask, the scenery here is similar everywhere, and there are no obvious geographical coordinates, even if it is marked on the map, Hong Tao is not sure that he can identify the correct direction.
"Hey, look, it's a herd of giraffes!"
"Hey, look, it's a herd of bison!"
"Hey, look, those two hippos are fighting!"
"Hey, look, Tornado!"
Along the way, the convoy encountered all kinds of animals from time to time, which made Wei Han, who had been standing in the carriage with half of his body exposed, let out various exclamations from time to time. At first, Hong Tao also leaned on the window and exclaimed together, but after seeing too many animals, he was not so excited.
The animals are like the domestic animals we see when we pass by a village on a road trip in our country, they are not afraid of people and cars at all, and on several occasions the convoy passes through a herd of wildebeest or antelope, and the most they can do is avoid the convoy a little, and then do what they should do.
The only thing that interested Hong Tao and Wei Han was the tornadoes that kept appearing on the grassland, and in a place that was calm just now, it would suddenly conjure up a spiraling air current, and then roll up all kinds of weeds, leaves, and dust on the ground, rise to a height of tens or hundreds of meters, and then suddenly disappear, as if there was a monster there making waves.
"These small tornadoes appear thousands of times a day, and compared to tornadoes in the interior of the United States, they are basically not lethal, at most they blow you with dirt." When Hong Tao asked if the tornadoes would pose a danger, Holland did not show any concern.
The convoy drove for another hour or so, stopping next to an acacia forest, this time the movement was relatively large, and five black men got off the pickup truck at the back, all holding a machete, and then divided into two teams, one team to cut the bushes on the left, one team to cut the bushes on the right, and went straight to the woods to kill a passage.
