Volume 1 The Coming Storm Chapter 23 The Boar King

Uncle Xiaomeng was moved by what he said, and couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, "It's really that easy?" ”

"That's not it," Xiao Gang straightened his chest, "I caught it when I was a teenager, don't you say it's easy?" ”

Uncle Xiaomeng thought about it, gritted his teeth, "That's okay, let's go!" ”

After making up his mind, Xiao Gang picked up the shotgun, Uncle Xiao Meng picked up an axe to chop wood, and the two of them put on their leather jackets and hats, and stepped on the snow into the mountain.

A silver moon hung in the sky, and the snow in the forest reflected a silvery white light, and Xiao Gang and Uncle Xiaomeng could see the situation in the forest almost without a flashlight. It's winter, but it's hardly windy today. There was silence in the mountain forest, except for the sound of two people stepping on the snow and "creaking".

Xiao Gang walked in front with a gun, and Uncle Xiao Meng followed behind, although I don't know how many times I have been to this forest during the day, but it was the first time to come at night, everything that was originally familiar also gave people a strange feeling at this time.

As Xiao Gang walked, he looked down from time to time to look at the traces under the tree, or looked up at the situation on the tree. Xiao Meng's uncle didn't know why, so he could only follow behind.

Before they knew it, the two of them had gone far away, and Xiao Meng's uncle noticed that they had gone into the depths of the mountain forest at this time, and this place was in the daytime, and they had never been here. He stretched out his hand and pulled Xiao Gang, "Hey, it's too far, there are fierce beasts in this deep mountain forest, in case we meet a black blind man, the two of us have a gun, and it is estimated that we can't deal with it." ”

Listening to Uncle Xiao Meng's words, Xiao Gang immediately laughed, "I said brother, you are also a person who has been in the mountains, why don't you have any common sense, can there be bears in this winter?" Didn't it squat for the winter a long time ago! ”

"That's right," Uncle Xiaomeng laughed too, "I'm really a little confused." ”

"I don't think you're confused," Xiao Gang turned his head and continued walking, "I think you're a little nervous?" It's okay, don't be nervous, I don't know how many times I've gone hunting with my grandfather, and even the black blind man has encountered it, I'm not good, you can rest assured. I'll tell you......"

In the middle of speaking, Xiao Gang suddenly stopped, and Xiao Meng's uncle hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Gang made a silent gesture and stretched out his hand to point under the tree, Uncle Xiao Meng looked carefully in the direction he pointed, but he didn't see anything, "What's there?" ”

"Footprints!" Xiao Gang pointed again, "Pheasant footprints, there must be one on this tree!" ”

Xiao Meng's uncle looked up, "It's a big night, this pheasant squatting on a tree can't see clearly, how can you fight?" ”

Xiao Gang smiled, took out a bottle of wine from his arms, and half a piece of dumpling, Xiao Gang broke off a piece from it, crushed it, poured some wine on it, rubbed it a few times and spilled it under the tree.

Uncle Xiaomeng asked curiously, "What are you doing here?" ”

Xiao Gang motioned for him to step back, and the two of them retreated until they hid behind a nearby tree. Xiao Gang told him softly: "The grain with the smell of wine has a great attraction to the pheasant, you wait, it will come down to eat in a while." ”

So, the two of them hid behind the tree and waited patiently. Sure enough, a few minutes later, there were several sounds of wings flapping from the tree, followed by a dark shadow flying down from the tree. Uncle Xiao Meng was excited when he saw it.

At this time, Xiao Gang also slowly raised his gun and aimed at the pheasant flying down from the tree. A few seconds later, only a "bang" was heard, and a ball of fire erupted from the muzzle. Uncle Xiaomeng hurried to see the pheasant under the tree, and saw that the black shadow fluttered a few times and then fell to the ground and did not move. He shouted excitedly: "Hit!" Hit! ”

Xiao Gang also laughed, stood up with a gun, and the two of them ran closer to take a look, and sure enough, they found a fat pheasant lying on the snow.

Xiao Meng's uncle patted Xiao Gang's shoulder, "Yes!" Not bad! This is going down, we can be happy at night......" Before he finished speaking, the smile on Xiao Gang's face suddenly froze, Uncle Xiao Meng wanted to ask, but Xiao Gang waved his hand and made a gesture not to speak.

Xiao Meng's uncle immediately shut up, and Xiao Gang stood for a while, then turned his head sharply to look in the direction behind him. Both of them were stooped and half-prostrate in the snow. Xiao Meng's uncle was strange in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask. He followed Xiao Gang's gaze, and there was a large area of withered yellow bushes. He looked at it for a while and didn't seem to see anything abnormal, and he didn't quite understand why Xiao Gang was so nervous.

Xiao Meng's uncle was about to open his mouth to ask, when suddenly he heard a rustling sound from the bushes. His heart lifted at once, and it was clear that there was something hidden behind the low tree.

Xiao Gang couldn't care about the pheasants on the ground at this time, he reloaded the iron sand gunpowder, raised his gun and aimed at the bushes, Xiao Meng's uncle asked softly, "What is that?" ”

"I don't know," Xiao Gang replied softly, "maybe it's a blind bear who woke up suddenly." ”

"How is that possible!" Xiao Meng's uncle got up and came to Xiao Gang's side, "Didn't you say that the blind bears are all squatting for the winter?" ”

"Not necessarily, sometimes the blind bear does not have enough energy reserves in his body before hibernation, and he will wake up hungry halfway, and then he will come out to find food." When Xiao Gang spoke, he kept looking over there, not daring to relax at all.

"Blind bear with hungry eyes?!" Uncle Xiaomeng suddenly became even more nervous, "Isn't this the end of the calf!" ”

The two of them stared at the front of them, and suddenly they saw the bushes sway, and a large guy rushed out of it.

"Holy!" Xiao Meng's uncle squinted his eyes and looked at it, but he didn't see it clearly, so he couldn't help but scold, "This thing can't really be a blind bear, right?" ”

"No," Xiao Gang's voice trembled slightly, "It's a fucking boar!" ”

"Such a big one!" Speaking of wild boars, it is not uncommon in the local area, but this one is different, its back is almost as high as an adult's chest, and its size is almost the size of two black bears. Xiao Meng's uncle has lived for so many years, and he has never seen such a giant wild boar.

Xiao Gang held the gun but didn't dare to pull the trigger easily, "It must have been the shot we shot at the pheasant just now that alarmed this guy." ”

"What, what to do?" Although Xiao Meng's uncle has never hunted, there has always been a saying in the Northeast: one pig, two bears and three tigers. This wild boar is ranked ahead of bears and tigers, which shows how fierce it is.

The huge wild boar made a "roar" sound, the sharp fangs on the side of the mouth made people cold, and the mane on the neck was like a steel needle, and the roots were upside down, which was a manifestation of the wild boar's anger, especially this lonely male wild boar was more ferocious!

Xiao Gang lowered his voice, "I'll shoot it in the head for a while, and this shot will definitely not be able to put it down." Then the two of us ran in two directions, and went up the tree as soon as possible, as long as we held on until dawn, and when the others came to see that we were not in the house, they would definitely come out to look for us, and then we would be saved. ”

Xiao Meng's uncle swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Okay!" ”

As soon as his words fell, Xiao Gang shot when he heard a "bang". Xiao Meng's uncle didn't dare to hesitate, turned around and ran, and suddenly there was a roar of a wild boar behind him, he didn't dare to look back at all, raised his eyes and saw a big tree in front of him, he tried his best to climb it without thinking about it, this may be the fastest time he climbed a tree in his life.

Xiao Meng's uncle sat on the branch and looked back. The wild boar has rough skin and thick flesh, and the shot just now really has no effect on it.

Once the wild boar is like a small tank, it is enough to choke if it hits a person without dying, and its fangs are extremely lethal. However, although the boar is fierce, its brain is relatively stupid and inflexible.

The wild boar ran a few steps, and when he saw the two men fleeing in two directions, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. This is also Xiao Gang's purpose, to buy a little time for the two of them to escape.

The wild boar did not rush in the direction of Uncle Xiao Meng, but chased it in the direction of Xiao Gang. However, at this time, Xiao Gang had already climbed the tree. Xiao Meng's uncle breathed a sigh of relief, and now he can only wait for dawn, but fortunately there is no wind tonight. So he wrapped his clothes tightly and sat down curled up on a branch.

When the wild boar saw the two of them going up the tree, he was helpless for a while, and turned in a manic circle under the tree, and his nose couldn't stop making a "roar" sound.

Seeing that the wild boar had nothing to do, Xiao Meng's uncle put his mind at ease, but instead watched the wild boar below with great interest, "Xiao Gang, this wild boar is really a tendon, it won't wander around here until dawn, right?" ”

Xiao Gang's voice came from another tree, "Probably not, it will be angry and leave." ”

But as soon as Xiao Gang's words were finished, the wild boar under the tree suddenly stopped. It stopped for a moment, then walked under the tree where Xiao Gang was. The boar sniffed a few times, then slowly began to retreat.

Just when Xiao Meng's uncle thought that the wild boar was about to leave, the big guy suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the tree where Xiao Gang was. I don't know if it's the reason why he fired a shot just now, the wild boar is so persevering.

Hearing only the sound of "bang", the wild boar hit the tree where Xiao Gang lived. The huge body and weight make the impact of the wild boar no less powerful than a small bulldozer. Xiao Gang was hit by this on a tree, and it was definitely uncomfortable. Xiao Meng's uncle clearly heard Xiao Gang scolding fiercely.

After the boar struck, it did not stop, but immediately hit the second, third...... What's even more troublesome is that the tree where Xiao Gang is located is not very thick, with a diameter of less than 30 centimeters.

Xiao Meng's uncle looked at the scene below worriedly, and as the tree made a crisp "click" sound, his heart trembled. After thinking for a moment, Xiao Meng's uncle pulled out the axe from his waist.
