Chapter 127: Xiong Zhen's Revenge
After I listened, I hurried to my father-in-law and said to my father-in-law in a panic: "Father-in-law, father-in-law, what should I do if the bear is here?" What do we do now? ”
The father-in-law closed his eyes and said, "What are you lying about? The soldiers will block the water to cover the earth, although this bear is powerful, but after all, he is still afraid of firearms, and when the bear is grabbing the door, you are at the window entrance, just put a foreign cannon outside. ”
I said, "Father-in-law, are we going to wait for Xiong Zhen to come in and then kill him with a cannon?" ”
The father-in-law said, "Who said they were going to kill it?" Xiong Zhen is not killed casually. ”
I said, "If you don't kill it, what kind of gun?" Shooting at the wall will not hurt Xiong Zhen. ”
The father-in-law said: "To fight with the bear, you can only outwit, not attack, just let the bear know the difficulty and retreat." Xiong Zhen knew that the people in our tunzi had muskets, so he would not dare to enter the tunzi in the future. ”
What the father-in-law said is still reasonable, everyone in the mountains knows that as long as this Xiong Zhen is on armor, he must not be provoked, unless he shoots in front of Xiong Zhen, otherwise he will not be able to kill Xiong Zhen at all, but will anger Xiong Zhen. I nodded, holding a cannon in my hand, waiting by the window, at this time the hunting dogs in the yard whined in fear, and clung to the door at the door, trying to enter the house, the hunting dogs fed at home, in normal times, even the black wolf in the old forest was not afraid, but now it was frightened and screamed, and the other families in the tunzi also raised hunting dogs, but there was no usual dog barking in the village.
At this time, the roar was getting closer and closer, and the bear came to the door, and I hurriedly put the foreign cannon on the window, ready to shoot at any time, and the bear came to the outside of the gate, first roaring, and then grabbing the door with his claws, and the sound of grabbing the door was very loud. My stepfather said to me from behind me, "Shoot, if you don't shoot, our door will be broken." ”
After I listened, I pulled the trigger at that time and shot directly, a loud sound, the bear outside the gate, scared out, and then the sound of escape, it seems that the bear is gone, and the roar at this time has gradually disappeared. Just when I thought I was leaving, suddenly the sound of foreign cannons sounded in the village again, and the father-in-law said, "Have you heard me, child?" The bear meat you sent has worked, and the hunters who ate the bear meat are helping you, and this bear will not stop for a while tonight, and will go door to door to look for bear cubs in the houses where you send bear meat. However, Xiong Zhen is a bear after all, and when it is frightened by foreign cannons, it does not dare to enter the tunzi again. ”
I nodded, thinking to myself that I would thank those hunters later. That night, the gunfire came and went, until dawn, the gunfire stopped, there was no roaring in the tunzi, I happily said to my father-in-law: "Father-in-law, the bear is gone, this time our tunzi is fine." ”
The father-in-law shook his head and said: "You don't know how powerful Xiong Zhen is, it won't give up easily, it must be hiding around Tunzi now, don't go to work in the field these days, the people in Tunzi, you go and say, let them not go out of Tunzi to work in the field these days, and then find a way to kill that Xiong Zhen when my eyes are better." ”
As soon as I heard what my father-in-law said, I hurried to the tunzi and went from house to house. Everyone else believes, only the old Zhao Tou of the cattle on the village does not believe it, the old Zhao Tou gave our family cattle in the early years, and the old Zhao Tou let us let him put the cattle as his own, the old Zhao Tou is not very reasonable, when he gave us cattle in the early years, he spoke very well to me, and since the family road fell in the middle, he has completely changed his appearance. I advised him not to graze the cattle, but he glared at me, saying that I, a landlord, was nosy, and that his cattle were not even afraid of tigers, and that there was nothing to fear from a bear.
He raised a very big bull, the horns are sharp, the strength is infinite, when ploughing the land, a cow is faster than two oxen to pull the plow, the old Zhao Tou regarded it as a treasure, the ox is very good, and the ox is almost called a brother. Because I recruited Xiong Zhen, Lao Zhao said that I was not angry, and repeatedly persuaded him, and others also helped me persuade him. Under the persuasion of everyone, Lao Zhao reluctantly agreed. When I finished going from house to house, I went back to my house, and at noon, suddenly someone was crying at the door, and when I heard it, my heart was full of chuckles, could it be that the bear is eating people? If that were the case, my sin would be great. So I hurriedly ran out, and when I looked outside the door, I saw Lao Zhaotou standing there covered in blood and crying loudly, and I saw that he was holding a blood-stained cow rope in his hand, and he was crying into tears.
I went up and asked what was going on, Lao Zhao rushed to my side like crazy, grabbed my neck by the collar, and scolded: "You landlord lamb, a bad seed, a dead star, it was you who led Xiong Zhen to Tunzi, pay for my cattle, compensate for my cattle." ”
After finishing speaking, I grabbed my clothes, and tore them there, I didn't move, let him beat and scold, the people in the tunzi couldn't stand it, so they went up and pulled away, and then someone said the matter, I just knew, it turned out that Lao Zhao Tou promised us not to go out to herd cattle on the surface, but I went out secretly as soon as I left, and I met Xiong Zhen.
After the bull found the bear, he used the horn to top the bear, but it didn't take two hits, the bull was caught by the bear with the bear's paw to catch a piece of meat, the old Zhao head to protect the cow heart, so he went up to lead the cow back to Tunzi, but at this time the bear had bitten the bull's neck, and he tied the rope of the cow, which was bitten off by the bear, but fortunately he was not injured, and the blood on the body was all cow blood.
Old Zhao Tou killed the bull, and after he fled back, he poured his anger on me, and he scolded angrily there, turning out the eighteen generations of our ancestors. I was also in a hot temper at the time, and when I returned home with a foreign cannon, I came out, and when Lao Zhao saw that I came out with a foreign cannon, he screamed and killed someone.
I glanced at Lao Zhao Tou and said: "Uncle Zhao, you were originally a tenant of our family, and your bull is still under our family's cow, and you have to compensate our family first, but I will talk about it today, I am not a bad breed, my cattle will not let you lose, I will pay you your life, and I will kill the bear." ”
After finishing speaking, I ran out of the tunzi with a foreign cannon, the place where Lao Zhaotou herded cattle was a hillside, I ran directly to the hillside, looking for the traces of the bear, on the hillside, I saw the cow that was disemboweled, beef and cow blood everywhere, bloody, emitting bursts of bloody smell. The bear is gone, but I know that the bear will not go far, it is hiding nearby.
I sat down in front of the dead cow, and then I remembered that I had run out of the house with a foreign cannon on impulse, and the foreign cannon was not yet loaded with gunpowder. So I took the horn of the gun, opened the horn, poured more than half of the gunpowder in the horn, usually hunting, this horn is enough to fight six or seven times, but this time to deal with the bear, must increase the amount of medicine.
After loading the gun, after stabbing it with iron bars, I loaded it with iron sand, and finally sealed it with paper, installed the artillery, and after everything was done, I got up and took the foreign cannon, and decided to take the initiative to find Xiong Zhen. Just as I was about to look for it, suddenly there was a roaring roar in the woods, and my heart was tight, the bear was coming, so I hurried to look in the direction of the roar, and saw the huge bear, standing there, making a deafening roar.
Xiong Zhen's body is huge, standing up much taller than people, after the bear roared, it ran towards me, its speed is very fast, I was extremely nervous at this time, my father-in-law said to me, hunting bears is not to fight other beasts, to deal with bears must be bold, because small cowardly people, no urine, Xiong Zhen came scared to pee, can not move Xiong Zhen at all, but was sat by Xiong Zheng to death.
The fur of the bear is like armor, if the distance is far, it can't be penetrated at all, so you have to wait for the bear to get closer, and then the foreign cannon can penetrate the fur of the bear, of course, the best way to hit the bear is to directly enter the bear's mouth, but that needs to be more courageous.
I held the foreign cannon and stared at Xiong Zhen, the speed of Xiong Zheng became faster and faster, and I became more and more nervous, at this time Xiong Zhen was already close to me, I said to myself, closer, closer. At this time, Xiong Zhen and I, at most, are three or four feet away, although Xiong Zhen is stupid, but sometimes suspicious, looking at me did not run, it did not pounce directly, but suddenly stood up, stood there like a person, staggered towards me, originally I wanted to take advantage of the Xiong Zhen open his mouth, with a foreign cannon directly into the bear's mouth, but now Xiong Zhen suddenly stood up, it stood up, much taller than me, at this time to hit the mouth, it is no longer enough, it seems that you can only hit the stomach, it is urgent, I shot Xiong Zhen in the stomach.
