29. Chapter 29: The Lynx
Cheng Xianglong quickly switched to a shotgun.
It's a five-shot shot. As a civilian shotgun, this gun is not small. Due to the large impact area, the effective range is shorter than that of single-barreled or double-barreled shotguns, so it is suitable for shooting rabbits, pheasants and other small prey.
Cheng Xianglong pinched a handful of sweat. Will the five-shot combo be able to deal with the monsters that appear next? He wasn't sure, but he had to give it a try.
Except for him, no one in this group would listen to Yi Chen, and Yi Chen couldn't reveal his identity in front of so many people.
Only he can cooperate with Yi Chen's actions, and he must do something beautiful!
"Watch to the right!" Yi Chen reminded.
Cheng Xianglong held his breath and picked up the gun.
A black shadow flashed quickly, Cheng Xianglong's eyes lit up, and he subconsciously pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The sudden gunfire startled all the members of the second group, and Zhang Yumin was about to scold, when he suddenly noticed that something was wrong.
The wind blew through the mountains, and the yellow leaves fell one after another, making a dull hissing sound. As an experienced hunter, Zhang Yumin knows that there is danger nearby!
"Why did you shoot just now?" Bazi Mei asked with his head in his hands. He followed not far behind Yi Chen and Cheng Xianglong. As a newcomer, he always felt a little estranged from the old employees.
"I see something." Cheng Xianglong's palms were sweaty.
That shot missed just now, and that thing ran away, and the speed was really fast!
"Everyone's concentrated!" Zhang Yumin shouted. Now he couldn't tell where those things were, and huddles were the safest way to defend.
The second group immediately obeyed the order, and the people were shoulder to shoulder, back to back, with weapons in hand, vigilantly staring in all directions, leaving no dead ends.
"What are you three still doing in a daze?!" Zhang Yumin found that the three new employees did not move, and there was still some distance from the crowd, so he was so angry that he smoked.
emphasized listening to the conductor so many times, and the result was still playing the piano to the cow!
"Damn it, if you want to die, just die!" Zhang Yumin snorted coldly and stopped caring about them.
Yi Chen has his own plans. He sensed that the three-headed monster was circling nearby, as if he was ready to pounce on him at any moment.
After being infected, this mountain beast has somewhat retained its previous predatory habits. They don't rush up like ordinary zombies, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one.
This is the hardest part. Yi Chen couldn't accurately predict their next move, so he had to spend it before they could attack.
However, one thing will not change. A place with a lot of people is the place that attracts them the most.
Now that Zhang Yumin is holding those people to defend together, Yi Chen has concluded that the target of the three-headed monster must be them!
Even if he and Cheng Xianglong and Bazimei don't seem to have any effective protective measures now, like the three fools, they are safer on the contrary.
Cheng Xianglong followed Yi Chen's actions, and he had no worries. And the eight-figure eyebrows are confused and don't know what to do.
"Shouldn't we go over and be with the big army?" The figure-eight eyebrows proposed.
"Shh Cheng Xianglong told him to shut up.
At this time, he had to concentrate, what if Yi Chen suddenly gave some instructions and didn't hear them?
"Ten o'clock!" Yi Chen shouted.
Bang!
Cheng Xianglong was hit by this shot, and a black animal the size of an earth dog fell from mid-air, splashing a string of black blood.
Zhang Yumin's eyes are fast, one shot makes up for it, and he gets a headshot!
"It's an infected bobcat, and this thing used to be a national second-class protected animal." Zhang Yumin put down the gun and said.
Cunning and cautious, the lynx often uses grass, bushes, stones, trees, etc. as shelter when catching prey, and waits in ambushes where the prey often passes.
They are extremely patient and can lie quietly in one place for several days and nights, only to rush out and capture their prey when it approaches. They are the best at tiptoeing closer, diving closer, and lunging at them unawares.
Encountering an infected bobcat, Zhang Yumin felt a little tricky. They are small, fast, and have old habits, which make them more difficult to deal with.
The point is that if there is one head, there must be a group.
Bang bang! Cheng Xianglong fired two shots in a row and hit the target again, although there was no headshot, it was enough to impress.
Yi Chen only told him the general direction, and the specific time of the shooting was determined by himself. Sure enough, his gun sense is very good.
The three infected bobcats were quickly cleaned up.
"You're doing well today, I'll tell the manager when I get back! Your benefits are indispensable! Zhang Yumin gave Cheng Xianglong a thumbs up.
Cheng Xianglong smiled facelessly, and recognized the credit. If it weren't for Yi Chen's reminder, he wouldn't have been able to react like that, but Yi Chen didn't want to expose anything, so that's it.
"Why did you just say it's dangerous? Did you see or hear something? Zhang Yumin remembered Yi Chen's fierce reaction at the beginning, and asked suspiciously.
In his opinion, Yi Chen's hunting experience could not be richer than his own, and he was a one-eyed dragon, so his eyesight was definitely not much better.
Such a half-grown child actually found out about the situation a few minutes earlier than him, which made him extremely unhappy.
"I'm a person with a strong sixth sense." Yi Chen didn't know what reason to talk about, so he simply said it mysteriously.
Sixth sense...... That's intuition, right?
A good hunter requires a lot of experience and wild intuition, and Yi Chen's statement Zhang Yumin will be skeptical.
Intuition is also indescribable, so there's no need to delve into it.
After some observation, Zhang Yumin concluded that there was no more danger and commanded: "Keep going!" ”
It's not about knowing it's dangerous and you don't stop there. Manager Xu Hao gave the four team leaders hard targets: the number of healthy wild animals handed over every day must not be less than 10, and the casualty rate must not be higher than 20%, otherwise they will be removed from the position of team leader.
Zhang Yumin finally climbed to this management position, and got slightly more food a day than ordinary employees. The second group has performed well in the past few days, and the manager Xu Hao has promised to double his salary! At this juncture, we must complete the task and meet the standards!
He knew the mountain well, and he knew exactly what creatures had been on it. He believes that as long as everyone can follow his commands, there will be no problem.
Of course, there are fewer and fewer wild animals that can be caught, and the difficulty is increasing. He led his team further into the mountains.
"Let's go to the cave halfway up the mountain." Zhang Yumin said. Yesterday they caught two litters of pheasants nearby, and the harvest was not small.
"Questions?" Cheng Xianglong asked Yi Chen quietly.
"There are some small animals over there that are not infected, and there are quite a few of them." Yi Chen sensed it.
Zhang Yumin's decision was right. It's just that no one knows if everything will go smoothly now.
Even Yi Chen didn't know if anything would happen next.
