Chapter 24: Deer Hunting

The clouds were overcast, and there was a light rain in the sky, which fell on the leaves, on the petals, and then slowly slid down, dripping onto the ground, and converging into small puddles. In this jungle, Licorice is dressed in camouflage clothing, holding a gun and aiming at a place with red eyes, lying motionless next to the roots of a high slope, and the dense grass becomes the best camouflage.

"I'm a little grass, inconspicuous, I'm a stone, the wind can't blow it......" Licorice always maintained this posture without moving, and at the same time kept hypnotizing himself in his heart, at this time it had been three months, the weather in August was very cold, and now the light rain continued, and he couldn't hide from the rain, he couldn't move, it was even colder, and the raindrops dripped from the leaves, fell on the scope of the 98K rifle, and then turned into many smaller droplets that scattered and splashed, and many splashed on the eyes of licorice, Confused, half-asleep, the licorice, which was already cold and sleepy, gradually woke up a little because of the cold water droplets. Licorice has been lying here for nearly two days, and the place that was aimed at in front of it is one of the places where a deer often appears, but it has become particularly tired because of the need to concentrate at all times, and it has fallen asleep several times before because of exhaustion, and it is these times, maybe the deer has passed, so until now Licorice has not been able to meet it again, it is foreseeable that if he falls asleep again this time, this training task is estimated to be unable to be completed, because the licorice is almost to the limit, If you miss it again, you will have to choose to abandon the mission and return, otherwise you will have to starve to death or freeze to death here. In fact, if you want to hunt deer, there are many methods, and they are all easier and simpler than this, but this is training, not actual combat, and the purpose of training is to constantly increase the difficulty to improve you.

Slowly opening his chapped lips and catching some splashed water droplets, licorice forcibly cheered up, it should be soon, at this time, the deer should be coming.

Suddenly, a rabbit jumped on Licorice's back, and Licorice's nerves tensed instantly, and then slowly relaxed, disguising itself.

"I am a little grass, inconspicuous, I am a stone, the wind does not blow...... I don't have any presence, they can't detect me, the rain that has been going on all day washes away my breath, they can't smell me, I don't make any movement, even my heart rate is slowing down, yes, I'm going to slow down my breathing now, I can't alarm it, and it's going to be part of my disguise. Licorice continued to hypnotize herself and began to slow her breathing.

I don't know how long it took, but the rabbit on the back of licorice never left here, let alone returned to its nest. Licorice was a little helpless, but at this time, a fast-moving figure in front of him attracted all of Licorice's attention, and the deer really came. Through the gaps between the trees, Licorice saw the deer, and slowly moved the muzzle of the gun towards it with all her attention, moving the muzzle of the gun without forgetting her disguise.

"Slowly, slowly, don't rush, I've already aimed at it, it's impossible for it to escape my bullet, I need to choose the angle of shooting now, a little slower, can't make too much movement, otherwise the rabbit on my back will definitely react, then the deer will definitely run away, I can't stand up and chase the deer in this state and shoot a second shot, I only have one chance." Licorice slowly aimed at the deer's head, hesitated for a moment, moved the muzzle down a little, aimed at the neck, thought about it, a bullet in the neck was not enough to make it fatal immediately, moved the muzzle down a little, aimed at the deer's lungs, the distance here is about five hundred meters, measured the trajectory, adjusted it again, and then pulled the trigger with his finger to shoot!

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, echoing through the trees, and the rabbit standing behind the licorice was immediately shocked and jumped away, and the deer was also shot at the same time, and then quickly turned around and tried to escape, but before he could run a few steps, he fell to the ground due to the lack of oxygen supply due to strenuous exercise and a bullet in his lungs, and then died quickly.

After the shooting, Licorice was not able to check his results immediately, because he couldn't get up, he kept this position here for two consecutive days, and it rained for a day, Licorice's whole body was stiff, and the reason why he was able to shoot smoothly was mainly because he had deliberately moved his fingers before to prevent his fingers from stiffening due to insufficient blood supply.

Turning over with difficulty, lying on his back beside the roots, licorice looked up at the sparse sky through the sparse leaves, reached out and touched the glove bag for a while, took out a signal flare, raised his hand to the sky and pulled the fuse, but there was no movement.

"Junk products, ruin my youth, harm my money! A little water was scrapped, what a scum! It is estimated that it was produced from the east, otherwise the quality would not be so bad, and those overseers should have been sent to Siberia for mining! Angrily throwing the flare in his hand aside, Licorice thought angrily in his heart.

After lying down for a while, he kept pressing and pinching all over his body, and finally was able to stand up normally, swaying to the position where the deer had been shot just now, looking at the blood stains on the ground that were about to be washed away by the rain, and walking forward with the faint blood stains, Licorice saw the deer, which was lying motionless on the ground, and the bullet holes in its lungs were still blistering with blood, but there were fewer and fewer of them, and the temperature of the blood was getting lower and lower, and it was cold.

Licorice quietly looked at the trophy in front of him, thinking about how to bring it back, with his current physical condition, it was a dream to carry it back, should he throw it away? Looking at this deer, I thought of all kinds of delicious dishes about venison, and Licorice quickly threw the idea of discarding it out of his mind, what a joke, I finally got a few good meals, how could I give up like this, and if I can't finish eating it, I can send it to Vincent and them urgently, which is also a rare benefit.

Licorice broke off a few branches, sharpened it with a dagger and took out the rope from the backpack, tied the wooden frame and tied the deer with great difficulty, and after everything was done, half an hour had passed, and Licorice was eating the few pieces of chocolate that were left, while dragging the loot and slowly looking for the way back.

"After becoming a sniper, it seems that the treatment has improved, and although the chocolate I was given recently is still packaged in the same tin box as before, it is distributed with other supplies, but the taste is getting more and more fragrant, and the texture is more silky." Carrying a gun on his back and dragging a stretcher, he walked slowly through the forest path, but Licorice casually thought about the question of chocolate.

"By the way, this deer is so big, even if you add John and the instructor, plus a few other guys, it seems that you can't finish it in a short time, go back and ask if you can send some to Vincent, Vincent will definitely add food to everyone at that time, right?" But by then, the rest of the deer will definitely not be enough for them to eat, so it should be to make soup? Deer bone soup sounds like it's very tonic. Licorice thought absentmindedly.
