Chapter 111: Avalanche

The snow-white Taihang Mountain is covered with snow-soaked middle-aged snow, dancing silver snakes, and primitive wax figures. The snow is frozen for three thousand miles, and the fragrance of plum floats all over the world.

"Uncle Ge, are you still going up the mountain today?" asked a young hunter carrying a mountain fox on his back to a middle-aged man about half a year old.

The middle-aged man called Uncle Ge helped the fur hat he was wearing on his head, let out a cold breath, and said with his hands: "Yes! The baby has also grown up, today I will take him to the mountains to see and understand, don't be an adult who has no ability to ask for a mother-in-law!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the teenage boy who was wrapped in a snow-white fur coat behind him. The eyebrows are clear, the sword eyebrows are upside down, and the show exudes a perseverance.

The little guy carried a big bow about his height on his back, and smiled at the young man: "Hello second uncle! I am following my grandfather into the mountains to fight a few old bears." ”

"Hehe! Okay! The baby has grown up and has a future!" the young man laughed heartily, and then turned to Uncle Ge and said solemnly: "Uncle, don't go into the mountains when hunting, I heard that there was an avalanche in the mountains two days ago, and it has not been safe these days! Just shoot a few little rabbits or something on the periphery." ”

"Don't worry!" Uncle Ge smiled heartily, then patted his grandson's head and said, "Baby, go, grandpa will take you to hunt!"

"Second uncle, my grandfather and I will go into the mountain, goodbye!" said the little one, raising his head to the young man.

"Go!" said the young man with a smile, and after saying that, he put the few remaining arrows into the quiver of the little one, and instructed: "Ge Wazi, you must be careful when you go to the mountains!"

"Okay, goodbye, second uncle!" Ge Wazi patted the longbow on his back, and hurriedly followed his grandfather, who was walking on his front feet.

Looking at the ancestors and grandchildren who were heading towards the vast snow-capped mountains, the young man muttered, "Ge Wazi has also grown up, and Brother Ge and his wife can rest in peace!" After speaking, he shook his head and walked towards the village. Today he had a good result, much better than yesterday.

The vast snow-capped mountains are fluttering in the wind and snow, and the emerald green pine trees are standing in the north wind and refuse to unload the green of life. Occasionally, you can see a small cedar running over the snow-white snow, leaving lovely footprints.

"Grandpa, are there many such little guys in this mountain?" Ge Wazi quickly ran to Uncle Ge's side, pointing to a little cedar that was looking at the grandfather and grandson not far away, and there was no human timidity in the two small crystal eyes.

Uncle Ge didn't stop, and continued to walk forward one foot deep and one foot shallow, making a creaking sound every step on the snow. He said: "It is the cedar in the snowy mountains, it is very small, it is more than a foot long when it grows up, and the whole body is gray, and there are many such animals in this snowy mountain. ”

In this way, Uncle Ge took his little grandson Ge Wazi all the way to the deep mountains, and introduced Ge Wazi to some of the animals in the snowy mountains along the way. In his opinion, Ge Wazi will definitely become the best hunter in the snowy mountains, and now is the best time to teach him to recognize the animals in the snowy mountains.

Unconsciously, the two of them had entered the mountains and were walking, when Uncle Ge's eyes suddenly lit up. Pointing to the snow antelope that was shaving snow not far ahead, looking for food, he said to Ge Wazi, who was only bow-high behind him: "Wazi, do you see it? That is our hunter's favorite prey -- the snow antelope! Its meat is very delicious, and it is a herbivore, which generally does not harm people, and is easy to catch!"

Ge Wazi looked along the place pointed by his grandfather, and sure enough, there was a snow antelope more than one meter tall, snow-white, and two long brown horns.

The snow antelope is shaving deep snow with its front hooves, and Changbai Mountain is basically a perennial snowfall, although there are four seasons, but the snow cover will not decrease, but in the spring some hardy plants will grow.

Now the snow antelope is digging the roots of the plants buried under the snow, which is what they feed herbivores for the winter.

Although it is eating, it still has the instinct of being a herbivore, and a pair of snow-white ears stand straight up, spying on everything around it, and as long as there is the slightest danger, it will immediately run away.

Far away, Uncle Ge asked the little grandson to learn to crawl forward on the ground, fortunately, both of them were wearing snow-white fur coats, otherwise you could clearly see the two white dots constantly approaching the snow antelope.

Soon, a large figure and a small figure arrived less than fifty meters away from the snow antelope. At this time, the snow antelope that was eating thought that it had sensed a danger quietly approaching him, raised his head and kept looking around.

Ge Wazi seems to have a natural talent for being a hunter, although he has not really hunted, but in the face of this situation, he did not immediately rush out to round up the prey, but waited patiently for the prey to relax his vigilance again.

Looking at his grandson's performance, Uncle Ge nodded secretly and said secretly: "It is worthy of being my grandson, he was born to be a good hunter!"

Perhaps because it didn't see any danger, the snow antelope slowly lowered its head and began to nibble on the food buried under the snow.

At the moment when it just lowered its head, Ge Wazi, who was lying in the snow nest waiting for the opportunity, suddenly stood up upright, knelt in the snow, held the longbow in his left hand and pulled the bowstring in his right hand, and finally pulled the bow and arrow in his hand with all his strength.

"Chirp!"

A breaking sound sounded, and a white arrow passed through a distance of more than fifty meters like lightning and stuck in the snow antelope that was gnawing on food.

"Poof!"

"Mark......

With a terrible cry, a blood flower burst out, drawing a beautiful red plum on the snow. Although it was shot with a bow and arrow, the snow antelope did not fall immediately, but quickly ran towards the deep mountains.

"Grandpa, let's chase after us!" Ge Wazi secretly said that it was a pity, only to blame his own strength was too small, if the arm strength was a little stronger, this arrow could shoot the snow antelope.

At the critical moment, Uncle Ge, an old hunter, had experience, so he stopped the little grandson who wanted to catch up quickly, and said with a smile: "Hey, don't worry, it can't run away!" As he spoke, he pointed to the red snow marks on the snow.

Although the arrow just now failed to shoot the prey, it also cost it half a life, and it would be good to be able to escape, and it was impossible to escape very far. Looking at the prey's trembling figure when it ran, Uncle Ge knew about it.

The grandfather and grandson walked forward unhurriedly following the bloodstains, and with the guidance of the bloodstains, it was expected that the snow antelope would not be able to escape.

It took more than an hour for the grandfather and grandson to finally find the dead snow antelope in a mountain stream. Uncle Ge cut down a pine tree with a firewood knife to make a simple sleigh, and put the snow antelope on it to prepare to go back. Both grandparents and grandchildren were happy, this prey was enough for the two of them to eat for several days, and the fur could be sold for two change.

"Let's go! Finish the work!" Uncle Ge said with a smile, pulling the rope on the sleigh with both hands and just about to leave, there was a loud "boom" above the snowy mountain.

"What's the matter, grandpa, where is the sound?" Ge Wazi asked suspiciously, looking up in the direction where the voice was coming from.

The ground shook, snowdrifts splashed, and large patches of snow began to roll down from the peaks. A huge roar kept coming.

"Let's go! It's an avalanche!" Uncle Ge's face changed, and he hurriedly abandoned his prey, grabbed Ge Wazi, picked him up, and ran towards the outside of the mountain stream.

But before he had taken a few steps, the sky quickly settled down. The snow covering the sky fell frantically, and Uncle Ge screamed and turned over and pressed his grandson Ge Wazi under his body.

I don't know how long it has been, Uncle Ge opened his eyes tiredly, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he hurriedly stood up, looking nervously looking for his grandson.

Fortunately, nothing happened, and his grandson was under him. Although he has not woken up yet, he is no longer in danger of his life.

At this time, Uncle Ge took a serious look at this place, this is a small cave, although it is not big, it is not small. Uncle Ge looked at the snow blocking the cave and secretly congratulated himself that his ancestors and grandchildren were blessed with great lives, if they hadn't rolled down into this small cave, I am afraid that the two would have died under the avalanche.

Uncle Ge picked up his grandson, and just as he wanted to leave, he found that the dead snow antelope and the sleigh had also rolled into the cave. He hurriedly put Ge Wazi on the sleigh mountain, and began to walk to the front of Shandong, slowly using a firewood knife to dig the snow blocked in the mountain pass.

According to the usual cases, although Changbai Mountain loves avalanches, the scale is very small every time. Uncle Ge tried to dig a cave because of this experience, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get out at all.

In fact, this is not the main reason, the main reason is that a faint light can still be seen at the entrance of the cave, which is also the reason why Uncle Ge began to shave snow.

As he expected, after a few diggings, the snow at the entrance of the cave was cut open.

Uncle Ge shouted excitedly, and hurriedly moved his grandson and the snow antelope out. Put Ge Wazi on the sleigh mountain, and before he left, Ge Wazi woke up.

With happy laughter, the grandfather and grandson carried the dead snow antelope to the sleigh and walked out of the mountain.

Before they got out of the mountain stream, the two were shocked again. Because they saw a figure at the mouth of the mountain stream, or rather a figure lying on the snow.

"Look, there's a man!" shouted Uncle Ge hurriedly, hurriedly throwing down the rope of the sled and running to the man lying on the snow.

Ge Wazi also hurriedly ran over. Uncle Ge probed the man's breath and said, "It's okay, there's still breathing." I don't know where this hunter is, soaked in dried blood all over his body. ”

"Grandpa, what are we going to do? Why don't we put him on the sleigh and pull him back?" said the kind-hearted Gewazi.

"Hmm!" Uncle Ge was also full of kindness, nodded and carried the unconscious young man to the sleigh.

The grandfather and grandson continued to walk out of the mountain. But Uncle Ge had a deep question in his heart, he didn't understand why there was a person in a robe in such a cold snowy mountain, which was too unreasonable.

(Hey, hey, relatives who walked for two days yesterday and today!I'm dying of exhaustion!)
