Chapter 552: Sika Deer
In the forest, Bursen turned from behind a huge cedar tree, and as soon as he appeared, he found a pair of bright eyes staring directly at him, so that the hairs on his body could not help but stand up slightly.
The feeling of being targeted was so obvious that Burson's body instinctively reacted.
It's like writing math problems on the blackboard, you can't see it, but you can clearly feel that the whole class is watching you, dozens of pairs of eyes staring at your back, slightly warm.
Obviously, Bi Fang had already discovered Berson hiding behind the cedar tree, and was even a little vigilant.
Perhaps because of the hunter's weather, the fifty-two-year-old Berson looked very old with a wrinkled face, a large nose, and an embarrassing gray-white beard on his chin, but on closer inspection, it was not difficult to see that his back was straight, his eyes were as sharp as a falcon's under his thick eyebrows and eye sockets, and his hands were sharply jointed, but very wide, and covered with thick calluses.
In particular, there are thick yellow and brown cocoons on the tiger's mouth and finger belly, and some of the cocoons have dried up and cracked, revealing the white cuticle that is about to fall off.
Is it still ..... to get on the crossbow often Often. Shoot?
Bi Fang reminded himself in his heart.
The crossbow also has a handle, but it has almost no recoil, but if you hold it for a long time, friction will cause thick calluses.
Either this old man is a master of the bow and crossbow, or he often holds a gun.
An experienced and terrifyingly old hunter.
The profession of a hunter, unlike a warrior, the passage of time will take away their strong body, but it does not mean that they will be weaker, on the contrary.
An old hunter of fifty years old will be significantly stronger than even a young hunter of twenty years old.
Burson also looked at Bi Fang among the trees.
Young.
The first impression was so strong and vivid that it was almost on Burson's mind, as if someone was pulling him by the collar and telling him that this guy was so old, but he could be on an equal footing with you, and even became famous in the world, a famous explorer, an adventurer.
The second strong sense is wildness, as Berson seems to have seen a wild cougar in the jungle, and he has just broken into its territory and is about to be attacked deadly.
Especially that muscle, you can go to the beauty pageant, it's like a tiger.
There is no vanity under the fame.
If Berson knew Chinese, he must have thought of this sentence in his heart at this time.
Sometimes, through the screen, many perceptions are not very accurate, and only by facing each other and looking directly at each other can we understand what a person is like.
Looking at Bi Fang, who was clenching his spear, Bosen took the initiative to put down the big crossbow on his shoulder, and instead of holding the grip, he held the crossbow body, indicating that he had no malicious intent.
"Very keen observation, young people nowadays, really getting more and more powerful, when I was twenty-five years old, I was still working for others on the farm."
Bertson repeated what he had just said, and slowly approached Bi Fang.
Bi Fang, who was half-squatting on the ground, got up with his spear and put away his hostility, which was completely a knee-jerk reaction.
Whenever you encounter strangers in the forest, you have to be careful, this is the instinct of a professional hunter.
"Hello." Bi Fang nodded, as if he had said hello.
Bosen smiled, pointed to the three drones above Bi Fang's head, and then pointed to the one behind him: "There's no need to be so vigilant. ”
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and there is basically competition between the strong and the strong.
Therefore, Bi Fang did not show too much cordiality.
Bosen untied half of the bleeding rabbit from his waist and threw it in front of Bi Fang: "I caught it last night, I thought about whether I could attract the black bear, I originally wanted to use it as today's lunch, since I met it, I will give it to you as a gift." ”
On the half rabbit in front of him, there were almost no wounds, and there were two red marks on the chest, one after the other, combined with the matter in Bosen's hand, he understood at a glance that this was pierced by an arrow.
Bi Fang was stunned, obviously he didn't expect the other party to come to such a show.
Burson smiled: "Take it, I want to thank you for it, if it weren't for your appearance, I don't think this government would have been able to make such a show, let alone let me have the opportunity to participate in the competition and win the prize." ”6
This sentence Bertson is sincere.
Before Bi Fang's live broadcast came out, no one could have imagined that such a big shop could be made in the humble wilderness.
Along with the stability and affluence of people's lives, such a unique and exciting performance full of curiosity has attracted many audiences, and has also brought fame and benefits to many unknown hunters.
Mugallen is a typical example, the last time he participated in the Discovery Channel program, in addition to the big ticket bonus, it was more of an invisible asset such as fame and status.
Although the hunting season attracts many hunters to participate, many people believe that even if they don't have the money, there will be a lot of people willing to participate.
But from the audience's point of view, the existence of bonuses is indispensable, and as a third party, you can feel the fierce atmosphere under the trend of interests.
The distribution of bonuses is also very simple, one point is equal to 100,000 yuan.
Converted, it is almost about 5,000 yuan of Huaxia coins.
One point of five thousand, ten points, means 50,000, a black bear of normal size, after hunting, can get a cash reward of 50,000.
Of course, the normal value of a black bear is more than this, bear bile, bear meat, bear paws, bear skin, bear bones, if all are sold, the total value is definitely more than 50,000.
However, considering the qualifications and channels for individual sales, as well as the government's rapid recycling, you can only get it by killing one, without considering transportation or unplaning, and 50,000 yuan is not low.
Bi Fang is now 10.2 points, which means that he has received 1.02 million yuan.
"Are you short of money?" Bi Fang picked up the rabbit on the ground, and instead of refusing, he chatted with Bosen.
Intuition told Bi Fang that the old man in front of him.
It's kind of interesting.
Bertson sighed: "Yes, if you reach my age, you will understand, it is actually difficult for ordinary people to prepare for aging, whether it is economic or health. ”
"When I was young, I had a very literary imagination, and I felt that when I got old, I would regret that I had a lot of dreams that I didn't have time to achieve, but believe me, it won't bother you, what will bother you will be medical bills, pension accounts, pain all over your body, and your vision of the world will become more and more difficult day by day."
With the expansion of human beings, the survival of animals has become more and more difficult.
Numerous protected areas have been established, and each creature is included in the protection list, and hunting can only be done at regular intervals.
Traditional hunters have struggled to sustain themselves in such a situation, but whatever is valuable is protected, and only a very small number of animals, such as wild boars, hares, and pheasants, have become the main source of income for hunters.
The only thing of value for these things is their meat, and it may not be a problem to maintain personal food and clothing.
But once you have to face the cost of your children's education, high housing prices, and other expenses, it will undoubtedly become overstretched.
Traditional hunters are disappearing.
Really active and capable, either family heirlooms, or a legacy of the last century like Berson, or ...... Poachers.
If it weren't for Bi Fang to revitalize this field, it might be even more depressed.
[Damn, damn, I'm emo]
[I watched the live broadcast to entertain myself, not to face reality, woo woo]
[Would you like to give you 4,000 yuan to reduce your life span by one month]
[What kind of problem are you definitely not willing to do, who will be willing and no one will be willing, 4000 yuan is too little, it's not worth it]
[How much do you earn a month now?] 】
【...... 4000? 】
Many viewers in the live broadcast room couldn't help but sigh when they saw the elderly Bossen sighing like this.
[Did you get your original wish?] Do you have to pay tribute now? Let the years dry the ideal, and I can never find the real me again]
[Envy the old party can take risks everywhere, but also be financially free, and dream of life]
[Some time ago, I watched too many videos of the old party, and I thought about whether I could take the whole family to Sichuan-Tibet Road for a self-driving trip, but I found out after checking the strategy that the fucking varnish fee was 10,000 less, and I vomited blood directly]
[Don't talk about it, the cost of fuel has risen again. 】
"So I'm really grateful to you, at least for now, I have almost 10,000 dollars to take."
"Okay, it's easy to be verbose when you're old, and you can't help but chat when you run into it, so let's stop here, now I'm the second place, young people, come on." Bossen winked playfully at Bi Fang, picked up the crossbow beside him, and walked towards the forest without looking back.
Bi Fang looked at Berson, who was walking away, and then looked up at the drone.
I always feel strange in my heart.
He picked up the rabbit in his hand, and after exposure to the sun and bloodletting, the half rabbit was already a little shriveled, and it didn't seem to have much meat.
Burson showed a lot of great kindness to Bi Fang.
But Bi Fang felt that things were not so simple, and the other party ...... Seems hostile to him?
It's just that under the lens, Bosen hides it very well, and even gives people a cheerful and optimistic, and there are some poor old hunters, with a strong sense of declining days.
Maybe it's because I'm feeling wrong.
Unless it is mortally dangerous, the feeling that the beast intuition brings to Bi Fang is not necessarily accurate, and it may just be the hostility caused by the competitive relationship, which means nothing.
And there are drones.
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth.
Restraining his mind, Bi Fang didn't waste this half of the rabbit, as Berson said, this can actually be used to attract black bears.
However, the black bear is obviously not so easy to find, the black bear was not found first, Bi Fang found a sika deer, perhaps because there is no natural enemy, this deer is obviously not vigilant, and Bi Fang touched it within thirty-five meters without the slightest notice.
Bi Fang stood on tiptoe, walked with a fox step, and could even distract himself from speaking to the audience.
"For the island country of Yueben, there is basically no sika deer on their homeland, like tigers or something that have disappeared as early as prehistory, and after the dwarf wolf and the wolf of Benzhou disappeared after being hunted and killed by Yueben himself, there are only bears left that can be called beasts of fierceness."
"Although brown bears and black bears can hunt sika deer, they are not pure carnivores, and they hunt sika deer less often. Bears also need to hibernate in winter, and the time to hunt sika deer is short. ”
"Relatively speaking, the bodies of these large beasts are relatively bulky, and it is difficult to catch up with the athletic sika deer, and the number of sika deer that can be killed is not very large."
The combination of multiple reasons makes the sika deer in the native area completely free of natural enemies, and it grows almost savagely, which is the scene where there are no wolves in the primary school textbooks and the deer eat up the forest.
The wolf association has also suggested that the wolf should bring in some wolves from abroad, so as to control the growth of sika deer from a biosphere perspective and reduce the losses caused by the number of sika deer.
But the public feels that it is more dangerous to lure wolves into the house than sika deer, after all, sika deer is usually a docile animal.
Even occasionally it can bring tourism economic income to the locals, and from this point of view, it is better not to bring it in.
As for letting hunters hunt, it is even more wishful thinking, as I said before, for various reasons, the traditional hunters are in decline and almost dying.
In addition, the aging of the population in recent years has reduced the original registered hunters from 500,000 to the current 100,000, of which more than 60% are elderly people with limited mobility, and more than 1,200 are women.
There are only about 10,000 young hunters who really have the ability to execute, and it is up to people to catch them, which means that one person has to catch 300 of them!
It takes a whole year to catch one a day!
It is said that it will break through to 5 million in 2025, and each hunter will have to deal with 500 heads at that time, and one person will not be able to sweep them all.
Hunters, whose numbers are declining every year, are unable to threaten the rapidly growing number of sika deer, and it is difficult to curb the rising tide of sika deer population.
There was a burst of surprise in the official live broadcast room.
Shizuka, who heard Bi Fang's words, was very surprised: "Are there already so many sika deer?" ”
I didn't expect that seemingly cute animals could cause so much trouble to everyone.
The young man in charge of the commentary nodded and admitted: "The government has decided to add a 'bird and beast hunting department' in schools from next year, that is, the school system will teach relevant laws and hunting knowledge, etc., to help students obtain trap hunting and shotgun hunting licenses, and increase the number of hunters in the country." ”
The black bears still have quotas, and the sika deer said that the government completely encouraged them to let go of the killing.
Bi Fang has seen sika deer in the woods many times, but he didn't have the heart to catch them, because deer is really difficult to catch.
Not only is the speed fast, the speed is more than 90 kilometers per hour, the field of vision is also bright, and the failure rate of capture is extremely high.
It broke the audience's perception that Bi Fang's hunting was 100% successful, but it was also normal, in nature, the hunting success rate of tigers was only 30%, and among the felines, the highest was the black-footed cat, but it was only 60%.
On the contrary, the African hyena has the highest success rate, which is 85% taller, but not 100% taller.
As a result, the vigilance of the one I encountered today was so poor.
What a chance.
Bi Fang squatted in the bushes, rubbing his hands.
"Usually deer eat grass, almost without chewing once, they will look up and look around, you look at this head, ten minutes, it has raised its head twice, it is obviously a sign of very poor vigilance, let's try it, see if we can catch it, and eat venison at noon today."
"But the wind direction is not quite right, not a tailwind, but not a headwind, the sika deer's sense of smell is very sensitive, I have to pay attention, after a day of running, I now have a lot of sweat on my body."
Bi Fang opened a small cloth bag, which was filled with plant ash, that is, charcoal ash.
Apply all the charcoal ash to your face, crush some local plants, and apply the juice to your body, so that the body odor can be better masked.
"If we can, we're still rolling in the mud, but we haven't had a chance to do that, okay, now let's see if we can get closer."
After saying this, Bi Fang no longer talked to the audience, with the hearing of the sika deer, no matter how close, there was a risk of exposure.
