This jungle is not a mountain in the real sense, only about half a meter higher than the field, there are no protruding peaks on it, not even a mound with an abrupt position, except for waist-deep thorns and weeds and finger-sized water bamboos, which are mixed with horsetail pines, verdant and dripping, and there are all kinds of flower-winged birds jumping and chirping among the trees.

Ah Er said to the two male companions: I can't find the buffalo, I really want to shoot two birds to stop the addiction of hunting.

The two male companions were about to argue about something, when suddenly a cry came from the left side of the forest - help! The buffalo is going to kill people!

Not good. It's Li Xie Shi who is calling. Ah Er and his two companions heard it, and they hurried to hear it.

Ah Er ran ahead, skirting a forest of weeds and bushes, and was surprised to find Lai Xie lying on a tall Masson pine, the buffalo coiled in a circle with a pair of curved horns angrily resisting the trunk of the Masson pine, causing it to shake incessantly.

Ah Er wanted to shoot at the buffalo, but he was afraid that he would not be able to fire accurately, and the bullet injured Li Jieshi in the tree. He was in a hurry and shouted: Kill the buffalo.

So the two companions also shouted, and the price rang all day long. Seeing that there were many people and that the momentum was not right, the buffalo gave up its attack on Li Xie Shi and turned around and fled deeper into the jungle.

Ah Er and his two companions chased after the buffalo, and Li Xie Shi also slipped down from the tree and followed, but his body was still trembling and his mouth was panting.

The buffalo ran to the edge of the jungle, and wanted to turn around, but when he saw Ah Er and the others chasing after him, he ran out of the forest, and outside the forest was a white barren lake, so he went into the water and swam to the center of the barren lake.

Ah Er chased to the shore of the barren lake with a soil gun, the closest shore from the buffalo, there were more than 30 meters recently, Ah Er aimed the mouth of the pole at it, "boom", a spark sprayed out, I don't know if I hit the buffalo accurately, I saw it swim towards the opposite shore again. After a while, there was a little blood red in the water of the lake it swam, which proved that it had been shot.

Li Xie Shi stared at it, and sure enough, he noticed that the buffalo's left back was constantly bleeding. He muttered with hatred: Ah Er's shot hit well, and hit the damn buffalo.

Perhaps the people in the villages on the other side of the lake heard the sound of the earth-fired guns, and one by one they swarmed in, some wearing straw hats, some bareheaded, red men and women, and soon stood on the shore of the lake.

Li Xie Shi and the two men shouted in unison: "You dare to get out of the way, that buffalo is crazy, be careful that it goes ashore and kills people."

The people on the other side were about to disperse, but they found that the buffalo turned around and swam to the other side of the barren lake, avoiding people, obviously afraid of people, and its back was still bleeding. The people on the other side calmed down and said, "It doesn't seem to be crazy."

It went crazy and killed my brother in a paddy field. Lai Jieshi said: We are here to clean it up.

Ah Er put a cloth bag containing medicine foam and a drill in his pocket, and now he is taking it out and putting it into the earthen gun, intending to kill it with the second gun.

The buffalo swam on the other side of the lake, and did not climb up the shore of the lake when it came near, but wandered in the water, bleeding from the wound of the bullet in its back. Although the water of the lake diluted its redness, it did not relieve its pain. It knew that death was approaching it, and it still struggled, fighting to the death against man, its already enmity predator.

Ah Er, who was holding the earthen gun, came again, walked towards the shore closest to it, picked up the earth gun and was aiming at it, and Ah Er was followed by a group of people. The sun was hot, and some of them were squatting down leisurely and wiping a handful of lake water on their faces to cool off, not nervous at all, while the buffalo was running for its life, and the waves were surging behind it to become a waterline.

Suddenly, there was a loud "boom", and a ball of gunpowder hit the buffalo's body again, and I saw it turn its neck with difficulty on the lake bed, and then the water splashed with blood red; Its body moved weakly, and then it sank slowly, and a series of blisters rose on the surface of the lake, and the blisters floated faintly red with blood.

The barren lake returned to tranquility, only the thin waves were surging, and only Ah Er, Li Jieshi and others were discussing: the buffalo had been killed.

For other animals, the buffalo is a behemoth and a good dish, everyone knows that. Although the buffalo that was killed sank to the bottom of the lake, it was still the family of Li Jieshi, who was killed by the buffalo and had a funeral treat, just peeling the meat of the buffalo for cooking. Everyone thought so, and Li Jieshi said vigorously: Thank you Ah Er for avenging my brother, now buffalo meat can be used for cooking, and it can also be sacrificed to my brother's heroic spirit. Everyone laughed and said: The buffalo is still in the water, who will pick it up?

I'll go, I'll go. Lai Xie Shi replied excitedly.

That buffalo is not three or two catties, so easy to get? Ah Er tilted his head to express his opinion.

So how do you get it up? Li Xie Shi originally thought of a way to tie the carcass of a buffalo with a rope and drag it to the shore, but he deliberately communicated with Ah Er, and finally confirmed this method. But none of them brought a rope, so he called a man who was with him to go back and get it.

The man hadn't been here for a long time, everyone was impatient, the weather was hot, and everyone was sweating. Ah Er put the earth gun aside, squatted down and reached into the lake with both hands to scoop up water and wipe it on his face to relieve the coolness. Li Jieshi said: Let's not go down to the lake, drag the dead buffalo close to the shore, and then we can enjoy the cool water by going down to the lake.

OK. A man next to him agreed, and prepared to undress and go into the water.

Ah Er said: I can't swim, you two go into the water!

The point is that the buffalo is so huge, can the two of us drag it? The man shook his head and asked helplessly.

It doesn't matter. Ah Er said that things in the water are buoyant, and no matter how heavy they are, they will become lighter.

So, when he took off his clothes and trousers, his feet did not stand firmly, and he slipped and fell to the ground obliquely, and a sharp stone happened to touch his people, but fortunately his hand was instinctively and mechanically supported, so as not to hurt badly, but it still hurt, there was no bleeding, and there was only a red stone on it. The man looked at him and said, "Why can't you even stand on your feet, and you still fall?" and suddenly found that his red man was very short, so he slipped out a sentence: The middle of the man is short, the life is short, you have to be careful!

Nonsense, I live a long life. Li Xie Shi looked at him dissatisfied, and then a fierce man dived into the lake, and when he reached the middle of the lake, he stretched out a head full of water droplets, opened his eyes and exhaled, and then went into the water to touch the buffalo.

At this moment, the naked man with only a pair of trousers swam over, and he suddenly heard the cry of the old eagle, and looked up, and was flying overhead. He was a little superstitious, and when he heard that the old eagle was calling for trouble, he turned around and swam quickly to the shore.

Swimming to the shore, Ah Er asked him, what are you doing here? He lied and said, "I'm a little unwell."

Li Xie Shi in the middle of the lake was tinkering with the bottom of the lake for a while, and a water-stained head appeared, and when he saw the man coming ashore, he also asked him why he didn't do it, but the man still repeated what he had said to Ah Er. Li Xie Shi laughed: I have already found a buffalo sunk at the bottom of the lake, and I plan to hold it up.

You can do it! Ah Er and the man encouraged him, and he went into the water again, and after a cup of tea, he was not seen to show the water, and the people on the shore were anxious, and the atmosphere became tense.
