Chapter 144: Unexpected Joy
Wu Enqi's words are really unreliable, and he swore that this dirt road is relatively safe, so why did he finally enter the wolf's den.
If you encounter a lone wolf, you really don't have to worry about it with the strength of three people.
Even Wang Manyin can clean it up with a knife alone!
Although I haven't counted them yet, just looking at the green glow in the darkness, I know that there are at least a hundred.
Even if they have guns in their hands, they are probably no opponents.
"What are we going to do?" Liu Xiangyang's heart was also beating straight up, and he was trembling when he spoke.
"What's the hell about it...... Hand us the knife and drive with the accelerator on the accelerator!"
What else is there to say at this point?
Wang Manyin was originally going to put out the lights, but after thinking about it, he still dismissed the idea.
The terrain of the Gobi Desert is uneven, and if the lights are turned off and the car rolls over, it will be even worse.
Although the speed of a walk-behind tractor cannot be compared with that of a wolf, you can't stand still and wait for death.
Liu Xiangyang hurriedly opened the toolbox, handed over a few knives, and increased the throttle again.
Sudden Sudden Rush!
The hand-held tractor pulled the black smoke and continued to run wildly towards the night.
Sure enough, as they moved, the glows were rapidly approaching.
Through the hazy moonlight overhead, Wang Manyin could even vaguely see a large black outline, which became clearer and clearer.
He clutched the knife in his hand, and his mind was thinking about it quickly. When it comes to the last resort, Wang Yanqiang and Liu Xiangyang can only be knocked unconscious, and then they can be taken into the space to hide.
After all, I can't watch two big living people being bitten to death by wild wolves.
There were more than a dozen sheep in the carriage, so they had to be discarded. As for how to explain it afterwards, that's something to think about after surviving.
Wait, trying to knock people out...... Where the hell should I knock? Don't be careless, end up in a vegetative state.
At this time, Liu Xiangyang suddenly slowed down again.
"Why did it stop?"
The two asked eagerly.
"There's a wolf up ahead, too!" The other man stretched out his hand and pointed to the darkness ahead.
The two of them turned their heads to look together, only to notice that a little ghost light also appeared in the black and dark sand willow forest more than 100 meters in front of the car.
They still don't understand that the wolves have already tied up their pockets in front of them.
If Liu Xiangyang hadn't discovered it in time, I'm afraid he would have plunged into it.
"U-turn and face left!" Seeing the two ghosts getting closer and closer, Wang Manyin could only shout eagerly.
There is no way, stopping in place is completely waiting for death, and can only hope that there will be no wild wolf ambush elsewhere.
As the walk-behind tractor detipped off the road, it became more and more bumpy, causing the sheep in the carriage to bleat.
However, Wang Manyin and Wang Yanqiang didn't bother to pay attention to it at all, at this moment they were guarding the carriage on the left and right, taking advantage of the faint light of the air death wind lamp, staring at the movements in the darkness around them with wide eyes.
A few minutes after opening, Wang Manyin felt a little strange.
Logically speaking, the wolves are much faster than the walk-behind tractors, and they should have pounced on the hunt earlier, why did they hang unhurriedly and unhurriedly.
Don't you want to wait for them to be tired and then rush to them?
Or the roar of a walk-behind tractor scares the wolves...... After all, after the throttle is added to the end, this sudden sound still sounds very scary. ….
However, Wang Manyin also knows that the voice can only be managed for a while. When the wolves find that there is no danger, they will come close and attack.
He was thinking about things when he suddenly felt the walk-behind tractor come to a halt.
The two were caught off guard and almost got out of the carriage.
Without waiting to ask, Liu Xiangyang was already crying and crying: "It's over, the car is stuck in the sand!"
Although there are lights, it is not as good as daytime, and the specific situation on the ground cannot be accurately judged.
He continued to increase the gas pedal, the chimney suddenly emitted black smoke, and the wheels slid hard, but he could not climb out of the sand.
Damn it
The leaky house happened to be rainy and rainy.
Wang Manyin was also very depressed, and just as he was about to jump down to push the cart, he heard Wang Yanqiang shouting urgently.
"Leave the car alone, turn off the engine, and get up! The three of us are standing back to back, and we must not panic. If a wolf attacks, immediately swing your sword......
Hearing this, Liu Xiangyang didn't care about taking off the file, and turned off the fire directly.
Then, he rolled over and climbed into the car. When getting into the car, the flashlight unintentionally swept in the direction of the green light.
There were many shadows, and Wang Manyin seemed to see the appearance of the group of animals clearly.
He hurriedly said, "Xiangyang, give me the flashlight!"
In a hurry, Liu Xiangyang didn't care to ask more, and hurriedly handed over the flashlight.
After that, Wang Manyin shone into the darkness, and then breathed a sigh of relief and laughed.
"God won't destroy us, it's okay, it's a false alarm. You see, it's not a wolf!"
"Not a wolf...... Manyin, are you scared?"
Wang Yanqiang looked in the direction of the bright light with doubts. I could only get a rough outline, blurring a large group of dark shadows.
"It's not like a wolf, it's ...... Sheep?" Liu Xiangyang looked at it for a moment and exclaimed, "What a big flock of sheep, have we run to someone's pasture?"
As the ghost light slowly approached a few dozen meters away, the shape of the group of animals gradually became clear. With yellowish-brown fur and two horns on its head, it is completely like a large flock of sheep.
"The cowardly one almost scared Lao Tzu to death." Wang Yanqiang breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the car. Those who have been on the battlefield, of course, are not afraid of death, but it is better to be alive.
"Sheep, this is a yellow sheep! They have a peculiarity, they like to run with the light at night, and it is we who turn on the lights to attract these guys. In autumn and winter, people take advantage of this characteristic when hunting yellow sheep in the grassland. At night, the headlights of the car were on, and then everyone was ambushed with guns. When the yellow sheep gathered, they opened fire...... Sometimes you can hunt hundreds of them in one night. We'll see if we can catch one and bring it back!" Wang Manyin said excitedly.
Now there are no more yellow sheep on the prairie than in later generations. Some of the larger populations often have thousands of individuals congregating at every turn. The place passed was immense, and the scene was spectacular.
Wang Manyin has read a data on the Internet, it is said that before the 80s, the grassland purchased as many as 100,000 yellow sheepskins every year.
Although he doesn't know whether this data is reliable or not, it can also be seen from the side that the number of yellow sheep is quite large.
"It's really fake," Hearing this, Wang Yanqiang also became excited.
Of course he was willing to do such a thing as hunting. Not to mention, those guys almost scared them half to death. ….
"The key is that we don't have guns, how can we catch them!" At this time, Liu Xiangyang began to pour cold water.
"No guns to get off the noose! We have rope in the car, make some bow sets!" Wang Manyin immediately said.
Yellow sheep run fast, capable of reaching speeds of up to 90 kilometers per hour. In the absence of firearms, if you want to capture it up close, it is definitely not possible.
But as long as you are willing to use your brain, it is not a problem at all.
"Will it work?" However, Wang Yanqiang was a little skeptical. He originally thought that Wang Manyin planned to let the two hide in the dark and set up an ambush, and wait for the yellow sheep to get close to catch up with the hunt, but he didn't expect to set a trap.
Wang Yanqiang naturally knew that the things used were very simple. An elastic wooden stick, a rope is sufficient.
The specific arrangement method is not complicated, using the elasticity of the branches, bending into a bow, tying a rope at the top, setting a live buckle, and placing some bait around it. Then use sticks or stones to set up a trigger mechanism on the ground.
As soon as the prey touches the trap when swallowing the bait, the branch will immediately bounce up, causing the slipknot to shrink and then strangle the prey's neck.
On the side of the Festival commune, the villagers set up bow traps mainly to catch pheasants or weasels.
However, it is used to catch yellow sheep, and Wang Yanqiang has done it for the first time.
"Definitely, it's just a matter of making the rope buckle a little bigger. When they hit the trap, they're going to be hoisted." Wang Manyin confidently assured.
The bow set is also called a hanging leg in some places
sets, which can also be used to catch large prey.
Wang Yanqiang immediately agreed: "Then do it...... Let's push the walk-behind tractor out of the sand first, and then slowly clean up this bunch of guys."
Even if you can't catch it, it's nothing, it's just a waste of time.
The three quickly cut some bushes on the side of the road and laid them under the tires to prevent them from slipping. Liu Xiangyang held the crank handle in his hand and restarted the walk-behind tractor.
Wang Manyin and Wang Yanqiang pushed the tires hard to help, and finally moved the car out of the bunker.
Then, they cut down a few more sand willows, and in just ten minutes, they made several stilt covers.
To the trio's relief, the sheep did not leave, but remained stupidly and waited, as if the light had an indescribable attraction to them.
After the slinger cover was set, Liu Xiangyang started to move forward again.
No surprise, the guys quickly followed.
The walk-behind tractor travels some distance and suddenly turns back. The yellow sheep were frightened and fled into the darkness.
It seemed that the walk-behind tractors were too slow, and after they had traveled some distance, they came to a stop.
Wang Manyin and the others didn't care anymore, and rushed straight to the place where the trap was set.
As soon as I got closer, I heard a panic cry.
Wang Manyin was overjoyed and hurriedly ran away. Seeing the struggling guy, he threw a flutter around his neck.
After Wang Yanqiang arrived, he quickly picked up the rope and firmly tied the limbs of this guy.
They then checked the other bow sleeves and found that although the trap was triggered, they did not catch the prey.
Even so, the trio were very satisfied.
After throwing the yellow sheep into the car, drive back the way you came.
Behind him, the group of guys still followed unhurriedly. If it weren't for the lack of time, Wang Manyin planned to catch it again.
However, there are more than a dozen sheep in the car, and they must leave the nearby grassland before dawn.
At dawn, the three of them compared the map, and then stopped to rest, and continued to nibble on the oven to satisfy their hunger.
As far as the eye can see, the Gobi Desert is bare, and there is hardly any greenery around it, except for a few bushes such as artemisia and caragana.
Who would have thought that more than a thousand years ago, when King Helian Bo traveled around the neighborhood in the Great Summer, he immediately exclaimed, "Beautiful Sifu. Facing Guangze and bringing clear streams, I have traveled a lot, and there is no beauty of Ruosi!"
After refueling and water, and starting the walk-behind tractor, they raised their vigilance again.
Fortunately, I didn't meet any other people along the way, and finally crossed the desert area steadily.
After crossing the Gobi Sands and entering the boundary of the Yushan Mountains, the three of them relaxed a little.
