Chapter 153 Picking up the dog(1/2)
"Woo...Woo..."
The hunters in Kinmen Village were also alarmed and came out of the cave. The dozen or so hunting dogs they brought with them did not bark loudly after running out of the cave. They just growled muffledly into the forest with extremely fierce eyes.
Chen Ling's dogs are no exception.
Led by Hei Wa and Xiao Jin, the dogs bared their teeth and furred, slowly lowered themselves, growled lowly, and approached the forest. They were ready to attack at any time.
And pairs of green eyes in the forest kept approaching here, as if they were not afraid of the dogs at all. As they approached the cave, they would breathe heavily from time to time and make low and short "woo, woo" sounds.
The rapid barking was like a group of puppies barking without opening their eyes.
It looks very weird at night.
"Huh? Listen to this voice, it's not a wolf?"
"What it is?!"
Everyone was startled and suspicious, and became more and more alert.
Chen Ling had already clearly seen the appearance of these things in the forest.
They are indeed not wolves.
They are a group of creatures that look like wolves but are not wolves. Their heads are more pointed than wolves. They look about three to four inches like foxes. They have long red hair all over their bodies. Their color is dark red. Their tails are very long. There are more than twenty of them. They are now
He kept wagging his nose as he approached here.
What surprised Chen Ling was that he didn't see the fierce light in the eyes of these strange creatures, similar to that of wolves when hunting...
When he was confused, Liu Guangli, who was not far away, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Li Xian, Fugui, don't be afraid, this thing is not a wolf, but a dog."
"We have more people, more guns, and more hunting dogs. We just need to beat them away."
Saying this, he called the hunting dogs back, and then, with the four men behind him, he raised his gun and started shooting at the group of "dog hunters" while walking into the forest.
Bang! Bang bang!
Seeing this, Chen Ling and the others did not lag behind, raised their guns and started shooting.
They brought seven shotguns here, and Kinmen Village had five shotguns. The total number was twelve shotguns. This formation was definitely not small. When these 'dog pickpockets' saw people approaching, the ones in front jumped suddenly.
, about one meter high, rushed towards people, but then the gun rang out, and suddenly they let out a scream again and again, fell to the ground, rolled around, and fled one by one with their tails between their legs.
Entering deep into the jungle.
"This is what the old people often call dog-picking dogs? Aren't they said to be more ferocious than wolves? How could they be beaten away so easily?"
Before Chen Ling could fire a few more shots, the group of dogs disappeared without a trace, which was incredible.
Last time there were no more wolves than this group of scoundrels. Even though they were scared of being beaten with a shotgun, they still struggled for a while.
Liu Guangli nodded when he heard this: "This thing is indeed more ferocious than wolves, but thieves are clever, sneaky, and very slippery. Once they know that they can't do it, no matter how many prey are placed in front of them, they will run away immediately.
Far away."
"Your child still goes into the mountains too little..."
Wang Lixian also said: "If you want to go into the mountains alone in the future, you must pay attention to this thing. Even if you bring a dog, you must be careful. Picking off a dog is much darker than a wolf. If you meet him alone in the mountains,
If there is a pickpocket, you have to brace yourself. Generally speaking, it is deliberately seen by you to prevent you from looking elsewhere. In fact, there are at least two or three at this time.
There's just some bad guy hiding behind you or somewhere else..."
"This thing has a vicious temper. If you let them know that you are easy to bully, they will never get rid of you."
"They can run fast and jump high. Trees two to three meters tall and ditches four to five meters wide are not a problem for them."
"Once a single person is targeted by them, they basically cannot get out of the mountain."
"In the past, when there was a famine, I went into the mountains and Anda and the others came. When I went out, there were more than half of them missing, and many of them were eaten by pooches."
"In those days, people would rush to eat whatever they saw, and eventually they would all get separated. They didn't walk together like us, and would be easily targeted by pickpockets..."
After Wang Lixian said this, Chen Ling was fine, but the other young people were frightened and broke into a cold sweat.
You look at me, I look at you.
Just thinking about the scene of a man going into the mountains and encountering a dog-picker makes his legs weak and trembling.
"But, but, I look at them like dogs, how can they still climb trees?"
"Yes, they can definitely climb trees. Or are they better than wolves? They can climb mountains, drill into forests, cross rivers, and climb small trees. They are very flexible..."
"This jackal, tiger, and leopard is the first one to fight against the dog. Do you think it is powerful?"
All the young boys were stunned and speechless for a long time.
Pagouzi is also called Jackal Gouzi. In fact, it is jackal, jackal, tiger and leopard. The front row of jackal and wolf does not mean that they are more powerful than the other two, but that these two species appear more in the scope of human activities and are harmful to humans.
The harm is greater than the other two.
As for why it is called Pagouzi, it means that this thing is cunning and cunning, and likes to have sex.
In the past, when they would attack cattle grazing outside the village, one or two of them would harass the cows, while the other jackals would go behind the cows and scratch them with their paws. When the cows felt itchy, they would raise their tails and immediately start eating.
Jump on the back of the cow, attack the cow's butthole, bite it with your teeth and dig it out with your claws.
When faced with an enemy that attacks from three directions, no matter how angry the cow is, its internal organs will be ripped out and it will die in humiliation.
That’s why people call it a dog-fighter.
Chen Ling has heard a lot of stories about dogs being picked on, and this is the first time he has seen one. In fact, jackals are becoming less and less common. They can still be seen in deep mountains now, and they are basically not as close to humans as they used to be.
The village went.
The Pagouzi here belong to the Qinling jackal, and there is also a Sichuan-Sichuan jackal. These are two major categories of jackal populations in China.
It was once extinct.
"Then, take more dogs with you when you go into the mountains. Just like this time, if we take more than 20 of them, can we beat them?"
The young people were frightened and asked.
Chen Ling could answer this without Liu Guangli and Wang Lixian talking.
"With few people and few guns, it's useless to bring more dogs. Our dogs are honest and can't play with them."
"Unless you encounter two or three pickpockets, but given their cunning, they won't show up at all when they see you bring many dogs."
The habits of jackals are actually similar to those of hyenas in Africa.
The blood of insidiousness flows in his bones.
After eyeing the prey, they will do whatever they can to ambush, harass, block, and sneak attack. Ordinary hunting dogs really can't defeat them...
"Uncle Fugui is right. A single poacher is not scary. If a poacher becomes a group, even if there are a dozen of them, there will be no one in the mountains who dares to provoke us unless we encounter hunters with many people and guns.
, even if a wolf sees it, he will take a detour.”
Wang Lixian said in agreement.
"Okay, Li Xian, stop scaring the kids. They can scare you to death. Just be careful when running in the mountains from now on. Just don't go deep into the old forest if there's no need."
Liu Guangli packed up his gun and whistled to call the dog back: "Go back to sleep and keep your spirits up. After daybreak, you may be lucky enough to pick up some meat."
"Ah? Picking up meat? What does this mean?"
The young boys were confused again after hearing this.
Wang Lixian said: "The dogs came here after smelling the bloody smell of our prey. Now that they have been beaten away by us, they must find food somewhere else. They like to eat the hearts, lungs and intestines of wild animals and fill their cavities."
After emptying it, the remaining meat is generally discarded."
"Let's follow the footprints. If we are lucky, we will indeed pick up meat."
"this……"
"Can this still happen?"
"Haha, your horizons have been opened. Come on, go to bed now. If you beat the dog away, it won't come again. Have a good sleep and get up early in the morning to pick up meat."
…
The night passed peacefully.
When I woke up early in the morning, the golden red sun had already climbed to the top of the mountain.
"Uncle Li Xian, I didn't expect that the dog-hunter really didn't come again? He was so peaceful in the second half of the night..."
"Well, after being chased away, the pampering dogs stopped coming. They often come here just to test them out. Once they know they can't be beaten, they won't provoke them again. This is their style."
"Let's go, it's sunny. Let's go see if there is any wild animal meat to pick up?"
"Let's go and pick up some meat."
Everyone immediately became energetic.
I had eaten quite a lot yesterday and was not hungry in the morning, so I packed up my things and followed the trail of the jackal, led by Liu Guangli and Wang Lixian.
Not long after.
Everyone went down to Mopanling.
The traces of the jackal became more and more obvious until they finally disappeared.
To be continued...
