Chapter 186: The Man Who Trains Jackals for Hunting

“Brother, let’s make a fire and have something to eat. I’m hungry and can’t walk anymore!” Once the breath they had been holding was relaxed, no one wanted to move.

Yue Feng nodded: “Okay! Let’s light the fire and eat!”

After saying this, Yue Feng whistled towards the big black eagle in the sky, and soon the eagle that had been following him landed.

They picked up branches and made a fire. In less than ten minutes, the flames started. The big black eagle tucked its neck in and rested on Yue Feng’s arm. The other people took out the meat buns they brought, put them on branches and roasted them by the fire. Soon the fragrance wafted into the air.

After each of them ate a big meat bun, they finally felt much warmer. With food in their stomachs, they slowly recovered from the fatigue of the long journey.

“Brother, after we’re full, shall we continue chasing them? I feel like the herd of wild boars seems to have dispersed!”

Xiaowen did not forget to observe his surroundings while picking up firewood. Now he was eating a meat bun while discussing the follow-up with Yue Feng.

Yue Feng nodded: “I also think what you said is very likely, let’s look for it later and see if we can find any trace of the Wild Boar King!
This thing is not something you can see whenever you want, and it cannot be measured by the logic that cannon eggs are worthless. If you shoot it back and send it to the forest farm, and hand it in to exchange for a rare specimen, it will be worth a lot of money! “

“What if we can’t find it? In fact, when we were following it just now, I was paying attention to the footprints of this wild boar. Later I found that it had been too long and I could hardly determine the direction!” Xiaowen said again.

“If we can’t find them, then we can go back to Bojiwaizi and kill the two stray wild boars. Then we can drag them back so that our trip up the mountain won’t be in vain!” Yue Feng said as he took a bite of the greasy meat filling.

“Okay! Since the Wild Boar King’s herd of pigs has dispersed, we can’t come here for nothing. It cost us 60 yuan to buy this information!” Xiaowen nodded.

“As long as it’s true, the money is worth it. We didn’t find the wild boar king because we were unlucky! Just keep a normal mind. Going into the mountains to hunt doesn’t guarantee a profit every time!”

We were eating buns and chatting, when suddenly, a gunshot was heard from the direction of Bojiweizi.

In the deep mountains and forests, a gunshot was heard. The four people who were eating immediately put down their buns and stood up.

“Someone! It’s from the direction of Bojiwaizi! Brother, has our pig been beaten by someone?”

Xiao Tao was the first to react when he heard the noise. He stopped eating his buns and wanted to chase the wild boar back to the area where it had been active before.

“Xiao Tao, what are you doing! Come back!” Yue Feng shouted.

“Gunshot!”

“If there’s a gunshot, then there’s a gunshot. We’re at least a mile away. It’s too late to go over now! There was only one gunshot. It must have been a barreled rifle! Eat first. Eat your fill. Then there’ll be time to go over and take a look!”

“Well, okay then!” Xiao Tao nodded and picked up the unfinished bun to continue eating.

Because of the gunshot, several people did not have a good lunch. After filling their stomachs, they used the accumulated snow to put out the fire, and then they rushed towards the direction of the gunshot half a beat late.

From several hundred meters away, Yue Feng heard the somewhat unusual barking of a dog.

The barking of these dogs was a bit sharp, not as rough as that of ordinary hunting dogs, and the tone was a bit strange. It was not the kind of barking, but rather a bit like the bray of a donkey. Listening to the emotions conveyed in the barking, it felt as if the dogs were fighting for food.

“Xiao Tao, keep an eye on our dog. There seems to be a dog gang ahead!” Yue Feng reminded him and continued to move forward with his men.

After passing through the dense forest, we soon saw the person who had fired the gun at the bottom of the ditch below Bojiweizi.

This was an old hunter dressed in standard mountain folk attire, with a fox fur hat on his head, a sheepskin coat on his body, and leggings underneath. He had a barreled shotgun with the butt of the rifle stuck down in the snow within his reach.

Around him, five red dogs were being fed.

When Yue Feng saw the dog on the ground, his heart skipped a beat for no reason. He took a closer look and immediately became alert.

This is not a dog, it’s a red dog!
When people heard the word “red dog”, they didn’t know what it was.

But when you hear the scientific name, you must have heard of it.

The scientific name of red dog is jackal, the jackal among wolves, tigers and leopards!

Someone could actually tame a jackal as a hunting dog? That’s pretty amazing.

“Brother, look at that hunter’s dog. Why does it have red hair and isn’t very big? What breed is it?” Xiao Tao also noticed the dog on the ground.

“Don’t talk, you guys stay here, I’ll go down and talk to you!”

Yue Feng did not answer, but took off the gun and handed it to Xiaowen, then walked towards the bottom of the ditch empty-handed.

The appearance of Yue Feng and his group of uninvited guests was also seen by the hunters below.

The hunter in the ravine’s first reaction when he saw Yue Feng was to pick up the gun in his hand. However, when he saw Yue Feng take off the 56 and a half and hand it to his companion, he walked down empty-handed again, and the muzzle of the gun dropped again.

“Is that Uncle Zhao?” Yue Feng did not continue walking forward, but shouted instead from more than 20 meters away.

“I’m Zhao Dashan. Whose child are you?” A hoarse voice replied from the other side.

“I’m a friend of Uncle Chen Zhenshan! My name is Yue Feng, my father is Yue Lei, and my family is from Xing’an Village. When I was flying hawks with Uncle Chen, I heard him mention you. He said that you were digging a cellar in the mountains, and that we were friends for life!”

“Bullshit friendship, Chen Erguai hasn’t come to the mountain to see me for almost a year, I thought he was dead. There are not many people with the surname Yue down the mountain, Yue Lei doesn’t know them, who is Yue Xianzong to you?” “Yue Xianzong is my grandfather!”

“Fuck! Your grandson is already this big! Let’s not talk about it from Chen Erguai’s side, let’s talk about it from your grandfather’s side. You have to call me uncle!”

After hearing Yue Feng introduce himself, Zhao Dashan’s tense nerves immediately relaxed, and he put the gun in his hand back into the snow.

“Uncle Zhao!!”

“Hey! Great! Are you here with your friends to hunt? You have pretty good equipment. Four of you, two 56 guns? But there are not enough dogs!”

After Zhao Dashan responded to Yue Feng, his attitude immediately changed.

“I heard from the villagers that a large group of wild boar kings gathered here a few days ago, so we came here to try our luck! As a result, we followed the trail for a long time, and at noon, we wanted to take a break and eat something. When we heard gunshots over here, we came around to take a look!”

“You think you can beat the wild boar king with just these two 56 and a half shots? You guys are really brave! Aren’t your parents here with you?”

“My dad broke his leg and hasn’t recovered yet, so I brought some people with me!”

“Okay, you seem to be pretty steady! The herd of pigs gathered by the big wild boar king has been dispersed for a few days! This sentence was said almost a week ago!
I followed the trail and got close to it. There were at least a hundred wild boars surrounding it. Even if you brought a squad machine gun up there, it’s hard to say whether you could take it down, not to mention that you have a 56- rifle!”

“Hmm? Any idea?”

When Yue Feng heard that the squad machine gun didn’t work, he felt it was a bit ridiculous.

No matter how powerful this thing is, it is still flesh and blood. It has no concept of a squad machine gun. With a burst of fire, not to mention the Wild Boar King, even an elephant can’t withstand it.

“I don’t know what ability the wild boar king has, but he can gather all the pigs in the surrounding area! But the gathered pigs are not peaceful and are very vigilant. Even at night, they stand and huddle together instead of lying down. I got a little closer and was discovered from a distance of several hundred meters!
That guy, the pigs are running in the mountains, and the ground is shaking!”

While he was speaking, the wild boar weighing over 200 pounds had been eaten by several red dogs as soon as it went into the water. The old man lifted up the wild boar weighing over 100 pounds by the leg with a slight effort.

“Let’s go back to my house and warm up!”

Yue Feng felt a little dazed when he saw a wild boar weighing at least 150 kilograms being easily carried up and walking on the snow with big strides.

What is a tough guy? This is a real tough guy.

No wonder he can live alone in the deep mountains and forests. His strong physical fitness alone is something Yue Feng cannot match.

Yue Feng can carry a weight of over 100 kilograms on flat ground, but he definitely can’t do it as easily as the old man does.

Uncle Zhao carried the pig and climbed up the mountain ridge, and several red dogs followed obediently behind him. However, these dogs were obviously not full, and their stomachs were still half full. When they looked at Yue Feng and the others, their eyes were quite fierce, especially after they discovered the black wolf, they even growled.

“Red Dragon, no fighting!!”

Uncle Zhao shouted, and the jackal that was leading the group with bared teeth immediately turned around and followed, wagging its tail. Judging from its obedience alone, this leading dog, whose color was lighter than the other jackals, seemed to be no worse than a well-trained hunting dog.

When he came up to him, Yue Feng introduced him, “This is our Uncle Zhao, the friend of Uncle Chen I mentioned yesterday, and also a friend of my grandfather!”

“Uncle Zhao!”

“Uncle Zhao!”

“Uncle Zhao!”

“Hey, hey, hey, you are all good kids! Let’s go to my house and warm up! Have you eaten yet? If not, I will stew wild boar meat for you!”

After being called “Uncle” three times respectfully, Uncle Zhao felt quite pleased.

“I just ate!”

“Then let’s go back and warm up and have some water first! Old Eagle’s grandson is already this old, our generation is really old!!”

“Or you can put the wild boar down. We have a sled and it will be easier to drag it back!” Yue Feng said again.

Uncle Zhao shook his head and pointed at the jackals nearby, saying, “The wild boar is here with me, so don’t dare drag it. Except for Chilong, the other jackals won’t listen to you when they see meat. If you drag it on the ground, they will tear it apart! It’s not far to go, so you better carry it!”

Soon, Uncle Zhao brought Yue Feng and three others back to the cellar where he lived.

This cellar is not far from the place where the wild boar was shot, and the straight-line distance is not more than one kilometer. However, the location chosen is very tricky, located on the east side of a sunny slope.

When Yue Feng led people to track the trail in the morning, they were no more than 500 meters away from here, but they didn’t find it.

Moreover, Uncle Zhao’s cellar was obviously larger than the one Yue Feng had seen and lived in in his previous life. There was also a fence wall more than half a person’s height built outside with wooden sticks.

At first glance, the house is even a bit like the mud houses in the village, except that it is shorter, except that the roof is not thatched and tiled, but covered with moss, bark and animal skin.
