Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain

Chapter 530 Small tricks

The three brothers discussed the time periods for their respective night shifts. Soldiers Wang Chao and Ma Liang were quite particular and assigned the first shift to Xiao Tao so that he could have a full night’s sleep.

After arranging everything they could think of, the group, who had been traveling all afternoon and evening, squeezed into the tent and began to rest.

It was not easy to rush along the mountain road for dozens of kilometers at a high intensity. After a while, I could hear my companion snoring next to me.

Yue Feng lay on the bear skin mat to keep out the cold and slowly closed his eyes to rest.

At this time, Uncle Wu, who was closest to the door, held the gun in one hand, gently lifted a corner of the curtain and walked out of the tent.

Yue Feng felt the change in wind pressure in the tent. He looked up slightly and found that it was Uncle Wu, then he lay down again.

Among the six people in the group, Uncle Wu seems to be the most relaxed, but in fact he is the most worried one.

If you want to sleep well, it is very necessary to patrol the woods.

Uncle Wu, who was not very strong, was as agile as a monkey after entering the woods. In just a few steps, he climbed up the ridge from behind the tent.

The old man took a quick look around and then chased in one direction.

Half an hour later, a gunshot in the valley woke up everyone who had just begun to sleep.

Ten minutes later, Uncle Wu came back dragging a roe deer weighing thirty or forty kilograms.

Wu Keji threw the roe deer in front of the dog gang, and fed the four horses with bean cakes soaked in warm water. Finally, he opened the tent with great satisfaction and returned to his bunk to lie down and rest.

“Uncle, you went out and fired a shot. What did you shoot? I heard a gunshot just now!” Yue Feng asked in a low voice.

“It’s just an unlucky roe deer! I carried it back when I saw it. I didn’t want to get too much blood on my hands for the evening, so I didn’t gut the roe deer. I only removed its two hind legs and gave the rest of the ribs to the dogs as a snack for the evening!” Grandpa Wu said lightly.

“You’re leaving at this time, is that…”

Yue Feng’s brain was a little slow to keep up, so he simply stopped hiding anything and asked truthfully.

“I’m going out for a walk to check out the area! This is my habit when I stay overnight, nothing to do!

You should get some sleep. There will be no more Chai Ji Dao to walk on starting from tomorrow. If you don’t get enough rest, you will not be able to bear it!”

“Oh!” Yue Feng responded without further investigation.

If Yue Feng had followed Grandpa Wu out just now, he would have seen that the old man indeed walked around outside, but he also did something else.

Several tin cans for dinner were tied by the old man with thin ropes to several inconspicuous places.

These locations are each connected to different sources. If you accidentally touch the rope trap, the clanging sound of the iron can can be heard from far away.

A veteran is a veteran. He always has a backup plan for doing things, even in relatively familiar areas. It’s just that such small details are not worth telling others.

Yue Feng slept quite comfortably that night. The three companions on duty kept the fire on time, so the tent was never cold.

Every time a change of personnel took place, Grandpa Wu, who was soundly sleeping the second before, would open his eyes on time, look around, then listen attentively to the movements outside, and would go back to sleep only if there was nothing unusual.

Before they knew it, the night had passed. As soon as the next day’s day broke, Wu Keji woke up everyone who was sleeping in the tent.

“Everyone, get up and regain your consciousness. After you’ve had your fill and the sun is bright, let’s set off!”

Several people were awakened, and Yue Feng also woke up from his sleep.

In the dim tent, a camp stove was burning on the stove and breakfast was already being cooked.

In addition to compressed biscuits and canned food in the pot, there was also a lot of fresh roe deer leg meat. The meat had already turned white and would be ready to eat in a while.

“Uncle, what time did you wake up? Breakfast is already prepared!”

Ma Liang, who was on the last night shift, felt a little embarrassed.

He added firewood to the stove at four o’clock, then dozed off because he was too sleepy. When he opened his eyes, breakfast was already ready in the pot on the stove.

If it were just this point, it would not be a big deal. What hurt Ma Liang the most was that the watch that the old man on night duty gave him last night, which he had clearly worn on his wrist, had now returned to Uncle Wu’s wrist without anyone noticing.

During the whole process, I didn’t hear any sound, which made me feel a little ashamed because I thought standing guard was a piece of cake last night.

If Mr. Wu wanted to harm him, he would have been a corpse by now.

Uncle Wu said calmly, “I got up just as you filled the furnace with firewood! I get old and don’t sleep much, so I woke up when I couldn’t fall asleep!”

“It’s five forty now!” Yue Feng said after looking at his watch.

“Yes! There are still about ten minutes before the meal is ready. Xiaofeng, come out with me!”

Uncle Wu waved to Yue Feng and was the first to come out of the tent.

“OK!”

Yue Feng wrapped himself in clothes and crawled out of the tent. As soon as he came out, he shivered subconsciously.

There is a big temperature difference between inside and outside the tent. The temperature outside is at least minus 15 degrees Celsius in the morning, and the skin exposed outside is a little uncomfortable.

“Uncle, what’s the matter?” Yue Feng asked curiously.

“It’s nothing serious, don’t be nervous. Aren’t you curious about why I went out for a stroll before going to bed last night? I’ll take you for a look!”

“Oh oh!!” Yue Feng’s heart moved and he followed immediately.

Soon, Wu Keji brought Yue Feng to the first warning mechanism he had set up last night. “This is a warning mechanism I set up last night! Take a look and see what you can see!”

Yue Feng nodded after listening and observed it carefully in the dim light.

The materials used were very simple, a single strand of tire wire, which was twisted and then tied to a can, with the other end tied under a small tree about ten meters away.

This little mechanism is quite interesting. Its height is basically the same as the diagonal height of the can, and the wire is not too tight. But if it is accidentally triggered at this moment, the twisting force on the tire wire will break the balance, causing the can to pop out and hit the tree trunk on the opposite side.

Yue Feng took the initiative to trigger it and tried it, then said: “Is this a small mechanism to prevent anyone from approaching us?”

“Well, when you go out into the mountains for the night, you can never be too careful!

The tent is about thirty meters away from here. If something happens, there is enough time to take out the gun and turn on the safety in the tent!
This mechanism is very simple. Look at the details of the chosen location.

“Old Zhao must have taught you how to set up traps, so I won’t waste any more words! But you have to be careful about the location you choose!”

After Uncle Wu’s reminder, Yue Feng realized that there were considerations in choosing the location to set the trap.

Following the method Zhao Dashan had taught him before, he put himself in the attacker’s shoes and perspective, and figured out where to place the warning device.

Seeing this, Yue Feng admired Uncle Wu even more.

It seems like a random arrangement, but if Yue Feng were to attack at night, he would most likely be hit.

It’s because the location of this warning device is too classic.

The surrounding terrain structure and the growth of small trees and shrubs have been perfectly taken into consideration. As long as you approach from this side, this warning station is almost a must-pass route.

Wu Keji saw the micro-expressions on Yue Feng’s face changing again and again, and said with a smile: “You have a good understanding, do you understand?”

“I understand!”

“Put away the rope, and throw away the can shell! There are two more places, look with me and put them away too!”

“Oooo!”

Yue Feng followed behind Uncle Wu and checked the two warning agencies, one far and one near, from the other two directions, then reeled in the line.

Just a little trick gave Yue Feng a new understanding of the old man’s style of doing things.

There is no false reputation under a great name, Wu Keji, the living map, has something!

It was less than ten minutes after they put away the warning device and returned to the tent. Yue Feng followed Wu Keji back to their residence.

When passing by the place where the dogs were tied at the side of the door, Old Wu subconsciously glanced at the half-grown roe deer in front of the dog team that had been torn into pieces and almost eaten.

“Hey!! You hound, don’t you eat roe deer heart and lungs??”

Uncle Wu was very surprised. Among Yue Feng’s eight dogs, four had very obvious characteristics of wolf-blood dogs.

Logically speaking, since the intestines and stomach are all taken out and eaten, the more delicious heart and lungs should not be left out.

But now, the only parts that have not been touched are the heart and lungs, and almost all the other parts have been eaten.

This matter is quite different from Wu Keji’s own understanding.

Hearing the old man mumbling, Yue Feng grinned, revealing his mouthful of white teeth.

“Hey, dogs eat hearts and lungs, but you have to feed them by hand!

They all know that this place is for the eagle boss of the dog gang to eat!

The roe deer’s heart and lungs are still fresh, so I’ll melt them in some warm water and feed them to the two eagles!”

Now it was Wu Keji’s turn to be surprised.

“The dog is leaving food for the eagle? How did you train him?!”

“There was no deliberate training. Eagle recruited the dogs as his little brothers. The four big dogs followed Eagle up the mountain, and after working together twice, they accepted the task on their own.

The four young dogs have been eating and sleeping with the eagle in the house since they were a few months old, and they have learned the rules now that they have grown up!”

“Hey, that’s weird! Put the meat on the table and feed it to the eagle in front of me to see how the dog reacts. This is really weird!

According to common sense, the more wolf blood a dog has, the more hostile it is to birds and living creatures. Can you, an eagle, be accepted as a younger brother by a dog?”

“Okay, I’ll show you right away!”

Yue Feng picked up the tender meat of the roe deer heart and lungs that had not moved in the snow, prepared it briefly, and brought it into the house. He soaked it in warm water and it thawed quickly.

The next second, Yue Feng took the two eagles out of the tent and took off his hat.

He just placed the eagle on a nearby tree trunk, blew a whistle to call the eagle, then cut the fresh meat into slices with a knife and began to feed the eagle.

Hearing the whistle of its owner, the big black eagle cackled a few times, fluffed up its feathers, and came over happily.

Feed him, take the piece of meat and swallow it with your head tilted back.

After eating more than a dozen pieces of roe deer heart, the big black eagle did not continue to raise its head to receive the meat. Instead, it cackled a few times at the little white eagle that had been hanging on the tree trunk and had not jumped down.

Under the watchful eyes of Uncle Wu, Little White Spear landed beside Yue Feng and continued to eat after taking the place of Big Black Eagle. (End of this chapter)
