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

Chapter 531 Insight

From beginning to end, Yue Feng didn’t say a word, and the two eagles took turns eating in a very friendly manner.

The eight dogs tied not far away were extremely quiet. They lay on the ground without even getting up, let alone barking or even fighting for the meat on the ground.

Uncle Wu opened his eyes wide when he saw this scene.

“Eagles eat red meat and poop white shit, and they turn their backs on you. Do you two eagles know how to be humble to each other?”

Yue Feng didn’t stop cutting meat to feed the eagle, and nodded with a smile: “Yeah! My two eagles are different. This little white spear is the husband of the big black eagle. These two eagles are a pair!

This spring, they have hatched eggs and raised chicks! They are being raised as breeding birds in a farm on the mountain!”

“Not bad! Really good! This eagle is smart, and it’s definitely not like the stupid ones I saw before!”

Wu Keji nodded repeatedly. After seeing it with his own eyes, he was completely convinced.

Not all eagles can be the leaders of the hunting team’s dog gang.

Not all eagles are willing to share food with their companions when faced with it.

From this point of view, the two eagles, one black and one white, in Yue Feng’s hands can indeed be considered spiritual.

After the father and son fed the eagle the roe deer heart, liver and lungs outside, they placed the eagle on the mountain at the door to digest the food, and then the father and son went into the tent.

The breakfast in the pot was ready, but the two of them didn’t come back, so no one else started eating.

“Don’t wait any longer, eat! Put up the tent and keep on going!”

Soon, everyone shared breakfast, simply rinsed the pots and utensils with snow water, and began to dismantle the tents.

Speaking of it, these things are quite simple, but in practice, they are still very tedious and time-consuming.

By the time the tents and other supplies were put in order and tied to the plow, it was already dawn.

Yue Feng seriously suspected that Uncle Wu had calculated the time precisely to make breakfast and wake everyone up.

After organizing the supplies, the group of six set out on their journey again.

At first, there was a branch road of Chaiji Road that could be used, but as we went further, it was all dense mountains and forests.

However, it is worth mentioning that Uncle Wu has a very clear memory of the road into the mountains.

Even the most difficult places could be passed with horses pulling sleds, and the group never turned back.

When they set out in the morning, everyone was feeling pretty good after a night’s rest. When it was almost noon, even Xiao Tao, who was the most lively, stopped showing off and just kept on walking, stepping deeply and shallowly on the snow crust.

“Uncle, when are we going to have lunch? I’ve already digested the meat porridge I had this morning and I’m hungry!!”

Xiao Tao couldn’t help but asked about lunch.

Uncle Wu looked straight ahead with a blank expression: “Be patient, dinner will be served soon!”

This time, another half an hour passed.

Just when Yue Feng felt that his stomach was about to burst and he was about to open his mouth to ask when lunch would be, Wu Keji glanced at the mountains and forests in the distance and gestured to everyone to keep quiet and wait.

Then, Uncle Wu was seen walking forward about ten meters along the ridge, with his back slightly bent, and then he shook his shoulders and the barreled shotgun came into his hand. He pulled the trigger without even aiming.

“Got it!! Let’s collect some firewood and then have dinner! We’ll have barbecue for lunch!”

“Ah? Already got it? What are you hitting?”

Yue Feng was a little confused.

The distance between him and Uncle Wu was no more than thirty meters, and Yue Feng could not see anything in the direction where the old man fired.

Uncle Wu said nonchalantly: “What rare things can be found in this shabby place? Roe deer!
Just make do with what you have. Go pick up some firewood and start a fire. I’ll drag the roe deer back!”

“Fuck, Uncle Wu, your shooting skills are too amazing, right? You don’t even aim, you just raise the gun and it’s fired?”

When Xiaowu heard what the old man said, he couldn’t hold it in any longer and couldn’t help but ask.

“I’ve been playing with this thing for half my life, and I still need to aim to kill a roe deer! Let’s go!”

The old man said this lightly, turned around and walked towards the ditch in front.

In just a few minutes, a female roe deer weighing forty or fifty kilograms was dragged back.

Yue Feng and his brothers used the hatchets they carried with them to chop down two dead pine trees and soon started a fire.

After the roe deer was dragged back, Yue Feng paid special attention to the impact point of the bullet.

Judging from the marks, the bullet entered the lung below the forelimb and exited from the other side, killing him with one shot, quick and easy. Uncle Wu calmly rolled a cigarette and said, “There is a big green-haired boy among the group of roe deer. If it weren’t for the trouble of carrying him on our way, I would have shot the male one!

The male has more meat, but the taste is worse, so just eat it!

“Xiaofeng, how are you at handling prey? Now that we’ve got the roe deer back, are you going to take care of the skinning and gutting?”

“Okay! Come and take care of me! I’m familiar with skinning and gutting!”

Yue Feng responded and immediately pulled out the leg plug from his calf and started working.

Yue Feng finally understood that whether Uncle Wu took him to check the alarm device in the morning or asked him to clean up the prey now, it was a test of his professional level.

When asked to do the job, Yue Feng accepted it without hesitation.

Make a precise cut at the carotid artery on the roe deer’s neck, then lift the roe deer’s legs upside down to let the blood flow.

After the blood in the cavity was drained out, he used a small knife to cut the skin along the central axis of the abdomen, then opened the chest and took out all the internal organs.

First, peel off the skin of the two legs and separate the leg meat to eat at noon. Next, use the tip of the knife to measure the distance between the skin and the muscle and peel off the entire roe deer skin.

I haven’t done this job for a while, but Yue Feng’s performance was still pretty good. He peeled the skin very completely without making any mistakes or accidentally gouging a hole.

From beginning to end, Wu Keji didn’t say a word, just watched quietly. When Yue Feng finished his work, he nodded with satisfaction: “Not bad, your skills of disemboweling and skinning have improved, but you just need to be proficient!”

Yue Feng wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve and said, “Normally I don’t do much, it’s always Xiao Tao who fiddles with this thing!
How did you find those roe deer just now?

I followed your direction and didn’t see anything before the shooting. Even when the gunshot was heard, I only saw a gray shadow.

This distance is estimated to be about two or three hundred meters away!”

“It’s about 320 meters!
I have had good eyesight since I was a child. When we climbed over the ridge, I saw fresh footprints of these roe deer on the snow pile on the opposite slope!
I didn’t stop cooking just to clean them up while I was on the road!”

“hiss……”

After hearing Uncle Wu’s explanation, Yue Feng and his companions were surprised. Wang Chao and Ma Liang looked at each other and gasped.

The more professional a person is, the more intuitive he is about the quality of his shooting skills.

If it is a wide area without any obstacles, Wang Chao and Ma Liang can hit seven or eight out of ten targets with a 56mm rifle at a full-body target three hundred meters away.

But now they were in the mountains and forests. They found the target in the gap of the woods from more than 300 meters away, and then shot him dead with one shot.

Even the legendary players in the team may not be able to perform such an operation 100% confidently.

“Uncle, how did you practice your shooting skills? It’s too straightforward!” Xiao Tao came forward and asked with a licking face.

“Haha, there is no shortcut to marksmanship, the only thing is practice!

But I can tell you some methods to train your eyes while hunting in the mountains!
When looking for your target, you should consciously scan the entire area with your eyes and look for differences in color blocks!
Wild boars and bears have black hair, while roe deer and deer have yellow hair. When you get far away, you can see black and light yellow hair.

Against the backdrop of the snow, it’s actually very easy to distinguish once you find a way!
Although human eyes can see clearly in the distance, without focusing, they can only observe roughly. If you want to see more clearly, you must consciously concentrate your vision!
For example, if you stand in this position now and look in the direction I point, there is a small pile of blood in the snow. I can see it at a glance. Can you try to see it?”

Hearing this, several people including Yue Feng looked over.

But unfortunately, knowing how to use your eyes does not mean that you can see clearly immediately. Yue Feng tried for a long time but still could not find the red dot.

Xiaowu was the same. His eyes were wide open and tears were almost coming out, but he couldn’t see.

On the contrary, Xiao Tao, after trying a few times, patted his hat and said, “I saw it! There is a small pile on top, and there are three extra blood drops, two large and one small, next to it, right?”

“Haha, you got the hang of it! There are indeed a few drops of blood! I didn’t expect, Xiaofeng, that there is a clairvoyant in your hunting team!”

Uncle Wu sighed with a smile.

Yue Feng: “Xiao Tao’s eyesight is much better than ours. He was the first one to spot this eagle!
We were also making a fire on the mountain to cook, and Xiao Tao saw an eagle circling in the sky. Later, I figured out a way to catch it! “

“That’s called clairvoyance, Uncle Wu! Can I become a sharpshooter with my good eyesight?
My shooting skills are not very good, not as good as Xiaowu and my brother Feng’s shooting skills, I always thought it was nonsense! “

“For ordinary people, good marksmanship is developed through the use of bullets. If ten bullets don’t work, try a hundred. If a hundred bullets don’t work, try a thousand. As long as you work hard, you will eventually be able to improve!
If you want to be good at shooting, use your heart, not your eyes!
Once you find the feeling, aiming becomes an unnecessary action and you can hit the target no matter how you shoot!
Among the old hunters of our generation, there are a few who are really good at shooting!”

When Xiao Tao heard that shooting skills require careful practice, he became even more curious: “How do you shoot with your heart? When you first mastered your shooting skills, how did you shoot?”

Wu Keji did not hide anything and said with a smile: “At the beginning, we just aimed and shot, and the bullets fell roughly within a certain range. After shooting more, I gradually got the idea in my mind.

For example, how far is the distance between the person and the target? The farther the distance, the higher the muzzle should be raised, because the bullet leaves the gun in an arc!
For example, whether there is wind around, the wind will affect the trajectory of the bullet after it leaves the gun. You should be aware of this before pulling the trigger.

Finally, every gun has its own temperament. Some have a tight trigger, while others have a loose trigger, which will affect the timing of pulling the trigger.

After you have mastered the art of shooting, don’t change guns easily. For example, I have used the barreled gun in my hand now. Since I changed the barrel, I have fired at least several hundred rounds. Now I am completely familiar with it and can shoot wherever I want! “(End of this chapter)
