"Look at these paw prints, they're still fresh. This bear hasn't hibernated yet!"

Chen Dazhuang said with some excitement.

"It's only November now and it hasn't snowed yet. It's normal for a few of them not to hibernate, or they may have found a nest nearby."

Chen Wang analyzed while looking around.

“That makes sense.”

Chen Dazhuang nodded.

"Let's look around here to see if there's any Kuma Cangzi!"

"That's what I meant!"

"Be prepared and be careful."

Chen Wang gave a reminder, then opened the chamber of the shotgun and took out the shell and the remaining shotgun shell.

Then he took out a single bullet and a buckshot from his pocket and stuffed them in.

This is the safest combination.

Take a gamble with the single-shot bullet first. If you fail to kill the bear in one shot and the black bear rushes to you, then use your ultimate skill to get close to the bear.

The power and coverage of deer bullets make it almost impossible to miss if the distance is sufficient.

Afterwards, the two began to search the area carefully.

Because the prey was too dangerous, the two did not dare to act separately.

Hunting in the mountains is always accompanied by high risks. Even if everything goes smoothly and the harvest is not small, you still cannot take it lightly.

Master Chen Jianjun used to be a famous hunter in several villages. He was respected as "Chen Pao", but he almost died in the mountains.

After searching for a long time in the woods, I still couldn't find Xiong Cangzi.

"Maybe the bear just passed by here and left traces on the tree. Let's go to the front of the woods and take a look!"

Chen Dazhuang suggested.

Chen Wang nodded in agreement.

The two walked out of the woods and continued searching.

Chen Wang's sight suddenly fell on a small hill in front of him.

There was a cave entrance that was covered by weeds and trees. Chen Wang hurriedly walked closer and found that the cave entrance extended underground. It seemed to be quite deep and it was too dark to see clearly inside.

"It can't be in there!"

Chen Dazhuang also guessed something and whispered with excitement.

Black bears will dig their own holes to hibernate, and they will also look for naturally formed tree holes and caves.

Judging from the surrounding environment, this cave in front of us is very suitable for black bears to hibernate.

Not only that, the two also saw a lot of bear footprints next to the cave, indicating that the black bear had indeed been here.

The hole was too deep, and the two men had no way of seeing whether the black bear was inside, let alone climbing in to look for it.

"Clean up the area first, then I'll set up the gun and you can try firing a shot inside!"

Chen Wang made a suggestion.

"good!"

Chen Dazhuang immediately nodded in agreement.

So the two of them immediately got busy.

First clean and level the area around the hole, then like last time, find a suitable place to light the fire.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand things, just be prepared for the worst.

These are the preparations that have been passed down from generation to generation and must be made before killing Xiong Cang.

After completing all preparations, Chen Wang replaced the single-headed bullet in the gun chamber with deer bullets, stood three or four meters away from the cave entrance, and aimed the gun.

As long as the bear was awakened and crawled out of the cave, he would shoot it twice without hesitation.

At such a close distance, if two buckshot bullets were fired, even a bear would die twice.

"I shot!"

Chen Dazhuang gave a reminder.

"Open it!"

Chen Wang responded in a low voice.

"Bang!!"

Chen Dazhuang fired a shot directly into the cave, and there seemed to be an echo.

The two of them were alert, but after a long while, there was no movement inside.

Chen Dazhuang scratched his head and said with a bitter face: "It shouldn't be like this."

"It seems there is nothing in it. I found the wrong place."

Chen Wang shrugged.

The sound of a gunshot is no louder than the sound of a stick hitting someone. Logically, even if the bear inside is sleeping soundly, it should be awakened.

"Damn it, where did the bear go?"

Chen Dazhuang spat on the ground with a look of unwillingness on his face.

Bears in this season are fat and strong, and their gallbladders are at their best. Killing one means making a fortune.

"Let's go, let's come back here next time. I think the bear will choose to hibernate here again. Maybe it's not full and is still looking for food outside!"

Chen Wang said with a smile.

"I hope so."

Chen Dazhuang's face looked a little unhappy.

It was a waste of effort. Chen Wang was fine, but Chen Dazhuang was a little depressed.

Having agreed to Chen Wang and his father's advice, he wanted to find another marriage after the new house was built next year, and he was even more eager to make more money.

The family’s current savings are still far from enough to build a new house.

"Don't worry. The more you look at things in a positive light, the better your fortune will be."

Chen Wang saw his mood, patted him on the shoulder, and said something comforting with a smile.

"It's my problem."

Chen Dazhuang nodded and his mood improved a lot.

"Let's go on. Maybe good luck is just around the corner!"

"That would be great."

…

…

Two hours later, in a forest with dense vegetation.

"Awang, where is the good luck you mentioned?"

Chen Dazhuang carried a hunting rifle and looked at Chen Wang beside him with a gloomy expression.

In two full hours, they saw only a few birds.

Chen Wang gave a helpless smile and said, "The next one may not be today. You also said that our hunting luck has been pretty good during this period."

"Well, it's because I've had such a good harvest recently, and I didn't kill that bear, so I'm a little anxious. So, should I just go back today?"
