With Sheng Xiping around, how could it possibly get away?

Before the mountain fox could leap up, a gunshot rang out, and it was all over. The mountain fox's head was smashed, and it collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.

"I didn't expect this, there's actually an unexpected bonus. This year's wildcats are quite plentiful." Sheng Xiping stepped forward, kicked the dead wildcat on the ground, and muttered.

"Brother Xiping, you're amazing! You killed a mountain weasel with one shot. This thing is not to be trifled with, Third King."

Pan Fusheng and Sheng Xi'an rushed over and looked at the mountain fox on the ground, and couldn't help but sigh.

"What a coincidence! It's probably eating something right now. Let's go take a look."

Sheng Xiping was also quite curious, wondering what the mountain fox had been eating while hiding in the bushes.

So he took two steps forward and parted the bushes to check.

Behind the bushes, several pieces of animal remains lay scattered in a pool of blood; the flesh and internal organs had been almost completely eaten.

Only a few hooves remained, along with the head of a roe deer with its eyes open, staring blankly at the sky.

Judging from the size of the roe deer's head, Sheng Xiping could deduce that the roe deer weighed only about twenty pounds and was probably a cub.

It is estimated that when the roe deer herd passed through this area, they were ambushed by the mountain civets that were lying in wait in the grass. The adult roe deer escaped, but the cubs could not escape and fell victim to the mountain civets.

"Damn it, we're unlikely to get anything today." Sheng Xiping suddenly remembered something, quickly raised his gun, and fired two shots into the air.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Sheng Xi'an asked, puzzled, after seeing his older brother fire the gun.

"Just now, a herd of roe deer was passing by when they were ambushed by a civet. One of the baby roe deer couldn't dodge and was caught and eaten by the civet."

Those roe deer were frightened and might run off somewhere. It's estimated that they'll be gone before Jianshe and his group even reach the summit.

Sheng Xiping sighed. Today's siege was most likely ruined by the mountain weasels.

"Let's go ahead and take a look. It would be best if we could find any trace of roe deer. If not, there's nothing we can do. Once we meet up with Jianshe and the others, let's set traps somewhere else."

Sheng Xiping shook his head, bent down and picked up the carcass of the mountain fox from the ground.

This guy is quite big, weighing about 40 or 50 pounds. Anyway, at least we got something out of it, so today wasn't a wasted trip.

The three followed the roe deer's footprints on the snow and walked uphill for a short distance. Suddenly, the roe deer's footprints went downhill for about twenty or thirty meters before turning back uphill.

Then, Sheng Xiping discovered a round grass pit, which was where the mountain weasel was lurking and waiting for the roe deer.

Originally, the roe deer, having eaten its fill, wanted to find a place to lie down in the forest, but it was unexpectedly ambushed by a civet cat that had been lying in wait there.

Afterwards, the civet carried the baby roe deer to the bushes where they had been earlier to enjoy their meal.

There was a large patch of messy footprints around where the mountain fox was lying in ambush.

Perhaps, when the baby roe deer was caught by the mountain civet, the adult roe deer also thought of fighting the mountain civet to save the baby roe deer, but in the end it failed.

Sheng Xiping walked around and found that the roe deer's tracks were heading towards the top of the mountain.

"Perhaps, there is still a chance for them to be rebuilt."

Sheng Xiping looked up at the mountain, but he was in a dense forest and couldn't even see the top of the mountain.

Just then, several gunshots rang out in the distance.

Sheng Xiping's spirits lifted. "Oh, what happened on the other side of the border?"

After a few gunshots, the entire forest fell silent again. "You two drag the mountain weasel down the mountain, I'll go check it out."

Sheng Xiping slung his gun over his shoulder, gave Pan Fusheng and the others some instructions, and then strode up the mountain.

About half an hour later, Sheng Xiping arrived at the top of the mountain and saw Chen Weiguo and Zhang Zhijun sitting on the ground smoking.

In front of them were two sizable roe deer.

"Wow, not bad. I thought all the roe deer had run away."

Sheng Xiping was quite pleased; two roe deer and one civet cat—a good haul for the day. "Weiguo, your marksmanship is pretty good!"

"We had just arrived when the gunshots rang out down below. How come you fired so quickly?"

Chen Weiguo found it strange. They had agreed that forty minutes later, after Chen Weiguo and Wang Jianshe had set up their ambush, Sheng Xiping would go into the woods to chase the roe deer. Why did he start shooting so quickly?

"Ugh, don't even mention it. We were so stupid chasing after the roe deer, and then the mountain cats beat us to it."

Sheng Xiping then told Chen Weiguo and the others about his encounter with the mountain cat.

"I reckon that after being ambushed by the mountain weasel, the roe deer must have stopped running to wait for its companions, which caused the delay."

Upon hearing the gunshot, they panicked and ran away in a panic; otherwise, they would have run away long ago.

That's why they call it a silly roe deer, isn't it? It doesn't run away when it encounters danger; it's really quite foolish.

It's a good thing they're stupid; they've actually made things easier for Sheng Xiping and his group.

"Hey, what a coincidence, a fart that knocks down a sparrow." Chen Weiguo and Zhang Zhijun both laughed when they heard this.

"We had just arrived here when we heard gunshots from below. We quickly found a place to hide, and not long after, we saw a group of roe deer running up to us."

I didn't dare think too much about it and just opened fire. I was lucky today; I killed two in a row, and the rest escaped.

Chen Weiguo had just finished smoking, so he threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped on it twice.

Regardless, today's harvest was good; Chen Weiguo and his team have already gutted the two roe deer.

So the three of them dragged the roe deer down the mountain.

On the other side, Wang Jianshe and Gao Haining, who were hiding in another place, heard gunshots coming from below and across the street, and guessed that the roe deer had gone in that direction.
