After eating and drinking, the two men and the monkey set out on their journey home.
I have to say that Jixiang is indeed a good helper in hunting.
About half an hour later, when Chen Wang and Chen Dazhuang were talking and chatting, the little monkey suddenly squeaked and pointed at the bushes not far away.
The two of them looked over there and noticed some movement in the bushes.
Chen Dazhuang decisively took out his shotgun, aimed, and gradually approached.
Then, a pheasant suddenly flew up from the grass.
Chen Dazhuang fired decisively, and the bullet hit the pheasant. The pheasant, which was trying to spread its wings and fly high, crashed directly, and after flapping its wings a few times on the ground, it became motionless.
"Sure, but it's not very profitable!"
Chen Wang joked with a smile.
Pheasants are not valuable and not very tasty.
On the contrary, bullets are not cheap, and it is also difficult to make this kind of shotgun shells yourself.
"Damn, who knew it was this thing!"
Chen Dazhuang turned around and glared at him, then walked over to pick up the pheasant, took out the urea sack tied around his waist and put it in.
"It's not a loss, at least we are not in the air force today!"
“That makes sense!”
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
"Jixiang is really awesome. He can even figure this out."
Chen Dazhuang praised the little monkey and gave him a thumbs up.
Jixiang didn't understand the meaning of this gesture and chirped at him.
Chen Wang also smiled and touched the little monkey's head as a reward.
After walking for a while, the little monkey did not always sit quietly on his shoulder. Sometimes it would come down and follow him for a few steps, and sometimes it would jump onto the tree next to it and somersault happily on the tree.
Chen Wang didn't care about it, but was happy to see it happen.
There are mountains behind Chenjia Village. If nothing unexpected happens, he will never settle down in the city in his life. He will come to the mountains often. There is no need to restrain his auspicious nature.
Even if Jixiang gets tired of living with him one day and wants to go back to the mountains, he will not stop him.
"What kind of fruit is this? It's so sour!"
Chen Dazhuang tasted the wild fruit that the little monkey had picked from somewhere, and it was so sour that his whole face wrinkled.
"Hahaha……"
Chen Wang couldn't help but burst out laughing.
He also had one in his hand, but he was not in a hurry to eat it. He was waiting for Chen Dazhuang to test the poison.
“Chichi…Chichi…”
The little monkey who sat on his shoulder again also laughed happily, pointing at Chen Dazhuang and mocking him.
"Okay, you two are making fun of me together, right?"
Chen Dazhuang pretended to be very angry.
Chen Wang and Jixiang were not afraid at all. Instead, they laughed even more happily.
Amidst the laughter and chatter, the journey back didn’t seem so boring after all.
When passing through a forest, Jixiang, who was sitting on Chen Wang's shoulder, suddenly became restless and looked around for something.
"Jixiang, what's wrong?"
Chen Wang asked.
"Did they find something big?"
Chen Dazhuang picked up the shotgun and an excited look appeared on his face.
Jixiang's cries became increasingly shrill, like the sound one would hear when a group of monkeys were in distress.
"Stop for a moment!"
Chen Wang also became a little nervous and stopped.
Chen Dazhuang responded, holding his shotgun tightly and keeping alert to his surroundings.
Animals that live in the wild all year round can instinctively predict potential dangers.
Just like Jixiang at this moment, he may not have seen what it was, but he has instinctively sensed the danger.
Chen Wang looked around carefully.
It is surrounded by a spruce forest, and each old spruce tree looks like a towering spires.
The trunk of this tree is usually cylindrical, very straight and thick, and so large that it takes several people to hug it.
“Squeak!”
The little monkey's voice suddenly changed, and he raised his right hand and pointed in a direction.
Chen Wang looked in the direction of the tree and locked onto a dead spruce tree. Only three or four meters of the trunk was left, and the trunk was cracked, forming a dark hole in the tree.
When he saw the tree hole, Chen Wang's heart skipped a beat instinctively.
"Brother Dazhuang, look at that, could it be a bear warehouse?"
Chen Wang pointed at the dead tree and asked in a low voice.
"Kumakura?"
Chen Dazhuang's face changed, his eyes looked towards the dead tree he was pointing at, and his pupils gradually contracted.
"Fuck, it really looks like Kumagura. Judging from Jixiang's reaction, there may be black bears hibernating in there, right?"
Black bears usually enter hibernation in late October to early November, and this process will last until March or April of the following year.
Among animals in nature, black bears can be called architects. The dens they build are very unique and are divided into sky dens and underground dens.
The Tiancang is on the ground, usually in a hollow dead tree hole. Black bears will clean the rotten wood inside the tree and spread hay and leaves inside.
The tree holes of spruce trees are large and solid, which are very suitable for providing black bears with a warm and comfortable hibernation environment.
As for the dicang, as the name suggests, it is a nest built underground.
Most of the time, pregnant mother bears will choose areas with dense trees and dig a cave more than one meter deep in the ground as their hibernation den.
"Most likely."
Chen Wang nodded seriously.
"Gurgle!"
Chen Dazhuang's Adam's apple moved, and he asked nervously, "What do you mean? Fight?"
He has been hunting for several years, but he has never shot a black bear.
I once encountered one. Because I was too scared, I only dared to shoot it from a distance. When I missed, I angered the black bear instead. I turned around and ran away without saying a word.
Fortunately, he ran fast and there were many obstacles in the woods, otherwise it would be very dangerous if he was caught up by the black bear.
