"Yeah, let's chase!"
The group followed the roe deer's tracks and chased after it. After receiving instructions, Lamei and Jasmine bravely went forward and soon disappeared from sight.
"Woof woof woof—"
Suddenly, Wax Plum and Jasmine shouted.
The group quickened their pace, only to find two well-built roe deer lying paralyzed on the frozen lake!
This frozen lake was just formed. The river at the foot of the mountain was frozen, but a section of the river or spring on the mountain was still flowing. Since the water was not flowing between the two sides, the flowing water reached the ground and formed a thin layer of frozen lake.
The frozen lake was slippery and covered with snow. The roe deer were fast and would often leap onto the frozen lake, sometimes breaking their hips in the process.
Now Jasmine and Winter Plum are barking loudly at the wailing roe deer by the frozen lake.
Scarface was overjoyed; he was incredibly lucky!
On my very first day out, I found two big, silly roe deer!
The group cautiously walked to the center of the frozen lake and saw that the hindquarters of two roe deer were broken. If they hadn't encountered them, they probably would have been eaten by wolves or other predators within a few days.
Without saying a word, Scarface fired two more shots into the eyes of the two roe deer.

Zhou Hongsong estimated, "The male roe deer weighs about 70 or 80 pounds, and the smaller female weighs over 60 pounds!"
Scarface laughed, "These two, once skinned, would have a hundred or so pounds of lean meat! Roe deer meat is even tastier than sheep meat!"
