Sheng Xiping gave him some more instructions on how to hunt roe deer, and then told Wang Jianshe and the others to move forward, go around the forest, and go to the top of the mountain to keep watch.
Meanwhile, Sheng Xiping and Zhang Zhijun found a place to rest.
While resting and checking their watches, about forty minutes later, Sheng Xiping and Zhang Zhijun got up and followed the roe deer's footprints into the second forest.
The so-called "second-crop forest" refers to the forest plots that were clear-cut a few years ago.
Generally speaking, forest land that has been cleared in the first year will be reforested and planted with saplings in the second year.
At the same time, the stumps left after the large trees were felled will sprout new buds and tender branches the following year.
Roe deer and deer both love to nibble on these tender branches and leaves.
Therefore, Sheng Xiping was quite certain that the herd of roe deer was currently feeding in this second-crop forest.
Sheng Xiping waved his hand, signaling Zhang Zhijun to be careful and watch his footing.
This is the first snowfall of autumn this year, and the ground beneath the snow is actually only frozen with a thin layer.
Because it rained first and then snowed, the dead branches and fallen leaves on the ground were soaked by the rainwater, unlike before when the leaves were dry and would make a sound when stepped on.
At this moment, people walking on the snow make almost no sound.
Sheng Xiping and Zhang Zhijun gradually approached the second-crop forest.
About 200 meters away from the second forest, you can vaguely see something running back and forth in the forest ahead, or foraging for food.
Sheng Xiping raised his hand, signaling Zhang Zhijun to stop moving forward, while he himself crouched down and continued to cautiously approach.
After moving forward a short distance, Sheng Xiping stopped and knelt down on one knee, aiming his gun.
