"But your marksmanship is truly amazing. Even with this kind of visibility and distance, you were able to take down two gray wolves. You're the best Chinese marksman I've ever seen."
Would I call you the strongest?
Xia Yu was not embarrassed.
"What to do with these bodies?"
"Take it back and skin it. I just bought two wolf tickets."
Hunting bears requires bear tickets, and hunting wolves requires wolf tickets. Because Xia Yu is rich, he let Joseph get some of both, and he doesn't feel bad if they are invalidated if he fails to kill the wolf.
"It's just that this one with the headshot is not in good condition."
"I don't really mind, go back!"
In Xia Yu's opinion, Jiang Baiying's safety is much more important than one skin or two skins.
As he spoke, he touched the other person's little hand.
"Xiao Jiang, do you still want to go to the bathroom?"
Xia Yu asked caringly.
"No, that's not necessary, Senior. I only discovered the wolf after I was already on top."
"That's good, let's go back."
Xia Yu put the pistol back into his waist, opened the shotgun, ejected two cooled shells directly, and reloaded two bullets.
The Joseph brothers each had a wolf, Xia Yu was in charge of guarding, and the group returned to the camp.
"These wolves might have followed the scent of the mountain lion's blood. Let's use bait to lure the brown bear out tomorrow."
Sitting around the campfire, Joseph analyzed as he peeled the skin.
"Wolves have very sensitive noses, but they can smell delicious food, but not danger."
Xia Yu was also very emotional. People die for money and birds die for food. Today, these two wolves died because of their own greed.
"If you're tired, go to bed first. You have to get up early tomorrow!"
"Okay, let's go to the tent first."
Xia Yu was the one shooting the whole time today, and he was really tired.
The conditions in the wild were limited, so they dug a large pot of snow water and boiled it. After brushing their teeth and washing their faces, they went into the tent.
After taking off his coat and getting into his sleeping bag, Xia Yu fell asleep first, but Jiang Baiying beside him couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
It wasn't because she was afraid. Being with her senior was the safest place. She was just recalling everything that happened today and was reluctant to see her senior leave.
Today is Xia Yu's fourth day in Maple Leaf Country. She will return home on the 31st at the latest. This means that she and her senior will be separated again this time, and they will not meet again until summer vacation.
With reluctance, Jiang Baiying finally fell asleep. When she opened her eyes again, she found that she was woken up by Xia Yu.
"Xiao Jiang, get up quickly! There's an aurora outside!"
Xia Yu's voice was full of excitement. He didn't expect that he could still see the aurora at almost four in the morning.
He took his camera and walked out of the tent, taking pictures of the aurora in the sky.
The green light bands kept changing in the night, illuminating the entire earth, which was breathtakingly beautiful.
Jiang Baiying, who followed him out, was also stunned. Is this the aurora?
There is a kind of aurora called romance; there is a kind of aurora called shocking; there is a kind of aurora called unforgettable. She and Xia Yu have another indelible and precious memory.
Xia Yu didn't care whether the aurora was romantic or not, he was just immersed in the magnificence of nature.
Since acquiring photography skills, his appreciation of beauty has been constantly improving. Beauty lies in the bones, not in the skin; beauty lies in the meaning, not in the form.
The aurora poured onto his face, and he felt the mood.
The super-rich have both money and free time. They measure the world on foot, to explore and discover the beauty of nature. Unlike ordinary people in the city who are busy making a living, they have not looked up at the starry sky for a long time. Their so-called travel is just checking in at various attractions. Apart from a few photos in their mobile phones, they do not leave any deep memories.
If Xia Yu had not obtained the system, he would probably be one of them. No matter how much he longed for the wild, poverty would prevent him from taking the first step, and he would spend his entire life busy only for his wife, children, and a warm home.
By the way, you have to have a warm bed before you can have a wife and children. The order cannot be reversed.
It’s different now. With the system, he has already changed his class.
What is Houlang? He is the Aquaman, the Aquaman who walked out of the fish pond!
No matter how brilliant and beautiful it is, it will eventually come to an end. I took the last photo and the aurora in the sky finally disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
"Still sleeping?"
Putting down the camera, Xia Yu added two pieces of firewood to the campfire and said.
"No more sleep."
Jiang Baiying shook her head and said.
"If you don't want to sleep, let's talk. By the way, Joseph brought a coffee pot."
There was no semi-automatic espresso machine in the wild, so Xia Yu used a moka pot to make two cups of coffee and handed one to Jiang Baiying.
He was on duty from three in the morning to six in the morning, and the two of them had a chance to chat, talking about Jiang Baiying's university life here and Xia Yu's interesting experiences in China.
They chatted until dawn, and Joseph and David walked out of the tent with disheveled hair and dirty faces.
"Good morning."
"Good morning. I made some Chinese porridge for breakfast. Would you like to try it?"
Xia Yu cooked meat porridge. He brought some rice with him before coming just to change the taste in the morning.
"Yeah, it's delicious, better than cereal."
Having eaten oatmeal for half my life, of course I think porridge tastes better, but I was still very happy to hear Xia Yu praised.
"Eat more. Once you're full, we can go all out and hunt the brown bear and go home."
The most important target of this trip is the brown bear. Xia Yu is not interested in foxes and reindeer. He is only interested in top predators.
"Okay, we'll put out a few more sets of bait then."
In addition to tracking prey, smart hunters also set bait and traps.
Because this time it is a gun hunt, traps are not used, but bait is indispensable.
After breakfast, Joseph took out some wolf meat and internal organs, mixed them together and wrapped them with gauze.
Brown bears have an excellent sense of smell, seven times that of a hound. With the wind blowing, they can even smell blood 18 miles away, which is even better than that of sharks.
The strong smell of blood can lure hungry brown bears closer.
Of course, other predators may also smell it, and then they have to be driven away manually.
Because of the wind yesterday, the snow was smoothed away and the four people completely lost any trace of the brown bear. However, there is always a way out. After hiking about two kilometers, they found new traces.
"It's another bear, and its paw is a circle bigger than the one yesterday."
Joseph gestured at the footprints and said.
"So we'll set up bait nearby?"
"OK!"
The four of them got busy, but because the brown bear was likely nearby, everyone was careful while working and kept an eye on their surroundings.
They didn't make a fire for lunch and just ate dry food, trying not to make any noise and attract the target's attention.
They stayed like this until the afternoon, when a huge brown figure came into the sight of the four people.
Finally it appeared. Wow, this brown bear looked like it weighed at least half a ton, and was completely different from the cute Big Bear and Little Bear in Boonie Bears.
