Because Wang Tianxiao and Cui Wanshan were carrying guns, they carried less on their backs, since they needed to be prepared for unexpected battles in critical situations.
Therefore, most of the supplies were carried on Liu Yuan and Wang Tianxin's backs.
Everyone helped bring down some food and drinks, and they started eating with hot water.
"Brother Cui, how long will it take us to find the bear?"
"It's hard to say. I've never been to Bear Ridge before, so I'm not familiar with the area. Also, because Bear Ridge is higher than where we are now, I don't know the vegetation composition or the terrain, all of which affect the bears' living environment."
"There's so much to it, tell me quickly, my brother knows nothing about it."
"If you're going to ask for advice, just ask. Why do you have to belittle your brother at the same time? Have you forgotten who was your mentor when you started hiking in the mountains? Now that you have a better master, you immediately look down on me, an old hand?" Wang Tianxiao patted Wang Tianxin's shoulder lightly and joked.
"Hehe, brother, didn't you say that people should strive for higher goals? I'm just trying to improve myself, so you should support me. Brother Cui, tell me quickly, what exactly did you mean by 'living environment'?" Wang Tianxin said with a grin.
Cui Wanshan watched his two brothers bickering and chuckled along.
He had heard Wang Tianxiao talk about his younger brother before, and knew that they hadn't gotten along very well in the past, but it seemed that their relationship had improved a lot now.
He was also happy for Wang Tianxiao.
During his visit to Yangziling, he noticed that Wang Tianxiao's personality was more cheerful and lively than before, and also much more composed. These were all changes that indicate a man is maturing.
As a good friend, he was genuinely happy.
"Okay, let me give you a general overview. There are two main types of bear dens: tree dens and earthen dens, or mud dens..."
"What is a tree nest? Does it mean living in a tree?" Wang Tianxin couldn't help but ask impatiently.
"Of course not. How could a bear live in a tree? Bears are already so powerful on the ground. If they could also climb trees, where would other animals live?"
"Then what about the tree nest you mentioned?"
Wang Tianxiao knew what was going on, of course, but since his younger brother wanted to ask Cui Wanshan, then let Cui Wanshan explain.
"A tree nest is a hole that a bear digs out inside a tree and hibernates there. We call that a tree nest. There is another type of bear that hibernates in caves, which we call earth dens. It depends on the local environment. I have seen both types."
"So that's how it is, bears hibernate?"
"It's hard to say for sure, but I've heard that only black bears hibernate. I've never seen other bears, so I don't know if they also need to hibernate."
"oh."
"Only black bears hibernate."
Liu Yuan said from the side.
"Uncle Liu, how did you know?"
"I knew it."
"Okay, I don't know if you're just bragging again, but I don't believe some of the things you say anymore. You talk as if you've done something amazing in the past."
"So you don't believe me, kid?"
"Haha, I believe you, of course I believe you. I will definitely believe what you say."
"Do you believe it or not?"
"Forget it, Uncle Liu, don't bother with a kid like him. Save your energy, we still have a mountain to climb later. Looking at this cliff, we definitely can't get up from this direction, we'll probably have to go around it from another place."
Seeing Liu Yuan and his younger brother acting like two little children, Wang Tianxiao hurriedly tried to stop them.
It's often said that the elderly are just like children, and that's certainly true.
Regardless of what happened in the past, there's no need to argue with a child. It's pointless. He didn't experience your era, so he won't understand. Even if you describe it vividly, he'll just think you're bragging.
This is why you can't talk about ice with a summer insect.
Truly confident people never need others' approval.
Whether he did it or not, and whether others believe it or not, he won't change his mind.
"Yes, Old Wang is right. We'll have to take a detour later."
Looking at the cliff whose original color was buried by heavy snow, Cui Wanshan said, "This location is too steep. Even when the weather is clear, we may not be able to get up there. Let alone now that the road is slippery with snow, it's even more of a dream."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go now."
Wang Tianxin was still very anxious.
"Tianxin, why are you still making such a fuss? I told you before we came out that you had to stay calm. Hunting is not a game, it's not a joke. If you keep wasting your energy like this, what chance do you have of surviving if you really encounter a bear?"
“You all have guns, right? Are you just going to stand by and watch me get mobbed by a bear? If it comes after me, you can just take it out and kill it.”
"Still talking!"
Wang Tianxiao said to his younger brother in a somewhat irritable and even serious tone, "I'll tell you again, hunting is a very serious and dangerous thing. If you don't understand this, you shouldn't come with me next time. I can't be so lucky every time and just happen to protect you. If you don't have a sense of responsibility, you'll cause a disaster sooner or later."
"Second brother..."
Wang Tianxin had actually been joking the whole time; he wasn't unaware of the seriousness of the problem.
Young people like to make jokes and talk a lot.
Wang Tianxiao wasn't unaware of what he was thinking, but he believed that people's character and habits were influenced by subtle, gradual processes.
If you are usually lazy and casual, it will be difficult for you to suddenly become composed and know how to behave properly when it matters.
