The Rise of the Ranch King

Chapter 49 49. Wild boar herd

It took more than forty minutes to get back to the pickup truck. After all, David was almost sixty years old. He had to stop for a cigarette after walking a few hundred meters.

In order to reduce the weight, I would cut off pieces of meat with a knife from time to time and throw them to the dogs.

Lin Feng joked that if the pickup truck had parked further away, the deer would be eaten immediately.

The smell of blood is a huge temptation for predators in the forest. On the way back, I was stared at by unknown animals several times, but they just watched from a distance and did not dare to come up to grab food.

They should all be small carnivores. The northwest United States is not the African savannah, and you will not encounter groups of lions or hyenas.

The most threatening ones are brown bears and wolves. This forest is close to human settlements, bears are rare, and wolves can be dealt with. After all, they have guns and three dogs.

Lin Feng always held the Mossberg shotgun, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

Finding the car, David threw the white-tailed deer into the trunk.

Lin Feng found that a hole had been knocked into the car door, and the primer was leaking in some places. It was obviously done by some kind of animal, which made him very unhappy.

"It should be wild boars. Those things are very vengeful. We killed one near their den, and the remaining family members chased and hit our car." David analyzed.

Fake, Lin Feng is very energetic today.

There is no doubt that hunting can cultivate masculinity. Those who spend many years in the mountains and forests cannot be sissies.

What they didn't expect was that as soon as they got in the car, several wild boars rushed out of the forest, kicking up a cloud of dust.

One hit the driver's door and the car shook violently.

Lin Feng subconsciously stretched out his hand to block, and then immediately took out his pistol. The distance was too close and the scene was a bit chaotic. The shotgun was afraid of accidental damage, especially with three dogs nearby.

If these wild boars were smarter and went for the tires, Lin Feng might have to spend the night here today.

"This group of wild boars has made the boss crazy. It seems that the one who was killed is an important person."

David asked him to sit still, then started the car and prepared to drive away. If he wanted to fight against this group of lunatics, he should at least put some distance between them!

The scene was chaotic, with a group of crazed wild boars chasing a pickup truck.

No matter how fast they ran, they couldn't be as fast as a car. Lin Feng stuck his head out and shot back with a pistol.

It was just luck. The car was bumpy and the wild boar was moving at high speed. It seemed that not a single shot was hit.

Even if they hit, the small power of the pistol plays too big a role, and they can still continue to charge forward.

David has excellent driving skills and said it was much easier than chasing cattle thieves with his car!

Arriving at an open area, Lin Feng felt that the time was ripe.

He told David to curve and slow down, giving him a shooting angle.

This time I switched to Mossberg, aiming casually and shooting with European style.

I really hit an unlucky guy!

But the guy was still able to keep running forward after being shot, and he ran pretty fast.

This is the first time Lin Feng has seen an animal that was hit by a No. 12 shotgun and did not fall down immediately. This shows how rough the wild boar is and how thick its flesh is.

Another shot was fired from about five meters away, and this time the big wild boar fell to the ground.

David stopped the car, opened the sunroof and leaned out of the roof, then took aim and fired with his M70.

"BOSS, let me deal with the ones in the distance!"

The old man didn't seem to need to aim, he pulled the gun bolt frequently, and after several gunpowder explosions, three did fall down at the far end.

Infected by this guy's emotions, Lin Feng opened the car door and squatted down to aim at the nearest cub.

In order to prevent accidents, Lin Feng fired three shots.

The little cub couldn't resist the power of the shotgun, and fell to the ground and quickly stopped moving.

Lin Feng asked Wayne and the German Shepherd brothers to get out of the car to help, and leaned close to him to prevent the coquettish wild boar from rushing towards him.

One far away and one close, the two of them formed a blocking position with the help of pickup trucks. Their tacit cooperation quickly repelled the attack of the wild boars, and the rest fled in all directions when they saw that the momentum was not going well.

A total of eight were killed. Wild boars are uncontrolled wild animals in Montana and can be hunted at will because of their large numbers. Lin Feng had a great time today. It was the first time he shot so happily, as if he was playing a hunting game.

David got out of the car and smoked a cigarette, checking whether any wild boars on the ground were still alive to prevent them from pretending to be dead.

Wayne and the German Shepherd brothers also began to clean up the battlefield, and the three guys had a good meal again.

Although eating raw meat will cause parasites, they are outdoor working dogs. If they are raised as pet dogs, their combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly reduced.

"How to deal with these? Lin Feng asked.

This was his first time hunting and he didn't know how to dispose of the animal carcasses.

David said don't worry, there will be other animals here to clean up the battlefield.

"A large number of animals are killed every day on the African grasslands, and the power of nature will erase all traces."

David pointed to the woods in the distance, "Look there."

Lin Feng couldn't see clearly, so he took the binoculars from the car and discovered that it was a group of coyotes. They probably smelled the blood and came over to have a dinner. It looked like they were going to get a good deal today.

There are scavenging birds hovering in the sky, and mustelids jumping in the bushes, it is estimated that this place will turn into a party paradise after they leave.

Lin Feng planned to take a photo with the strongest wild boar, but David threw his polarized goggles over.

David held up his thumb and said, "It looks cooler this way."

It feels good, and Lin Feng plans to buy one.

Everything was ready, he waved to the coyotes and then started the car and left.

Lin Feng suddenly thought of something, got out of the car, cut off two wild boar legs with a knife, put them in a bag and threw them into the back of the pickup truck.

David asked him what he wanted to do, and Lin Feng smiled and said he would find out when he got back.

From what they saw in the rearview mirror, they didn't go far before the wolves approached the pile of wild boars and began to eat. The carrion birds in the sky also swooped down to eat.

"To them, we are gods." David smoked.

It was definitely an exciting day for Lin Feng. He fell in love with hunting and planned to go into the woods every now and then to raid.

It's a pity that David poured cold water on him.

"BOSS, you don't have a hunting license yet. In theory, your actions today violate federal law."

Of course Lin Feng knew that the United States had specialized hunting police, but there were many private lands in pastoral areas, which were troublesome to manage and prone to disputes. In addition, the locals were tough, so even if they found illegal hunting, they usually turned a blind eye. Only one eye.

The prerequisite for obtaining a hunting license is to have a gun license. To obtain a gun license means that Lin Feng must first obtain the E2 visa that Ms. Laura mentioned before, which is the "mini green card."

A set of procedures will have to wait until at least next year.

Back at the ranch, Charlie arranged the cattle and sheep in an orderly manner.

"How did you capture it?"

Seeing the white-tailed deer in the back of the pickup truck, Charlie smiled and nodded.

"Lin gave it a shot and the three little guys chased it to the stream. It was a team victory for Lakeside Ranch."

"By the way, we also killed eight wild boars. Those guys were very tough and crashed the pickup truck, Fuck."

After David finished speaking, he pointed to several holes in the car. The pickup truck that has been on the ranch all year round will inevitably have some scars. These can be regarded as medals of merit.

The afternoon was spent roasting venison, something David was very good at growing up on a ranch.

Using a knife, he skinned the white-tailed deer cleanly. He cut off the deer's head and gave it to Lin Feng, saying that he could hang it in the room as a decoration, provided that all the sticky stuff in the deer's brain was cleaned.

Hunters have the habit of collecting prey specimens. Lin Feng was curious and after listening to David's suggestion, he planned to hang it in the living room.
