Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain
Chapter 685 Wounded
"Damn! A hanging sheep!!" The moment Yue Feng saw the shadow clearly, he made a judgment in his heart.
This ravine was indeed where the goat rested, but it didn't spend the night at the spot on the pine branches that Yuefeng had seen during the day. Instead, it rested near a low grove of trees about ten meters below the ravine.
Yue Feng was certain that Xuan Yang's escape was not because he had discovered him.
Ninety-nine percent of the time, it was because the various noises made by the eagle and the black eagle fighting above frightened the hanging sheep, which caused it to flee.
This situation can be considered a good thing in a bad way.
At the very least, since no one was detected, even if the ram escaped temporarily, it certainly wouldn't be on high alert.
Ordinary birds of prey cannot hunt stag goats. At most, it will observe for a day or two, and once it is sure there is no danger, it will definitely return to this overnight location.
On the other side, the culprit who scared away the hanging sheep is still at the end of the battle.
The great black eagle descended from tens of meters in the air to a low altitude, and the eagle owl crouching in the tree also launched an attack.
If the Great Black Hawk didn't have night vision, it would definitely be at a disadvantage against the massive Eagle Owl.
However, as a mutant creature with a cheat code, it was not at a disadvantage in close combat with the eagle owl.
Less than ten meters in the air, the eagle owl flapped its almost silent wings and launched an attack on the black eagle as it pursued it.
The black eagle simply flapped its wings a few times to accelerate and escaped the eagle owl's first attack.
Next, it was time for the Black Hawk to demonstrate its flying and combat skills.
The great black eagle vigorously flapped its wings to climb higher and break free from the eagle owl's entanglement. When the height difference was about fifteen meters, it suddenly spread its wings and tail to turn in the air.
The next second, its wings folded, and the entire eagle, like a spear, pierced straight towards the eagle owl.
With a muffled thud, the eagle owl was kicked by the black eagle, and instantly a large number of feathers fell down.
After its successful attack, the Black Hawk immediately turned around in mid-air and launched a second attack while the Eagle Owl struggled to stabilize its flight.
*Thud!* Another kick!
This kick was about as powerful as the first one, but the landing point was much more tricky, striking Diao Xiao directly from above in the neck.
In an instant, the eagle's flight control system completely crashed, and it spun and fell from the sky.
The black eagle followed suit and flew downwards. Just as it was about to land, its steel talons gripped the eagle owl's wings tightly, and almost simultaneously, it lowered its head and bit down hard.
Boom.
The eagle owl, severely injured by the eagle's attack, hadn't even realized what was happening when the large black eagle bit off its spine at the back of its neck, where its head was connected to its head, and it immediately collapsed, unable to move.
Quack, quack, quack!
The victorious black eagle, like a triumphant general, clucked as it stepped over the corpse of its defeated foe. A few seconds later, it began to pluck its feathers.
Following the eagle's movements, Yue Feng took a few steps and quickly found his large black eagle.
"Big Black Hawk is really something, he killed that Hateful Fox! Still eating? Didn't you eat enough tonight?"
Yue Feng crouched down and glanced at it, then casually stretched out his arm to block the eagle.
The Great Black Eagle didn't kill the eagle owl for food; it had just eaten a full crop before dark, and most of its crop was still undigested.
Seeing its master extend his arm, the black eagle released its grip on its prey without hesitation and jumped directly onto Yue Feng's arm.
Quack, quack, quack!
"Alright, alright, I know you're tough. Kill this troublemaker!"
Yue Feng patted the eagle's chest to comfort it, and soon the big black eagle comfortably fluffed up its feathers.
Yue Feng glanced at the eagle's corpse one last time, then left it there without doing anything else, and rode the eagle back home.
The night's investigation wasn't great, but it wasn't bad either. At least the person wasn't exposed in the world of "Hanging Sheep" (a derogatory term for someone who seeks information elsewhere), and now the objective has been achieved.
We'll bring people over again tomorrow morning when it's light, tie them up with ropes, and go down to check in detail where the rams sleep and spend the night.
Yue Feng strolled back, and after about an hour, he returned to his campsite.
"Who?"
From a great distance, a low shout could be heard coming from a tree in the darkness, accompanied by the sound of a weapon being cocked.
"Number Five, it's me! Have Number Two and Number Three returned?" Yue Feng identified himself and inquired about the others.
"Just got back, treating his wounds in the tent! Number Two got injured!" Number Five said in a deep voice.
"I'll go take a look!" Upon hearing this, Yue Feng jogged off to the tent.
Inside the tent, the acetylene lamps emitted a fairly bright light.
Number Two is sitting on the mat, and Number Three is bandaging his wounds.
"What happened? Are you injured? Is it serious?" Yue Feng asked as he entered the room.
Number Two curled his lip indifferently: "A minor injury. I've been a hawk my whole life, and I got pecked in the eye by a sparrow! And then some Russian who was pretending to be dead gave me a cut!"
"How's Number Three? Is he alright? How did the battle go?" Yue Feng continued to ask.
Number Three replied, "I'm fine! Number Two's wound isn't deep either; it was just a cut from the tip of a knife, and it doesn't even need stitches!"
We couldn't find Dalin, whom Xiaowu mentioned; he's most likely perished! But we found our other companion, Tianming, and brought him back!
This child suffered a lot and survived, but will most likely be left with a disability!
"What happened? Where are you injured?" Yue Feng's heart sank when he heard the words "disabled".
Xiao Wu and his friends are all quite young; it would be a real shame if they became disabled.
Number Three explained, "Both of my Achilles tendons were severed, and I have numerous injuries on my body and legs from the interrogation!"
External injuries heal quickly, but this Achilles tendon was severed for too long. Even if I send it to a military hospital now, it's unlikely it can be reattached; the tendon is already cramped!
I used field first aid techniques to temporarily fix the constricted hamstring to the outer calf muscle band. If it can be reattached in time, it might even regain some function!
Yue Feng nodded after hearing Number Three's explanation and went to Tianming, who was lying on the ground: "Tianming, how are you feeling?"
Tianming's complexion was even worse than when Juntian had just returned. Hearing the noise, he opened his eyes and glanced at Yue Feng: "Brother Feng, my leg, my leg is ruined!"
Yue Feng had met Tianming once before, and he was a tall and thin young man then. Now, on their second meeting, he had become this wretched creature.
Upon hearing "Brother Feng," Yue Feng's heart clenched instantly. This was a young man about his own age; if he were truly crippled, how would Yue Feng live the rest of his life?
"Don't panic, I'll find someone to treat you! Number Four, call Number Five in, my brother needs to be taken down the mountain for treatment immediately! Xiao Tao, cut down some small trees to wrap the stretcher!"
"Okay!" Xiao Tao replied, picked up his hand axe, and went out of the house. Then, Number Five, who was on night duty, also came in from outside.
"My brother's injury can't be delayed any longer, or his legs will be completely ruined!"
Now we need the two of you to carry the wounded down the mountain and then go to the nearest village to seek medical treatment!
"Contact my brother Jun directly about this. I'll give you his phone number, remember it!"
Number Four and Number Five were slightly taken aback when they heard Yue Feng's arrangement, but they still firmly replied, "Yes!"
These two knew about Xiao Wu's relationship with Yue Feng. Before Yue Feng returned, they thought that at most, it would be humanitarian treatment at most. After all, this place was very far from the village at the foot of the mountain, and if people were taken away, the safety of the camp would be compromised.
Their primary task was to protect Yue Feng's safety; everything else had to wait.
Unexpectedly, Yue Feng didn't hesitate at all when faced with this problem. Even at the risk of increasing his own safety, he had to treat the wounded first.
Soon, Xiao Tao returned carrying two ash tree trunks, each as thick as a wrist.
By wrapping the spare leg wraps around the tree trunk, a makeshift stretcher was quickly created.
Yue Feng gave the number to contact Ye Jianjun to No. 4, and then the two of them carried the stretcher down the mountain overnight.
After seeing Tianming off, Yuefeng returned to question Number Two.
"Number Two, have you dealt with the Russian bears?"
Number Two nodded: "Four men, all eliminated! We also recovered their weapons! They're hanging in the corner of the tent!"
"You didn't miss anything, did you?" Yue Feng continued to ask.
"We're not sure if there are any other squads, but this four-man squad is definitely wiped out!"
"No gun used?"
Number Two's lips curled up slightly: "No guns used! Just a few lousy fry. Number Three and I were right in front of them, and they didn't even notice!"
Damn it, if I hadn't been careless and gotten slashed, this mission would have been perfect. Now, at best, I'd only pass!
We captured their weapons, searched their tents thoroughly, but found nothing of value, so we burned them before we left!
Yue Feng nodded after listening: "None of us understand Russian, otherwise we could have asked a prisoner for information. Let them die, it's a way of avenging our people! I'll recommend you for commendation when we get back!"
Number Two touched his bandaged arm: "Numbers Four and Five are going down the mountain to take the wounded. Tonight, there will only be the two of us left in the camp!"
What are our plans next?
Yue Feng said, "Those who are not injured will take turns on night watch tonight to ensure adequate safety!"
Number One should be back by tomorrow!
I just went to the area where I found the suspicious location during the day, and if nothing unexpected happens, I should have found the target!
An eagle owl was fighting with my falcon. The noise of the two eagles fighting startled the goat hiding in the bushes and it ran away!
We need to go there again tomorrow, tie a rope and go down to see exactly what the situation is at the place where the sheep is hanging!
The advantage is that if the goat hasn't found me, it's highly likely it will come back. Once we've determined where it's landed, we can make further arrangements!
"You found a hanging sheep? What does it look like?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tao's eyes widened immediately, and Xiao Wu, who was next to him, also cast a curious glance.
Based on the fleeting glimpse he had just caught, Yue Feng described the ram as follows: "This ram is slightly larger than an ordinary goat. Its back is darker in color, while its ribs and abdomen are lighter in color. It has very strong legs and can jump at least three or four meters."
The most striking feature is its head, which has two very thick, long horns that curve backwards. The size of the horns seems somewhat disproportionate to its body!
"Jumping three or four meters? The distance of a jump without any assistance?" Xiao Tao asked curiously after hearing this.
"Hmm! I saw something darting around like it could fly, leaping a few times on the rocks below the cliff and jumping to the shady side. Without moonlight, I couldn't see clearly and quickly lost sight of it!"
Xiao Tao: "No matter what, as long as we see something, it means we've come to the right place! If we find a place to sleep tomorrow, shall we proceed according to the original plan?"
Yue Feng nodded: "I thought it had to sleep hanging on a tree branch before, but judging from what we saw tonight, that shouldn't be the case!"
I'll get the specific details when I go see those short trees on the cliff tomorrow!
If we disregard the specific sleeping habits of those who prefer to sleep in cratered areas, then the plan of burying rock salt to create a feeding ground and then moving on to a different location should still be viable! The range of terrain options has expanded!
"Yeah! As long as it dares to choose a place with a slightly gentler terrain that we can get to, our job should be done!"
"hope so!"
……
After a while of discussion and deliberation in the room, Yue Feng took out paper and pen and further refined the details of the map he had drawn. He also added more details about the terrain he had traversed during the day to the map.
After completing the necessary tasks, Yue Feng re-arranged the night watch shifts for the existing personnel at the camp.
Even Xiao Wu, who was recovering his strength, was scheduled to work the night shift from 12 to 2 a.m.
After finishing his work, Yue Feng went on night duty or rested as usual, and soon lay down and fell asleep.
Everything was normal tonight!
The next morning, Yue Feng got up on time and made breakfast for everyone with Xiao Tao, who was on the last shift.
The camp is populated by a large number of men, all of whom have big appetites. The half-grown roe deer that was killed the day before yesterday has already been eaten up.
In the morning, Yue Feng and Xiao Tao killed the other female roe deer they had captured, then skinned, deboned, and cleaned the meat on the spot, and cooked a big pot of roe deer meat.
The roe deer meat here isn't even cooked yet, and Number One, who disappeared for several days, has returned, looking travel-worn.
"Number One!!" Yue Feng spotted the other person from a distance and immediately waved to greet him.
Number One waved and quickly walked to the camp.
"What's going on? Is everything alright?" Yue Feng asked with concern.
Number One nodded: "Absolutely! Those two idiot pursuers were led around in the woods for several days by me. They must have realized they were being tricked and turned back! How's the family?"
Yue Feng shook his head: "There's new progress in the search. Also, we rescued a few friends. Numbers 4 and 5 are carrying stretchers down the mountain to take the wounded!"
"Wounded? What happened? Were they gored by wild animals while hunting?"
"No, it was the Russian bear's poaching team! They've already been dealt with by Number Two and Number Three! Number Two even got injured and got a shallow cut!"
"Damn! People from the Russians? They dare to come here in the fall and act all high and mighty? You've already given away all your friends?"
"No, Xiao Wu and Jun Tian are still in the tent!"
Their injuries were relatively minor; they were also searching for wild sheep in the mountains! I let them join us first; more people means more strength, and it'll be a bit safer!
"Oh, if you're sure it's safe to keep this a secret, then stay here. We'll go down the mountain together when we get back!"
"Is the meat in the pot cooked yet? I haven't had a proper meal these past few days wandering around the woods. Let me have a sip of hot soup first!"
"no problem!"
