Xing'an Mountains 1984: Starting from climbing mountains to support the family

Chapter 67 Jackal

Chen Weidong stretched out his finger and touched the blood. It was obvious that the blood had just solidified and it seemed to be still warm to the touch.

"Weidong, look, there are some hairs here, they must be from a jackal."

At this time, Li Shengli picked up a handful of hair from under the tree branch next to him and handed it to Chen Weidong.

"Brother Shengli, it looks like the jackals are targeting these deer!"

Chen Weidong nodded. The appearance of a jackal is similar to that of a dog. Its body fur is reddish brown or grayish brown, with a small amount of needle hair with black-brown tips. Its belly is lighter in color. Its limbs are short. Its ears are short and blunt at the ends.

The tail is long, the forehead is raised, the nose is long, the muzzle is short, wide and square, the back hair is short, the tail hair is slightly long, the tail is thick, and the tail tip is black.

Jackals are social animals, and they live in groups of two or three, usually seven or eight, or even ten or more.

Generally, jackals have stronger physical fitness, better teamwork, and even better sense of smell, vision, hearing, IQ, skills, etc. than hunting dogs.

The hunting dogs are completely at a disadvantage, and none of them can compare to the jackals, so most of them will die when they encounter a pack of jackals.
They would choose to hesitate, no wonder Dacai and Ercai were a little anxious just now, but what surprised Chen Weidong was that Heihu did not have such feeling. Chen Weidong could only attribute it to the old dog's spirituality or the bloodline of the Oroqen hunting dog.

"Weidong, what should we do now? Jackals are not easy to deal with!"

Li Shengli said with some concern that jackals are ferocious and very difficult to deal with. Not only do hunters not like to deal with them, but the wild beasts in the mountains also don't like to deal with them.

"Brother Shengli, let's go take a look first!"

Of course, Chen Weidong also knew how cruel the jackals were, but he was unwilling to just give up halfway and leave without even taking a look.

What's more, Chen Weidong is confident. The Hanyang rifle has two magazines and can quickly fire ten bullets. Together with Li Shengli and the three dogs, Chen Weidong is not too afraid now.

"Okay! Weidong, I'll listen to you!"

Li Shengli was also very straightforward. After spending some time together, Li Shengli discovered that Chen Weidong was not only very experienced in dealing with people, but also had a lot of experience in hunting.

If Chen Weidong didn't have a young face, Li Shengli would probably want to call him "Brother Weidong" instead, because when he was with Chen Weidong, he felt that he was the young man. Li Shengli attributed it to the maturity of a young man.

Chen Weidong didn't know what Li Shengli was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely laugh it off. After all, he was already 68 years old before his rebirth, a full generation older than Li Shengli. According to his age, he could be his uncle!
Then Chen Weidong and Li Shengli immediately chased after them with their dogs.

Two people and three dogs, one behind the other, quickly climbed several hillsides. When the chaser's whole body feels hot,

Suddenly the three dogs stopped. Black Tiger raised his head high and barked at Chen Weidong twice.
Then his body leaned forward slightly, motionless, and looked warily towards the hillside not far ahead.

Dacai and Ercai were shouting towards the hillside in front of them.

"Weidong, there is a jackal ahead." Li Shengli reminded.

Without Li Shengli's reminder, Chen Weidong also saw it. Following the direction of the dog's barking, he saw a jackal with yellow skin, black tail and white belly.

At this time, it was on the hillside, looking at Chen Weidong and others vigilantly, and occasionally turning around to whistle at them. The sound was like a strange bird call. Obviously, this big jackal had already discovered them.

When Chen Weidong and Li Shengli discovered the jackal, they did not stare at the jackal on the hillside, but immediately looked around vigilantly.
You must know that jackals are social animals and are very smart. Like wolves, the appearance of a jackal will
They are often accompanied by a group of them. If you see a group of jackals in the mountains, be careful as they are very fast. But if you only see one, be even more careful as there may be other jackals already behind you!
Li Shengli and Chen Weidong obviously understood this, but there were no jackals around who wanted to attack them. And the three dogs did not give any other hints, which meant that there was only this jackal in front of them.

"Weidong, are you going to start the fight?"

Seeing that there was only a jackal blocking the road, Li Shengli was a little undecided.

"Brother Shengli, don't shoot yet! Since there are jackals here, maybe the deer are just ahead. Don't scare them away, or we will lose more than we gain."

Chen Weidong reminded them that the jackal kept barking at them but didn't dare to come over, obviously trying to scare them away!

The black tiger did not show any fear. Instead, he looked at the big jackal in the distance that was jumping back and forth provocatively and eagerly wanted to rush over.

"Well, in that case, I'll let Dacai and Ercai drive it away!"

Li Shengli gave orders to the two dogs.

At this time, the black tiger was already ready to take action. How could we curb the hunting nature of the hound?

Chen Weidong nodded and said to Hei Hu, "Go ahead."

In an instant,
The three dogs, like arrows shot from a bow, jumped out from the bushes with a whoosh.

In fact, Chen Weidong and Li Shengli only dared to release the dog when they saw a jackal. Although the jackal was not big, less than half the size of Dacai Heihu, it was very fierce when fighting.

One-on-one or one-on-two may not be a problem, but three-on-six or three-on-ten, letting the dogs go is just suicide.

Faced with a dozen jackals, even a tiger has to retreat.

Of course, the tiger's retreat does not mean that the tiger cannot defeat the jackal, but the jackal is more difficult to deal with and the tiger is afraid of getting hurt.
I don't want to kill them. Tigers usually hunt in the wild without getting hurt unless they are very hungry.

Chen Weidong and Li Shengli followed and rushed over. Facing the fierce jackals, when the hounds attacked,
The hunter must follow behind as far as possible, so as to give the dog courage and to ensure his own safety to avoid being ambushed.

The jackal was also a bully who only bullied the weak and feared the strong. After barking twice, it saw the two people and three dogs coming at it aggressively, so it immediately turned around and ran towards the hillside.

"Black Tiger, stop chasing!"

Chen Weidong shouted, and at the same time Li Shengli also stopped Dacai and Ercai.
"Weidong, there is a big valley after this hillside."

Li Shengli reminded.

"Brother Shengli, let's be careful! The jackals are probably right below the valley."

Chen Weidong guessed that the jackal just now was obviously a sentinel.

After Chen Weidong and Li Shengli climbed over the hill, they stopped on the top to catch their breath. Then they looked towards the valley and found a group of jackals. However, they did not find any deer, only a large sika deer!
At this moment, a group of jackals were surrounding it. The sika deer was running back and forth along the valley, trying to break out of the jackals' encirclement, but the jackals had already surrounded it and it could not escape.
