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

Chapter 68: Jackals Stealing Deer

This male sika deer, which was of considerable size, weighed about two to three hundred kilograms, but was surrounded by more than ten jackals. It bumped into the jackals left and right but could not break out.

Moreover, not all the jackals surrounded the sika deer. Even the jackal who was on guard just now, brought two jackals with him, and came near Chen Weidong and Li Shengli, howling at them.

These jackals are very smart. They know the power of the fire sticks in human hands, but they are reluctant to give up the meat in their mouths.

Therefore, they did not attack them directly, but sent a few to warn them, and the remaining seven or eight surrounded the sika deer.

"Weidong, there are quite a lot of jackals here! We can't take action now!"

Li Shengli said slowly.

Chen Weidong nodded. It was important not to take action. If they fired a shot and let the deer run away, it would be a waste of effort. Their target this time was the deer.

Neither of them had much interest in jackals, as the profit from hunting them was too small. Although jackals belong to the Canidae family and have the word "dog" in their name, their meat was very unpalatable and extremely smelly.

Besides, their fur was not valuable. Guan Jian was a jackal that held grudges very much. Chen Weidong did not want to anger them unless it was absolutely necessary.
Chen Weidong thought for a moment, then said to Li Shengli, "Brother Shengli, the deer is still alive and kicking, don't rush to shoot."

"Weidong, what you mean is, let the jackal take care of the deer for us first! And then we can snatch it away?"

Li Shengli said.

"Ah."

Chen Weidong nodded. Firing a gun now would easily scare the jackals. The sika deer was not fatally injured, so Chen Weidong decided to let the jackals hunt in peace.

Of course, if we can kill the sika deer with one shot, there is no need for so much trouble.
However, although Chen Weidong's shooting skills have improved a lot with the bullets, he is not a sharpshooter, especially since the distance from the hillside to the valley is still two or three hundred meters.
If you miss the deer when you shoot, and instead scare the jackals, the deer will run away, and it will be difficult to catch up.

If he encountered a herd of deer, he might approach them and shoot secretly, but these were deer being hunted by a pack of jackals, which was like fat meat right in his mouth. With the deer being delivered to his doorstep, Chen Weidong would definitely choose the safest way!
At the moment, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it.

Let these jackals take care of the deer first, and then you can go and snatch it away.

Then Chen Weidong and Li Shengli quietly watched the jackals hunting.

The attack of the jackal pack was very artistic. Two jackals always ran in front of the sika deer, preventing them from having the chance to charge, while the rest kept surrounding the deer, waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Suddenly, a jackal attacked from behind. The male sika deer anxiously used his horns to butt the attacking jackal.

The jackal in front was bitten on the neck by the jackal next to it when it stretched out its horns.

The male sika deer struggled hard and jumped to dodge the attacking jackals.

Although the jackals did not attack together, the male sika deer was also very fierce.

But relying on his size and height advantage, he was able to fight with the jackals and not be at a disadvantage for a while.

Of course, it was also because these jackals were afraid of being injured and did not all rush towards the male sika deer.

However, Chen Weidong knew that the male sika deer was surrounded by jackals, and if he didn't break out of the siege of the jackals, he would basically be dead.

I saw a jackal running back and forth, wagging its tail and howling.

While making various attacking postures to attract the attention of the male sika deer.

The jackal on the left and right took the opportunity to circle around the male sika deer's buttocks, jumped up and bit its bloody anus. The male sika deer howled in pain, raised its hind legs and kicked hard, and turned around angrily, trying to use its antlers to hit the jackal that attacked it.

Little did they know, the jackals had been waiting for this moment.

The moment it turned to the right, its anus was completely exposed to the jackal on the left.

The jackal on the right side nimbly dodged the kick from behind and kept biting the deer's anus until the deer turned around to butt it, then it let go and ran away.

The big jackal that had been feinting from the front seized the opportunity, jumped up quickly and bit the male sika deer's neck.

At the same time, the jackal on the left was biting the male sika deer's anus and tearing it apart with all his strength, bringing up a stream of blood. The painful male sika deer jumped and howled.

When the companions in front and on the left exerted their strength, the jackal that had escaped quickly turned back and bit the male sika deer hard on the eye when he lowered his head to collide.
The remaining jackals also quickly surrounded at this moment. Although some jackals were kicked and knocked away from time to time, it didn’t take long for the large jackal to catch the deer and start howling miserably.

Chen Weidong saw the male sika deer fall to the ground. The remaining jackals tried to surround it quickly, but they saw that the sika deer could not escape.

He immediately shouted to Li Shengli: "Brother Shengli, shoot!"

"Just scare them off."

Chen Weidong reminded him again. He was not merciful.

You have to know that jackals have a strong sense of revenge. He just wants to snatch it from this group of jackals. Unless he can kill the jackal king with one shot and kill his head, all the other jackals will scatter.

Otherwise, once the jackal pack is angered, more than ten jackals will rush over and it will be difficult to deal with them.

Chen Weidong was not confident enough that he could kill each of these running jackals with one shot.

"Weidong, I understand!"

Li Shengli smiled. He often hunted in the mountains and was very familiar with the habits of jackals and dogs. This group of creatures was very difficult to deal with, especially the close coordination and cooperation between the jackals. These little guys were not big, but they could repeatedly hunt animals that were much larger than them.

For example, this male sika deer was carefully controlled from beginning to end.

As he was talking, Chen Weidong had already started firing his gun.
The two men shot at the group of jackals on the hillside. They would not go down easily until they forced the jackals back.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Two loud gunshots shook the entire valley. The jackals were obviously frightened by the sudden gunshots.

A bullet hit a jackal, which immediately jumped up in fright.

The entire pack of jackals took a few steps back, but seeing the sika deer in front of them, they did not run away.

After all, this was the deer they had shot with great difficulty, and they were reluctant to let it run away without even tasting a single bite of meat.

One of the largest jackals roared, and all the jackals stopped and started howling at Chen Weidong and Li Shengli on the hillside.

Heihu, Dacai and Ercai, the three dogs immediately responded by barking. Dogs that can be taken to the mountains to hunt, especially when their owners are by their side, are generally not too cowardly.
