Chapter 280: A Cave to Escape the Snowstorm

The forest rangers finally found a piece of flat, sheltered land and set up camp to rest.

Only then did Yang Bo realize that his face had been frozen stiff without him noticing.

My fingers were numb and painful, and the mountain boots on my feet were soaked.

Part of it is snow water, and the other part is the sweat left by their long walk on the mountain road.

The four members of their forestry team hid in the tent.

Using the warm firelight, I boiled water and roasted my shoes.

Although the smell is extremely pungent, they have already gotten used to it.

Under such conditions, it is enough to have such an environment.

"Do you think our team is going in the wrong direction?"

Feng Yu looked at the map and said.

They started from the place where they found the poachers' missing traces, and conducted a zigzag search in four directions in groups of four.

Up to now, I have been walking for a whole day and have not found anything abnormal.

"possible……"

Yang Bo nodded, drew a line on the map, and said:
"Although our direction is still in the Golden Leopard's territory, it is in the exact opposite direction of Lin Feng's home."

"Based on the leopard's speed and the time it left, it is highly likely that it will not be here now."

The other two teammates also agreed with this statement.

Compared to the remaining three groups, their group is more like eliminating options.

If the poachers get lost in the woods, there is a good chance they will come here.

But if they are lucky enough to find a safe haven and not get lost in the blizzard, the probability of the other three directions is still higher.

Mainly because without the help of a locator, the possibility of tracking the clouded leopard is greater.

But they can't take it lightly!
It was already a very embarrassing thing for poachers to sneak into their patrol forest area.

If the poachers are allowed to escape again this time, regardless of whether they succeed or not, the forest police from top to bottom will be criticized.

By then, you will never be able to raise your head in front of your colleagues or brother units.

"I don't know what's going on with Lin Feng?"

Feng Yu looked at his satellite phone and said with some concern.

If he was a poacher, ambushing near Lin Feng's house, or even taking over Lin Feng's house, would definitely be the best option.

In this way, they not only had a place to shelter from the wind and rain, but also had enough food.

All that’s left is to wait patiently for the leopard to come to your door.

Therefore, Feng Yu called Lin Feng to warn him at the beginning at the suggestion of his leader.

"No call, everything should be fine."

Yang Bo is very optimistic, or rather, he understands Lin Feng.

He couldn't believe that there was a man who could easily pick up a 200-pound leopard and spin around in circles.

They will be subdued silently by poachers even though they have been warned in advance.

Feng Yu sighed and said:

"I hope there will be good news from the other three groups or the headquarters."

………………

At this time, the leopard family was stretching vigorously in the cave where the black bear was hibernating.

They had slept for a whole day and their bodies were stiff.

Not long after leaving Lin Feng's house, they unsurprisingly encountered a snowstorm.

Although the wind in the forest was blocked by the trees and did not seem to be as strong as in the wilderness outside, it was actually several times stronger in some places.

The big leopard has long been accustomed to this kind of weather and knows what is the best choice.

But its cubs were born only this year, and they need to successfully learn from it how to cope with various adverse situations while it can still protect them, especially on a snowy night like this.

This time, the family left Lin Feng's house well-fed, which was many times better than what it had experienced when it was with its mother.

Therefore, it does not regret bringing the cubs out in such weather.

By the second half of the night, the wind and snow were so strong that it was not a problem.

Even though the three cubs followed him, they could hardly withstand the wind and snow.

Therefore, the big leopard had to take these little guys to the nearest cave to temporarily take shelter from the wind and snow.

The nearest cave nearby is where the black bear chooses to hibernate.

In the past, it would not even dare to think about this, but now there is that human being sitting as a bridge of communication.

It thought that the bear would be willing to temporarily tolerate its family for one night.

The leopard princess did not forget to warn her cubs that this was just an isolated incident.

The caves where black bears hibernate are still very dangerous.

Especially for mother bears with cubs, it is best not to touch them if you can avoid it.

Unexpectedly, they waited for a whole day.

The big leopard stuck its head out, and the moonlit night in the North Snow Ridge was glittering with silver light...

But it was not in a hurry to go out hunting. The food it had eaten at Lin Feng's house had been almost digested and could still sustain it for a few more hours.

When the sky just gets light, more animals will come out to look for food, and its chances of hunting successfully will be greater.

As an excellent predator, it has plenty of patience and knows what is best to do.

The three little leopards, who had slept for a whole day, were also playing and fighting around their mother.

Occasionally, it would run out of the cave, leaving behind one plump plum blossom mark after another on the flat snow ground.

………………

The poacher who had managed to sneak into the woods was indeed lost.

It was by taking advantage of the snowstorm that they were able to successfully sneak into the North Snow Ridge.

Although bad weather is a little more dangerous, it is also their best protection.

They didn't expect that this snowstorm, which came in November, would be so big and so severe.

This directly disrupted their pace of advancement. In the snowstorm where they couldn't even open their eyes, they were forced to find shelter first and think about other things after they got through it safely.

But they feel that God is on their side to some extent.

Because after the wind and snow stopped, they were still freezing.

But we did not stray too far from the planned route and quickly found the original direction.

I just wonder where the leopard is now?
The heavy snow completely covered its traces.

That night, they continued to hide under a sheltered hillside and roasted snow rabbits.

While observing the not-so-detailed map in their hands, they discussed the plan they would implement next.

………………

Lin Feng didn't sleep well that night and had several nightmares in succession.

He started working as energetically as usual in the morning.

But he would feel restless from time to time, and he couldn't control himself, looking frequently towards the Beixueling Mountains in the west.

The little fat chick that occasionally came over to get a little chicken food didn't attract his attention as usual, and he didn't want to reach out and rub it a few times.

Lin Feng always felt that something bad would happen in Beixue Ridge today.

Suddenly, from the southwest, a flock of birds were startled from the woods, flew into the sky, and disappeared.

Lin Feng slowly turned around with a serious expression.

He remembered that direction. It should be the cave where the black bear chose to hibernate, right?
