Hunting 81: Gathering Goods in the Mountains, I Spoil My Ex-Wife to the Extreme

A person with great courage can kill a wolf single-handedly without fear of injury. If given a stick or a knife or gun, the chances of winning against the wolf are even greater, and it is even possible to kill it without taking any damage.

If you're armed with a firearm, like a shotgun, and you encounter a wolf, you're basically guaranteed to hit it every time.

Although tigers are the top predators in nature, Li Yunshan and Li Yunshi each carried a double-barreled shotgun, capable of firing two bullets at once.

Even if the range of a hunting rifle is only about sixty meters, as long as they don't panic and have a strong mentality, they can definitely kill the tiger if it dares to charge.

After all, a gun is fast from seven paces away, and accurate and fast within seven paces.

Unfortunately, although Li Yunshi had rich hunting experience, his preconceived notions about tigers and the fact that it was just him and Li Yunshan alone meant that his mental fortitude was not strong enough to face the tiger when they were alone.

However, the tiger unexpectedly turned around and left, which relieved Li Yunshi.

"Phew, that's terrifying."

Li Yunshi let out a long sigh of relief. He raised his hand to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead, glanced at Li Yunshan who was feeling regretful because the tiger had turned and left, and gained a clearer understanding of his younger brother.

"That third brother is incredibly audacious. When he encountered a tiger, he wasn't afraid at all; in fact, he seemed quite excited."

Li Yunshi thought to himself.

But then he thought, if his younger brother wasn't brave enough, he wouldn't have done something like going to the Red Star Forest Farm to hunt that man-eating tiger on his first hunting trip into the mountains.

"Big brother, shall we go take a look?"

At this moment, Li Yunshan watched the tiger's figure disappear from sight and turned to Li Yunshi.

In freezing weather, food is extremely scarce for tigers.

Although they were several hundred meters apart just now, judging from Li Yunshan's sharp eyes, the tiger's size didn't suggest it had eaten its fill.

In the wild, a hungry tiger, upon seeing them, will not only not attack but will turn and run away, unless the tiger is a kind-hearted person.

But is that even possible?

Moreover, even if they were holding hunting rifles, the tigers wouldn't understand what those things were.

"What's so interesting to see? Hurry up and take this gazelle back. You may not be afraid of tigers, but I am."

Li Yunshi shook his head and said.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Li Yunshan, alone, picked up his hunting rifle and walked towards the spot where the tiger had just been standing.

"Hey, third brother..."

Li Yunshan glanced at the yellow sheep in the snow, then at Li Yunshan who had already walked past. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and followed.

"Brother, don't worry, the tiger's already gone far away. What are you afraid of? Besides, tigers are fast, but can they outrun bullets fired from our guns?"

Li Yunshan walked forward with his gun in hand, observing the surroundings as he spoke casually to Li Yunshi.

"What you say makes sense, but I'm afraid the tiger might use some kind of feint to cover its tracks while secretly advancing. Tigers are actually quite clever."

Li Yunshi was still somewhat worried, but he didn't stop.

Soon, they trudged through the ankle-deep snow to the spot where the tiger had appeared.

However, when they arrived at the place where the tiger had just appeared, both Li Yunshan and Li Yunshi were somewhat surprised.

Because, right there on the snow where the tiger had just appeared, there were tiny drops of blood.

There wasn't even a single prey killed by the tiger nearby.

So, this bloodstain is from a tiger?

So they followed the tiger's footprints and looked all the way, and they actually found that the bloodstains on the ground came from the tiger's footprints.

Along the way, they found no trace of a tiger dragging its prey.

So, the tiger was injured and bled a lot.

Otherwise, the tiger only appeared in front of them for a short while before turning around and leaving.

Perhaps the tiger also knew that it was no match for the two brothers.

Thinking of this, Li Yunshan looked at Li Yunshi: "Brother, how about we pull off a heist?"

Damn, this tiger is injured! As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot. Other hunters may have hunted for half their lives and never encountered an injured tiger, but now they have. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

If we miss this opportunity, we probably won't have another chance like this to hunt tigers in our lifetime.

Li Yunshan didn't want to miss it. If Li Yunshi wasn't willing to go, then he would have to go by himself.

Although he was holding a hunting rifle with a range of only about sixty meters, Li Yunshan was not afraid at all when facing a wounded and weakened tiger that had lost too much blood.

"This...go."

After hesitating for a moment, Li Yunshi nodded firmly.

Because at that moment, he also knew that the tiger was an injured tiger.

Looking at the endless trail of blood, one can only wonder how much blood this beast had shed along the way.

Perhaps that tiger is already at its last gasp.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Although there are certain risks, as Lao San Li Yunshan said, a gun is fast from seven steps away and accurate and fast within seven steps.

Moreover, each of the brothers possessed a double-barreled shotgun, capable of firing four bullets in a single volley. Even if the tiger resorted to some trickery, as long as they were careful, the tiger wouldn't be able to withstand a single volley from them.

"Then let's be careful later and not get too separated."

Li Yunshan gave instructions.

He has the ability to detect thermal imaging, so even if a tiger hides, he can sense any heat source within a radius of more than 100 meters.

As long as his elder brother Li Yunshi stays within his vicinity, he can ensure Li Yunshi's safety.

"Don't worry, I've been hunting for so many years, I have more experience than you, I know what I'm doing. You just need to be careful."

Li Yunshi smiled and said.

After saying that, the two of them stepped through the ankle-deep snow and followed the tiger's footprints and the trail of blood.

As for that gazelle... if we can kill the tiger, we don't need the gazelle.

After all, how much can a gazelle sell for?

Li Yunshan and Li Yunshi knew how much a tiger could sell for.

Therefore, they can distinguish between what is important and what is not.

"call……"

In the mountains and forests, the north wind howled, and the wind stung my face like a knife.

Li Yunshan and Li Yunshi, guns in hand, followed the tiger's tracks in the ankle-deep snow.

They didn't know how long they had walked, but they followed the tiger and came to a valley.

The valley is high and steep on both sides, and the space in the middle is narrow, only a few dozen meters wide.

Because of the freezing weather, even the trees in the valley were bare and exposed.

Once a tiger comes here, its conspicuous stripes make it easy to spot; it has no way to hide.

The tiger's footprints and scattered bloodstains disappeared into the valley.

Li Yunshi has been hunting for many years and recognizes this mountain valley: "This valley is called 'One Line Sky.' It is said that it used to be a place where bandits set up camp. We used to pass through here often when we went hunting. The further you go into this One Line Sky, the narrower the space becomes. The only way out is the one we came in through. That tiger was quite stupid, running into such a dead end."

However, despite saying that, Li Yunshi remained highly vigilant, cautiously observing his surroundings, while the muzzle of his gun moved in sync with his eyes.

Li Yunshan was also very vigilant, keeping the thermal imaging capability constantly activated.

Under his thermal imaging scan, he found no trace of the tiger nearby; the tiger must have gone to the deepest part of the narrow passage.

"Brother, that tiger isn't around here anymore; it must have gone further in."

Li Yunshan reminded Li Yunshi.

As he spoke, he walked deeper into the narrow passage.

They cautiously walked several hundred meters further in, and when they reached the deepest part of the narrow passage, they found the tiger lying weakly on the ground, its tongue lolling out as it licked its wounds.

However, upon seeing that two humans had actually chased after it, the tiger's eyes instantly flashed with golden light, and its entire large cat face transformed into a terrifying appearance. It opened its blood-red maw and unleashed a chilling tiger roar at Li Yunshan and Li Yunshi.

Immediately afterwards, the tiger leaped up and pounced on Li Yunshan and Li Yunshi.

As the tiger pounced, Li Yunshi was startled; he could even feel a stench wafting towards him.

"Big brother, fire!"

At this moment, Li Yunshan's gun was already aimed at the tiger that was pouncing on them.

With a flick of Li Yunshan's finger, he pulled the trigger, and with a "bang," the bullet shot towards the tiger like a thunderbolt.

Immediately afterwards, another gunshot rang out, and almost without any pause, Li Yunshan fired a second shot.

After firing two shots, Li Yunshan's eyes remained fixed on the tiger. His hand, which had been about to pull the trigger, reached for his waist, pulled out two shotgun shells, and without looking at the gun, loaded them into the barrel using only his skilled touch, then switched on the safety.

At that moment, Li Yunshi's hunting rifle rang out, and he fired two shots before reloading.

However, unlike Li Yunshan who loaded bullets without looking at the gun, Li Yunshi looked at the gun twice while loading bullets.

At this moment, Li Yunshan had already fired all the bullets from the second reload.

"roar……"

With a deafening roar filled with resentment, the tiger finally collapsed to the ground after uttering its last cry.

At this moment, the tiger was only about twenty meters away from Li Yunshan and Li Yunshi.

Seeing the tiger lying on the ground, Li Yunshan and Li Yunshi breathed a sigh of relief, but then cautiously loaded two bullets into the barrel of their hunting rifles. They then took their rifles and retreated about twenty meters, standing there quietly for more than ten minutes. Only after confirming that the tiger was dead did they walk over to the tiger, whose eyes were lifeless and which remained open in death.
