This hunting team, with a clear distinction between the rich and the poor, continued to venture deeper into the mountains. Along the way, they did encounter a few wild chickens that had flown right into their gun sights. Chen Ergou couldnt help but feel disdain for the archery skills of these young masters. Upon seeing prey the size of sesame seeds or green beans, they would become excited as if they had seen an arch-nemesis, making Chen Ergou laugh and cry at the same time with their exaggerated reactions and ear-piercing shouts. With this level of skill, did they really dare to come hunting for 600-pound wild boars? To be honest, even though Chen Ergou had been roaming these mountains for over a decade, he had only ever seen one 500-pound wild boar. The concept of a 500-pound wild boar was unfathomable to city dwellers who had never seen pigs run. Such a wild boar would be like a small bulldozer, charging straight at you and capable of knocking down not just one person, but a whole group of people. And what about a 600-pound wild boar king? Chen Ergou sneered, thinking that those modern, precision bows and arrows might reach their limits and possibly not even be able to kill the beast instantly, assuming they could hit its weak points. Moreover, Chen Ergou was also doubtful of these young masters arm strength.
Although the shooting technique was not impressive, they had an advantage in numbers and managed to capture a few spoils of war, including two wild chickens that were riddled with holes, a rabbit with a pierced skull, and a squirrel that was out foraging but unfortunately got hit by an arrow. The squirrel ran around in the branches for a long time, barely surviving the hail of arrows, before being accidentally hit by a stray arrow. When Chen Er Dog found out that each arrow cost tens of dollars, he couldnt help but feel sorry for them.
Along the way, Chen Ergou also roughly understood the composition of this team. The tall and handsome young man leading the group was a native of Heilongjiang Province named Yang Kaize. His girlfriend was called Weiwei. Two people from Shanghai were named Zhou Lingfeng and Sun Guidang, one fat and one thin, forming a visually appealing combination. There was also someone from Hangzhou, slender and refined, with a somewhat bookish air, seemingly a top student at Zhejiang University, which made Chen Ergou admire him greatly.
The woman who liked taking pictures was always on the periphery of this circle, with very few words, and Chen Ergou couldnt figure out her temperament. The wooden man behind her was even more silent all the way. As for hunting, Chen Ergou was considered a half-expert, and he could tell that the bronze-skinned muscular man was not unfamiliar with the forest.
The silly big guy didnt move that astonishingly powerful giant bow, which also spared those young masters from embarrassment. Chen Ergou knew that the rich and noble had to take action, and the rest of them didnt have the face to continue playing. This wasnt him deliberately taking care of the rich and noble, they werent fools to begin with, and this small matter didnt need his reminder.
"Chi Bing, have you ever seen a wild boar weighing over 600 catties?" The woman had obviously never tried hunting in the wilderness before. Although she wasnt as whiny and complaining as the pretty girl earlier, she was still walking with difficulty. However, this only applied to her footsteps, as her expression remained as calm as a cup of plain water. Now, she didnt even have the leisure to take pictures, and it was already hard for her to keep up with everyones pace. She threw a question at "Wooden Head", who had been following closely by her side.
"Ive seen it. Its about 613 pounds, and one person cant lift it at all."
"But that was eight or nine years ago, in Shennongjia, Hubei."
Its better not to say anything at all; once you start talking, it has to be something that will astound people or kill them with boredom.
Chen Ergou was shocked, such a big-headed wild boar king, four or five ordinary hunting dogs rushed up and were not enough for it to chew, the head dog rushed up and was likely to be killed instantly by its tusks. Chen Ergou had seen such scenes before. The woman exclaimed in surprise, "Theres a saying that goes like this: one pig, two bears, three tigers, the most ferocious is the wild boar, followed by the black bear, and finally the tiger. I remember my grandfather saying that the wild boars in the pine forest are the most terrifying because they often rub against the pine trees that secrete a thick pine oil, and after rolling on the ground and getting muddy, its like wearing armor, even guns cant penetrate it. Am I right, Chi Lie?"
The wooden stick nodded and said, "No."
Chen Ergou rubbed his chin and began to be really curious about this clever womans background.
She fell silent for a moment before suddenly asking: "How did you kill this wild boar king?"
The man with a wooden expression in Chen Ergous eyes calmly spat out two words, "Hand chop."
She continued to remain silent, with a composure beyond Chen Ergous imagination.
Chen Ergou couldnt help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, stretched his neck to look at the rich and powerful leading the way in front, thinking about when that silly big guy would also have such great abilities. Who wouldnt want to be like this, where one person achieves success and everyone around them rises with them? Chen Ergou thought that maybe others werent wrong when they said that Rich was foolish, sometimes he felt that way too.
Suddenly, a series of loud barks from black dogs came from afar, thick and heavy, full of momentum.
Big game!
Chen Ergou and Dabai almost simultaneously changed their facial expressions, with a mix of excitement and worry. Without these rich troublemakers, he would definitely seize this opportunity to make a fortune, but with these guys around, if something went wrong and someone got hurt, Chen Ergou wouldnt be able to afford the consequences even if he spent all his wealth. Wild boars didnt care if you were the son of a wealthy family or an official, theyd just gore you to death. Thinking this way, Chen Ergou charged forward with swift steps, agilely darting through the underbrush, making that woman take another look at him.
Almost two meters tall, with a sturdy and robust physique, its hard to avoid giving people a clumsy and heavy feeling, but the foolish big rich and noble, even holding a giant bow, seemed like an agile leopard, and immediately ran out in the first time, coincidentally still silent as a ghost, just like a wild cat walking in the dark night, he and Chen Er Gou rushed to the place where Hei Gou made a sound, one after another.
In the dense forest, a pig and a dog glared at each other, the black dogs body slightly arched, its eyes like those of a wolf.
This is a gigantic wild boar, with two huge tusks that are sharp and menacing. It lets out a low growl, and although one dog may not be enough to pose a threat to its life, it will not ignore the provocation. The big silly cat is hiding behind a pine tree, which happens to be downwind, and already has an arrow at the ready in his hand. The light filtering through the pine forest is dim, but the dark yellow ancient cow-horn bow stands out particularly well, and one can imagine how rare the pair of cow horns must have been to make such a massive bow.
Chen Ergou came up behind him, squatted down and exclaimed: "Good fellow, it should be around 450 catties. I dont know if its bad luck or good fortune that we ran into it today. Fugui, are you confident? There is still a group of embroidered pillows in the back. If youre not confident, Ill let Hei Chou lead this beast away. Its not worth taking a big risk for five or six hundred dollars."
The silly big fellow smiled and stretched out three fingers.
Chen Er Gou furrowed his brow and said: "Are you sure three arrows will be enough?"
The silly big guy nodded, a smiling face was particularly honest, but his eyes had a kind of wildness that ordinary people couldnt understand. If the woman who was good at capturing details saw it, she would definitely say that this was not an eye expression that a fool could have.
Chen Ergou gritted his teeth and said, "Then Ill be the bait with Hei Chou, you look for an opportunity."
The silly big fellow shook his head, turned around and glanced at the rear, which was the direction of those young masters and ladies. Chen Er Gou understood what he meant, that they were going to use those people as bait. He sighed and said: "Fu Gui, other peoples lives are more valuable than ours. Since youre confident, let me do it. Besides, if something goes wrong, I wont die without a chance, with Black Panther by my side."
The silly big smile still exists, and he still shakes his head stubbornly.
Seeing that the young dandy who seemed to be seeing a wild boar for the first time was almost there, Chen Ergou didnt even think about persuading the stubborn cow. He rushed out directly, put his middle finger on his mouth and blew a sharp whistle. The black dog that was entangled with the big wild boar immediately retreated and ran towards Chen Ergou. One man and one dog started sprinting wildly, incredibly in sync.
Almost at the same time, Dàigè also sprang into action, bending his arm, drawing his bow, and taking aim. The series of movements was incredibly smooth, as if he had anticipated Chen Ergous actions all along.
At this moment, everyone except the two brothers could just see the back of the big fool, only to see a sturdy figure, thick arms pulling open a giant crossbow, like a full moon, unrestrainedly displaying a kind of wild aura that may be called innate, in the dim light, majestic as a war god.
Flabbergasted.
How much terrifying arm strength is needed to pull this gigantic cow horn bow to such a terrifying extent? The young masters who have been tempered in the archery club for a period of time extremely admire those legendary strongmen who can open 80 or 90 pounds of compound bows. As for opening over 100 pounds, its basically a mythical figure for these amateur players. At this level and realm, you can go solo against polar bears or North American brown bears. Seeing this scene, not to mention them, even the silent man who has seen over 600 pounds of wild boar had his pupils shrink in an instant.
Wow!
The first arrow burst out of the air, its sharp piercing force causing several small objects that had been randomly shot to infinitely expand, and the young people who were still in a state of chaos didnt even have time to feel jealous or ashamed, only feeling a kind of pure suffocation. They found it hard to imagine what would happen to the prey that was hit by this arrow.
A shrill and mournful cry immediately followed.
The second arrow, abnormally thick and long, was already clamped between two fingers. The giant bow was instantly pulled out to an arc degree that still stunned peoples hearts for the second time. The bow and the person moved in parallel with the preys galloping, and within less than two seconds, it burst out immediately. This time, the preys wail became even more mournful, as if it could echo through the entire forest, causing birds to fly away in droves, making ones hair stand on end.
Before the last echo of its howl had faded away, a third long arrow shot out like lightning, and this time people could even hear the sound of the arrow piercing through the body of the beast. Its second howl also carried a hint of despair. Putting down the cowhorn bow that was considered the pinnacle of traditional Chinese archery, Dàigè turned around with a bright smile, looking silly and naive, without any pretence or cunning.
A group of people rushed to the scene in stunned silence, a stout wild boar lay on its side, three long arrows inserted into its body without exception, one in the leg, the second in the neck, and the third directly pierced through its entire head from the ear, this arrow was undoubtedly the real fatal wound.
Yang Kaize, a high-ranking officials son born and raised in Heilongjiang, took a frightened glance at the big guy and muttered: "Giant ape?"
A young master from a wealthy family in Hangzhou, who was studying at Zhejiang University, squatted down to observe the spoils of war and pulled out two arrows easily, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldnt pull out the third one. He was filled with emotion and exclaimed: "What a freak!"
The beautiful girl with a faded complexion hid behind the crowd, sneaked a glance at the giant wild boar that was still twitching in the blood pool, and finally trembled and said: "Pervert!"
