Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 119 Nine dogs make one mastiff (Part [-])
From the footprints left by these roe deer on the meadow, Lu Lu could tell that there were six roe deer who had fled in shock, and three of them were young at most one or two months old.

Looking at the small hoof prints, Lu Lu thought of something very interesting.

He took a knife, peeled off a small piece of bark from a birch tree not far away, trimmed it into a thin bark, folded and twisted it, and cut it into a piece below the upper arc.

The thing is very small, only the size of a thumbnail, and it can be made easily.

Don't underestimate this thing. It is a common hunting method used by the Ewenki and Oroqen people who claim to live in the mountains. It is called the roe whistle. It is an onomatopoeic hunting tool. Birch bark whistle.

Putting the roe deer whistle in your mouth can simulate the squeaking sound of a roe deer cub.

Every March to June is the season for roe deer to give birth.

Hearing this sound, the female roe deer will mistakenly think that the cub is calling for milk, and will rush to come.

Sometimes the screams of roe deer cubs come out, and the female roe deer thinks that other wild animals are hurting the cubs, so she rushes to make a rescue.

When other wild animals hear the roe deer whistle, they will also follow the sound to hunt.

Therefore, these Oroqen or Ewenki hunters who live in the mountains, even if they have changed to Type [-] or Type [-] semi-automatic rifles, often hold one in their mouths when hunting, blowing while walking.

No matter what wild animal is drawn, it is the target.

This is not a secret hunting method. In fact, for the Oroqen or Ewenki people, the roe whistle is not only a small hunting tool, but also a musical instrument for gatherings.

In terms of use, it does not require too much practice and control like the pheasant flute made of apricot pits that Lu Lu used to have his feet pierced by nails. This birch bark whistle can be blown in the mouth.

Roe deer are not stupid. The reason why they keep returning to the same area after being frightened is not so-called curiosity, but because this place is their habitat, with their favorite food, water source and familiar environment .

However, two young roe deer were hunted and killed by lynx one after another. Affected by this shock and the bloody smell of the same family, they would choose to stay away from this dangerous place.

Therefore, it is impossible to be sure whether this group of roe deer will come back.

Lu Lu chose to pinch and follow. Along the way, he blew a birch bark whistle once or twice to lure him.

Unexpectedly, following all the way, the roe deer hadn't been drawn out, but someone came first.

Yuan Bao suddenly barked towards the forest in front of the left, Lu Lu immediately stopped and looked towards the front left where Yuan Bao was barking.

After a while, a person in the woods leaned over and approached him cautiously. Lu Lv took a closer look and said, "It's Brother Liang!"

It was Liang Kangbo from Huilongtun who came.

"Oh, brother, why is it you!" Liang Kangbo was taken aback when he heard the voice, and after seeing clearly that it was Lu Lu through the forest, he hurried over to meet him: "I'm on the opposite hillside, and I vaguely heard the sound coming from here. If there is a cry from the little robe, I will come here to have a look, thinking about hunting a roe deer to satisfy my hunger...Could it be that you are also here to hunt a roe deer?"

"Brother is really right, he is pinching the trail. I have been following this for more than half an hour, and there is still no sign of it." Lu Lu sighed: "Brother, have you finished planting the land?"

"The planting is over, and the whole family has been quite tired these days. I finally got some free time today. I was thinking about going for a walk on the mountain, and getting a roe deer or something to cook meat for the family."

Liang Kangbo said, his eyes fell on Lu Lu's side, and he looked at the four Yuan Baoniang who were whining fiercely at him, and said in surprise: "They are all good dogs. These three puppies have been raised. Already!"

Lu Lu smiled: "Brother's dogs are not bad!"

To be called a gunner, Liang Kangbo's level in selecting and dragging dogs is naturally not bad.

"Compared to your dogs, it's still a lot worse. Good dogs are rare!" Liang Kangbo shook his head and sighed.

Lu Lu nodded. He knew very well that he was lucky to meet Yuan Bao. If it was normal, he would go everywhere to choose a dog, and he would not necessarily be able to find a good one.

"I have a dog that is getting old. I was thinking about it recently. I couldn't find a suitable one. So I went to the surrounding villages to find a dozen puppies and locked them up together to see if I could choose a good one. The dog is here." Liang Kangbo asked: "Brother, have you heard of a bitch in Xiushantun giving birth to puppies recently?"

Lu Lu shook his head: "Recently, my cellar has been doing a lot of miscellaneous things, and I haven't been around Xiushantun much. I really don't know about it. You know where I live, and it's far away from the village. I'm afraid You’ll only know if you go around the village and ask around...Brother, from what you said just now, you’re trying to choose a dog by using the method of nine dogs to produce one mastiff?”

The so-called nine dogs out of one mastiff is a method of training fierce dogs. There are many theories, some of which are to find a few or a dozen puppies, lock them together, and only give one piece of food.

In order to compete for food, these pups will attack and bite each other when they are hungry, and then they will be eliminated one by one until the last one left will be the strongest among these pups.

This is a cruel method similar to raising Gu in the southwest.

These days, not everyone can afford a dog. Don’t look at just feeding some cornmeal, boiled potatoes or leftovers on weekdays. It sounds simple, but in fact, who has a lot of surplus food?

Most people are still thinking about the years when they have enough food and clothing.

Therefore, when raising a dog, at most it is to raise a housekeeper to guard the home. Some people want to give away the extra puppies, but no one wants to send them directly to the mountains and let them fend for themselves. More dogs Cubs became snacks for wild animals.

Therefore, if you want to get puppies, even if you don't spend money, it's easy.

However, the dogs selected by this method are likely to be disabled, so it is not advisable.

Liang Kangbo nodded: "That's the idea, I just want a help dog, as long as it is fierce enough, there is no good way."

This was Liang Kangbo's idea, and Lu Lu didn't want to say anything more.

Liang Kangbo looked at the marks left by the underground roe deer, and quickly identified six of them, but Lu Lv had already pinched them down, so he didn't want to get involved: "Brother, take your time to find them, I'll go to another place Let's see!"

"Row!"

They hunted separately, and they didn't go too deep into the mountains, so there was no need to partner up. When they really got something, it wasn't easy to divide it. It was just a roe deer.

After Liang Kangbo finished speaking, he left, and Lu Lu continued to pinch him, and once again took out the birch whistle in his mouth and blew it.

Liang Kangbo, who had just walked two steps, was stunned for a moment, turned around and smiled at Lu Lu: "So you made the voice of the little roe deer, it really looks like it!"

Of course Liang Kangbo also knew about this method, but, in his opinion, it was a side issue, and he didn't think much of it.

But today, he suddenly realized that this method is not easy.

After all, even he himself was attracted by this voice.

Lu Lu also laughed: "Just try it casually, I've been looking for it for a while, and it doesn't seem to be anything..."

Before he could say the word "function", Yuan Bao suddenly let out a fierce sound.

Lu Lu hurriedly looked in the direction, which was the direction where the roe deer left.

Judging from the sound made by Yuan Bao, it is very likely that those roe deer who left have turned back.

Therefore, Lu Lu smiled at Liang Kangbo: "Brother, I will take a step first."

After speaking, he led Yuanbao and walked quickly along the footprints.
