Survival male god

Chapter 327 Dog Valley
When Chen Jing restarted the live broadcast, the audience was already in an uproar.

Some asked about Jordan's situation, some couldn't wait to put pressure on him, and some thought after the fact that he had failed to fulfill his duty of admonishment.

Chen Jing knew that he had done the right thing. He had indeed persuaded him. He also felt that it would be very difficult for Jordan to climb Remington Cliff.

But in the final analysis, the two of them had known each other for less than a day, so they could barely be called friends who met by chance but met each other late.

But just for this, he was unable and unqualified to interfere in any decisions of others.

There are many people in the live broadcast room, and they are very unreasonable.

He chose to put the fault on his head, but Chen Jing didn't want to respond at all.

This is a very meaningless thing. Instead of wasting energy on confronting these people, it is better to think about it carefully.

What should I do next to make myself feel better and at the same time try my best to complete Jordan's unfinished plans.

However, he still explained Jordan's situation to everyone.

"No one thought that something like this would happen, but the world itself didn't know it earlier."

"Brother Jordan lost his footing and fell off a cliff. When I got down, he had completely lost his vital signs."

"I collected his relics."

"Including some of his documents, an old mobile phone, wallet and half a box of cigarettes. The shotgun was broken and could no longer be used. The remaining bullets were also damp, and I buried them all in a temporary pit. , This mountain is very cold, and the body will not rot. After I come down from the mountain, I will go to the small town of Aosta to find his family and help him take care of his funeral, but now..."

"I have to continue to do what we haven't finished. I want to take him into the real Aosta Valley to find the legendary beasts and solve the mystery of the missing goats and cows. Please believe me, I am better than any of you." More grief.”

"But death is like a light going out. It is meaningless to argue about right and wrong. Let this matter end here. I will not make any further response."

Remington Cliff is 800 meters above sea level, and heading northwest is the snow line of Mont Blanc.

In his previous life, Chen Jing remembered clearly that this mountain, located at the junction of Haute-Savoie in France and Aosta in Italy, had an altitude of [-] meters and was the highest peak in the Alps.

But in this life, Matterhorn took its place, and its height suddenly increased by nearly one-third, ranking at the top of the peaks with an altitude of more than 600 meters, leaving Mont Blanc in second place.

But now, the ancient glacier river that created the impact soil of the Aosta Valley is located in front of Chen Jing, only a few hundred meters away.

Of course, what really concerned Chen Jing was the ups and downs just now, the high and low levels of barking.

Deep in the Aosta Valley, there are dogs, and a bunch of them!

There is no doubt that there is only one breed of dog that can appear here.

That is the most famous St. Bernard dog in the Alps, also called the Alpine Mastiff.

"I wonder if everyone heard it? I think you should have heard it."

"The barking of dogs and the barking of wolves are different. Although they are both canines, the way they make sounds is very different and it is easy to distinguish them."

The sounds of ordinary domestic dogs and canids such as wild dogs, hyenas, and hyenas in nature are also very different.

Of course, no matter what it is, hearing a pack of dogs barking in such a deserted place will make people shudder.

"Imagine how you feel in a place like this, surrounded by seven or eight wolves and seven or eight dogs. It's actually almost terrifying."

"Once you become their target, it's definitely not good news."

"They will stare at you, chase you, and then wait for an opportunity to eat your flesh, drink your blood, and chew your bones."

"A properly bred St. Bernard is a rescue dog, but a wild one is not the same thing."

"But the strange thing is, isn't it said that the Saint Bernard is close to extinction in the wild?"

"I didn't expect that a group of them could be found in the Mont Blanc Valley, which is more than 2000 meters above sea level and nearly 3000 meters above sea level."

"It can be said to be very rare!"

"Just listening to the calls, I can't determine their number yet. I can only get closer and take a closer look."

An adult Saint Bernard is about ninety centimeters tall and weighs sixty to ninety kilograms.

In other words, it is entirely possible that it will grow taller than an adult, and its combat power will be extremely terrifying.

"I have come into contact with many large dog breeds, such as Tibetan mastiffs and Caucasian dogs. Such terrifying animals can make a person feel frightened just by standing there."

"To be honest, I'm quite scared, but in order to find out the truth, I have to observe first."

Chen Jing walked towards higher ground step by step.

The interior of the Aosta Valley is somewhat different from what you might imagine. It does not become narrower as you go to higher altitudes.

On the contrary, starting from Remington Cliff and entering the valley mouth, the area covered by snow and glaciers becomes more open.

After Chen Jing thought for a while, he understood the reason for the formation of this terrain. The bases of the two mountain peaks were connected, but the tops were separated in a V shape. The structure was squeezed and then broken by plate movement. When it reached the top, the distance between the flat areas was actually Being stretched.

At an altitude of 3000 meters, most of the vegetation is coniferous forest, which does not grow densely.

The ground was covered with ice and snow, and there were almost no weeds or shrubs.

"The current temperature is about three or four degrees, which is not particularly cold. At night, it may drop to below zero."

“The temperature difference between day and night in the Aosta Valley is very large, so in vineyards where mechanical planting cannot be used, people must plant manually and build scaffoldings. This will help distribute geothermal energy evenly to each grape at night. "

“The unique climate has also resulted in the extremely high-quality winemaking process here.”

At this point, Chen Jing sighed.

Jordan, he still owes him a meal of the best wine in Aosta!

It's a pity that now he can only be alone, sighing about the impermanence of the world.

Shaking the messy thoughts out of his mind, Chen Jing continued:
"It's now after two o'clock in the afternoon. According to the time here, there are still more than six hours before it gets dark. We still have plenty of time, so we don't have to rush to build a shelter."

"As for food, I still have two whole legs of deer in my backpack, enough to last me a week."

"First find the den of the Saint Bernard dog. If the wild dogs live in a fixed area for a long time, they may also have a place to live."

"The top section of the valley is more than ten kilometers long. The reason why these St. Bernard dogs have not been discovered by people, I guess, is because they are hidden too well." Chen Jing walked along the snow path on the mountain. On the ground, he saw There were lots of paw prints from St. Bernard dogs.

These claw marks are larger than the palm of my hand and are in the shape of a goosefoot with spikes. The claws are wide and thick at the back and the tips of the claws are very obvious in the front.

There was no doubt that these were canine paw prints.

Their claws cannot retract like cats, so the marks left behind are very visible.

As for feline paw prints, the paw prints look more rounded due to the claws contracting when walking.

“These are the footprints left by the same St. Bernard dog, but it is not certain whether they were left by the St. Bernard named Pope as Jordan said.

In addition to seeing footprints in the snow along the way, Chen Jing also saw a lot of feces and hair.

This is a part-colored Saint Bernard dog, available in three colors: white, black, and brown.

Most Saint Bernards are this color, and based on this we cannot determine the identity of the owner of the footprints.

"When I have free time, I will ask water friends for a picture of a St. Bernard with that hair for comparison."

It was a big guy, ninety centimeters tall at the shoulders, weighing ninety kilograms, and standing over two meters tall.

It’s hard to imagine what terrible consequences it would have if such a St. Bernard dog went crazy.

Chen Jing suddenly remembered that Jordan had said before that several sheep and a cow were suddenly lost in the plantation at the foot of the mountain.

The latter was fired by his boss for this reason.

Jordan told him at that time that the other party did not believe in the legend of the beasts in the Aosta Valley.

But it never occurred to me that the goat might have been eaten by a St. Bernard dog.

At first, Chen Jing thought what he said made sense, but now it seems that the situation has changed.

Think about it, if it's just a Saint Bernard, it's normal that it can't eat that many goats, but what if it's a group?

A group of Saint Bernard dogs can not only eat a group of sheep, but also a cow.

The key to the problem is why, for the past 200 years, there have been legends of beasts in the Aosta Valley, but no one has ever doubted it.Is it a Saint Bernard hunting the creatures in the valley?
There must be something hidden in this.

Chen Jing told the audience his guess. Most water friends thought what he said was reasonable, but there were still a few people who felt that the Saint Bernard was a loyal and lovely large pet dog.

It is unlikely that they would capture herdsmen’s goats to eat, not to mention, aren’t all wild Saint Bernard dogs already extinct?

Chen Jing shook his head and explained:

"You can't think about this kind of thing with conventional thinking. Even the reason why pet dogs are pets is just a characterization imposed on them by humans."

"Anyway, dogs are also omnivores, even carnivores. Haven't you seen the news? Some old people kept dogs at home and kept them closed until the neighbors smelled them. , notified the police to open the door, only to find that the owner’s body had been eaten up by his pet dog.”

“So, dogs are dogs, and they always need to eat. In the cold winter, or at high altitudes, animals that cannot hibernate need to eat a lot of meat and accumulate fat to maintain life activities. "

"But what is the reason why they have started to frequently hunt herdsmen's goats recently?"

"Maybe the root of the problem lies in that St. Bernard named Pope!"

"Do you still remember that Jordan once said that Pope was a very old St. Bernard dog? When he first came here more than ten years ago, Pope was picked up outside and adopted. , has been raised until now, and is estimated to be ten years old."

"Is it possible that Popper is actually a wild Alpine mastiff? When he was a child, he accidentally got separated from his parents and was picked up by the residents of the town. I think it is very possible."

"But after more than ten years of artificial breeding, Pop suddenly went crazy and ran out. There must be some reason. I was wondering if I could learn the details of Pop's escape from the town through the previous water friend?"

"By the way, I asked him to send me a picture of Pop."

"Let me see if the water friend named Makabaka is in the live broadcast room. If you hear it, can you please help me contact your friend?"

Chen Jing waited for a long time, and when he was about to take out his mobile phone to contact the other party, the fan responded in the live broadcast room.

["Yes, yes, but my friend is not in the town of Aosta right now. If he comes over, it will probably take a few hours. I will give you a reply by 8 p.m. at the latest."]

Chen Jingding nodded, with a grateful look on his face.

"Then I'll leave it to you. No matter what the final result is, when we get to the small town of Aosta, I'll treat you to wine and meat."

["Can you try the original smoked venison shank?"]

Chen Jing smiled.

"of course can!"

Next, he walked around the mountain for about two or three hours, covering several kilometers.

But their cries were never heard again?Even the footprints on the ground became fewer and fewer.

This gave him an illusion. Was the dog barking I heard before an illusion?

It was impossible. Chen Jing believed in his ears and his own judgment. There was definitely a group of wild Saint Bernard dogs in this valley.

"What exactly is going on?"

"Why did all the traces of the St. Bernard dogs suddenly disappear? It is still around 4 o'clock in the afternoon. According to the feeding habits of wild animals, they should not hibernate before dusk arrives."

"If you think carefully about the living habits of domestic dogs, do all dogs sleep during the day and then become active at night? In fact, this is their innate nature. Just like lions and leopards, these animals spend most of their time during the day. It’s just a small fight at night, but at night, they show their fangs to hunt the meat they need.”

"But there seems to be nothing but snow on this mountain. What can those St. Bernard dogs eat?"

Chen Jing was puzzled. He turned to look at the distant mountain peaks and then at the scattered plantations at the bottom of the valley.

Suddenly, a light flashed deep in his eyes, and excited voices sounded in the snow.

"I understand, I know where they went. So the answer is at the bottom of the mountain."

"Those St. Bernard dogs must have gone to catch the goats at the bottom of the mountain, but where did they come down from?"

"I have to look for it..."
