Returning to 83 Mountain Hunting

Chapter 27 The Slingshot's Good Start
Carrying two ground cages, Ji Chang went to the river to lower the ground cage first.

In the dark night, there are only the chirping of various insects and frogs.

It's only early May, and it's still cold after nightfall.

However, it has no effect on Ji Chang. After his rebirth, his body has become much stronger, and he has a feeling of being invulnerable to cold and heat.

After entering the forest, Ji Chang took out his slingshot.

Tonight is a good time to test the slingshot.

Ji Chang picked up a lot of stone seeds, estimated to be thirty or forty.

He knew that these small stones were not ideal projectiles because they were irregular and would cause the flight path to be deflected from the intended target by various wind resistances.

The ideal projectile is a steel ball with a diameter between 0.9 and 1.2.

Such steel balls are relatively rare and difficult to obtain.

Another type of projectile that is ideal for sheep is pottery pills. This kind of projectile is a mud ball made of clay. After drying in the shade, it is fired at high temperature to become pottery pills. The hardness is even stronger than ordinary stone seeds.

So Ji Chang plans to take his old classmates to the muddy ground of the production team's bowl factory tomorrow to dig some clay and then make pottery balls by himself.

They probably haven't played in the dirt for a long time, and they will probably be very happy after rubbing the mud.

What fun things can there be in the countryside? It's not just fishing in the river and picking up snails, or going up the mountains to find game.

So that’s all the arrangements for tomorrow.

Just as he was thinking, Ji Chang heard a cry, the cry of a pheasant.

Following the sound, Ji Chang quickly discovered two similar health bars.

Without saying a word, Ji Chang opened the slingshot and locked one of the health bars.

Whether it will succeed depends not only on the accuracy of the head, but also on luck.

"Snapped!"

This is the sound made by the rubber tube and the ammunition bag, not the pellet hitting the target.

But in the distance, there was a sudden "ke" sound.

At the same time, Ji Chang saw that one of the health bars was mostly empty.

"It actually hit?"

Ji Chang exclaimed as he rushed towards the target.

"Oh!"

Another pheasant rose into the air and quickly disappeared from Ji Chang's sight.

But he didn't care, after all, he had already gained something.

After getting closer, a pheasant had fallen to the ground and kicked its legs randomly.

Grab it directly and weigh it.

"It's not bad, it should weigh three pounds. It's not easy for wild ones to be so big."

On the top of its head, there are three words [curable].

Additionally, the number of hunting spaces has been changed from 3 to 4.
Now, he was basically sure that if he hunted an animal, the number would increase accordingly.

Ji Chang didn't choose to heal. If you take this back, you can add another meal tomorrow. Why waste a chance to heal?
Pheasant, with tender and delicious meat, strong game flavor and high protein content, is a must-have delicacy on the table.In later generations, many people made a fortune by breeding this.

Slingshot got off to a good start, giving Ji Chang some confidence.

He continued to look for prey with a comparable health bar, while also paying attention to various cries, trying to find suitable prey from the cries.

Ten minutes later, Ji Chang saw considerable blood bars again.

The distance of this blood bar can be upgraded. After the prey accumulates a certain amount, it can be automatically upgraded to expand the range.

The current distance is 30 meters, which is already very powerful for Ji Chang.

The effective shooting range of the slingshot is only about 30 meters. Beyond this distance, the power will be weakened.

After locking the blood bar, Ji Chang approached slowly.

When it was more than ten meters away, Ji Chang could clearly see that it was an earth-yellow hare, which almost blended in with the environment.

If it wasn't for Ji Chang who could see the blood bar, he would really be confused by its disguise.

Without saying a word, he opened his slingshot and aimed at the hare that was still eating young grass.

From time to time it would stand up and look around, appearing very cautious.

"Snapped"

When the sling shot clicked, the projectile went straight to the rabbit.

Ji Chang saw the health bar jump and then move quickly, and knew that he had missed the shot.

"Unfortunately, I missed."

However, the hare didn't flee very far, and the movement of a stone seed didn't make it run wildly.

Approaching again, Ji Chang continued to look for opportunities.

A few minutes later, Ji Chang pulled out the slingshot again and locked the hare.

A few seconds later, a smile appeared on Ji Chang's face.

Because he saw that most of the health bar was cleared, which meant that the rabbit was hit by him.

After running over quickly, the rabbit still tried to escape.

He directly lifted it up, and the stone seeds had penetrated its skin and got directly stuck in its flesh, causing fatal damage to it.

Seeing the number of the hunting space jump from 4 to 5, Ji Chang happily put the rabbit in his back basket.

Today's slingshot gave him quite a surprise.

A distance of more than ten meters can actually seriously injure a hare.

In the future, when you can hunt these small game stably, you won’t need to deliberately acquire a crossbow.

However, you can get a pistol to guard against sudden wild beasts.

There are not too many guns, you can do as much as you can.

As a son and daughter of China, it is reasonable to have a phobia of insufficient firepower, right?

With these two gains, Ji Chang became more motivated.

These prey do not have to be taken out immediately, after all, the hunting space has the function of pausing time.

What kind of prey is put in, what is taken out.

Therefore, as long as they are completely dead, Ji Chang will receive them into his hunting space.

He doesn't need to make contact. He can place prey within one meter of the surrounding area into the hunting space with his thoughts, which is very convenient.

Silently walking through the woods, relying on its own sense of hearing to find prey.

If there is a hound with a keen sense of smell, Ji Chang can harvest all the way under its leadership.

Unfortunately, there are no such hounds around here, nor are there any powerful hounds.

They were in the south, where hunters were rare and there were even fewer people training hounds.

After all, it is not like the Northeast, which has a hunting holy land like the vast Daxingan Mountains.

Before he knew it, Ji Chang found himself at the place where he hunted wild boars in the morning.

Now that he has arrived at this place, Ji Chang is naturally unwilling to let it go.

There is a water source in that small mountain col, which will indeed attract wild animals to drink water there.

With any luck...

"Fuck, so many?"

When Ji Chang saw a herd of wild boars in the mountain depression, he couldn't help screaming in his heart.

After a quick count, there were 23 wild boars of all sizes.

This is a large herd, or it's mating season, when several wild boar families come together to exchange genes.

These wild boars weigh four to five hundred catties, and even Gai Jichang's legs are a little weak when he is carrying a three-eight-year-old pig.

There are so many, you really need to bring a cannon over to dare to do it.

Otherwise, if one of them bumps into or chases Ji Chang, he will be sent away on the spot.

Therefore, he did not dare to provoke these wild boars.

Even at this distance, he could hit one with his [-]-meter range, but as long as a wild boar was coming toward him, it would be difficult for him to escape.

In the mountains, don't expect a two-legged one to outrun a four-legged one.

　Come on, Xiaohuo has already knelt down to beg for votes. Why don’t you guys take some?
