Reborn in the 80s, starting with hunting in the mountains

Chapter 20 Roe Deer
"Boss, where are those squirrels that fell from the tree just now?" Zhuzi asked curiously.

He just knocked the squirrels out of the tree, and then the squirrels seemed to disappear.

At this moment, Shura burped.

Ji Yi pointed at Shura and Dahuang: "It's in the dog's belly."

Pillar
No problem.

Shura and Dahuang grinned, as if they were laughing innocently.

"Boss, let's go look for squirrels again and dig out a few more squirrel holes. These few kilograms are not enough to make me laugh." Zhuzi said to Ji Yi.

"This is a rare thing. Not every squirrel hole will have so many nuts. Besides, we are here to hunt. Do you understand hunting? If you want to catch an extra pheasant, what kind of nuts do you want to eat? Take it. Money to buy it is no faster than digging out a squirrel hole." Lin Yi couldn't laugh or cry.

But I don’t blame Zhu Zhu, the nuts are really fragrant.

At the supply and marketing cooperative, a pound of nuts costs [-] cents, and tickets are also required.

After hearing Ji Yi's words, Zhuzi quickly reacted.

Yes, they are here to hunt, but don't put the cart before the horse.

Although there are many squirrels, not every squirrel has such a large inventory. Moreover, nuts are only part of the food that squirrels eat, and there are also some grass seeds and wild fruits that humans cannot eat.

The two took a short rest and then continued searching in the forest.

"Boss, look quickly, is there a stupid roe deer there?" Zhuzi saw something strange in the grass not far away.

Then from behind the grass, a head popped out.

A pair of clear and ignorant eyes met Lin Yi's eyes.

"It is indeed a silly roe deer." Lin Yi smiled when he saw the figure behind the grass.

The stick beats the roe deer and the gourd scoops out the fish, and the pheasant flies into the rice pot.
Roe deer in later generations have become protected animals and cannot be hunted at will.

The common view on the Internet is that roe deer become protected animals because they are too stupid.

Now in the 80s, roe deer has not yet become a protected animal, because there are really not too many roe deer in the Northeast.

Roe deer can often be seen near the village.

Sometimes, roe deer will even go to the village to look for food.

Of course, the roe deer that enter the village are a walking delicacy.

Once discovered by the villagers, hehe, we will meet at the dinner table that night.

Lin Yi and his grandfather went hunting in the mountains and caught a lot of roe deer.

So we don't know much about its living habits.

"Boss, is this roe deer really as stupid as the villagers say?" Zhu Zhu asked curiously.

When it comes to roe deer, there are not too many stories about it in the Northeast.

For example, a roe deer will not run away when it encounters a hunter. You can kill the roe deer with a stick.

When a roe deer encounters danger, he buries his head in the snow and lies to himself.

Zhuzi does not have as much hunting experience as Lin Yi, and his knowledge of roe deer is limited.

Ji Yi coughed: "Let me clarify, this is not a rumor, it is true."

He had encountered this before when he and his grandfather were chasing roe deer.

Once, it was clear that the roe deer had already escaped (cervids run very fast, and people cannot catch up with them).

But unexpectedly, grandpa didn't panic at all, but took Ji Yi back to the place where the roe deer was found.

Then the moment to witness the miracle came. About an hour later, the roe deer came back!
Hey. Ji Lin Yi was shocked at that time.

This is called waiting for the rabbit, no, waiting for the roe deer!
Later, grandpa explained it to him, and he understood.Although this is a very stupid behavior in the eyes of humans, it is not in the eyes of roe deer.

This is because of the living habits of roe deer.

It’s freezing cold in the Northeast in winter.

The mountain forests are basically covered with snow. In this case, it is very difficult for the roe deer to find food and rest.

So the roe deer used its hooves to clear an empty space in the snow-covered forest, so that the dead grass and small shrub branches under the snow could become its food.

The area where the roe deer cleans up is not covered with snow, making it easier for it to lie down and rest.

This method is very physically demanding for the roe deer.

Just like a human house, it means a lot to the roe deer. It will not give up easily unless it is a last resort.

Especially in winter when the weather is freezing and food is scarce.

Therefore, when encountering danger, the roe deer runs away immediately, but after a while, it will return to the same place after it feels that the danger is gone.

"I understand, this roe deer is really stupid and naive." Zhu Zhu suddenly realized.

I didn't expect you to be such a stupid roe deer.

"Shura, Dahuang, go and block the roe deer's escape route. Zhuzi, let's get closer. Don't let this roe deer run away." Lin Yi felt happy when he saw this silly roe deer.

This year we have meat for the winter.

This roe deer meat is very delicious.

The scientific name of the roe deer is the Oriental roe deer, commonly known as the Siberian roe deer. It is an animal in the genus Roe deer of the family Cervidae.

The average length of an adult roe deer is 1.2 meters, the average height is 1.5 meters, and the average weight is about 25 kilograms.

"Zhuzi, I just watched you shoot arrows and found that your posture is not very standard. You go first this time and I will help you correct it." Ji Yi said to Zhuzi.

"Boss, this is not good. If you let the roe deer run away, it will be a big loss and you will get hot. You can teach me how to practice when I get back." Zhu Zhu shook his head quickly.

How could he be allowed to practice archery during this tense moment of hunting?

"Did I say what I just said in vain? This stupid roe deer is a good target for you to practice archery. It can't run away, and even if it runs away, it will turn back. You went home to practice for ten days, and it didn't even come close to practicing in the real world. This atmosphere The feeling is different." Ji Yi smiled at Zhu Zhu and said.

He used to go hunting in the mountains with his grandfather, and his grandfather also let him practice archery in actual combat.

That's why Ji Yi's archery skills have improved rapidly.

After listening to Ji Yi's words, Zhuzi nodded gratefully: "Okay, boss, my archery skills are indeed terrible. I should practice more."

"It's okay, no one's archery skills are born good, they are all acquired through practice." Ji Zhu asked Zhuzi to raise the compound bow in his hand.

The pillar bent its bow and nocked an arrow, aiming at the roe deer dozens of meters away.

"Boss" Zhu Zhu was a little unsure. He looked at Ji Yi and his hands were shaking a little.

Lin Yi patted Zhu Zhu's shoulder: "Take a deep breath, hold the bow in a standard posture, don't shake, look straight ahead, don't look at the arrow in your hand, look at the prey, make sure the prey, arrow, and eyes are three points and one line."

Lin Yi helped Zhu Zhu adjust his posture and taught him some archery skills.

After listening to Ji Yi's words, Zhu Zhu felt a sense of confidence welling up in his heart.

At this moment, Zhuzi could only see the roe deer in the distance, the wind and snow, and the forest, all of which seemed to have disappeared.

The next second, the arrow in his hand flew out from the string.

Swish.
A few dozen meters away, the roe deer fell to the ground with an arrow in its abdomen.

The pillar jumped up excitedly and he shot.

The arrow was not fatal. The roe deer quickly got up again, panicked and fled away.
