Chapter 410

~7 min read 1,355 words

About half an hour later, Wu Dong frowned and looked ahead:

"This damn ditch, why is it so long?"

Wang An also frowned and said:

"It is; where the hell is this? I didn't know there was such a long ditch in this mountain."

To tell the truth, Wang An was a bit dumbfounded about where they were now, because the three of them had never been here before whenever they entered the mountains.

After Wang An finished speaking, Wu Dong exclaimed directly:

"Damn, we wouldn't have gotten lost, would we?"

Wang An, upon hearing this, looked around and said hesitantly:

"Aiya, that's really not certain."

Wu Dong looked at Wang An's big face and asked with wide eyes in disbelief:

"You, a mountain trekker, got lost; is this embarrassing?"

Wang An didn't attach any importance to the matter of being embarrassed.

So Wang An said disdainfully:

"I tell you, Brother Wu, embarrassment is something that, as long as I don't feel embarrassed, then the one who is embarrassed is not me."

Wu Dong said thoughtfully: "Come to think of it, what you said seems to make sense."

Wang An nodded calmly: "Isn't that a must?"

Wu Dong glanced at Wang An and didn't dwell on this problem but pointed at his military boots:

"Xiao An, look at these shoes of mine, how are they?"

Wang An glanced down and said very calmly:

"Genuine military boots, what's wrong?"

Wu Dong shook his head, lifted his big foot, made the sole face up, and then said:

"No, you misunderstood; I meant look at the sole of my shoe."

Wang An glanced down again and then said very suspiciously:

"The sole of this shoe is so thick; it must be comfortable to wear."

Although it wasn't said that the thicker the sole, the more comfortable it was to wear, one had to admit that thick soles were indeed more comfortable than thin soles.

Only seeing Wu Dong point at the sole and say to Wang An:

"You say, with such thick soles, they aren't as thick as your face; how did your face grow?"

Wang An didn't react at first, but after reacting, he discovered that this kid Wu Dong was really not a thing!

Taking a big detour, after all that, he was waiting for him here!

Consequently, Wang An said with a smile: "Brother Wu, I discovered that your heart is more full of holes than a sieve."

Wu Dong said with a smile: "Then look? After staying with you for a long time, no one's heart is lacking."

Just as the two of them were talking nonsense back and forth, they finally found the end of this ditch.

Roughly calculating, the group walked along the edge of the ditch for a full hour.

However, in order to find the tiger, the group still had to go back along the other side of the ditch to find the tiger's footprints...

In other words, the group still had to spend more than an hour to get back on the right track.

This damn thing, the tiger just jumped lightly and jumped more than 20 meters.

But for these 20 meters, the group had to run without stopping for more than two hours!

Depressed? Endure it.

Suffocated? Endure it.

Uncomfortable? Still have to endure it.

Although the road there felt very long to the group.

But walking on the road back, the group felt that this road was even longer.

Fortunately, the road had an end, and the group finally arrived at the destination.

Looking at the clear tiger footprints on the snow, and then looking at the tiger footprints on the opposite side of the ditch.

Wang An suddenly realized what "one day without seeing is like three autumns" meant.

Who could have thought of this? Two hours ago, the group was looking at this place from the opposite bank 20 meters away.

And now, two hours later, the group was standing here looking back...

After finding the tiger footprints, the group looked at this place deeply and simultaneously, and only then drove the sleds and continued to chase the tiger footprints.

With the arrival of night, the group couldn't chase anymore.

So taking advantage of the fact that it wasn't dark yet, the group stopped their steps.

For two consecutive days, the group ate canned meat and steamed buns for every meal.

Although canned meat was not bad and tasted good, to tell the truth, this stuff wasn't something one could eat for a long time.

In other words, after a few meals of this stuff, it could directly make people feel fed up.

One couldn't say what it tasted like; it made people feel nauseous.

Of course, this was only for the group, because among the nine people hunting tigers now, there wasn't a single one who was short on money.

So, Wang An planned to hunt something to eat.

Consequently, Wang An said to Mu Xueli and Wang Li:

"Xueli, Old Five, you two stop working for now; the three of us will figure out something to eat."

The two of them, upon hearing this, agreed and walked out.

It was just that Wang Shuai, after hearing Wang An's words, also became interested in figuring out something to eat.

Then Wang Shuai said to Wang An:

"I'll go too, I'll go too, take me with you."

It could be seen that the other five people also wanted to go, but it was very clear that going with so many people was useless.

Besides, picking up firewood and setting up tents also required people to do it, so the other five people didn't speak.

Wang An, after observing the direction, led Wang Shuai, Mu Xueli, and Wang Li, with three black dogs following behind, and walked into the woods.

The reason he didn't bring other dogs was that the other dogs had to stay behind to warn, and besides, the other dogs couldn't understand Wang An's words.

Actually, this time point could be considered before dusk; if it were already dark, Wang An would absolutely not dare to come out.

But many animals were just coming out of their nests.

For example, rabbits; although this stuff was there during the day, there would be more at night.

And things like hazel grouse and pheasants, their eyes couldn't see in the dark, so at this time point, they should find a place to hide.

Of course, wanting to find them, although not easy, wasn't difficult either.

Because dogs, whether catching rabbits or chasing pheasants and hazel grouse, were all their instincts.

And the reason Wang An wanted to observe the direction was that these few types of animals were all in the mountain hollows, and it had to be in the very middle of the hollow.

While walking into the hollow, Wang An talked to Da Hei:

"Da Hei, you tell the other two, don't bark randomly for a while; we're going to catch rabbits and hazel grouse."

Da Hei, upon hearing this, immediately hummed twice.

Whether Da Hei understood or not, Wang An didn't know, but Wang An felt Da Hei could understand.

A few minutes later, the four people and three dogs walked to the lowest part of the hollow and then walked forward along the bottom of the hollow.

Soon, Da Hei, after "woo-woo-ing" a few times, dashed forward, and immediately afterward, Er Hei and San Hei also dashed out.

At this time, Wang Shuai said to Wang An in surprise:

"Hey, this dog of yours is really magical; you said don't bark, and it doesn't bark."

Wang Shuai's voice wasn't small, so Wang An looked at Wang Shuai helplessly and said in a low voice:

"Big brother, do you know why I don't let the dogs bark?"

Wang Shuai, upon hearing this, was stunned for a moment, then immediately hit his own mouth lightly, looked at Wang An, and smiled embarrassedly.

Wang An didn't take it seriously either and continued to say in a low voice:

"This thing isn't that mysterious; it's fine to talk a little quieter."
