Under Gao Mingcheng's intimidation and expulsion, the Ma brothers took Mr. Luo away.

Gao Mingcheng picked up the two throwing knives and threw the military green peaked cap on the ground casually.

He followed them until he confirmed that they were indeed going down the mountain, and then he gave up.

After being delayed in the mountains for so long, it was getting late, and Gao Mingcheng was ready to return to the village. Even though he ran very fast, it was almost dark when he returned home.

Gao Mingcheng guessed that the group would have to stay in the mountain for one night. If they walked quickly, they would be able to completely go down the mountain and enter the village at the foot of the mountain before dark tomorrow.

During dinner, Duo Mei said at the dinner table: "Mingcheng, someone in the village has bought chemical fertilizer from the cooperative. Should we buy it too? We have little fertilizer at home and do not apply chemical fertilizer. We are afraid that we will not be able to grow rice and vegetables well."

Gao Mingcheng remembered that it was almost time to topdress, so he said: "I have to buy it. I will buy it when I have time tomorrow!"

Duo Meizhan smiled and asked: "You have been running to the mountains every day recently. Are you done with the things in the mountains?"

Gao Mingcheng couldn't laugh when he mentioned what happened in the mountains.

Today he drove a group of people away, but who knows if anyone else will enter the mountain?

He had actually considered setting up a trap, but had not yet made up his mind.

Setting traps in the mountains is actually very dangerous. If there is no companion to rescue you, your life may be in danger if you fall into the trap and get injured.

Gao Mingcheng wanted to protect his territory, but at the same time he didn't want to get involved in human lives.

He thought about it for a long time and thought that he might be able to use vines to set up a barrier to create a confusing effect. This would add some trouble to hunters entering the mountains, but it would not be enough to cause death.

But if you do this, the amount of work will be huge, after all, the mountains are too vast.

Gao Mingcheng woke up early the next morning. After washing briefly, he drank a glass of water, ate five French cakes, and then went to the mountains.

Hearing his movements, Black Tiger and Elf also woke up and came to him.

However, Gao Mingcheng did not intend to take them with him. With these two dogs around, his true identity would be easily exposed.

"Go away!" Gao Mingcheng patted Black Tiger's head. After Black Tiger understood, he took the elf back to the kennel and watched Gao Mingcheng leave.

In recent times, Gao Mingcheng has not taken them into the mountains.

After entering the mountain, Gao Mingcheng habitually practiced a set of boxing skills first, and then walked all the way to the location where he met the group of people yesterday. He speculated that they entered the mountain from the Kengli Village, and then removed the group of people they left yesterday. distance, and then come to a location.

It's just that he searched for a long time, but he didn't see any trace of that group of people.

Could it be that... they didn't go down the mountain?

Gao Mingcheng's expression was unswerving, but he was also a little helpless. He did not have clairvoyance, and he could not monitor the mountain range from 360 degrees without blind spots. Therefore, he could only expel and intimidate people after encountering them.

Gao Mingcheng stood on a high slope and looked around. He didn't find any traces of man-made things, so he was ready to leave.

The weather in May is gradually getting hotter. The scorching sun hangs in the sky. If you walk in the shade of the trees, it is still a little cool. If you stand under the sun, you can feel the sun exposure.

Gao Mingcheng found several peach trees in the mountains. There were many green fruits hanging on the peach trees. Only on the sunny side, the tips of the fruits were a little red, which was a sign that they were about to mature.

There is a lot of fuzz on the surface of the peach, which must be cleaned before it can be eaten. Otherwise, the hair will stick to the mouth and tongue, and the taste will be very bad.

Moreover, when Gao Mingcheng was a child, he heard from the old people in the village that when eating peaches, you should bite off the sharp points and not eat them. If you eat them, you will get red, pointed acne on your body.

Gao Mingcheng later learned that there was no direct causal relationship between the two, but he also developed the habit of not eating peach tips.

He carefully observed the peaches on the tree and estimated that they would only mature in June.

In addition to the peach trees, there are also some wild hawthorn trees, chestnut trees, and wild persimmon trees in the mountains, but it is not yet time to pick the fruits of these types.

As he walked along, he kept in mind all the products in the mountains.

In fact, he rarely comes here. After all, people's time and energy are limited. The place where he often moves is where the beehives and poria cocos are planted. Only when he is specifically hunting, he will bring the black tiger elf there. The mountain looks for prey and stalks it all the way.

This place is a bit far away from Gaojia Village. Even he has never been here before.

As Gao Mingcheng walked along, he saw a small stream in front of him. The stream was relatively shallow and filled with large rocks, but the water was clear and there were small fish and shrimp swimming in it.

Walking along the source of the creek, there is spring water gushing out. No wonder the water quality is excellent.

Gao Mingcheng happened to be thirsty, so he washed his hands first, and then drank the water. The spring water was sweet and cool, which quenched his thirst.

When he was about to leave, he suddenly found some animal droppings by the stream. After he carefully identified them, his expression instantly became solemn.

This is actually tiger excrement!

Tigers are cats, but unlike cats, tigers do not bury their poop. Instead, they mark their territory with their feces and urine, letting them emit a scent to warn nearby beasts that this is its territory. Please don't enter.

There were indeed South China tigers here in the past. In the past five years or so, tigers even came down the mountain to hurt people. At that time, if someone could kill a tiger, they would be called a tiger-killing hero!

Gao Mingcheng heard from Grandma Xi that at that time, three people in the village were eaten by tigers. One of them was drying rice in the village. A tiger entered the village and killed him when he was not prepared. Fortunately, the production team When other people knew about it, they came over with hoes, axes and machetes. With the overwhelming number of people, the tiger that bit the man to death was killed.

As for the other two who were bitten to death, they were attacked by tigers when they went into the mountains to collect firewood. When they were found, their bodies were almost eaten.

Because it was in the mountains, the tiger that killed the man was naturally not killed.

But then the production team organized a group of people to go into the mountains to hunt tigers. No tigers were caught, but after that, no tigers came down the mountains to eat people.

Gradually, it seemed that there were no more rumors about tigers in the mountains.

But until now, people in the village are still a little afraid of tigers. Sometimes children are disobedient and run around, especially into the mountains. So parents will say - there are tigers in the mountains, and tigers can eat people!

Therefore, in children's minds, tigers are beasts that can eat people.

After the black bear, he actually found the South China tiger in the mountains?

Gao Mingcheng was a little confused and worried at the same time.

In fact, humans are not in the tiger's diet, but once a tiger eats humans, it will continue to eat humans, especially old tigers. It is difficult for them to hunt other animals and they are often hungry. But at this time, they will find that hunting humans is better than Hunting wild boar, muntjac and other wild animals is much easier!

People can't run fast. If people don't have advanced weapons to protect themselves, their physical strength is not good, and the skin on their necks is thin, they can be easily bitten to death.

Therefore, once people discover that a tiger eats people, they must kill the tiger, otherwise its offspring will inherit the information that humans can be eaten. Since then, humans have been part of their diet.
