Chapter 1937 A Bear Killed in the Forest with a Pee in His Mouth
Zhao Youcai lay down and then got up again, startling Zhao Jun.
"What are you doing, Dad?" Zhao Jun asked Zhao Youcai, and Zhao Youcai waved to Zhao Jun and said, "Come over here."
"What's all this fuss about?" Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai switched places. Zhao Youcai moved from the right to the left, which was the spot where Gu Yang had been lying on the watchtower the night the big brown bear pried open.
He could lie down here, but as soon as he did, Zhao Youcai's heart pounded, and he remembered how Gu Yang had wet his pants in fear here that day.
Distracted, Zhao Youcai began to let his mind wander.
"I can't let the bear scare me to death today, can I?" Suddenly, this thought flashed through Zhao Youcai's mind.
Then, Zhao Youcai's condition worsened.
Who am I?
Zhao Youcai, the invincible sharpshooter, the number one shooter in Yong'an, and the tiger-slaying king who killed three tigers, what if he were scared to death by a bear? Would he even survive?
I can't let the reputation I've built up over a year go to waste!
While Zhao Youcai was lost in thought, Zhao Jun, who was lying next to him, sensed that something was wrong.
Zhao Jun tilted his head to look at Zhao Youcai, who was lying there bulky in a cotton-padded jacket and trousers. As his body trembled slightly, the two trouser legs rubbed together, making a soft rustling sound.
This definitely isn't leg shaking, and it can't be from being cold... it must be from being scared!
"Oh my goodness." This time it was Zhao Jun's turn to sit up.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Youcai asked, already flustered and troubled. Zhao Jun countered, "Dad, what happened the night you last came?"
"What...what's going on?" Zhao Youcai tried to remain calm and said, "Why don't you just kowtow...what? I shot it in the head and killed it instantly."
Even at this point, this old bastard is still pretending.
But seeing that he couldn't even utter the three words "Big Bear Overlord," Zhao Jun knew something was wrong.
"Ah." Zhao Jun stared at Zhao Youcai's face and said, "That Xiong Ba is no small fry..."
As Zhao Jun spoke, he observed his father. When Zhao Jun mentioned the words "Big Bear Tyrant," Zhao Youcai suddenly flinched.
Zhao Jun's lips twitched, and he immediately asked Zhao Youcai, "Dad, tell me the truth, were you scared by Big Bear?"
"No?" Zhao Youcai straightened his upper body, slightly flustered but trying to sound tough, and said, "What the hell are you saying? Do you think I'd let you scare me? I'd shoot it dead with one shot!"
Zhao Youcai's voice grew softer and softer as he spoke, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.
Zhao Jun's lips twitched; he was speechless.
Although he didn't know exactly what happened that night, Zhao Jun knew that Zhao Youcai was indeed frightened.
For a moment, Zhao Jun was filled with worry for Zhao Youcai.
Zhao Jun was worried that the hunters would take time to recover after being startled by wild boars, bears, or other ferocious beasts.
At first, he was terrified at the mere mention of the wild beast, and would be terrified at the mere mention of it. This state requires a period of recovery; he needs to rest at home for a while, until the mention of the ferocious beast no longer frightens him, and then he can consider going up the mountain again.
Someone like Zhao Youcai, who went up the mountain before he had even recovered from the shock, and who was already terrified by the bear, was likely to encounter it right away. In that situation, if the bear roared, Zhao Youcai would very well wet his pants.
If this happened to someone else, they would just laugh it off.
But Zhao Youcai was a man who cared a lot about his reputation. If he were so scared that he wet his pants, especially in front of his son, he would either jump into the East Ditch or run away from home afterward.
This outcome was unacceptable to Zhao Jun and unbearable for the Zhao family.
Therefore, Zhao Jun's fear at this moment was even greater than Zhao Youcai's.
"Dad," Zhao Jun said to Zhao Youcai, "Let's stop fighting and go home."
What unit mission? What ginseng king conference? At this moment, Zhao Jun had completely forgotten about them. He had to take care of his father and his family.
"Hmm?" Zhao Youcai was taken aback by Zhao Jun's words, quite tempted by the suggestion. But the next second, Zhao Youcai whispered to Zhao Jun, "Go back what? What will we do back there? What will we say when we go back?"
Yes, what should we say when we get back?
They said it was killed by that black bear? What about the bear's gallbladder?
So he's saying he was scared, so he and his son came back? If Zhao Youcai could swallow his pride, he wouldn't have come.
Hearing Zhao Youcai's words, Zhao Jun was utterly speechless. Wasn't this just like applying rouge before going to the coffin—a desperate attempt to save face?
"Dad!" Zhao Jun stood up, grabbed Zhao Youcai's arm, and said, "What time is it? Why are you still worrying about that?"
"Get the hell out of here!" Zhao Youcai broke free from Zhao Jun's grasp and swung his pestle back to shove it into Zhao Jun's chest.
This blow left Zhao Jun breathless for two seconds.
At this moment, Zhao Jun was really angry. He really wanted to ignore Zhao Youcai and let the bear scare him to death.
But then I thought, if things got to that point, my stubborn father would at least run away from home.
Thinking of this, Zhao Jun calmed down and patiently said to Zhao Youcai, "Dad, it's normal that we got scared while hunting. We can't push things too hard now, or it will be even more embarrassing."
Zhao Jun's words made sense, but how could someone who is so concerned about saving face be so easily persuaded?
Seeing Zhao Youcai turn his head away and ignore him with his neck stiff, Zhao Jun was both angry and anxious. In a moment of inspiration, he said to Zhao Youcai, "Dad, how about this? We'll pack our things and leave, but we won't go home. We'll stay in our shack for the night."
Let's go home tomorrow morning. When we get home, we'll say... say that neither of us squatted down. Then tomorrow afternoon, I'll bring the others over. Is that alright?
Hearing Zhao Jun's words, Zhao Youcai's small eyes blinked, and he was genuinely tempted.
Doing it as Zhao Jun suggested not only saved his face but also solved his fear of bears.
Zhao Youcai remained silent, but this time his silence was different from the last. Last time, his silence was defiance, but this time it was acquiescence.
Zhao Jun twitched the corner of his mouth; at this moment, he understood Xie Yongqiang a little. Xie Yongqiang had a favorite saying, "That's just how my dad is," a phrase filled with helplessness.
Seeing that his father was like this, Zhao Jun had no choice but to go along with Zhao Youcai.
Zhao Jun got up, took off his cotton-padded jacket and trousers, and then began to roll up the mattress.
By the time he finished packing his luggage, Zhao Youcai hadn't moved an inch.
"Dad," Zhao Jun called to Zhao Youcai, "Let's go somewhere else. Come over here and take off your cotton-padded coat and stuff. Then I'll make you a mattress."
After his son had laid down the steps and made sure they were secure, Zhao Youcai moved to the other side, quickly took off his cotton-padded jacket and trousers, and tossed them to Zhao Jun.
As Zhao Jun packed Zhao Youcai's luggage, he comforted himself. In his previous life, he hadn't been by his father's side during his final years and hadn't been able to fulfill his filial duties; this was his way of making up for it.
After he finished manipulating himself, Zhao Jun had already packed Zhao Youcai's luggage.
The father and son, carrying luggage and guns, walked towards the Zhao family's shack with flashlights on their backs.
As they walked, Zhao Youcai handed the flashlight to Zhao Jun, then took out his cigarette case, thinking of taking a cigarette to smoke.
Having squatted on the lookout tower for so long without smoking, Zhao Youcai's nicotine cravings had long since kicked in.
"Dad, keep an eye on things, we're going downhill." Zhao Jun reminded Zhao Youcai when they were about 200 meters away from the shack.
But as soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, a deep roar faintly came from below.
"Awooo... Awooo..."
The moment he heard the roar, Zhao Youcai felt a chill run down his spine, and his face and scalp went numb as if he were being electrocuted. He dropped his cigarette and cigarette case to the ground, and a sudden urge to urinate struck him.
At this point, about a mile down from Zhao Jiabang's shack, there is a pine tree.
The wind snapped the tree in half, with the upper and lower sections forming a right-angled triangle with the ground.
At this moment, the black bear that fought the Bai family gang was lying under this tree howling in pain.
The black bear had its rear end sticking out. The knife wounds on its rear end weren't too serious, but what was serious was its anus, which had been stabbed open by Bai Zhiping and was now covered with congealed blood and feces.
Bai Zhiping's knife pierced through the anus, damaging the head of the large intestine and tearing a section of the intestine.
Under such circumstances, the black bear had no chance of survival. Even if Zhao Jun and his men didn't attack, the bear was doomed.
But bears are incredibly resilient; they can survive for at least two days. However, getting them up and running again is impossible.
It will become weaker and weaker, and suffer more and more.
The pain caused the black bear to howl incessantly, and the valley acted like an amplifier, with the bear below and in the narrow passage, allowing the sound to travel upwards and reach the ears of the Zhao family father and son.
"Dad, let's go!" Zhao Jun sensed something was wrong upon hearing the voice and quickly turned around to grab Zhao Youcai's arm.
"Don't touch me!" Zhao Youcai glared at Zhao Jun and roared.
At this moment, Zhao Youcai gritted his teeth, clamped his legs and buttocks together, tensing his whole body and focusing all his strength on his lower abdomen.
Zhao Youcai was so afraid to move that if Zhao Jun pulled him, wouldn't he pee his pants?
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was taken aback, and then he heard a faint roar of a bear.
The bear was nearly two miles away, and since the sound wasn't nearby, Zhao Jun didn't feel anything when he heard it.
But at this moment, Zhao Youcai couldn't hold his urine anymore. When he felt he was about to lose control, his endless shame and annoyance turned into anger.
"I'm pretty!" Zhao Youcai's small eyes widened as he burst into curses.
"Huh?" Zhao Jun thought Zhao Youcai was cursing him. Just as Zhao Jun was about to get angry, he saw Zhao Youcai shake his back and throw off his luggage roll.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Youcai swayed his shoulder and flung the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle in front of him.
With the steel gun in hand, Zhao Youcai's small eyes widened, filled with murderous intent.
"Give it to me!" Zhao Youcai snatched the flashlight from Zhao Jun's hand, then rushed out with a gun in one hand and the flashlight in the other.
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was shocked to see this and reached out to grab Zhao Youcai, but he missed.
"Dad!" Zhao Jun called out, and Zhao Youcai had already dashed out.
Zhao Jun lifted his foot to chase after him, but after running only two steps, everything went black.
At this moment, Zhao Youcai moved through the forest like a Siberian leopard.
As Zhao Youcai continued onward, the black bear's howls grew clearer and clearer.
But at this moment, Zhao Youcai no longer felt the urge to urinate; all he felt was intense killing intent.
"Bang..." Zhao Youcai, not paying attention to his footing, tripped over a tree branch and fell face-first into the mud.
But as he fell, Zhao Youcai raised his hands to protect his gun and flashlight.
Zhao Youcai felt a slight stinging sensation on his face, but he ignored it and got up, following the sound of the bear's roar.
As Zhao Youcai drew closer, the black bear noticed him and roared louder, hoping to scare away the invading enemy.
But Zhao Youcai didn't back down at all; instead, he quickened his pace.
Suddenly, Zhao Youcai stopped and then slowed down to reach to the right.
Zhao Youcai was experienced; he could tell there was something wrong with the black bear just from its howling.
Zhao Youcai guessed that the black bear might have fallen into an old trap, or it might have been seriously injured.
Either way, it's very dangerous for people.
But Zhao Youcai was determined, thinking to himself, "You little punk, I'll beat you to a pulp today! Otherwise, that brat will laugh at me!"
With this belief, when Zhao Youcai was still sixteen or seventeen meters away from the broken tree, the big black bear roared.
This is also a belief!
It's very unusual that this big black bear, after being injured, would come down from the hill, run only four or five hundred meters, and then collapse.
The big black bear wouldn't have been lying here if it weren't for the dire situation.
Moreover, if no one or no large animals disturb it, this black bear might never get up until it dies.
But as Zhao Youcai drew closer, the black bear struggled to its feet.
"Huff... Huff..." The wailing turned into a roar of protest.
The bear's roar was right next to him, and Zhao Youcai felt a chill run down his spine and his face turn as if struck by lightning, but this was a normal physiological reaction.
Zhao Youcai was unaffected, but he tilted his head to the right and held the flashlight between his right cheek and right shoulder.
At the same time, Zhao Youcai changed to holding the gun with both hands, stood in a relatively open area, and shuffled forward little by little with both feet.
"Hmph..." The bear roared again, accompanied by the sound of something scraping against the tree branches. Zhao Youcai took a deep breath, took two more steps forward, and leaned his back against the trunk of a large ash tree.
Then, Zhao Youcai closed his eyes slightly and pricked up his ears.
When he heard the splashing sound coming from the left, Zhao Youcai suddenly turned around.
As Zhao Youcai turned around, the beam of his flashlight shone between the two trees.
The moment the light passed, it was still pitch black. But in the blink of an eye, a bear's face suddenly appeared there.
The moment he saw the bear's face, Zhao Youcai brought the gun to its face.
At this moment, Zhao Youcai still had a flashlight tucked under his shoulder, because he would tilt his head to the right when he was about to fire.
When he raised the gun, the butt was against his shoulder, and the flashlight was on his shoulder, so it didn't delay him at all.
When Zhao Youcai's gaze fell on Qiang Xing, he saw the bear-like face float up.
That's a bear suddenly attacking and about to hurt someone!
"Bang!" Zhao Youcai pulled the trigger without hesitation.
So close, Zhao Youcai could see through the gun's beam that the bear's face shattered instantly.
Meanwhile, Zhao Jun, who had also heard the gunshots, was rushing downhill with a pine torch in hand.
Zhao Youcai took the flashlight, and Zhao Jun stumbled several times before finally reaching the shack in the dark.
Upon reaching the shack, Zhao Jun took out a match. He lit a torch with birch bark from the shack, and then, without pausing for a moment, hurried down the road.
The moment he heard the gunshot, Zhao Jun felt a chill run down his spine.
Hunting a bear in the dark in the woods is different from lying in wait on a lookout tower. Hunting a bear in the forest at night is a matter of life and death.
Zhao Jun quickened his pace as he walked down the road, calling out, "Dad! Dad..."
Zhao Jun's heart sank as he shouted, until he heard a whistle.
Upon hearing the whistle, Zhao Jun was overjoyed, but then an unprecedented anger rose from the bottom of his heart.
