Chapter 567 Accidents One After Another
"How many points?"
Bifang was holding a reed needle in his mouth, leaning against a tree with a spear in his arms, staring at the surveyors. The reed needle in his mouth kept shaking, as if it would shoot out at any time and pierce someone's neck.
March is the best season to eat cattail needles. The cattail needles in July are no longer edible because they are hard and prickly, and will cause nosebleeds if eaten.
Ikeda ticked the boxes on the paper nervously, beads of sweat the size of beans dripping from his temples. He felt as if there was a sharp blade hanging around his neck, its edge was threatening.
“Is it that hot?”
Ikeda laughed awkwardly: "No, no."
Bifang looked up at the sun. Even though it was midsummer, he was at least in the shade of the trees. He shouldn't be sweating profusely, right?
Young people nowadays are becoming more and more weak.
"So how many points?"
Chaki Shintaro on the other side shouted, "One meter and ninety!"
Ikeda was shocked. One and nine, how could there be such a coincidental number!
But Bifang on the other side was asking again. He quickly calculated, his scalp was numb, and he hesitated, "Seven, seven four?"
"You are the scorer, why are you asking me?" Bifang asked back. He always felt that the guy in front of him was guilty.
Steal my points?
Oh, forget it, just steal it.
It is really not my character to care about this one or two minutes.
trouble.
After confirmation, Bifang, which already had a score of 10.2, gained an additional 27.7 points.
A total of 37.2 points!
The hunting rankings jumped rapidly, and the name that had dropped to seventh place quickly jumped up and became first again!
It is nearly 20 points ahead of the second place Sato's 19.7!
Twenty points, that is the weight of two adult black bears. If you are not as lucky as Bifang to encounter a brown bear, or even a brown bear that is in hunting mode, it will normally take at least a week to catch up with it!
[Daytime Fireworks presents the protagonist with a wolf hair brush*1.00—to rub the spirit of little Japan! ]
[Thirty-five hunters, one hundred black bears, on average each hunter caught less than three bears. If we calculate based on the average of one bear per ten, Lao Fang has already exceeded the average.]
[And he was the first one to pass. The second place only had 19 points, which means there were only two black bears! ]

[There are so many rich people, please hug their thighs!!! Come to my live broadcast room and take a look. 】
After the scoring was completed, Bifang did not forget that there was a dead wild boar nearby, so he could be considered to have found a lucky opportunity.
Speaking of which, there have been a lot of prey these two days. The sika deer from a few days ago have not been eaten yet and are stored in the freezer of a restaurant. Today, a wild boar arrived.
A lot of harvest.
Inside the izakaya.
"Forty points? How can we catch up with this?"
Inside the restaurant, Tanaka and Okuyama were dumbfounded.
They were lucky. The two of them hunted three bears and ranked second... Oh, now they are third.
The efficiency is already high within five days. Normally, it should be the time for each person to have one.
But when each person had one, there was actually one person with four?
"Baga! We are bringing shame to the entire Yamato nation!" The cup was slammed heavily on the table. Okuyama let out a low growl, picked up the backpack beside him and walked out.
Now is not the time to rest, we must seize every opportunity to catch up!
Over the next few days, the rankings changed again and again.
Dolphin Bay is still the same as before, except that the bloody color of that day has disappeared. Now there are boats patrolling every day to check if there are any new groups of dolphins arriving.
Finally, on the eighth day, a hunter withdrew due to injury, but it was not because he was injured by a bear, but because he fell into a trap set by other hunters.
His thigh was pierced by the crossbow trap and he was nailed to the ground, unable to move. The scene was extremely bloody. Finally, the staff arrived and carried him onto a stretcher.
Fortunately , those who could come here were all experienced hunters who more or less knew some first aid, so nothing serious happened.
The hunter who set the trap afterwards was also punished, with two points deducted and his ranking dropped one place because the trap was not clearly marked.
Coincidentally, the person who was deducted points was Bosen.
What on earth is this old man trying to do?
Not only does Bifang have to deal with the night patrollers every day, but he also has to be careful of the old poisonous scorpion hiding in the dark.
The audience did not know what Benson had done before, they just felt that this old man was unlucky. He lost two points out of nowhere, and that was money.
Ten thousand yuan is gone.
[This is too outrageous. How can you blame others for something you stepped on? ]
[Bullying the elderly, right?]
"No, Benson does have to bear some responsibility." Bifang shook his head.
"I've watched the replay. Normal hunters wouldn't dig traps in places like that. Because it's not an animal trail, it's completely a matter of luck to put it there. Generally speaking, no animals will pass by. It's a waste of time."
"And there were no obvious markings around the trap, so the hunter stepped on it."
[Secret code? What is that?]
[Is it a sign? But won’t it be discovered by animals? ]
The audience was somewhat confused.
Bifang shook his head: "Hunters are actually just like animals. They care a lot about their own territory and usually only move around in areas they are familiar with. There are only a few like me who travel all over the world."
"In the past, hunters would have their own range of activities in the mountains. In order to avoid accidentally hurting others, they would make obvious marks near their traps, nets, or traps. Animals couldn't understand them, but hunters could tell at a glance, such as pressing down a fixed amount of weeds, etc."
Ordinary people are careless and have no awareness of this aspect, so they may fall into the trap even if they make secret marks.
How could someone who could obtain a professional hunter's license and hunt black bears using primitive methods not know this?
The physical strength of most hunters is already declining. They do not have the strong body of Bifang, and almost all of them rely on traps.
If someone falls into the trap, it can only be said that Benson did nothing and made the trap very hidden.
What kind of person would go to the trouble of setting up a trap in this completely useless place? Not only is it not an animal path, but he also didn't make any secret marks?
Putting bamboo strips to make elastic bamboo crossbow traps is a technique usually used by good hunters to catch wild animals. However, sharpened wooden stakes are more commonly used, and bamboo strips are used when time is of the essence.
Traps can catch animals, but they can also catch people.
In Bifang's eyes, what Benson did was against the rules.
Even in North America, based on development, this should not be unreasonable.
unless……
A map of the entire Honshu Island appeared in Bifang's mind. On the Kii Peninsula, in addition to Wakayama Prefecture, there were several other prefectures nearby, but there were only six hunters active near Wakayama Prefecture.
Bifang himself, including Bosen, Mugalen, who was injured and retired, and the other two combination hunters whom Bifang had never met and whose names he could not quite remember.
There are only these six.
Benson, could it be intentional?
Bifang was shocked.
One day later.
As expected, the accident happened again. It was the two hunters who had not met each other yet. This time it was even worse. They failed and were attacked by more than two brown bears.
Those were the second and third brown bears that had appeared during the hunting season, and the two hunters were terrified when they saw them.
The situation was so urgent that all the viewers in Bifang’s own live broadcast room ran away.
Almost at the moment they met, the two of them had no hesitation and only had one thought in mind.
escape!
Run as far as you can.
The two men turned and fled.
It would have been fine if the brown bears were fighting, but unfortunately, the two brown bears were only in a state of confrontation. When they encountered the two people who broke into the battlefield, they chased them in anger.
The two were not familiar with each other, but they were both from the Ugly Country, so they chose to team up. When disaster struck, they all fled for their lives.
The two brown bears seemed to have made an agreement beforehand, one chasing the other.
Tens of millions of viewers watched the whole thing like a movie, their palms chock-full of sweat. The entire process took place 13 kilometers away from the top of Bifang Mountain, but they were powerless to do anything.
They were two adult male brown bears, each about two meters and three meters tall, comparable to the one Bifang encountered.
Even worse than that.
Because fights between brown bears are often fought by the latecomer challenging the king, which means that one of them is the bear king.
The body length of a brown bear is between 1.5 and 2.8 meters, but due to the low latitude of Japan, the size of a brown bear basically does not exceed 2.4 meters.
This is not a movie. Leo has a rifle, but these two don't. The only thing that can save their lives is the alarm.
After the incident, the Japanese government was stunned and dispatched guards and helicopters on standby as quickly as possible.
The audience also realized for the first time that people are really different from each other. The reason why Bifang was able to escape from the brown bear was not luck, but strength, and he had the confidence to wait for the poison to take effect.
The two men could not be said to be bad. The moment the brown bear pounced, they waited for the bullet to be fired.
After that, the live broadcast was cut off.
[Reminder: You can breathe]
[I’m a little scared. Will anything happen to these two people? ]
【Hope everyone is OK】
The comments were all filled with prayers.
The netizens finally understood what a brown bear means to humans.
That's a scary monster.
After this happened, all the hunters lost their mood. In less than three days, three hunters had accidents. This situation meant that they were destined to be eliminated.
At night, Bifang was sitting by the campfire, roasting wild boar meat and gnawing it with difficulty, when he received the notice from the Japanese government.
One is a medical identification report, the second is a statement about the live broadcast, and the third is about the identities of the two brown bears.
Bifang read the first two carefully and said to the audience: "Fortunately, there is no danger to life, only fractures, most of which are in the limbs, and there is no disability. The live broadcast can continue, there is no problem."
After hearing Bifang's personal admission, the netizens all breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to discuss the thrill of the day.
So scary.
Thinking about the life-and-death crisis Bifang had encountered before, it was even more fucking terrifying.
Bifang was chewing on pork, feeling depressed.
No one would be happy if encountering such a thing. Now in Wakayama Prefecture, only Bosen, Mugalen, and Bifang himself are left.
That old bastard now has 23 points and is in third place.
While reading the third report, Bifang bit the wild boar meat with difficulty. His cheeks felt sore, as if he was biting into dried shredded beef.
This thing tastes so rough!
It's hard to cut and even harder to bite! Without a pressure cooker, it's really difficult to handle wild boar meat. And the wild boar has not been castrated, so the smell is extremely strong.
If I hadn't had a good set of teeth, my teeth would be full of meat threads now.
[These two people are really unlucky. They actually encountered such a thing.]
[Lao Fang encountered a brown bear killing a black bear, which was simple. These two were really unlucky, and encountered a brown bear fighting a brown bear.]
[Still in a standoff, I'm so unlucky for eight lifetimes]
At this time, Bifang also finished reading the third notice. As expected, one of the bears was the bear king. The Japanese even gave it a special name, Matsutaro.
A famous sumo wrestler in ancient Japan.
This guy's body length reaches an astonishing 2.47 meters, which is over 2.4 meters and close to 2.5 meters, which is quite rare in Japan.
As for the other one, it was obviously challenging the brown bear.
[Ah, didn't Lao Fang say that brown bears don't have a strong sense of territory? Why are they still fighting? ]
Bifang shook his head: "It's different . A weak sense of territory does not conflict with being the king of the tribe and monopolizing the rights and food of Jiaoxi."
As long as you become the king, you can legitimately take away food. If you resist, it will be regarded as a challenge.
"There is a huge gap between people, and the same is true between animals. The strength of the bear king is often much higher than that of its peers. Of the two injured, the one who encountered the bear king was the most unlucky. He was seriously injured. When the helicopter arrived, it was shot more than a dozen times."
"As for the other one, it only took five shots to kill it. Even if I were to encounter it, it would be very dangerous and I would probably be knocked down."
"Some animal kings can even become famous around the world, such as Tuyuk, the brown bear king in Alaska's Katmai National Park. He has been the bear king in the Katmai area for more than 10 years. Thousands of brown bears live in his habitat, and they all compete for the same food."
"But King Tuyuk was always able to control the largest of the several brown bear territories in the Katmai area, and was challenged many times by other male bears, whose main purpose was to seize territory, gain sovereignty and compete for a unique food - salmon. It was not until he was old that he stepped down and was driven away."
"In addition, the Alaskan Peninsula giant bear king - Fan, this guy is even more powerful. At his peak, he weighed more than 680 kilograms and his skeleton was ridiculously large."
The research institutes that discovered it at that time were fascinated by it.
"I've never seen a bear so arrogant before. The other bears didn't even dare to take any action, such as trying to intimidate or challenge it. They just left or even turned around and ran away."
"In addition, there is Pirro, the bear king of the Pyrenees. He ruled for a longer period of time, more than 20 years, and was extremely tyrannical. He had a strong desire to control female bears and especially liked to kill cubs. This was so serious that it affected the number of local brown bears."
Piro's behavior is equivalent to a bear killing a group of bears until their population is in danger of extinction.
"These guys are the human equivalent of the King of Chu, Lü Fengxian, and Hannibal of the West. They have overwhelming dominance over ordinary bears."
There was envy in Bifang's tone.
Now he might be able to deal with some ordinary bears by exploiting their weaknesses, but he would have no chance of winning against a guy like this.
That's another level, maybe the double orange max level skill can be tried?
Or higher?
