Xiao Yu was wearing a jungle camouflage combat uniform and tactical vest, combat boots, and a camouflage Bonnie hat. He held a Remington M870 shotgun in his hand, a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle on his back, and a 5.8mm QSG92 pistol in the tactical holster on the outer side of his right thigh. He was currently advancing in a dense forest. The forest was 561 acres, close to Xiao Yu's ranch and connected to Yellowstone National Park. Xiao Yu bought it for more than 870,000 US dollars not long ago.
After a few days of adjustment from the " special forces " world, Xiao Yu felt really uncomfortable. It was mainly because it was inconvenient to practice, and he was used to training every day. Suddenly not practicing made him feel uncomfortable, so he decided to change his residence. Since there was no place in the country where Xiao Yu could undergo military training, especially in firearms shooting, he considered it again and again and sought Jiang Yan's opinion. Hence, he decided to buy a ranch in the M Nation.
He sent the Van Gogh painting that he had brought back from the Peace Hotel to Sotheby's for auction, earning more than 110 million USD. Then, he spent more than 5.7 million USD to buy a ranch that covered more than 5,500 acres in Lewiston, Montana.America.
This ranch was considered a small to medium-sized ranch in Monica. It turned out that the rancher's house was not bad either. It was a three-story brick-concrete building that was hidden between a few large cedar trees and American red maples. It was exceptionally beautiful, and there was a large basement and wine cellar. The courtyard was huge and filled with all kinds of flowers and plants. Of course, the entire ranch belonged to Xiao Yu. He could build a yard as big as he wanted. There was also a swimming pool built in the sun room behind the house.
The entire building was located on a hill that was more than three meters high. There was a relatively large artificial lake not far below, and the water source came from a river near the ranch.
It was a stable that could accommodate more than forty horses. Beside the stable was a large, round wooden barn. Next to the barn was a large warehouse. The original rancher left behind two pickup trucks, five all-terrain vehicles, a tractor, some lawnmowers, balers, and other machinery.
At the same time, there were 20 acres of top-grade grape fields and 100 acres of high-grade grape fields in the ranch, as well as a winery. The annual output of wine was about 25,000 boxes.
The farm was still operating normally, and its operations were healthy and stable. The annual net income was nearly two million dollars. It was just that after the old rancher passed away, the son of the rancher was unwilling to return to the countryside to run the ranch. Because his company had encountered some problems recently and urgently needed a cash flow, he sold the ranch.
After buying the ranch, he successfully got a green card. These were all handled by the bank for Xiao Yu, including the purchase of the ranch. Because Xiao Yu's income after the auction was deposited in this bank, the bank specially arranged a team to serve Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu had been in the forest for two weeks, and he contacted the ranch every three days with a satellite phone to report his safety. There was a campsite in the mountain forest. It was a decent wooden house with a size of about 150 square meters. There were six rooms. Other than the master bedroom, the remaining five rooms were of different sizes. There was also a living room, dining room, and kitchen. Because it was originally just a hunting lodge, the decoration and furniture were relatively ordinary. The water needed to be connected to the water pipe from the stream next to it to guide the water into the house. There was no need to worry about power generation. A small generator could ensure the use of electric lights here. Forget about the television, there was no signal deep in the mountains.
Xiao Yu came here to finish some work at the campsite and to investigate the wild animals in the forest farm. More importantly, Xiao Yu was doing it for a bear, a bear that had eaten a human. This was the most dangerous bear, even more dangerous than those aggressive male bears and female bears with cubs!
It was originally a private hunting ground, but because a self-righteous customer thought he knew everything, he did not listen to the hunting guide's advice and was killed by a bear. This was also why this mountain forest was sold at such a low price. Xiao Yu not only had the right to mine the trees, but he also had the right to hunt.
Xiao Yu wanted to solve this hidden danger to prevent the bear from running to the farm to hurt people. Of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility that Xiao Yu liked to stay in the mountains. This place was deep in the mountains and forests, and there were few people. Here, Xiao Yu felt more at ease and at ease. In fact, he was still not used to the world of special forces after returning. It was just like when he had just retired from the army. Everything was not right.
Xiao Yu first walked around the wooden house and carefully checked every corner. There were no signs of wild beasts invading, and there were no rats or scorpions. He could rest assured.
After checking the house, he naturally needed to go outside and take a look. The safety of the campsite in the forest could not be neglected. Although it was relatively safe here, it was still deep in the forest. There might be wild beasts lurking nearby.
Xiao Yu's expression changed when he arrived at the house.
He saw some scratch marks on the corner of the wooden house and squatted down to take a look. Although Xiao Yu was not an experienced hunter, he knew that this was left by a black bear. There were black bears around the campsite!
Hence, Xiao Yu brought his equipment and some supplies and closed the door of the camp. He set up some traps in the surroundings to prevent thieves. The main purpose was to prevent wild animals from breaking in and causing damage.
Gradually, when he was about three miles away from the camp, Xiao Yu noticed that something was wrong. He smelled an unpleasant smell that was getting stronger and stronger.
The stench was very pungent and disgusting. This should be the bear nest. The black bear had chosen to build its nest in a crack in the rocks in the sunny area. Dry grass, leaves, or moss were the best bedding. The soil on the open space was also messy because of the black bear's activities.
The nest was here. In front of the nest, there were some pieces of meat and remains. It was these rotten pieces of meat that brought about a strong pungent smell. Xiao Yu knew that this was an extremely dangerous black bear.
Xiao Yu picked up the shotgun, opened the safety, loaded it, and followed the black bear's tracks. Therefore, Xiao Yu had been tracking this black bear for more than a week. This bear was very cunning, as if it was playing hide-and-seek with Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu would not underestimate the black bear. He knew that the bear was actually a relatively smart animal. To underestimate these ferocious animals was to be irresponsible for their own safety.
Xiao Yu hadn't returned to the camp for a week. When he was hungry, he would get some rabbits and pheasants. When he was thirsty, there was a lot of pure water in the space. When he was sleepy, he would climb up a tree to sleep. Today, Xiao Yu was ready to go back. He had already searched the area within a 10-kilometer radius around the camp.
After returning to the campsite, he turned on the generator and water supply valve, unloaded the equipment, and took a good shower. He turned on the sound system, and a simple and steady country music began to play. He took out a large piece of steak and simply fried it. When it was about medium well, he turned off the fire and placed it on the plate. This was dinner.
Staying in the depths of the forest was almost isolated from the world, but Xiao Yu was not the least bit uncomfortable. He felt that such a simple life was very good. He liked this kind of life.
The sun had set. Xiao Yu did not turn on the lights. He sat by the lake and enjoyed the moment. The air was fresh, and there was a breeze blowing from time to time. Looking up at the starry sky, it was a beautiful scene.
Xiao Yu entered a meditative state once again. Suddenly, a rustling sound was heard. Xiao Yu slowly opened his eyes, then quickly took out a shotgun from the space and fired at the place where the sound came from.
An angry roar sounded, but the sound of the black bear fleeing could also be heard. It was obvious that the black bear had appeared at the campsite again. It had smelled the scent of humans, but it was frightened by the sudden loud noise. It was furious, but it still turned around and fled. It sensed danger.
Xiao Yu ran over to check on the other party that the black bear had just stayed with. He found that there were some blood stains on some dried leaves and grass on the ground, indicating that the black bear was injured. Xiao Yu did not continue to chase, but returned to the wooden house. Because the appearance of the black bear interrupted Xiao Yu's meditation, he went to sleep.
The next morning, Xiao Yu took his equipment and went to find Black Bear. Xiao Yu believed that the bear was injured and wouldn't run too far. Xiao Yu carefully searched every trace and soon found some blood stains, so he followed the blood stains all the way.
Suddenly, the bushes and weeds shook, and the sound of branches breaking could be heard clearly. A huge creature walked out of the forest with its unique pace. It was less than 100 meters away from Xiao Yu. This was the largest distance in the forest. The black bear seemed to have discovered Xiao Yu. It stood up and roared, rushing towards Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu quickly picked up the shotgun, opened the safety, loaded it, and aimed.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The three shots all hit the black bear's chest, but the bear seemed to be unconcerned about its injuries. It became even angrier and rushed over at a faster speed.
At this time, Xiao Yu already had no time to aim. This bear was really too big. Just as the black bear rushed in front of Xiao Yu and waved its paw towards Xiao Yu's head. Xiao Yu threw away his gun and crouched down. Instead of retreating, he charged forward, lowered his waist, and leaned his back against the black bear. The black bear fell backward, and Xiao Yu also took a few steps back, leaving a few deep footprints on the ground.
At this moment, the black bear began to weaken. The wound on its chest kept bleeding, and blood kept flowing out of its mouth. The black bear was even more furious. It roared and charged at Xiao Yu again, vowing to kill this human. Xiao Yu also went up to meet him. Suddenly, two horizontal knives appeared in his hands, and he used the Eight Slashes Blade. The alloy sharp blade, coupled with Xiao Yu's force, easily cut open the bear paw. The black bear howled in pain. Xiao Yu turned around and held the knife in his right hand. A cold light flashed and the black bear's head was cut off. Blood spurted out from the headless neck like a fountain.
Looking at the headless bear corpse on the ground, Xiao Yu took out the satellite phone and contacted the ranch. He told them the location and asked the ranch manager to bring people to deal with it. In the United States, there were regulations to deal with dangerous beasts that were killed by attacking humans, so Xiao Yu couldn't deal with it himself. The ranch manager was an old cowboy, and he was very experienced in this area.
