On the newly built Wood Transport Route of the Yong'an Forest Farm, a Jiefang truck was parked on the side of the road. Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu, Zhang Yuanmin, and Jie Chen all got out.
Zhao Jun glanced at both sides of the road, then led Black Tiger up the East Slope.
Just as he had told Jie Chen yesterday, a hunter needed to know more than just the lay of the land and the habits of beasts; they also had to understand the climate and the seasons.
After the Start of Autumn, the temperature difference between morning and evening was significant, so wild boars were certain to stay on the sunny slopes before leaving their lairs in the morning.
Once up the slope, Zhao Jun let Black Tiger off the leash. The four men then began to patrol the ridge at a leisurely pace.
As they walked, Black Tiger moved ahead of Zhao Jun, constantly sniffing at the branches along the path. At a hand signal from Zhao Jun, everyone slowed their pace and followed Black Tiger quietly.
