Zhang Zian turned around and saw something moving at the edge of his vision in the mist.

He put down the kettle, picked up the telescope, and adjusted the focus. When his vision became clear, he saw that the thing moved again. It was a pair of nimble ears.

He looked down and saw a pair of wet eyes looking in his direction warily under the leaves.

“My dear … Did you really attract the deer?” “This is not scientific!” Richard mumbled, staring at the small jar on his waist in awe.

The elves were also surprised. They couldn’t imagine how such an ordinary can could have such a large amount of magic power.

Zhang Zian knew that if he continued to deliberately hide it, it would probably arouse the anger of the people. He untied the small jar from his waist and put it on a clean stone by the stream. After a morning of trekking, the weight of the jar had been reduced a lot.

The elves gathered around curiously and sniffed carefully with their sharp noses. They asked in confusion,””Why does it taste like … Salt?”

Zhang Zian unscrewed the bottle cap and revealed the answer.

“That’s right, it’s salt, the cheapest salt you can buy from the supermarket. And this can is just the most common seasoning can. The hole in the cap can be twisted, but it’s blocked again. ” He turned the lid over and let them see the internal structure of the lid.

A Seasoning Bottle filled with salt was enough to attract the deer?

If it was really Aladdin’s magic lamp, perhaps everyone would accept it more …

Zhang Zian raised his binoculars and looked again. The deer was still there.

“This is a unique method of hunting deer in Northeast China. I’m not sure if other countries have it, but at least the United States doesn ‘t. Americans hunt deer for fun. They use guns to shoot, which is simpler and more violent, but also lacks wisdom and ingenuity.” He explained to the elves.

If cats were said to be creatures that did not touch a single grain of salt, then deer were creatures that loved salt as much as their lives. This was all because of their unique physiological structure and habits.

Cats were pure carnivores. The small animals they ate, such as mice, contained salt in their bodies, and they basically did not lose salt because of sweating. In addition, their kidneys were not good at excreting salt, so they did not need extra salt.

Deer were herbivores. Plants did not contain salt, and salt was a necessity for them to survive, so they had to find ways to replenish the salt in their bodies.

What to do when there’s no salt? He needed to find salt. Not only did they live in pursuit of water grass, but they also lived in pursuit of salt.

Not only deer, but animals like goats and yaks also liked to eat salt. However, deer liked to eat salt the most. They could even smell salt from far away and would go to eat it from far away.

People who worked in cattle, deer, and sheep farms all knew that these farms would place salt bricks for cattle, deer, and sheep to lick the salt.

Zhang Zian’s method was very simple. He took advantage of the deer’s obsession with salt and filled the seasoning Bottle with salt. This kind of Seasoning Bottle would leak out from the hole when he patted the bottom with his hand. He hung it around his waist, and as he walked, salt kept leaking out of the bottle. The leaking speed was very slow, but it could form an uninterrupted Salt Trail.

If a deer smelled salt, it would definitely follow the smell and lick the salt on the ground.

The deer’s walking speed in the forest was definitely much faster than Zhang Zian ‘s. Even though it was walking while licking the salt, it quickly caught up with him.

The Old Hunters in Northeast China used this method to hunt deer before the liberation. Of course, salt was very expensive in the past, and they couldn’t bear to waste it. So, they would first look for saline-alkali land in the forest, then lie in ambush around the saline-alkali land and wait for the deer to lick the salt frost. The wait might take two or three days, but for the survival of the family, it was worth the wait.

If they couldn’t find saline-alkali land in the forest, they might have to make it manually. For example, they would grind rock salt and sprinkle it on an open space, and then set traps and animal traps in the paths they had to pass.

Deer were very alert and had extremely sensitive hearing. They could often hear the sound of human movement from a kilometer away and avoid it. This was why deer were actually quite common in the National Park, but tourists and tourists were rare to see.

Zhang Zian knew that he would have to deal with deer on this trip to the United States, but if it was difficult to even see a deer, how could he investigate?

He looked it up on the internet and found that this traditional China method of hunting deer was simple and efficient. Even if it failed, he would not lose anything. So, after coming to the United States, he bought salt and seasoning bottles from the supermarket. When famous smelled the deer, he took it out and tried it. The result was really a lucky success.

This method was the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people in ancient China. It was definitely feasible. He had not been confident before because there was no sea next to the deep mountains and old forests in Northeast China. However, to the West of the mahogany forest was the Pacific Ocean. Could the deer here not lack salt at all? If he wanted to eat salt, he could go to the beach and lick it. It seemed like a good idea.

He had considered this problem before. Although seawater contained a lot of salt, the composition of seawater was very complicated. It was not only sodium chloride, but also potassium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, and so on. Deer might not be willing to take the risk of leaving the forest to drink salty seawater on an open beach. It tasted awful and had the risk of being exposed to hunters. The temptation of refined salt could not be completely replaced by seawater. They would rather eat salt in the forest.

It turned out that his judgment was correct. The salt and seasoning bottles that were bought for a few dollars had worked perfectly.

After listening to his explanation, the Elfins felt complicated.

“Humans die for wealth, birds die for food, deer … Actually grew on salt.” Richard sighed and said in a rare serious tone,””This can’t be known to the hunters in the United States, or the deer will be in trouble!”

“I think that a man who stands tall must be strong without desire. Because of desire, there is weakness.” Old time tea understood some philosophy from it.

In fact, it didn’t matter. Whether it was a Nature Reserve China or a forest Park in the United States, deer hunting had already been banned. So even if this method was spread, it was just a chance for tourists and tourists to have a good look.

As for the poachers … The poachers in China all knew this method, while the poachers in the United States only killed a few deer sporadically to satisfy their desire to track and kill. They would not use this unpassionate and challenging method to hunt deer.

“What do we do now?” Old time tea thought Zhang Zian was going to stop and study the deer behind him.

Zhang Zian shook his head and continued to pack his luggage.”Let’s keep going. Don’t worry about them. Let them know that we don’t have any ill intentions, and they will be more courageous.”
