Chapter 1521
After the black bear fled in a panic, the forest returned to silence.
Zhang Zian's heavy breathing gradually subsided.
Previously, he had clearly carried the bear-proof spray, but he still intended to escape, because he could not bet on the success rate of the spray. If the bear was not afraid of the spray, or the spray itself lost its effect, then wouldn't he be seeking death?
"Kaka! Why did it suddenly become so quiet? Have I already become a bear's poop?" "Blind Richard!" Cried out the blind man.
"Squeak! Squeak!"
Pi was dancing with excitement, as happy as a Festival.
The other Elfins had wanted to come over, but they had a keen sense of smell. The spray in the air hadn't dissipated yet, and the strong spicy smell was also very irritating to them.
The buck on the ground struggled to get up. He shone his flashlight on it and saw several bloody marks on its side, which were scratched by the bear's claws. Each bloody mark was almost enough to reach a person's little finger. Fortunately, it was a deer. If it were a human, its belly might have been cut open.
Its wound had to be treated because black bears liked to lick their claws, and there was a lot of bacteria on them. If the wound was not treated, it could get septicaemia.
He took out a first aid kit from his backpack and a bottle of hydrogen peroxide, scissors, gauze, and disposable gloves. He tried to approach it from the back, staring at the deer Horn on its head.
He didn't dare to approach from the direction of its head. If it was still in shock and thought that he was an enemy, it would use its Deer Horn to hit him, and he would die before he could get away.
The buck was seriously injured, and the wound hurt so much that it trembled and could barely stand. When it saw Zhang Zian coming over, it instinctively wanted to stay away, but it only took two steps before it pulled on its wound. Its knees went soft, and it almost fell again.
Zhang Zian finally walked to its side and whispered,""I'm here to help you. Don't be afraid. "
Although the buck couldn't understand, his animal instinct made him feel his kindness. If he wanted to hurt him, he would have done so at such a close distance.
He put on a pair of gloves, cut the fur near the wound with a pair of scissors, opened a bottle of hydrogen peroxide, and poured it on the wound to disinfect it.
The low concentration of hydrogen peroxide didn't stimulate the wound, so the buck didn't feel any extra pain.
He then washed away the remaining hydrogen peroxide with clean, filtered, warm water, and wrapped the gauze around its chest and abdomen many times, then tied a knot. If possible, of course, it would be best to stitch up the wound, but he didn't have the right thread. Even if he did, it would be difficult to stitch it up at night. This was different from the minke whale's situation. The minke whale was stranded on the beach and couldn't move much, and its blubber was very thick. But if the deer was in unbearable pain, who knew how it would struggle?
Fortunately, the deer was very cooperative except for when it trembled a little when he tied the bandage.
Zhang Zian didn't know if this was the right thing to do. Maybe not interfering with the deer's life and death was the right choice. After all, it was part of the park's ecosystem. If it died of septicaemia, its corpse would also become a stepping stone for the survival of many scavengers.
After the wound was bandaged, the Buck's mood seemed to have stabilized. It grunted a few times, and the sound was similar to that of a cow 's. Then, it walked to the stream with small steps and lowered its head to drink.
At this time, there was another sound from the woods not far away. Zhang Zian shone his flashlight over and saw that the deer that had just escaped had carefully returned. They might have heard the deer's call and knew that the danger was over, so they came back to find the deer.
After this little episode, the deer seemed to have completely let down its guard against Zhang Zian. When Zhang Zian was counting the losses, it and the herd of deer had been staying about ten steps away. Perhaps it was because of the existence of a common enemy that made him stand on the same front as them, and his mentality had undergone subtle changes.
The tent was kicked over by the galloping deer. Fortunately, the tent's fabric was very elastic and smooth, so it didn't break. Only the alloy frame was deformed, but it could still be used if it was bent in the opposite direction. This was a good thing in the misfortune, or else they would have to really "expose" their camp.
He didn't lose anything else.
The elves curiously looked at the bear-proof spray. They didn't expect that such a small guy could scare away a huge monster.
When Richard heard that the black bear had retreated, he shamelessly took all the credit.
"Kaka! If you want to talk about power, I'm still the more powerful one. I was just pretending to be weak, my body shook, and my domineering aura leaked out. I defeated the black bear with a pool of yellow urine ..."
OWW!
Before it could finish, another bear's roar came from the distance. It was the direction the black bear had fled.
"Oh my God!"
Richard was so scared that he flapped his wings and flew away, but he hit the branches and fell into the dead leaves on the ground, rolling his eyes.
Zhang Zian and the herd of deers were also staring in that direction, but judging from the sound, the black bear had run quite far.
"Zian, the black bear's roar was filled with anger. It must be holding a grudge after being defeated. Will it come back for revenge?" Old time tea asked worriedly.
Zhang Zian wasn't sure about this, but he encouraged everyone,""There's nothing to be afraid of. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. So what if it has a grudge? If we drive it away once, we can drive it away a second time, and a third time!"
He said this with great confidence. The bear-proof spray could be said to be the bear's nemesis, unless the black bear could launch a surprise attack. However, with the elves around, the black bear could not approach quietly without being discovered.
This can of bear-proof spray could be sprayed a dozen times without any problem, and it was enough to last until they safely left the forest.
The elves felt that it made sense and were relieved. They had seen the black bear's violence and ferocity with their own eyes. Even if they were proud by nature, they would not want to fight a black bear head-on. It would not be worth it if they were injured.
"That girl named melgen, could she have encountered a bear?" Old time tea asked again.
If she had disappeared because she had encountered a black bear, then she might have already lost her life.
"It's hard to say, but even so, it doesn't explain why Mike never returned. Mike has been living on the edge of this forest for a long time. He knows the forest and the Black Bears. He is also a veteran who has been on the battlefield. He shouldn't have disappeared at this time. " Zhang Zian said.
Theory was only theory. No one could be sure of what actually happened. Maybe melgen had indeed met with a black bear or some other ferocious beast and died. Mike had come to look for her, but he only found her body. In a fit of rage, he decided to take revenge for her, so he took the initiative to attack the black bear. However, he was also killed. This was possible. When a person was impulsive, they could do anything stupid.
It was not far from daybreak after he was done with the torture. He could not sleep even if he wanted to. He decided to prepare breakfast early and set off early after eating to continue tracking Mike's smell.
