Two small boats, one in front and one in back, headed towards that mysterious hunting ground.
On Lin Yu'an's support boat, Little Eagle sat at the bow, holding binoculars, his sharp eyes scanning every tree line and mudflat on both sides of the river, full of the expectations of a young hunter.
However, the reality of hunting was far more brutal and tedious than planned.
On the first day, they achieved nothing except seeing a few does drinking at the riverbank.
In the evening, back at the temporary camp, Little Eagle was still excitedly discussing the size and fur of the does with Lin Yu'an.
On the second day, they paddled upstream, deep into an unmarked tributary on the map.
Barton, using his experience, discovered some willow branches that had been nibbled by moose. He disembarked, snapped a branch, and showed the jagged break to Lin Yu'an and Little Eagle.
