The horse team was skeptical at first, but they saw that the other party was really professional and grasped the key points right away. They chased along the hillside to the mountain ridge, with Daniu leading the way, holding a big iron stick, Li Shaoling following behind with a big spray gun, and Captain Ma following in the middle.

Liu Xialian asked: "Captain Ma, I saw in the document that there were more than a dozen witnesses, so did anyone shoot the leopard?"

Captain Ma shook his head and said, "No, this leopard is very cunning. The attackers were unarmed. The closest witness was ten meters away. That person said that this leopard was very big, like a tiger. It grabbed the man in one bite, bit the back of the neck and carried him away. It was very fast, just like a person grabbing a chicken."

Liu Xia Lian nodded and stopped talking.

The group walked for five or six miles when a stream blocked their way. Da Huang searched back and forth, but lost the scent and had no choice but to come back and act coquettishly to Liu Xia Lian.

Liu Xia Lian took some dried meat and fed a piece of meat to Da Huang and the three hounds respectively.

The Saker Falcon in the sky let out a loud cry, caught a snake, and started eating it while standing on the treetop.

When Captain Ma saw that the hunting dogs had lost their scent and the Saker Falcon had not found its target, he wanted to laugh, but he held back.

Because of this, he was scolded by his leader. Two hundred people searched the mountain for three days but found nothing.

Liu Xialian arranged: "Everyone take a break, don't worry."

Everyone took out their food and started eating. Seeing that there was no result for a while, Ma Tui said, "I'm going back to the forest first. If you need any help, remember to call me."

"Okay, the cavalry will go back and arrange for the forestry workers to pay attention to safety and not act alone. The leopard is still in this mountain."

The cavalry went back, and now Liu Xia Lian and others were responsible for capturing the golden leopard. His responsibility was to defend the Erdaohe Forest Farm and reduce unnecessary casualties.

As soon as Captain Ma left, Li Hu pointed to the pine forest in front and said, "Sister, we found a big one. It looks like it will last for thirty or forty years."

"Hu Zi is amazing. He found the old mountain ginseng." Li Shaoling praised.

Liu Xia Lian came over to take a look. It was a medium to lower quality product, but still very good and could easily cost over a thousand yuan.

"Just use a big hoe to dig, don't dig too carefully, we are in a hurry."

Daya and Li Hu took big hoes and started digging, making a crackling sound. As long as they were not afraid of damaging the ginseng, they dug quite quickly. In just over ten minutes, a fresh ginseng weighing four or five taels was dug out.

Liu Xialian praised: "Li Hu did a great job. Everyone stay for a while. If you come across old ginseng, you should dig it. Hunting is just a side job, digging ginseng is the main job."

With Li Daniu and Li Shaoling on duty, there won't be any problem. This leopard is a smart one and won't risk attacking anyone with a weapon.

After crossing the stream, Liu Xia Lian found the trace of the leopard again effortlessly. She called Da Huang and the two big black dogs over, and the three hounds cooperated with each other and continued searching along the footprints.

Li Daniu was very happy and followed the hound closely with a No. 12 shotgun in his hand.

Daya carried a large hunting rifle on her back, held a shield in her left hand and a mace in her right hand, and followed Li Daniu.

The Saker Falcon sometimes flew into the air, and sometimes landed on Liu Xialian's shoulder to rest. Erya followed Liu Xialian. Li Hu, Li Shaoling, and Liu Fuhong stood close together, forming a triangle. They walked and muttered, "I heard that this is how you move in the rainforest. There are pythons on the trees, leopards, and traps in the bushes everywhere. The environment here is much better. At least there is no miasma."

Suddenly Dahua came back and hid behind Liu Xialian. The hound Dahuang and his two younger brothers roared in alarm. Everyone took their weapons and quietly moved forward. There was a dense bush in front of them that was impossible to see through.

This is why thousands of people searched the mountains but couldn't find the clouded leopard, because the forests are too dense and some places are not places for humans to go at all, so it is normal that they can't find it.

Liu Xialian said: "Don't be nervous, this is a wild boar."

As he was speaking, a huge wild boar weighing about 300 pounds rushed out from the bushes. It had long fangs and its butt seemed to be injured. It was furious and would pick on anyone it saw.

Li Daniu was not in a hurry at all. He shot the wild boar in the head. Boom! The No. 12 shotgun shell was extremely powerful. The charging wild boar was hit in the head. It fell to the ground with a muffled groan, and its limbs kept shaking.

Liu Xia Lian shouted, "Don't worry about this wild boar. Keep searching forward. The leopard should be just ahead."

The bushes ahead were too dense, so the bull wielded a heavy iron bar weighing dozens of kilograms to smash a path and advance quickly. The Saker Falcon happily took off into the air, and soon made a loud cry.

Li Daniu roared, "I see." He immediately pounced forward with his hunting rifle in hand, running very fast with his two long legs. The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. Dahuang and the other three hunting dogs knew that they were no match for their opponent and did not fight head-on. Instead, they retreated to make way for the gunfire.

Boom! Liu Xia Lian fired a shot with her rifle and easily hit the target at a distance of about 100 meters.

Li Daniu fired two shots, and the leopard's body was full of bullet holes. It fell to the ground bleeding and died, never to get up again.

After catching up, Da Niu picked up the iron rod and hit the leopard twice, flattening its head.

Li Hu laughed and said, "No matter how powerful you talk, it won't work. We can kill them with a beating."

Liu Xia Lian came up to check it out. This leopard was really big, weighing at least 200 kilograms. It was like a small tiger, very majestic.

"It's not this one, it's just an ordinary leopard." Liu Xia Lian shook her head.

Arya said, "That would be a mistake, what a pity."

"It's not a loss. This creature has eaten humans before. It's fine to kill it. It and the leopard should be brothers. They grew up together and were originally at about the same level. For some reason, the leopard ate something and got a chance to evolve into a vicious beast with intelligence."

Everyone was confused after hearing this and didn't know what was going on. Could it be that this leopard had become a spirit? How could it be so smart?

Everyone continued searching and found the leopard's den in the bushes, with clothes inside.

Liu Xia Lian waved her hand and called the Saker Falcon down. She took a pen and wrote a note, sealed it with a reed tube, and hung it around the Saker Falcon's ankle.

"Go and give it to Captain Ma."

This Saker Falcon had a basic level of intelligence, almost as smart as a Border Collie. It flapped its wings and flew high. After a while, the Saker Falcon came back.

Li Shaoling asked: "So soon, he delivered it?"

"Of course, it has been delivered. The speed of the Saker Falcon is 200 to 300 miles per hour. This is only a few kilometers, so it will only take a short while."

Sure enough, not long after, a squad of armed police came over with a cavalry unit, each holding five or six half-guns.

Seeing the wild boar and leopard on the ground, he was very surprised: "Captain Liu, have you caught them?"

Liu Xialian shook her head: "No, this leopard was driven out by the leopard and became a scapegoat. The leopard is still in the forest. You should transport the wild boar and the leopard away."

Captain Ma was stunned when he heard this. Wild beasts are always wild beasts. What kind of leopard would be so smart as to drive its own kind out to die? It was really terrifying.

"Okay, then we'll go back first. Please be careful."

After that, Captain Ma waved his hand, carried the wild boar and the golden leopard and returned. Liu Xialian didn't have to worry about them stealing the credit. The 750th Bureau was a special department with terrifying power. No one had the courage to do that.

The group continued searching forward, and it was obvious that the leopard had not gone far. It had hidden itself in the nearby bushes.
