My 1995 Small Farm - Chapter 346

  Chapter 346 Shantan’s “gift” [Bow to thank the “Water from the Four Sides” boss for the monthly red envelope]

   In the slightly cold night wind, the desolate hooting of owls came from far away from time to time.

Under the faint moonlight, a group of lively puppies surrounded the two motorcycles pushed out from the fruit forest trail, shaking their tails, jumping up and down, humming and barking, obviously knowing that they were going to take them out for hunting again. very excited.

   “What should I do? Just sit on it?”

   Zhou Weijun watched Chen Ling and the two push out the motorcycle and asked, “How about I just walk down there and watch?”

   He hadn’t seen him drive a motorcycle to hunt in the crops, so he was a little afraid to sit on it.

   “Don’t, just sit behind me, run a lap first, and then come down after a lap. Otherwise, you won’t be able to keep up with us if you walk down there.”

  Chen Ling patted the back seat of the motorcycle, “Don’t worry, it’s very stable, sit on it.”

   Having said that, I straddled myself first.

  Han Chuang also straddled and smiled at him: “Don’t worry, Lingzi’s skills are very strong.”

   Zhou Weijun stepped on it tremblingly and sat up.

   asked again: “Don’t people in your village blame you for driving a motorcycle in a wheat field?”

   “Ah? This, ah, this is all right now. It has no effect on the wheat. If it takes a while, after the wheat is up and jointed, you can’t go in and ride the bike and step on it.”

  Chen Ling said, unscrewed the motorcycle, the sound of the engine sounded, and the bright headlights instantly emitted a blazing white light, shining out.

  Han Chuang followed him and started the motorcycle. Two strong beams of light dispelled the darkness. Amidst the strong light and the sound of the engine, a group of puppies barked excitedly.

  Han Chuang has been coming to Chen Ling’s side a lot recently. The two of them are always running mountains, playing dog hunting, etc. He rides his brother’s big motorcycle, which is full of horsepower.

   At this moment, Chen Ling whistled, pointed forward, and said, “Go.”

   A group of lively puppies jumped out suddenly, looking left and right with the lights while running, looking for prey.

  Chen Ling and the two slowly started the motorcycle, and the lights shot in two directions.

   “Old Zhou, hold on tight, we’re going to the ground.”

  Chen Ling greeted and drove along the edge of the ditch into the wheat field. The headlights flickered, and a few small black shadows flashed past the lights. Then came the harsh whistle of the kettle when the water was boiling.

“what is that.”

   Watching the puppies barking and rushing away, Zhou Weijun also came to the spirit and hurriedly asked.

   “It’s a bunch of wild quails.”

  Chen Ling narrowed his eyes and saw the target clearly: “It’s getting warmer, the wild quail is back.”

   “Quail? Do quails fly too?”

   Zhou Weijun was stunned for a moment, he just followed the light of the headlights but saw those black shadows flying up.

   “Of course it can fly. This thing comes from winter to spring, especially when migrating. It can fly very high.” Chen Ling said.

The   quail thing is also like a migratory bird. When the weather is cold, several quail flocks will gather into a large group and migrate to the south of the Yangtze River.

   Like geese and cranes, they like to move in the middle of the night.

   However, except when migrating, they generally rarely fly so high, and in groups of three or five either flee in the grass on the ground, or fly low against the ground.

   This is the case now.

   No, the puppies in front of them had already captured him while they were talking.

  When there were no small prey such as mice and rabbits, Chen Ling often trained them to catch birds, and now he has caught a few quails, of course.

   “So fast, I caught it.” Lao Zhou was a little stunned. He thought that even if he was proficient in hunting, there would be a process.

As soon as Chen Ling turned the gas pedal, he drove towards the place where the puppy caught the quail, and said, “What’s so difficult about this, the dog from Chuangzi’s house has followed us out a few times, and now he is also a good rabbit, if you don’t believe me, ask him .”

   Zhou Weijun turned to look at Han Chuang.

  Han Chuang smiled honestly and talked to him about going out to hunt around the county town during the first month of the month.

   Zhou Weijun didn’t like this, but after hearing what they said, he was a little envious.

   He felt that between the two of them talking, there was a feeling of walking around the world with swords, very unrestrained, and his heart gradually became hot.

   “Unfortunately, this spring quail is not fat.”

Chen Ling stopped the motorcycle, grabbed a quail that the puppy had brought over, and looked at it. The puppy who were asking for merit reached out and touched their heads, and then waved his hand to let them grab the quail they caught. Forget it.

  The quail after winter is so thin that it is not too rare to take it back to eat.

   The one he grabbed in his hand, he handed it back: “Old Zhou, you can play with this one.”

“Okay.” Zhou Weijun had been staring at the quail for a long time. Seeing this, he hurriedly caught it. Then, his face was full of joy. He held it in his arms as if he was holding a chick. Hahaha.

   Then one of his hands didn’t hold tightly, and with a “swoosh”, the quail flew away.

   The Iron Man was stunned with a “ouch”.

   Fortunately, the dog quickly jumped up again and pounced on the ground.

   This is also the time before, the puppies did not kill the quail, they are now more and more able to grasp their strength, and they have learned to play their prey slowly.

   So let this quail slowly relax.

   “It’s embarrassing to ride on a horse, even if you catch a bird in your hand and let it fly.” Zhou Weijun was annoyed, thinking that he wasn’t drunk, why is his hand unstable.

  Chen Ling and the two laughed and said that it was all right, and they would catch him a rabbit later.

   As I said, there is a small group of black shadows towering over the slope, and it is not obvious from the side of the light.

   However, because they are not far away, the puppies’ keen ears and sense of smell are not covered. Even if there is no need to illuminate the light to assist, they can find the prey in time, and immediately rush up the **** with barking barking.

   The three people were attracted, the front of the car turned, and under the lights, a hare was running wildly on the panicked slope.

   It’s fast.

   But today it should be unlucky.

   was chased and blocked by ten ferocious puppies, and he was really powerless.

   Finally, tired of running, he lay directly in the withered and yellow grass, letting the naughty and ferocious puppy fiddle with it, bite it, and was too lazy to resist.

  The puppies laughed for a while, feeling bored, and the rabbit ran back to the motorcycle.

   But Zhou Weiguo was very interested in the process, and only then did he realize Chen Ling’s daily fun.

   This guy is really funny.

   It seems like a good time to come here for a few days in my spare time every year.

   “Old Zhou, take the rabbit, go back and kill Xun Shang, and let you taste our roast rabbit tomorrow.”

   Chen Ling’s words made Zhou Weijun almost drool.

   immediately grabbed the rabbit’s ear and hurriedly asked, “Did the puppy bite to death this time, don’t run away.”

   “Dead, dead thoroughly. Sit tight, let’s take a detour to the south, there are less wild things here, and there are more in Laohewan.”

   Recently, I have been hunting a lot in the fields near the farm and on the west side of the village. Because the farm has a lot of good things, it is too provocative for wild animals, and a large number of people gather.

   But since Chen Ling trained this bunch of puppies, it stopped a lot.

   was driven to Laohewan and near the reservoir, where there are more birds and small beasts.

   It is close to the river, so the puppies are not easy to chase.

   They have a great chance of escaping.

  …

Facing the night wind, Chen Ling and the three of them were driving their motorcycles around the old river bay in the south of the village and the reservoir in the east of the village. flutter quail…

   By the reservoir, the sparrows all hit a bunch of them.

   Many villagers who had not slept heard the sound of the motorcycle and knew that Chen Ling was out hunting again.

  Many young people also joined in the fun, shouting out the dog from home, surrounded by motorcycles, and swept the village for a while.

The    team was huge, and everyone was lively and happy, especially when they were chasing prey in the wheat fields, they ran and yelled, and they ran wildly in the dark with their dogs, and their emotions were very high.

   Zhou Weijun came back after running around, gasping for breath with his hips on his shoulders, his face full of excitement: “You guys are too funny.”

   For some reason, after he came to Chen Ling, he felt a deep sense of integration and substitution. When the puppies rushed out just now, he saw how the villagers were playing, and he rushed out without saying a word.

  How to say that feeling, it feels like letting me fly, very refreshing, very hearty.

   This night was really enjoyable.

   At the same time, it was also a very rewarding night.

   On the way back, in addition to the wild animals fed to the puppies, there were many pheasants and rabbits left.

   Zhou Weijun suddenly said worriedly: “Brother, if you catch it like this, will you catch all these wild things?”

   “Finished? That won’t work.

   We won’t say anything else, just say that pheasants and rabbits are born quickly.

   One night a year ago, I once caught twenty-seven or eight pheasants in one place. It was a huge flock. I brought them all home at one time, and not a single one was released…

   But do you see them less now? No.

  The same goes for hares. Like wild boars, both of them belong to the big family of superbirths. If they are caught for a while, it will have no effect at all.

  We mountain people also follow the rules. We don’t hunt in summer and autumn, and when wild things multiply, they won’t hurt them. “

  Chen Ling’s words are true. In later generations, many places in his hometown returned farmland to forest, and moved to fallow.

   At that time, there were no natural enemies in the mountains, and Chunchun became a breeding and production base for wild boars, pheasants and rabbits.

  Especially after people did not dare to hunt for fear of being punished, it even worsened.

   And now.

   The water source of his own farm nourishes the land in all directions, and the nearby wild animals will not be slow to reproduce.

   So he never worries.

   “Oh, so you guys still have this rule.”

   “Yeah, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, and relying on the water to drink water, you can’t eat all the mountains and rivers, right?”

   The three of them were driving motorcycles and chatting all the way. The lights illuminated the dirt road in front of them, and there were puppies huddled together on both sides of the road, running and playing.

   Just like this, we hurried back to the farm.

   After returning, they didn’t delay anything. The three of them went hunting for a little while, and after drinking a lot, they went to the farm to skin the prey.

   Gotta smoke the rabbit tonight.

   The three of them were busy working with high spirits, and suddenly they heard the panicked shouts of two women outside.

   “What’s wrong? What’s wrong?” Chen Ling hurried out.

   “It’s alright, there is a wild cat coming to steal its mouth and eat, it should be a raccoon, and it is very big, which startled us…”

  Wang Susu hugged his son and gestured with lingering fears, “It should be the one from years ago, the grass-yellow, thief’s eyes glowed green.”

   “What’s the matter, Xiaoqing, are you and sister-in-law okay?” Han Chuang also hurried to the front, and behind him was Zhou Weijun who was stunned.

   After knowing what happened, Han Chuang and Zhou Weijun were stunned.

   Zhou Weijun is unknown.

  Han Chuang was surprised: “How does such a big raccoon grow?”

  Chen Ling twitched the corners of his mouth: “Oh, that thief cat, I’ve dealt with it a few times, and it’s purely fat. In winter, it’s round and round, and it must have been stealing other people’s things.”

   asked Wang Susu again: “What did the thief cat steal from us to eat?”

   “I didn’t see it clearly. When our dog chased out, it ran away with something in the fence.”

   It’s close to the mountain, but that’s not good. It’s easy to attract wild animals at night. You still have to keep more dogs and take precautions.

   Especially when it comes to flying and climbing trees.

  When Erbaldy is not at home, it is difficult to do it.

   At this time, after a few of them finished speaking, Zhou Weijun asked suspiciously, “Brother, what is this raccoon you’re talking about?”

   “It’s a wild cat. It’s much bigger than a domestic cat. It should belong to a leopard cat. Anyway, there are several kinds. There are grass yellow and leopard prints. There is a place in the north called it Shihuzi.”

  Chen Ling explained one sentence, and then carefully told him some of the powerful points of the raccoon.

   Hearing Zhou Weijun stunned, he said that there are so many interesting things in this mountain.

   Several people were talking, and the group of dogs rushed back. Xiaojin still had a small thing in his mouth and put it in front of Chen Ling and Wang Susu.

  When everyone saw it, it turned out to be a striped cat.

   “Isn’t the one who stole something a big fat cat? Why did you catch a kitten and come back?”

   Hearing everyone’s questions, Chen Ling pulled the little cat and took a look.

This little cat is about two months old. It has black and yellow patterns, but there are not many patterns. It is similar to the two little male cats Chen Ling’s income in Dongtian. It is a kind of golden red and black patterns. The grass-yellow hair of the raccoon is much more beautiful with brown-red markings.

  Xiaojin will not bring the kitten back for no reason, it must have something to do with the raccoon.

  Damn, this big thief cat is slippery, is the cat mature?

   Several times, he ran away under the siege of such a powerful dog group in his own house, and he could only capture his children and come back for comfort.

   is really exhilarating.
