"Go back and ask Second Uncle Zhang, didn't he catch a gray fox when he was young? Ask him what kind of trap he used to catch it."

"That's right, the trap for catching red foxes is definitely not like hares and pheasants. It seems that the blood of a big cock is needed? The three-year-old kind, it is said that red foxes like this kind of cock blood the most, and they will become stupid when they smell it , grab it and catch it."

"If I have a few thousand gold, I will buy a big house and a lot of land. I want to be a master."

"Marry a few more wives, right? You put expensive powder on your face, it's for nothing, haha."

"Yes, but I have to marry Osmanthus first..."

"Osmanthus fragrans likes Daniel, not you, Wang Erlang."

"If I have money, Osmanthus will like me..."

Lin Bei was very happy when he heard it. These days are still very interesting.

Cui's Alan did not participate, but nodded to Lin Bei: "Thank you, my lord."

Lin Bei was baffled, it wasn't him that Osmanthus liked, so thank him for what he did.

When the hunters heard this, they all expressed their thanks unanimously. They kept saying thank you, sir, as if Lin Bei had really done something great. Finally, Lin Bei finally figured it out. Maybe it was Xie himself who led them to Bird Valley and let them see the red fox. After all, red foxes are very valuable. As long as they are caught, their lives will immediately change from poor to rich peasants. This is the seed of hope.

With gratitude and hope, the hunters and Lin Bei returned to Longtan, and then Lin Bei asked the hunters to plant the vines.

The hunters are really good at work, and now they are even more diligent. Under Lin Bei's command and Cui's Alan's translation, grape vines were planted on both sides of Longtan, with a few on each side.

"Use rocks to lift up the mud around the roots." Lin Bei instructed: "Water again."

In this way, the grape roots can form a flowerpot-like appearance, which can retain water. Of course, this is only the early stage. When the grape vines grow roots again and go deep into the ground, these stones can be removed. At that time, the grape vines Also fixed.

Hutou and Jiulang took five people outside to cut branches, the bigger the better, and Lin Bei wanted to make a grape trellis.

Whether the grapes can grow well or not, apart from sunlight and water, space is also very important. It is not enough to squeeze them all together. The big locust tree on the Longtan is a natural grape shelf, but what Lin Bei pulls back are old grape vines , so the locust tree looks small as a shelf, and Lin Bei has to build a place big enough at one time, so as not to do it again.

When Hutou and the others came back, Lin Bei climbed onto the locust tree by himself, and put the cut branches on the locust tree according to mechanics. These branches will be firmly adsorbed.

This project is not big, but it is very thoughtful. In some places, Lin Bei had to pull out small trees and put them under them as supports. He worked until the sunset on the western mountain, which was about eight o'clock in the evening. This huge grape trellis was considered a construction. It's done.

Starting from the locust tree in Longtan, there are shelves all around. In addition, some branches were built around the downstream stream, covering the stream for about [-] meters. Because the vines were dragged back, the leaves and fruits of the grapes were almost gone. , bare, but it doesn’t matter, the grapes grow fast, there is plenty of water here, and the sunshine is good. It will take less than a month for the grape leaves to grow again, and then it will be full of greenery.

Lin Bei first went to the back mountain to get a few pheasants, let Cui's Alan do it first, and then lay down under the grape trellis to look at the fruits of his labor happily. This kind of happiness of adding bricks and tiles is what Lin Bei likes the most. For example, Lin Bei used to observe the trees, seeing the trees sprouting and slowly growing leaves, that kind of satisfaction is really good.

"My lord, do you like grapes? This kind of mountain grape is small and sour, very astringent, very unpalatable."

Lin Bei opened his mouth wide, but in Orion's eyes, he didn't think it was scary. He should be happy. Lin Beixin said that you don't know this. Grapes are not only edible, they can also be made into wine, and the more gamey they are The wine made from wild grapes is the best. Lin Bei is not talented, and he just knows how to make wine. He wants to make wine to drink by himself, and transform into a python. If he doesn't find something for himself, wouldn't it be Very boring.

Chapter 34 spawning ground

That night, the vicinity of Longtan was still calm, but a small incident happened in the lower reaches of the small river.

late at night.

The moon this night was big and round, like a disk, and the moonlight shone on the forest, which looked very beautiful, but the downstream of the small river was not like that.

The river flowing from the spring of Longtan is winding, and some river sections are relatively wide. There is a section of the river about [-] miles away from Longtan. Because the terrain in front is higher, the river water in this section is relatively fast. Below the river section, due to the year-round scouring of the river, a long section of alluvial plain is formed, that is, silt. The silt accumulates here, and reed grass grows on it. Although it is autumn, these reeds are not in a state of withering. , unusually energetic.

This section of mud and sand is usually a paradise for many birds, because there are quite a lot of small fish and shrimps here, and there are also many bugs in the mud and sand. Birds build their nests here. If they are attacked by wild animals, they will fly to The sky dodges, and now the birds are flying to the sky, because the place has been taken over by wild boars.

The wild boars like this kind of place the most. There are mud and sand, and the arching is quite refreshing. Occasionally, small crabs or tender stalks of reeds can be arched out of the sand, which is delicious food. They don’t care about those little birds.

The entire muddy water section is extremely messy due to the presence of wild boars. They are not environmentalists. When the wild boars are happily arching, the water in the small river starts to move.

The pond formed by the river here is actually not small, and it is not much different from Longtan, and the animals will not notice that there is a big hole beside it. At this time, something came out of the big hole and stirred up the water. .

First, it sticks out a head, which is the head of a tortoise, but this head looks very big and gray-white. Then the big tortoise slammed the hole very hard, and it seemed that its strength was quite terrifying. It got bigger and bigger, and then the whole body squeezed out and fell into the pond. The turtle was so big that the river seemed to rise a little.

The whole body of this giant tortoise is gray and white, even its shell is the same, and its limbs are also extremely thick. The diameter of the tortoise shell is at least more than one meter. If Lin Bei is here, he will be surprised. This should be a giant tortoise named tortoise .

The tortoise is the name of later generations. It was probably in 600 A.D., that is, before Wanli of the Ming Dynasty. The Spaniards discovered this huge tortoise on an isolated island, because the limbs were thick and strong, and they were relatively large. The limbs of an elephant are so called tortoises.

Why are tortoises so big?Scientists have guessed, and it is more reliable that the tortoises on the isolated island at that time had no natural enemies, and the food was abundant, so they grew up carefree. Of course, the time for this growth may take dozens of generations or It has evolved continuously for thousands of years, but what is certain is that the size of the tortoise was quite large a long time ago. The Three Kingdoms period was only [-] years away from the Ming Dynasty, and the size of the tortoise will naturally not be small. .

After the giant tortoise appeared, another tortoise appeared in that hole one after another, as if there was no end to it, and these tortoises were actually very big, and the smallest shell was more than half a meter long. It's full.

Naturally, this kind of movement cannot be concealed from the wild boars feeding there, but these stupid guys just took a look and then turned their eyes away, because they are already familiar with this kind of big guy, and they will appear once every few years, but It's not the food of the wild boars, so the wild boars don't care.

But the wild boars didn't care, but the tortoises seemed a little angry. After they got together, they headed towards the mud and sand, looking like they were going to have a big fight with the wild boars. The tortoises will bury their eggs in the sand in the selected spawning ground, and the sand is only found in this section of the small river.

The number of the tortoises may have exceeded one hundred, and the tortoises gathered and crawled together in such a mighty way that the wild boars seemed a little frightened, and they backed away screaming.

A wild boar that seemed to have just grown up, lowered its head and headed towards a tortoise. The strength of the wild boar was very strong. The tortoise retracted its head into its shell. Back off half a point, because similarly, tortoises also have great strength.

Giant tortoises are definitely the strongest among turtles. They can even carry two or three adults on their backs and crawl nonchalantly. Although they lack attack means, when they want to defend themselves, there will be almost no land on the ground except elephants. Creatures can push them back.

The tortoises crawled onto the muddy beach one by one, but the wild boars had nothing to do about it. They could only retreat step by step, giving the muddy beach to the big guys. Afterwards, there was a loud howl from the wild boars , and then the wild boars backed away slowly, they were about to leave.

At two or three o'clock in the morning, it was very late at this time, and the mud beach was covered with a layer of veil of moonlight.

Without any delay, the giant tortoises began to use their hind limbs to dig up the sand and prepare to lay eggs here. They came from a long distance, and it is purely a tradition to lay eggs here. Every few years, There will be several groups of tortoises, but as time goes by, the number of tortoises will be less and less. If the old man has time to watch here, he will know that after a while, the tortoises will lay eggs in this area. Because the number of young turtles that can be born alive here is too small, sometimes until the little turtles hatch, there is not even a single turtle egg that is kept intact, because there are too many animals in the forest, from laying eggs By the time the eggs hatch, the animals in the forest have eaten all the eggs.

The birds standing on the branches stopped singing, and they were all staring at the group of big tortoises, with the sharp light of finding food in their eyes. When the group of tortoises left, many birds would fly down , dig the sand, peck the turtle eggs inside, they are the first batch to enjoy this delicious meal, and then mice, snakes, foxes, and even wild boars will come one after another, and they will spend the winter and hibernate They desperately need food energy.

At five o'clock in the morning, the moon began to slide down from the open sky, and the tortoises had almost finished laying their eggs. These tortoises lay huge eggs, and they can lay more than 100 eggs at a time, each of which is only smaller than a ping pong ball One nest is definitely not enough, so they often dig several nests, and then the mother tortoise carefully covers the nests with sand. They have done everything they can, but this is obviously useless.

After laying eggs, the tortoises began to leave, and the last tortoise sank into the hole in the pond, which would be sealed off by the silt brought by the river.

The river has not yet returned to calm, and countless birds have flown down from the sandy beach, and they have begun to use their claws to dig up the sand, and their sharp long beaks to peck at the shells of turtle eggs, and these birds have no eating etiquette at all. , they tend to peck several turtle eggs, but only eat a small amount of egg liquid.

Squeaking sounds also came from all directions. This is the cry of mice. The forest is full of mountain mice. The smell of egg liquid makes them go crazy. They start to compete with the birds for this rare meal. Some mountain mice They are even very clever. They will push the whole turtle egg away from the original place. If you are lucky, you can push it to their burrow. Mice have to survive the winter these days.

As the sky grew brighter, some early-rising beasts began to drink water in the river. A group of red deer ran leisurely on the muddy beach. The turtle egg nests in the muddy beach were once again destroyed. This is not the end, only the last The luckiest eggs survive the hatch, but is this the end of the disaster?Of course not, even if they are lucky to be born, they still have to accept the test of nature, they need this small river to live independently until they grow to a certain size, and then they can leave, and during this time, fewer and fewer people can leave alive, until There was none, and when the old tortoises died slowly, this spawning ground would cease to exist, because no tortoises could still remember this place.

ps: Thank you again for the reward, Brother Seven Emotions and Six Desires. In addition, I also thank the Lord of the Undead, brother **u for your generosity. This means that more and more friends like this book, and I am very happy.

Chapter 35 The Sensation in Xishan Township

The next day, the hunters left Longtan early in the morning, preparing to return, but Lin Bei did not send them off this time.

By the time the hunters came to the edge of Mount Fu, it was almost noon, and the weather was still violent today.

The moment Cui's Alan walked out of the forest, he said solemnly: "Don't think I'm annoying, we have to keep the matter of adults a secret, don't tell anyone."

All the hunters agreed, and this has been said by Alan Cui several times, and every time they leave the mountain after entering the mountain, Alan Cui has to ask him once.

After Jiu Lang agreed, he said again: "Alan, we definitely won't talk about adult matters, but now every time we go into the mountain, we get a lot of harvest, and many boys ask around, wanting to know where we hunted, such as the giant bear last time. , and the wild boar you brought back that time, the people in the village are already suspicious, if you bring the Ganoderma lucidum back this time, those people must be extremely jealous, we have to think of an explanation."

When Jiulang said this, several hunters nearby also said: "Yes, Alan, my mother-in-law asked me the same way, and I don't know what to say."
