My 1995 Small Farm

   It is necessary to detour from the back mountain to Lake Yamanaka.

   It must pass through the maple forest where egrets nest.

  Chen Ling also joked with Shanmao that if these rogue birds dare to provoke them, let Ah Fu and Ah Shou go up and catch two, and let's eat meat first.

   But after walking near the maple forest, I found that there were no egrets flying down to attack them.

  Only the little egrets were quacking in the nest, and from time to time they pouted their bald buttocks that had not fully grown their fur and **** outside the nest.

   "Oh, yes, I forgot that, they must have flown out to find food for the birds."

  Chen Ling looked up.

  Bobcat looked around and said, "There is a cry down the hillside, probably by the lake."

   Sure enough, when we walked to Yamanaka Lake, a large group of egrets were looking for food here, quacking from time to time.

   But the most striking thing is not this group of egrets.

  It is a red-crowned crane walking gracefully.

   At this time, the sun just rose, and the red-crowned cranes stretched their feathers on the beach, taking the little red-crowned cranes for a walk.

  These little fluffy things are no different from the two little red-crowned cranes that Chen Ling took home.

  Like those little goose seedlings in the village, behind the big red-crowned crane, they ran around the ground happily, pecking food by themselves, and going to the lake to drink water.

   Very happy.

   "Wow, these little cranes are fun too."

  Wang Zhenzhen lifted his straw hat and jumped up excitedly.

Chen Ling just wanted her to stop shouting, but it was too late. At this moment, a big male crane turned around abruptly, with its folded wings slightly opening a gap, staring straight at them. He rushed over at any time in a desperate posture, and issued a rattling warning in his mouth.

   "Shout what to say, if you are disobedient, I won't take you out next time."

  Chen Ling glared at her.

  Wang Zhenzhen immediately covered his mouth, not daring to say anything.

  Ah Fu and A Shou also shrank their necks, walking cautiously, as quiet as a cat.

  Bobcat was surprised by this for a moment, then wanted to laugh, and felt that it was inappropriate.

  Seeing the defensive appearance of the big red-crowned crane, he whispered to Chen Ling: "Let's let the little crane out first, and see if they still recognize it."

   "It should be recognized. When we first took the eggs back, they were still chasing the Zhuangzi, flying above it every day."

   As Chen Ling said, he opened the cage and released the two little red-crowned cranes.

  The first thing these two little guys saw when they broke out of their shells was a human, but that didn’t bother them at all. They often followed ducks and geese to forage for food in the farm, so they weren’t so clingy.

   is not inseparable from people.

   Now when it is released, it first chirped and circled back and forth on the ground a few times.

   Seeing this, Chen Ling squatted down and oriented them so that they both looked towards the big red-crowned crane.

  The two little cranes got used to it with the ducks and geese.

   They are not afraid to see such big birds, they are all much bigger than themselves anyway, they are all giants.

  So he ran over happily shouting and shouting.

  A few big red-crowned cranes just watched the two little cranes running over quietly, with no special reaction except a little curiosity.

  It was the original little cranes, seeing these two running over, rushed over impatiently one by one, jumped on their heels and fought with them.

   But what is surprising is that the two little cranes raised in the farm are extremely resistant to beating.

  Four hit two of them and did not fight them back.

  Of course they are also quite stupid, they don't know how to fight back, they just follow the other four **** with a sly face, wherever they go, they also follow them with tweets.

  The big red-crowned cranes turned their heads one by one, looked left and right at these young birds, and seemed a little confused.

   At this time, Chen Ling and the others were still not at ease.

   sat nearby and looked at them for a while.

   These red-crowned cranes are not very afraid of people, but after what happened last time, they are not willing to get close to people.

  He took the little cranes away from them with strides.

   Along the lake, they not only find food for themselves, but also feed the little cranes.

  When feeding, the original little crane and the new two little ones would still fight with each other, and the big red-crowned crane would go over and kindly persuade them to leave when they saw it.

   Seeing this scene, Chen Ling gradually felt relieved.

   "Okay, the release was successful."

  Chen Ling stood up with a smile, and waved to the red-crowned cranes: "Welcome to lay eggs again next year, help break the shells, and we will provide free delivery."

   "Brother Bobcat, what nonsense is my brother-in-law talking about?"

   "Hahaha, your brother-in-law is a forest ranger, who specializes in this..."

   "Brother Shanmao is right, I'm in charge of this. Let's go, take Ah Fu and Ah Shou to manage a big super-born family in the mountains."

   With a wave of his hand, Chen Ling was about to cross the bamboo forest and head towards Xishan.

  While observing the red-crowned crane just now, he was also checking the footprints of various wild animals and wild animals nearby.

  I found that there are at least five kinds of deer activities by the lake, grass deer, sika deer, barking deer, etc. are mixed. The direction is to continue to the west mountain from here.

  From early autumn to early autumn, all kinds of fruits are fragrant in the mountains and forests.

  After passing through the bamboo forest on the south bank of Lake Yamanaka, in the dense forest on the west mountain, the sounds of birds and beasts in the early morning began to become clearer.

  In the past two years, there are mountains on the south, north, and west sides of the village, and there are still more wild animals and wild animals in the South Mountain and West Mountain.

  When going down the mountain, most of them go down from the south mountain and the west mountain.

  The main reason is that the slopes of Nanshan and Xishan are relatively gentle.

   Beishan is relatively steep.

  In addition, the mountain outside Beishan is now the back mountain of Chen Ling's family, and there are dog groups moving around every day to divide the territory.

  Generally speaking, there are very few things that come and go from Beishan, let alone come down from Beishan.

  Unless the mountain donkey escaped the jackals and had nowhere to go, it would panic and run to the farm.

  Even though the number of wild animals in the mountains has increased sharply this year, and various deer, foxes, badgers and other small wild animals appear frequently, there are very few traces of them in Beishan.

   Few if any, or high on mountain tops.

   Unlike Xishan and Nanshan, if you just go up the mountain to cut firewood, pick some wild fruits, you may encounter foxes with cubs, or deer.

   "kuang—"

   "kuang—"

  In the morning, wisps of sunlight shone in the forest.

   A strange crash sounded near the mulberry forest in the West Mountain.

  Ah Fu and Ah Shou flapped his ears, turned his head suddenly, stared round his eyes, then slowly lowered his body, stopped lightly and slowly, and stared straight in that direction.

   "Hush."

  Chen Ling also hurriedly told Shanmao and Wang Zhenzhen to be careful.

   Then he took out half of the antler and pointed to it, indicating that there might be a deer over there.

   Bobcat made a gesture to show that he knew.

  Wang Zhenzhen also hurriedly covered his mouth, but his eyes were full of excitement.

  She likes deer so much, she is afraid that when she sees it later, she can't help shouting happily, scaring the deer away.

  After all, my brother-in-law told her when I came here just now, these deer, their eyes are not so sharp, but their sense of hearing and smell are extremely keen, and they will run away quickly if there is any trouble.

   Sure enough.

   After they approached quietly, they saw two big bucks with beautiful antlers on a spacious and flat grassland at the edge of the mulberry forest, fighting against the antlers, panting heavily and angrily.

  Beside two stags.

   is a large herd of doe.

  They are either grazing on their own, or flicking their short tails happily. Some are standing, some are lying down, quietly watching the excitement.

  Wang Zhenzhen gently pushed aside the bushes to take a look, his excited eyes lit up, and he pointed his mouth silently and said, "There are actually sika deer fighting."

  Chen Ling and Shanmao both smiled and nodded.

   This is no coincidence.

   It doesn’t mean that they meet when they come, but others don’t.

   But once there are more deer in the mountains.

  In this season, something that happens almost every day.

   Bucks fighting each other is not uncommon.

   Same as wild boar.

  Sika deer is also mostly doe clusters, and the doe takes her cubs.

  During the year, male deer live alone most of the time, and return to the herd when mating.

  In this season, it is almost the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and the female deer gradually begins to estrus, and their scent will waft out, which will attract male deer to gather in herds and compete for mates for mating.

   Furthermore, male deer will fight for the right to mate like male wild boars.

   "kuang—"

   "kuang—"

  Two big bucks were fighting fiercely, fighting inextricably.

   At this time, Chen Ling suddenly stood up and shouted: "I'm not right, I almost forgot that we brought tigers to hunt, and we are so careful, how can we have fun?

  Ah Fu Ah Shou, serve it directly to me. "

   His roar made the whole deer herd tremble with fright, and the does even took a look here before running away.

  The two stags were already angry at this time.

   Hearing the human voice, he was still in place, and was stunned for a moment.

   It is at this moment.

  Two colorful tigers jumped out from Chen Ling's side, and they all said downhill tiger, downhill tiger, this tiger's aura is extraordinary.

  Once you get serious, even a tiger that just came out of the zoo can't match the aura of ordinary beasts in the mountains.

   While running, the domineering side leaked, with a majesty of the king.

   The two stags were frightened silly.

   Originally, Chen Ling and the two tigers were more than 30 meters away from the deer herd.

   At this time, after the two tigers jumped out, they covered more than 20 meters in the blink of an eye. Only then did the two stags react, screamed, turned and fled.

   Ah Fu and Ah Shou let out a tiger roar, and persevered in chasing the deer.

   "Go, catch up."

  Chen Ling swung the shotgun vigorously, and then rushed over.

   Bobcats and Wang Zhenzhen followed closely behind.

  Wang Zhenzhen doesn’t look at people as small, but he grew up on the mountain in Fenglei Town, how could he be afraid to run on the mountain?

   Now he lifted his straw hat and ran fast with his braids, like a scud.

   After chasing through the mulberry forest, seeing that Ah Fu and Ah Shou were about to chase the herd of deer, he was so excited that he followed behind them and shouted.

  It turned out that when the sika deer fled, they didn't run away in all directions, and flew separately when the disaster was imminent, they ran in groups.

  Even the two big bucks that hadn’t joined the herd followed the herd when they fled.

  In the mountains and forests, with such a large herd of deer fleeing in such a panic, the speed must not be as fast as fleeing separately.

   This caused them to be chased by A Fu A Shou before they escaped from the mountain.

   I saw two tigers jumping and jumping, and the bushes and grass in the forest couldn't stop them at all, and they were passed by their tall bodies.

  And they are much larger than these sika deer.

  Two yellow figures are like a strong wind.

   It easily surpassed the stature of these sika deer.

  A Shou stretched out his front paws, threw himself on a doe's buttocks, and rolled her down to the ground.

   With one bite, the doe's buttocks were 'flattened' down.

  The doe knelt on her front legs, struggling to get up and run away, but she couldn't break free, screaming in panic.

At the same time, Ah Fu did not lag behind at all. He chased up from the side of the deer and bit the neck of a big buck without even rolling over. He directly pulled the neck with his mouth and pushed the big buck to the ground with one paw. .

  The big buck screamed and kicked its four legs helplessly.

   But it was worse than the doe, its neck was bitten off by Ah Fu, and soon it couldn't even move its legs, and it died directly.

   "Okay, nice job!"

   Seeing this, Chen Ling and Shanmao applauded loudly and applauded.

  Wang Zhenzhen ran over like a gust of wind, and asked eagerly, "Did Ah Fu and Ah Shou catch the deer?"

   "There is no fawn, and I have not conceived a fawn this season."

  Chen Ling smiled and touched his sister-in-law's head: "Don't worry, I will definitely catch two for you in the next year, one for you, one for Ruirui."

   Then he and the bobcat stepped forward to check the prey situation.

  Ah Fu and Ah Shou saw Chen Ling approaching, grabbed the prey, and dragged it to him in small steps.

  Bobcat laughed when he saw it: "Haha, look at this little Shou, he is eager to claim credit, this doe is not dead yet."

   Ah Shou came here biting the doe's buttocks, and the doe's buttocks had been bitten by Ah Shou at the moment, and it was screaming non-stop.

   "Bite here, kill it quickly, and give it a good time."

  Chen Ling couldn't hear the miserable cry, so he pointed at the deer's neck and asked Ah Shou to bite it.

  Ah Shou immediately rushed forward, grabbed the doe's neck, and swallowed it down. The deer's neck was bent, and the dead could not die again.

  Bobcat squatted down and took a look, "They are two old deer, and the male deer is not young."

   Chen Ling nodded, not surprised.

  The wolves, tigers and leopards in the mountains kill the old, weak, sick and disabled.

   Their physical strength declines and they cannot escape the pursuit of predators.

   "Brother-in-law, I gave you a knife, it's time to worship the land."

  Wang Zhenzhen took out the hunting knife and reminded.

  Bobcat smiled unexpectedly when he saw it: "Good guy, you really have everything you need, and you want to learn hunting from your brother-in-law?"

   "Of course, I catch snakes with my father at home."

   "Crazy girl, the more you talk, the more energetic you are."

  Chen Ling flicked her head, and said to Shanmao: "Don't worship the land master, tigers are tigers, and they hunt deer. They eat by themselves, so they don't have to follow our rules."

   Shanmao was taken aback for a moment, and then understood what Chen Ling meant. Ah Fu and Ah Shou were probably going to be raised in the mountains in the future.

  For a moment, I was both envious and full of enthusiasm. Taking the tiger to patrol the mountains and hunting with the tiger, this forest ranger is really a wife and prestige.

   After Chen Ling finished speaking, he squatted down and cut up the meat with a knife to feed the tiger.

  At the same time, teach Ah Fu how to eat living things, how to eat, and where to eat more easily. (end of this chapter)
