Chapter 336 Catching Deer, Shanlizi Tactics
Having money in the account at the end of the year is an unexpected surprise.
Chen Ling pulled Wang Susu to be gentle that night and continued to fight for the great cause of having a second child.
In the past two years, Wang Susu has become more and more sophisticated.
Under the nourishment of cave heaven spiritual things, the body and bones are getting better and better.
But her healthy body does not affect her slim figure and frost-like skin.
Although her figure is much plumper, she is still the pitiful little daughter-in-law.
Chen Ling also felt that his daughter-in-law was becoming more and more beautiful and energetic, especially her watery eyes, which seemed to be able to talk when she looked at her.
Many women in the village also said that even if they were wrapped up tightly, they could tell by looking at these beautiful big eyes that it was Su Su.
Chen Ling naturally loved her more and more.
Half the night is full of pleasure.
As the old saying goes, sleep is sufficient if you have enough energy and blood. The young couple has a much healthier body than ordinary people, and they are greedy for pleasure but not sleepy.
I woke up early at around five o'clock in the morning.
But Ruirui is still asleep. When he wakes up, he wants to play in bed for a while.
So Chen Ling got dressed and came out.
There have been a lot of deer sightings outside the farm these two days.
I don’t know what kind of deer left it behind.
Remembering that from the beginning of spring to now this year, apart from the big red-haired muntjac, I have never eaten any other venison.
Chen Ling felt itchy and prepared to decorate a few gadgets to catch a few deer.
Find a wooden board that is two to three inches thick and more than one foot square.
A round hole the size of a deer's hoof was dug out in the middle.
Use three-inch iron nails to drive them diagonally.
This thing is called "grabbing feet".
As the name suggests, it is used to catch deer feet.
It is also a trap for catching deer.
After the scratching feet are made, dig up the soil in areas with dense deer tracks without damaging the turf, dig out a shallow pit underneath, and put the grabbing feet into it.
The other end of the board protrudes from the bottom of the ground and is tied to the trunk with a rope.
After tying, put the shoveled land back as it is.
Wait for the deer to come over and step on it, and its hooves will sink into the pit.
I tried to pull it up, but the iron nail was pierced into the flesh above the hoof shell.
Even if I drag the claws to the ground, it will be fine.
The wooden board is big enough.
Tie the chain again.
It can't run away.
This method of hunting deer was taught to him by an old hunter from Kinmen Village.
It was common in the past, but not many people do it now.
There are also ways to catch muntjacs and foxes.
Everyone has their own methods and techniques, and it is not as simple as simply placing a clip or a condom.
It just so happened that Chen Ling discovered deer tracks around the farm in the past two days. Seeing that he was eager to hunt, he rushed out early and placed them at several locations at the foot of the mountain.
Sprinkle some bait nearby.
Just wait for a deer to step on you.
Then turn around and go home to make breakfast.
Since the father-in-law and his father-in-law returned to Fenglei Town, whoever he and Wang Susu were free would do the cooking.
The availability depends on whom my son spends more time with that day.
"Today I will have yam porridge with cabbage stewed with tofu. Pickled cabbage is not good." Chen Ling was thinking as he walked to the kitchen. After eating sauerkraut for so long, he almost forgot about cabbage. It tastes good.
This year’s Chinese cabbage, my father-in-law helped deliver it to the vegetable cellar when he left.
Although the vegetable cellar of the farm is very big, and two tanks of sauerkraut have been pickled, the vegetable cellar is filled to the brim with just the remaining cabbage.
This is the problem with the high yield of Chen Ling’s cabbage.
His vegetable cellar on the farm is right behind the kitchen, and there are always piles of firewood and sundries next to it.
The sweet potato well and the vegetable cellar are not far away.
Anyway, these two local traditional characteristics have everything they should have, and they are very complete.
But when he walked to the vegetable cellar and prepared to pick up the vegetables, Chen Ling was dumbfounded.
Then he turned around and shouted angrily: "Hei Wa, how do you look after the house? The vegetable cellar has been ruined by thieves."
Hearing Chen Ling shout angrily, Hei Wa He ran over in a hurry.
I saw a big hole in the straw mat covering the vegetable cellar, and there were half-eaten Chinese cabbage beside the vegetable cellar.
Seeing Hei Wa coming towards him with frowning eyes and wagging tail, Chen Ling became furious, slapped him and said, "Don't be the one who is stealing from me."
These days Every night after dinner, Xiao Jin and Xiao Bai Niu would go back to the village to look after the house.
Hei Wa keeps the farm alone.
Originally, Chen Ling thought there would be no problem. These two guys could detect any slight disturbance.
It has been like this since they were young. Any sound from far away can make them prick up their ears.
Hei Wa was slapped by Chen Ling and felt quite aggrieved. He simply sniffed the ground and then started barking and circling around him.
It means it has found the culprit.
“Let’s go, take me to see what kind of thing has come in and dares to harm the vegetable cellar at home.”
Er Baldy is not at home very much these days, and goes out for a walk from time to time. , Chen Ling never restricted its freedom, and always encouraged it to find a companion and give birth to a litter of eaglets as soon as possible.
Otherwise, there will definitely be no fish that slips through the net and gets into the farm.
It was still very early at this time, barely seven o'clock.
Chen Ling followed Hei Wa to the outside of the farm and followed the culprit.
After following the trail, the scene he saw made him stunned again, and he stopped at the edge of the orchard.
Even Hei Wa stopped in his tracks.
On the wheat field in the early morning, there were dozens of magpies, fighting fiercely around a fat, grass-yellow cat.
The magpies chirped, flew up and down, some pecked, some caught, beating the big fat cat until it shrunk its head, hunched up, covered with hair, and kept making sharp howls, but There were too many magpies, and it couldn't resist and could only be beaten passively.
Chen Ling saw clearly that this was the same mountain raccoon that escaped before. He didn't know if he had caught the magpie before or something, but now he was attacked by the magpie.
He has seen magpies attacking other birds.
For example, my own kite and magpie are old enemies. After all, they are all birds, so it is understandable that they fight with each other.
But it is a bit rare for a magpie to beat a cat.
"I haven't seen this scene before, so don't teach it a lesson yet. Heiwa, go home and get my camera."
Chen Ling said to Heiwa quietly, and then Squatting on the edge of the orchard, quietly watching the land and air battle.
It was said to be a battle between land and air, but in reality Shanlizi was beaten.
Han Ninggui once said that magpies are a bit of a gangster. If you offend one of them, they will attract friends and surround you.
Very vindictive.
There are many magpies on the farm. Chen Ling squatted here and counted them carefully. There were probably close to forty magpies besieging Shan Lizi.
It’s really cruel.
In fact, not only magpies, but also birds belonging to the Corvidae family are not easy to mess with.
Soon, Heiwa snatched the camera over, and Chen Ling quickly seized the opportunity to take a few photos.
Then he chuckled and said: "This guy, the way the thieving cat was beaten is no different from when Heiwa was beaten by the geese last year."
Heiwa was lying next to him, As soon as he heard this, he immediately raised his head and looked at him with wide eyes.
But when Chen Ling turned around and looked at it, it quickly and honestly stuck out its tongue, looked at the group of magpies and mountain raccoons fiercely, and pretended to be ready at any time. Fighting look.
At this time, Wang Susu found Heiwa holding a camera in his mouth, and followed him out with the child in his arms in confusion.
I saw a man and a dog squatting by the edge of the orchard. I didn’t know what they were looking at, so I came over and asked what was going on.
Chen Ling quickly asked her to squat down and said, "Come and watch the show. This morning I saw that the reed mat on our vegetable cellar had a hole in it. There was also half a cabbage eaten, and the leaves were almost empty. Just call Heiwa out to chase.
Look, that mountain lizard is getting beaten by magpies for what he did. The thick coat he just changed into in winter will definitely not be able to keep it. It is worse than last year’s Heiwa. It’s even worse.”
Wang Susu was surprised when she saw it. She had never seen this battle between a magpie and a mountain raccoon, and she was instantly attracted to it.
The young couple watched with relish.
I saw that the mountain fox was fighting and retreating under the siege of a large group of magpies, but the magpies were chasing after it, flying up and down constantly, pecking away at the mountain fox, so they kept Large pieces of cat hair flew out.
On the surface, it seems that this mountain raccoon has been beaten all the time and has no strength to fight back.
But Chen Ling soon discovered something was wrong.
The direction in which the mountain raccoon retreats is exactly its den, which is the direction of the ditch under the gentle slope.
Sure enough, after a while, he was a few meters away from the ditch.
This fat, straw-yellow cat suddenly burst out, revealing its ferocious side. It actually killed a magpie in the midst of lightning and flint. The group of magpies had always had the upper hand, and they did not expect the mountain fox at all. Zi Hui couldn't react to this move at all.
I could only watch helplessly. After Shan Lizi killed his companions, he picked them up in his mouth and slipped into the tall wormwood bushes.
“Holy shit, this Shanlizi can also fight back tactically.”
Chen Ling and Wang Susu looked at each other with deep surprise on their faces.
Then I saw the group of magpies chirping angrily and lingering around the ditch, as if they were scolding in front of Shanlizi's house.
Chen Ling laughed again when he saw this: "It's useless to know tactics. If you offend these vengeful gangsters like Magpie, you won't be able to go out during the day again."
After Wang Susu read Qiqi, she became more concerned about the situation at home. Then she asked: "This mountain raccoon came into our farm. In addition to eating cabbage, did he eat anything else?"
Chen Ling heard this. He slapped his forehead and shouted: "Let's go, let's go back and have a look. I was busy chasing him out and forgot to look at the kitchen."
After that, he walked back first.
I rushed back to the kitchen and took a look, my dear, what a mess.
The eggs and steamed buns left over from last night, as well as the braised rabbit meat left over from yesterday’s lunch, were all destroyed.
The plates, bowls, and chopsticks fell all over the floor.
Wang Susu felt even more distressed when she saw the mess on the ground. She stuffed her son into the stroller, and the couple quickly cleaned it up.
After cleaning up the kitchen, the two of them were still wondering: "What's going on with the mountain civet? They just ate cabbage, half a cucumber, and even finished the steamed buns."
The young couple don’t know.
There are many birds around the farm, and there are also many raccoons that make their homes around here. With so many competitors, it will be very difficult to find prey.
Besides, Chen Ling and the others had gone around catching rabbits with portable lights at night before, taking away prey that were easier to catch, and scaring the rabbits so much that they didn't dare to show up.
The mountain raccoons can't find anything to eat, so they naturally suffer from cold and hunger. When they are extremely hungry, they have to think of other ways.
In the past, these mountain raccoons were afraid of Heiwa and the others and did not dare to approach the farm, but after they were so hungry, they no longer cared about that.
All kinds of things in the farm are of good quality and very attractive.
So when this mountain raccoon was very hungry, he sneaked into the farm to find something to eat.
I walked in early in the morning and after eating the cabbage in fear, I found that the dog was not moving, so I went into the kitchen to look for other food.
Fortunately, the eggs and meat at home are stored in other rooms and locked.
Otherwise, the mouse really fell into the rice vat and would have suffered heavy losses.
As for Heiwa, he has also relaxed his guard and only guards the chickens, ducks and sheep outside. In the past, the mountain civet always sneaked in and out of the orchard, and he usually didn't care.
If Xiao Jin were here, it would probably be a different story.
After dinner, he called Xiao Jin back from the village and brought the little white cow over.
The sun is shining today, although it is still not too warm, but there is no wind, so it is rare to go out and do some activities.
When I went to pick up the mountain civet, I found that it had moved its position under the nose of the magpie at some point. There was nothing in the hole, and the two dogs were not found.
Depressed, Chen Ling went to the cave to ravage the two half-grown mountain raccoons.
If you don’t catch the big one, you’ll find your way back to the small one.
"Humph, let's wait a few days and settle the accounts with you again."
The fourth daughter of the Xian family is getting married. Chen Ling is going there tomorrow, so naturally he is not in the mood to fight with these wild things. .
But you can pick up a little female cat from the village and put it into the cave.
The two half-grown mountain civets in Dongtian are male. Let's put a female cat in and let them develop feelings and give birth to cubs.
There is no reproductive isolation between mountain civets and domestic cats, so there is no problem in having children at will.
After all, pet cats, pet dogs, and scalpers are the main development direction of our farm in the future.
Of course, what he hopes most for is cattle. As long as they are bred, Japanese Wagyu will also have to stand aside.
“We will also do some work on these big animals such as cows, horses and donkeys in the spring next year. We can raise two or three of them at will. By the end of the year, we will kill them and eat them to see how the meat tastes.”< br>
“After all, if you think it tastes good, it will be easier for others to accept it.”
Under the lazy winter sun, Chen Ling lay on the grass slope and squinted in thought, Xiao Bai The cows were lying not far behind him, and the sheep were grazing everywhere on the grassy slope: "Well, we haven't raised those yet, so don't worry about it now. Let's try the taste of the sheep that have been raised for more than a year in two days." .”
After he made this decision, before the sheep had time to eat, he was startled by the barking of dogs that night.
A deer stepped on it and clawed at its feet.
