Chapter 353: Rejecting dog fighting, self-driving tour in the 1990s
There are two types of dog fighting.
One is to let dogs race, just like horse racing, but it is much lower-end than horse racing. It can be played by ordinary people, by nouveau riche, and by anyone who owns a dog.
The other way is to let dogs fight. This is not something ordinary people play. You have to be able to train dogs and raise dogs, and you have to be able to lose, because this way of playing is very harmful to the dog. If you accidentally get killed, Dogs were bitten to death everywhere.
Since there are no restrictions on dog breeds in dog fighting competitions, and most of them are fierce dogs that are brave and good at fighting. When such dogs meet the same kind, they will be like enemies. Once they meet, they will immediately rush to bite them. A life or death.
In short, whether you are running or fighting, no matter which way you play, there is a problem involved.
That is, in the end, the unification will fall on the gambling dogs.
Betting on dogs is the same as betting on horses.
Bet on the dog you are optimistic about to win or lose.
In fact, dog fighting was not something people played in the first place.
There was a conflict between the two villages in the past, and they settled the conflict by winning or losing a dog fight.
It is also a means of resolving conflicts.
Later evolved into a folk game.
Some people specially raise some large dogs, fierce and fierce dogs to participate in dog fighting competitions.
As for Yu Bangjin, he also wants to play with dogs, but the dog he keeps is too useless. The dog he bought cannot be raised and lacks fighting spirit.
That's why I came to Chen Ling to buy a dog.
It is said that a thin dog he took a fancy to and bet on has won five consecutive greyhound races.
Thin dogs are good at running. This kind of dog is also a fierce dog and can be used for hunting on plains and grasslands.
But dog racing is not as exciting as dog fighting.
He still wants to raise a fighting dog of his own and kill everyone in the dog fighting ring. Only then would he feel happy.
After listening to what he said, Chen Ling also knew what this dog fighting was about.
In fact, he has heard of the game of dog fighting before. It was a long time ago.
However, after the Internet developed, dog fighting competitions caused too much controversy because of their bloody nature.
Dog fighting is gradually disappearing in front of people, and it is more of a dog racing. The competition is which dog can run faster, or chase the rabbit in the shortest time. The game is about speed, so that the dog is not hurt and the scene will be more harmonious.
If you want to experience a more passionate and exciting game between two dogs, you have to go to the countryside in remote areas or abroad to experience this kind of game.
If it was just a simple dog race, a race and some fun, Chen Ling would be fine.
But dog fighting is about letting dogs fight with each other for no reason, for fun and to win money, and in the end the dogs are injured or killed for no reason.
Chen Ling still disagrees.
And after hearing this, he made it clear to the two of them that he would not gamble with the dog.
If Yu Bangjin came to buy dogs for dog fighting, he would not sell the next litter of puppies if they were available for takeout.
The puppies bred at home are sold and then fight to death with other dogs for fun.
Chen Ling felt uncomfortable when she thought about it.
“I can’t control other people’s dogs. The dogs I raise myself have put in my efforts and have feelings. I won’t let them do that kind of thing, and I won’t sell puppies to that kind of people. "
"Don't be angry, brother, I'll punish myself with a drink..."
When Yu Bangjin heard that Chen Ling said that he would not sell him any dogs in the future, he quickly picked up the tea and punished himself with a drink. .
I was afraid of being on Chen Ling's blacklist.
Sun Yanhong has spoken about this young man’s temper.
Said that this young man had always had a bad impression of her. He wanted to come to the farm to buy something as a gift, but he always tried to trick her.
In order to ease the relationship and make this friend, Sun Yanhong said she gritted her teeth and admitted it.
Yu Bangjin also knew what kind of character Chen Ling was.
He heard that Chen Ling liked to take dogs hunting, and thought that if the young man was full of blood and mentioned dog fighting to him, he would be very interested. When the time came, he would bring him over to play, and he could use this to build a relationship.
Who knew Chen Ling was unhappy.
If it comes, he will still not take it seriously.
He’s just a young man with a bad temper. Can’t you teach him how to be a good person if you give him more money?
But after coming to the farm, he didn't dare to think so.
It wasn't that he wanted to bow down to Chen Ling and be groveling.
The key is that when Zhou Yu hits Huang Gai, one is willing to hit and the other is willing to suffer.
Whoever let him see these dogs in Chen Ling's family, he fell in love with them so much that he even named the puppies in the future.
I’m really afraid that Chen Ling won’t sell his pup in the future.
Sun Yanhong also said: "Lao Yu just loves to play and join in the fun. He usually bets on other people's dogs, and he loses more and wins less. His own dog is so useless. , there was a big guy in the room, and I wanted to bring him to the field, but he didn’t even enter the field, so he was so scared that he fell down on the bed. He was so cowardly that other dogs didn’t hurt him, but I’ve never hurt a dog before..."
"But the more he behaves like this, the more addicted he becomes. He always thinks about raising a vicious dog to kill everyone, otherwise others will always laugh at him."
"Yes, it's strange to say, my dog It’s useless to raise a dog, brother, you know how to train dogs, do you know what’s going on?”
When Yu Bangjin mentioned this, his face was dark and he was very worried.
After asking the question, he added: "Brother, I am a straightforward person, and I won't hide it from you. In fact, I originally thought that I would borrow your dog to play with the puppies because I didn't buy them. The key to showing off on the court is that the dog I raised is too cowardly, and I don’t want people to laugh at me all the time for being a cowardly dog.
But I didn’t expect this dog to hold such weight in your heart. It’s so serious, it’s definitely my fault.”
Although this Yubang Jin man is small, he is also honest.
At least he is more candid than Sun Yanhong.
Chen Ling's face softened a lot after hearing this, and said: "It's not a matter of weight or not. You will know after I tell you two things..."
Then he said: Heiwa Xiaojin talked about how he protected his family and caught thieves and tried his best to protect his master.
When Yu Bangjin heard this, he was in awe, and then he realized why people were upset when they heard about dog fighting.
If he had such a loyal dog, he would not be willing to let the dog fight life and death for people's entertainment.
Let’s not talk about cruelty or not. It would be very unconscionable to gamble with a dog that is loyal to its owner.
For a moment, he was ashamed and envious at the same time and said: "Grandma, what you said, brother, made me even more greedy. If I didn't know from what you said that your dog is vicious, I would have all Come here to steal the dog's heart."
Chen Ling immediately laughed and said that as long as he didn't take the dog to fool around with, he could still keep one of the second-generation wolf dogs for him in the next litter.
Yu Bangjin was so happy that he promised again and again.
In the end, maybe because he didn't bring any gifts, and because he wanted to make friends with Chen Ling, he said he heard that the wine at the farm was good, so he just bought a few jars of wine.
The warm relationship between the two made Sun Yanhong envious.
When I left, I complained: "You guys just get to know each other quickly, Fugui, we have known each other for several years, but you rarely give me a good face, and I send you money every now and then." Yes, don’t you know how it feels to take care of old customers?”
Chen Ling turned around and went back, too lazy to pay attention to her.
I have so many small thoughts, who can I blame?
On the other hand, Yu Bangjin, who got into the car, smiled and looked at Sun Yanhong's deflated look with amusement.
"This brother is so kind. No matter how much money you have, people will ignore you if they want to."
"Humph, you old man, I counted on you in vain."
Chen Ling didn't know what the two were talking about him, so he picked out the ornamental fish that night and put them into the plastic bucket prepared years ago.
This plastic bucket is very strong and is used for cooking oil and bulk wine.
The white one has a handle and a lid.
Put the fish in, screw on the lid, mix it with spiritual water and take it to the city, but the fish will not die.
After loading the two buckets of fish, Chen Ling fixed the buckets on the iron racks on both sides of the back of the motorcycle without eating breakfast the next morning, and then took Heiwa Xiaojin and Erhei with him. Three dogs were riding motorcycles towards Tiannan City.
This time is to let the two dogs see the outside world.
By the way, exercise Erhei's courage.
Yu Bangjin is right when he says that it would be a pity not to take such a good dog out to see the world.
What about the other thing.
Puppies like Erhei have never experienced any battles with their own kind. Even if they encounter local dogs in the village, they are mainly just fighting, unlike Heiwa, who had fought earlier. , when they were this big, they had already killed two big hunting dogs.
Although Chen Ling would not let his dog participate in any dog fighting competition. But you really don’t breed good dogs in a greenhouse.
But it’s time to take him out for a long run. He will see many dogs along the way and feel more courageous.
This little kid still has to practice his courage one by one.
Let’s start with the smart and fierce Erhei.
The sky is clear, the wind is gentle, and it is a brilliant spring.
Chen Ling left the county town and took a detour to Kuliu County. After coming out of Kuliu County, as soon as the motorcycle got on the road, he increased the accelerator to the full limit.
The motorcycle was speeding, and Chen Ling's spring shirt was fluttering and making a hunting sound.
The three dogs gradually let go of their speed next to the motorcycle and ran wildly.
In fact, from birth to now, due to the restrictions of the terrain and environment, the two Hei babies have never really let go of speed and run long distances.
Even when fighting wolves in the village, it was at a short burst of speed.
But now they let go, following the motorcycle, but it was enough fun and they were running happily.
The two dogs ran faster and faster, like galloping horses, one yellow and one black, like two whirlwinds passing in front and back, the speed was extremely amazing.
It attracted people and vehicles passing by to look over in surprise, their eyes tracking the three shadows next to the motorcycle.
Later, even the motorcycles gradually couldn’t catch up with them.
Chen Ling had no choice but to slow down and let Erhei, who was tired from running, jump on the motorcycle and continue to chase them.
Er Hei was young after all. After running for two counties, he started running again. After running for a long time, his legs became weak from exhaustion.
And Heiwa and Xiaojin have just finished warming up and stretching their muscles, and the gap is not even a little bit different.
"Hahaha, it's just fun to come out, right? You don't have to go to the dog fighting ring to compete, it's enough fun, right?"
When they arrived at a bridge, Chen Ling The motorcycle was parked by the river, and the three dogs took a rest. After the rest, they drank water and fed them.
Erhei is still a bit unsettled.
Heiwa and Xiaojin acted as if nothing had happened. They were in high spirits and did not feel tired at all. They just stuck out their tongues and gasped. They barked excitedly around Chen Ling and went to him happily. Pounce and lick his face.
It can be seen that I am really happy to run.
"It's a pity that there is no live broadcast at this time. Otherwise, if we had a live broadcast, it would be like taking the dog on a self-driving trip. There must be many people who like you."
Chen Ling stroked the heads of the three dogs, then washed his hands and ate by the river. Facing the bright sunshine of early spring, he took a short rest and then set off again with three dogs and one person.
As for the fish in the two buckets, he had already put them into the cave.
From Lingyun to Tiannan, riding a motorcycle is neither more comfortable nor faster than a car.
The main reason is that the road is not good, and the car is relatively stable and appears to be fast.
When motorcycles encounter difficult roads, they have to take a detour or get off and push them.
For the car, it takes a day to set off at dawn, and you can reach the city by driving fast until dark.
With a motorcycle, you can’t make it in one day.
But Chen Ling didn't mind, arriving a day late was exactly what he wanted.
He just likes this feeling of wandering on the road.
Running all the way with your dog on a motorcycle, this comfortable and bohemian feeling is addictive.
Maybe it was the dream of traveling around the world with a sword when I was young.
If his family hadn't allowed him to ride a horse, he wouldn't have even ridden a motorcycle and would have been riding all the way to the city.
I thought: "In the future, when my children are older, I will definitely take my wife and children on a trip across the country. I can't chop firewood, feed horses, and travel around the world. I can let horses and dogs walk around the country. Not too much.”
Isn’t it possible to take a quick trip in life?
......
Soon, the sun set, leaving only a golden-red afterglow like salted egg yolk, and the day passed quietly.
Along the way, Chen Ling took the dog with him. When he was happy, he would speed up and take a rest when he was tired.
Erhei lacks endurance and spends most of his time on a motorcycle.
Heiwa Xiaojin followed the motorcycle for a day.
This is the first time they have traveled so far. They are proud of the spring breeze and their hooves are so fast that they take long steps and run very fast.
Sometimes when passing through counties, towns, and villages along the way, we will also encounter vicious dogs chasing us.
This is the time for Erhei to attack.
Chen Ling specially brought it out to train it. Heiwa was not allowed to stand alone, and Erhei was specially asked to deal with it.
Most of these dogs only use Erhei to jump down and roar for a while to scare them away.
Some dogs are very timid when they go to strange places. Instead, they are so intimidated by the dogs in strange places that they dare not come forward and huddle up.
Fortunately, Erhei performed very well.
I also encountered some bandits blocking the road. Chen Ling rushed over with his dog if he could pass. But if he couldn't, some people would beat him up when they saw him rushing through.
This kind of Chen Ling stopped, opened up his posture, and fought with them with one person and three dogs.
Then break the villain's legs and leave gracefully, so that he will not come back to cause harm in the future.
In addition to these, Chen Ling’s biggest feeling on the road was that there were suddenly more people going out to work this year.
On the road, I kept seeing tractors pulling a car of people, mostly young and strong, to the bus station and train station.
He stopped and asked, most of them were acquaintances going to developed cities on the southeast coast.
Just like in previous years, he mostly works as a porter and works on construction sites.
In 1992, 1997, and 2001, a large number of migrant workers entered the city.
There are indeed many people going out to work this year, and there are also many young people in the village who have said they want to go out for a while.
The times are moving forward unstoppably.
Chen Ling is still as stable as a mountain. In his previous life, he followed the tide of the times and crossed the sea. He was also deceived and abducted. He was plucked when he was successful. Now he has no feeling for that kind of life.
Seeing that the sun was setting, I bought a roast chicken in a nearby town, cut two kilograms of yellow beef, drank a large bowl of wine, and ate the meat in large chunks.
After drinking and eating, I went to the boss to buy some sewer and other things to feed the dogs, and then left again.
At night, I stopped my motorcycle by the river outside the town, lit up a bonfire, blew the night wind, and looked at the starry sky as clear as glass, one person and three dogs slowly fell asleep.
No need to ask where this trip is, the moon is setting in Jiangcun and it’s time to sleep.
After sleeping until about three o'clock in the night, Chen Ling became full of energy, his heart was racing, and he could no longer sleep.
The three dogs were also in high spirits and exhausted. After sensing their master's thoughts, they climbed up, barked, and couldn't wait to get on the road.
At this time, a full moon hangs high in the sky, and the bright moonlight shines on the ground, like a light white frost.
Pouring on the river, the waves are sparkling, like yarn and mist.
Such a beautiful night cannot be left to waste.
"Haha, good, you are indeed the dog I raised."
Seeing the excitement of the three dogs, Chen Ling praised him, put the things that had been spent on the ground into the cave, and stepped on motorcycle.
Taking advantage of the beautiful moonlight, one person and three dogs continued their journey.
The road near here was newly built last winter and is relatively easy to walk. No one is rushing there late at night. Chen Ling lets go of the speed and walks forward. The moonlight and night wind are in his arms. Feeling comfortable, he can't help but sing aloud. Song, the three dogs also barked excitedly.
Speeding all the way, over mountains and rivers, at eight o'clock in the morning, we finally arrived at the foot of Tiannan City, the small county town where Shanmao's family is located.
When Chen Ling brought the dog to the door, the Shanmao family thought he had arrived in the city yesterday.
When I asked, I was surprised to learn that he came overnight.
Shanmao's mother went back to the house and muttered to her wife: "No wonder this Xiao Chen has such a good relationship with the third child in our family. This character is really carved from the same mold."
Isn't it? They are all so bohemian. Love freedom.
Lynx and Dujuan said nothing. After serving him breakfast, they smiled and asked him how he felt about traveling at night.
Chen Ling said it was very enjoyable and she wanted to do it again when she went back.
