My 1995 Small Farm.

Chapter 420 The Power of Boy's Urine
Having had a great time during the day, but also feeling tired, Zhao Dahai's family returned to the farm and didn't let Chen Ling do much. They simply prepared the doves, fish, and shrimp, ate a delicious meal, and then rested.

……

At dawn, in the Sun and Moon Grotto.

Yesterday's thunderstorms have stopped. Before the sun rose this morning, mist rose in the vast, ancient forest, where ancient trees stood tall and sprawling.

A large lake surrounded by dense forest, its wide surface shrouded in a thin mist...

The rising white mist, ethereal and dreamlike, created an atmosphere reminiscent of a fairyland on earth.

Chen Ling came in early in the morning not only to see what changes had occurred to the lightning-struck tree that remained in the forest, but also to see if any rare mushrooms or fungi would grow in this cave after the rain, now that the sun, moon, and the four seasons had arrived.

This thing grows extremely fast in the outside world, let alone inside the cave.

If they existed, they would definitely grow into a large patch.

Unfortunately, he went around in circles and didn't find anything.

We dug up quite a few bamboo shoots and some wild vegetables, which were lush and green, making our mouths water.

It's enough to feed two people.

"Hmm, these Qinling Drunken Plum trees are also growing quite well. Like the Phoenix Eye Wild Jujube, with a little improvement, they could rival the fruits and vegetables of Western Xinjiang if planted elsewhere..."

Chen Ling lingered along the way, stopping frequently to admire the magnificent and enchanting scenery of the cave after the rain. Whenever he saw a fruit, he would pick one, wipe it clean, and take a couple of bites.

Many fruits and flowers change their flavor with the changing sun, moon, and seasons.

It has become richer and more layered.

Compared to other fruits, they all tend to grow larger. After thunderstorms and strong winds, peaches that have fallen to the ground are as big as a head.

It's so big and ripe that it's hard to keep it on the tree.

Of course, it's not appropriate to take it out.

Other fruits and melons are the same; they grow bigger and bigger, and although they taste great, they can't be taken out.

"Is the only ultimate fate of these fruits and melons to become wine? How about making another kind of peach wine? Or a mixed fruit wine?"

"It's a bit of a waste to use all these delicious fruits to make wine."

After leaving the cave, Chen Ling was still thinking that apart from the fruits and vegetables in the cave, the wild fruits in the mountains and his own orchard, there was no good way out now.

The fruits and melons in the cave were all of high quality, and he didn't intend to sell them in large quantities. He just felt it was a pity that he couldn't share them with his relatives and friends.

The situation is different in the outside world.

Influenced by the farm, the wild fruits in the nearby mountains are growing better and better, but they are wasted and rotting in the mountains...

Even someone like Chen Ling, who doesn't like to worry unnecessarily, often feels sorry for him.

Lost in thought, he walked downstairs. Several hens led a flock of ducklings and goslings to him, chirping and pecking at the ground. Because of their environment, these ducklings and goslings were not afraid of people, and some of the bolder ones even pecked at his shoes and trouser legs.

This new batch of ducklings is almost entirely wild ducks, numbering about thirty, while there are very few goslings, only about ten.

Because goose eggs are relatively large, it becomes difficult for a hen to incubate too many.

When the small free-range chickens in the village are brooding, they can't even turn over the goose eggs.

Only Chen Ling's chickens were big, strong, and powerful, making it much easier for them to turn over during the incubation process than ordinary hens.

Otherwise, it would be good if five or six hatched.

Seeing that Chen Ling's old hen wasn't leading her chicks, but instead leading this bunch of little creatures around, Zhao Yubao and the others, who were stretching their muscles downstairs, found it quite strange.

Wang Susu then explained with a smile, "These with black spots are ducklings, and these larger yellow ones are goslings. They were all hatched when our old hen was brooding."

"Oh my, I thought you were raising two kinds of ducks, but these are actually goslings..." The two old ladies really liked these little creatures.

“No, these black ones are wild duck eggs that Ah Ling picked up and had a hen hatch them. The goslings are from our own goose eggs,” Wang Susu said, gently shaking her head.

"So lovely."

The two old ladies squatted down and called to the ducklings and goslings.

Xiang Wenxia and Du Juan often came to our house, so we didn't think much of it. But when the two old ladies saw these furry, chubby little creatures for the first time, their hearts melted.

They are especially adorable because they are not afraid of people, have a strong sense of curiosity, and will come to people as soon as they are called.

The two elderly ladies loved it dearly.

There's just something wrong with it.

Perhaps it's their nature as wild ducks, but these ducklings love to wreak havoc in various ditches, scaring away small fish, shrimp, eels, loaches, and the like so they dare not show their faces. They especially love to eat small loaches, and you can often see two little black creatures, one holding a loach by the head and the other by the tail, fighting and pulling at each other.

Later, even the goslings were corrupted by them. Although they didn't eat meat often, they were playful and started causing all sorts of trouble, even some of the larger fish suffered as a result.

Fortunately, the hens didn't compete with them or join them in harming the fish and shrimp. They simply took good care of them as their own children, sharing earthworms and insects with them when they caught them. You could say they treated them like their own offspring.

Now the ducklings and goslings circled around the two old ladies, but seeing that they weren't being fed, they turned around and waddled into the ditch, splashing and playing in the water while searching for food. The goslings, on the other hand, were restless, pecking at the water plants or swimming to the large lotus pond to peck at the tender lotus leaves.

"Auntie, if you like these little creatures, why don't you catch a couple to take home and raise them in the yard? They'll be great when they grow up and lay eggs."

As Wang Susu wiped Rui Rui's face, she noticed that the two old ladies liked these little trinkets and kept looking at them, so she led the little guy over as well.

"I like it, but I have nowhere to keep it, and it wouldn't survive."

"Let's have our fun at your place for now, and we'll take care of feeding the chickens and ducks for the next two weeks, haha."

Some people, even if they are not from rural areas, enjoy growing vegetables and flowers, raising chickens and ducks as they get older...

And it wasn't just a casual liking, it was an obsessive kind of fascination.

Sure enough, in just a short while, the two old men followed Wang Cunye to the vegetable garden to water and pick vegetables.

"Rui Rui, come here quickly, Daddy and Uncle are going out to walk the dogs, let's go out and play."

Ya Ya ran across the wooden bridge, waving her hand and shouting loudly at Rui Rui.

Rui Rui's eyes lit up immediately. She got down from Wang Susu's arms and called over the two big dogs.

Heiwa was used to it. He would run up to the baby, lie down, and let the little baby ride on him.

However, Rui Rui has always been a strange child, thinking differently from other little kids. He patted Heiwa, pointed at Xiao Jin, and mumbled something in a childish voice.

Anyway, this means I'm definitely going to ride Little Gold today.

Seeing this, Xiao Jin obediently lay down, and after he clumsily climbed up, he grabbed the fur on the neck.

Only then did they steadily carry him out.

Heiwa wasn't ridden today and didn't care. He got up from the ground, shook his fur, stuck out his tongue, and followed closely beside Xiaojin, staying a step behind to protect the little guy.

The two old ladies were astonished to see that Wang Susu remained calm and silent.

Lynx's mother still often helps her son take care of the dog farm, but she has never seen such an obedient and sensible dog. So she puts aside the ducklings and goslings and chats with Wang Susu about the dog at home.

Wang Susu was already used to it; very few guests who came to her home disliked her dog.

Thinking about her son's actions earlier, she couldn't help but chuckle. "Ah Ling is right. This brat is quite good at treating everyone equally. Yesterday he rode Heiwa, and today he wants to ride Xiaojin. He's so young but so clever; I don't know how he's got such a clever mind..."

……

"Wang Wang Wang..."

“No, this dog is not good enough for him. Erhei ignores him, and Heiwa is even less likely to be accepted.”

"Normally, female dogs in heat should have a scent, but your little male dog is acting strangely, he just ignores you."

Whenever he has free time, Chen Ling goes out to let his horses graze and his dogs walk.

This time, Zhao Dahai and Shanmao's families came, and they brought their own dogs. Zhao Dahai still had that gray slender dog, and Shanmao brought a familiar face, that big red dog, the Xiangxi Red Wolf.

Let's not talk about Zhao Dahai.

Last year, Lynx said that after getting married, he would train his dog well, take good care of his favorite dog, and raise it well, so as not to let down his love for many years.

Furthermore, his Xiangxi Red Wolf had reached the age where it was time to breed.

This red wolf is a pre-selected hunting dog.

Lynx wouldn't let this female dog mate with just any random dog.

I had been carefully selecting dogs, but after following Professor Han around and finding many good ones, I delayed the breeding of Red Wolf.

Those who know dogs understand.

This female dog generally cannot be older than four or five years and must have one litter.

Nowadays, not many people spay or neuter their dogs.

If a mother dog doesn't get pregnant once and instead gives birth to a litter of puppies, she will become sick, and her uterus and urinary tract will be prone to problems.

When it happens frequently, every ten days or half a month, it makes the owner anxious and worried, the dog uncomfortable, and the owner also loses peace.

Lynx had already told Chen Ling about this.

Chen Ling also wanted to see if his first-generation wolfhound had this kind of awareness.

The result was still a bit disappointing.

Faced with the red wolf who was already in heat, Erhei and the other male puppies seemed not to smell the scent at all, and continued to excitedly chase and play around, showing no intention of moving closer.

However, Zhao Dahai's greyhound was very agitated and kept circling around the red wolf.

One minute they're crawling around on the ground, the next they're whining and stretching their noses to sniff the source of the scent under the red wolf's tail, making a complete fool of themselves. "They're probably influenced by Heiwa. Heiwa goes into heat later than normal dogs, and he doesn't usually do that at home. These puppies haven't learned from him, so they probably don't even know what this is."

Chen Ling's guess was just wild speculation.

Actually, it's said that female dogs go into heat at fixed times.

Male dogs can mate at any time once they reach sexual maturity; strictly speaking, there is no such thing as being in heat.

Moreover, most male dogs exhibit mounting and swaying behavior from puppyhood, but they are unaware of what they are doing; their impulses are born out of ignorance.

But Chen Ling's dogs, from Heiwa to Erhei and several other male puppies, perhaps because they were too smart, never showed any behavior of climbing on his back or wiggling from a young age.

That's why Chen Ling said last year when Heiwa was restless and harassing Xiaojin, that his dog was in heat and wanted to bite him.

“My little goldfish hasn’t shown any signs of going into heat yet… Why don’t you wait a little longer and let Red Wolf and Erhei spend some time together and see if it works out?”

Chen Ling said to the lynx, "If it doesn't work out, my brother-in-law's two families are coming over for the Dragon Boat Festival. They also have a purebred tiger-headed yellow lynx that they keep on the mountain. I guess they'll bring it over."

"Yes, that's the only way." Lynx nodded.

Beside him, Zhao Dahai rubbed his hands and said, "Look how excited my dog ​​is. How about I let my Huahua mate with Red Wolf?"

"Go away, this time besides the rich family's dog, I only want Tiger Head Yellow..."

"Wow~"

As they talked, they walked up the slope, and the dogs barked excitedly.

In the distance, down in the pale yellow wheat field, a man carrying a bamboo basket and accompanied by a stray dog ​​walked from the direction of the village entrance.

Chen Ling recognized Wang Lixian.

They assumed he had come to help the staff build the small water tower.

We agreed a couple of days ago that the water tower would be repaired starting today, and given Wang Lixian's personality, he wouldn't be late.

As a result, the pack of dogs ran up to him, jumping and hopping around, and Erhei and a few other mischievous ones even tried to rummage into his bamboo basket.

Wang Lixian quickly called out to Chen Ling.

Upon seeing this, Chen Ling hurriedly went over and chased the dogs aside.

Only then did they discover that Wang Lixian was carrying a large wolfhound in his bamboo basket, which was on the verge of death and foaming at the mouth.

Zhao Dahai exclaimed in surprise, "It's a German Shepherd! Brother Xian, why are you raising a dog like that? What happened?"

"Sigh, Boming brought it back when he went out on a trip. It had only been a few days since it got home, and I had just taken off the chain to tame it when it went out, but it ate a dead rat and got poisoned. I've come to see if Fugui has any ideas on how to treat it?"

Wang Lixian sighed, "It's such a pity that such a big wolfhound died like this."

Little Sheep knew that his father-in-law also liked dogs and had been waiting to get puppies from Chen Ling.

The second-generation wolfhound is nowhere to be seen yet.

He brought back this dog for Wang Lixian ahead of time.

"So, is there a way to get rich without wealth?"

Chen Ling kept observing the large wolfhound's condition. When Wang Lixian asked, he nodded and said, "It was discovered early, so there's still hope. Let's go to my place. I'll give it some medicine and make it vomit up."

Now he is well-known as a veterinarian.

Adding to this, the children spread the word that he could even revive puppies that hadn't even opened their eyes, feeding them cat milk and such.

Cat milk it is, Chen Ling was too lazy to argue. It's just that many people think he has some hidden skills, so they come to him when they need something.

Lynx nodded: "Alright, let's hurry back."

Seeing the big wolfhound like this, he was even more anxious than Wang Lixian.

Chen Ling searched around for a moment, then called out to the two little ones who had run into the vegetable garden next door, "Rui Rui, Ya Ya, come back, don't run around, that's someone else's vegetable garden."

Rui Rui was no longer riding on the dog; instead, he was lying under the cucumber trellis in the vegetable garden, secretly nibbling on the cucumbers.

Upon hearing Chen Ling's shout, it immediately plopped down on the ground, turned its little head to look at him innocently, its mouth covered in green juice, and held a piece of tender cucumber in its hand.

Ya Ya also joined in his antics. When she saw the adults looking over, she giggled and hid the stolen cucumbers behind her back.

"It's alright, go ahead and eat. Uncle Sangui's vegetable garden, he won't scold you if he finds out, he might even bring you some."

"That won't do either. Come back quickly, or you'll be in trouble if you run around again."

Chen Ling scolded them twice with a stern face, and after the two little ones and the two big dogs caught up, he hurriedly returned to the farm.

Back at the farm, instead of doing anything else, ignoring Wang Lixian's dog, they took out a baby bottle and fed water to the brat Rui Rui.

Chen Ling and Wang Susu had long since figured out their son's habits.

If you go out for a walk and then come back and drink a bottle of plain water, you're guaranteed to pee.

The young couple did this especially at night.

To prevent this brat from getting tired from playing during the day and wetting the bed at night.

……

After seeing Chen Ling feed her son water, she took out a jar to collect her son's urine.

Everyone looked puzzled, and the elderly men and women also gathered around.

"What is this for?"

"Collect some boy's urine. The dog ate the poisoned rat. Feeding the dog boy's urine will induce vomiting. Just make sure it vomits it all out."

If a dog accidentally eats something containing rat poison, it can still be saved if discovered early.

The method is simple.

Find some virgin urine, pour it down your throat, then cover it with a blanket or old clothes and leave it alone.

Wait an hour or two, and once you've finished vomiting, you'll be fine.

This method has remarkable effects.

But if it's discovered too late, there's no saving it.

I won't go into details about what rat poison looks like in the countryside these days; even if it's called rat poison, people can't stand it.

"What? Boy's urine? This is poisoning. Can boy's urine cure it?"

Zhao Yubao and his companions could hardly believe their ears, feeling it was all too hasty.

"Yes, they use children's urine. So what if it causes poisoning? They even use excrement to save people."

As Chen Ling replied, he took out a large syringe for livestock from the veterinary medicine box, removed the needle, drew clear boy's urine into the syringe, and gestured for Wang Lixian to pry open the big wolfhound's mouth and slowly inject it.

Rui Rui's urination was quite a large amount; it took almost two syringes of boy's urine to be injected into the dog's mouth.

The large wolfhound reacted violently immediately, lying on the ground with its abdomen convulsing as if it were about to vomit.

"Hey, it actually works?"

Seeing everyone's surprised and worried expressions, and their apparent desire to help the large wolfhound, Chen Ling stood up, waved his hand, and said, "Don't worry about it now, and don't bother covering it. It still has strength after being poisoned; let it try to vomit it out on its own..."

"Alright, we'll listen to Fugui. Have you eaten yet? After you've eaten, let's go take a look at the spring and discuss how to build the water tower."

Without hesitation, Wang Lixian trusted Chen Ling as always.

"We've already eaten, so let's go take a look."

Chen Ling thought for a moment and then said, "Let's move the dog over there too, so we can keep an eye on it. Otherwise, it'll be bad if the things it vomits up get eaten by the rest of the family."

"it is good."

"Sigh, it's because the dogs outside are stupid and eat random things. The dogs in our village have never caused such a thing."

People in the countryside often poison rats and other wild animals. They are aware of this and don't let their dogs eat rats when they are young, for fear that they will get used to it and die from poisoning after eating poisoned rats.

City dogs wouldn't know any of this, and besides, this big German Shepherd has a huge appetite; if it can't get enough leftovers from the farm, it'll naturally go outside to find food...

So, for the entire morning, the group slowly built the water tower while keeping an eye on the large wolfhound nearby.

Lynx paid even more attention than Wang Lixian, glancing at it every now and then.

Around 11 a.m., the large wolfhound vomited up its contents. After a while, it stood up unsteadily, seemingly looking for water.

The lynx was overjoyed: "This boy's urine is so powerful! One pee really saved the dog's life."

Zhao Dahai, standing nearby, and the elders from both families also had their eyes light up, feeling that they had learned a trick.

I thought to myself that if I encounter something like this in the future, maybe I can show off my skills.

Chen Ling laughed and said, "This German Shepherd is a big male dog. Since you care so much about it, once it's better, you can breed it with your Red Wolf."

Wang Lixian chuckled and joined in the banter.

Chen Ling had clearly saved the dog, and he breathed a sigh of relief and was in a good mood.

After all, the third son-in-law openly said that he didn't spend any money on the dog, which was a gift from a friend, but in reality, he must have spent money on it. This big wolfhound is so majestic and intimidating, it must have cost quite a bit of money.

He would be heartbroken if he couldn't be saved.
