My 1995 Small Farm.

Chapter 757: Drinking and Fighting the Wolf

Chen Ling's scalp suddenly went numb: "Oh my god, if I hadn't come here on a whim, these parrots might have really become like the swallows on the dam, flooding the cave."

Sighing, he knew that the baskets would not be able to hold them all.

So he waved his hand and moved all the parrot eggs to the desert area and covered them with sand.

He once had the experience of hatching duck eggs in a cave.

Know that these eggs will germinate on their own as long as they come into contact with spiritual energy.

After all, spiritual energy can be absorbed through the eggshell.

The desert area isolates the spiritual energy, preventing the eggs from hatching quickly, and at the same time, a thin layer of sand covers them, preventing them from being damaged by the sun.

"Originally I was just thinking of finding some harmful birds for Er Tuzi to eat, but now I've found so many parrot eggs. It's going to be hard to handle them."

Chen Ling was a little worried. Parrots reproduced very quickly, so he fed the parrot eggs to Er Tuzi and had no regrets.

But there were too many of them. Feeding them all to the eagles or to the dogs would be too extravagant.

Just when he thought he should put the matter aside and go to the village for the banquet first.

His eyes swept across the sack containing letters in front of the hut, and an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

"After the cartoon came out, the kids were so enthusiastic, should I give them some small gifts as well?"

"Many of them like to raise puppies, but there are too few puppies. I can only give them to a small number of people at present. But if I give them parrot eggs as gifts and let them hatch little birds to raise for fun, it must be very interesting."

Chen Ling knew that the parrot eggs in the cave had very strong vitality.

Just like the duck eggs that were hatched in the cave.

Without the parent birds to incubate with their body temperature, they will eventually be able to break out of the shells on their own.

Besides, he didn't believe that after he gave these little gifts, the children would not treat them sincerely and give them a warm place to help them hatch and break out of their shells.

As for the fact that there is no express delivery these days, it is inconvenient to deliver things to children, but that doesn’t matter.

He has most of the contact addresses, and even has the addresses of their schools.

The final exams are coming soon and the children are going to have winter vacation.

Chen Ling can pack these bird eggs into foam boxes and transport a large batch of parrot eggs directly to school in the same way as transporting fresh chicken eggs.

Let the children collect them together.

The winter vacation homework tasks for young children are not heavy. Let them raise a bird, observe the hatching of the bird, ask them to write an essay, etc. The children will not resist, and the teachers will be happy to do so.

The more Chen Ling thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible.

Now that he had found a solution to the parrot eggs, Chen Ling no longer stayed in the cave. He went straight out of the cave and rode his little green horse towards the village.

When Chen Ling arrived, he found that he was indeed the last one to arrive.

But everyone reserved a seat for him, and the host even pulled him to sit down, saying that if they hadn't known he was busy, they would have invited him to prepare the banquet.

Chen Ling exchanged a few polite words with them and was then pulled over by the groom to drink.

The groom Li Jianxin is a few years older than him. Strictly speaking, he should be about the same age as Chen Yuqiang. I don’t know if he was a classmate of Chen Yuqiang, but he has a pretty good relationship with Chen Yuqiang.

Now Chen Yuqiang, Chen Ze and others have not returned from work yet.

When Chen Ling arrived, he originally wanted to sit with Wang Lixian and the others.

But Li Jianxin refused and insisted that Chen Ling sit next to him, saying that he wanted to have a few more drinks with him.

When everyone saw this, no one thought that Li Jianxin was trying to curry favor with Chen Ling. They just laughed and asked Chen Ling to take the seat.

The reason is simple.

If it weren't for Chen Ling, their village would have become a popular place in the surrounding area. The older young men in the village would have a hard time finding a wife, and they really don't know when they will be able to do so.

The people in the village know this better than anyone else.

So no matter whose family is getting married, whether they have had any contact with Chen Ling or not, they will come and invite him.

This kind of lifelong event has been resolved.

That would make me happier than letting them earn 10,000 yuan.

Moreover, the village is richer this year than in previous years, and the wedding banquet is very luxurious, with basically everything including chicken, duck, fish and meat.

"The recent weddings in the village have not had the chance to eat the food cooked by Fugui. I guess the next time we'll have to wait for him to host a wedding banquet for his second and third children."

"Of course. Fugui has to take care of his own business. Now that Professor Zhao is teaching me, I can start writing. I want to be a writer in the future."

"I've heard about it, too. My kid said Fugui can write several pages a day. He can publish a book in the future."

"..."

The villagers talked and toasted Chen Ling.

People like Mr. Wu were also present and would interject from time to time.

After they came to the village, although it was not their first time to attend a wedding, they still felt that this atmosphere was more comfortable and more intimate than a Western-style wedding.

The banquet also tastes more delicious.

"My master not only writes books, he also writes research papers. How should I put it to you, he's what you guys often call a scientist, right?"

Mr. Wu said loudly and proudly.

"the scientist?"

The whole yard fell silent for a moment. After a while, someone gasped and said, "Is Fugui still researching cannonballs in secret?"

Old Wu was just about to show off for his master, but when he heard this, he almost got a fishbone choked on his throat.

He rolled his eyes and coughed, causing his companions to burst into laughter.

"What shells? I'm still researching rockets."

Chen Ling smiled and said, "You guys can brag for me. When you go out, just say that I have three heads and six arms and am more powerful than Sun Wukong."

Everyone laughed when they heard this. They felt that this was the good thing about Chen Ling: even though he was rich and capable, he never showed off.

They are much better than those people who become unbridled as soon as they have a little money.

We had a lively meal until nine o'clock in the evening, when suddenly there was a loud commotion outside.

Then someone shouted "Fugui" and someone shouted "Lixian", and then a panting young man was welcomed in.

"Dad, Uncle Fugui..."

The man who came was Si Ni'er's husband. When Wang Lixian saw his appearance, he panicked: "What's going on?"

"Dad, there are wolves in Yangtougou. They are too fierce. The police station in the village is understaffed. We have no choice but to come and call Uncle Fugui for help."

The Si Nier man spoke breathlessly.

The guests in the yard suddenly became noisy and were all surprised. This year was also strange. There were fewer wolves on their side and they all ran to the mountains on the other side of the village.

Wang Lixian was relieved, as he thought something had happened to Si Ni'er.

After all, Si Ni'er just got pregnant this year.

It almost scared him.

I didn’t expect it to be a wolf incident.

"Are there wolves? Then bring Si Ni'er over to live with you tomorrow!"

After Wang Lixian finished speaking, he saw Chen Ling's face turn red, and said, "Your Uncle Fugui drank a little too much tonight. Why don't you go to the county to call for help? Captain Li in the county is also very familiar with your Uncle Fugui."

Unexpectedly, Chen Ling waved his hand, stood up and said: "It's okay, no need to go to the county, I can just go there with Xiao Yang." You know what, his state is very much like a drunkard who is drunk and talking big.

So everyone became worried all of a sudden.

They all advised him not to go.

Even if we want to go, we need to call more people and bring more guns.

"Okay, if you're worried, just follow me and I'll let Brother Xian drive a tractor to my house and pick you up."

Chen Ling waved his hand and strode out. When passing by the kitchen, he picked up a mace-shaped iron hammer, then got on his horse and left.

"Fugui, Fugui, don't be reckless, get your gun, get your gun!"

Many people were shouting behind us, extremely anxious.

"Don't worry, everyone. My master took a dog to fight a wild boar two days ago, and he didn't even fire a gun."

Old Wu quickly reassured everyone, but he was actually a little worried. After all, wolves were different from wild boars, so he quickly said, "Lixian, drive the tractor, and we'll drive the car. Let's grab a few more guns and rush over together."

"Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Wu is right. Fugui can hunt leopards and wild boars, but he's drunk, so he's not the same as usual. Let's go with a few more people."

……

Chen Ling did drink too much today, mainly because he was thinking about giving benefits to the children and was in a good mood. When he came to the village, he brought some fruit wine from home. He brewed this fruit wine himself and there was no accurate alcohol content.

There are ups and downs, but the aftereffect is quite strong.

Chen Ling's physique is much better than that of ordinary people. He has never been drunk to this extent in the past two years.

For a moment, I felt this feeling was very novel.

It was especially exciting when I rode a horse and galloped out of the village against the night wind.

He was a playful person to begin with, and after drinking he let go even more and behaved in a reckless manner.

The little green horse is even wilder at heart, and it wishes its owner would take it out to go crazy.

In addition, the thief horse was very familiar with Yangtougou and ran very fast on the mountain road.

At the same time, the wolves outside Yangtougou had come down the mountain and confronted the humans.

The township police station was short-staffed, so only three people came.

Yangtougou Village is small, with few guns and only two hunters.

There were only seven or eight people holding guns, and many of them were not good at shooting and could not hit the wolves, so the wolves found out their situation.

There were wolves left behind to hold them back.

The remaining wolves went to the village to drive away the livestock.

Yes.

Wolves are very smart and cunning. They know how to divide their forces and use some simple military tactics.

This was unbelievable, but the screams of the villagers left no time to think about it.

Speaking of Yangtougou, it is quite different from Chenwangzhuang. Due to the high and low terrain, the villagers' houses are scattered.

Many of them are single-family homes.

Therefore, the house was built shorter.

Low houses and small gates are common features of small mountain villages in the Qinling Mountains.

But the disadvantage is obvious, that is, it is impossible to prevent wolves from appearing.

There are strong wolves that can jump very high and can jump directly onto the roof of a villager's house.

Jump along the roof into the yard to eat the livestock.

If it was a short earthen wall, it would be even more defenseless, and the wolf would just jump over the wall and enter the yard.

The villagers were unable to stop the wolves at all. The timid ones could only hide in the house, close the door, and shout in an attempt to scare away the wolves that broke into their homes.

As for why not build your home into a large courtyard?

This requires us to ask whether the people in the mountains have enough money in their pockets.

And there was no need to guard against wolves in the past.

The reason is also very simple.

During the Commune era, the militiamen who rode on horseback to hunt wolves at night had already become afraid of wolves.

Those good guys were very ferocious. They didn't care whether the wolves hurt people or not. As long as they saw a wolf, they would chase it on horseback and beat it until it dared not to go to the village again.

After all, this is an era of fighting against heaven and earth, and man can conquer nature. A mere beast is really not worth mentioning.

As a result, now someone deliberately lured wolves into the village and wanted to raise them. It has become such a mess that it is hard to say what to do.

The little green horse is very fast.

Wang Lixian and his companions had just reached the bridge outside Jinmen Village when Chen Ling had already arrived at Yangtougou.

As we entered the village, we heard bursts of wolf howling, and from time to time we heard gunshots and the sound of firecrackers from the front.

Chen Ling was a little sober at this time. He heard the howling of wolves everywhere. He tightened the iron hammer in his hand and cursed: "Damn it, there are still a lot of wolves. I'm afraid that all the wolves near Chenwangzhuang have run here."

At this moment, a small courtyard with a private door on the slope in front was banged open, and two pairs of green eyes and a group of orange-yellow eyes poured out from the door.

These are two wolves driving the flock of sheep.

Seeing this scene, the little green horse didn't need Chen Ling's reminder at all. It neighed "hiss", raised its hooves and rushed up the slope.

I don’t know if it’s because the little green horse often comes out at night to harm people and has evil spirits on it.

The two wolves were frightened. Under Chen Ling's eyes that could see at night, the two wolves howled fiercely, tucked their tails between their legs, turned around and tried to run away.

"You bitch, where can I run?"

Chen Ling shouted hurriedly, and the alcohol that had just dissipated surged up again, making his chest hot.

With the help of the little green horse's great speed, he caught up with a wolf and hit it on the head with a hammer.

The wolf was immediately gored and fell to the ground.

Blood was oozing out of all his orifices and his brain was coming out.

The other wolf was frightened and howled. He lowered his body and crawled under the belly of the sheep, trying to hide under the cover of the flock.

Chen Ling glanced at it and didn't bother to pay attention to it. He had already seen a wolf standing on the roof of another courtyard. He didn't know whether it was keeping watch or giving orders.

Just ride your horse and chase after him.

The wolf was not stupid. Seeing Chen Ling coming at him aggressively and knowing how powerful Chen Ling was, it jumped off the roof without hesitation.

Turn around and run.

Chen Ling wanted to chase it, but there was actually another wolf in the yard at that moment, confronting the people inside through the door, scratching the door and window constantly, as if it was targeting the child.

The little green horse noticed it, jumped up, jumped over the short courtyard wall and rushed over.

But the yard was too small, and the little green horse was so excited that he just rushed in without being able to stop the car. As a result, after rushing past, his head hit someone's window, smashing it to pieces and throwing Chen Ling off.

The wolf that was originally in the yard was also frightened by the man and the horse.

But now the little green horse was stuck in the window, and Chen Ling fell to the ground again. More importantly, there was no smell of gunpowder on Chen Ling that scared them, so the wolf immediately became bolder.

It opened its mouth and bit Chen Ling.

"Oh my god, there's another one hiding in this yard!"
