Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 345 Trouble
Watching Li Hongqi lead the young couple to the grassy slope.

Let the crow witness love!
Li Hongbing shook his head and sighed, he couldn't understand the strange brain circuits of young people nowadays.

"Da Hua, go to the barn and tell them that there are tourists coming to the meadow recently, so don't have nothing to do, especially the old pig."

Ow!

Dahua nodded, and ran to the meadow with her siblings.

Li Hongbing turned around and just walked to the door.

Three small cars appeared on the mountain road again, driving straight towards the old house.

When the small convoy came to a complete stop, Wang Dalai jumped out from the co-pilot of the leading car, and several other cars got off one after another. Men and women, there were quite a few people, and they all took pictures with their mobile phones and exclaimed. fruit.

Li Hongbing frowned.

It's okay to pick the fruit and eat it, but you can't just break the branches, and you can't pick the unripe fruit and throw it on the ground.

"Wang Dalai, your skin is itchy, why bring so many people to my house?"

When Wang Dalai got off the car, he didn't see Li Hongbing. He thought who would eat the fruit on the tree, so he didn't stop the tourists from stretching out their hands.

Shouts are heard.

Wang Dalai shook his body, turned his head to look at the gate of Li's house, Uncle Hong Bing raised his eyebrows, stood under the eaves with his hips akimbo, and quickly turned his head and yelled at the fruit-pickers.

"Don't pick it, don't pick it!!"

"Why, didn't you say that the rural people are hospitable, and you can eat the fruit on the tree. Don't say, this lychee tastes really good. What kind, I'll buy some when I go back." A middle-aged woman stuffed her mouth with lychees, and said vaguely. Qing responded, continuing to quickly pick the fruit in his hand.

sweat!
At this moment, a layer of cold sweat appeared on Wang Dalai's forehead, and he greeted the approaching Li Hongbing with an awkward smile.

Wang Wang Wang!
There were bursts of barking, and a dozen big, ferocious-looking dogs ran out from the grassy slopes and fruit trees.

Sometimes people's persuasion doesn't work, but the dog's persuasion has a different effect.

Hearing the barking of the dog, those fruit-picking tourists immediately panicked and ran towards the car.

One ear received the news from Li Hongbing and arrived with a pack of dogs.

Be honest now!

Li Hongbing put his arms in front of his chest and sneered, "Wang Dalai, you are very courageous. You brought people to my house to steal fruit in broad daylight."

"Uncle Hongbing, you are wronged!" Wang Dalai knew that Li Hongbing's domineering had caused him no good fruit to eat, so he quickly explained, "They...they are going to Moon Bay, so I will lead the way. I really didn't let them pick the fruit. .”

Going to Moon Bay again?

Li Hongbing looked at the three cars, seven or eight people of men and women.

"My fellow, how much is the fruit? We will pay you back. Don't let the dog bite you!" The middle-aged woman picking lychees yelled in horror.

Li Hongbing waved his hand to let a group of dogs with ear straps disperse.

I am a person who lacks that kind of fruit. Picking fruit is fine, but breaking branches is too much, but for the sake of tourists, I don't plan to go into it.

"Let's go, Da Lai, the people you brought here, bring them back after going to Moon Bay, remember not to throw garbage on the meadow."

What!
I was just leading the way, and I didn't mention going to Moon Bay. It takes more than an hour to walk from Li's old house to Moon Bay!
Wang Dalai pressed his face bitterly, and wanted to say something, but Li Hongbing glared at him, swallowed the words back, and led the man to the grassy slope deflatedly.

Looking at the cars parked in disorder in front of the door, the ground is full of branches, leaves and fruits of fruit trees.

Li Hongbing only felt trouble for a while.

Unexpectedly, the video posted by Zhao Xiaoyong has such a great effect. In just one day, tourists came to the door.

According to the current wave of running to the old house, I can't make a living.

No.

Even if you go to the meadow to play, you can't pass in front of the old house.

After Li Hongbing made up his mind, he asked One Ear to call the Bull Demon King and the cows, and went back to the house by himself. Under Shan Xing's curious eyes, he found a cardboard box, and wrote the road on the cardboard box with a brush left by his grandfather. No way, no outsiders are allowed to enter, please detour to play.

Holding the cardboard box and running out of the yard, the Bull Demon King stood at the door with his wives. The shriveled calf was now almost half the size of his father, and his fur was shiny.

Pushing away the coquettish little boy, Li Hongbing hung the notice on the Bull Demon King's back.

"Lao Niu, you will go to the intersection of the mountain road to guard later. Except for the villagers, other people and vehicles are not allowed to pass."

Moo!

The Bull Demon King nodded, took the task that Li Hongbing had given him, and wandered towards the village entrance with the cows.

Just as Li Hongbing guessed.

A few more cars appeared at the intersection into the village, but were stopped by the idlers in the village.

Li Sanqing led the idlers in the village, and even set up checkpoints on the road spontaneously, and offered 100 yuan to pay the toll, otherwise he would not be allowed to enter the village, and he would row a car without paying.

Tourists are worried that the other party will really do what they say, and this is a deep mountain and old forest. They are rushing to do more than less, so they have to obediently pay.

After collecting the money, the idlers in the village readily led the way.

But when we got to the mountain road leading to Li’s old house, we were blocked by a herd of cows, especially the big buffalo at the head, my god, it’s really big, and the horns are like guillotines.

"Get out of the way, don't block the way, go to the meadow to graze!" Li Sanqing leaned over and picked up a branch to scare him.

Moo!
The Bull Demon King lowered his head, shook the two big horns on his head, and scratched the ground with big hoofs.

A cow wants to stand up to a man!
Li Sanqing ran back in fright.

Seeing people walk away, the Bull Demon King raised his head and turned his body sideways, revealing the notice.

[This road is blocked, and outsiders are prohibited from entering. Please detour when you play, Li Hongbing. 】

Uncle Red Soldier won't let you go!

Li Sanqing complained secretly, and took the money for leading the way, but Uncle Hongbing blocked the way, and he probably couldn't come back after a detour.

"Hey, what's going on, the money has been collected, why don't you leave." A tourist urged impatiently.

"Let's go!" Li Sanqing led the tourists back to the parking spot by the same route, "It's a bit far from here, and you can go to Moon Bay along the meadow."

"Then hurry up, it's so hot today!" A tourist finished his drink and threw the empty bottle on the ground.

The old house finally settled down.

Li Hongbing also lost the mood of Qingqing with Shan Xing, and the two sat under the old oak tree and continued to make river lanterns.

River lanterns are also called "lotus lanterns". It is a traditional custom in the forest area every Qingming Festival and July and a half. It is used to mourn the deceased relatives and bless the living people.

The first step in making a river lamp is to make the floor, a palm-sized wooden board, and cut holes around the wooden board, so that the bottom board is ready.

The second step is to use thin bamboo strips as lamp bones. The bamboo strips are divided into several pieces of different lengths, and then these bamboo strips are sewn together with thin threads to form a conical skeleton.

Finally, wrap the bottom of the skeleton with bamboo strips and insert them into the holes chiseled in the planks to make them stronger.

The third step is to paste the paper. The purpose of pasting the paper is to make the surface of the river lantern smoother, and also to make the colored silk and lanterns better stick to the river lantern.

First, cut the paper to a suitable size, then apply glue, and stick it on the lamp bone.After pasting the paper, flatten it with your hands to make it smoother.

The fourth step is to decorate the colored silk. Cut the colored silk to a suitable size, and then stick it on the river lantern with glue. When the candle is lit, the colorful colors will be reflected.

As the saying goes, men and women match, work is not tired.

Li Hongbing was in charge of physical work with his clumsy hands, Shan Xing was ingenious and handy, and after making stickers and sticking silk, a beautiful river lantern came out of the oven.

at this time.

The two girls came out of the warehouse after taking a nap, rubbing their eyes, with a little golden monkey lying in their arms, followed by the princess, panda fox, bear cub, golden python, and leopard cat cub.

Good guy, there is a huge crowd, those who don't know it think the circus is coming.

"Aunt Xing, is there anything to eat? I'm hungry!" Anna rubbed her belly with a pitiful look.

When Shan Xing heard this, He Deng didn't bother to make it, so he got up and went to the kitchen to get food.

The animals had just come out of the cages. In order to allow them to better absorb the original power, Li Hongbing didn't feed them any food. This would see that their mental state recovered a lot, he asked with a smile.

"Are you hungry?"

When the animals heard that they were going to eat, they nodded one by one.

Li Hongbing got up and went to the chicken coop to fetch eggs, which were eggs produced by ephedra chickens, specially for the family to eat. Li Hongbing often provided the ephedra chickens with their original strength.

Seeing the eggs, the animals' eyes lit up one by one.

"Line up and come one by one." Li Hongbing sat on a chair with a basket in his hand.

The animals lined up immediately.

Panda Fox was in the front row, opened his mouth to take an egg, straightened up and bowed with two front paws in thanks.

Anna and Nanna thought it was very interesting and volunteered to take over the job of feeding animals.

Li Hongbing also had time to go to the warehouse to look at the tiger.

It has to be said that the power of origin is too powerful for animals. When this tiger was first picked up, it was covered in injuries and extremely weak.

Day and night passed.

The minor injuries have basically healed, leaving only a few major wounds.

"How do you feel?" Li Hongbing asked with a smile.

purr purr!

The tiger felt more relaxed than ever, got up and dragged his disabled legs, moved to Li Hongbing's legs and let out a cry of joy.

Li Hongbing stroked the rough fur of the tiger, feeling secretly pleased. While others stroke cats, I stroke tigers.

"It's okay to go out for a walk, it's good for the wound to heal, I'll help you reattach your legs tomorrow, and you can run in the future!"

The tiger froze, his eyes full of confusion.

run!
The memory of pair running still stays in my childhood, when I was free with my mother. Since I was taken away by a stranger, I have been whipped and sticked every day. If I don’t do well, I will be beaten and starved. If I do well, I will be rewarded.

Thinking of this, the tiger suddenly straightened up and made a bowing motion with its front paws, but the disabled hind legs made it fall to the ground as soon as it sat up.

This scene made Li Hongbing very sad.

Just as the tiger continued to struggle to complete the bow, Li Hongbing stopped it.

"Don't do it, this is not a circus, no one will beat you, no one will force you to perform, you can do whatever you want. Let's go out and bask in the sun."

While speaking, Li Hongbing walked to the warehouse door and waved.

The tiger looked at the door with a look of fear in his eyes. Every time he went out in his memory, it was a pain.

Ow!

With a low growl, the tiger moved his body back to the bedding, as if this was the safest place.

"Don't be afraid, come out to bask in the sun and eat eggs!" Li Hongbing encouraged softly.

Tiger looked up at Li Hongbing, the sun was shining on this man, warm and soft, his smile was like a spring breeze blowing on his face.

In a daze, Tiger thought of his mother, the first time he stepped out of the cage, it was his mother who stood at the door and encouraged him gently.

Carefully got up, took the first step carefully, and walked out the door carefully.

There are no cages outside the door, no villains who laugh at themselves, no sticks, no whips, and no rotten food.

Only warm sunlight and free air.

The animals who were eating eggs on the rice field, when they turned their heads and saw the tiger poking its head, they cried out in joy.

The princess even ran up to the tiger, raised her paw, slapped it, and criticized it for being timid.

And the two leopard cat cubs stumbled over when they heard the princess' cry, and got under the princess's body and sucked it indiscriminately.

Meow!
My old lady is still a big girl with yellow flowers!
Bite what?
The princess was ashamed and angry, and raised her paw to give the leopard cat cubs a couple of slaps, but seeing their pitiful appearance, her heart softened, she licked the leopard cat cubs a few times with her head, and looked up at Li Hongbing.

Shit shoveler, find something to eat, and let them suck, how can I be a cat.

After the little guys made a fuss, the sad atmosphere disappeared.

The tiger dragged its hind legs to the old oak tree, enjoying the warm sunshine and eating delicious eggs.

And Li Hongbing also found milk powder from home and fed it to the leopard cat cubs.

The old house is quiet and peaceful. Animals of different species gather together like family members.

The sun gradually went down.

Cooking smoke curls up, and the distant mountains are covered with golden clothes.

Captain Xu and Zhao Xiaoyong returned after inspecting the mandarin duck population, declined Li Hongbing's invitation to eat, and left separately.

As for the tourists who went to see the crow show, they were not invited. Let them play for nothing in the meadow, and confiscate the money. They still want to eat and eat farts!
As the last rays of the sun set.

The activity of releasing the river lanterns officially started. Because of the village custom, hot rice can only be eaten after the river lanterns are released. Li Hongbing hastily ate some white buns with pickles.

Since it was night, the animals had just arrived and were not yet familiar with the environment, so they only took their family members and wolf dogs out of the house.

The place where the river lanterns are placed is a gentle slope not far from Horseshoe Bay.

On the meadow, the villagers in twos and threes carried their baskets and walked towards the light spot. Li Hongbing joined the main force, but Shawa and Gangzi became the focus.

They are all farmers living in the mountains, with no information, and the farthest place they have been to is Songbai Town. The moment they saw Gangzi, they almost scared the shit out of them.

"The gate of ghosts opens in the middle of July, and the mountain spirits come out!"

"Damn it, it's the Great Mouse Immortal, hurry up and say goodbye!"

"The mouse spirit is coming, run away."

"What the hell, donkey head, mouse body, mountain spirit!"

I heard someone calling myself a mouse.

Gangzi's donkey face suddenly collapsed, and he stood restlessly on the spot, ready to kick the most vicious villager.

Snapped!
The silly baby just slapped back, and the slap was full of gold stars.

Li Hongbing hastily explained to the villagers that this is a foreign animal called a kangaroo, which was sent by the forest police today.

After an explanation, and the forest police as security, the villagers were relieved, but they kept glancing at Gangzi's muscular body from time to time, whispering to each other.

"Such a fat mouse, I don't know if the meat is good or not!"

"Mountain mice have been eaten, but what do foreign mice taste like?"

Gangzi was furious when he heard that, if he couldn't beat the idiot, he would give these local turtles a little color in whatever they said.
