Siheyuan: Starting from the Pig Killer

Chapter 166 Choosing a Dog
The forest farm was still some distance away from Morigen's village, so at Morigen's suggestion, everyone set off on horses.

Shen Yong knew how to ride a horse. He learned it when he was in the team, but neither Xiang Yunduan nor Ye Xiaofeng knew how to ride a horse. Fortunately, because they were traveling through the mountains, there was no need for them to gallop, so they reluctantly rode up, but the horse The reins were in the hands of Mo Rigen and Shen Yong, so they were still safe.

Xiang Yunduan is still very interested in horse riding, but he has never had the chance to try it. This time he had a little experience.

It's a pity that the "riding" skill has not been awakened. I guess if you want to have the "riding" skill, you have to practice hard.

The horses they were riding did not look tall, but rather short. However, they were quite nimble when running. Especially in the mountains, they felt like a fish in water.

"Comrade Morigen, I see that you have been observing Huzi. It seems that you are also a good dog trainer!"

On the way, Xiang Yunduan saw Mo Rigen's eyes frequently looking at Huzi and couldn't help but ask.

"Call me Lao Mo, that's what all the workers in the forest farm call me!"

Mo Rigen said: "Is it called Huzi? It is indeed a good dog. Is this the police dog you mentioned before? The kind that can help the police comrades handle cases? In it, I feel a kind of dog that can only be seen in the Wolf King. Only then can you feel the temperament!”

"Oh? Are there many wolves here?" Xiang Yunduan asked.

"Catch a wolf? Just rely on it? This tiger? With all due respect, I admit that the tiger is very powerful, but if it encounters a pack of wolves, let alone two wolves, the tiger will never recover!" Mo Ri Gen said suspiciously.

To tell you the truth, in addition to looking for Oroqen hounds this time, we also want to capture some wolves. When we capture the wolves, we can let you follow us to see them. Then you will know how powerful our Director Xiang is! "

"Of course it's not just a tiger and a dog. We brought a total of ten trained police dogs this time just to catch wolves. You can just watch when the time comes!" Ye Xiaofeng said proudly.

Ye Xiaofeng joined the police dog training base when it was first established. He was one of the first people to train police dogs with Xiang Yunduan. When it comes to understanding police dogs, he still has a lot to say.

"Huh?" Mo Rigen glanced at Ye Xiaofeng, full of suspicion, and he looked a little angry. After all, saying in front of an Oroqen people that they don't know how to train dogs is a bit too arrogant. .

It's just that Mo Rigen is a bit bold in temperament. Considering that Xiang Yunduan and the other three are guests from afar, he doesn't care.

But when it comes to group strength, wolves have a huge advantage. Sometimes, when wolves come down the mountain, their purpose may not be sheep, pigs, etc., but the dogs raised by the villagers.

"How can it be as easy as you say? These dogs can only cooperate with each other under the command of a human. Once there is no human command, they will be nothing compared to a pack of wolves. A pack of seven or eight wolves will kill more than a dozen It's really not that difficult to keep a group of dogs!" Mo Rigen said.

Although Xiang Yunduan planned to introduce wolves to breed new dog breeds from the beginning, in fact, he didn't know much about wolves, that is, he only occasionally looked at the animal world before traveling. To be honest, he was definitely not as good as Mo Rigen. Such an old hunter who comes from a fishing and hunting nation.

Xiang Yunduan is not surprised that wolves can drive sheep. Otherwise, how could there be shepherd dogs?

"That's because you don't know how to train. If you leave it to our Director Xiang to train for a period of time, Bao will know how to cooperate better than the wolves!" Ye Xiaofeng next to him suddenly interjected.

"It makes people feel helpless when talking about this. Compared with wolves, dogs are not necessarily inferior to wolves in terms of individual strength. Dogs may even have an advantage. After all, dogs are fed and don't have to worry about not having enough to eat. Wolves are not. Sure, you will often go hungry.

When Morigen talked about this, he was also sighing and shaking his head.

"There are so many. From time to time, wolves sneak into the villages near the foot of the mountain at night to steal sheep and chickens. Sometimes they can even steal big fat pigs!" Mo Rigen said.

Speaking of which, there are many magical things about this wolf. The wolf can even drive a flock of sheep forward. Usually two wolves can cooperate to drive a flock of seven or eight sheep into the mountains! "

Xiang Yunduan was a little surprised. This pig weighed at least a hundred pounds, and it was separated from the pig pen. How could he steal it out?
As if seeing Xiang Yunduan's doubts, Mo Rigen explained: "Don't believe it yet, I have personally seen two wolves holding a pig in their mouths, lifting it up, and then jumping one meter with a slight jump. The walls of the pig pen are high. Those animals are very strong, and their bite force is also ridiculously strong. Ordinary dogs can't even compare!

"Then you should train the dogs more and let the dogs learn to cooperate. In that case, if there are seven, eight or even ten dogs chasing wolves together, you don't have to worry about being ambushed and eaten!" Xiang Yunduan said.

The wolf pack will send one or two wolves into the village to attract the dog's attention, and then deliberately lure the dog to chase. In the end, the dog will naturally fall into the ambush of the wolf pack, and there will be no return!
Because of this kind of thing, the villagers can only tie up the dogs at night. But in this way, without the obstruction of the dogs, the wolves will be able to grab the sheep, chickens, etc. very smoothly, waiting for the sleeping people When you hear the barking of dogs and get up to check again, the wolves have usually caught enough prey and started to retreat! "

"Huh? Pigs can also steal?"

But Mo Rigen didn't speak, but Ye Xiaofeng was very enthusiastic and continued: "Looking at Comrade Mo Rigen's expression, he seems a little unconvinced, but it doesn't matter, we can let you see it.

"Aren't you raising dogs? Can you let the wolves take away pigs, sheep, etc.?" Xiang Yunduan asked again.

It is precisely because he knows so well that he has such great confidence. Although he does not know how powerful the wolves are, he believes that no matter how powerful the wolves are, they will not be more powerful than the police dogs trained in the base.

"Really?"

Mo Rigen did not look at Ye Xiaofeng again, but asked Xiang Yunduan.

"We do have a plan to catch wolves!" Xiang Yunduan nodded and glared at Ye Xiaofeng. This kid was so awesome and liked to show off.

That is to say, Morigen seems to have a forthright temperament. If it were another person, you look down on him so much and still want to get an Oroqen hound? Just dream.

"Really use dogs... Oh, it's police dogs. Do you really use police dogs to catch wolves? Can I visit?" Mo Rigen asked, looking very interested.

"Of course, we can communicate with each other then. To be honest, I'm also very interested in the way you Oroqen people train hounds!" Xiang Yunduan agreed.

They chatted along the way and listened to Lao Mo's introduction to the history of the Oroqen people. Around noon, they arrived at Lao Mo's village.

There are not many people in this village. Counting all men, women, old and children, there are only about 200 people. But according to Lao Mo, it is already considered a big village.

Because according to statistics, there are only five to six thousand Oroqen people in total now, and almost half of them are in Inner Mongolia.

This was the first time Xiang Yunduan knew this news. He originally thought that the Oroqen people were only found in the Northeast.

Lao Mo seemed to be very popular in the village. He brought Xiang Yunduan and three other outsiders into the village without encountering any difficulties. Soon, under Lao Mo's introduction, Xiang Yunduan met Lao Sa from this village. Full of acquaintance.

In fact, communes are being established all over the country now, and here is of course no exception. However, when people in the village have something to do, they are still used to asking the old shaman.

This situation is not unique to the Oroqen people. In fact, in some areas in the south, where clan power is relatively strong, the same is true. If anything happens between villagers, they always talk to the clan elders.

The old shaman didn’t know how old he was. His face was wrinkled and his skin was dark. He was wearing the traditional clothing of the Oroqen people. He didn’t have any objections to the arrival of Xiang Yunduan and the others. When he knew that they wanted to buy some hounds, he said bluntly Let Lao Mo take them to pick, and it’s free of charge!
Of course Xiang Yunduan couldn't take it for nothing, so he kept the specialties he brought from Sijiu City. After getting the old shaman's approval, Mo Rigen soon took Xiang Yunduan and the others to select hounds from the homes of those who raised them.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Just when Xiang Yunduan came out of the third house, a little disappointed, he finally met the golden-talented hound at the fourth house.

"Ouch!"

Huzi, who had been relatively lazy before, finally became serious when he heard this barking.

Soon, the two dogs looked at each other.

This is a brown-gray Oroqen hound with a shoulder height that is slightly higher than that of a tiger, almost 70 centimeters. Its two ears stand straight up. If the tail hadn't been curled upward, it would have looked no different from a wolf.

The Oroqen Hound is not large and is a medium-sized dog. Generally, the shoulder height is about 60 centimeters and the body is slender. The one in front of you is obviously the best among them.

Xiang Yunduan glanced at the talents and skills of this hound. As expected, it is no wonder that Huzi takes it seriously. It has a gold-level "King" talent, and also has a gold-level skill "Fighting", and the rest are silver. There are also many bronze talents and skills.

"..."

Next to him, the owner of the hound suddenly said something, but because he spoke the language of his nation, Xiang Yunduan didn't understand it.

Xiang Yunduan looked at Mo Rigen, who turned around and chatted with the dog owner for a few words, but the effect didn't seem to be very good.

After a while, Mo Rigen said to Xiang Yunduan: "Ashku said that Chabanmo can't do it. You can choose from other hounds, but Chabanmo can't do it!"

Ashku is the name of the dog owner, and Chabanmo is the name of the dog with golden talents and skills.

"That's such a shame!"

Xiang Yunduan said with a very sad look.

It's not easy to find someone who meets his requirements, but they won't let him go. He has no choice but to take away someone's favor. After all, they are a fishing and hunting people, and the importance of hunting dogs is self-evident.

"Then I'll look at something else!"

With that said, Xiang Yunduan continued to look at the other hounds.

This fellow Ashku man has a lot of hounds at home, including five or six adults and three small ones.

"what!"

Xiang Yunduan was originally very sorry that he couldn't get Cha Banmo, but he didn't expect to randomly scan the kennel and find another one that met his goal.

This is a puppy that has not yet reached adulthood. It looks to be six or seven months old. It is all white. It stays quietly in the kennel. It is neither noisy nor fussy. It is not interested in the confrontation between Huzi and Chabanmo. Very curious.

"Can I take this dog away?" Xiang Yunduan said, pointing to the white dog.

This is a small male dog. The reason why it attracts Xiang Yunduan's attention is not because it also has gold talent. In fact, this white dog's talent is only silver level, but the effect makes Xiang Yunduan very interested.

There are two silver talents in total, namely "spirituality" and "ethnic affinity".

Needless to say about spirituality, the effect of this group's affinity is simply not good - when teaching puppy skills, the effect increases by 100%!
What's this? This is simply a professor among dogs!

Xiang Yunduan has even begun to think in his heart, if he teaches this white dog first and then lets him teach other dogs during training, wouldn't it be more effective with half the effort?
Educating future generations is of course not the exclusive preserve of humans. Animals also need to educate future generations, otherwise how can they survive?

Moreover, compared to humans teaching animals, it is naturally easier and more efficient to teach skills to animals of the same ancestry.

After all, how can a dog teach a dog as well as a man can teach a dog?

Ashku saw Xiang Yun pointed at the white hound, his eyes flashed a few times, and he said a few more words.

Mo Rigen next to him also said a few words.

Xiang Yunduan didn't understand, but he could probably guess from the tone and expressions of the two people that this Ashku fellow didn't want to part with the white hound.

After a while, the exchange between the two came to an end, and Mo Rigen said to Xiang Yunduan: "Ashku said, you can take this white hound away!"

Ashku was actually unwilling. Although he didn't have Xiang Yunduan's ability to see the talents and skills of dogs, after all, he had been living with hounds day and night, and he could more or less see the strengths of these hounds.

Ashku attaches great importance to white hounds.

But he had already said before that he could choose the rest at will, so naturally he couldn't break his promise now.

I could only admire Xiang Yunduan with some reluctance: With such poisonous eyes, I can tell which dog is the best at a glance!
Xiang Yunduan took the white hound out and gave it a new name - Cangli!
Just because the dog's front page looks a bit like a fox.

Seeing Cangli follow Xiang Yunduan out obediently, Mo Rigen next to him was also very surprised.

He knew Ashku's ability to train hounds. The hounds he trained were very loyal and could not be led away by others. Even with Ashku's permission, this dog would not be like this moment. Cangli is so affectionate to Xiang Yunduan.

But he didn't know that the reason for this was because Xiang Yunduan had skills!

After a dog training expert becomes a gold-level skill, there is an additional effect - the deterrent effect on canines is increased by 100%!
