The ceo's secret

The farmer's family is a middle-aged couple. They are about 40 years old. Their children are all studying in the city. Therefore, there are only two of them living in the two-story building. The host quickly recognized Meng Ying and said hello to us in a warm and friendly way -

we ate authentic farm food for dinner. At noon in that high-end restaurant, I didn't eat much, but when I arrived at this farm, I didn't know whether I was hungry or whether the food was delicious. I had a big appetite and ate two bowls of rice.

The man's surname is Guo. He asked me to call him Lao Guo. I didn't care so much about his forthright posture, so I called him Lao Guo -

knowing that we are here for hunting, and after dinner, the man began to prepare hunting equipment. He also called another young man, a man in his twenties, who is from the same village and loves hunting. The host introduced him as Shi Lei, a famous sharpshooter -

Yes! We are going to fight turtledoves at night. Lao Guo said it's best to fight turtledoves in rainy days, because turtledoves always stay at the bottom of the bamboo grove in rainy days, instead of hiding on the top of the bamboo grove in sunny days -

we are ready to go. Lao Guo and Shi Lei get on a long-time van with a shotgun and necessary hunting items and lead the way. Meng Ying and I sit behind in Infiniti -

it's fast now It's eight o'clock in the night, the sky is dark, there are no stars and no moon, the surrounding area is dark, and it's very quiet -

when you look at the distance, you can only see the outline of the boundless rice fields, and you can only see the vague shape of the mountain ridges in the distance. There are people living at the foot of the mountain in the distance, and there are weak lights to show all this -

This reminds me of the sentence in Russian writer Bunin's Prose -

"winter is a boundless sea of snow, summer is a sea of crops, flowers and plants..." And the eternal silence of the field, and its mysterious silence... "

Yes! This is country night! Wutong, every act and every move, but

, but at the moment, I still have no idea that we are being followed. Perhaps, a dozen meters away from the rear of our car, there is a black Guangzhou Honda that has stopped under several Indus trees. The people in the car peep at me and dream of Yingying by holding out the dark fingers of the five fingers.

has set off! The hunting team is off!

Driving the expensive Infiniti sports car to hunt is really a luxury! What a good car it is! The interior design of the car is full of Japanese delicacy and luxury. The pointer quartz clock with the characteristics of Infiniti family is located in the center of the center console, emitting a strong oriental flavor. When night falls, the violet lighting in the car makes the whole car immersed in a romantic and mysterious atmosphere -

Mengying and I stay in this small closed space, in the violet lighting, There is a strange sentiment growing in the air -

I first broke this sentiment, I touched my nose and said with a smile: "Mengying, don't you call my family and say it?"

"Yes. Ming Ming. " Meng Ying turned to me and said with a smile, "when you were preparing for equipment just now, I was fighting in the yard."

I continued to touch my nose and said, "well, let me borrow your mobile phone again. I'll call Tongtong --"

the phone has been dialed --

I said: "Tongtong, I guess I won't be home until about 12 o'clock tonight --"

"where are you, brother?..." Gu Tong said on the other end of the mobile phone, the voice is very strange -

I said: "it's outside. Why ask so many questions? ——”

"you wait! Brother... " Gu Tong whispered at the end of the mobile phone, then the sound of running, then the sound of a door being closed -

"brother, where are you?..." Gu Tong said on the other end of the mobile phone.

I said, "in the country. What's the matter?... "

"Brother, sister-in-law is at home! She has been waiting for you to go home, and she hasn't eaten any food. She has been crying and her eyes are swollen Brother, why don't you go home? My sister-in-law is really sad. I've never seen her like this, brother... " Gu Tong said in a barrage.

My heart pained hard for a while, and my hand unconsciously pressed my heart. I said: "Gu Tong! After that, don't say the word "sister-in-law"!... "

"Brother! Why are you so heartless?!... " Gu Tong said on the other end of the mobile phone.

I couldn't listen any more. I just said in a cold voice, "I'm busy. Hang up first... "

After that, I hung up the call -

Meng Ying sat still in the driver's seat, looked ahead and didn't look at me, but I knew she was listening to me all the time -

I breathed quietly and put her mobile phone in her bag -

"can I play some music?" I looked up at Meng Ying and said with a smile.

Meng Ying turned and looked at me with a smile and said, "yes..." When she looked into my eyes, she seemed to find something in my eyes -

I lowered my eyes and reached out to open the music -

the soothing piano music once again covered the earth like moonlight, flowing quietly in the closed small space, decomposing the solidified atmosphere -

fortunately, with this piano music, otherwise they would not be able to sit so close together How uncomfortable it is to talk!After driving for more than ten minutes, the four wheeled vehicle couldn't go any further, because the road became too narrow to pass through the four wheeled vehicle -

we stopped the vehicle in the dark, got off to meet, and lit it with searchlights -

Lao Guo told us that there was a big bamboo forest on the hillside in front of us, but it was no longer purple bamboo, but Phyllostachys pubescens There are a lot of turtledoves in the forest -

Lao Guo also introduced the habit of this kind of turtledove, which usually inhabits in mountainous, piedmont or plain forest areas, and mainly gathers a few small groups at the edge of the forest, cultivated land and nearby areas. This kind of bird almost all over the country, a large number. In autumn and winter, they moved to the plain and often lived in groups with the Pearl necked turtledove. Flying like a dove, often gliding. The sound was monotonous and low. The vigilance is very high. They feed on sorghum, wheat seeds, rice and fruits, sometimes eat insect larvae, and often eat camphor seeds in winter. Nest built in the tree, generally 3-7 meters high from the ground, built with branches, simple structure.

We have seen the bamboo forest in front of us. It's really big. It's close to the foot of the mountain and the earth road below. The higher it goes, the higher the terrain is -

the bamboo is straight and high, forming a thick green barrier at the top, probably not even sunlight or even wind. If there is a strong wind, it can only blow the green ocean, which rises and falls like waves. Just like the bamboo forest in Ang Lee's martial arts movie crouching tiger, hidden dragon, it's just a green ocean -

of course, it's night now. You can't see the magnificent scenery of Chini. There's wind, but it's not big. But you can't blow the boundless green ocean. You can only hear the legend of bamboo forest To be honest, I'm not used to this quiet. I feel that the darkness and quietness between heaven and earth are strange and even weird -

the turtledove is a kind of migratory bird I am very familiar with, which is very common in the woods of our hometown, especially in the bamboo forest. In summer, many turtledoves can be seen foraging in the rice fields after harvesting -

the body of the turtledove is reddish brown, with blue gray head and white tail tip. They forage on the ground and eat a lot of small seeds. They also sound like pigeons, cooing. They are gentle and not good at nesting. Their eggs often fall from the nest.

The spots under the neck of the Pearl necked turtledove are pearl like, with pear like spots. Occasionally, we see fire turtledoves.

Each of the three men had an air gun in his hand and a small bag of bullets in his pocket. The bullets were silver particles with a diameter of only 4.5 mm. A bullet cost about two or three cents. It's OK to shoot turtledoves with this kind of bullet. Usually the bullet goes in from the belly of the bird, goes through the viscera and goes out from the opposite side. It's not suitable to shoot a hare. One shot can't bring down any hare.

Even if you shoot turtledoves, if you don't aim well, they may escape after being shot. Hit the belly, or hit the head, and it works.

Shi Lei doesn't like to talk, but Lao Guo said that he is very good at his technique. He usually shoots a hundred shots at the head, and sometimes kills two birds with one stone. That is to say, one bullet shoots down two turtledoves at the same time -

Lao Guo told us that turtledoves sleep on bamboo branches at night, usually two together, standing beside the simple nest made of their branches -

The last time Meng Ying came to fight is Songjie, but she is very curious about the turtledove sleeping standing like a horse and two turtledoves sleeping together under normal circumstances -

"do they appear in pairs like mandarin ducks?" She looked up at me and said, in fact, she was asking Lao Guo.

Lao Guo looked back and answered in a very general way: "almost."

In many cases. Villagers usually only know this phenomenon, but they don't know the explanation behind it. Lao Guo knows very well that turtledoves usually sleep on bamboo branches in pairs at night, but he doesn't necessarily know why they do this? I think that seems to be the reason why he gave such a general answer.

But Meng Ying asked this out of curiosity, or out of a kind of answer she expected -

so I raised my hand to touch my nose, looked at her and said with a smile: "since they are husband and wife, it's not normal for them to sleep together? Ha ha - "

" how do you know they are husband and wife? " Meng Ying asked.

I said with a smile, "it's very simple. If they are not husband and wife, why should they stay together in pairs? Isn't that illegal cohabitation? ——”

my words made Lao Guo and Shi Lei laugh -

Meng Ying bowed her head and did not speak, because she could not see her expression clearly. I wonder if she was blushing? ——
