Chapter 281 The Call of the Wild(1/2)
That evening, on the way home from school after picking up Wang Zhenzhen, Chen Ling heard movement in the rice field. Along with the shaking of the corn stalks, there was also a strange "squeaking" sound.
The movement was quite big.
Just as he was wondering, Wang Zhenzhen shouted excitedly: "Monkey, brother-in-law, look, the monkey is stealing grain inside."
"Good guy, it's true. The wild boars have been driven away, and the monkeys have come again."
Chen Ling lowered his head and took a look at the gap between the corn stalks, and was immediately happy.
I saw a group of wild monkeys running back and forth in the rice field, busy stealing corn, peeling off the skin and gnawing at the same time. At the same time, there were monkeys fighting with each other for corn cobs, squeaking and screaming.
"This is the farmland of Third Aunt's house. I'm going to drive away the monkeys."
Wang Zhenzhen took a closer look and immediately recognized that it was Wang Lihui's family's rice dumpling. She played well with Wang Lihui's daughter. Wang Lihui's mother, the third aunt, often gave her food. She couldn't ignore this.
.
He quickly got out of the back seat of his bicycle, picked up a few pieces of trash from the roadside, and threw them at the wild monkeys in the rice field.
"Get out of here, get out of here quickly, if you dare to go down the mountain to steal the grain again, I will shoot you to death with a gun."
She threw it away while stamping her feet and shouting, trying to scare the monkeys away.
But this wild monkey is easy to offend.
Not only did they not scare them away, but when they saw that there were only two people on the dirt road, Wang Zhenzhen and Chen Ling, they relied on the strength of their numbers, and their nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong was instantly exposed.
When they came down, all the corn cobs were thrown at the two of them.
"Damn, these stinky monkeys."
Chen Ling reacted quickly. When he saw the wild monkeys throwing corn cobs into their mouths, he pulled Wang Zhenzhen behind him and raised his hands to protect his head to ward off the corn cobs.
"Zhizhizhi..."
But at this time, when the wild monkeys saw that they, one large and one small, seemed to have no ability to fight back, they ran out of the corn cobs with more ferocious squeaks and screams. They actually smashed the corn cobs in their hands and wanted to come up and continue to tickle them.
.
What a bunch of annoying wild monkeys.
Fortunately, Chen Ling's body was very strong, with rough skin and thick flesh. If someone else had let someone else hit him with this corn cob, he might have done something good.
He just felt a little pain.
When he saw a wild monkey, he dared to rush towards him. He was so angry that he pulled out a pole from the front of his bicycle with a clang, swung it into a round shape and swiped it at the monkey that rushed towards him.
"You stupid wild monkey, get out of here."
He was so strong, and when he was so angry, he refused to stop. He swept the pole over, and the monkeys that were jumping up and down suddenly fell into a row. They were rolling on the ground, grinning in pain and screaming wildly.
This time, they were really frightened. They covered their heads, screamed, and fled into the rice field with their long tails raised, escaping very fast.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, are you okay?"
Wang Zhenzhen was so frightened that his face turned pale and he tugged at his clothes.
The little girl obviously didn't expect that throwing away a few pieces of rubbish would actually make these wild monkeys furious.
"I'm fine. Remember not to provoke wild monkeys when you see them when playing outside. Even if they steal grain and eat some fruit, it's okay. Don't worry about it. This thing has a bad temper and will hurt you if you get angry."
Chen Ling patted the little girl's head and warned her.
Monkeys are different from wild boars. They have no shortage of wild fruits to eat in the mountains.
I came down the mountain to steal corn, just because I smelled the sweet smell of young corn and couldn't help but get greedy, so I ran down the mountain.
They can eat very little of the corn in their stomachs. They take a few bites to taste the fresh sweetness and then leave. It has no destructive power.
Moreover, if you lose one after eating, people can still pick it up when they reach the crop fields.
Therefore, when there are few people and nothing to do, if you encounter wild monkeys, it is better not to provoke them.
Otherwise, wild monkeys are very evil-minded and like to bully children in the village, and can easily scratch people.
"Oh, I see..."
Wang Zhenzhen nodded obediently.
"Okay, let's get in the car and let's go home for dinner."
Chen Ling put the pole back in, pushed it into the car, and asked the little girl to get on.
Fortunately, I brought a pole and a hoe with me today, otherwise it would be inconvenient to get something from the cave, and it would be difficult to drive away these wild monkeys.
Most of the time people here use a carrying pole to defend themselves on the road.
But there is a mystery to this shoulder pole.
It is two turns thinner than a regular shoulder pole, and one end of the shoulder pole is round and can be inserted into the knife slot.
When the hoe is inserted upward, it transforms into a large knife with a handle.
It is useful for preventing wolves and bandits.
Because recently there have been an endless stream of wild things on the mountain. There are more badgers than in previous years, more wild boars than in previous years, and even leopards have appeared.
Therefore, the family was not willing to let Wang Cunye take Wang Zhenzhen to school anymore.
This job still fell to Chen Ling.
But he was afraid that he would not be safe alone on the road, so his family asked him to bring this thing with him.
The shoulder pole is carried on the big bar of the 28 big bar, and the hoe is tied to the diagonal bar below the big bar. When something happens, just pull it out.
…
Not far after I got on the bike, I heard a familiar and angry barking from a place not far from Baomi Di beside the road.
Soon, there was a chaos of barking dogs and frightened monkeys.
"Is it Hei Wa? Didn't I let him patrol the mountains? Why did he come here?"
Chen Ling turned his head and glanced in that direction in confusion.
Wang Zhenzhen also turned his head and looked over, and then said: "This must be Hei Wa knowing that the wild monkeys bullied us and came to avenge us."
While the two were talking, the corn stalks in the rice field swayed with a crackling sound, and Hei Wa majestically emerged from it covered with grass leaves.
He soon caught up to the car, sticking out his big tongue and barking to claim credit from Chen Ling.
"Brother-in-law, look, there are monkey hairs in Heiwa's mouth. He must have taken revenge on us."
When Wang Zhenzhen saw the monkey hair around Heiwa's mouth and the white teeth with blood stains, he sat in the back seat of the car and clapped his hands happily.
He looked relieved that a great revenge had been avenged.
"Okay, that's good. You have a good conscience. I'll give you two extra meals of meat when I go back."
Chen Ling glanced at Hei Wa with a smile, thinking in her heart that this idiot must have been bored while patrolling the mountains and ran down the mountain to play secretly.
Otherwise it wouldn't have come so quickly.
However, I finally knew how to let them vent their anger, so I stopped training them.
Unexpectedly, even though he didn't pursue Hei Wa, this fool didn't know what to do and secretly sneaked down the mountain for the next two days.
It doesn't bother Xiao Jin anymore.
It was Lao Feng who ran down the mountain into the rice field in the village and was caught by Chen Ling.
I trained it on the spot and tied it with an iron chain when I got home.
As a result, during the day of the next day, this stupid thing made a lot of noise at home because Chen Ling did not untie it.
Even if Chen Ling went over and beat it, it wouldn't work.
It's like if you don't let me go, I'll make trouble all the time.
"Okay, okay, I'll let you go. I don't care about you anymore. You can go wherever you like."
Chen Ling was so annoyed by it that he untied the iron chain and let it go.
In the end, he let go of his hand, and this idiot really didn't care anymore, and hurriedly ran out with his head down.
No one was seen all morning, let alone patrolling the mountain to guard the chickens and ducks.
It wasn't until two or three o'clock in the afternoon that I sneaked back to the mountain.
I saw Chen Ling picking eggs on the mountain.
The fool immediately shook his head and tail, turned his ears behind his back, squinted his eyes, and slowly and tentatively walked up to him, trying his best to please him.
The tree you plant knows whether to grow straight or not.
Of course, Chen Ling also knew the virtues of his own dog.
One look at its guilty look, and you knew it was definitely up to something bad.
"It hasn't bothered Xiao Jin anymore in the past two days. It's not like he found another dog outside."
Wang Susu said while holding her son.
Next to her, Gao Xiulan was holding a fan to drive away mosquitoes, and Wang Cunye was holding a rat toy that made noise when pinched, dangling it around.
