Chapter 528 What a Big Cauliflower Snake (33)

"Mom, I went uphill!"

"Hey, you go, remember to see how the corn seedlings are growing?"

"understood!!"

After lunch, Zhang Feng talked to his mother, and drove towards the back mountain.

The three-wheel drive on the gravel road is a bit bumpy, but the scenery along the way is very beautiful.

The vast mountain plains are lined with green trees, wild flowers blooming on the roadside adorn the earth, and the breeze blows gently, full of fragrant breath.

Colorful butterflies are flying, bees are flying, these cute elves are happily shuttled among the flowers, picking delicious nectar, and their industrious appearance is really fascinating.

"Meaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

Just as Zhang Feng stopped the car, Dabai Xiaobai ran towards Zhang Feng excitedly, with short legs and a round body, his appearance was really cute.

"Hehe, Dabai and Xiaobai, you've worked hard!!" Zhang Feng hugged the two fools, rubbed their heads, and said with a smile.

"Baa baa!!" Xiaobai was still eating grass, and when he heard the master's praise, he immediately squinted his eyes and showed a cute smile.

"Okay, okay, hurry up and graze, remember to go home before dark, you know?"

The cute lamb showed a humane expression, nodded obediently, then turned around and ran to the orchard of the second uncle’s house to continue their weeding journey. The green grass here is a gluttonous feast for them .

"Xiaofeng is here?" Hearing the movement, the second uncle looked up and saw that it was Zhang Feng, so he greeted him with a smile.

"Second uncle, you haven't gone back to eat yet?" Zhang Feng also asked with a smile.

"Hehe, soon, let's go here after finishing work!" Although Dabai Xiaobai was helping the grass in the field, the old man was still worried, and he had to follow along to be at ease.

Passing a cigarette to the second uncle, the two chatted a few more words, and Zhang Feng walked towards his cornfield.

This year, Zhang Feng's family doesn't grow much corn. Half of it is the waxy corn he eats at home, and the other half is Gaoyi No. 1, which is a ration specially prepared for small animals at home.

"Well, the growth is not bad!!"

Seeing the green corn seedlings, Zhang Feng nodded in relief, and it was not in vain for him to spend so much effort, and Yiyi's help.

The corn seedlings in the field are already about ten centimeters long. The scarlet stalks and slender green leaves look so pleasing. There are three or four seedlings in each nest. It seems that the germination rate is really good.

But farmers who have grown corn know that the more corn in each nest, the better. It is just right to keep two corn plants in each nest, so that the corn can have sufficient nutrients and the cobs will grow big and good.

In the past, some people were reluctant to pull out the redundant corn seedlings. They felt that it was a pity. They wanted to keep the redundant corn seedlings so that they could grow a few more corns when they grew up. Unfortunately, the final result can be imagined. Every corn plant They are all thin and short, and the corn cobs are like bananas, and the production has been severely reduced.

Even if there are seven or eight corns in one litter, the final yield is still not as much as the three or four corns of other people's homes.

Therefore, from planting corn, you can also understand the truth of life, you can only gain if you give up, and there is a lot of knowledge in choosing and giving up.

Most of the corn seedlings on half an acre of land were quickly pulled out by Zhang Feng. According to the natural law of high eugenicity, the remaining ones were thick and strong. Such corn seedlings can only bear fruit when they grow up. out of the best corn.

"Oh!! Xiaofeng, come here!"

Suddenly, the second uncle's exclamation sounded from the foot of the mountain.

"What's wrong, Second Uncle??"

As Zhang Feng asked, he ran towards the second uncle.

"Snake, what a big snake!!" The second uncle shouted to Zhang Feng in surprise.

Zhang Feng ran to take a closer look, hey!Good guy, a cauliflower snake as thick as a child's arm is sitting on a big rock in the orchard of the second uncle's house, probably basking in the sun.

In fact, snakes are also afraid of humans. Seeing Zhang Feng and the two, the snake got up quickly and was about to run away.

Zhang Feng had quick eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed its tail with one hand, and struck out with lightning with the other hand, grabbed the cauliflower snake's neck, and pinched its head tightly, making it unable to move.

"Good guy, I haven't seen such a big snake for many years!" The second uncle was already shocked.

After catching the cauliflower snake, Zhang Feng had time to look it over carefully. The snake was about [-] meters long, the thickest part should be five or six centimeters, and it weighed at least two or three catties.

"Hehe, this snake meat is a good thing. It's a great supplement. In the past, people often came to the village to collect it!" The second uncle said with a smile.

Zhang Feng also knows that when he was a child, his father caught one and sold it for 20 yuan at that time. With the money, his father bought two catties of pork belly and made a big bowl of sauerkraut for everyone. Well, in those few days, everyone was very happy and very happy.

"Forget it, it's not easy seeing it grow so big, let it go!"

In the end, Zhang Feng still decided to release it back into the forest. If it was a poisonous snake, Zhang Feng would definitely not let it go just like that. The possibility of killing it secretly is higher, because in Zhang Feng's view, human safety is the most important thing. As for To protect animals or something, you can only protect yourself by the way if you don't threaten yourself.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter if you let it go, this thing is also good at catching mountain rats, lest the rats harm the crops in the field."

There are quite a few mice in the mountains. Although they are rarely seen in normal times, you can always see signs of being bitten by them every year when the grain is ripe.

Even sweet potatoes and peanuts buried in the soil cannot escape their poisonous hands.

"Okay, let's go quickly, don't come out to scare people, you know?"

Talking to the second uncle, Zhang Feng took the cauliflower snake to a barren mountain, where there are few people, and the little kids in the village often come here to play, so putting the snake in this mountain should not scare the children .

Besides, the cauliflower snake is a non-venomous snake, and even if it is encountered by children, it will not be dangerous, and it will only hurt for a few days if it is bitten.

That's why Zhang Feng released it without the slightest psychological burden, unlike those idiots who released the faithful men and women indiscriminately, and it didn't matter what animal was released, where it was, whether it would affect the surrounding residents, and whether the animal could be here Survive.

What they want is the reputation of releasing lives, just for show, to solve disasters and relieve their inner fears.

From Zhang Feng's point of view, these people have done too many bad things and are just guilty of thieves, and they are not good people at all.

"Xiaofeng, I'm going back first!"

"Second uncle, go slowly!!"

Zhang Feng smiled and waved goodbye to the second uncle.

After the second uncle left, Zhang Feng went into the orchard to check the growth of the fruit.

Today is mid-April, and the peaches in the orchard are growing very fast, they are already the size of quail eggs, and it is estimated that they will gradually mature in about a week.

The ripening time of plums is later, it is estimated that there are still about half a month.

Seeing peaches and plums all over the mountain, Zhang Feng was also very happy, and his face was full of smiles along the way.
