Chapter 301
Cows walk very slowly. If someone has never seen a cow walk, you can try to walk like a walk. Don’t think that this speed is a cow’s walk. A cow walks a few beats slower than a human walk.

The cattle walk very slowly, but the cattle driver is not slow at all, because you have to run with your own horse, running forward and backward, and controlling the progress of the entire herd.

If there are calves in the herd, it will be even more busy.

A calf is like a bear child in a herd of cattle. It has just been born for one or two months, or it is almost like a child of about three or four years old. At this time, the child is called the age when cats dislike dogs, and this The same goes for the Mavericks in their age group.

However, a calf is different from a calf. They are both cows, but their personalities may be very different. Some calves are timid and follow closely beside the cow, not daring to leave for a moment.

Such calves are the most pleasing to the cowboys, because they do not bring extra work to the cowboys.

What I am most afraid of is the special calf, the kind who is so focused on going out that he can't come back even if he shouts.

Now Zhang Chi has met such a calf. The Maverick family just doesn't want to be with the herd, and will run out whenever there is an opportunity.

It doesn't do anything else when it goes out, but it likes to run away from the herd, but not leave the herd.

Zhang Chi has a way to deal with such a black sheep.

Pulling out the lasso on the saddle, Zhang Chi finally displayed the technique that he had practiced for nearly a year under the guidance of Cannon.

The lasso threw a standard oval ring over Zhang Chi's head, and after unfolding, it covered the calf's head.

Maverick doesn't have much experience. When he saw something falling from his head, the little guy opened his eyes wide and looked up.

Seeing that this thing was about to fall on his head, he thought of running.

But at this time, can you run in a hurry?That must be blind!

The little guy didn't bark yet, he just kicked his hind legs like this, trying to fight Zhang Chi with his neck stuck.

"Little thing, it's pretty cool!"

Zhang Chi said something with a smile, but his hands didn't stop when he spoke, and he tied one end of the noose to the saddle.

Chi Yanshan also practiced at this time, seeing his master's lasso fell on the calf's head, it immediately stood still, and kept adjusting its body, stretching the lasso straight, It is impossible for a calf trapped in this way to escape anyway.

Zhang Chi turned over and got off the horse, quickly ran to the calf's side, hugged the calf's neck directly, exerted force on his waist, twisted his arm, and directly overturned the calf on the ground with the strength of his waist and hips. on the ground.

Moo!
Only then did the little thing know howling.

The calf's cry instantly made the cow anxious. The cow didn't want to let the calf be so naive, but the cow couldn't help it. It created a trouble for itself. What can the cow do?

The calf wanted to run, but the cow couldn't help it, and the cow didn't have hands. If it had hands, a little calf like this would have been whipped by the cow many times.

Every time the cow saw a calf about to run out of the herd, she would bark, but the calf ignored her, and her last resort was to bark twice.

Although there was no way to take the calf, when the calf was brought down by Zhang Chi, the cow still wanted to rush up immediately to protect her child.

Just when the cow wanted to come over, the two tigers stood between Zhang Chi and the cow, and at this time Chi Yanshan also came over, and it pointed its hip at the cow. If he dares to get close to its owner, his two big hind hoofs will make this cow look good.

Not to mention the addition of Chiyan Mountain, even if it is the Erhu, the cow is afraid. I don’t know why, it may be because of herbivorous and carnivorous instincts, let the cow face the Erhu and its mouth full of canines. , stopped.

Moo!Moo!
The cows are trying to call the herd to come and help.

It's a pity that none of the cows in the herd dared to come up to help at this moment.

Zhang Chi, who caught the calf, has no malice towards the calf. Such a small thing can't be eaten, and it can't be thrown away. How can it be money to raise it.

Whether Guan Jian is this little thing or a heifer, how much wealth does it have to create for the ranch?
So Zhang Chi just tied it up, and then whipped it a few times with the tail of the noose, and then released the calf, and the cow led it back to the herd.

For such a skinny child, you say the truth a thousand times, but it is better to beat him up and give him a complete childhood.

Take care of the calves and the herd moves on.

Cows walk slowly, and they stop from time to time. These guys don’t drive all the time. They eat while walking, regardless of whether you are in a hurry or not.

Originally, it took half a day to travel, but now it seems that it will take at least two days to go back.

There was no way around this, and the three of them had to drive with a little care.

"Hello!"

Just when Zhang Chi and the others were driving the cattle to cross an open belt, suddenly there was a shout from the hill on the left.

Zhang Chi turned his head and saw four or three people dressed in cowboys coming towards him from the top of the hill.

Zhang Chi suddenly felt a little nervous, but when he saw who the person came, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, because the person who came was a rancher in the town, and his relationship with Zhang Chi was not good, and he couldn't talk about it. It's not good if you don't go up, it's just an ordinary neighbor relationship, nodding and saying hello when you meet.

Cannon also saw who was coming, he smiled and waited for the group of people to come.

Cannon has worked on this ranch before, and it is generally quite pleasant, so now that we meet each other, everyone can greet him sincerely.

"George, your luck is really good. You found such a large herd so quickly. I guess this is the largest known herd now, right?".

Originally, the two didn't have much contact with each other, but now Zhang Chi's herd of cattle suddenly made the relationship between the two of them seem to have improved a lot in an instant.

Zhang Chi could feel the enthusiasm of this man when he spoke.

"I don't know, I'm really lucky. When it comes to finding cows, I'm really far behind the average cowboy..."

Zhang Chi didn't know what to say to this guy, but he praised us, so let's be humble.

Americans are not so humble, but now many Americans know that Chinese people have the habit of being polite when they are praised, so when these Americans praise you, they don’t mind hearing you being polite. If you look at you with an Asian face, but you are not humble and think you are not enough.

It doesn't matter if you really meet Chinese people, but it's not a good taste for Japanese and Korean people.

This shows that Americans have paid attention to some Chinese culture and no longer ignore it.

This guy actually has nothing to talk about with Zhang Chi. Zhang Chi is only very old, and his grandson is only two or three years younger than Zhang Chi. It would be a bit strange if we could talk about this age difference.

So after being polite with Zhang Chi, this one talked to Cannon.

He didn't say anything else, he just asked about the cow. As a rancher, he didn't ask Cannon where the cow was found.

Asking this question is equivalent to asking a gold digger, where is the river where you pan for gold?

A few people are very envious of Zhang Chi's cattle. When they look at the cattle, their eyes are full of light. It is a pity that these cattle do not belong to them, and they have no intentions. They all live in the same town. If you open it, you can't really kill people and seize cattle.

These people are dragging their families, and they really can't do the work of desperadoes.

The whole process only took five or six minutes, and everyone didn't want to delay too much here. The three of Zhang Chi wanted to drive the cattle home, and these people wanted to go to the mountains to make a fortune.

As soon as the people left, the herd continued to move forward.

Brian said to Cannon at this time: "Cannon, let's take the avenue, and now we have changed to a trail, and we haven't avoided people at all!"

The three of them were driving the cattle. At the beginning, for safety reasons, they naturally chose some trails that were less traveled by.

Now that everyone is really walking on the trail, they find that the trail did not allow us to avoid people. Not only did they not avoid people, but they have encountered two groups of people since they set off.

You may feel that it is nothing to meet two groups of people. Is it strange to meet two groups of people when so many people enter the mountain?

In fact, the probability of this is quite low. For such a big mountain, everyone’s route to the mountain is different. It’s like sailing a boat in the sea. You may be separated by a few kilometers, and you don’t know how close you are to yourself. There was another ship in the distance.

This is even more so in the forest, because the line of sight in the forest is mostly not wide, as long as it is quiet enough, even if the two teams are only [-] to [-] meters away, the two teams will not know each other's existence .

As for barking with the dog, the dog will not have much time to shut up when it enters the forest. Any animal may arouse their curiosity or vigilance.

Cannon thought for a moment, then looked at Zhang Chi from a distance.

Zhang Chi listened and nodded his head: "Forget it, let's pick the big road, this small road is really full of people!"

The time of the day has not yet come, and I have met two groups of people. If this continues, it will not be long before I come out to look for cattle in Amber Town, and I may be able to meet them all.

Seeing that Zhang Chi had made a decision, Cannon adjusted the direction of the cow, and it took about an hour from the difficult path to the easier path.

If you say it’s easy to go, there is naturally no road. If you open a road in the forest, it will be beautiful as you think.

There is no road on this route, but there are many tall trees, almost all of which are tens of meters high. Under these trees, there is almost no way for shrubs to survive, and the gap between the two trees is also large, so Walking is smoother.

Another point is that without low water, it is not easy for the cows to eat. It saves the time for the cows to eat grass, and it is naturally faster to concentrate on walking than when grazing.

Of course, these speeds are nothing more than a few wins. In fact, they are not so fast, that is, five kilometers per hour has been replaced by six or seven kilometers per hour.

It seems that the speed has been increased by more than 10%, but in fact... Forget it, don't say anything, let's continue to drive the cattle!
