Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 99 Fox Hunting
Ou Chen led the horse and followed Mr. Zhang, and the two chatted and walked to the chicken farm.

At this time, the sheep and cattle are returning, and under the afterglow of the setting sun, everything in the entire ranch is covered with a layer of golden yellow.He squinted his eyes to see Liang Fei who was having a good time in the distance and the red rabbit carrying Su Mu to have fun; The cooking smoke brought an indescribable faint smell of rice, and the peaceful and beautiful pastoral scenery made Ou Chen feel infinitely peaceful.

After traveling to countless places and seeing all kinds of beautiful scenery, this is the first time that he has a feeling of returning to nature.

As Mr. Zhang said just now, Huatanao is a magical place. I am afraid that after living in it for a few days, I will really be reluctant to leave!
"It's really coming this time, it's really fun to run!" When it was getting dark, Liang Fei rode back on his horse with a lot of enthusiasm.

Su Mu rolled over from the horse's back, then patted the red rabbit running happily and said with a smile: "If Brother Fei likes horseback riding, he can go for a walk around the racecourse another day, where the terrain is flat and running is more enjoyable. Ou Shao, my ranch It’s not bad, right? Most of the ingredients for today’s dinner are products from farms and ranches, but there are no chefs here, it’s just ordinary home cooking, so don’t hold it against you.”

"Look at what Brother Su said, there are a lot of high-quality dishes in restaurants, and home-cooked dishes are the most difficult to make good taste." Ou Chen smiled and handed over the rein, and asked, "I heard Mr. Zhang said that at night Fox hunting, can we join in the fun?"

Su Mu heard what Liang Dayong said when he passed the chicken farm just now, so he naturally knew that they were planning to catch the fox tonight.

He himself also wanted to see the kung fu of this good hunter, since Ou Chen mentioned it at this time, he nodded and said: "If Ou Shao is interested, let's stay in the ranch tonight, and call my dad later Just send a few quilts here."

"Muzi, are you coming at night?" Liang Dayong was busy helping to pack up the food, and after listening to their discussion about staying in the ranch, he took up the conversation and said, "Then you go to bed early after dinner, and I will take you when the fox is hunted." Scream! The last time I entered the mountain, I failed to let you see my hunting skills, and tonight will definitely open your eyes!"

Ou Chen and Liang Fei were very excited when they heard the words. They didn't expect to encounter such a good thing as hunting on the first day they came to Huatanao, so they naturally agreed and prepared to join in the fun.

The dinner prepared by the ranch is very rich.

In addition to home-cooked dishes such as steamed egg custard and ground delicacies, Liang Dayong also specially made two beggar chickens; plus stewed beef with potatoes, roasted leg of lamb, etc. table.

This time, the beggar chickens are pure free-range roosters from chicken farms. Although the taste is not as fragrant as pheasant, it is rare and delicious compared to ordinary chicken.

Even Ou Chen and Liang Fei ate their stomachs unceremoniously.

At the end, Liang Fei drank the last bowl of soup contentedly, leaned comfortably on the kang cabinet and lit a cigarette for himself.

Still holding his mouth crookedly in his signature gesture, he hiccupped and said with a smile: "Brother Su, this place is really a treasure trove of geomantic omen, if you ask me, these home-cooked dishes are a hundred times more delicious than the ones we make in the back kitchen for half a day! Hurry up tomorrow, prepare some ingredients, I am also addicted to cooking! The air here is so cool at night, let’s get some meat kebabs for dinner tomorrow, and a few bottles of beer, tsk tsk, it’s so beautiful!"

"That's not easy? Let's go to the farm early tomorrow morning to visit, and then you can pick whatever you want; the cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese on the pasture are almost grown, and they can be slaughtered and eaten at any time. You can cook whatever you want If you want to eat barbecue, you have to go to a quiet place by the Peach Blossom River, where you can eat meat and drink to see the beautiful scenery, that would be enjoyable!" Su Mu was so full and lazy, he leaned on the kang and drank the freshly made wine. Good boiling tea for digestion.

If you want to eat and have fun in Huatanao, no one has experience in sumu.

The villagers have relatively little experience, so how can they understand these petty bourgeoisie games? Everyone else has their own busy work, but he, the hands-off shopkeeper, is the most leisurely and leisurely. From the perspective of eating, drinking and having fun, he can be regarded as a decathlon.

Hearing that they were going to live in the ranch, Su Mu's father drove a pioneer to bring a few bedding and some daily necessities, and he helped them lay the bedding, told them to pay attention to safety, and then left.

Ever since An Lu began to run extra-curricular cram schools in the village to teach cultural knowledge to the villagers in Huatanao, the extra-curricular classes have been warmly welcomed.

Even Su Mu's father and mother are actively learning English. He has made great progress in his studies recently, and he is so focused on watching English movies that he doesn't follow them to join in the fun and hunt with a group of young people.

Heihu and Big Hui naturally wanted to participate in the hunt, so Mr. Zhang specially rewarded them both with the stewed meat soup they had prepared after dinner.

These two dogs are smart and obedient. They guard the ranch at night and help herd cattle and sheep during the day. They can be regarded as one of the great heroes of the ranch.That's why the people living in the ranch like to give them a small stove. Even Liang Dayong likes to share some benefits with them after he goes hunting hares in the mountains when he has nothing to do.

A group of people who were going to participate in the evening fox hunt went to rest early after dinner, but Mr. Zhang and the others, who were elderly, drank tea and set up a game of cards on the kang to pass the time.

The ranch is only connected to electricity, and the TV has not been used yet. Fortunately, the elderly are not very obsessed with TV, and they are content to have a game of poker to kill time.

Su Mu lay down on the kang and slept until midnight.

After being called out by Liang Dayong a few times, he came to his senses with a jolt, and hurriedly got up from the kang to put on his clothes;
Ou Chen and Liang Fei, who were soundly asleep, were also woken up. The two of them became clear for a moment, and immediately seized the time to crawl out of the bed.

The moon outside was just right, and the bright and quiet moonlight sprinkled on the earth, making the green grass green.

The wind was a bit chilly, Su Mu wrapped his clothes tightly as soon as he went out, and then looked in the direction of the chicken coop.His eyes are not myopic at all now, and under the extra bright moonlight, he can clearly see the situation around the quiet chicken coop.

The night wind made the grass rustle, but it was very quiet around the neat row of chicken coops, as if there was no sign of an attack.

"It's so cold at night. How can there be foxes here? Does that thing protect animals? Can it be beaten?" Liang Fei just crawled out of the hot bed, and shrank his neck hard in the cool wind.

Ou Chen was much more sober than him, looking at Liang Dayong with a curious expression on the crossbow in his hand.

"Isn't it just a few foxes? If there's anything you can do to fight them. If they are in the deep mountains, I won't get in trouble with them. Now I'm so brave that I dare to pinch chickens. See if I don't give them some color." Look!" Liang Dayong doesn't care about protecting animals or not, in his eyes, he can hunt anything that dares to harm chickens and ducks!

"Uncle Dayong, why don't we catch the live ones? The fox's fur is very good. It would be a pity if it was killed." With his scanning function activated, Su Mu had "seen" that the chicken coop was not far away. In the grass at the place, there are a few spooky guys ambushing, presumably they must be foxes who are thinking about chicken coops again.

However, in view of the high domestication rate of foxes, and I want to expand the breeding range of Huatanao, it should be a good choice to capture them and raise them.

"If you want to catch someone alive, then my crossbow bolts will be useless. If you want to die alive, I will listen to you." Liang Dayong had already prepared the crossbow bolts when he heard that he wanted to catch people alive. Yes, immediately prepare the second-hand plan.

Liang Fei felt somewhat regretful.

Hearing that he was going to hunt, he had thought about it, but Su Mu was going to catch another job at the moment, so it seemed that he had no chance to practice with crossbow arrows.

"Brother Su is right, try not to kill the ones that can be caught alive. The fur of wild foxes is very expensive. If they can be raised in captivity, they will definitely be able to grow high-quality and good fur in the Huatanao environment. Everyone has earned a lot of foreign exchange." On the contrary, Ou Chen immediately understood Su Mu's thoughts, and pondered: "It's just that foxes are very cunning, and it's still a question of whether they can catch them alive. If it doesn't work, you can find someone who raises foxes The farm spends money to buy some little fox cubs to raise."

Liang Dayong didn't understand what he said about "earning foreign exchange" at all, but since Su Mu said that he wanted to catch jobs, he fully supported it.

In addition, he doesn't even know who these two young people are, and the other party's opinion naturally cannot influence Liang Dayong, so while Ou Chen was speaking, he had already withdrawn the feather arrow, and was about to implement the second set of fox hunting plan .

"No matter how cunning a fox is, it can't beat a good hunter. Hehe, this is the word Teacher An taught me." He rubbed his hands with a silly smile, and said to Su Mu, "Those foxes are lying in ambush near the chicken coop. You need to use some tricks. The three of you bring the big gray, and the bird quietly goes around from the right. Remember to make a big circle, otherwise it will be easy to be spotted by them.

These things are too fucking cunning, if you know we are in ambush, it will be difficult to find a chance to catch them. "

Liang Dayong made temporary and simple arrangements, and after he was done, he took the black tiger and walked quietly towards the chicken coop.

Su Mu, Liang Fei and Ou Chen led Big Hui, and made a circle as big as possible, approaching the back of several foxes.

In fact, with his current scanning ability, it would be easy to catch all the foxes hiding in the grass and bring them into the space, but Su Mu didn't want to use this ability.

Firstly, the income space is just a backup plan that can’t be caught alive; secondly, he wants to use Liang Da to catch foxes for breeding. After all, the fawns and silly roe deer in the space haven’t had a chance to be released for breeding. If you don't get it out at the right time, the space will become a zoo.

"Brother Su, when can we act?" Liang Fei, who was about two meters away from Su Mu, looked towards the chicken coop curiously for a while, the surroundings were still abnormally quiet, he asked in a low voice a little bit impatiently.

The three of them led a dog, and it only took about [-] minutes to go around the big circle and quietly ambush a few foxes in the circle.At this time, under Su Mu's scanning ability, he could clearly sense that Liang Dayong had finished working at the air outlet of the chicken coop. As for when to act, it would depend on when the foxes in the grass attacked the chicken coop!
