Chapter 151: Catching the Monkey at Night

Today, Canghai is playing Shen Teng's old film, "Charlotte's Troubles", which was very popular a few years ago, and a group of villagers watched it with relish while knocking melon seeds, and let out a burst of laughter from time to time.

I was watching Lehe, and suddenly a voice broke the lively atmosphere.

"Look, what did I find?" Wei Wenkui said happily as he stood at the back of the crowd and came up from the slope at some point.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Wei Wenkui, looking at the straw hat in his hand, the brim of the straw hat was slanted to the side of the crowd, it was obvious that the straw hat was what Wei Wenkui wanted to show everyone.

Liu Aifen said with a smile: "I said Wen Kui, you were the most active in watching movies before, why did you only arrive after half of the movies today?"

"Let me see, won't you have picked up the dog's head gold?" Li Liren was closest to Wei Wenkui, stood up from the bench and stretched out his head to look into Wei Wenkui's hat.

"What did I say, didn't I just know the monkey, what's so strange about this thing?" Li Liren glanced at it, then turned around and sat back on the stool.

Wei Wenkui said: "There is nothing strange about the monkey, but let me tell you, I caught it from seven or eight trees, don't you think it's strange?"

There are almost thirty monkeys in Wei Wenkui's hat, and if they are caught in a few trees, it is equivalent to several in one tree, which is quite dense.

Hearing Wei Wenkui say this, the big guys all stood up and gathered around Wei Wenkui, and someone couldn't stop asking, "How many trees are there?"

"No, I went to catch it two days ago, and it's not a lot," someone said.

Wei Wenkui replied: "How do I know, but I caught a lot today, just on the side of the willow forest in the west, I found so many in a small forest, I came back to tell you, immediately I am going to go back to catch it, now a monkey in the county sells for five cents, or the purchase price, how much to ask."

Hearing Wei Wenkui say this, a group of people were moved.

"Why don't we go and have a look?" asked Li Liren at his mother-in-law.

Liu Aifen listened to it and said: "Then let's go home, take the flashlight and look for it, maybe we can get a dozen or twenty yuan in one night."

Qiu Shanghua also nodded and said, "Then let's go together."

"Okay, let's go, let's all go home and get our things."

In this way, a group of people who were watching movies and watching happily moved up small benches and went back to their homes, changed into flashlights and small baskets, and went to catch the monkeys in pairs.

After two or three minutes of effort, there were three people left at the door of Canghai, Shi Wei and Ping'an, plus the two goods of the tiger head and the iron head.

"Why don't we take a look too?" Canghai missed the taste of the monkey a little bit of fried oil, and turned to Shi Wei and asked.

As soon as Shi Wei heard that the monkey had been caught for a long time, she couldn't sit still, and said directly: "Then let's go, what are you waiting for?"

When Ping'an heard this, he immediately stood up, put on his shoes and prepared to go.

This kid didn't move a stool when he was watching a movie, he took off the slippers on his feet directly, and sat under his buttocks, and now he can set off as soon as he stands up and puts on his shoes, unlike Canghai and Shi Wei, who have to move the big recliner under the butt to the grape trellis.

Ready to go, Canghai stretched out his hand and turned off the projector, and the iron head was looking at it happily, and when he saw that the figure of the wall man was gone, he immediately shouted at Canghai twice to express his dissatisfaction.

If it was to do something else, Canghai might not have thrown the iron head at home, but if you catch the monkey, you must take this guy with you, because it can climb the tree, and the monkey that climbs higher can let the iron head catch it, and you don't need people to climb the tree.

When they arrived at the edge of the small river in the village, the small forest below was already bustling, and from time to time there could be a sound in the ears such as: There is one here, there are many in this tree.

Canghai stood outside the woods, saw the shadowy figures in the grove by the moonlight, and said to Shi Wei: "Forget it, let's go farther, it's all about the monkeys."

Seeing so many people, Shi Wei also felt that it was not a good idea to go into this forest to catch them, so she nodded and said, "Shall we go upstream, or downstream?"

"Upstream, there are probably a lot of people downstream," Canghai stretched out his hand and pointed to the lights that flashed from time to time in the east.

"Okay!"

So the three of them and the two beasts walked downstream, passed through a small forest and found Wei Wenkui squatting inside, so they walked down about fifty meters and came to a small forest.

"There are two of them!"

Before entering the grove, Shi Wei opened the flag victoriously, and the flashlight shone on the trunk of the tree, and immediately found two brown monkeys lying on the trunk, because the time was not early, so these monkeys climbed quite high, and had climbed to the middle of the trunk, almost one meter six or seven.

Shi Wei said, happily reaching out and catching the two monkeys from the trunk of the tree and putting them in her small waist basket.

Canghai took the lamp and shone on another tree, and found that there were also two monkeys lying on the trunk, so he reached out and caught them and put them in the small waist basket on Shi Wei's waist.

This will be kung fu, and Ping An has also caught one.

Indeed, as Wei Wenkui said, it is a bit outrageous that there are many monkeys in the grove by the river, and there are no less than 20 monkeys in the grove of more than a dozen trees.

"Let's go over there."

The rise of Canghai Catch, directly pointed to the woods a hundred meters away, this forest is not small, almost more than four acres of land, these trees are still planted by Canghai, to be precise, Canghai planted half, and the other half was planted by the birds and birds at the behest of the Tree of Life.

Enthusiastically arrived at the edge of the forest, and everyone took a strong flashlight and lit it up.

"Isn't this forest good?"

Shi Wei took a dozen or so trees, and only caught a monkey who knew it, and walked in for about five or six meters, but he didn't see a monkey, so he shouted at everyone in Canghai.

Before the words fell, Shi Wei felt that she had stepped on something, and when she was anxious to step on something, she suddenly heard a soft clicking sound under her feet, and immediately took the flashlight and immediately put her feet back.

"Canghai, Canghai, I stepped on a nest of small eggs!"

Shi Wei found that there was a small grass nest under her feet, and the nest was not regular, and it was messy, but she pulled the weeds next to her into a nest, and there were three eggs in it, and now these three eggs have all been broken, and the egg whites and yolks have flowed into a nest.

Canghai heard this and ran to Shi Wei's side, glanced at the little egg she said, and immediately laughed: "You are really industrious, this is an egg, how can there be such a small egg, you don't know this thing, quail eggs, the eggs are so big, and they are all spots, you can also see them as eggs, you can really do it."

What Shi Wei trampled on was a nest of quail eggs, and all three eggs are now useless.

Ping'an also came over at this time, stretched out his head and glanced at the nest: "There are wild quails in the forest, second brother, why don't we look around and see if there are any more, if there are any, find some quail eggs to boil and eat."

"Let's look for it, they all came in anyway, and they were looking for it with the quail eggs and the monkeys, but everyone be careful, the grass here is deep, maybe there are snakes hidden in it," Canghai said.

As soon as she heard about the snake, Shi Wei immediately panicked and took a flashlight to shine around, leaning towards Canghai's side while shining: "Don't scare me!"

Canghai patted his head when he heard this, and said in his heart: How did I forget that she was afraid of snakes!

Thinking of this, Canghai stretched out his hand and broke a branch down, and pulled all the leaves in three or two and sent them to Shi Wei's hands: "It's okay, you just use this to beat the grass, as the old saying goes, the grass scares the snake."

"No, I'd better follow you, I'm afraid of snakes!"

Saying that, Shi Wei not only took the branch, but also reached out and grabbed the corner of Canghai's clothes, looking around nervously.

Canghai smiled when he heard this, and said to Ping'an: "Then let's have two teams, you go over there, I'll look for it here."

Ping An is naturally not afraid of snakes, not only not afraid of snakes but also a little happy to see snakes, for Ping An and Canghai, this snake is a delicacy, not a feared reptile.

The three of them searched for about a quarter of an hour, and Ping'an shouted: "Second brother, I have a nest of quail eggs here, seventeen or eighteen eggs!"

Canghai listened, smiled and roared in the direction where Ping'an's voice came: "If you see it, pick it up, you kid wait for me to send you a certificate!"

Shi Wei's hand hadn't let go of the corner of Canghai's clothes, and when she heard Canghai say this, she remembered how Canghai's family picked up eggs, so she said smartly: "Don't finish picking them all, leave three or four quails to attract quails to continue laying eggs in the nest, then we can come and pick them up every few days."

Most of the chickens raised by Canghai are laying wild eggs outside, and Canghai's fruit grove can find a chicken nest on the slope of the fruit grove at will, and every time you go to pick it up, you have to leave an egg in the chicken nest, so that the hen will continue to lay eggs in this nest, and will not choose another place, so as long as you remember the location of the nest, you can collect a basket of eggs from time to time.

"Doctor Shi, quails are not chickens, they don't lay any eggs in a fixed place, these things are wild," Ping An said, picking up all the eggs into his pocket, and putting them together with the few monkeys he had picked up.

"Go on, go on!" Cang Hai saw that he had picked up a nest of quail eggs, and immediately continued to look for them happily.

The forest is not big, but the road is not easy to walk, mainly because the grass in the forest is deep, there are many shrubs, and many shrubs still have thorns, so it delays everyone's time.

When I got out of the forest, I knew five or six on the Canghai side, and the harvest on the Ping'an side was quite large, with three quail eggs in two nests, and four or five of them.

"Second brother, there are not many monkeys in the forest on the side of this slope, let's go to the forest by the river to find it" Ping'an came out of the forest and immediately found the key problem of knowing the number of monkeys.

This thing is also easy to explain, the soil by the river must be looser, knowing that the monkey is easy to get out, and the far away forest soil is relatively strong, and trying to climb out of the ground to know the monkey can cost more effort than the riverside. This is also the reason why it rained and the monkeys came out of the hole.
