76. New Threat to the Ranch (Fill Yesterday's Chapter)

I didn't sleep last night, but it didn't rain much, and it didn't rain until about half past three, and it rained heavily until about half past three, and it was half past five when I got home, and I slept until noon, cool.

--------------------------

It's a wild dog!

When you mention wild dogs in China, people will smile, but when you meet wild dogs in Australia, people will be terrified!

Because here, dingoes are the apex predators.

The dingo is the closest primitive dog to the wolf, and the only member of the carnivorous order in Australia before the arrival of white people.

Emperor Wu was considering whether to approach it, and the dog seemed to have spotted Emperor Wu and 7K, and cautiously ran over to this side, turning around to observe the surrounding situation in ten steps, which was very similar to a wolf.

With Emperor Wu's aura-filled physique, it is not a big problem to single out a wild dog, but it will inevitably be injured, in case it bites or scratches the skin, rabies is not a joke.

Fortunately, it is one, if you meet a group, I am afraid that Emperor Wu will have a hard fight, the question is how did this wild dog enter the ranch, the height of the fence outside the ranch is specially designed to prevent wild dogs and other animals from jumping in, and there is a half-meter-high barbed wire fence at the top of the fence, which can only show that the fence is broken somewhere, so that it swaggered in.

When the distance was less than 100 meters, 7K was a little panicked, and Emperor Wu held the reins tightly, wanting to see the wild dog up close.

It is the size of a Caucasian dog, an adult male dog, belonging to the big man among wild dogs, and the three young men of the pasture are not as big as him.

Fortunately, it was only one, and it was not enough to pose a threat to Emperor Wu and 7K.

The wild dog is very similar to the native dog of his hometown, but the canine teeth are much thicker, the body is slender, the face is in the shape of an inverted triangle, the whole body is short earthy yellow, the thick and hard tail is more like a wolf, and the face is hideous and maintains an aggressive posture.

Emperor Wu told Tex through the walkie-talkie that he found a wild dog, and Tex felt bad, reminding Emperor Wu that there might be a pack of wild dogs around, and asked him to come back first and get his weapon.

Emperor Wu thought to himself, go back and come out to look for it, with the temperament of a wild dog, I am afraid that he will not be able to find it, he is not afraid of thieves stealing, he is afraid of thieves, and he will not be able to sleep at night when the time comes.

Now the only way to get this messy creature out of the gap in the fence is to kill it.

Tex was on his way over, Emperor Wu was a little worried, wild dogs are social animals, and the chance of being alone is very small, in case a large army comes, it will be really a trouble.

The wild dog didn't seem to be in a hurry, squatting a hundred meters away from Emperor Wu, looking around, howling a few times from time to time, as if greeting his companions.

Emperor Wu held the reins in his hand and approached it little by little, 7K adapted to the smell of wild dogs, and also settled down, breathing a lot more evenly.

The 7K tall physique is a lot of pressure on the wild dog, it will not rashly attack animals larger than its own size, the wild dog slowly retreats, and the mood becomes more and more agitated, as if its howl did not call its companions.

Turks rushed over to join Emperor Wu, an area where there had been wild dog packs before, but they were all on the fringes, where there were plenty of hares, and they rarely went to the pasture areas to find food.

Seeing the other horse, the wild dog seemed a little depressed, the kind it was waiting for did not appear, but had one more fierce rival, and the wild dog began to slowly retreat, turning back after a few steps.

"The black bull probably broke the fence and gave these guys a chance. Emperor Wu said, and they rode after the wild dogs, hoping to drive them out of the gap in the fence without fighting.

"BOSS, you didn't do it right, because wild dogs are protected animals in Australia and cannot be hunted unless they threaten life. Tex said quietly.

Emperor Wu was speechless, "Fake, are there any unprotected animals in Australia? ”

Turks laughed, "If you walk down the streets of Siney, if a bird comes down from the sky and robs your bread, you can only endure it and not drive them away, because it is illegal to drive birds, and the police will immediately come up and knock you to the ground." ”

"Well, I'm just getting started with Australia, and it's really refreshed my outlook on life. ”

While the intentions are good, the regulations are a bit too pedantic.

The two talked for a while, Emperor Wu tried to speed up the pace of 7K, driving the wild dog, always keeping a certain distance, so that it would not think that it was in a desperate situation and launch a suicide attack, some wrong actions would be mistaken for a hostile attack, and the wild dog would not hesitate to turn into a fierce wolf.

"Come and eat me, little one, I'm not going to fight back. Emperor Wu muttered to himself.

The wild dog seemed to be hungry and purred, and in the face of the two horses it thought it had no chance of winning, and slowly overtook it and ran away.

The wild dog is very territorial, and there is obviously no urine left by their family in the pasture, so it does not dare to stay here rashly and slip in one direction.

"It's going back to the family, and we're going to keep up, and we're sure we'll be able to find a gap in the pasture. ”

The two followed closely behind the dingo not far away, keeping the dingo at a safe distance.

Sure enough, not long after, the wild dogs ran with them to the edge of the pasture, and a two-meter-wide wooden fence was cracked, and the broken wood was still lying on the ground.

The wild dog ran down the mouth and ran off into the distance.

"Wow, big surprise, what's out there that attracts Rejoice, the cow, or the fresher pasture?" said Tex with a smile.

The two dismounted and walked over to check.

"In my opinion, there is nothing that can make Rejoice give up the leisurely life on the ranch except the strength of the cow. "Emperor Wu spread his hands.

"It's also possible that you don't want to be made into beef jerky or beef burgers," Tex said. ”

Emperor Wu picked up the broken wood on the ground and temporarily placed it on the gap, so that the fence looked like there was no gap.

The wild dogs weren't smart enough to see that the wood was improvised and fell off at the slightest touch.

"Uncle Frank, the fence at the northwestern point of the ranch needs to be repaired, and the key to the Raptor is in the jacket pocket on the second floor. "Emperor Wu spoke to Frank through the walkie-talkie.

"Looks like some of them are busy. Frank replied with a smile, and he put down the wrench in his hand to prepare the wooden nails and the like.

They had to fix the gap temporarily, and then go to town to buy professional materials and come back to repair it, which required a lot of professional tools.

"BOSS, maybe we can be like House Manor, with a plant fence and a row of shrubs instead of the wood. Turks said.

"You're right, I thought about keeping the fence and planting a circle of thorn trees to prevent animals from invading and be beautiful. "When he was a guest at the House Manor, Emperor Wu thought about this problem, and the large manor was full of all kinds of flowers, and Emperor Wu wanted to plant lavender on both sides of the road of the pasture.

Tex frowned, "Thorn tree? sounds like a bad guy to mess with." ”

"The name sounds fierce, but it's actually very gentle to build a thorn tree. The older the tree, the more thorns it has, and it is beautiful against the green leaves. ”

As a rancher, Emperor Wu checked all kinds of information. Thorn trees are currently the world's best protective trees, and are widely used in orchards, factories, and ecological farms. Three years after planting, it becomes a plant wall, and it is difficult for the man with an axe and saw to enter during the day, let alone jump in, unless he wants his ass to bloom.

Tex smiled, "Sounds amazing, the ranch is sure to be beautiful from the air." ”

"By the way, I'm going to buy a sightseeing helicopter. Speaking of the sky, Emperor Wu thought of this idea.

"Cool, BOSS, I tried driving an Apache in '09, and a pilot's license isn't easy to get. ”

The two were waiting for Frank to pick up the tools, and Emperor Wu planned to go outside the fence to take a look.

The gap in the fence stretches the north-west corner of the ranch, with a hill in the distance covered in sparse low vegetation that turns over to a desert that stretches into central New South Wales.

There is the town of White Cliff, which is rich in rare black opal, and the whole town is located in the "tunnel", so it is warm in winter and cool in summer.

The desert area between is not part of the realm of human activity, it is an animal paradise, kangaroos of all sizes, spotted lizards two meters long, poisonous insects that cannot be named, and of course, wild dogs.

When it comes to deserts, camels are indispensable, and they are an alien species like rabbits, which are now overflowing, and even export camels to Saudi Arabia every year.

"Boss, are you really going to check it out over there? I don't think it's a good note. ”

"The 7K is the fastest horse in the area, and I'm sure no animal can threaten it. ”

Tex suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly stopped Emperor Wu, "Have you heard of the Hunter Valley?"

Emperor Wu was stunned for a moment, the name seemed familiar, "Hunter Valley?

Tex waved his hand, "Ride the 7K all the way north at 100 mph, about 5 hours to get there, the Hunter Valley is a natural grape growing area, gathered 40 small wineries, producing more than 80 kinds of wines. ”

"Sounds good, you mean we can go there for a drink?" asked Emperor Wu.

Tex shrugged, "Maybe there will be a wine called South Australia in the future." ”

Emperor Wu smiled, this is a good idea, now he wants to do everything, and he wants to invest everywhere with a little spare money in his hand.
