Chapter 165: Unlucky Groundhog
In the early morning, the dew is heavier and the air is humid.
The cicadas' voices are intermittent at the beginning, and as the dew evaporates, their calls become crisper.
The birch forests of the snow-capped mountain pastures grow luxuriantly, and these cicadas are exceptionally strong, and hundreds of them chirp together, which has a kind of irritating magic.
Han Xuan's sweet dream was woken up by them again.
Finally drove those Hailan chickens into the distance, he didn't have much to do with the summer cicadas, he couldn't cut down all the trees by Lake Rota, so he could only endure this helpless torture every day.
From being annoyed and irritable at the beginning, lamenting that he couldn't sleep lazily during the summer vacation, to now getting up silently to brush his teeth and wash and ignore them, it took Han Xuan more than a month to get used to it.
The beginning of the new day was not good, there were crickets and various insects in the evening, and the cicadas were singing during the day, and he thought that it was really necessary to solve these annoying little things, day and night, there should always be something to be comfortable with.
Last night, my father specially instructed him to wear trousers today, some stones in the tributaries of the Mori River have not been smoothed by the current, and wearing shorts may scratch the legs, and leeches and the like are also big troubles.
"I wake up every day by myself, and it's always been like this. ”
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror and dozing off, Han Xuan said narcissistically.
There are four large pockets next to the army-green hiking pants, and a red short-sleeved shirt is worn on the top, and a blue plaid shirt is added to the outside for fear of the strong sun today.
I found that the trademark had not been cut, and I didn't see the scissors after rummaging for a while, so I sat on the edge of the bed and bit my teeth for a long time before I got it right.
When I went downstairs and saw my father watching TV, I couldn't help but be a little curious, Han's father saw his son's gaze, his heart was clear, and he said: "In the past, it was the fat guy who went to pick up newspapers, but now it is Snoopy." I don't know where it put the newspaper. ”
It was like confirming his words.
In the yard, Fat Ding was squatting by the pool, shaking his short legs and meowing constantly, while the Alaskan Malamute was dejected and trained, and after a while he was attracted by butterflies and slipped away.
Fat Ding saw that it dared to blatantly skip class, so it was okay. rushed up and pressed the sixteen-pound body against Snoopy's upper body, and the cat and dog suddenly became a ball.
Thanks to Han Xuan's family, they have money, otherwise they will definitely not be able to take care of the Kodiak brown bear, Pooh this guy spent nearly a thousand dollars last month, and he has been holding a large bucket of fruit since the morning, like this fifty-centimeter-high bucket, it eats two and a half buckets a day.
The two little raccoons cowered and ran to it to ask for food, and Pooh graciously pulled some apple crumbs out of his mouth and threw them in front of them. He patted the little raccoon on the head and said that he didn't need to thank him.
A birch tree near the lake, which grows taller than the other trees around it by virtue of its accumulated nutrients, is called the "no-go area of the pasture" by Joanna, and there are so many mines that you can get caught if you are not careful.
The boy's mother wore an apron and brought a cup of black soy milk. Han Xuan didn't discourage her enthusiasm, and lowered his eyes with round eyes. Coarse grains have a lot of fiber, rinse your mouth with a glass of milk, and when you see her pour it into the cup again, she runs out as if she is running away.
Father Han caught a glimpse of him, put down the remote control and was just about to follow out, when he heard footsteps behind him. Secretly about to suffer, he turned around and drank a glass with a stiff smile, and then another glass.
The whole stomach was filled with coarse grain soy milk, and the father and son swayed out the door, came to the garage and pointed to pick up a Humvee. I feel that there are too few cars at home, and I can't even find one that can pull goods.
Driving to the cattle pen to find someone to accompany the two of them for recreation, Han Xuan analyzed: "Old Barton can't let it go, he knows that there are a lot of fish there, and there are Anderson and Jones, who are strong enough to help with the work, bring Martinez, those"
"Dirty, tired, just leave it to him, after a month at the stable, I heard that the Shar Pei listened to him every day, and was about to learn to speak, and he must have been very happy. Father Han smiled.
A groundhog on the side of the road saw a car coming, panicked and burrowed into a hole in the grassland.
I don't know which guy is lazy when digging, the hole is too small for its belly, the two front paws hold the soil wall and drill into it, change the posture and drill it on its back, take a deep breath and drill again......
finally reluctantly admitted that he was fat.
I went in too hard, and now I'm relieved, causing my stomach to get stuck in the hole, and my two short legs are scratching hard outside.
Han Xuan looked through the car window for a long time, but he didn't see what kind of rare species it was, and the tentacles on its head were so big.
Tell Daddy to stop, pick up a stick and go that way.
Han's father couldn't guess what it was, so he took out a Beretta M9 pistol from under the seat of the carriage, took it in his hand and walked in front of his son, Han Xuan looked at the wooden stick in his hand, and immediately threw it away.
Slowly approaching the strange creature, Father Han stretched out his head from afar and asked, "Rabbit?"
"What rabbit can be so big, look at this tail like a groundhog. Han Xuan was unsure: "Is it stuck?" ”
"If they were pretty much the same, they were all brainless, and they often got stuck in the bars of the ranch. The boy's father said happily, seeing that there was no threat, he pinned the gun behind his waist and walked over with confidence.
The groundhog felt the ground shake, and his legs were scratching rapidly, and his buttocks were twisting and writhing, which caused it to get stuck even tighter, and when the father and son approached, they crossed their legs in resignation.
"This guy is really fat, our ranch is inhabited by a colony of marmots all year round, but this is the first time I've seen them so close to the living area in the depths of the pasture before. ”
Father Han squatted down, plucked weeds and scratched the soles of the marmot's feet, and the marmot kicked out suddenly, intending to attack the predator, but he didn't want to pounce in the air, and he could hear the creaking sound of it flashing to his waist, and his movements suddenly froze.
"Don't touch it, I'll get something. Han Xuan finished speaking and ran back.
His father thought he was looking for tools to save the marmot, and stood by and waited for two minutes, when he saw his son running over with a camera, he said speechlessly, "What are you doing?"
"It's so much fun to take pictures. ”
“……”
Without the tools he had, he looked around, picked up the wooden stick he had lost, and used it to dig for nearly twenty minutes before he rescued the marmot.
Touching the sunlight again was a little uncomfortable, the groundhog squinted his eyes slightly, turned around in slow motion, and planned to escape, but he took two steps to the ground, and moved forward with his two front paws on the ground, and the expression on Baozi's face was so tragic.
"Save it, it looks like it's hurt there, and you have to take it to the veterinarian for treatment." Han Xuan squatted on the groundhog and said, "Go to the car and look for it, see what to put it on." ”
"Why didn't you bring anything with us. ”
"I didn't know it would be like this. ”
Han's father had no choice but to return to the car, found a large shopping bag from the trunk, fearing that there would be bacteria and not let his son do it, after putting it on, he threw the marmot into the car, and sat in the driver's seat to start the Humvee.
He looked back and said: "They like to eat alfalfa, there used to be a lot of marmots here in the snowy mountain pastures, and one year there was a rat plague, and there were holes in the grassland, and the previous owner had no choice but to hunt them, and there seemed to be more of them in recent years." ”
"The alfalfa in our pasture grows well to be like this, eat it, anyway, there is a lot of grass. ”
"You're generous, and the marmot meat is very tender......" (To be continued.) )
