Chapter 13
Not long after, the wounded woke up, and the captain of the GI hurried into the house.
It was almost noon when the GIs who had gone out to pick up the people came back, and brought back several of them.
Private B and his comrades carried a sika deer, and the sika deer wailed.
Private B shouted: "This sika deer ......" has been buried in the snow and frozen, but it is still alive, see if it can be saved......
However, it was not finished.
The tiger, which had been lying on the floor of the hall, jumped out and pounced on the two people who were carrying the deer.
The two of them were startled, and retreated at the same time, their frozen hands could no longer lift the deer in their hands, and they fell to the ground with a thud.
The tiger bit the deer's neck, clicked, and snapped.
Everyone was shocked, and the next few people touched their waists at the same time.
Jono picked up a basin and ran out, shouting, "Hurry up and get the deer blood!" ”
The basin was stuffed under the deer's neck, and he reached out to hug the tiger's neck, and jumped on his back to smooth the hair.
Everyone was stunned.
The tiger drank enough deer blood, slowly loosened the neck of the deer in the mouth, stood up, carried a human cub on his back, raised his head and roared, shook his fur, took the steps of the king and the cat, and slowly walked back to the hall, and the old place lay down.
The seven new GIs all turned their heads to look at the captain: "......" cubs are so familiar, tigers are so familiar, what is this place? It was windy and snowy, but we didn't want to go inside at all.
The captain of the GI silently pressed the deer's neck and took a small half basin of deer blood, and the dead deer dragged it to the snowdrift by the well in the courtyard, and the deer blood basin was brought into the hall and placed in front of the tiger.
Qiao Nuo rubbed on the tiger's back for a while, jumped down, grabbed a pinch of salt and threw it into the deer blood basin, stirred it, and shouted: "Grandpa, there is fresh sika deer blood!" ”
Grandpa Qiao's voice came: "Ask the uncles if they want to eat, if they eat, cook deer blood soup for them at noon, and if they don't eat it, make it into blood tofu and keep it for the tiger to feed." ”
Qiao Nuo glanced at the PLA uncles who were clearing snow and setting up tents in the yard and said, "They don't eat." He shouted to the captain of the GI again: "Uncle of the People's Liberation Army, the deer skin has not been picked yet, and the bore has not been picked, don't freeze it yet." ”
The captain of the GI remembered the old flesh frozen in the backyard: "...... You go to the mountains. ”
The soldier who was setting up a tent was suddenly startled and stammered: "Team, captain, then, that's to protect animals, it's illegal, right?" "It's okay for Siberian tigers to eat on their own, but it's not right for them to get started, right?
The captain of the GI pointed to the human minor who was walking out with a kitchen knife, which was no taller than his thigh, and then pointed to the Siberian tiger, a protected animal that had not left the cub on the threshold, and was very weak: "Who broke the law?" ”
The mountain was entangled for a long time, and when he saw that the child had done it himself, he succumbed silently, took out his beloved Swiss Army knife, and squatted down to pick up the deerskin.
Qiao Nuo took two large basins and squatted next to him to command: "Be careful of the antlers, cut off the little brother, don't hurt the skin, grandpa said that these are all state property and must be handed over." ”
As instructed, the mountain skinned the poor deer, cleaned it, chopped off its antlers, cut off its whip, cut off its hooves, cut off its tail, and cut its body in half.
Siberian tiger Shi Shiran got up, walked over, sniffed on the mountain, lowered his head and took the upper half of the deer body cleaned, and found a leeward place in the yard to eat.
Dashan endured the weakness of his legs and stomach and tried not to touch his waist: "......" begged for a bath, begged for blood, begged for the Siberian tiger not to sniff.
Tents were set up in the courtyard, and a meeting was held with twelve GIs, including the wounded, organized by the captain.
Not far from the tent, Siberian tigers are eating deer, sika deer that they have dug up from the snowdrifts and brought back to find someone to treat them.
Thinking of the difficulty of digging the deer and the indifferent attitude of the grandparents and grandchildren towards the deer, several people did not look good.
The captain of the GI scolded in a low voice: "The old man is seventy-nine, and he is treating our comrades-in-arms. Put away your feelings, don't feel how great and noble you are if you have shed blood and worked hard for the country, the old man is a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War! ”
Everyone's expressions were stunned, and the seven new GIs bowed their heads even more.
Private A looked at the captain, looked at the comrades-in-arms, and played a round: "If you want me to say this, there is nothing that I can't say." Sika deer are protected animals, and we have the obligation to save and protect them. Sika deer are protected, Siberian tigers are even more protected, can you tell Siberian tigers that it is illegal to eat sika deer? Does it understand? I came early, and apart from that child, even Qiao Lao couldn't get close to the tiger. Can you preach to the Siberian tiger or to the kid who is only four or five years old? Even if you preach to children, what do you teach? Say he can't keep a tiger as a cat? Said he couldn't tell someone to clean up the prey so that the tiger could eat more conveniently? Saying he can't take in the Siberian tigers when the snowstorm is about to come and help the country take care of the Siberian tigers? ”
The heads of the seven GIs were lower.
Dashan interjected weakly: "The kid said that the deerskin antlers and deer whips must be handed over to the state, saying that they still have them in their backyard, and they were brought by the Siberian tiger yesterday." ”
The big soldier Jia said: "So, the grandfather and grandson, at most, follow the tiger to eat meat and drink soup." Is it really so unacceptable that the old and the young can make them full by picking out the leftover bones of the tiger? ”
There was a small meeting in the courtyard tent, and Jono now had sharp ears and could hear clearly, so he opened the curtain of the door to make a live broadcast for his grandfather.
The wounded soldier who was sober and drinking medicine and was forced to listen to the scene: "......" was embarrassed by himself.
However, the love of the GIs was more due to the fact that the sika deer they rescued was eaten under their noses and the indifferent attitude of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Qiao family, but they were quietly turned around by the GI A and led to the fact that their comrades-in-arms minded the leftover meat that the Qiao family ate from the tiger, which was still the life-saving benefactor of their injured comrades. The nature has changed, but the effect has changed for the better - everyone's heads have been lowered.
Lunch was exceptional.
Braised rice in a big pot, a pot of cakes baked by Chunsheng's daughter-in-law next door, slices of sauerkraut shabu-shabu, and the pot of deer bone soup left over in the hot morning.
There are also small stoves.
Jono's plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, a bowl of pork liver soup for the wounded, and a pot of deer blood tofu for the tiger.
After eating, Jono helped his grandfather to the toilet.
Taking advantage of the absence of the master's family, the wounded soldier said to several comrades-in-arms: "I know the content of your meeting, and that kid even imitates your tone of speech. ”
A group of GIs all sneered.
When the grandfather and grandson came back, the grandfather washed his hands and face and entered the house, and the grandson hugged the small quilt and rested on the tiger's back with his eyes closed.
The tiger was afraid of freezing its cubs, so he moved towards the stove he didn't like.
The captain of the soldiers squatted down, touched Jono's head, pinched off a tiger hair, and said, "It's cold here, go back to the house and sleep." ”
Qiao Nuo buried his little face in the tiger's fur and shook his head: "There are wounded people in the house, and my body is not clean." ”
The captain of the GI suddenly softened in his heart. What a sensible bear child!
A group of GIs is even more embarrassing.
As soon as it is embarrassing, people are diligent.
Sweeping snow, sweeping the front and back yards, sweeping the gates, and stepping on ladders to sweep the roof.
Chopping wood, smashing coal, cleaning up broken tables, chairs and benches, and wiping pots and lids can shine on people's shadows.
Private B picked up the bucket and asked where to fetch water.
Jono pointed to the Westinghouse: "There is a water pump pipe in the corner, plugged in and pumped directly." "There is a pressurized water well in the yard, and it is okay in the summer half a year, and the water can be pressurized directly. It is inconvenient in the winter half of the year, and their old and young people, of course, how convenient and how to come, they bought a water pump to pump water directly.
Private B silently put down the bucket, and saw a few small clothes thrown in the basket at the base of the wall, and picked them up and soaked them in the basin.
Gino glanced at the cloth covered washing machine next to the basket and was about to speak.
Private B picked up a small sock with two fingers, compared it in the palm of his hand, and said, "So small! ”
Jono turned his head silently. The washing machine is not used for you!
watched people wash their clothes in cold water, jumped off the back of the tiger, and scooped a pot of hot water with a teapot and poured it in.
Private B glanced at Jono's feet.
Jono: "......" this PLA uncle is not cute at all! This seat is still small, and it will grow up in the future!
Four days later, early in the morning, the snow stopped.
The GIs began to dismantle their tents and prepare to leave, and the wounded were ready to be transported away at any time.
Near noon, the captain of the GI received a call that the county hospital was ready, but the people who had been sent to pick it up were stopped in the town and could not get up.
After lunch, the wounded were packed and lifted onto the sleigh, and the group set off in full gear.
"All of them!" The captain of the GI gave an order, and the twelve GIs lined up in two teams, knocked on their heels, and snapped together to perform a military salute.
Grandpa Joe replied with one.
Jono hugged the tiger's neck and stared.
In the distance, a group of villagers also watched.
Because there are injured people, you have to be extra careful on the road, and Grandpa Qiao helped find a few villagers who are familiar with the road conditions as guides.
The group soon disappeared at the entrance of the village.
There were two grandparents and a big tiger left in front of Qiao's house.
Someone among the villagers quietly raised their hands.
Joonodo was keen, and immediately looked over.
The big tiger followed and looked over, and when he saw a black thing that had been lifted in the air, he roared and rushed over with the cub on his back.
The villagers were startled and sought the nearest door to hide inside.
The person holding the black box was left in place, his legs were weak, and he was pulled by someone, and suddenly he threw the things in his hand and turned around and ran with the person, and ran into a house with the person, and the door was plugged in from the inside.
Jono shouted to the tiger, jumped off the ground, picked up the black box, and shouted, "Grandpa, I picked up a camera!" ”
