Chapter 216: The Tale of the Flying Dragon and the Wolf
Du Fei was lying on the kang, except for occasionally answering his grandfather's questions, he didn't say a word, he was not a good talker, but now that he was injured, he was inevitably a little depressed.
Du Laohan was busy grabbing some aged hazelnuts, walnuts and other dried fruits in the box to entertain the guests, while constantly saying good things about Zhao Qing and the two in front of Shuangshuang.
When the old man heard that Zhao Yili saved his grandson Du Fei empty-handed, and kicked a sturdy wolf to death three times, Du Laohan, who had been a hunter for generations, immediately straightened his waist, looked Zhao Yili up and down again, and even reached out and touched Zhao Yili's leg, patted his left leg, and patted his right leg, and said with emotion for a long time:
"Yes, yes, this body is really strong, but to face a wolf, the skills and courage required are quite good!
"You know, even when our brothers were young, they needed a little guy in their hands to dare to confront the wild wolf, but in the mountains, the vast majority of hunters are unwilling to compete with wolves, after all, as soon as they move, they may attract wolves, so as soon as they move, they must be quick to decide, stone, you have done a good job, much stronger than the old man when I was young."
Zhao Yili felt a little numb when he heard this, although the old man was praising himself vigorously, but the young man was really unbearable sometimes, so he changed the topic and said:
"Grandpa Du, that wolf corpse is still in my car, you are always an expert, can you help me peel off the wolf skin?
Du Fei grabbed the words: "Hehe, stone, you can be regarded as finding the right person!"
Back then, when my grandfather was young, he was a well-deserved number one hunter in our village. You should look for my grandfather about skinning the wolf! ”
Zhao Xiaoke gently knocked on Du Fei's head, and said with a smile:
"When you were young? I think Grandpa Du is also a tiger old man now, and his majesty has not diminished, right? ”
Du Fei scratched his head with a wry smile and stopped talking.
Du Laohan glanced at his grandson and nodded happily in agreement.
Zhao Xiaoke asked with some hesitation at this time:
"Brother, I remember that wolves seem to belong to the national second-class protected animals, we keep wolf skins like this, will anyone find trouble?"
Du Laohan didn't raise his head, and shrugged his shoulders, for him. This kind of thing is naturally not held accountable by the people. Zhao Yili smiled slightly, and said indifferently: "Ask your sister-in-law about this, she is a "police academy cadet". ”
But Shuangshuang smiled and gently pushed him, and said to Xiao Ke:
"Xiaoke, don't listen to your brother's nonsense, I'm not a student policeman, just a law enthusiast.
You can rest assured that countries around the world advocate and legislate for the protection of wildlife. This is certainly true, but it will not be overkill, because the purpose of legislation is to put people first and foremost.
If the national animal protection bill protects the animal, in turn, it poses a serious threat to the safety of human life. We can't wait for death obediently, can we? ”
Xiao Ke understood a little and said, "I know, this one is called legitimate defense, right?" ”
Shuangshuang touched Xiao Ke's smooth hair. Nodding slowly:
"There is progress, there is progress. However, justifiable defense is a term that applies to human beings. For animals, this article is legally called "emergency avoidance".
Du Laohan also stroked the beard under his chin, squinted his eyes and smiled: I have to say that there are more people in the family, and it is really warm.
Zhao Yili handed over the whole wolf in the car to Old Man Du, raised his hand to look at his watch, the time was almost up, and the family should be in a hurry, so he decided to leave.
When he left, he was still careful enough, reached over Zhao Yili, and pulled out a few old man's heads from Zhao Yili's wallet, and he didn't allow Old Man Du to refuse, so he just stuffed them into his hand, smiled sweetly, and said:
"Grandpa Du, this is a little bit of our heart, don't shirk when you are old, keep it for Brother Du to make up for it, he has lost some blood this time, let's get some bones and stew some soup well, Brother Du, when you heal your injuries, come and play with us when you have time."
This habit is polite and courteous, Du Laohan and Du Fei's hearts really don't come out a word, it is hot, the old man is a little confused, so he has to stop refusing, but he muttered in his mouth:
"The two of these Zhao family members are good people, and the object is even better, okay, they are both good people, by the way, you wait for me, wait, don't leave yet."
The old man seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly turned around and wiped the corners of his eyes, his personality had been strong all his life, and he rarely got moved like this, so he went out of the house.
When everyone looked at each other, the taciturn Du Fei spoke.
"Don't be surprised, my grandfather is like this, he is on the temper, his attitude is very good, on the person who is not on the temper, even the village secretary was blasted out by him twice.
The day before yesterday, when my grandfather went into the mountains, he was lucky enough to get two flying dragons, which were the occasional hunting prey, and they were kept in my cellar, even if it was dog days, there were still popsicles in them. I guess he's going to take the dragon. ”
Dragon? Is it a dinosaur? And still dinosaurs?
Confused, Shuangshuang asked about the origin of the Wyvern.
Zhao Yili looked at Du Fei, who shook his head, then smiled and said slowly:
"The flying dragon is not a dragon, but a mountain treasure.
Also known as the flower-tailed hazel pheasant, is a small bird abundant in our country and Sweden, China's flying dragon is produced in the Changbai Mountains in the northeast, and the flying dragon is one of the "four mountain treasures" (bear's paw, hash toad, flying dragon, monkey's head) in the northeast.
"People may have only heard about how famous the four mountain treasures of the Northeast were, but they have only heard that the number of flying dragons in the Northeast has been decreasing since they were listed as tributes in the Qing Dynasty.
"Although the flying dragon is called the flying dragon, but the flight ability is relatively weak, the highest flight altitude, that is, between 40-50 meters above the ground, the flying dragon usually lives in the shrubs, and the nest is also built relatively low, generally on the tree of about 10 meters.
In fact, according to the normal living habits of the flower-tailed hazelnut chicken, it is basically difficult to see the traces of the flying dragon during the day. Researchers from the Animal Society wanted to capture both of them, and they had to move at night to study their habits.
Du Laohan came back after a while, but he was carrying a sturdy silk bag in his hand, and said excitedly:
"You're lucky, boy, if you had been here for three days, it wouldn't have been such a good thing.
I caught two seriously injured wyverns, one male and one female.
Originally, I went into the mountain early that morning to hunt a few rabbits or something, and the pair of wyverns should have been resting in the nest when it was almost dawn, but they were attacked by a mountain beaver who happened to pass by, and they were not lightly injured, and they were exhausted while flying. Later met me.
Anyway, I can't see it, so don't waste it, so I caught it. ”
It's a good thing, and most of the time, you can't catch it if you want to. The old man's expression was quite painful, his eyes were sealed, and he seemed to be reminiscing about the delicious flying dragon soup again.
Shuangshuang decisively took over the topic and said:
"Grandpa Du, since you have such a precious treasure, you can keep it for drinking. We're going to do it."
"Hey, that's not good, no matter how precious it is, it can be worth more than my grandson's life? Besides, my old man is also a well-known man. Where is the gift that is sent out? Isn't that a slap in the face? Take it, get it! There were also two fat rabbits in it, which were set on the same day, and the girl came to the stone house for the first time. How can you not order hard goods to entertain you? ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Yili with his eyes, and the latter had no choice but to scratch his head and say:
"Okay. That's disrespectful, thank you Grandpa Du. ”
When Zhao Yili rushed home, he saw that his chimney was no longer smoking, and he was afraid that the meal would have already been served, but Du Fei was really a little late when he delayed it.
When everyone entered the house with a little weak heart, they saw Zhao Qing and his wife, and they didn't get angry, and they didn't ask much, they just said, I'm back, wash your hands and eat!
Zhao Yili wanted to say a few words of explanation to his parents, but he was coldly preempted by his sister.
I only heard Zhao Xiaoke's sharp teeth and mouth, and he would follow his brother up the mountain to play, but he saved people by chance, and kicked a wild wolf to death three times, crackling like a small machine gun, and made a report to his parents, even Old Man Du sent the flying dragon that he had just made up, and he also said it clearly.
As soon as Xu Lan heard that the three of them had met a wolf, her face turned white with fright, and she hurriedly got up to check if the three people were injured, and the panicked expression, even Zhao Yili, who had experienced it herself, was startled, and hurriedly said that the three of them were unharmed, Mom, don't make a fuss.
Although Xu Lan was calm, she grabbed her little hands and comforted her in a blink of an eye:
"Shuangshuang, I'm really sorry!
You see, the first time I came to our house, I encountered this kind of thing, don't be afraid, I'm going to teach you a lesson, how can I take you to stay in the mountains so late? ”
Xiao Ke quipped: "Mom, sister-in-law is the first time to come to the door, and now it is not considered to be in our house, hehe!" Speaking of which, Zhao Xiaoke naturally wanted to remind his mother openly and secretly, don't forget, there is also Chen Xiangning in front of him!
"You die this girl, you can catch your mother's words, right?" Xu Lan pulled Shuangshuang while gently making a gesture to hit Xiao Ke.
Shuangshuang had to smile and purse his lips silently, at this time silence is better than sound.
This young future mother-in-law, who is not talkative, and the fast-talking but understanding sister-in-law, the family of this family, get along really well, so warm. Shuangshuang couldn't help but sigh a little emotionally: Although his parents are also affectionate and good to themselves, but his father is in politics, and his mother is that kind of independent character, how long has it been since the Zhao family had such a warm feeling in his own home?
Zhao Qing's face was a little dignified, the wild wolf went down the mountain and bit someone, so he had to notify the village and take some precautions in time, otherwise if the wolves went down the mountain to retaliate, it would be troublesome.
So Zhao Qing grabbed his coat and said: "I have to go out, find the security director, and let the militia be on guard, otherwise it will be bad if anyone is injured again, you eat first, and I will come back in a while." ”
Xu Lan was stunned and said: "Call directly and say no, this is going to eat right away, what if Shuangshuang is still there?" ”
Zhao Qing nodded at Shuangshuang and said, "No, I can't say a few words on the phone about this matter, I have to go in person, Shuangshuang, you eat first, don't wait for me." Shuangshuang nodded obediently in understanding.
Xu Lan said: "It's okay, you go and come back quickly, it just so happens that I also made this flying dragon soup, and we will have dinner when you come back!" ”
After dinner, he took Shuangshuang to walk on the side of the road outside the courtyard gate to eliminate food, and when he saw the expression on Shuangshuang's face, Zhao Yili smiled dumbly:
"Why, are you still savoring the deliciousness of the dragon soup?
"Well, it's delicious, why do you think this thing is so delicious?" Both took Zhao Yili's hand, did not shy away from his inner thoughts, and tilted his head and asked.
"Naturally, how can it be called the name of the 'Four Great Mountains of the Northeast'? Zhao Yili also had a little aftertaste of this super delicious flying dragon soup, and said with emotion. (To be continued.) )
PS: "The flying dragon is not a dragon, but a mountain treasure.
