Chapter 5: Simba's Horror
Xu Wenjie, who felt that his face was wet and had not fully woken up, saw a huge tongue licking his face, and there was some stinging pain, and then he suddenly woke up and rolled towards the bed.
At this time, he was obviously still a little confused, and he didn't understand the situation, but when he saw Simba's golden hair, huge ears, and innocent eyes, he realized that he was now on the African savannah.
"Simba, what are you doing, uh, it's past nine o'clock."
Xu Wenjie picked up his mobile phone and found that it was already more than nine o'clock, so he quickly got up, and at ten o'clock, Uncle Luola was coming.
"Wait, I know you're hungry, I'll get you something to eat in a minute." Xu Wenjie found that raising a lion doesn't seem to be so easy, and this guy's food is a problem.
I wanted to find some water to wash my face, but I found that the pump was gone, let alone water. Xu Wenjie, who was helpless, could only take out a bottle of mineral water from his bag to wash his face and brush his teeth, it seems that these problems must be solved today.
There used to be generators here, but unfortunately after my grandfather died, they were all moved.
Coming out of the house, before he could observe the surrounding environment, he saw an antelope lying there not far from the door, Simba walked to the antelope, sat there in a half-squatting position, and looked at Xu Wenjie.
"You went out in the morning to catch it, yes, it's too big, I won't bake this thing, you can eat it yourself, I'll eat some cookies later."
Looking at Simba's appearance, Xu Wenjie knew that this was the food that Simba caught for him to eat in the morning, but this guy didn't know that he couldn't drink blood like a lion.
After knowing that Xu Wenjie would not eat, Simba opened his huge mouth, bit the carcass of the antelope, and ran into the distance.
Feeling the smell of fresh grass in the grassland air, Xu Wenjie thought to himself, if this is in China, I am afraid that only on the northwest plateau can have such an environment.
Looking back at the dilapidated wooden house, I was a little helpless, the environment here is better, but if I want to live here, I am a little fucked. There is no electricity, no water, no living supplies, and if you want to stay in such a place, ordinary people may really not be able to accept it.
Today, in addition to buying a car, it seems that you will need to buy a generator, a water pump, well, maybe some people to come here and repair the house.
Xu Wenjie, who ate some biscuits, began to take Simba around the wooden house to check, since he was going to live here, he had to understand the situation here first, and then eliminate the potential danger first.
"Simba, you have to earn some gas and get me a pack of lions back, so that you don't have to worry about any danger."
Simba walked in front of Xu Wenjie, with a huge body, like a calf. Xu Wenjie only found out at this time that Simba's hair seemed to be longer than when he first saw it, especially the huge body, and he was a little scared when he looked at it.
Before ten o'clock, Xu Wenjie heard the horn of the car, and he took Simba and ran in the direction of the wooden house, this guy seemed to have forgotten something.
"Brother Laura, you're here."
Hearing Xu Wenjie's voice, Nalola, who was leaning on the car door and smoking, raised her head and looked at this young man from the East, thinking that he should look listless for a night, but he didn't expect to be energetic now.
"Hey, Wenjie, it looks like you've had a great night, I thought you'd lose sleep. I heard that you are going to buy a car, and you are going to live here permanently. ”
"Oh, Brother Narolla, I am indeed going to live here for a long time and run this grassland. You've probably heard of Prairie Ranch, and I'm going to develop this place into a Prairie Ranch, what do you think? ”
Narola shook her head, she didn't expect this young man from the East to have such thoughts. However, running a grassland ranch in Africa is not as simple as he thinks, and he has seen too many people fail, and finally has to buy the ranch and leave.
"I don't know why you suddenly want to run a grassland ranch, but I still have to give you kind advice, that thing requires a lot of money and professional personnel. In addition, grassland ranches are generally operated at a loss in the early stage, and only after they are developed, will there be tourists and make money. ”
"Thank you, Brother Nalola, I think you misunderstood my consciousness, let's go, let's talk on the way. Oh! Simba, what are you doing, hurry up and get out of the car. ”
Xu Wenjie looked at Simba standing on the roof of the car, not knowing where this guy came from, and before that Lola could figure out what was going on, Simba's huge figure appeared in front of him.
Seeing a male lion appear in front of him, Narola instantly reached for the gun at his waist, and a frightened expression appeared on his face.
And at this time, Xu Wenjie also reacted, Simba forgot to tell Na Lola about it, he hurriedly stepped forward, hugged Simba's neck, and said to Na Lola: "Don't be nervous, brother, don't be nervous, this is my lion, you see he won't bite you, Simba sit down." ”
Seeing Simba sitting there obediently under Xu Wenjie's order, looking at himself, Nalola, who had already pulled out half of the pistol, had a brief pause in his brain, and he didn't believe that what he saw was real.
Although I have heard that there are people who can get along with lions, it takes a long time to develop a relationship with them. In a situation like Xu Wenjie, after only one night in the grassland, he became friends with a lion, and it was the first time he had seen it.
Na Laura was a little excited, a little puzzled, and looked at Xu Wenjie's eyes differently. I thought to myself, this can be the magic of the Orientals.
"W-what's going on?"
Seeing that Narola was not pulling out a gun, Xu Wenjie asked Simba to go to the side to play, so as to ease the tension and fear in Nalola's heart, and then explained: "This is the lion I met on the grassland after you left yesterday, and I named it Simba. When I met Simba, I was only three meters away from him, and I was more scared than you, my whole body trembled, my body couldn't even move, and I couldn't lift the gun in my hand. I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect Simba to bite me, just lying there and watching me. ”
Finding that Narolla's expression was a little soothing, Xu Wenjie continued: "After a long time, I found that Simba ignored me, and the fear in my heart gradually calmed down at that time, and then I was curious about lions. You know, if we want to see lions there, we have to go to the zoo and see the lions in the cages. So I slowly approached Simba until I was standing next to it, and this guy ignored me......"
When Narola heard Xu Wenjie's words, she didn't believe it, the lions on the grassland are all wild, they are full of wildness, and their attacks are very strong. Especially with this kind of huge male lion, at a distance of three meters, there is even a slim chance of resistance.
"Then I gave it a little bit of food to eat, and it ended up like this."
Although this explanation is full of loopholes, no one would have thought of such a magical thing as having an animal heart, and no one could explain why the lion would become his good friend, they would only think that Xu Wenjie was lucky and had a relationship with this lion.
"You're lucky, it seems that I understand why you want to build a grassland pasture here, but just an obedient lion is not enough for you to build a grassland pasture."
"Well, I know that, but since Simba and I met for the first time and were able to become friends, I'm sure it's not difficult to be with other animals."
Na Lola didn't say anything, he also saw that he had helped him in the past, and the old Mr. Xu Peiwen had kindly reminded Xu Wenjie.
"Simba, you stay and watch the house, don't let the other animals come over, mess up my luggage, I'll follow Brother Narola to buy a car."
"Let's go, brother, I want to ask you something on the way."
……
After listening to Xu Wenjie's question, Na Luo thought for a while and said, "If you have electricity, you can prepare a generator and solar panels." As for water, you can only pump groundwater, but it can be a problem when the water table drops during the dry season above the grasslands. As for the network you mentioned, I can't help it, I can only solve it with the government, but it's difficult. ”
Xu Wenjie knows that these are all problems with money, and if he has money, these are not problems. It's a pity that the more than one million in his hand is only enough to improve the infrastructure of the place where he lives.
"Oh, I know that, Brother Laura, can you please help me find some people to renovate the wooden house."
"Repair the house, wait, don't you say, I forgot one thing, in your grassland, in fact, there is an ancient castle, which was built by the former European colonists, it is the house of the British colonizer Baron Makanara, which is very magnificent, and finally passed on to your relatives. It's just that because it is too far away from Longa, Mr. Peiwen spent a lot of money to save the animals on the grassland, so he moved out from there, although it has been abandoned for a long time, but there should be no problem with the people. ”
"Oh, there's a place like this, can you take me to see it when you buy a car?"
Xu Wenjie was interested, the castle, that is a very old building, for this kind of building, he has only seen it in movies, and he always feels that this kind of building is full of a sense of mystery.
"Well, maybe you'll like it there, but you're not like your grandfather. Also, the location of that place is exceptional, with a mountain in the back and a river in front, which is great for living. ”
Hearing this, Xu Wenjie became more interested, no matter if, he would go there when he bought a car. If you can, go and live there.
