Chapter 437: Prelude to the Hunt
* Dizzy, in the revision just now, I almost took a nap and it's only eight o'clock now! Thank you for your tips and monthly passes, and thank you for your support! The speed of the worm goes to the next chapter, about ten o'clock.
It took nearly two hours to return to Augusta from Helena, and by the time I got home, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
On the way, Qin Yihu made up a message such as "The big wild boar is very powerful, Angel's little white has grown up, it must be a powerful little white pig" and other words to coax the little girl, and then learned about the current situation from Ruiqier.
This afternoon, Ryan and Hobbs split up, and the loaded cowboys went on a manhunt at the ranch.
Although it has not been found yet, it is already certain that the boar monster did enter the pasture, because during the search, some hoof prints were found, and some pastures were arched by wild boars.
With these traces left by the boar monster, after exchanging information between the two, they roughly determined the activity area of the boar monster, but it was getting late, and it was really difficult to fight the wild boar monster at night, and it was more dangerous, so they temporarily retreated, planning to wait until dawn tomorrow before continuing the search.
The ranch was really invaded by a super wild boar, and everyone was a little nervous and excited, after all, the super boar monster with a height of one meter seven at the shoulder, if it touched the living area, it would accelerate and collide, and it would not poke a hole in the house!
Therefore, the night can not be relaxed, the ranch and the farm have arranged cowboys to be on duty at night, one by one loaded with guns, encountering a big wild boar not to say to kill the enemy, but how much can play a warning role.
The news that the ranch was mixed with the boar monster had spread all over Augusta in an afternoon, after all, such a super wild boar was big news even in the whole of Montana!
A lot of farmers who have a good relationship with the ranch. While doing the prevention work, they contacted Ryan or Hobbes, and they all said that they would participate in tomorrow's round-up, in their words: to do their part for the prosperity and stability of Augusta!
In fact, the help of the farmers is part of it, and there is also that. I am really curious about the big wild boar, and if I don't participate in such a wonderful and exciting major event, I am afraid that I will miss the rich show-off capital, and it will be too late to regret it in the future!
The thoughts of the farmers, Lane and the others naturally knew, but they were still happy to let them participate.
Although there are enough cowboys in the pasture, too many are drawn, which will affect the grazing work, since so many farmers are very enthusiastic. Why not!
And the fact that everyone fights the boar monster side by side is also an excellent opportunity to deepen the good relationship between the two sides.
So in the afternoon, in addition to searching for the wild boar monster, the two were in contact with the farmers to discuss the arrangements for tomorrow's round-up.
And now that Qin Yi has returned to the ranch, these news have naturally been reported in one go, and he feels that the two of them have handled it very well, so he doesn't care about it anymore. They are still in charge of the implementation of these tasks.
As soon as she returned to the pasture, Angel couldn't wait to find the big wild boar. I'm afraid I'll eat roast wild boar for dinner!
The adults were amused, although they also wanted to see it, but they were not as urgent as the little girl, and comforted her, so that she understood the truth that "it is dangerous to find a big wild boar at night", and Qin's mother took her to cook. Promise to make more delicious food.
In this way, the little girl became happy, and obediently followed her grandmother to the kitchen, and soon the fragrance was slow, and it smelled like a piece of meat. Sure enough, after a while, the little girl came out with a small bowl of meat and invited everyone to eat together!
The family is still happy, but the atmosphere is a little weird compared to the past.
Whenever I think of a big wild boar, it may be swaying not far away, and everyone has some novelty and excitement in their hearts, and their faces are faintly excited.
Expecting the big guy not to leave at night, and worrying that it would crash into the living quarters stupidly.
After dinner, although we haven't seen each other yet, everyone can't sleep, so they just gather in the living room and laugh.
Of course, this is the pastime of Sousa and Colo, as well as the two sisters.
Angel's careful thinking became faster, she was already playing with the little animals at this time, and Mother Qin was watching with a smile on the sidelines, which had become a habit.
Qin Yi moved a few barrels of beer, got some large pieces of beef jerky and peanuts, and put them all on the pickup, and instructed McGee and the big cat to stay at home, get into the car with black rice and wheat, and walk around the living area to deliver them to the cowboys on night duty.
Every time he went to a cowboy camp, Qin Yi sat down, drank a drink with the cowboys around the bonfire, blowing the cool breeze, looking at the bright moon on the grassland, and eating simple appetizers!
It's just a little bit of concern, but the cowboys are happy.
But when you leave, you still have to remind them to drink less, but in fact, it doesn't matter, cowboys are measured, and they have never made a mistake because of drinking.
And everyone shares the beer, each person is only three or five cups, which is to be tasted overnight, except for the first cup of cow drink, who doesn't drink slowly after a small sip?
It's such a good beer, and the idiot just drank it all at once!
Back in the main house, it was ten o'clock and I was still not sleepy, only Angel was a good boy, and I dozed off with the fat Teddy in my arms, and my saliva flowed to the door of the little fat bear's head!
This made the little guy very innocent, and he looked at Qin Yi with his small black eyes, looking like he was begging for help!
At this time, Qin's mother, who prepared bath water for her, went downstairs, patted the little fat bear twice, rescued it, and took her little granddaughter to take a bath and sleep.
The adults also went back to the house, and although they were not too sleepy, it was late after all.
However, Qin Yi and the three of them will not worry about being bored at night, the young couple is tired of being in bed, and some things are done
The next day, everyone got up early in the morning, like the New Year, their faces were full of excitement, it seemed that everyone was looking forward to the upcoming wild boar war!
At this time, Susa and Kolo had already changed into a full set of denim clothes, and even Qin's mother and Sara, who were not usually used to wearing like this, also put on riding boots and leather trousers, although they were a little twisted, but from time to time they pulled the corners of their clothes to look, it was still a little novel.
It seems that they don't plan to miss the round-up of the big wild boar.
The family had breakfast, and just after 7 a.m., Ryan and Hobbs arrived.
There is also a cowboy dress that looks heroic and sassy, with a lot of revolvers and shotguns, and a half-large cattle dog at her feet, which is a puppy born in early spring.
Of course, it hasn't grown up now, and it's still a lot worse!
Of the nearly twenty newborn cattle dogs in the spring, only a few remained in the pasture, and the rest were taken by Burke to the Wobe Lake Ranch, where everything was created and such a strong and well-behaved cattle dog was needed to help herd.
But now, the puppies are still being born, and according to Ryan's estimates, by this time next year, the needs of the ranch will be fully met.
Angel, who was also dressed as a little cowboy and carrying a water spray gun, greeted everyone happily, greeted everyone first, touched the head of the half-large cattle dog, giggled and played, and a group of small animals behind her also had their heads, and the two sides sniffed each other to say hello.
Everyone sat and chatted in the living room, and it didn't take long for farmers to come one after another, most of them with one or two cowboys, and some came directly with their sons or sons-in-law, which can be regarded as father-son soldiers!
The time soon came to 8 o'clock in the morning, and when it was the appointed time, the farmers were all there.
In addition to Walker, Jones, and Marcus, there are also some traditional small ranchers and flower farms, which are neighbors, or the parents of Angel's friends, and everyone has a good relationship and just comes to join in the fun.
A total of fifty or sixty people came, all with pistols on their waists and shotguns on their backs, looking elated, not at all nervous, some only curious and expectant. (To be continued.) )
