Thanks to the third fan of this book, "Qin Ang", it is not easy to write a book, so let's encourage everyone. Hereinafter:

――――

When Shi Lei returned to the pasture, the last batch of beef cattle had been placed in a separate corral, waiting to be grazed with other livestock tomorrow. Shi Lei finished transforming this batch of beef cattle one by one. Seeing that there was nothing to do, Hanks let all the dogs go and let them help take care of the herd during the night.

The dogs have wide Kevlar collars around their necks, both to show that the dogs are owner-owned, and to protect their relatively fragile necks in case they need to fight wild animals. Now trusted by all cowboys, they act as night guards.

Shi Lei, who was idle, went back to the house and began to chat with his relatives and friends on the other side of the ocean, nothing more than showing off the experience of going to the shooting range to shoot targets today, so that his buddies who were on duty scolded him while drooling. He also updated the photos of the mythical beasts he had recently accumulated, as well as various firearms, photos of the shooting range, etc., to his blog to earn some eyeballs.

Finally, we must not forget that we must talk to the beautiful Laura and exchange feelings, so as to maintain the relationship between men and women, which is still relatively pure.

After chatting, Shi Lei washed away the fatigue of the day and threw himself into the comfortable bed.

Just when Shi Lei was sleeping in a daze, he heard a burst of barking of dogs, and then a gunshot rang out, which cowboy should have shot. Before long, there was a knock on the door of the main room.

Shi Lei grabbed his clothes and ran downstairs, and saw Hanks and them standing in front of the door of the main room in full gear.

"Why did you shoot, what happened? Has anyone been hurt? Shi Lei asked eagerly.

"Don't worry, boss, everyone is fine." Hanks, when they heard that Shi Lei's first concern was their safety, they couldn't help but feel warm in their hearts.

"It was supposed to be a mountain lion (one of the many names for the cougar) who killed a sheep, but it was spotted by our dogs, and when I ran out, I vaguely saw the dogs driving it away and fired a shot to scare it away. We came and asked if you need to kill it, lest you continue to plague the animals in the future. Hanks explained.

In fact, Hanks and the others are also a little worried about Shi Lei's safety, because Shi Lei only has two dogs guarding him, and Shi Lei has no gun in his hand to protect himself, so they have to come over first to ensure Shi Lei's safety.

What's more, Shi Lei, the boss, is very good in their opinion, very considerate of his subordinates, and the salary he gives is high, so he has no distance from them but mingles with them.

"Let's go, let's go and have a look, if we can capture it alive, try to capture it alive, but if it threatens your safety, shoot it directly."

Shi Lei was also curious about a big cat like a cougar, thinking that if he could be caught alive, he could transform it as his pet, so handsome and stylish. So, Shi Lei got dressed and took black and white impermanence to set off with the cowboys.

"Stone, don't go, it's a bit dangerous, and you don't have a gun." Hanks was still a little worried about Shi Lei's safety and wanted to stop Shi Lei.

"It's okay, isn't it you? Besides, I'll stay in my Raptor pickup all the time, it can't hurt me," Shi Lei finished speaking, and drove the pickup truck to chase after the cowboys.

The Raptor pickup truck is equipped with a row of roof lights, which can provide good lighting and a large field of view at night, so it is also suitable for this use.

The body of the pickup truck contains two dogs, the seventh and eighth masters, and one difference between them and other dogs is that they are all wearing custom-made full-body kevlar clothes, which provide maximum protection without affecting their movements. This is also the source of Shi Lei's confidence.

By the time Shi Lei and the others followed the barking of the dogs to find the dogs, the animal that had come to the ranch to poach had been surrounded by the dogs, and the dogs were besieging the intruders in a measured manner, all of them were in good spirits and uninjured, on the other hand, the mountain lion, the situation looked very bad.

Under the illumination of Shi Lei's many car lights, the fighting scene appeared to be unobstructed. The dogs' collars have special reflective strips for easy identification at night.

The besieged intruder was supposed to be a male cougar, about 1.3 meters long, with a long tail trying to maintain his balance, and a pair of wide and powerful front paws preventing the dogs from delivering a fatal blow to him.

From time to time, the cougar jumped several meters to break through the encirclement of the dogs, but was stopped by the fast dogs, and the reflexes of the dogs would occasionally seize the opportunity to leave deep wounds on the cougar.

Now that the cougar is covered in blood, it seems that it is only a matter of time before the dogs take it down without the help of the cowboys.

The seventh and eighth masters in the car jumped out of the car directly after receiving Shi Lei's signal, and quickly joined the battle group.

However, unlike other dogs' attacks, after the slender and tall seventh master attracted the attention of the mountain lion, the short and strong eighth master suddenly rushed up and knocked the panicked mountain lion to the ground, leaving several deep wounds on the mountain lion's body with his powerful front paws.

Hanks, who was next to him, saw the opportunity to shoot the tranquilizer gun that had been prepared a long time ago, and the eighth master was very cooperative and jumped to the side, so this shot hit the cougar's chest very accurately, and the mountain lion, who had been seeking to break through surrounded by dogs, slowly fell to the ground.

When the cougar was completely down and couldn't move, Shi Lei got out of the car, came to Hanks' side, and patted Hanks on the shoulder.

"Well done, Hanks. Looks like I can learn my marksmanship from you. ”

"Thank you. These dogs are the best, they are so powerful that they don't leave a chance for the mountain lion, and they can take care of this mountain lion without us. ”

Hanks was very pleased with the dogs' expression, and the cowboys around him nodded in agreement.

"Is this mountain lion anesthetized? How long does it last? Shi Lei asked.

"This anesthetic elephant will be numbed if it is hit, and this dose is enough for it to sleep until tomorrow afternoon. What are you going to do with this mountain lion? Hanks explained.

"I'm going to try to see if I can tame it, doesn't it mean that mountain lions are easy to accept domestication by humans." Shi Lei is absolutely confident in this.

"That's usually raised from a young age." Hanks was a little worried.

"It's okay, I can keep it on a leash and wait until I'm sure it's tamed before I think I'll let it go. Besides, there are still the seventh and eighth masters, and it will not pose any threat. Shi Lei tried to solve Hanks's worries.

"Okay then, but you'd better be safe, and you'd better wait until you bring your gun before you think about letting it out." Hanks was still a little uneasy.

"Okay, don't worry." Shi Lei felt that it would be good to surprise them when the time came.

After moving this cougar to Shi Lei's pickup and arranging for the seventh and eighth masters to continue to watch it, everyone sorted out their things and went back to make up for sleep.

However, back in the main room, Hanks still found a large iron cage to put the cougar in, and found a spare collar and chain for the dogs to tie it up, and then returned to his room with peace of mind.

Shi Lei couldn't sleep peacefully. First, he took out a complete set of veterinary equipment to treat the wounds all over the big cat, and then pressed his hand on it and began to transform. Of course, its wound still can't be healed now, that can't be explained.

This big cat will definitely surprise everyone, because Shi Lei has made it a combination of the advantages of all big cats.

It has the strength of a liger, the speed of a leopard, the agility of a clouded leopard, the bite force of a jaguar, and the swimming ability of a fishing cat. Combined with the tricks of various felines, such as the leopard's aerial turn, the snow leopard's aerial turn, etc., and of course, the cougar's own superb jumping ability. In this way, it will definitely turn into an invincible killing machine.

After everything was done, Shi Lei went back to make up for sleep with some satisfaction.

The next morning, Shi Lei undoubtedly slept lazily.

I first looked at the cougar that was still sleeping, and found that although it looked miserable now, with open skin and flesh, the wounds had stopped bleeding, and even many of them had begun to scab.

Shi Lei, who was relieved, went to the beach for a walk slowly, which not only replenished the energy of the system, but also saw a lot of turbulent scenery, which was really refreshing.

Shi Lei, who was a little angry, couldn't help but think of Laura's angry twin peaks, and I don't know when the relationship between the two will become less pure.

Shi Lei, who couldn't lift his spirits, simply didn't go to the grassland, ran directly to the main room, and watched the shootout movie alone in the entertainment center with advanced equipment, and by the way, he looked forward to his heroic posture with a gun. Feeling that he was not enough, he picked up the PS game console and began to play gunfight games on the big screen in the entertainment center.

When Shi Lei finally came out of the house, he found that Hanks and the others had all returned, standing in front of the main house and looking curiously at the cougar who woke up.

When Shi Lei saw that it woke up, he asked Gonzalez to drag the sheep he had bitten to death, and then asked Garcia, who had the best skills, to be responsible for skinning the sheep and getting a few pieces of meat for the cougars to eat.

Garcia peeled and cramped as nimble as a cow, and the knife flew up and down in his hand. The beautiful marbling of the peeled lamb amazed a group of cowboys, and of course raised a lot of questions.

Shi Lei touched his nose with a little weakness next to him, fortunately, they were all a group of big bosses, and no one cared too much about this. It seems that it is time to go back and bring in Maifan stones and herbs, and there is no way to explain if this situation is not encountered again.

Seeing the cougar swallowing fresh mutton very vigorously, Shi Lei was completely relieved. But there's one thing that needs to be solved right away, and that's to give it a name.

Shi Lei thought about it carefully, this must have a powerful and domineering name, well, let's call it a hairball, so happily decided.

After the name is told to the cowboys and the cougar is told through the spirit, the name is settled.

After watching the hairballs eat, Shi Lei, who satisfied his bad taste, returned to the house very proudly.

I have to call Jack Lee, the barrister, and ask him to help with the procedures for adopting a cougar or something, this thing is a beast after all, not something you can raise if you want to.

On the phone, Jack Lee said that as long as he has money, it will be easy to do, so that Shi Lei can rest assured.

In the end, Shi Lei invited Jack Lee and the two beauties to come to Stone Ranch as guests next weekend, and Jack Lee happily agreed.
