Chapter Ninety-Six: An Unexpected Visitor
After Liu Yi received the call, he immediately put on his coat, picked up his mobile phone and made a call with his mother, and said directly when the phone was connected: "Mom, I have something to do when I go back to the countryside, and I will come back later!" ”
"What's the matter, and now I have to go back and deal with it?" Mother said with some concern.
"I won't know until I go back what is going on, but don't worry, there is a car, it is very convenient to go back and forth, and the others will come back." Saying that, Liu Yi hung up the phone and ran downstairs.
When I arrived in the countryside, it was completely dark, and the uncle was waiting at the vegetable base. Fortunately, the path at the foot of the mountain has been widened, otherwise you would have to find a flashlight to illuminate it.
Along the cement road on the ground, which was blurred like a white ribbon, Liu Yi walked to the location of the vegetable base after a while, and saw a figure with a flashlight swaying next to the vegetable greenhouse.
"Uncle, what's the matter? It's burning on the phone! Liu Yi dimly saw that the uncle was also over there, so he asked out loud.
"Erwa, come and take a look, the plastic film of this vegetable greenhouse has broken several holes, and everyone is discussing what made it!" When the uncle heard Liu Yi shouting at him, he explained to Liu Yi what was going on.
It turned out that the two villagers who were on shift today found that a hole had been broken in the plastic film wrapped on the outside of the vegetable greenhouse on the edge during their inspection. Seeing that the vegetables inside could not be harvested in a few days, the villagers cherished it very much, so as soon as they found out about the situation, they immediately reported it to other villagers, and the worst news reached Liu Yi's ears.
"Isn't it just a hole, just find some other plastic film to put on it! Now it's like a big thing, all huddled together to watch the fun! Liu Yi was a little unimpressed after listening to the uncle's words.
"That's all there is to it, and then everyone went into the greenhouse to see if the vegetables inside were affected, and guessed ...... "Uncle is still a little mysterious."
"What did you find! Are vegetables affected in any way? Liu Yi really couldn't guess.
"Those villagers who went in to check found that the plastic film had been torn open, and the vegetables growing next to it had traces of being eaten by unknown animals." The uncle didn't hide it, and went inside as he spoke.
"Oh, what animal did it, and did you find any clues?" Liu Yi asked curiously, but there was some indescribable feeling in his heart.
"Since the villager found the hole, he has stayed there and guarded it, and he has not found anything until now, I wonder if he came at night."
"Then you don't need so many people now, and they specially called me back, I haven't eaten dinner until now!" Liu Yi thought to himself that there was some fuss in the village, and now you see so many people with flashlights, even if the animal that committed the crime came to find out about the situation, it would turn around and run away.
But after all the coming, Liu Yi still decided to go into the greenhouse to see the bite of vegetables and fruits, Liu Yi took a villager's flashlight and walked towards the damaged plastic film.
When Liu Yi found that the plastic film was damaged, it was against the ground, indicating that it was indeed done by some kind of animal, and when he looked at the condition of the bitten vegetables and fruits, Liu Yi's head suddenly exploded!
"It can't be a few dogs coming over to steal food, right?" This was Liu Yi's initial thought, but then he thought: "Aren't there vegetables and fruits in the greenhouse in his hometown, the quality is even higher, and Liu Yi didn't restrict the dogs from eating it!" Then a smart dog won't make such a low-level mistake. Besides, the hole is not very big, and if the dog wants to come in, it is difficult to squeeze even the smallest point into it. ”
Considering the appearance of the dogs stealing vegetables in the greenhouse, the reason here must be attracted by the ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggplants in the greenhouse!
Figured it out, now it's completely figured out. Walking to the uncle who was still talking with other villagers outside, Liu Yi said to him: "I said uncle, there are not so many people here, it's freezing outside when you stand outside, just leave one or two." ”
"Okay, okay!" As the uncle spoke, he informed everyone to go back one by one.
The eldest uncle and cousin took the initiative to stay and take care of the vegetable greenhouse, and Liu Yi hadn't eaten dinner yet, so he was ready to go home. But the uncle stopped him: "It's too late to go back now, I think I'll eat something at my house and go back, there are still a lot of meals that haven't been eaten in the evening, just heat it up." ”
Liu Yi said yes again and again, thinking that his mother had always gone to bed early, and now it would be troublesome to go back and get food by herself. I took out the phone and called my mother back, and gave her a brief explanation of what happened here.
There are indeed a lot of leftovers at the uncle's house tonight, Liu Yi is a little puzzled, what's wrong, those construction workers are polite when they eat, but later I learned that Liu Yi had a treat at noon today, and the workers were very full, and they didn't work during the day, and they weren't very hungry at night!
Taking advantage of the aunt's hot meal, Liu Yi ate it so deliciously, but before the meal was finished, the uncle called and said: "Now I know what kind of animal broke the plastic film, and now we have caught two." ”
After listening to the uncle's words, Liu Yi hurriedly finished the remaining food in the bowl in one go, and couldn't help but say, "What kind of animal is it, I'll go over and see it right away." ”
Liu Yi was very curious, and also wanted to see what kind of animal had such a keen sense of smell, and through a layer of plastic film, he broke the greenhouse and ran to steal vegetables.
"Come and see for yourself, this thing is really hard to get!" The uncle didn't tell Liu Yiming what kind of animal it was, and hung up the phone after speaking.
This time when he went out, Liu Yi brought a flashlight given to him by his aunt, and with the lighting, Liu Yi walked faster on that part of the road, and after a while, he saw the uncle and the cousin surrounding an upside-down back basket, just like the last time the back basket in the house buckled the rock eagle.
Directly shining the light of the flashlight under the back basket, there was something moving inside, and it was dark and mushy that he couldn't see clearly, Liu Yi hurriedly walked to the side of the back basket, and took a closer look, isn't this a hedgehog!
Then Liu Yi felt very puzzled, now that the early winter is weather, although it has not reached the coldest time, don't hedgehogs all want to hibernate? Why are there still hedgehogs here?
As soon as Liu Yi said what he thought in his heart, the uncle and cousin were not very clear, only the uncle said: "This thing, we often see it in the land of the mountain, but it is indeed gone as soon as it is winter." ”
It is a habit of hedgehogs to hibernate in winter, unless they encounter special circumstances, they will not wake up or wake up and fall asleep quickly, and they will not eat, but the scene in front of them completely subverts the knowledge in books.
"Who around here has done anything today?" Liu Yi estimated who disturbed the hedgehog hibernation, and after they woke up, they couldn't resist the temptation of the smell of the greenhouse vegetables planted by Liu Yi, otherwise such an unbelievable thing would not have happened.
"No one is doing anything today!" Uncle thought a little.
"Erwa, today the old Liu family is digging on the edge of the greenhouse, preparing to plant some vegetables for themselves, and the land was still on fire at that time, and I told him to be careful!" Today was supposed to be the big brother on duty, or the big brother was aware of what was going on around today.
"That's it, the hedgehog must have hibernated in his soil, awakened by a wildfire lit by the wild grass, but the hedgehog's nest may be on the edge of the wildfire, and it didn't burn it." Liu Yi analyzed.
"Why did they break the plastic film and go into the greenhouse to eat vegetables?" Uncle was also a little puzzled.
"The hedgehog's sense of smell is still quite sensitive, maybe it's a coincidence! However, I think that in the future, a fence should be built around the greenhouse, otherwise other slightly larger animals will not be damaged by the plastic film in the future, and even the steel frame may be damaged. ”
Liu Yi knew in his heart that it was the vegetables, and these vegetables were very attractive to animals, but he didn't dare to tell anyone. I hurriedly talked about other things, diverted the topic, and said that building a fence is also to prevent the impact of the fatal temptation of vegetables on other animals, and now there are not many animals around in winter, but after the beginning of spring, it is not impossible to prevent it.
