Time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, it has been a month since Jing Zhiguo returned to Jingjiagou. In this small month, the green of the countryside has become a little deeper, and it has really entered the middle of summer.

Jing Zhiguo is a little tanned, and he is much stronger. In the first days when I went up the mountain, Jing Zhiguo was so tired that my back and legs hurt, but now I am used to it, and I run on the mountain all day long, and I am full of energy.

Not counting the physical growth in strength, Jing Zhiguo also knows a lot about things in the countryside, of course, he knows a lot and doesn't know a lot for nothing, and he has also experienced a painful lesson.

Every day with the second son of the Qi family to go up the mountain to herd cattle, Jing Zhiguo felt that the cow was a kind of overly responsible livestock, just lowered his head to eat grass all day long, and ate grass wherever he was driven, and rarely moved his nest to eat grass elsewhere.

When eating grass, the eyes rarely look at other things and other places, and sometimes they look up and make a call, but this is rare.

The cow is very greedy, and when it comes to the meadow, the cow can eat it all the time, and it will be a day. The ox also listens to the call, as long as someone calls it, it listens, and tells it to go wherever it goes, unlike horses, donkeys, and mules that sometimes do not obey the call.

The ox is so honest, it is estimated that someone rides on its back, and it will not stumble like horses, donkeys, mules and other livestock, definitely not!

Once, when the children were chatting together, Jing Zhiguo asked the second son of the Qi family, you herd cattle every day, why haven't you ever seen you riding a bull?

The second boy glanced at Jing Zhiguo, Niu Tuosheng is not for people to ride, but for pulling carts and farming. When Jing Zhiguo heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and felt that the second boy was pure nonsense, could it be that it was not possible, what are these cows, horses, donkeys, and mules for, and they have been divided before they are born?

Aren't you afraid that we are going to ride? I was wondering. I heard the two boys say that the ox is not easy to ride, and not everyone can ride it.

Why? You don't know, among the livestock, the most difficult to ride is the ox, you ask why, let's tell you, because the skin on the back of the cow is alive, can be strung back and forth, just like a human --, Speaking of this, I don't know what, the two boys stopped, and a few boys sitting in a row on the hillside were listening with their ears pricked up, and when they saw that the two boys didn't say anything, they got up in a hurry, but you said!

Grinding and grinding! The second boy blinked, glanced at Hua Zi, who was sitting at the head of the handle, touched the head of the bullwhip to the ground, and drew a piece of object on the ground.

Na Huazi was looking down the mountain at this time, and he didn't pay attention to what these boys were saying, and when he heard the laughter, he turned his head and glanced at the group of boys in confusion.

The second boy blushed, what are you laughing at? If you don't believe it, you can try, whoever dares to ride, let's help him choose an honest one to ride!

When a group of boys heard this, they laughed even more happily. The second boy of the Qi family didn't understand what everyone was laughing at for a while, so he became a little anxious, and added, that day of bullfighting, didn't you see that Liu Si'er had a scar on his head?

Isn't that he going to ride the black head, and as soon as he stepped up, he made the black head turn around, and the horn just stabbed him in the head, making his face bloody, not bad, not stabbing him in the eye!

Liu Si'er's matter, presumably this guy knows everything except Jing Zhiguo, and a few boys paused for a moment, and they suddenly laughed even more happily.

At this time, the second boy of the Qi family seemed to understand that what he was thinking was not the same thing as everyone laughing, his face became even more swollen, and he also laughed.

Laughing enough, Jing Zhiyi said, the second boy is right, we have ridden the bull, it is not good to ride, riding up, you have to tightly grasp the skin on the front neck of the cow, this can be ridden, otherwise, the skin on the back of the cow is running back and forth, and you can't walk a few steps, you have to slide down.

At this time, the second boy of the Qi family approached Jing Zhiguo and whispered, they don't know, in fact, the cow is the best to ride, but you have to be able to ride!

Let's tell you, don't tell them, or they'll ride every day and smash the cow out of the fat.

Seeing Jing Zhiguo nodded, the second boy of the Qi family whispered to Jing Zhiguo that he had to ride the back of the cow to ride the bull, and he had to sit on the crotch of the cow.

When they don't come, we'll teach you to ride! Jing Zhiguo and a group of boys are still playing crazy every day in the mountains, Jing Zhiguo thought that the second boy of the Qi family had forgotten to teach him to ride a bull, one morning, he saw an extra horse in the team of cows, particularly beautiful, jujube red, hooves and mane are black.

The second son of the Qi family told Jing Zhiguo that the horse-drawn cart was broken and had to be repaired, and Jing Zhiyi asked him to put the horse with the cow for a day.

When he said this, the second boy was a little proud. It is probably rare for the horse to be so idle, and it is also happy.

When they arrived at the meadow on the mountain, the second son of the Qi family left a long rein for the horse alone, and tied one end of the rope to a tree, so that the horse could graze on the grass around the tree by himself.

The second son of the Qi family said to Jing Zhiguo, Guozi, that day we said that the cow was easy to ride, but it was not interesting to ride the bull! Let's teach you how to ride a horse today!

When Jing Zhiguo heard this, he couldn't believe his ears, he hadn't even thought about it! It's true?

It's true! You can rest assured, this horse is very honest, let ride! We'll be watching from the sidelines! All right! On this day, Jing Zhiguo felt that it was so long!

But all day long, the second boy of the Qi family didn't mention horseback riding. When it was time to go home, the second boy of the Qi family gathered the cattle together, and drove back, holding the reins of the horse in his left hand and the whip in his right hand.

When they got down to the foot of the mountain, the two sons of the Qi family let the cattle go ahead, and the cattle all knew the way and walked home along the way home.

The second boy of the Qi family held the reins of the horse in his hand and shouted--, the big horse stopped. The second boy squatted down on the side of the big horse and said, "Country, come, you hold the horse's mane with your hand and step on our shoulders, and we will arch you to the horse."

The second boy's move really surprised Jing Zhiguo, and a feeling suddenly appeared in his heart, and he was a little hesitant to move.

Guozi, you should hurry up! Jing Zhiguo knocked the soil on his shoes on the ground and stepped on them. The second boy exerted enough strength to get up from the ground, and as soon as Jing Zhiguo deviated from his right leg, he really rode on the horse.

Odd! Riding on the horse, Jing Zhiguo felt that everything had changed, and everything in the world was different from when it was on the flat ground.

The horse has a bright hairy back and a fat hip, and it is really wonderful to sit on the back of that horse! Jing Zhiguo was more or less intoxicated.

But when he sat down, the horse did not go, but stood there, not knowing what they wanted it to do. The second boy of the Qi family said, Guozi, you are shouting!

What's the shout? Shout to drive! It went away, shouting -- and it stopped. Jing Zhiguo shouted, drive! However, the horse did not move, and Jing Zhiguo shouted again with enough strength, drive!

The horse still doesn't move! Huh? Why doesn't it go? The second boy of the Qi family laughed, and then shouted, Drive!

In Jing Zhiguo's ears, the voice was neither high nor loud, but the horse moved forward, Jing Zhiguo was surprised, huh?

You shout, why is it gone? The second boy told Jing Zhiguo that the animal is also a bully, it listens to your milky voice, and it is not afraid of you, so it doesn't listen to you as if it didn't hear it.

As he was talking, there was a small hurdle on the road ahead, and the horse was probably also used to it, and when he saw the small hurdle, he suddenly exerted his strength, and stepped up with his front legs, Jing Zhiguo was unguarded, and he was planted off the horse's back at once, and he fell under the horse's belly.

The horse was really a spiritual animal, it found a person under its belly, and instead of stepping on it, it instantly stretched forward its hind legs and stepped past Jing Zhiguo.

This frightened the second boy of the Qi family, hurriedly stopped the horse, looked at Jing Zhiguo who got up from the ground, saw that there was nothing wrong, and laughed, Guozi, don't ride anymore!

It's not good today, I'll ride it another day! Jing Zhiguo fell off his horse, startled, and as soon as he heard the second boy, he stopped insisting, okay!

Ride it again someday! Jing Zhiguo plays crazy with a group of children all day long, and what makes Jing Zhiguo happiest is that he has learned to climb trees.

While the children were playing on the mountain, they still needed to work. Chopping wood is one of the tasks that children need to do.

Jing Zhiyi's family didn't need Jing Zhiguo's help to do any work, but Jing Zhiguo saw that it was interesting for the children to climb trees and chop firewood, so he also learned to climb trees, learn to chop wood, and help those children.

Stick a knife into a straw rope that is tied around your waist as a belt, climb the tree, cut it, and then climb down from the tree, cut off the leaves from the thick and thin branches that are thrown under the tree, and then hug the cut branches together.

Climbing a tree is a skill. Modern people are not like some animals are born to climb trees, climbing trees is a skill that needs to be learned and practiced to master, the reason why people become people before they were born to climb trees, according to some scientific theories, should be, it may be that after standing upright, some skills have degenerated.

Jing Zhiguo was naturally diligent and studious, and he couldn't climb up at first, so he paid attention to observe and see how those boys climbed trees, and slowly, he understood.

Climbing a tree mainly relies on the limbs, the arms and legs should be strong, with both hands around the trunk, two feet on the trunk, one left and one right, the hands and feet symmetrically move upwards, one by one upward, one by one, this is the beginning.

When you're proficient, you'll be able to use your hands and feet and shrug up the tree like a monkey. In order to learn the skills of climbing trees, when he returned home, it was not too dark, so Jing Zhiguo no longer listened to the chatter of those people in front of the courtyard, but went to the jujube tree in the backyard of Jing Zhiyi's house by himself to practice climbing trees.

The jujube tree was different from ordinary trees, there were thorns between the branches and leaves, but there were no thorns in the trunk, so he practiced on the trunk.

Originally, he was relatively thin, and this thin body helped him, and in less than a month, he practiced it, and he could jump up the tree like a monkey, I don't know if he was born with this talent for climbing trees.

A tree more than ten meters high, Jing Zhiguo can climb to the top of the tree in a few clicks, of course, it is the place where people can stop.

With this ability, Jing Zhiguo always wants to show it, and the same group of boys are chopping wood and climbing trees on the mountain, which is not interesting.

Climb the tree to dig the bird's nest! But the first time he met a nest of newly hatched birds looking at him with small round eyes, so that he couldn't bear to dig it, and the hand that had been stretched out retracted.

So, this digging of the bird's nest became his first and last time. Finally, the opportunity for him to show his ability to climb trees has come.
