I haven't seen each other for more than a month, which is a rare and ordinary thing for this family, since Han Xuan went out to college and started his own business, he has often been separated from his parents, and his father Han Qianshan has long been used to it.

At the beginning, every time she came home from outside, her mother would entertain her son with big fish and meat, but now she is too lazy to do it, so she only asked Joanna to help make some cheese and ham sandwiches, and she can make do with lunch.

For the return of the owner, McDull, Panther, Lion and Tiger Beast Xiaobai and other animals are very happy, but their appearance is a little sluggish, especially Xiaobai, who has a problem with his body.

Snoopy leaned over and sniffed Obama's body, which was a little different in his eyes, but the body odor told him that it was his friend.

The two guys soon got together and fought, and the Alaskan Sled Dog was no match for the Bengal Tiger at all, and was easily overwhelmed by Obama.

The evergreen lawn at the entrance now has a withered yellow color visible to the naked eye, and the small white wildflowers are wilting, and it seems that they will fall down at any moment.

The entire snow-capped mountain ranch seems to be sick, and it is not lightly ill.

Like an old man who is dying, everything seems sluggish and sickly, as if he has entered the old age of life, and his vitality has been drained.

In addition to these visible differences, Han Xuan always felt that there seemed to be something missing, as if a part of his soul had been cut open, and there was an uncomfortable feeling, Pooh and Little Barry were dazed, and they seemed to be aware of it.

I can't say exactly what it was, but I can clearly appreciate the difference between this place and the past.

So much so that Han Xuan was so uncertain that he drove around the snow-capped mountain ranch, hoping to find the root cause of his confusion.

Anya was taken by her mother to help out in the vegetable plantation, and Han Xuan sat alone in the Humvee to check the changes in the pasture.

No wonder Daddy is in such a hurry, the situation is really serious.

When I came to the shore of Lake Rota, I accidentally found a large area floating on the surface of the lake, and when I got closer, I realized that it was all dead fish.

There are bighead carp, pike, bastards and the like, and some fish float to the shore, and the ducks are prepared to eat them.

Among them, there was a large golden carp with a body length of nearly 80 centimeters, which was beating weakly, and the fish landed on the shore and was bullied by ducks, and the scales on its body were lost a lot.

Han Xuan walked over and lifted it into the water, and the big carp flicked its tail and floated on the surface of the water and swam slowly, wondering if it would survive.

In the shallow water near the shore, lotus flowers in full bloom have dropped their pink petals, revealing a yellow lotus canopy.

The birch trees are blown by the wind, and there are also green leaves falling, these are very abnormal, and after living in the snowy mountain pasture for so long, such a strange thing has never happened.

Animals love to come here, and you can often see white-tailed deer, elk and other animals.

But this time he walked all the way to the treehouse, and found no sign of them, but saw some dead insects, and the ground seemed to be covered with a layer of ash, and later realized that they were all fireflies.

It was so silent that he couldn't hear the sound of the birds, Han Xuan hugged the fat man who was about to be paralyzed and asked it, "It's changed here, right?" ”

Fat Ding didn't understand what the master meant by "changed", but he still nodded.

It used to be very fond of the snowy mountain pastures, there are things that attract it, but now it can't feel it, dancing and gesturing something......

Once upon a time, the Snow Mountain Ranch was the pride of cowboys, and when they told others about their work, they would give a thumbs up and praise the magical place, and envy the good fortune of being able to work at the Snow Mountain Ranch.

Staying here all day, they are very familiar with every plant and tree, and when there is a change, it is the cowboys who first notice it, and later the researchers find that the Act content has dropped significantly.

During this time, the cowboys worked harder, and many cattle and sheep began to develop various diseases and need to be taken care of, but there was no way to stop the fact that the content of acts was getting less and less.

As night falls.

When Han Xuan took the specialties he bought from Huaxia and went to visit the old Barton's house, he found that John Sr., Anderson, Martinez, and Alexander were also there.

They all had sad faces, their hair was dirty, and they could still smell the smell of sweat and smoke on their bodies, as if they were tired, and each of them had a glass of beer in front of them.

You don't have to think about it to guess what these people were talking about just now, Han Xuan smiled and said, "It's all here, that's great, I don't have to send it from door to door."

There are a lot of souvenirs I brought back from China and Japan in the car, and I took some with myself when I left. ”

"What are you doing in the afternoon, I saw you driving past where I was grazing."

Martinez, a black cowboy, said with a smile.

He is not in a very good mood, recently everyone has been talking about the fact that the Snow Mountain Ranch is about to end, how can he be in a good mood.

Other jobs have changed, but for the western cowboys, the ranch is more like home.

Barton Sr. and John Sr. have been working here for most of their lives, and this is home, and the cowboys are sad about what is happening now.

Seeing Han Xuan, they squeezed out smiling faces one after another, and Old John said: "I haven't seen you for more than a month, you seem to have grown taller again, how are you going to Asia, and the business is okay?" ”

"It's all pretty good, if it weren't for my dad telling me that something happened to the ranch, I would have planned to play for a while.

In the afternoon, I looked around the ranch and found that there were a lot of dead fish in Lake Rota, do you know when these strange things happened? ”

"Another fish is dead?"

Old Barton spoke, rubbed his temples and continued: "The day before yesterday, I just had a batch of dead fish cleaned up, and several tall sturgeons three or four meters long died.

Zoologists brought them back to study and found no germs or anything like that, but they were not old enough to die, and the cause of death was inexplicable.

About 20 days ago, the grass in one meadow suddenly withered, and then slowly spread around.

Nothing strange like this has happened since your father took over the Snow Mountain Ranch, and the grass has been growing so well that we don't need to bother to take care of it at all.

Later, the situation got worse and worse, and the pastures in several surrounding places also showed similar symptoms, and the people from the agricultural company did not know the reason and told us that the seeds were fine.

On the other side of Gonzalez's ranch, a disease began to appear in the past few days, and thousands of cattle in several cattle pens died overnight.

It had been incinerated and landfilled, and Gonzalez Jr. almost went mad......"

If there is a cause for the abnormality, you should start looking for it from the source, Han Xuan's heart moved, and he said: "Do you remember where it started to wither in the first place, take me to see it now." ”

"Now?"

Old Barton looked at the night outside the window, stood up and said, "Let's go, I've been there several times, and there's nothing strange about it."

Bring a flashlight, there's a hole dug there, I almost fell last time......"
