Chapter Ninety-Four: A Pack of Capybaras

In the blink of an eye, it was already noon, this was the hottest time of the day in this season, there was not a trace of wind in the air, and the insects in the woods and grass were screaming vigorously, which made everyone very irritable, and it also added to the uncomfortable heat of the heat.

Just when everyone was extremely irritable, they suddenly heard the sound of "Xi Xi Suosuo" from the nearby grass, the sound was not very clear at first, and then it became clearer and clearer, everyone knew that there was a situation, they all buried their heads, and opened their ears to see where the sound came from.

Immediately after that, they heard something "slipping" into the pool, and everyone quickly looked up and found five or six capybaras swimming towards the cage in the middle of the pool.

When the father felt that the time had come, he shouted loudly, and suddenly jumped up from the waterhole, and then all the people, dogs, and little wolves came out and surrounded the city tightly by the waterhole.

The sudden appearance of so many animals scared the few capybaras trapped in the pond and screamed, and they didn't know what to do.

The father told everyone to hold the ropes and slowly drag the cages that were placed in the pools as bait to the shore, and a few sticks stunned the capybaras in the cages, and tied their hooves firmly with a thick vine and hung them from a nearby tree.

After freeing up the cage, they did the same as before, covering another capybara. In this way, all five capybaras in the waterhole were captured alive, knocked unconscious, and tied to a tree with rope.

The father vacated the cage again and handed it to the mother and the full sister to let them put the ducklings in.

Looking up at the sky, my father estimated that the eldest uncle and the others would not be able to go back today, not to mention the duckling cage and these capybaras on the road.

Considering that the stone cave where the night was spent last night was too small, and there were so many people and dogs added today, it must be impossible to live, so my father discussed with my uncle and a few people to open another stone cave next to it, and the uncle and them lived.

The mother and the full sister were responsible for killing a capybara and cooking for everyone, and when they were cooking, they were also busy picking some wild vegetables nearby, such as oolong, gray cabbage, thorn tree sprouts, bamboo shoots and bracken, etc., which can be regarded as improving the food for everyone.

Because there are many dogs today, they are scattered around the residence to guard, they are not afraid, while picking wild vegetables and singing mountain songs, everyone is so happy that everyone laughs vigorously, saying that the family has not been so lively for a long time.

My cousin found a persimmon tree nearby and came back with a half-ripe persimmon in his pocket.

Several men took turns digging holes, and the progress was also very fast, and the people who came down were not idle, so they went to cut down trees, collect dry firewood, and cut the bark of fir trees, and were in full swing.

When you get to work, time flies.

Before you know it, the sun is sinking in the west, and the air is not as hot as at noon.

A new cave has been completely repaired, and even dug a little bigger than yesterday's cave. At this time, the sky was still very bright, and it was estimated that there was still an hour before dark, so everyone frolicked and frolicked in the open space outside the cave, frolicked and fed the dogs and wolves, and looked at the capybaras hanging on the trees, and two of them woke up, so they knocked them out with two sticks.

When it was almost dark, my father went around the cave, checked the tightness of the rope that bound the capybaras, and struck a hoe on each of their heads, so that they would not wake up and escape at night.

This night, the people in the two caves took turns to stand guard, much more relaxed than last night, and felt much safer, my father finally slept for a while, how did I feel that the sky was dawning, it turned out that everyone saw that he was too hard these days, and he was not called when he changed shifts at night.

Before dawn the next day, my mother woke up my sister to get up early and cook for everyone, first, the eldest uncle and they had to go home early, and secondly, her own group had to set off early to move the nest and go to the next place to hunt.

As soon as there was a glimmer of light, everyone finished breakfast and began to pack up.

The capybara had already eaten one, and cooked one, and the father and his party took half of it for food, and the other half for the uncle to take them to eat on the road, and the remaining four unconscious capybaras tied their mouths with ropes, and then tied them to their bodies with ropes, and each of them carried one on their backs and took them back, and ate them slowly.

Of course, that cage of ducklings also has to be brought back to be raised and planted.

In the end, the dog and the wolf were divided, and the father and his party took a total of eight dogs and three little wolves, and the remaining six dogs accompanied the uncle and them back.

After the arrangement stopped, the two groups of people set off on their own, and the father watched the figures of the eldest uncle and several of them slowly disappear into the woods by the stream as they had done yesterday, and turned around and set off.

The waterhole has returned to its former liveliness and has become a world for animals.

Father and they carried things on their backs, and they went all the way up the stream, because there were more dogs with them today, and it was safer along the way, and my father did not want to hunt on the road, so he urged the dogs and the little wolf to shout loudly while walking, scaring the other animals away, and it was quiet on the way up the mountain, and there were no other animals to disturb it, so that the walk was very fast.

By noon, they had come to a relatively flat place, which was not entirely flat, but they had just come up from the rocky ravine where there was sometimes no place to stay, and suddenly they saw such a large gently undulating hillside, and they thought it was a very flat place.

The hillside was littered with ground turf, and the red grass stalks clung to the ground.

The grass was wet, some places were washed out of small ditches by ice water, and in some places the ditches were not obvious, only to see the faint water flowing among the grass, shining and dazzling in the sun, as if coming to a treasure place.

My father remembered that even the old lady had never been here, and it was a completely new place for the family.

There are also some old trees on the hillside, the stump is particularly large, the big one has the thickness of a bucket, but they are not tall, the whole tree body looks very old, it is estimated that the wind is very strong above, and the mountain is high and the temperature is low, and the trees grow more slowly in winter.

Under an old tree, there is a pile of white snow, which shows that there is still a winter tail, and it is estimated that it will be very cold at night.

My father and the others looked left and right for a long time, and found that this place was different from the places they had been before.

While the children were sighing, their father told them to disperse and find a place to spend the night. When the children opened their eyes, they saw that the meadows were vast and the trees were not thick, so where could they find a place to spend the night? The father encouraged the children that they would definitely find it, so don't worry.

In fact, the children are just a little worried, after going through so many things in the world, no difficulties can be difficult for them.

In this way, they naturally divided into three groups, left and right, and slowly searched upwards and advanced, because there was nothing obstructing as far as the eye could see, and they walked very quickly.

Father and mother walked in the middle, and they were also the fastest, followed by three dogs, wagging their tails and following their masters.
