Chapter 31: The deer becomes long-necked

So the leader couldn't help but sigh and said, if only my wife was like an old hen, one litter could hatch twenty or thirty daughters for me. Isn't that the problem solved?

There are many more vivid stories in the forest, which cannot be told in a few days and nights.

After a few years, various animals have found their own way of living and passed on to their descendants from generation to generation.

Cows, horses, sheep, camels and other animals, because they are not suitable for living in the forest, they gradually go out of the forest to find a place with fertile water and grass to live, and the forest naturally becomes a paradise for those who can fly and crawl. They feed their hunger by picking fruits, and live a carefree, happy and happy life.

However, the giraffe did not leave the forest. At that time, giraffes' necks were not so long, probably a little longer than the necks of other animals. With such a little strength, the giraffe grabbed it. He thought that he had no advantage other than his neck. If you compare all your shortcomings with other animals, then you will not live in this life. When events are held in the forest, he can neither fly, nor climb trees, nor sing. His hoarse voice made it impossible to communicate with others. Although these made him very uncomfortable, it was not inferior. Because it has a long neck that no one else has, if there is a neck competition, the giraffe can be called the first in the world, but unfortunately there was no Guinness World Record at that time, otherwise, he would definitely apply.

However, no one will compare his neck, and no one will think that his long neck is anything great, but it is uncomfortable to look up. At that time, there were rumors in the forest that the giraffe alone in the forest was incapable (referring to not being able to climb trees and fly), and that he could not raise his head when he saw people, and now it is said that people can't raise their heads in front of others, which may be derived from the saying at that time, if you don't believe it, you might as well find an animal to ask, maybe you will find the answer.

There is no need to find the answer, but it is the right thing to refute. Because at that time, the giraffe bowed his head not because he felt inferior and felt inferior, but he was quietly working hard to achieve his goal, and he believed that one day, he would succeed.

He had a grand goal, which was to stick his head directly into the tree and eat fruit or leaves, without having to climb the tree or fly. You say, this idea is quite innovative, and no other animal has thought of it that way.

If it's just an idea, it's nothing, and if there's no action, or you don't know how to act, it's a fantasy and has no practical meaning.

The giraffe, on the other hand, has a deliberate and practical plan, and he thinks that if you use it, you will lose it, and he gives some examples of birds that use their forelimbs to become powerful wings, and those who do not have hind limbs that cannot travel long distances. Man is dexterous with his hands, clumsy like an ox with his feet, and strong with his right hand, and small and weak with his left hand.

Under the influence of this theory, the giraffe undergoes long, arduous exercises, and his training method is as follows: that is, to stretch his neck as long as possible to eat the farthest or highest things, and to promote the growth of the neck. That's why the giraffe always keeps its head down, because it's sticking its neck out to eat the farthest grass.

As the saying goes, rabbits don't eat the grass next to their nests. The giraffe, however, does not even eat the grass around them. In order to lengthen the neck. The magistrate said, if you don't eat the grass around you, who will you leave it to eat? The person who can ask such a question is definitely a wise man. If it is a child, it will have a bright future in the future, and at least you can get the chairman of Shandong Province to be a person. Because Mr. Han Fuyu, who was the chairman of Shandong Province at that time, once questioned the right side of the vehicle: If all the vehicles go right, who will be left on the left side of the road?

Don't mind.

Giraffe training is boring and tedious. And the results are not very obvious, often after a few months of practice, there is not much progress. When some of his friends knew his intentions, they came to persuade him.

"Why don't you practice climbing trees with me, I'll teach you. ”

"Learn to fly with me......"

"Or, go out of the forest like a cow or a horse......"

The giraffe shook his head, smiled and said to everyone, "Thank you for your kindness, I won't change." ”

The persuasion was ineffective, and everyone could only sigh and walk away.

In fact, it is unreasonable to say that giraffes have never retreated. Because progress is too slow after all, he once wondered if he could catch up with the day of success in this life, and instead of practicing so desperately, it is better to go out of the forest. Anyway, I don't have that craving for fruit. As the saying goes, if a person moves, a tree moves.

However, this idea was quickly rejected by himself.

A large tree records his achievements.

Every ten days, he raised his neck and took a bite on the bark to make a mark.

Although the two most recent marks were so close to each other, and some even overlapped each other, he was surprised to find that the bottom mark was dozens of centimeters away from the top mark, which recorded the trajectory of its struggle and achievements. How can this not be exciting?

Whenever he retreated, when he saw these marks, he suddenly became more energetic.

As we all know, after a long and arduous training, the giraffe finally realized his ideal, it can effortlessly and just raise its head to eat the fruit or leaves he wants.

So, some people say that giraffes are actually the smartest.

The bird said that I had learned to fly, and although I flew very high, I was no longer what I used to be, and I had grown wings, but my limbs had degenerated.

The creeper said that I learned to climb trees, and although I could climb every branch of the tree, I was often worried that the higher I climbed, the harder I fell.

The giraffe doesn't have to worry about that, it can do whatever it wants.

He said, I will always be me.

The article should have ended here, but what I didn't expect was that a huge disaster suddenly ushered in the forest, and even Dahl didn't mention it, it was the author who told these stories to his old hen, and the old hen recounted the rest with tears in her eyes.

Do old hens shed tears?

The author saw with his own eyes, and this is the case, and no one can doubt it.

The following is narrated by the old hen, and the author can only record it according to the words of the old hen, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble and copyright disputes, and the author is not responsible for the authenticity of the content, so I hereby make a special statement.

"To tell you the truth, I am the 9,999,999th generation grandson of the Chicken Angel, and my mother has also told me the stories you told, and we have passed them down orally from generation to generation. In our chicken family, it has always been inherited according to the maternal line, and I heard my mother say that since our ancestor Chicken Angel came out of the forest, the chicken family began to gradually prosper, and now it has spread all over the world. ”

"Ahem, ahem...... Give me some water," said the old hen, "moisten my throat." ”

I felt a little rude, I should have served the old hen some water, but since the old hen was not a guest, she was not so poor. I scooped a bowl of water from the tank, grabbed a handful of corn from my pocket, and put it in front of the old hen.

Don't laugh, in our rural area, it's so casual to entertain guests, but if it's for you, that handful of corn can turn into a handful of popcorn, and everyone knows that you don't have sand in your stomach to help you grind food. You won't be able to eat the raw corn, if you have to eat it, grab it yourself, there is a lot of it in your pocket, and the owner will not mind. If you're from the city, the bowl of water will change, and the welcoming host will bring you a steaming bowl of jasmine tea. It was absolutely hot, because it was freshly cooked in a cauldron by the owner. If you're a countryman, that bowl of water is no different than the one I brought to the old hen. It's not that the owner favors one over the other, it's really a person who is used to drinking cold water, and he is not used to drinking hot water soaked in leaves.

The old hen put her sharp beak into the water bowl and drank a few sips, the two mouths moved very quickly, and the frequency could only be compared to cross talk.

I wanted to ask him if he practiced tongue twisters a lot, but I didn't ask out of politeness, and when he was done, I just said,

"Would you like to eat some corn first?"

"I'm not hungry," he said, "and let's tell the story first." ”

"Okay...... "I saw that there was not much water in the bowl, so I took three steps and two steps to the jar and scooped up a bowl of water, brought it to the chicken, and said, "You drink and talk." ”

"Take a sip too. The old hen looked at me, then at the bowl, and motioned for me to take it and drink some water, for he would not mind.

"I'll mind. I wanted to shout, but I didn't do it out of politeness, and I didn't want the old hen to see what was going on in my heart, so I said, "I've just drunk it." ”

Actually, my throat and eyes are smoking, I really want to stick my mouth into the bowl like an old hen and drink it, and try to see if I can change my career to cross talk.

"You human beings are hypocrisy, you don't dare to do what you want to do. ”

I knew he was talking about me, and he had guessed that I actually wanted to drink water, and I didn't dare to drink it in front of him.

My face must have been very red at the time, and although I couldn't see it myself, I felt my blood surging and my head was dizzy.

"I'm right, you see, your face now looks like an old hen laying eggs. The old hen said with a smile.

"We're not an old hen anymore? haha......"

I quickly laughed at myself. The old hen laughed too, and his laughter was giggling, as if he had just laid an egg.

"You'd better tell the story," I thought I should cut to the chase at once, or if the old hen came to me in a moment, I would lay an egg first. Then today's interview may be in vain. So he said, "I can't wait." ”

"Wait a minute. I noticed that the old hen's face was flushed, and she said a little shyly, "Please take me to the nest, I ......."

My guess was correct, and I regret not letting him finish the story soon.

"You can fix it right here. I laughed.

"That's not going to work," said the old hen, whose face turned redder, and said with a little coquettishness, "you are a man, how can you peek at people giving birth?"

I almost forgot this, my wife gave birth, I was in a hurry at the door of the delivery room, but the nurse just wouldn't let me in, and the nurse seemed to say the same thing.

I have to cling to the old hen, who made us men.

After a while, the old hen giggled and came out of the nest.

"What are you laughing at?" I greeted.

"Gave birth to a double yolk egg, white and fat, very cute, I can't complain ......about it" She wanted to continue to say "suffocated panic", but the words came to her mouth and held back, I think now he can really be regarded as "suffocating panic". The old hen tried her best to be more elegant, so she diverted the topic and said, "Women are just more things." ”

This sentence is familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, I finally remembered it. This sentence came from the mouth of a leader, in order to prevent women from causing trouble to the work, he simply did not want women when recruiting employees, but when the leader was complacent and boasted that no one had taken maternity leave for five years, some employees came to resign.

"Well done, what kind of job to resign? I'll give you a raise, a promotion, and a ...... promotion."

The leader asked puzzled.

"I don't lack any of these, I don't lack a daughter-in-law, you give me a daughter-in-law. ”

The leader had a beautiful daughter, so he moved out of his own daughter.

"Do it well, I'll marry my daughter to you......"

It was calm for a while.

But after all, there is only one daughter, so you can't have a hundred families. So it wasn't long before there was a stir again.

So the leader couldn't help but sigh and said, if only my wife was like an old hen, one litter could hatch twenty or thirty daughters for me. Isn't that the problem solved?

"What do you want?" said the old hen, seeing that I was thinking about something.

"I wonder if someone still envies you. "I had to tell the truth.

The old hen giggled again, and he laughed and said, "You're making fun of me again." ”

He didn't quite believe me, but I could tell that there was a look of joy on his face.

"Just tell the story. I said.

"I'll talk about it again next time," said the old hen apologetically, "I'll go back to the nest and sort it out, and we'll talk about it again to-morrow." ”

I vaguely felt that the old hen seemed to suddenly have the style of the leader's wife, and did not take me as a master in his eyes, which was the first time I found out. But I couldn't help but wonder if he could really become the wife of a leader, maybe I could really get a.

As the saying goes: "When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven." ”

If this chicken and dog can attain the Tao, can I still have less oil and water as the master?

As soon as I thought of this, my mood became very good, and I hurriedly offered my courtesy to the wife of the leader beside me.

"You eat some corn, let's not rush, we'll talk about it next time, and we'll talk about it next time. ”
