Chapter 152, Fighting Jackals

However, Li Shucheng's worries are superfluous for most children, they are just children of poor families, how can they afford to go to school?

But it's still a long way off, and it's not the one that really needs to be dealt with urgently.

On this day, the children of Sidaowan came to school, and as soon as they arrived at the playground, they talked about the jackals they saw on the road, and when Li Shucheng arrived at the school, he heard Li Tianxue say: "Just in the middle of Yundong and our village, we all saw that there were two old jackals on the slope, and they didn't run when they saw people." ”

"Did you really see a jackal?" Sensing the seriousness of the matter, Li Shucheng hurriedly asked.

"Really, old jackals don't look the same as dogs. Li Tianxue said, and several other children also nodded.

"Good. Li Shucheng said, "You go to class, and I'll notify the adults to pick you up from school." "Jackals have always been a big pest here. Although there are leopards here, they are good at hiding, few people can see them, and even if they encounter people, they will hide and hide. There are only jackals, there are a lot of them, they are bold and cunning, they often enter the village to steal chickens, and even Li Shucheng has heard of even more unbelievable things.

Some villages have no water source, and the water needs to be picked up, which is the case in the old villages. Once, Zhang Lao Er went to fetch water at dawn, and on the way back, he was walking, and felt a hand on one shoulder, thinking it was a friend, and said: "Hey, the water is knocked down (beware of the water spilled)." ”

After saying that, he felt that he was still carrying it on his shoulder, and when he turned his head, it was a paw! Zhang Lao Er found that something was wrong, so he hurriedly threw away his flat shoulder and rolled on the ground, opened a little distance to confront the jackal, and shouted to scare the jackal away.

It was considered lucky, another unfortunate woman carried her newborn child on her back to her relatives, and on the way the jackal bit the child's head from behind and ran away. The people from the two nearby villages got the news to help find it, and when they found it, the child's stomach had been torn open, and a life was lost. There is a curse here, "The old jackal bites you", which is generally not spoken, with deep malice, unless there is a big and difficult to solve the contradiction. In addition, there is "the old baby (crow) catches you, the wild cat picks you, and the leopard chews you", here the crow is a bird that represents death, and because the crow is ugly, it is thought to be a scavenger, these are all the same meaning, curse you not to die well.

Li Shucheng ran around and notified a few villages, and when he heard Li Shucheng say that he would beat jackals, otherwise the children would not be able to go to school, and the people in each village took action, gathering with sickles, hoes, and sticks.

"Xinzhai Qinjiao, you start from the Xinzhai side, all the mountains have to be searched, and the jackals are driven (driven) to this side. The other stockades were blocking this side of Sidaowan, and they were beaten to death by throwing in a taizi. Li Shucheng said.

"These old jackals will enter the old forest (primeval forest) as soon as they are pushed, and I am afraid that they will not be able to surround a few of them. Hong Kitchen Knife said.

"Cousin, even if you can't kill a few, as long as you get it once, you can manage it for a while. Hong Zhuzi said.

"It's okay, those who have entered the old forest are mine. Li Shucheng said, "I'll go into the old forest and search it." ”

"Teacher Li, Lao Lin should not go, it is very dangerous inside. I know you have a gun, but you're alone. Zhang Lao Er said. That time, a jackal scared him half to death, and he had to pay it back!

"It's not as mysterious as you say. Li Shucheng said, "I have been in the old forest a few times, there are a few leopards in it, there are few snakes, and the forest is too big for snakes to survive." "Besides, Lao Lin is as safe for Li Shucheng as in the village, as long as the jackals are eliminated and the children can go to school with peace of mind.

The children were playing on the playground after class when they heard shouting from the west and looked at someone on the top of the hill.

"What are they doing?" the children wondered.

Song Zhengwen also heard the voice and came out to check, listened to the children's questions, and said, "They are chasing jackals." If you don't pick up the jackals, you won't be able to go to school. ”

"If only we could go, dogs!" said a bold boy enviously.

"What do you think? As for your little arms and legs, go pick up the jackals. Song Zhengwen said.

"I'm faster than adults. The child said.

"What's the use of running fast? You can outrun the jackal? Even if you can catch it, can you beat the jackal?" Song Zhengwen said.

"Boss Zhang, short down, short down (blocking)! Old jackal is coming this way for you!" shouted Li Greyhound standing on the top of the mountain. He had a good voice and specially arranged for him to shout at the top of the mountain.

"I heard, I heard!" Boss Zhang responded, and before he could move his hand, the shouts of a group of people frightened the jackals away. Driving all the way, Li Shucheng killed two of them with a gun, and a few of them ran into the old forest, and these five were blocked from entering the old forest, and they had become frightened birds.

Looking at the direction in which the jackal had fled, Li Greyhound shouted again: "Chen Damo! Chen Damo! is coming towards you!"

"Hong Kitchen Knife! Hong Kitchen Knife!"

"See!

"Yo! Dare to come here! Pick up rocks and shoot!"

"!

......

Everyone worked together, and finally drove the five jackals into a Taizi, this Taizi is a cornfield, and now the corn has just emerged, and there is no shelter, Li Shucheng quickly solved it with one shot.

"It's better to have a gun!" said Boss Yang, "If you don't rob them, these jackals are really hard to fight." ”

"It's not covered, if you go into the forest and there are trees to cover it, it's not so easy. Li Shucheng said.

"Well, it's like archery. Yang Laosan said.

"After this time, the stockade should be safe for the time being. Li Shucheng said, "But it's better to be careful, jackals will come from other places, and in the future, each of your children in the village will still have adults to pick them up and drop them off when they go to school." Everyone nodded, and it didn't take much time to come.

The jackals that were killed were naturally taken away, the meat was edible, and the skins were nitrated and sold to buy stationery for the students.

Then Li Shucheng entered the old forest that night, and took the opportunity to eliminate the jackals in the old forest, otherwise he would run out again two days later. In this era, jackals are real pests, and every year the country does not know how many people die in the mouths of jackals, and Li Shucheng has no idea of protecting animals.

Searching for jackals is trivial for Li Shucheng, and he doesn't have to look for footprints like a hunter, and he clearly imprints it in his mind as he walks through a radius of three or four miles. In Lao Lin, he went around and eliminated forty-four jackals, large and small, and by the way, Li Shucheng went around the town and eliminated twenty-three.

"So many jackals!" As soon as Li Shucheng came back, Song Zhengwen smiled happily, "These skins are sold, and they make two sets of clothes for each student, and they can buy more than a year's worth of paper and pens." ”

"Well, that's what I thought. Li Shucheng said, "Especially the winter clothes should be prepared early, don't be like last year." "Last year, Li Shucheng didn't expect the winter clothes, the weather suddenly changed, and the children still wore single clothes to school, sitting in the classroom shivering with cold and snot. Li Shucheng had to take a few days off to buy cloth and cotton to come back to make winter clothes. And cotton is not easy to buy, there is not enough in the city under the mountain, and I went to the provincial capital to buy it back.

The news of several villagers beating jackals spread, and the mayor of the town heard about it and inquired carefully, and rejoiced in his own inspiration. These jackals were actually killed by Li Shucheng, it was really a shot and a pot! I feel a chill in my neck when I think about it, if I didn't have a little look at it at the beginning, now the grass is growing on the grave!

Knowing how powerful Li Shucheng is, the mayor of the town came to the school to get closer by thanking Li Shu for becoming the source of the people's harm. Such a place is a tyrant, and if he doesn't have a good relationship, he won't be able to manage the town.

"Yo! Mayor Mare is here. When Li Shucheng came out of class, he saw the mayor sitting on the edge of the playground, walked over and said, "You see I'm in class, and I don't know you're coming." "Actually, the mayor of the town has just entered the school, and Li Shucheng knows about it.

"Brother, you're in class, how can you disturb you. The mayor said, "Are you out of school now?"

"No, I don't. Let's go and sit in Mr. Song's living room. Li Shucheng said as he walked, "This student listens to the class, and there is an efficiency problem." After two or three hours of teaching, the students will lose their attention later. So we take a break after class for 40 minutes, and the children have a little fun, and then go back to the classroom and continue the lesson, and the effect is much better. ”

"I see. As a result, the mayor of the town took two sips to quench his thirst after drinking the tea bowl handed by Li Shucheng, and then said, "I said, when I used to study, I was distracted when I was on it, so that's what happened." Not only the students, but also the teachers, sometimes they start yawning as they talk. ”

His child was studying in a private school in the town, and Li Shucheng talked about teaching, and he found that Li Shucheng was much better than the private school teacher in the town, and his heart moved, and he said: "Brother, can my child come to your school?"

"Your child?" Li Shucheng looked at the mayor suspiciously.

"My child also attends a private school in the town, but the private school is far worse than yours. The mayor said, "I also hope that the children can study hard." ”

"Yes, but it's far from town. Li Shucheng said.

"Then see if you can do this, I will pay for the construction of a house, and the child will live in the school. I eat with Teacher Song, and I give food and money every month. The mayor said.

"This is okay!" Li Shucheng said with a smile, "If the house is built bigger, other children in the distance can also come to study." ”

"Okay, let's make it bigger. The mayor said. As the mayor of the town, if he wants to get some materials to build a house, the landlord in the town will still give face.

The next day, when he saw someone bringing in wood and wheat straw, Li Shucheng looked at it and said, "Hey, mayor, you also built a thatched house? I thought you built a big tiled house." ”

"The school is a grass house, and it's not a matter for him to live in a tiled house, is it?" said the mayor, "Besides, it's fast to build a grass house! I really want to send him to study today." ”
