Chapter 14 Poor Stream Beast Taming Base
Qian Duo said: "This voice is a bit like the voice of a monkey." But I bet it definitely won't be a monkey's voice. ”
The big house also hurriedly argued: "I also bet that this is definitely a monkey." ”
While the two were arguing, Jiang Xin Qiuyue interjected: "Brother Fang, this really doesn't seem to be the voice of a monkey! I also often see monkeys, like monkeys, don't have such loud voices. ”
Qian Duo smiled and said: "What Qiu Yue said is extremely true!
Jiang Xin Qiuyue said: "Brother Qian, in your opinion, what kind of animal is this sound made?"
Qian Duo said, "In my opinion, this must be the voice of the orangutan." ”
Jiang Xin Qiuyue's eyes rolled, nodded, thought about it again, and then asked, "Since it is the voice of an orangutan, why is it so sad and terrible?"
Qian Duoduo scratched his head and pinched his nose before saying, "It is very likely that this orangutan was attacked by other fierce beasts, or was bitten by a snake or stung by a wasp...... Maybe. In short, I was attacked or frightened. ”
When the house heard this, he laughed and said, "My brother, in this winter, where are there snakes? ”
Qian Duo laughed and scolded: "You are really a two-hundred-and-five! I'm just giving an example." Although there are no snakes or hornets in winter, there are tigers and leopards. If this orangutan encounters a tiger or leopard, he won't be caught by them and eaten raw?"
When the house heard it, it seemed to be reasonable, so it stopped arguing.
Duan Hanyan sighed lightly and said: "Among these beasts, this kind of thing is like a person who wants to eat, it is a natural thing, it is staged every day, although we know that this orangutan has suffered a catastrophe, but there is nothing we can do." ”
There is a bend ahead.
As soon as you turn this corner, you can see a flat ground under the cliff wall that is as steep as an axe.
This flat land, neither too big nor too small, is just the size it should be.
On this flat land, there are three or four houses all made of square stones.
These three or four houses, neither too big nor too small, were just the size they should have been.
On the side of the road in front of these three or four houses, there is a wooden plank, on which are written a few black characters diagonally - "Poor Stream Animal Taming Base".
Not far from this beast taming base, there is a boat docked.
The ship was neither too big nor too small, and it was just the size it should be.
A wooden frame was erected on the ship. On the wooden shelf, sticks protruding from the planks of the ship, three humanoid objects were hung with hemp ropes that were as red as flames.
At this time, the three humanoid objects were hanging in the air and swinging, like three children of five or six years old swinging.
But now they have no joy, only sorrow, only fear, only despair.
These three humanoid objects are almost the size of an adult.
Now, the distance between Du Shenfei and the others and this ship is not very far.
Therefore, they could see clearly and recognize that these humanoid objects hanging from the boat were indeed three orangutans, as Qian Duo said.
The river around the ship was almost all stained red with bright red blood.
And in this bloody water, there is the sound of water from time to time, and from time to time there is a splash of water.
When everyone looked closely, they saw that there were three or four crocodiles in the water that were ugly, terrifying, and creepy.
No one can figure out how these fierce and brutal crocodiles with the intent to die can appear in such weather?
At this moment, these crocodiles are biting something in the water, as if they have just caught their prey, and they are feasting on it at this time.
And on the shore, very close to the ship, there is a wide and comfortable bamboo deck chair.
A person is leaning leisurely on a chair with Erlang's legs crossed and a wine glass in his hand.
Behind this man stood five more men dressed in dark chestnut linen.
At this moment, everyone already understood that the person who was singing loudly just now was neither a hermit like an idle cloud and a wild crane, nor the village man with muddy feet, but this person reclining on a chair.
Because by this time, the man had already started singing again.
He was still singing the same song he had just sung.
Du Shenfei has already understood the meaning of this song.
Suddenly, he felt that this man was singing so badly.
Such singing and such behavior not only cannot add poetry to this side of the water and soil, but are as disappointing as boiling cranes and burning pianos.
This kind of singing is not only ugly, but also very disgusting.
This song is obviously a song that is neither out of tune nor has any beauty to talk about.
But no matter how ugly and harsh this person sings, this voice is full of the joy and pride of the singer.
This kind of pleasure and pride, mixed with the inhuman and inhumane pleasure, makes people listen to it, and they want to rush up and slap him twice.
Now, whether it is Du Shenfei, Duan Hanyan and others, or Sun Wukong, Tai Geer and others, they all understand very well what is happening here.
Obviously, this is a poor person who catches wild orangutans in this place, tames them in this inhumane way, and then sends the domesticated orangutans to the theater troupe as a tool for their profit.
Those orangutans, which are really difficult to domesticate, become the "chickens" in the allusion of "killing chickens and monkeys", and become food in the mouth of the crocodile to warn its companions - this is the end of disobedience.
The three orangutans, still hanging on the water, were still sobbing lowly, as if mourning their deceased friends and loved ones.
Everyone stood on the mountain road and stared at the orangutans for a long time.
After a long time, Duan Hanyan said to Qian Duoduo: "You're right! The screams and wails just now were indeed made by an orangutan. ”
Qian Duo was staring at the boat, listened to Duan Hanyan's words, and said professionally: "That scream, short and terrible, must have been made by this orangutan that had been torn apart by the crocodile. And the wails of grief and horror came from the three orangutans who were still hanging there. ”
Duan Hanyan nodded, he felt that there was a lot of money to say, and it really made sense.
Du Shenfei sighed and said, "Although I have never seen an orangutan, it is said that orangutans are the closest to humans, and they can also walk on their feet, and they will make reasonable use of tools in life." But I don't know if it's true or not?"
Duan Hanyan said: "Yes, not only that, but the orangutan does not have a tail like a monkey. He thought for a moment, and then continued: "It seems that the life span of orangutans is about the same as that of humans, and just like humans, they are pregnant in October and only give birth to one at a time. ”
When Jiang Xin Qiuyue heard this, she blinked her eyes and said, "I also heard that orangutans can speak human words, is this true?"
Du Shenfei smiled: "Orangutans can speak human language, but I haven't heard of this." It's simply unheard of. I don't know who you're listening to?"
Jiang Xin Qiuyue said: "Then the "Water Scripture Note" says that the orangutan is 'shaped like a yellow dog, and like a dolphin, with a good human face. She is kind to people, and her voice is as beautiful as a woman's good girl. If that's true, then the orangutan not only speaks, but it also speaks nicely!"
Du Shenfei obviously hadn't heard of this, nor had he read the book "Notes on the Water Classic", but he just let out an "oh" curiously.
Duan Hanyan listened to Jiang Xinqiuyue's words, but said with a smile: "The Book of Rites also seems to say: 'Parrots can speak, and they can't leave birds.'" Orangutans can speak, and they are inseparable from beasts. He also said that this orangutan could speak as well as a parrot. ”
Du Shenfei heard that the "Book of Rites" also recorded that orangutans could speak human language, so he became even more curious.
But Duan Hanyan continued: "Although it is said in ancient books that orangutans can speak human words, I see it! This is completely two blind people chatting, talking nonsense. ”
