My 1995 Small Farm - #692 - Vol 3 Chapter 683: Setting up a net to catch wild geese
Chen Ling went there with the intention of hunting wild geese.
As a result, the wild goose failed to hit, and we encountered a rare and strange scene.
As soon as he and the two tigers reached the nearby maple forest, he heard bursts of rapid “quacking” and “angang” sounds.
At the same time, it was accompanied by a noisy sound of flapping wings.
And from time to time there was a plop and a splash of falling water.
He thought it was the people who came to take photos of the red-crowned cranes who didn’t understand the rules and scared the cranes.
I quickly walked down through the maple forest to take a look.
As soon as I arrived at the lake, I saw a group of elegant feathered fairies fighting fiercely with a group of equally elegant large birds on the wide lake. They flapped their wings at each other, yelled and pecked each other fiercely with their beaks. You came and I came. , giving way to each other, feathers flying in the water.
It turned out that a group of swans and a red-crowned crane got together.
Chen Ling was a little stunned when he first saw it.
I am here to hunt wild geese.
Swans don’t dare to be beaten.
A few people with shooting machines in the bamboo forest opposite Shanzhong Lake were sneaky and did not dare to move, but Chen Ling could clearly see the excitement on their faces.
Their trip was more than worthwhile, it was a huge harvest.
Seeing Chen Ling carrying a gun and carrying a tiger, he thought he was coming to the lake to hunt birds, so he hurriedly made signs to him, telling him not to disturb the two big birds on the lake.
Chen Ling curled her lips and waved to Ah Fu and Ah Shou, who were looking straight at the lake beside him, and told them to go to the mountains and forests to find food.
I quietly walked around to the bamboo forest on the other side of the lake and asked these people how they were doing.
When did this large group of swans come?
It’s not that swans have never come here before, there was once in the past two years, but it’s still rare.
These people told him that he had come here at noon and had been playing here for a long time. Then the group of red-crowned cranes suddenly fell from the sky and rushed towards them to fight.
It took them a while to realize that the size of the red-crowned crane group had increased by half.
Coupled with the strange sight of the red-crowned cranes and swans fighting, they were so excited that they didn’t even bother to go down the mountain to eat, so they just stayed here and took pictures.
Chen Ling waited here with them for a while, and not long after, the group of swans were expelled.
Needless to say, these red-crowned cranes regard the mountain lake as their exclusive territory.
In their own territory, any birds that intrude will be driven out by them.
It’s no wonder that Chen Ling passed by here many times in the past few days and never saw a group of wild geese stopping.
Even if a wild goose falls down, it will be chased away by the red-crowned cranes.
Knowing that guarding the lake to wait for the geese would not work, Chen Ling stopped waiting here.
While it was still early, I called Afu and Ashou back and took them to hunt in the mountains.
That’s what raising tigers is like.
Although they are not enough to eat three meals a day.
But one meal of meat a day is an amount of food that is beyond ordinary people’s imagination.
Preparing food for them every day is a must.
Fortunately, Chen Ling enjoyed it.
The harvest of the two tigers was also very good today. They worked together to catch a big barking deer, which must have weighed more than 100 kilograms.
Afu and Shou had a great meal.
Chen Ling let them hold the remaining remains and go back to feed the dogs.
I went into the mountains and came home just after four o’clock, almost five o’clock.
Chen Ling went back and took a quick shower before going to Wang Laifu’s house.
It was time to cook when we arrived, but Chen Ling always felt uncomfortable.
He shouted to the crowd: “Dinner will be served later today. His grandma’s, Xiaochao, go and find the rabbit net at your house, put it in the wheat field, and get up early tomorrow to catch the wild geese.”
“Come on, look at this situation, Fugui didn’t catch the wild geese again…”
The crowd suddenly roared and burst into laughter.
“You can’t be like this, Fugui. You can’t catch the wild geese, and you don’t blame us. How can you let us starve? You have to give us a hardening tomorrow.”
“Stop teasing Fugui. He has been thinking about the wild geese for several days. He can’t get enough to eat. He is just unhappy. You have **** him off. You won’t have a share in the feast in the future.”
…”
Chen Ling’s face darkened: “You bitch, stop making fun of me. This year’s wild goose thieves are slippery. If you have the ability, go and fight them. If you hit them, I’ll go over with some good wine.”
“It’s over, it’s over, Fugui is really angry.”
People laughed even more happily now.
Everyone knows that Chen Ling is really, really really cornered by the group of wild geese.
Otherwise, the rabbit net would not have been taken out at all.
Wang Laishun, the manager in charge, pressed his hand and said, “Don’t laugh, Xiaochao, go and get the Rabbit Internet Cafe. We’re a little late and your uncle Fugui won’t cook for us.”
“Hey, I’ll go right away…Uncle Fugui, come too, let’s just drag the net into the wheat field.”
“Okay, let’s put up the net and make it a big one this time.”
Chen Ling spat, “The horse rider didn’t even hit a single goose. It’s really bad this year.”
Worse than the fishing air force.
At any rate, the Air Force knew that there were fish in the water, and he had not seen any trace of the wild goose for several days.
I only saw wild goose dung covering the wheat field.
It’s so strange.
So Chen Ling decided to be cruel.
Use a net to catch wild geese.
He originally thought about getting a few pheasant traps and traps, but then he thought about it, geese come in groups, and these guys are very powerful…
Much stronger than a domestic goose.
No matter whether the clips or sleeves are secure, they will work together to break free when the time comes.
Even if someone is seriously injured during the escape process, the probability is very small.
So I still use Baitu Internet Cafe.
The rabbit net is the big net from the dog fighting ring that he and Shanmao brought back.
Before the autumn harvest, he was catching rabbits at the foot of the mountain.
Later, Wang Wenchao and several other young people saw that there were quite a few rabbits driven out that time, hundreds of them, and they felt very satisfied.
So I borrowed the net from Chen Ling and started catching rabbits everywhere. Although their subsequent arrests were not as exaggerated as Chen Ling’s, they basically gained something every day.
Wild rabbits are easy to catch with a net.
As for wild geese, using a net is another way to catch them.
Just like what Chen Ling said about catching wild geese, they use a net to catch them.
First spread out the barricade, spread it on the ground, and lay it out in the wheat field, like setting up a formation.
The whole large area is.
The net that Chen Ling and the others brought back was big enough.
After spreading out all the nets in the wheat fields where the geese often go, wait for the geese to flock down…
The man went and pulled the net, turned it over and buckled it again.
With a big net covering it, the wild geese will be detained no matter how alert they are.
A group of young boys happily followed Chen Ling and Wang Wenchao as they cast nets everywhere in the wheat field.
The geese will be caught on whichever side of the net they land near.
I don’t believe it yet.
“Uncle Fugui, come here quickly and see what’s going on?”
On the other side, the boy from Chen Dazhi’s family was leading people to set up a net. Suddenly he discovered something and waved his hand to call Chen Ling over.
“what?”
Chen Ling strode over and saw a field of colorful feathers on a long hillock. The area between the wheat field and the soil was covered with colorful feathers.
There are hard, thick and long wing feathers, and there are also short feathers.
“This is a dead wild goose. I don’t know what it was that caught it, and the feathers were torn all over the ground.”
Chen Ling looked around and saw no traces, nor any remaining bones.
Someone who eats bones so well must not be a mountain civet or something like that.
“It must be a fox. There is a den of foxes behind the Tutu Temple.”
Chen Ling thought for a while and said: “To chew it so cleanly, it must be either a wolf, a dog, or a fox…”
“So, Uncle Fugui, you failed because you didn’t get up early enough.”
Wang Wenchao smiled and said, “You can catch other things.”
“Okay, you’re laughing at me too, right?”
Chen Ling reached out and hit him on the head.
Depressed as he was, he also knew that the wild geese were not fighting guerrillas with people, but were more cautious in their detection. As long as there were people nearby, they would not fall into the wheat field.
Thinking of this, he suddenly frowned.
Why can the fox come over and catch the geese?
Suddenly an idea came to my mind…
“Hey, Uncle Fugui, please stay vigil with us tonight. Then call Heiwa and Xiaojin over and ask them to stand guard. If there is any movement, we will go out to close the net and catch the geese.”
“You’re right, that’s what I think… let’s go back to eat first.”
Chen Ling looked around and saw that there were nets in all directions in the green wheat field. He didn’t tell them what he was thinking, so he followed them back without saying a word.
After all, he, the cook, still has to make dinner early.
Supper is simple and the pickled fish is quite quick to make.
The pickled fish is ready to be cooked in a fish pot.
The pig head is also stewed.
His pig head is also a bit particular.
It is fried first and then marinated.
Frying to remove the pig smell.
At this time, you don’t have to worry about consuming too much fuel, and there is also a lot of fat in the pig’s head.
After frying the pig head in half the pot, it was not less, but more.
Can be used for cooking later.
Not surprisingly, the pickled fish for dinner also received unanimous praise.
Slowly night falls.
It’s still very lively here.
Many men did not go back for a long time, playing cards, chess and various other things.
In addition to waiting for the miscellaneous fish pot, there is also the big pot of pig head that is Chen Ling braised.
Once fried in oil, it turns golden in color and makes your mouth water just looking at it.
They are not willing to leave.
Even if you don’t stay up all night, you still have to taste the fragrant pig head meat before going back to sleep.
Not only them, there are many little kids running around again.
Ruirui is also there. He is not pretending to be a big bad wolf now, but a big tiger. The reason is that everyone says their tiger is powerful.
The communication between children is incomprehensible to adults.
I don’t know what happened, but Ruirui knew that tigers are more powerful than wolves.
It whined in a milky voice, and chased people all over the yard with its teeth and claws.
The two Hei babies also followed him closely, carrying out their duties of raising the children conscientiously.
“Uncle, is the pig head meat not ready yet? I’m hungry again.”
Xiao Sen got tired of playing and ran up to Chen Ling, looking up at him.
“The pork head is ready early. Why don’t you eat the fish pot when you’re hungry?”
“Hmm…I don’t want to eat it. I’ve eaten at your house many times, but I’ve never eaten your stewed pig head meat…”
As soon as he said this, many little kids started to growl in their stomachs and ran to Chen Ling to ask him when the pork head meat would be ready.
“Tsk, these kids are spoiled by Fugui. No one else dares to push Fugui. They don’t hold back at all in front of Fugui.”
“That’s not true. My children are closer to Fugui than to me. At home, they open their mouths and shut up to Uncle Fugui. It’s useless to talk to him several times. I really can’t say. Fortunately, these children are all so.”
“Hahaha, then go and coax his Ruirui…”
“Aren’t you talking nonsense? Fugui knows how to play with food and play with things. Can Ruirui like the things I have? I can’t coax him.”
As he was talking here, Chen Ling over there had already coaxed the children who were clamoring for meat, led them to the dim electric light at the entrance of the yard, peeled off the skins of the two kickers, poured out the explosives, and dug Go up to the small pit and take them to play with fireworks that don’t explode but only emit flames.
