The Garden Life of a Little Gardener

On the way into the mountain in the village, Zhou Quan guarded for a few minutes and then successfully mixed into the team by virtue of his identity as a 'technician'.

Because he didn't need him to entertain, Zhou Quan, who was walking at the end of the line, saw the shotguns on the backs of two people on Linye's side at a glance.

Thinking of those guests who went up to the mountain to play in the Baojia B&B, Zhouquan leaned next to the big cousin quietly, and found an opportunity to ask in a low voice: "Big cousin, those people have shotguns on them, should we notify the mountain in advance?" The tour guides, let them bring the guests back first, so as not to cause accidental injuries.”

Uncle Chen’s family thought it was reasonable when he heard the words. This is the time when the B&B organizes tourists to go up the mountain. The nearby mountains are probably already full of guests. After all, bullets are short-sighted. Can't afford it.

So he said to Officer Yang beside him: "Old Yang, let's all slow down. There are tourists on the mountains near us. We will call them to go down the mountain immediately. Let's give them a time to retreat."

As soon as Village Chief Chen finished speaking, Captain Qi, the person in charge of the team this time, smiled and said, "Cun Chief, don't worry, wild animals like rabbits and pheasants that pose no threat to human life, our The principle is mainly to drive away. Although I carried a shotgun this time, it was not prepared for them. These two guns are for dealing with wild boars."

"Wild boar? There are no wild boars on the mountains near our village, only the town next door."

"Old Chen, Captain Qi is talking about those wild boars in the next town."

"Old Yang, what you said made me even more confused. Didn't you come here because of the rabbit disaster in our village?"

Liu Wenyan, head of the County Forestry Bureau wearing glasses, explained: "Mr. Chen, we came here this time to solve the problem of rabbits and pheasants in your village harassing agricultural production, but it's not all for this problem. The town next door There are a few wild boars that are really making a fuss, and they have injured humans and animals, and Captain Qi and his shotguns are prepared for them."

"Oh, that's the reason, let me tell you, how many people are needed to shoot a few rabbits and pheasants, so how are you going to deal with those who can fly and run without shotguns?"

"Rabbits and pheasants are timid and we're going to scare them away with noise."

The village accountant was very surprised when he heard the words, and then waved his hand and said: "What, noise? It doesn't work. We used it when we found that the rabbits and pheasants on the mountain were going to be infested. It worked very well, but it came back after a while. It's even better now, they are used to seeing people and listening to people's words. As for the guests in our village who are all over the mountains and plains, they didn't scare them away. Alas, if you let buy Firecrackers are just fine, pull a long string of them over and light them up to scare away a bunch of them."

There was a big incident when the firecrackers were sold and set off in Phoenix City. At that time, all the officials from the top to the bottom were implicated.

Since then, firecrackers have been strictly controlled, and basically no one can see them on the market except during Chinese New Year.

Therefore, although the method of lighting firecrackers to scare rabbits and pheasants has been mentioned by the villagers countless times, it has never been successfully implemented once.

Hearing this, Captain Qi took out his mobile phone from his pocket and said: "We recorded the sound of firecrackers in advance, and after we got to the mountain, the team members separated and played them in different places. After that, we found an open and safe place , For example, on the top of the mountain or something, shoot empty guns into the sky over there, the sound of firecrackers and the smell of gunpowder, let alone rabbits, wild boars and wild wolves can be scared away."

"Oh, that's pretty good, but we're still afraid that those things will come back after you leave. Those wild boars in the next town were driven away last year, and they will be found again this year."

"Hahaha, village chief, don't worry, we still have a lot of calls of wild wolves, goshawks and leopards in our mobile phones. I will leave a copy of them to your village. These things are the natural enemies of rabbits and pheasants. Those wild animals are very familiar with their calls. Find someone to put them on the mountain for a period of time every week to ensure that your place will be peaceful and clean.”

"That's wonderful, and I can thank you all."

During the conversation, everyone reached the foot of the mountain. Captain Qi, who was holding a telescope, held up the binoculars and scanned back and forth several times before he said: "There are so many people here, we can't see the shadows of those things, we have to go to the mountain."

As the youngest of the village representatives, Zhou Quan Wenyan walked in front very consciously to guide everyone. He held a thick twig in his hand and led everyone up the mountain while beating the grass and trees in front of him.

There are no poisonous snakes here in Phoenix, and the pheasant neck, also known as the tiger snake, is the most poisonous thing here.

Scorpions basically don't come out during the day, so the people who go up the mountain are most worried about those wild bees besides snakes.

In recent years, the vegetation on the mountain has been well maintained, and the places where people walk are fine. Where no one walks, the weeds are knee-high, and the wattle grows to the waist.

Their goal was those pheasants and hares. Of course, they couldn't go to the place where people walked for a long time. After gradually entering the mountain, Zhou Quan, who was leading the way in front, began to walk carefully.

The wattle in his hand is not only to scare the snake, but also to scare the wild bees. The wattle that blooms in spring, summer and autumn is the main source of honey for the wild bees on the mountain. Many wild bee colonies choose to build their hives on the wattle. on the branch.

The bumblebee hives on the mountain are not too big, and they choose a very secret location to avoid the wind and rain. When I was a child, Zhou Quan went up the mountain to roll firewood, and I often grabbed the hive by accident.

Needless to say, what will happen if the beehive is moved, both adults and children will have a long memory. When going up the mountain, they will hit it with a stick a few times in advance, and if there are bees flying out, they will run away.

The further you go into the mountains, the harder it is to walk. Now Zhouquan and the others have to bend down and grab the brambles on the mountain to continue forward.

Fortunately, they were very lucky. They didn't encounter any wasps blocking the way, nor did they see the necks of pheasants wandering around.

After they had passed one hill and another, they stopped to rest in a clearing of flagstones among the pines.

While everyone was drinking water and sitting cross-legged to rest, Captain Qi looked around again with the binoculars. This time, after he put it down, he said to a team member beside him: "Xiao Li, you stay here, after we find another place, Watch the signal play firecrackers."

"Yes, Captain, I understand." Said the team member named Xiao Li.

Seeing that there was only one person left behind, the village accountant said, "I will stay with this little comrade, so the two of us can take care of us."

After leaving two people here, the rest continued on their way. After crossing the back of the mountain and up the ridge, Captain Qi said again: "Xiao Zheng, you stay here, watch the signal and prepare to play the sound of firecrackers."

This time, another member of the village committee, You, offered to stay with him, and the rest of the people continued to move towards the top of the mountain.

Ten minutes later, in a place with extremely dense forests, Captain Qi left another team member behind. This time, Xiao Cui from the County Forestry Bureau took the initiative to stay with him.

Just walking and staying all the way, when they waited to reach the highest peak near the village, only Captain Qi, another soldier with a gun, the village head, Officer Yang and Zhou Quan were left among the dozen or so people.

After reaching the top of the mountain, the two men with guns on their backs found a safe place and raised their guns to fire like the sky. Immediately after the gunshots, there were crackling firecrackers in the forest.

As soon as the sound came out, the forest in the distance immediately seemed to explode like a pot, and one after another, male pheasants in colorful coats and long tails flew up from the forest.

呵呵~~呵呵~~, 呩哩~~呵呵~~

In the woods, the terrified cries of the pheasants can be heard everywhere. Their fur is almost the same color as the weeds. The hare with a very hidden characteristic jumped three feet high and fled in the woods. Not only this mountain, but also the neighboring few The big mountain became lively because of the movement here.

Standing on the top of the mountain condescendingly, Zhou Quan looked at the hares and pheasants scurrying all over the mountain, and finally understood why his uncle said that these things were a disaster.

Captain Qi and the others obviously didn't expect to see such a scene, and they couldn't help admiring: "The ecology around your village is really well maintained. If it weren't for the good forests, grass, and good water sources, these wild animals are very territorial. Guys don't live so close to each other."

Is this a compliment?Should be right?

Captain Qi waved his hand on the mountain, signaling those who played the sound of firecrackers to move forward, making sure to drive those pheasants and hares away.

At the same time, they also turned on the mobile phone player themselves, and the crackling sound came from inside, which disturbed many wild birds.

After tossing on the mountain like this for more than half an hour, not to mention pheasants and hares in the woods, not even grasshoppers can be seen.

Captain Qi who had completed the task shouted to stop the team, and everyone began to evacuate down the mountain in an orderly manner.

On the way, the village head called the village committee to prepare the meals, and at the same time answered the calls from the village tour guide and team leader, telling them to appease the guests and tell them about the situation on the mountain side.

Back in the village, everyone warmly entertained the guests who came to help. The two tables were full, including chicken, duck and fish.

After lunch, Captain Qi and the others were busy on their way, and the village didn't force them to stay. When everyone in the village committee went out to see them off, Zhou Quan was squatting in the kitchen helping his aunt and aunts to clean the dishes.

The tableware for entertaining the guests was scraped together from the village committee's house, and all the dishes were from the village head Chen's house.

Carrying a stack of plates, Zhouquan walked carefully into the far door of the uncle's house. After seeing him, the tiger head in the kennel came out of the kennel wagging his tail.

"Tiger head boy, I will feed you meat when I bring the plate back, I...what the hell is this?"

Only halfway through the conversation, the big white goose rushed out from the yard, lowered its head, stretched its neck and flapped its wings, attacking Zhou Quan's side.

Zhou Quan, who had a natural fear of the big white goose, turned around and ran away when he saw this, and was chased by the goose and ran in circles in the yard.

After a few laps, the little aunt of the Chen family rushed out with a feather duster and beat the big white goose.

The big white goose, which was taught a lesson by the master, turned around and went into the backyard. The auntie took the plate and put it back in the cupboard, and said distressedly: "Scared, your uncle is also real, knowing that you are afraid of the geese and let you come back to deliver things. "

Zhou Quan, who had lingering fears, glanced at the big white geese not far away and asked, "What's going on, little aunt? Isn't that big white goose that loves to peck people gone? Why did it come out again?"

"Oh, it's not that your uncle saw that there were no ganders in the family's geese, and bought another one when he went to the market a few days ago. We were afraid that it would not recognize its family, so we locked it in a cage for a few days. Let it out, it treats the family members kindly, who knows that it will chase you and peck."

Zhou Quan, who is not favored by big geese:  …
