MTL - My 1995 Small Farm-v2 Chapter 424 born in the sky

  Chapter 424 Give birth to a baby in the sky

   "Fugui, what went down the mountain? I heard the dog barking all the way and chased it out?"

   "I don't know what it is. I heard the barking of the dog is not too fierce. Take the guy and go out and have a look."

   "Huh? The dog is out, and we all run out too. Will something sneak into the farm by taking the opportunity?"

   "It's okay, it just rained, and the footprints and smell are obvious, even a dog can know right away if it sneaks in."

  Chen Ling and Shan Mao quickly exchanged a few words, took the shotgun and steel fork and hurried out.

   Several old people and women were not to be outdone, picked up pitchforks, hoes, and shovels and hurriedly followed.

  Especially the two old men, Lao Zhao and Lao Zhong, who often heard about hunting and fighting wits with wild beasts in the mountains, but they had never had such an experience, and they were very looking forward to and excited.

   quickly rushed to the forefront.

  …

   "Look, it's on the cliff to the west."

"what is that?"

  On the west side of the farm, on the steep mountain wall to the north of the spring, surrounded by morning mist after the rain, there was a strange beast jumping around on the smooth and steep mountain wall, running like flying.

  It appears and disappears in the mist, making it difficult to see clearly.

  There was only a "crack" sound of hoofs trampling on the rocks.

There is no good way to make the huge dog group in the farm, so they can only be divided into two groups. One group followed Xiaojin across the small river and went to the North Mountain to chase after them. Screaming wildly, blocking its way of escape.

   "Oh, it's actually a mountain donkey."

  When Wang Cunye saw this strange beast, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and let out an exclamation.

   "Mountain donkey? Wild donkey?"

  Zhao Dahai and the others put down the things in their hands, raised their heads and asked.

   But seeing this beast was covered in black, with horns on its head and long ears, it looked like a **** donkey jumping on the mountain wall from a distance.

   But if you take a closer look, there is still a circle of white mane around this thing's neck, but because it is covered by thick fog while running, this long white mane appears and disappears from time to time. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it clearly at all.

  "It's not a donkey. The scientific name of this mountain donkey is serow. We call it a mountain donkey here because it looks like a donkey, but it is actually a four-dimensional thing."

  Chen Ling shook his head, turned around and explained with a smile: "The year before last, Bobcat and I followed Uncle Han to look for clouded leopards and golden monkeys in Lutou Mountain. Uncle Han once said that he wanted to find these things."

   "Oh, yes, this is it."

  Bobcat's face was stunned, and it was only then that he remembered what this 'mountain donkey' was.

  Zhao Dahai and his son were sensitive to catch a word, and quickly interjected: "This thing is also called four different images, is it the four different images mentioned in the Fengshen Bang?"

  Chen Ling smiled when he heard the words: "This is not the same..."

  Just as he was about to speak, he heard a loud dog barking from above his head. It was Xiao Jin leading a group of dogs to detour from Beishan.

This big golden-haired dog rushed to the front majesticly, took the lead and went up the mountain wall against the trend, and continued to use his strength to jump on some overgrown tree trunks and protruding rocks, like flying over a wall, towards the mountain donkey. approached like lightning.

  Such a situation made Chen Ling secretly startled.

   It also caused the rest of the people to continuously exclaim in admiration.

  Compared to Hei Wa, Xiao Jin is a more stable and introverted dog. He usually doesn't show his mountains and dews, but when it comes to critical moments, his master Chen Ling can't help but be surprised by his demeanor.

  This is how Chen Ling feels right now.

  I thought to myself, this dog really looks different every day, the progress is too fast, and I don’t know where I learned it.

   But it's too late to think about the dog now.

  Wang Susu’s voice came from the ear again: “Look, look, the donkey has stood up there.”

  Wang Susu was nourished by Chen Ling with delicious food and drinks all day long, and her eyesight was better than that of ordinary people. At this time, she was the first to discover the abnormal situation on the mountain wall.

  Because of the thick morning fog after the rain, the rest of the people had to put their feet on their feet, constantly changing positions, looking back and forth with their heads up and necks strenuously.

   "My God, it's really true. It should be scared by the dog, and I stood up on my hind legs."

   "This thing is amazing. It can run so fast on the cliffs and stand up in such a narrow place."

   "Whoever says it's not, it's like running on flat ground... Hey, look at Lao Zhao's many thieves, he took a camera and took a picture."

   "Ouch, what is that, what is that, what came out from under the **** of the mountain donkey?"

   "That's, what is that thing, it seems to have come out of the fog..."

   "Oh my god, look, the dog stopped barking, and Xiao Jin retreated."

"This this…"

  The voices of everyone changed at the end, as if they saw something unknown and terrible, they were terrified and curious, raised their heads, stretched their necks and subconsciously swallowed saliva, their voices were trembling.

  Chen Ling also hurriedly looked over, only to realize that something was wrong, and immediately froze in place.

  Ordinary people can't see clearly because of the dense fog, and they think it's some weird creature.

  He could see clearly that there was nothing under the buttocks of the 'Mountain Donkey', but a half-born fetus of the 'Mountain Donkey'.

  This situation is really... Chen Ling never expected it.

   I didn’t realize just now that this is a pregnant mountain donkey, and it’s very close to giving birth.

  Being chased and intercepted by a group of dogs and in a difficult situation, it was so frightened that it gave birth to the cub in its stomach.

   No wonder Xiao Jin retreated suddenly.

  It has been hunting for two years and knows the rules in the mountains.

   Do not catch pregnant or pregnant female animals.

   Just now, it was because the 'Mountain Donkey' had never been seen before, and because the 'Mountain Donkey' broke into the range of the farm, it came after it.

   Now once they find that the mountain donkey is giving birth, they immediately retreat.

   "Don't be afraid, everyone, it's not a strange thing, it's the donkey that was frightened by the dog, and it gave birth to its cubs on the spot."

  Chen Ling explained the situation to everyone very quickly.

  Just saying that, everyone who was a little bit scared just now became dumbfounded and froze on the spot.

   "What the hell? Did the mountain donkey give birth from fright?"

   Was frightened by the dogs to give birth on the spot...

   This is really, very confusing at first.

   I feel even more absurd and bizarre.

  I don't know what to say for a while.

   And the mysterious veil of the so-called "four different images" was also broken by the birth of a baby on the spot.

  Zhao Dahai felt this way, and murmured in a low voice, "Didn't you say that this is a four-dimensional thing? How could you be so frightened by a dog?"

  Chen Ling ignored him now, just squinted his eyes and looked up.

  Through the drifting mist, one can see a shallow and narrow depression under the cliff, with long horns on the top of the head, and a black-haired mountain donkey standing there, with frightened eyes and tense body, as if it is exerting all its strength.

  Below its buttocks, there was a small black thing, with its front hooves and head exposed, half of its body sticking out.

   This is not yet finished giving birth.

   And the location is still so high and so steep.

  Chen Ling frowned subconsciously, and whistled softly to stop the dogs from barking loudly.

   "What's the matter, Ling, do you have to go up?"

  Wang Susu knew Chen Ling's intentions best. Seeing his actions, he could probably guess what he was going to do.

   What's more, I am also pregnant now, and with my husband's temper, seeing this female animal giving birth in danger, if he doesn't do something, then he won't be him.

   Even if it is for the welfare of the child in her stomach, she will not ignore anything.

   "Go up, there is no way to go up, this mountain wall is so steep and smooth, people can't stand on it."

Chen Ling smacked his lips and looked around: "Even if I can go up, I'm afraid that this mountain donkey will be scared, and there will be problems in the production process... But if I don't care, I'm worried that this mountain donkey will drop the cub after giving birth. down.

  An adult mountain donkey can walk on a cliff like a flat ground, but a newborn kid can’t. "

   "Huh? So what should I do?"

  Hearing this, several old people turned pale immediately.

  When people are old, they don't even see this.

   Anyway, it's still a little life, isn't it.

  Gao Xiulan and Shanmao's mother folded their hands together and recited Amitabha.

   I don’t know whether the prayers of the two old ladies played a role, or the motherhood of the mountain donkey played a role.

  In short, after Xiao Jin led the dogs back to Beishan, the donkey slowly lowered its upright body and walked southward along the cliff.

   It starts walking like this.

  Even though the top of the mountain was shrouded in thick fog, everyone could still see clearly that the little poor man had already protruded half of his body behind it.

   "My dear, this is like having a baby in the sky, it's too dangerous, it's too dangerous."

  Zhao Yubao was both amazed and worried, holding the camera and scratching for a while, thinking that seeing such a shocking scene, perhaps this should be the biggest gain of his trip.

  Walk on the cliff while giving birth.

   This sight is indeed very shocking.

  But women feel differently. They don't care whether it is shocking or not, they just feel pitiful for this mountain donkey.

   "Oh, sin, this hurts so much, can't we help it?"

  They have given birth and know how painful the process is.

  Even under normal circumstances, giving birth in a safe zone would be painful.

   Not to mention walking back and forth on the mountain wall, pulling hard, not to mention exacerbating the pain... If you are not careful, you will fall off.

   "By the way, Fugui, where is your kite? Why don't you let the kite fly up..." Du Juan suddenly remembered Chen Ling's second bald son, who is better than ordinary kites, maybe he can help.

"No, don't say Erbald is not at home. Even if he is, he can't let him fly up. You see, this mountain donkey is distracted from giving birth, and his feet are trembling with pain. Now we can't scare him too much, otherwise It would be dangerous in itself."

   Chen Ling shook his head slightly, rejecting the proposal.

   "It's heading south, let's not drive it away, don't disturb it anymore, let it find a safe place by itself."

  Animals, especially wild animals that live in the wild all year round, their instincts are very powerful at this time.

   will spontaneously find a safe location for production.

Walking along the mountain wall to the south, although the ups and downs of the mountain are steep, it is no longer a cliff, but an area close to the lake in the mountain. It is excellent for mountain donkeys who have lived in the alpine area for a long time and climbed rocks. place of production.

   Sure enough.

   Under the breathless gaze of the crowd, the mountain donkey dragged the half-born cub to the location near the lake in the mountain, slowly turned over a rock, and disappeared in the thick fog.

   Everyone wiped the sweat from their foreheads and breathed a sigh of relief.

   "Why did this mountain donkey suddenly give birth to a cub, and it was still in such a dangerous place, it made people's hearts jump, I was afraid that the little donkey would fall to death after being born..."

  People are prone to chatter when they suddenly relax after being tense.

  This is especially the case with a few old people. You talk to each other, just like chanting scriptures.

Bobcat recalled it for a while, and said to everyone: "I heard Uncle Han said that this serow breeds once a year, estrus and mates in autumn and March. After eight months of pregnancy, in May and June of the following year, that is, At this time, the cubs will not be born until the summer heats up.

  Based on this calculation, it seems that now is the time for them to give birth. "

   "Yes, this thing likes to run around with donkeys in summer, and sometimes can bring several." Wang Cunye nodded and agreed.

  When they were young, they collected herbs, often climbed up and down, and often encountered this mountain donkey.

  Sometimes when I was gathering herbs on the side of a cliff, I would even have a close eye contact with a mountain donkey that suddenly appeared, which can really scare people half to death.

   "Huh? According to what you're saying, did the cry in the mountains last night come from the fact that this thing was about to give birth?"

  Old Zhong’s eyes lit up, as if he felt he had made a major discovery: “Think about it, it was frightened by a dog just now, and it only gave birth to half a cub, maybe it’s dystocia, and it’s only barking all night because of dystocia.”

  Bobcat was speechless after hearing this for a while: "Dad, don't be too whimsical, okay, this kind of wild animals that eat grass don't bark so loudly."

Wang Cunye nodded next to him: "It's like this. The wild animals that eat grass are afraid of being eaten. They usually live very peacefully and don't bark very much. Mountain donkeys don't like to bark most of the time. Anyway, we have been collecting herbs for many years. We often meet mountain donkeys. I never heard them call."

   While they were talking, Hei Wa who was next to him threw off Rui Rui's entanglement, ran to Chen Ling and yelled twice.

   Chen Ling looked up and saw a group of dogs running down Beishan, led by Xiao Jin, dragging a big guy covered in black hair in partnership.

   "This is another mountain donkey?"

   Chen Ling was surprised to see this, and hurried forward.

  Everyone came over to take a look, and saw that the mountain donkey was covered in scars and had been dead for a long time. The more you looked at the injuries, the more frightening they were, especially on the back of the buttocks. The wounds and scratches were shocking.

   "He must have died in the mountains at night. The ugly beast's cry last night must have something to do with it."

  Chen Ling squatted down and took a look, and found that it was a male mountain donkey. It was huge in size, but there was a big hole in the back of the buttocks, and all the internal organs had been ripped out and eaten.

   This mountain donkey looks intact on the surface, but in fact its cavity has been hollowed out long ago, and it has lost a lot of weight.

  Originally, a person with this body size could be in the early 200s, but now it has shrunk to only 120 to 30 jins.

   "Fugui, can you see what it is made of?"

   "Well, there are no other wild beasts in the Great Qinling Mountains, only a jackal."
