Chapter seven hundred and fiftieth IX injury parting (three)
Chapter 759: Injury and Farewell (3)
"Gelsang, come and help, shoot with a gun, that's a leopard, it will kill all our cattle and sheep..."
In this small village under the snow-capped mountains, due to the large number of small animals on the mountain, especially in the summer, it is rare to see wild animals such as jackals and leopards that like to steal cattle and sheep, so Bazhu did not carry a gun when he was grazing.
In order to protect the cattle, sheep and Tibetan mastiffs in the village, Bazhu bravely faced the snow leopard with a machete in his hand.
Everyone who lives on the grassland knows that although the Tibetan Mastiff is said to be able to fight tigers, wolves, lions and leopards, at most it can only fight prairie wolves. Compared with beasts such as lions, tigers and leopards, it is not even a bit worse.
Bazhu knew that he and the two Tibetan mastiffs alone could not defeat the adult snow leopard, so he shouted to Gesang and asked him to take a gun to shoot the leopard. Naturally, the people living in this small mountain village did not understand what it meant.
Animals are safe.
"Bazhu, this is no ordinary leopard, it is the patron saint of the Snowy Mountains..."
Gesang grabbed Bazhu, thinking that since he agreed to Zhuang Rui, he might as well start killing Bazhu.
Compared with these villagers who rarely go out to the mountains, Gesang has been to several cities such as Sichuan and Yunnan, and is considered a knowledgeable and capable person in the village. Although Gesang does not believe Zhuang Rui's words, Zhuang Rui
The compensation method Rui mentioned made Gesang's heart move.
You know, in addition to slaughtering the cattle and sheep in the village during the New Year and festivals, they take them out and exchange them for firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea and other items. Although the people outside are also Tibetans, they will not cheat the villagers, but barter
Items are relatively much less than what they are sold for.
At the end of a year, excluding the necessary expenses in the village, the income of dozens of households in the entire village is only tens of thousands of yuan, with an average household earning just over 1,000 yuan.
If Zhuang Rui can really follow what he said, he doesn't need to give it every year, just give him 200,000 in one time, then what's the harm in the village even if it uses cattle and sheep to raise the leopard?
"Gelsang, are you out of your mind? This is a leopard. It is the leopard that harms our cattle and sheep. You...you said it is the patron saint of the snow-capped mountains?"
As the only person in the village who works outside, Kelsang is still very respected by others. The mountaineering team he brought can also make some money for the village. But what he said at this moment made the grazing Bazhu completely helpless.
accept.
"Bazhu, what I said is true. Look, didn't the snow leopard attack our cattle and sheep? Look again, see if that one is the patron saint of the legendary sacred mountain..."
Facts speak louder than words. Under Zhuang Rui's comfort, the snow leopard did not chase and bite the scattered cattle and sheep. It was just wary of the two Tibetan mastiffs in front of it, but did not pay much attention to them.
After all, there is probably only one Tibetan Mastiff in the world that has the fighting power of a white lion. Even the Snow Mastiff, considered by Tibetans to be the patron saint of the snow-capped mountains, is far inferior to the white lion.
"Snow leopard, go and drive back those cattle and sheep. Remember, don't hurt them..."
In order to enhance the snow leopard's prestige, Zhuang Rui issued an order that sounded unbelievable to others. You know, this kind of living is usually done by Tibetan mastiffs.
After hearing Zhuang Rui's order, the snow leopard let out a deep roar, and rushed out like a sharp sword. In a blink of an eye, it was in front of the cattle and sheep. With its claws and roar, the intimidating sheep turned around and headed towards
The herders came running.
Even if there were cattle and sheep that ran far away, they were far inferior to Xiaoxue in terms of speed. However, within seven or eight minutes, all the scattered cattle and sheep were driven back. The reason why they were just trembling and did not run anymore was
They accepted their fate.
Not only Bazhu was dumbfounded, but even Zhuang Rui didn't expect that the Snow Leopard really had some potential as a Tibetan Mastiff. Although it couldn't subdue the sheep with virtue like the Tibetan Mastiff, it could subdue the sheep with force, which was vivid and vivid.
"This...this...is true?"
Bazhu was also a little confused. The snow leopard in his memory was a very cruel beast, but the scene in front of him made him believe that this adult snow leopard had indeed fulfilled the duties of a Tibetan mastiff.
Bazhu did a rough check and found that all the cattle and sheep that had been lost just now were driven back. Even the Tibetan Mastiff could not do it so quickly.
The conversation between Kelsang and Bazhu just now was always in Tibetan, until these few stilted words were spoken that Zhuang Rui could understand. At that moment, Zhuang Rui patted the snow leopard and said: "Xiaoxue, go smell him.
The smell on your body, don’t bite it in the future..."
Snow Leopard walked grandly to Ba Zhu, who had become a little dull. After sniffing Ba Zhu with his nose, he turned back to Zhuang Rui and lay down on the ground obediently.
The two Tibetan mastiffs in the village, under the discipline of the white lions, have become much more honest now. Although they still look at the snow leopards with hostility, they no longer have the intention to step forward and fight.
"Brother Bazhu, this is what the Living Buddha gave me in a dream. From now on it will be the patron saint of the Snowy Mountains, and it is also my friend. In the winter, I hope the village can use cattle and sheep to support it. As for these expenses, I
It will come out..."
Zhuang Rui looked like a magic stick and repeated what he had said to Kelsang to Bazhu. Unfortunately, Bazhu's Chinese skills were very limited, so in the end it was Kelsang who translated for him.
Then Bazhu saw the snow mastiff again. This was the legendary patron saint and something the Tibetans firmly believed in. Bazhu quickly went up and knelt down. In the hearts of these Tibetans, they were not worshiping this Tibetan mastiff.
His body is not the Buddha in his heart.
Zhuang Rui saw that Ba Zhu still didn't believe that Snow Leopard had taken over as the patron saint. Instead, he gave a big gift to Snow Leopard who had done nothing. After thinking about it, he lowered his head and said to Snow Leopard: "Xiaoxue, go,
Get closer to Xueer..."
Both Xiaoxue and Xiaoxue are female. After eliminating hostility in the past two days, they often have some physical contact. In response to Xiaoxue's show of kindness, the Snow Mastiff also reciprocated with his tongue very affectionately. However, this annoyed the white lion and pointed at it.
Xiaoxue roared and drove it back to Zhuang Rui.
Seeing this scene, Bazhu couldn't help but not believe it. With the strong support of Kelsang and Suo Nan, Bazhu finally knelt down and paid homage to the snow leopard.
Zhuang Rui watched with joy in his heart. It is estimated that Xiaoxue is definitely the first leopard to be worshiped and become a totem-like existence in this place.
"Brother Bazhu, please come back to the village with us..."
Before leaving, Zhuang Rui abducted Bazhu again. I believe that two villagers can explain much better than Gesang alone.
After more than half an hour, Zhuang Rui asked Ba Zhu to drive the cattle and sheep into the village first. He wanted Ba Zhu to drive the cattle and sheep back to the sheepfold, so that when the snow leopards entered the village, they would make a big fuss.
movement.
But even so, the movement was not small, because the Tibetan mastiffs in the village smelled the scent of snow leopards, and they roared one after another and ran towards the entrance of the village as hard as they could. Even their owners could not stop them at this moment.
Snow leopards and Tibetan mastiffs, in a sense, one protects human cattle and sheep, while the other feeds on cattle and sheep. The two are natural enemies and cannot coexist. This is why snow mastiffs fight snow leopards on snowy mountains.
Reason for biting.
More than a dozen Tibetan Mastiffs ran wildly and roared in unison. The formation was quite large. Even with Zhuang Rui's comfort, the snow leopard began to become uneasy and kept growling in its throat. If Zhuang Rui hadn't hugged its neck
, Xiaoxue turned around and ran towards the snow mountain.
"White Lion, go take care of it..."
Looking at the menacing group of Tibetan Mastiffs, Zhuang Rui also shuddered a little. If he let these guys rush over, he would definitely be torn into pieces together. In the past few days, he had been tainted with the smell of leopards.
"Oooh...ooh!"
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, the white lion jumped out without hesitation and blocked the group of Tibetan mastiffs. The hair on its neck stood on end and a thunderous roar came from its throat.
The Tibetan Mastiffs were shocked by the roar of the white lions, but when they looked at the snow leopards, they began to become frantic again.
A Tibetan mastiff that seemed to be the leader also let out a roar, but obviously it did not dare to provoke the white lion. Instead, it circled around the white lion, trying to bypass the white lion and attack the snow leopard.
"Ouch!"
There was actually a Tibetan Mastiff that disobeyed him. This made the white lion feel that he had lost face in front of Zhuang Rui. After letting out a roar, the white lion's huge body rushed over and slapped the Tibetan Mastiff with his paw.
On his head, he then used his big mouth like lightning to bite the Tibetan Mastiff's throat.
"White lion, don't kill it..."
Zhuang Rui was startled, "Brother, I asked you to make peace, so why did you get angry? And it's still a fight between the two?"
In fact, Zhuang Rui had this idea because he didn't know the habits of Tibetan Mastiffs.
Every Tibetan Mastiff group has a Mastiff King. In this Tibetan Mastiff group, all Tibetan Mastiffs must obey the orders of the Mastiff King. As for who can become the Mastiff King, it depends on who is the most ferocious, and each member of the group must obey the orders of the Mastiff King.
A Tibetan Mastiff, after feeling that he can become the Mastiff King, can also challenge the current Mastiff King.
If the challenge is successful, you can become the new Mastiff King. The old Mastiff King will leave sadly. If the challenge fails, the challenger will either die or leave the mastiff group.
In the Tibetan Mastiff group, the order of the Mastiff King is the highest order, and every Tibetan Mastiff must obey it unconditionally, otherwise it will be regarded as a provocation to the Mastiff King.
Although the white lion is extremely ferocious, it has not challenged the mastiff king of the mastiff group since it came to the village. In other words, although the Tibetan mastiffs are afraid of it, they will not obey it and want to gain the authority of the mastiff group.
If you want power, you must first defeat the current Mastiff King.
This was an extremely easy thing for the white lion. In just one minute, before anyone could react, the Tibetan Mastiff with black hair was already screaming under the white lion's mouth.
"Ouch!"
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, the white lion opened its mouth and roared into the sky. More than ten Tibetan mastiffs present, except the Snow Mastiff, all lay down to show their submission to the white lion. This scene was quite interesting.
Makes people's blood boil.
At this time, the people in the village saw the Tibetan Mastiff and ran out one after another. They also felt that something was wrong. In addition, Bazhu shouted loudly after entering the village. Many people flocked to the entrance of the village and saw the white lion showing off its power.
Of course, the snow mastiff, considered the patron saint of the snow mountains, and the snow leopard behind Zhuang Rui were also discovered by the villagers. This caused a commotion. They didn't know whether to worship the snow mastiff first or go home to get their guns.
Hunting snow leopards?
As for why snow leopards are so honest, no one has thought about it at this time. Leopards and wolves will always be the natural enemies of herdsmen on the prairie.
"Brother Gesang, it's your turn to take action..."
Zhuang Rui bent down and hugged Snow Leopard's neck, raised his head and greeted Gesang.
Gesang had a wry smile when he heard this. This fact is too damn hard to explain. I am afraid that at the beginning of speaking, he will be regarded as crazy by these villagers.
Sure enough, after Gesang communicated with everyone, the villagers had expressions of shock and contempt on their faces. No one believed what Gesang said and started shouting loudly.
Zhuang Rui knew they didn't believe it and wanted to step forward to explain, but he couldn't understand the language and didn't know what they were saying, so he couldn't help feeling a little depressed.
After a while, the old village chief also came over. After hearing what Gesang said, he reacted particularly violently. He even took a cane to hit Gesang. He was so frightened that Gesang quickly ran to Zhuang Rui and said
: "Xiao... Xiaozhuang, I can't do this. None of them believe it..."
Just then, Bazhu drove the cattle and sheep back to the circle and arrived at the entrance of the village. Zhuang Rui quickly shouted: "Bazhu, brother Bazhu, come and explain..."
Bazhu had personally seen the snow leopard help retrieve cattle and sheep, and saw that it was friendly with the snow mastiff. He believed Zhuang Rui's statement about the living Buddha's dreams. After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, he used Tibetan
He started to communicate with people in his village.
This time, the villagers did not show any anger, because one person said that they could not believe it, but Bazhu, who had always been honest, said the same thing, which made them confused.
Moreover, the white lion stopped the mastiff group from fighting with the snow leopard, which also puzzled everyone. In their view, the white lion was also a sacred beast like the mount of Buddha. It should have been a natural enemy of the snow leopard. Now it is so protective of the snow leopard, which makes them confused.
Puzzled.
"Did that snow leopard really help you retrieve your cattle and sheep?"
The old village chief asked Bazhu that this thing was too bizarre, but maybe it was a metaphor from the Buddha. Only the Buddha could make the snow leopard stop eating cattle and sheep.
If Zhuang Rui knew what the old village chief was thinking, he would definitely be happy. This big deceit actually gave himself such a high status, more powerful than the Living Buddha.
Ba Zhu is an honest person and cannot tell lies. After hearing what the old village chief said, he replied honestly: "Uncle, this is true. I saw it with my own eyes. Ba Zhu can swear to the living Buddha..."
The old village chief shook his head when he heard this. He still couldn't believe such an outrageous thing. After thinking about it for a moment, the old village chief waved his hand to Gesang who ran to Zhuang Rui and said, "Gesang, guardian of the snow-capped mountains.
God will protect us...
If this leopard can walk around us without hurting us, then I believe it and we will support it in the future..."
The old village chief also heard what Kelsang said just now, and knew that if the village provided some cattle and sheep to the snow leopards in the winter when the mountains are closed by heavy snow, they would get a lot of money, so he said this.
After hearing this, Gesang immediately started translating for Zhuang Rui. Today, it was an eye-opener for him. Everyone from snow leopards to golden eagles showed obedience to Zhuang Rui. This made Gesang feel deep down in his heart.
Zhuang Rui is the reincarnation of the Living Buddha.
"Gelsang, ask them if they are not afraid?"
Zhuang Rui was afraid that some people would attack Snow Leopard first, and he would not be able to stop Snow Leopard from defending himself.
"Don't be afraid, we Tibetans will not be afraid of it..."
After communicating with the old village chief, Gesang gave Zhuang Rui's answer, but the old village chief still asked some children under the age of ten to return to the village.
Everyone present was a good hunter. Even if he was attacked by a snow leopard, a few hits would still be enough to kill the snow leopard with a gun.
"Hey, then this matter is easy to handle. The guardian saint designated by the Living Buddha will certainly not harm the people it protects..."
Zhuang Rui was overjoyed when he heard the words. He then made a magic stick, reached out and touched the snow leopard's head, pointed at the people in the village, and said: "Xiaoxue, go smell their scent. Don't let them go when you see them on the snow mountain in the future."
Attack them..."
The snow leopard has never seen so many people. In fact, it was also scared. It hesitated and refused to step forward. Finally, under the temptation of Zhuang Rui's spiritual energy and the command of words, it finally got into the crowd and sniffed on everyone.
Sniff, when he walked to the old village chief, he stuck out his tongue and kissed the old village chief's hand.
Although everyone present was frightened, after this ordeal, they believed what Gesang said and cheered loudly. Under the leadership of the old village chief, they actually attacked the snow leopard.
Kneel down and worship.
Peng Fei, who was next to Zhuang Rui, wanted to laugh. He secretly raised his big finger at Zhuang Rui and whispered in Zhuang Rui's ear: "Brother Zhuang, you can really fool me..."
"Let's go, brother is doing serious business..." Zhuang Rui suppressed his laughter and glared at Peng Fei.
At this time, the old village chief actually called out all the children in the village. You know, it is a great blessing to be able to see the mythical beasts on the snow-capped mountains.
The snow leopard, nourished by Zhuang Rui's spiritual energy, was also very considerate and sniffed at each child. Some brave children even reached out and touched the snow leopard's hair. Fortunately, the big cat was not angry.
As a result, the whole village was convinced that the snow leopard was the patron saint of the snow mountains, and Zhuang Rui, as a person who could communicate with the snow leopard, gained the respect of the villagers.
It was almost noon. Those doctors would have left here yesterday if they had not been waiting for Zhuang Rui to come back. Now they are all packed up. Zhuang Rui declined the old village chief's offer to stay, and took the white lions with him to prepare.
Out of the mountains.
Accompanying him were two of the strongest villagers in the village. They wanted to follow Zhuang Rui to the county town to collect the money Zhuang Rui had promised. This was also a crucial step for the villagers to recognize Snow Leopard's identity.
"Gah...gah..."
Just when Zhuang Rui was sent to the mountain pass by the villagers, the cry of golden eagles suddenly came from the sky. Two magical golden eagles swooped down from the sky. One fell to the ground next to Zhuang Rui, and the other was the same size.
The smaller one actually landed directly on Zhuang Rui's shoulders.
"Damn, you're not lighthearted..."
Zhuang Rui was dragged forward several steps by the swooping female eagle before he regained his balance.
"Gah..."
The female eagle looked at the backpack on Zhuang Rui's chest and shouted.
Zhuang Rui knew that it wanted to take another look at his child, so he quickly released the little thing. The mother eagle reluctantly used her head to touch the little guy's body. The emotion shown in her eyes made Zhuang Rui
Rui almost regarded the golden eagle as a human being.
The sudden appearance of two golden eagles caused the villagers to panic for a while. Since Bazhu had explained about the Golden-winged Peng King, a circle of people knelt on the ground. Zhuang Rui simply discussed the matter and included the golden eagles in the winter.
The cattle and sheep in the village were among the victims.
For many years to come, there was something in this village that puzzled outsiders.
Even when winter is the coldest, there is always a snow leopard that comes to the village to catch cattle and sheep, and from time to time there is a big eagle in the sky, snatching away lambs, but the people in the village are actually indifferent to this.
This incident later spread throughout the grassland, but only very few people knew the real reason.
After being affectionate with the young eagles for a while, the two golden eagles fluttered their wings and flew into the sky, but they kept hovering above everyone. No matter how Zhuang Rui waved, they refused to leave for a long time.
"Snow Leopard, I'm leaving. Remember, you are not allowed to hurt people in this village in the future..."
Compared with the two golden eagles, what Zhuang Rui couldn't bear to part with the most was the snow leopard that had been following him. This little guy who was obviously not that old really matched Zhuang Rui's taste.
However, the outside world is the human world after all. Zhuang Rui can imagine the fate of the snow leopard if it goes out. It will either be a trapped beast in his courtyard, or it will be visited by people in the zoo, so Zhuang Rui decided to let the snow leopard stay.
Snow Mountain, stay in the prairie and become a real king of the snow mountain!
"Aww...aww..."
The snow leopard didn't quite understand the meaning of Zhuang Rui's words, but it still followed Zhuang Rui closely. In its mind, Zhuang Rui was like its relative. Wherever Zhuang Rui went, it followed him.
"Xiaoxue, go back, the outside world is not yours to go to. Go back to the Snowy Mountains and be your king of the snowy mountains!"
Zhuang Rui suddenly became angry, pointed at the snow-capped mountains with his finger, and roared loudly. His outburst startled Xiaoxue, and she took a few steps back, as if she understood something.
However, after a brief period of shock, Snow Leopard walked up to Zhuang Rui, gently bit the hem of Zhuang Rui's clothes with his teeth, and pulled him back hard, with a look of infinite longing in his eyes.
"Xiaoxue, I'm sorry, I really can't take you away. Go back. Daxue Mountain is your home..."
Zhuang Rui's voice was choked when he spoke, and tears burst out uncontrollably. He hugged the snow leopard like a child and started crying.
Zhuang Rui could feel Snow Leopard's nostalgia for him, and similarly, his heart felt like a knife cutting him.
