Chapter 191 Bringing a pack of dogs to fight badger thieves
When Zhang An went out, he only took a steel fork with him, not even a flashlight.
It's a summer night now, when the bright moon is in the sky, and the bright moonlight fills the earth.
Although it is dimmer than during the day, you can still see clearly.
Zhang An stood on the edge of the melon field. With the brightness of the moonlight, he could clearly see the situation inside the melon field.
After standing in the melon field and watching for a long time, Zhang An didn't notice any movement.
Maybe it's because they arrived too early, and the melon thieves haven't started clocking in yet.
But when he turned back, Zhang An found that Xiaohu had brought his five children, neatly following Zhang An.
After these few months, Da Mao and the others have grown very strong, and they are almost the same as the native dogs in the village.
Seeing them following, Zhang An felt dumbfounded.
Because when he went out, Zhang An had no intention of bringing them over.
The main reason is that there are too many tiger cubs and they are all standing here. No melon thief would dare to come here.
It is said that it is easy to be a thief for a thousand days, but it is difficult to guard against a thief for a thousand days.
Although a few of them come to stand guard, they can make the melon field stable.
But if you don’t come one day, or you come late and leave early, you’ve given the other party a chance.
Zhang An didn't want to guard against thieves for a thousand days, so he wanted to spend a few days to catch this thing.
However, the tiger cubs and the others came, and Zhang An did not chase them back.
Instead, let them lie at the bottom of the ditch, covered by melons and vines. If you are far away, it will be difficult to spot them.
In this way, Zhang An squatted in the melon field and waited for more than an hour.
During this period, no sound was heard. Zhang An thought he was here and the other party did not dare to come again.
Just when I was planning to take Xiaohu and the others back, I heard a "rustling" sound coming from the corner of the melon field.
Coming.
Zhang An heard the sound and reacted immediately.
This movement was so quiet that if ordinary people came over, they would not be able to hear it clearly.
But Zhang An has a pair of ears for the wind, and this is an open area. Zhang An, who has a well-developed sense of hearing, heard everything clearly.
Then Zhang An quietly led Xiaohu and the others, and slowly moved towards the direction of the sound.
Damn, there's more than one.
Not far away, Zhang An had already seen the appearance of the melon thief.
Under the moonlight, three melon thieves were lying on the ground gnawing on the freshly opened watermelon.
Zhang An guessed right. The three melon thieves in front of him were mountain badgers that are common in the mountains.
Through the moonlight, you can see their muzzles that look like native dogs.
You can tell just from here that they are badgers.
They are larger in size and look very fat, with thick and short necks, short and strong limbs, and short tails.
Judging from their size, which is about the same size as a local dog, these mountain badgers are already adult badgers.
At the same time that Zhang An discovered Shan Baizi, Shan Baozi also discovered Zhang An.
These guys were already ferocious, and when they saw Zhang An, they knew that their melon-stealing behavior had been discovered.
But instead of trying to escape, they put down the watermelon they were nibbling and ran towards Zhang An.
This is also a dog badger. If it were a pig badger, it would turn around and run away as soon as it was discovered.
The actions of the mountain badgers were exactly what Zhang An had in mind.
I was originally worried that they would run away in fear, but I didn't expect them to come to my door on their own.
Seeing them running toward him, Zhang An picked up the steel fork and headed towards the largest one.
You are not afraid of a wild boar that weighs more than 300 pounds, let alone a little mountain badger like you.
Xiaohu didn't wait for Zhang An's greeting, and rushed into the battlefield with Da Mao and the others behind him.
For a while, the scene was quite intense.
The little tiger faced one alone, and the remaining five little tigers surrounded the other one and prepared to attack.
The mountain badger is famous for its ferocity in the mountains. Generally, the native dogs in the village are really helpless against it one on one.
On the contrary, there are many local dogs bitten by mountain badgers in the village.
However, Zhang An was very confident about the little tiger, and there wouldn't be much of a problem if the five little ones on the other side surrounded a mountain badger.
These guys are not only extremely ferocious, but also very cunning.
Seeing Zhang An carrying a steel fork, he kept playing hide and seek with Zhang An.
Sometimes it will rush over and sometimes it will roll over, but it won't let you catch it.
Zhang An picked up the steel fork and almost hit it several times, but it always got away.
Sure enough, Runtu was right, these guys were very slippery.
The scene was at a stalemate for a while. Many of the melon vines in the melon field had been tortured beyond recognition by a few badgers and the family's dog generals.
But Zhang An doesn't feel bad, after all, there are not many watermelons on the melon vines now.
As long as these three guys are caught, it will be a good thing.
Not only can you save the remaining watermelons and strawberries, but you can also brew some badger seed oil at home.
As the saying goes, "eight pounds of badger seed and seven pounds of oil", this badger seed oil is a treasure.
Using it to treat burns has always had miraculous effects. Not to mention the protection of future generations, even now, this badger seed oil is very expensive.
Zhang An estimated that the three badgers in front of him were quite big, and they would definitely produce a lot of badger oil if they were caught.
In later generations, a large piece of Swallow's hand was burned by the boiling water. Fortunately, the second master had a small jar left at his place.
If it weren't for the badger oil, Yan Zi's burned hand would probably be covered with wrinkled burn scars.
However, after using badger seed oil, although it was not as good as before, there were no traces of burns unless you looked carefully.
Moreover, not only the badger seed oil is a treasure on this badger, but even the badger skin can be used as a cushion to cure hemorrhoids.
Soon, Xiaohu took the lead in resolving the battle.
The badger facing it had been bitten by the tiger cub and was lying on the ground, its limbs still twitching.
After the battle was resolved, Xiaohu pushed him to the side to help his children deal with the other badger.
Zhang An felt extremely sad when he saw this.
In the past, Xiaohu always thought of himself first.
But now that it has changed, the first thing that comes to mind is Da Mao and the others.
Sure enough, when it forced the female wolf away, it was absolutely right to call it a scumbag.
Now that one end has been taken care of, the other end will probably be taken care of soon.
Zhang An felt that he should hurry up and deal with this guy in front of him.
You can't wait until the little tigers and the others are finished later, and then stand by and watch you perform a show of steel-forked boy Doosan badgers for them.
The mountain badger had been avoiding Zhang An's attack just now, but Zhang An didn't let it rest for a moment.
Moreover, it has been looking for opportunities to attack Zhang An, running around everywhere, and its physical strength is probably almost exhausted by now.
Zhang An saw it slow down and used all his strength.
With the thought of anticipation, the fork is coming before the badger arrives.
Maybe the mountain badger saw Zhang An swinging the steel fork forward again, and habitually rolled to avoid it.
Unexpectedly, Zhang An's steel fork was thrust towards the position where it rolled.
Everything was just right, a polished steel fork was inserted deeply into its neck.
No matter how cunning you are, are you still as smart as humans?
Being stabbed by a steel fork, the mountain badger quickly ended its life.
Zhang An then stood aside leisurely, watching his dogs fighting the last badger.
Because the place is not big and there are many dogs, the remaining badger has been surrounded.
It was hard for Zhang An to step forward to help at this moment. If he didn't cross Zhongshan Badger and caught his own dog, the gain would outweigh the loss.
However, Sanmao seems to be a little unlucky. He must have been bitten on his front paw by a badger.
I feel a little uncomfortable when I move now.
If Sanmao were to fight against a badger, his claws would probably be bloody.
But today, because there were too many Sanmao brothers, as soon as the badger bit Sanmao, he was attacked by other Sanmao from behind.
The pained badger could only release Sanmao's claws to defend himself from other enemies behind him.
This is really thanks to the mountain badger. If it were a pig badger or a honey badger, it would be hard to say.
Pig badgers are not so courageous. When they see that there are many people on the other side, their first thought is to run away.
As for the honey badger, he is also the flat-headed brother. This guy's life is either fighting or on the way to fight.
The flat-headed brother with white hair and a cloak makes the wind blow everywhere when he walks. Even if he encounters a lion or a working leopard, he still has to fight with you and tell the difference.
Not surprisingly, the puppies at home are helpless when they encounter Brother Flathead.
Although there are many people, they are not afraid of death at all. The self-destructing truck method can hurt me, but you can't feel comfortable either.
Fortunately, Zhang An and his friends are not the hometown where Brother Pingtou lives.
Originally, I had five puppies, but they had no plan when fighting, so they couldn't take down this badger for a long time.
However, after Xiaohu joined the team, the brothers seemed to have learned to cooperate.
Da Mao is seducing from the front, while the others are waiting for the opportunity.
Zhang An had nothing to do, so he picked a watermelon and ate it while watching.
By the time Zhang An finished eating half of the watermelon, the battle was still unresolved.
Xiaohu couldn't stand it any longer, so he attacked the mountain badger with a vicious dog attack, and the battle was resolved in two or two strokes.
Maybe it was because the movement he just made was too big. Zhang An squatted in the melon field for another long time and didn't hear any more movement.
Presumably, there will be no more distinguished guests coming tonight.
Zhang An didn't intend to continue to guard, so he asked Xiaohu and the others to pick up three mountain badgers and get up to go home.
Regardless of whether there are other mountain badgers or other animals, Zhang An plans to come back tomorrow night.
If there are others who come to steal melons in the middle of the night, Zhang An will just feed them.
When I got home, it was almost twelve o'clock at night.
Wang Fang had already fallen asleep, but when she heard the sound of Zhang An opening the door, she got up from the bed again.
"Mom, why are you up? Why don't you get up if you're asleep?"
Wang Fang and the others have always been very light sleepers, especially in the middle of the night, when they heard some noises and woke up.
"It's okay. I'll get up and take a look at you. Did you catch it?"
Zhang An went out to guard the melon field at night. He told them before going out.
"Caught, three badgers."
Zhang An stepped aside and showed his mother the three badgers the tiger cubs and the others were holding in their mouths.
"Why are there so many and they are all so big?"
Wang Fang was a little surprised when she saw such a big three-headed mountain badger.
Although badgers are more common in the mountains, especially this summer.
But in most cases, you can only encounter one end, and rarely encounter both ends.
It is indeed rare for Zhang An to meet three heads this time, and they are all so big.
"Maybe our watermelon is delicious, but they couldn't stand the temptation, so they came together."
Zhang An just chewed half of a watermelon, and it tasted really good.
Although it cannot be compared with those grown in space, there is still no problem in crushing any watermelon on the market.
This is related to the sunny days this year. When there is more sun, the watermelon will be sweeter.
And now that the melon fields are so wide, there aren’t many watermelons harvested at all, which is strange.
"Then nothing happened to our dog?"
Looking at the three dead badgers, Wang Fang worriedly asked about the condition of her dogs.
After all, there are already quite a few dogs bitten by badgers in the village.
"That's not true. With so many dogs in our house, how could they be bitten by a badger?"
Wang Fang felt relieved when she heard that all her dogs were fine.
Zhang An asked Xiaohu and the others to put down the badgers and waved them to go to their den to rest.
This badger was bitten to death by a tiger cub, and the other one was bitten to death by Zhang An, so it is still bleeding to this day.
Putting it on the ground like this is also a good idea, otherwise the house will stink when you wake up tomorrow.
Wang Fang found a big basin, put them in it, and covered it with a dustpan.
It's already late today, so we can only do the peeling and boiling of badger seed oil tomorrow.
Zhang An had eaten this mountain badger meat at Fourth Master Zhang's house before. Although it was very nourishing, it was not delicious and had an earthy smell.
But in those days when meat was scarce, who cares whether it tastes good or not, it’s good to eat some.
Moreover, the best thing about this mountain badger is not its meat, but the layer of badger oil.
Although most people use it to treat burns and repair skin.
But it can cure a lot of problems, and it can be used internally or externally.
Zhang An thought, why not get a few of them and raise them in the space before they can be protected yet.
We can also respond to emergencies when needed.
When Zhang An got up early the next morning, he found that his father had already started skinning badgers in the yard.
Yesterday, Zhang Tie and the others wanted to follow Zhang An to guard the melon field, but it was so late at night that Zhang An did not allow it.
So I ran over here early in the morning to see what this cockroach looked like.
When they saw a few badgers, they were dumbfounded.
"Brother, isn't this a badger? Where's the scorpion?"
They were still curious about what Runtu was talking about and what it looked like.
When the results came over, they found that what Zhang An had caught was the mountain badger they had seen on weekdays.
"Isn't that right? The mountain badger is the 猹 mentioned in the book."
Hearing what Zhang An said, the children instantly lost interest.
He was so furious that he didn't know where he was going.
Not long after, Mr. Zhang also came over. Wang Fang must have called him there in the morning.
If it comes to boiling oil, everyone in the countryside can do it.
But this badger seed oil is different. It needs to be brewed well and how to store it for a long time. These are all based on experience.
Moreover, it would take a long time for Zhang Jianguo to handle the three badgers by himself, so he called Mr. Zhang to come over and help with the pot.
