The logs were piled next to the firewood pile. Zhang Chi was not going to split them now. What he would do with all the effort would wait until autumn.
After a busy day, he ate, took a shower, prepared a basin of milk for ink, Zhang Chi browsed the Internet, and took a long nap as usual.
When he was drowsily asleep, Zhang Chi felt someone pushing him, so he opened his eyes.
"ah!"
Zhang Chi saw someone beside his bed and immediately sat up in shock.
When Zhang Chi saw the faces of the people beside the bed clearly, he relaxed.
Turning to look at the alarm clock next to the bedside table, Zhang Chi said angrily to Cannon: "It's only around two o'clock. What are you doing in my room?"
Cannon smiled and said: "BOSS, two tigers are born!"
"What two tigers and three tigers...what?"
Zhang Chi's anger at getting up disappeared immediately. He immediately took off the blanket on his body and started looking for shoes.
"Erhu is born?" he asked while putting on his shoes.
Cannon said: "Four puppies were born."
Zhang Chi put on his clothes, picked up a flashlight and followed Cannon out of the house towards the stables.
When they arrived at the stable, they opened the door and saw Erhu lowering his head and eating a bowl full of milk. Chicken breast meat that had been torn into strips could still be seen in the milk.
This was obviously prepared by Cannon.
On the haystack not far away, the big cow was turning around nervously, stretching its head to look into the haystack from time to time.
Seeing Zhang Chi coming, both dogs wagged their tails.
Zhang Chi saw that Erhu's belly was now flat and not as round as before.
"When was it born?" Zhang Chi reached out and touched Erhu's head, patted his back gently, and spoke in a much softer tone.
Cannon said: "Not long after the birth, I also discovered it when I went out to inspect the cattle, so I got some food for Erhu and went over to call you."
"Hard work, hard work." After Zhang Chi said to Cannon, he walked up to Daniel's side.
I don’t know whether it means Erhu’s hard work or Cannon’s hard work.
I stretched my head and looked into the haystack, and found four puppies nestled motionless in the haystack, huddled together, each with their eyes closed, and one of them was still sticking out its pink little tongue. It looked like
Was asleep.
The little thing is very small, only about the size of a fist, but it looks quite cute.
One looks like a big bull, made of iron and gold.
One looks like two tigers, with golden and red fur.
The next one is a bit strange, the whole body is blue. The blue here does not mean like the blue sky and white clouds, but close to black, but it is a little different from black. It may be black elsewhere, but put it
When it comes to cats and dogs, it’s called blue.
The last one is pure white, with no hair at all.
Zhang Chi bent down, stretched out his hand and stunned a few little guys.
Daniel was watching Zhang Chi from the side, his face full of nervousness, as if he was afraid that Zhang Chi would hurt his dog.
However, it also knew that Zhang Chi was its master, and instead of snapping its teeth at Zhang Chi, it looked at Zhang Chi with a shy dog face. After a few glances, it came over and hit Zhang Chi twice with its dog's head.
galloping arms.
Apparently he told Zhang Chi: Don't touch them. Why are you touching such a small baby?
Zhang Chi didn't care about this, he stretched out his hand and patted Daniel's dog on the forehead: "Go away, why are you joining in the fun! The skin is tight, isn't it?"
When Zhang Chi glared, Da Niu retracted his head, but still stuck his head into the gap between the haystacks and looked at the puppies. The eyes of Da Niu, who became a father, were filled with tenderness.
Zhang Chi carefully turned over a puppy.
"Hey, he's a young man."
Putting this one down, he picked up another one.
After finishing the four dials, Zhang Chi was a little confused, so he dialed them again from beginning to end, and then asked Cannon: "Why are they all young men and not a little girl?"
Cannon smiled and said: "BOSS, why are you asking me about this? You should ask the big boss, what does it have to do with me if I don't give birth to a little girl?"
Zhang Chi was amused by Cannon's words and said with a smile: "I just asked casually. It's really none of your business. If it was none of your business, little Cannon would be born."
Cannon immediately grimaced.
Looking at these puppies, Zhang Chi said: "Why are there only four and no others?"
As he spoke, Zhang Chi dug through the grass next to him to make sure there was no other puppy.
"Four isn't too few, right? This kind of dog can give birth to a lot in one litter, right?"
Cannon didn't know that the dogs he commonly saw in the past were all cattle dogs nearby, and they only gave birth to a small number of puppies, usually three or five, so he didn't find it strange that Erhu only gave birth to four puppies.
In Zhang Chi's mind, there were either six, seven, or ten puppies in their lifetime, and four seemed a bit too few.
Zhang Chi didn't know how many Tibetan Mastiffs Chuan'er could have, but these four were obviously a lot of disappointment to nearby ranchers.
Many ranchers around are quite interested in Zhang Chi's Da Niu and Er Hu, because the two dogs' talents in herding cattle are countless times better than the cattle dogs they currently have on the ranch.
Moreover, the Bull and the Tiger are huge in size, and both have extraordinary intimidating power against bulls. Size equals fighting power. This also applies to cattle dogs, so they have always wanted to get one.
There are only four of them now, so we must stick to Nell and Miller's family first, and other families will have to wait for the next litter.
Because Zhang Chi originally wanted to keep one, but after seeing the puppy, Zhang Chi decided to keep two, the white one and the blue one, for no other reason than this.
Se'er is lovable, Zhang Chi has never seen her before.
"Okay, BOSS, don't call the puppy. I didn't see that Daniel and Erhu were very nervous," Kanzhi said to Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi retracted his hand after hearing this.
Arriving next to Er Hu, Zhang Chi was ready to praise Er Hu.
As soon as he came to Erhu, Zhang Chi saw Da Niu whimpering. When he turned around, he saw Da Niu wrinkling his nose at Cannon.
"Still not letting you get close?"
Zhang Chi is a little strange, because usually Daniel and Cannon have a very good relationship, but Cannon spends much more time with Daniel than Zhang Chi does.
Cannon said with a wry smile: "It accepts you playing with the puppies, but it doesn't happen when I get close to them."
These words were very helpful to Zhang Chi. The dog he raised at home was of course closer to him. There was nothing wrong with that. Cannon was just a second-class dog. The big cow was right about his teeth. After all, there is a difference between closeness and distance.
"big cow!"
Zhang Chi said something to Daniel.
Daniel closed his mouth instantly, but still stared at Cannon, preventing him from having any intention of touching the puppy.
At this time, Erhu had already eaten all the milk and chicken breasts from the basin, licked the basin clean, turned around, went back to the haystack, lay down, and started licking the puppies, looking like a loving mother.
After Erhu lay down in the haystack, Da Niu breathed a sigh of relief, retreated to the side and lay down too, but his eyes were still fixed on Erhu and the pups.
Zhang Chi went over and stretched his head to take a look again, and found that the four puppies had woken up. Each one looked like a big mouse without opening its eyes. They began to bulge in Erhu's belly, and each stretched out their little foreheads.
It also had its chubby little paws open, and it looked like it was about to feed.
Soon the little ones found the right place and began to suck milk one by one. Their bellies bulged and shrank one by one. Their little looks were really adorable.
After a few puffs, the little kid seemed to be tired of sucking. He took two breaths before continuing to eat.
"Not bad, not bad." Zhang Chi was very happy.
Cannon said: "BOSS, let's go back, don't scare the puppy, otherwise the two tigers may have to change places."
Zhang Chi nodded: "Well, let's go back."
So Zhang Chi and Cannon left the stable, chatted for a few words at the door, and then prepared to go back to their respective rooms and continue to sleep on their own.
Halfway through the road, Zhang Chi thought of the two bear cubs on the tree again. He was worried about what happened to the two bear cubs, so he turned back to the stable, led Chi Yanshan out, prepared his saddles and ran straight towards the two bear cubs.
The bear cub ran over to where the cub was.
When they arrived at a place not far from the fence, Zhang Chi heard the cry of two bear cubs. There was a kind of fear in the cry, which made them very uneasy.
After urging Chi Yanshan to the edge of the fence, Zhang Chi got off the horse and climbed over the fence towards the tree where the two bear cubs were staying.
When he arrived under the tree, Zhang Chi turned on his flashlight and looked up the tree, and immediately discovered that the two bear cubs were in danger.
A mountain lion had climbed up the tree and stood not far from the bear cubs. The two bear cubs had huddled together, hugging the branches and howling non-stop.
The mountain lion did not come forward, not because it wanted to play with the bear cub, but because the branch the bear cub was currently standing on was a little thin and had already bear the weight of two bear cubs. It would definitely break if it climbed up again.
Even so, the mountain lion kept pressing its front paws on the branches. It was not known whether the mountain lion wanted to throw the two bear cubs off the tree, or whether it was testing whether it could climb up the tree branch and catch the two bear cubs.
Little delicious snacks.
As a bright light hit the tree, the mountain lion stopped its movements. It turned its head and looked under the tree, and found a bright light shining on itself.
The sudden bright light clearly made the mountain lion feel uncomfortable.
Woohoo!
The mountain lion roared towards the bottom of the tree, driving away the uneasiness in his heart and issuing a warning to the guy under the tree.
"Hey, we're still old friends. You're really lucky!"
When the flashlight shone on the mountain lion, Zhang Chi recognized this mountain lion. Isn't it the one he shot last year? There was an obvious scar on the hind leg. At a glance, he knew it was shot with a gun.
Apart from Bian's level a year ago, I guess others are not as good at it. If they want to kill a mountain lion, these cowboys will rarely fail.
Soon the mountain lion also saw Zhang Chi, and it obviously recognized Zhang Chi, which made it even more uneasy. The shot last year was still fresh in its memory.
Mountain lions are scared!
Letting go of the little bear cub, the mountain lion continued to climb up the treetop. It was not that it didn't hold grudges against Zhang Chi. It did hold grudges, but it also knew deeply that it was no match for Zhang Chi. It almost killed him last time.
This time, it didn't have the guts to take risks, so it subconsciously wanted to stay away from Zhang Chi.
