Chapter 140 Trek

  The inner thighs of the three felt comfortable, but they were hurt mentally, because whether it was Dominic, Colter, Remington, or Jian Heng, sometimes they looked at them with strange eyes.

   So much so that the two boys, Colter and Remington, would aim at their crotch inadvertently from time to time.

  The bodyguard is not affected at all, no matter how people look at him, he has a dead face, and he keeps observing the surrounding situation, as if someone is going to attack his protected object in this poor place.

  Jian Heng believes that he has reached the realm that the ancients said is not to be happy with things and not to be sad with oneself. If you are not a mortal, it is naturally difficult to measure it with the mark of a mortal.

Jim, on the other hand, is old and thick-skinned, and he will calm down after being red once or twice. Although he is a little embarrassed, but his skin is to the extreme, this kind of small embarrassment is not taken too seriously. At this time, He Ye is a little She couldn't let her go, she always looked awkward, like a little girl who was taken to a small hotel by her lover for the first time, with a red face, like a ripe peach.

  Old Walsh saw that Colt reined in the horse again, and looked back at the direction of the three of them. He was silly, and couldn't help feeling a little dissatisfied. He opened his mouth and said, "Look at it, as if you haven't posted it!"

  Colt has posted it, of course. It is estimated that except for Old Walsh, everyone else has posted this thing. Except for women's products, this thing is actually nothing. The time when people posted it by themselves is in the past, and now someone else posts it. If you don’t laugh at it, then wouldn’t you be ridiculed by others when you posted it yourself?

   "Laugh at him, just to relax." Colt said heartlessly: "I was ridiculed before, but now I will naturally laugh back!"

  In order to get revenge, even though he was scolded by Lao Tzu, Colter still had fun at the three of them, showing his white teeth, and saw that his father had a horse face, so he turned his horse's head to drive the cattle.

   Jian Heng's complexion was not very good at this time, because he looked up at the sky just now, there were a lot of clouds above his head, and it was a bit heavy, and it might rain.

  After training his son, Old Walsh saw Jian Heng looked at the sky with a heavy face, and then walked over, standing shoulder to shoulder with Jian Heng.

   "Think it's going to rain?" Old Walsh also looked at the sky, then at the herd of cattle moving slowly forward.

   "Looks like it!" Jian Heng nodded and replied.

   "The forecast said that there will be no rain in the whole of Montana these days, but who can say for sure, these people have never been too sure!"

  While talking, Old Walsh raised his head and observed the sky. An hour ago, Old Walsh was a little worried that it would rain. Now that he heard Jian Heng say, he couldn't help but feel more blocked.

   "I hope we can get to the campsite smoothly!" Old Walsh said.

Although this is not a deep mountain, it is still dominated by trees and grass. If you walk for a day, you may not meet a stranger. If it rains again, the road will be very difficult in this undulating mountain. Walk.

Not to mention anything else, just say that after it rains, the **** will inevitably slip when it gets steeper. The cow can walk a little more steadily because the cow's hoof has two toes, but the horse can't. The horse has only one hoof. If you try it out, the horse will move its legs, so the speed of the whole team will inevitably slow down. If the speed of the cow is fast and the speed of the horse is slow, think about what kind of chaos will happen. You can't let the cow wait for the horse.

  If it rains too much, maybe you will be trapped in this place directly.

   "I have arrived at the camp immediately, if it rains, the rest of the road tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will not be easy!" Jian Heng said.

  Old Walsh said: "If it keeps going down, then we have to take a detour! Walk on a flatter ground, but the journey will take an extra day!"

There is no way to do this. If you want to take a good road, you have to go around. If you want to take a shortcut, you have to go over the mountains. This is the case in the Rocky Mountains. If you don’t like it, you can buy a plain ranch, but the price of the ranch there Not the price here.

   "Let's see it again!" Jian Heng was a little worried.

After nightfall, everyone hung lanterns on their horses. In order to maintain the speed of the entire team, the cowboys like Jian Heng worked even busier. Because the distance of sight was getting closer, it was necessary for people and horses to maintain a certain distance. The speed of movement, so that you can take care of the side you are looking after.

If you don’t run back and forth, you might not be able to see that there are only one or two cows missing in the herd, and you don’t know that when you arrive at the camp, you have to turn around to look for it, which will be troublesome. Bigger and more dangerous at night.

Now that everyone is busy, no one has time to come and laugh at the three people, and the health is also better, so now the three people have a pretty good time when they are young, staggering on the horse, thirsty and drinking Take a sip of water, take out the leftover steak from lunch when you are hungry, the three are the most comfortable and leisurely people in the team.

  Jim watched the five people in front of them constantly busy, almost like five spinning tops non-stop since they left the ranch, and he couldn't help sighing.

  He Yeyu was used to his crotch being covered with ladies' items for two shows, and was ridiculed a lot. When he got used to it, he didn't feel ashamed anymore, and asked, "Why, what's your feeling?"

"It's not fun at all!" Jim said: "The galloping horses on TV, the high whips, and the dust raised by the cows are all gone, just walking and walking boringly, as if there is no end like".

  He Ye said with a smile: "Movies always have artistic exaggeration in them!"

"This isn't an exaggeration, it's just out of thin air! Look at it now, a few of them circled back and forth, which is equivalent to running back and forth on horseback. As for us, we took three mules for a walk all afternoon and hardly stopped for several hours. There's no romance to talk about at this time! I want to put the horsewhip in my hand on those screenwriters now!" Jim now realized that he was a little bit fooled.

If there is any cowboy next to him, he will tell him straightforwardly that driving cattle like in the movie is not driving cattle at all, but killing cattle. If a ranch mainly drives like this once, his family’s ranch will It will have to change hands in two years. If the cattle keep running like this, let alone a month, the fat just put on in autumn will disappear in half a month. If there is no autumn fat, it depends on feeding the whole winter with hay and silage in winter. It's something a fool can do!

  Jim thought it was boring, but the team was still on the way of "boring", and was getting closer to the camping place step by step.

  No matter how far away the distance is, as long as you have the perseverance to keep going, you will be able to reach it, just like the slow team now finally arrived at the campsite.

   Gathered all the cattle nearby, everyone got off the horse, and first of all, all the things on the horse's back were unloaded. First of all, instead of camping and cooking, the first thing to do is to count the cows. After all the numbers of cows are matched, remove the saddle, remove the saddle pad, buckle the hooves, and carefully check the horseshoes and so on, and then directly lead the horses. The horse simply brushes the horse down the river.

After brushing, the water on the horse should be dried as much as possible, because the horse can also catch a cold, and after sweating for such a long time, coupled with the low temperature in the mountains, if the horse is allowed to wear sweat on its back, it will It will be very troublesome for the horse to get sick at this time. In the whole process, people are not the first thing to take care of. The first thing to take care of is the cattle and horses.

Jian Heng not only simply brushed the whole body of the black bean, wiped off the water from its body, but also tied a thin blanket around its stomach, like a horse coat, on the one hand to keep it warm, and on the other hand to keep it warm. Prevent some bugs or something.

  Old Walsh didn’t pay much attention to these things, but their work was meticulous enough. There was almost no water droplets left on the horse after drying, and only a blanket was carried on the horse’s back to be covered after eating.

   After such a toss, the camp did not start cooking until nine o'clock.

Although it is in the wild, the food in the camp is quite good. The cooking pot is three-layer, a bit like the multi-layer steamer we use in China. The meat is placed on the bottom, bundled into an arm thick, and has been marinated for a long time. All-day beef rings, served with some potatoes, corn on the cob or something, the second layer is soup, and the top is some vegetables, mainly broccoli.

There is also a small pot beside it, which is shaped like a long iron plate. Remington is scooping out the mixed noodle juice with a spoon at this time, and then pours it on the hot iron plate. Relying on the effect of gravity, waiting for the noodle juice to spread automatically on the iron plate, a small pancake the size of a palm will be cooked.

   Such a small iron plate can make five small pancakes at a time, so the speed is quite fast, and soon Remington has two or three stacks of small pancakes at hand.

   Except for Remington's cooking, everyone else was busy with their own business. Jian Heng and the bodyguard joined hands to set up the tent.

  Two tents were set up quickly in the hands of two veterans. As for the allocation of tents, He Ye naturally lived with his bodyguards, while Jian Heng lived with Jim.

   It’s better to go to the old Walsh’s side. The four of them can directly squeeze into a medium-sized tent. Although it is not crowded, if you want to be comfortable, then don’t think about it.

After finding the tent, everyone hung the saddle pads on the nearest tree branch. After drying, they can put them under the tent to block the moisture from the ground. Steam out a little.

   Don't say anything else, just say this one, think about the smell in the tent! If it wasn't for being tired like a dog all day, living in such a place would not be able to sleep at all.

  This is the life of a cowboy. It has nothing to do with romance, but it is closely related to survival. Real life is never as good as it is in movies.

But if you are in it, you can feel the reality that movies cannot give you. After a day of ordinary hard work, sit quietly by the campfire, use a stainless steel cup, and drink a sip of spirits. If there is an old cowboy willing to share with you When you bump into a cup, it proves that you have won his approval.
