Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 307: laughing stock
Chapter 307 Laughing Stock
In the morning, the sun had just risen from the east, and before it climbed into the air, Jian Heng was brushing the black beans and picking their hooves, when the phone on his waist rang.
Jian Heng took out the phone, clamped it between his shoulders and head, and answered the phone while working: "Hello?"
"Jean, Gene, great news" A man's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Jian Heng was taken aback for a while, but couldn't tell who was on the other end of the phone. After a moment of stunned, he asked, "Excuse me, who is it?"
The other end of the phone said: "I'm Brady, our BOSS asked me to call you to inform you that the wolf king was shot dead by the guards."
Brady is the guy at Anderson Ranch.
"What!" Jian Heng exclaimed in surprise, and instantly straightened his body. The body was a subconscious reaction, so the phone fell to the ground with a bang.
Picked up the phone again, and heard Brady on the other end saying hello, so Jian Heng asked, "When did it happen?"
"In the morning, our boss just received the news that this time the guards killed more than 200 wolves. At about half past eight o'clock, the wolf corpses will be gathered in the town for everyone to identify." Brady is very happy, for a For cowboys, this is a normal reaction, and people like Jian Heng are completely on the side of wolves.
As soon as Jian Heng heard what Brady meant, Jian Heng understood that this was a group of politicians who felt that they had done something beneficial to voters, so they were going to show the "results" to everyone.
In the west, farmers and ranchers are the main voters, and they are also the source of funds for politicians to campaign, so the death of the wolf king has given these politicians an opportunity. Maybe after this 'show', there will be a The donation dinner and so on are waiting for the surrounding big farmers and ranchers.
Brady doesn't know that the neighbor is waiting for the wolf king to stop and play tricks to lower the land price. He continues to chat happily with Jian Heng.
As soon as Jian Heng heard that it happened in the morning, he immediately lost his mind. Thinking of the four-eyed black returning to the space to heal his wounds yesterday, his heart suddenly felt as if he had knocked down a bottle of five ignorance, and all kinds of feelings rushed into his heart. Know how you feel.
"Are you listening?" Brady asked again.
Jian Heng replied: "Yes, yes, I know, I must go and see it then!"
Jian Heng didn't wait for Brady to speak after finishing speaking, he directly cut off the phone, grabbed Heidou and put it on the saddle, then got on Heidou's back and ran towards the mountain, trying to use his own The idea is connected with the four-eyed black.
It's a pity that even if Jian Heng left his pasture and walked into the old forest for a while, he didn't sense any information about the four-eyed black, so Jian Heng can only hope that the black wolf that the so-called guards killed was not the four-eyed black.
With something on his mind, Jian Heng ran around again. Not only did he miss the time for breakfast, but after returning to the ranch, he looked at his watch and found that it was almost time, so he urged Heidou to run to the town again.
As soon as Jian Heng approached the town, he realized that he was not the only one who cared about this matter. It can be said that the surrounding ranchers and farmers were all concentrated here. Not only the nearby farmers and ranchers, but also people from several nearby small towns drove over to see the glory of the wolf king.
Of course, there were ranchers who came to watch the excitement, and animal protectionists who came to protest with flags and placards. It looked very imposing, and everyone shouted slogans angrily.
The most interesting thing is fifteen or sixteen women, some in their twenties, some in their forties or fifties, each wearing a big cotton padded jacket, but only a bikini inside, with various words written on their exposed bodies. The most funny thing about the slogan is that some of them have gun holes painted on their bodies, and one even uses the props used on the set. After putting them on, the body looks like it has been shot by an arrow at first glance. .
Each of these women spread a blanket on the ground, opened their clothes, and sat on the blanket shaking the cards in their hands.
In addition to the cowboys and the protesting crowd, there were also a few TV stations' OB vans, and several anchors were talking to the camera with microphones.
I have to say that today was a big battle.
To be honest, it was the first time that Jian Heng saw this kind of battle in the United States for so long, so he sat on the horse and admired it, and then rode the black beans across the road to the field, and also It's on a large open space not far from the bar.
It used to be a small livestock auction house, but it was abandoned because the town was getting smaller and smaller. The land belongs to the state, so now there are no buildings on it, and no one is planting things on it, which is suitable for today's situation .
Before Jian Heng got off his horse, he heard the voices of barley and wheat: "Jane, here, here!"
As soon as Jian Heng looked up, he found that the two sisters were standing on the four-wheeled cart used for decoration at the entrance of Sarah's bar. Besides them, there was also the old veterinarian Juan in the car, and several children from the Martinez family were standing there. Watching the fun in the carriage.
Putting the black beans aside, and not tying them to graze, Jian Heng trotted over to the side of the cart, stretched out his hand to grab the side of the cart, and then held a beautiful diving leap with both hands and stabilized stood in the car.
"How's it going?" Jian Heng asked as soon as he got into the car.
The big car is not close to the place where the wolf corpses are placed, about 30 meters away, but fortunately, the one here is relatively high, and the ground of the big car is about 1.5 meters high, so it is easy to see the situation in the crowd .
At this time, three wolf carcasses had been placed in the open space, and two wolf carcasses were hung on a wooden shelf. The five wolves were all adult male wolves, no matter in terms of their bones or coat color. They are all male wolves in their prime of life, the big ones.
At this time, Juan Lynch came to Jian Heng's side. Seeing Jian Heng looking at the wolf, the old man explained boringly: "This is the thug of the shadow of death. I have seen the light gray wolf among them. It looks like the wolf king." It was literally wiped out by the National Guard."
"Let's wait and see." Now that Jian Heng heard the old man say this, he thought how he could feel better when he had dark eyes. After saying a word, he turned his gaze to the intersection.
Just when Jian Heng turned his eyes to the intersection, a micro-car painted with the logo of the Montana National Guard drove out from the fork in the Eagle Ranch in North Africa, and the turn signal on the front of the car signaled to turn here.
Not only Jian Heng discovered the car, but many people also saw it. The cowboys who watched the excitement naturally would not move, but the protesting crowd turned to the car immediately, and some radicals couldn't stand it. He patted the car body, and then yelled loudly at the driver and the guards in the car.
About 30 meters of the road, because these people blocked it for 15 minutes, and then entered the empty field surrounded by cowboys.
From this aspect, we can also see the bullying of these protesters. They can deal with the guards, but they dare not provoke the cowboys.
When the car stopped, another soldier pushed open the back door of the micro card, jumped out of the car, got out of the car, and started working with the two soldiers who were still standing on the truck. Something like a flatbed cart was pulled to the door of the car.
Jian Heng saw the huge fluffy black tail on the car, and couldn't help but thumped in his heart. He couldn't bear to look at it, so he turned his head away.
The other cowboys naturally became excited at this time, and many people began to raise their hands and cheered.
It took two minutes for the four soldiers to drag the wolf corpse from the car and place it in the center of the field.
Jian Heng had already looked away at this time, and it took a while to turn his gaze back to the wolf corpse. The wolf corpse in the field had lost most of its head, and only a few pieces of meat hung on the neck where the head used to be. With the head gone, naturally the wolf's face would no longer be visible.
When Jian Heng's eyes swept over the wolf's tail, he suddenly froze for a bit.
A voice jumped out of my heart instantly: It's not four-eyed black!
Although Jian Heng doesn't know much about Four Eyes Hei now, he knows that Four Eyes Hei's whole body is covered with black hair. Although it is a bit dirty, Jian Heng is sure that there is no stray hair on Four Eyes Hei's body, and this one has no head. The wolf has a pinch of white hair under the tail near the buttocks. It is obvious that if the four eyes are black, it is impossible for Jian Heng not to see it.
Seeing the characteristics of the dead wolf, Jian Heng observed it more carefully. At this time, he found that although the headless wolf was big, slightly bigger than the five wolves hanging here, it definitely did not reach the dead wolf. With a four-eyed black body, at least twenty or thirty catties less in weight.
"This is not the shadow of death at all!"
At this time, an old cowboy also opened his mouth.
It was the old cowboy Sam who was speaking, that is, the cowboy with black eyes who met Toby before. He denied that the dead body was the shadow of death of the wolf king, and all the cowboys showed deep thinking expressions on their faces.
"This is that wolf!" A soldier said confidently: "The shadow of death you mentioned is trapped in a small canyon by us. Unless it can fly, it is impossible to survive."
The soldier's confidence comes from his cognition. It has to be said that the National Guard did drive Four Eyes Hei and its pack of wolves into the canyon, and injured Four Eyes Hei with a grenade.
Ordinary wolves must be dead, but the soldiers don't know that the four-eyed black also has a heaven-defying magic skill: teleport back to space!
Having said that, if Four Eyes Hei hadn't passed the time so smoothly and underestimated human beings, none of these people would have seized the opportunity to force it into the canyon.
"Definitely not!" Sam shook his head, walked to the wolf corpse on the ground, stretched out his foot and kicked the wolf corpse on the ground: "Although it is not small, it can't compare with the shadow of death alone." .
At this moment, a cowboy in the crowd suddenly yelled loudly: "The Shadow of Death led more than twenty wolves and attacked Thomas' ranch, killing three cattle dogs and four bulls." !"
While talking, the cowboy raised the phone in his hand. Anyone who is close can see the video being played on his phone. A majestic black giant wolf is standing at the entrance of the fence that was breached in the ranch, using its His cold eyes stared at the camera, and not far from it, several gray wolves were biting a strong British bull.
As soon as the video came out, this so-called celebration party became a laughing stock in an instant!
