Little Life on An American Ranch

  Chapter 94 Progress

   After enjoying himself for a while, Jian Heng felt that it was almost time for him to sleep.

   Just as he was trying to figure out the space, he saw that the black bean was almost full, and even so, he was still plucking the tender grass bit by bit.

  Jian Heng, who was watching, was a little worried, whether this guy would eat his stomach and burst it while he was sleeping.

  After thinking about it, I decided not to take this risk. After getting it out of the space, I was going to go downstairs and throw the black beans out of the space. Don’t really eat it, and I will lose hundreds of yuan if I burst my stomach.

Out of the space and out of the house, Jian Heng realized that it was already past eleven o'clock, Barley and Mai had already fallen asleep, and Zhang Jialiang was now lying down in his small room downstairs, his snoring could be heard standing in the living room, snoring. The sky-shattering sound.

  Pushing open the door, I saw a bright moon hanging high in the sky, illuminating the pasture brightly.

Because it was too late and afraid of disturbing others, Jian Heng did not ride a mountain bike or a horse. While admiring the moonlight, he just opened his legs and walked directly towards the small woods where the cattle lived. Humming a few out-of-key songs.

   I have to say that the sky in Montana is really beautiful, and it deserves to be called the State of the Sky, not only during the day, but also at night.

The sky in Montana has an indescribable sense of transparency, even the night is three points bluer than other places. Let’s put it this way, the night sky in New York seems to be above the city, while the night sky in Montana seems to be nine days away. Outside, there is no match for emptiness.

  Hold your hands behind your back, let your body face the moonlight, and cast a long shadow on the grass. Suddenly, there is an artistic conception of being in the bright moonlight in front of the bed and looking up at the bright moon.

  Walking and looking, it seems that I can't see anything, but I seem to see a lot.

When Jian Heng was a cowboy here, he never felt that the night on the ranch was beautiful, nor did he think how beautiful Montana was praised by others, but when he changed his identity and became a rancher, he had money in his pocket. , when he no longer rushes about life all day long, Jian Heng seems to have finally grasped its beauty.

   Arriving near the woods, as expected, all the horses gathered in the woods, and the leader was still a strong and big bison. It lies on the outermost edge of the woods like a guard.

The stag, with its gorgeous antlers on its head, walks lightly around the woods. Its steps are brisk and natural, as beautiful as slender bare hands twirling the strings of a lyre. A shimmer.

  The two tigers are now squatting on the back of the big bison, lying in a ball, like a white pompom growing out of the back of the bison.

  Seeing Jian Heng coming alone, the big buffalo stood up, and the two tigers also came over. As for the buck, it jumped in front of Jian Heng before the other two arrived.

  He stretched out his hand and patted the deer's nose, Jian Heng flicked his hand to get the black beans out.

  The black beans that just came out seemed unable to adapt to the transition from bright sunshine to dark all of a sudden. With a clump of grass in their mouths, they were stunned.

  When it found that it had returned to the pasture from the fairy-like place, it immediately became a little unhappy. After Xi Lulu yelled a few times, it turned to look at Jian Heng.

Soon it had to take a few steps back, and stopped at a place about ten meters away from Jian Heng. It still had the clump of grass in its mouth, but it didn't chew. It seemed a little dumbfounded, looking at Jian Heng and Jian Heng. Dear big buffalo, two tigers and stag.

  At this time, Heidou really wanted to get close to Jian Heng and return to the place just now.

  But it didn't dare, out of instinct it didn't dare to get close to the three things around Jian Heng, and it couldn't be said to be out of fear, but more out of animal instinct, a kind of respect for the superior.

  This feeling makes Heidou a little uncomfortable. As a young horse who has just become a horse king, Heidou is not lacking in courage. It can be said that his current courage is tight.

   Even so, its instinct still tells it to stay away from these three things, not to try to challenge or even irritate them, the consequences of angering them are not something it can bear.

  It is precisely because of this feeling that the black beans retreat when they first come out, and then stop when they retreat until they feel comfortable.

The bison, the two tigers, and the stag are completely different from Heidou. They don't care what Heidou thinks. They just want to get close to their master. This kind of closeness seems to be destined for them. For a moment, their lives are destined to be closely connected with their masters.

  Jian Heng didn't know how Heidou felt at this time, he just enjoyed this intimate moment with the bull, the two tigers and the stag.

   "Okay, let's go back!" Jian Heng stretched out his hand and pushed the necks of Daniel and the deer, and then stretched out his hand to lift the two tigers onto Daniel's back again.

  After listening to Jian Heng's words, Daniel and the Buck started to walk into the woods.

Looking at their backs, Jian Heng began to mutter to himself: "The cow can be called Daniu, and it goes well with Erhu, but this stag can't be called Sanlu, it's not a very good name." It sounds so bad! What else can it be called Sanlu? Sandai? Fool? Papaya?”.

Thinking of the deer's temperament that seems to be very showy, and it seems that he has no skills, a name suddenly popped up in Jian Heng's mind, and then he slapped his thigh: "By the way, it's a pity that its virtue is not called Qianlong. ".

   "Qianlong!"

   After Jian Heng yelled at the deer, the deer sensed that Jian Heng was calling him, and then turned his head and yelled at Jian Heng twice.

"Okay, Daniu, Erhu, Qianlong, plus Denver, this name is finally alive!" Speaking of this, Jian Heng remembered that the next one was carp, and when he thought of naming carp, he suddenly thought again. Subconsciously reached out and scratched his head.

  The fish hasn’t been finished yet, Jian Heng gave up after thinking about it, let’s talk about it when the time comes.

  Anyway, today’s business was done pretty well, Jian Heng decided to go back and have a drink or two before going to sleep.

  Thinking about this, Jian Heng naturally turned around and walked back. After walking about ten meters, he felt that there seemed to be something following him behind him. Turning his head to look, he found that it was black beans.

  As soon as Jian Heng stopped, Black Bean also stopped. Standing seven or eight meters away from Jian Heng, he snorted and gently scratched the grass in front of him with his front hooves.

  It's the way horses relax, and it's their little tricks of play.

  Seeing this, Jian Heng smiled and said, "I didn't realize that you are still a glutton, what's the matter? You are satisfied with the grass inside, so you don't want to eat the grass outside?"

  Jian Heng thought that Black Dou wanted to eat space grass. This idea cannot be wrong. It is quite right, but it is not complete.

  This is only one reason, but not all. The bigger reason is that now the horses are mixed with the cattle, guarded by Daniel and Qianlong.

  As a cowboy, how could Jian Heng miss such a good opportunity to communicate with Heidou, he grabbed a handful of grass from the space, spread it flat on his hands, and stretched straight forward.

   "Come, let's eat"

   Hoo!

Black Dou exhaled a rough air from his nostrils, and also smelled the fragrance of grass in Jian Heng's hands, so it began to struggle. As a stallion, and a tall and strong stallion, it had its own pride, but it I also understand that the person in front of me seems to be able to provide me with delicious food and even greater protection.

  From the attitude of the three dangerous creatures towards the person in front of him, an instinct is willing to get close to the person in front of him, but it is a little hesitant and a little anxious.

Although he is not a good horse trainer, Jian Heng also knows that you must not be impatient at this time, but be patient and let the horse approach you instead of you stepping up to the horse, which will directly scare the horse away .

  So Jian Heng remained still, motionless, just stretched out his hand, and said softly to the black beans: "Come, eat, I won't hurt you!"

  He said it with his mouth, but he also thought it in his heart.

  At this time, horses are very sensitive. They seem to be able to feel people's hearts. At this moment, the more sincere people are, the easier it is to win the trust of horses.

  Heidou wanted to step forward a few times, but in the end he withdrew it. He still snorted from time to time, let out a low and rhythmic hiss, but hesitated.

  Jian Heng stood still, like a statue in the moonlight, telling himself in his heart: Don't worry, don't worry! The harder it is to approach a horse, the easier it is to build trust!

  Standing for about a quarter of an hour, Black Bean finally took a tentative step forward. Although he retreated quickly, this was a good progress, indicating that it had begun to test.

   After another two or three minutes, Heidou finally stood in front of Jian Heng and stretched his neck as far as possible to reach the space grass in Jian Heng's hand.

   He took all the grass away in one bite, moved his mouth a few times, and the grass stems were completely retracted into his mouth.

   "Okay, let's go to rest." Jian Heng stretched out his hand and slowly pushed it out, wanting to touch the bridge of Heidou's nose.

  Xi Law!

  Black Dou immediately took a step back.

  Jian Heng was not unhappy because he didn't touch the black beans, but smiled at it, then waved his hand and said softly: "Go back!"

   After speaking, he turned and walked back towards the house.

  Heidou still followed, Jian Heng could feel it, but he didn't turn his head, let alone stop in his footsteps, he just walked without looking back, humming softly while walking, making himself look very calm and relaxed.

  When he got to the side of the house, Heidou stopped in his tracks. Seeing that Jian Heng was still walking forward, he raised his head: "Xilulu!"

  At this moment, Jian Heng turned his head and waved his hand at it: "Go back, go back!"

   After speaking, he stepped into the house.

   Entering the house, Jian Heng did not rush upstairs, but opened a small gap in the living room curtains, and observed the black beans not far from the house.

  At this moment, Heidou was standing in front of the house, and instead of turning his head back, he began to pace slowly, showing a look of impatience, and snorted heavily from time to time.

   "What's the matter?" Jian Heng was a little confused.

  Jian Heng didn't know, Heidou felt helpless now, and the horses dared not go back. Finally, he was a little dependent on the people he wanted to be close to, and they also left.

  Alone with a horse, feeling very helpless, made Heidou very insecure.

   Seeing Heidou's performance, Jian Heng had no choice but to go downstairs and out of the house again.

   Seeing Jian Heng coming out, Heidou suddenly became quiet, jumped up happily, shook his head and started to step on the grass in front of him again with his left front hoof.

   "Damn, no, you would think that I would stay with you for a night like this. Let me tell you, buddy is training horses, not Yizhuoying!" Jian Heng said dumbfounded.

   If he didn't want to stay with Heidou all night, the easiest way Jian Heng could think of was to send Heidou back to the horses, and then go back with him when he thought of it.

   After seducing him two or three times with space grass, Heidou finally got a few meters closer, and now he was almost behind Jian Heng.

  Arrived in front of the woods, Jian Heng called Daniel and Qianlong directly, they specially introduced Heidou, and then said something like don’t bully it, and get along well.

  It may be that the communication between animals is more clear than that between animals and people. Daniel mooed at Heidou, and Heidou happily moved over.

   In front of Jian Heng, Heidou stretched out his mouth and bit the back of the big cow, which was not good for a horse, because this is the way a horse pleases others.

   "Damn!" Jian Heng despised Heidou.

Everything was settled, Jian Heng walked back, walked about 20 meters and looked back, and found that the black bean not only didn't follow, but now he was lying on the grass, with the head of the four-hoofed horse straightened and leaning against it. On Daniel's ass.

   Looking from Jian Heng, I can see that this guy has two big nostrils and a mouthful of white teeth, which look really bright under the moonlight!

  “.”

  Now Jian Heng felt that Heidou was not at all like his previous mount.

In any case, Jian Heng has established a preliminary relationship with Heidou, and the rest can be done slowly. Anyway, Jian Heng does not lack horses to ride, and Heidou is still a little younger. It is not impossible to ride now. , just a little early.
