Chapter five hundred and thirty fifth strange things at night
As the saying goes, "Grow vegetables in cold dew, and plant wheat in frost. ([] )"
After planting wheat, almost all the flowers in the fields have bloomed and all the leaves have fallen. The birds in the mountains that are not suitable for cold climates have flapped their wings and left a foreign land. If you don’t want to worry about it, just find a hole and start the cat.
There is no farm work in the field now. The farmers who have been busy for more than half a year have finally become idle and become more lazy. However, such days are still tolerant for one or two days. Over time, the young people are a little unbearable and make an appointment to go to the mountains to catch wild boars.
Wild boar hunting is a project that has emerged in Liujiagou in recent years. It is mainly because the wild boars in Daqing Mountains are flooding. Every autumn and winter, the weather turns colder and the food in the mountains decreases. Most wild boars run to the periphery of the mountains and go down the mountain from time to time to steal wheat seedlings.
The day before yesterday, a brave wild boar rushed to the village in broad daylight and stole food, which scared the person. It was indeed necessary to kill a few of them and kill them with great power.
Liu Junqi and the others came to explain their purpose, and Liu Junhao also had the intention to go. However, his family could not live without people, so he could only contribute two macular skins.
Then he called Zhao Guangming again and asked if the other party would come.
The guy had a few days ago when he heard that he was going to go into the mountains to hunt wild boars, he immediately became interested. He kept shouting on the phone, saying that he would wait for ten minutes and he rushed over immediately.
After seeing off the hunting team, Liu Junhao took advantage of his two children's sleep and started to be busy in the backyard again and cleaned the fallen leaves in the yard. Otherwise, it would rain in spring and rush into the ditch, which would easily cause congestion and water accumulation, and it would be inconvenient to catch eels in the future.
He was busy in front, and two squirrels followed behind and squeaked and squeaked.
The little kid brought her white hair with her eyes. Liu Junhao threw it into the stone lock space from time to time to recuperate when his wife went to school. In just a few days, the squirrel's injuries had healed, and now he is not afraid of people.
In order to distinguish the two squirrels, Liu Junhao named this one Baitiao according to his characteristics. After hearing this, his wife even said it was vulgar, but she did not refute it, so the name Baitiao was decided.
I had similar people at home. Diandian felt that his territory was being violated and kept baring his teeth and driving Baitiao away. This situation lasted only two days, and soon the two squirrels adapted to each other and began to chase and play in the yard. Yesterday, the sun was good at noon, and Baitiao even helped Diandian move the cabbage leaves it stored out to dry. In that situation, he completely regarded himself as half the master.
He was busy. The cell phone in his pocket rang, and a familiar tourist opened it: "Liu Junhao, don't you want a hedgehog?"
"Hedgehog, what do I want this thing?" Liu Junhao responded casually.
"That's right. I was walking in the garden of the community yesterday. I heard a noise in the flower pond. When I walked in, I found a hedgehog hidden inside. After I got it home, I fed it apples. It didn't eat it at all, it shrank into a ball and did not move."
"It's right not to move. At this time, hedgehogs hibernate early." Liu Junhao answered on the phone.
"I think so too, afraid that the hedgehog will freeze to death if it goes down. How about you?" the tourist said again.
"Sweat. Don't worry about it. Take it directly to the suburbs and dig a hole. Just put it inside and then bury some leaves on it." Liu Junhao replied depressedly. Now people regard their homes as animal shelter. They just received a squirrel a few days ago, and now someone sends hedgehogs.
"Oh. How deep do you need to dig... Hedgehog needs breathing when hibernation. Will the leaves on it be covered with thick and thick? Will it be covered with too thin. What if the hedgehog is frozen to death?" Unexpectedly, the other party asked a series of questions again.
I couldn't explain it clearly on the phone, so Liu Junhao had to answer: "Just send it here."
Saving a hedgehog's life is better than creating a seven-level pagoda. It's no matter how you say it's a life. He decided to wait until the hedgehog is sent to Liujiagou and throw it directly into the stone lock. The weather will be warmer next spring and then release it. Anyway, this thing will not eat fish.
Zhao Guangming and others were lucky. Not long after entering the mountain, they found traces of wild boars. Hunting by several yellow skins, two wild boars were recorded in the morning.
In the afternoon, Liu Junqi cut the pork directly and gave it to him, which was 20 or 30 kilograms. Liu Junhao and his wife couldn't finish it, so they cut half of it for Professor Zhao's house.

The weather became colder day by day, and the cold was particularly heavy at night. She coaxed the two little guys to fall asleep. Zhang Qian was still early to watch, so she got up and sat in front of the computer to watch TV series. As a result, she started stomping her feet in half an hour.
It didn't work at all, the more you stomped your feet, the colder you became. There was no choice but to shout Liu Junhao and make a brazier.
Only when the raging charcoal fire burned did the cold air around me gradually disappear.
Then Zhang Qian threw two handfuls of peanuts into the brazier, and watched TV series while eating roasted peanuts. She didn't pay attention to the time at all. She was not careful and it was already past 11 o'clock in the evening.
So... I was anxious, the TV series was paused, and then I hurried to the toilet.
As soon as she arrived at the bamboo pole forest on the east side of the house, she heard a clamor from above. She quickly stopped and turned her head to look upwards, and was stunned.
After solving his personal problems, Zhang Qian rushed into the bedroom and shouted her husband again.
"What are you doing?" Liu Junhao didn't know what his wife was doing, and he was sleepy now.
"Get up quickly, I'll take you to see it." Zhang Qian pulled his hand under the bed.
"Wife, see when it's time and what strange things are, just tell me just." The bed was very warm, and Liu Junhao didn't want to get out of bed at all.
"I just went to the bathroom and saw a lot of turtle doves in our bamboo forest." Seeing that my husband couldn't come down, Zhang Qian had to tell the story.
"It's so normal. Professor Zhao's family feeds turtle doves, and some nights stay in the bamboo pole forest." Liu Junhao really didn't understand what was strange about this. He replied, and he fell asleep again.
"Have me up! Different, I'll ask you how many turtledoves are in the house of Professor Zhao?" Zhang Qian pulled her husband up again.
"There are forty or fifty people," Liu Junhao estimated that there should have been more. However, Professor Zhao couldn't manage it. In the past two years, a lot of them flew away one after another, and the number has not increased much.
"That's right, guess how many I saw in the bamboo pole forest just now? There are two or three hundred. Moreover, the place where they live is different from usual, and they fall very low, so they can reach it with their hands. Is this a rare thing?"
"Not count... wife, you won't just shout me up because of this, right?" Liu Junhao had already understood the whole thing clearly, but he still didn't find any strangeness. The phenomenon of turtle doves gathering is rarely seen by ordinary people, but Liu Junhao has seen it many times.
"Then explain to me why they gathered so many times tonight and fell so low." Seeing her husband's calm expression, Zhang Qian was very disappointed.
"The reason is very simple. Why did you ignite a brazier tonight?" After such a toss, Liu Junhao was no longer sleepy and asked patiently.
"Of course it's cold, you said the turtledove is also..." Zhang Qian woke up.
"By the way. This is the experience I summarized in catching turtledoves back then. Don't tell others. If others know, the turtledoves in Liujiagou will suffer." Liu Junhao said proudly: "Often people think that turtledoves are living in bird's nests all year round. In fact, this view is outrageous. Except for the period of hatching, turtledoves rarely spend overnight in the nest. Their habitat has a lot to do with temperature, and the temperature affects the habitat of turtledoves.
Especially in autumn and winter, the weather is very cold, and turtle doves usually find shelter places to stay overnight. They consciously live in groups. At night, there are also arrangements for turtle doves to watch. When encountering danger, turtle doves will scream and wake up other turtle doves."
"No way, is the turtledove so smart? Why haven't I seen it in the encyclopedia? That's summarized by experts." Zhang Qian asked in confusion.
"Will those experts stay in the wild to observe the turtledoves in the evening in winter?" Liu Junhao asked disdainfully. What... Practice leads to true knowledge, which is the valuable experience he and Liu Qiyong summed up in teaming up to kill birds at night.
In fact, many birds are smarter than people think, and the same is true for turtle doves. Many people know that turtle doves will croak for a while before returning to the nest, and then fall back into the nest. After a few minutes, another turtle dove will come back.
This phenomenon is very common. Most people probably won’t think so much when they see it.
Liu Junhao and the others were different. After a long period of observation and accumulation, they finally concluded that the first turtle dove flew back was a sentry that kept the news. If the turtle dove found that there was danger, it would turn its head and fly away, so that the second turtle dove would not come back in a short time.
So at that time, they made a hit by the birds, that is, they either killed them as soon as the turtle dove sentry rushed back. Or they waited patiently and waited for the other turtle doves to return to their nests before hitting them.
The same is true when turtle doves gather in winter. The lower the temperature, the lower their stopping point. When it reaches a few degrees below zero, the turtle doves will soon fall to the ground.
One winter evening, Liu Junhao and his friends found many turtle doves flying into the woods at the entrance of the village, so they made an appointment to come over to beat the turtle doves at night.
The scene I saw at that time was very similar to what Zhang Qian described just now. No matter the height of the trees in the whole forest, there were turtle doves on almost every tree, and they fell very low.
They caught a whole sack without much effort. In the 1900s, the information of Daqingshan was blocked and no one came to collect wild game. Therefore, they did not sell them when they caught the turtle doves. Each person took a lot of them back to their homes and fryed them.
In the following days, they kept hunting, and the woods were harvested every time. However, when the temperature rose, a turtle dove could not be found in that place.
"I feel very reliable after listening to your analysis." Zhang Qian nodded convincingly.
"Of course" Liu Junhao is talking about his sexuality now, and he opened his mouth to tell his wife about the precautions for hunting turtle doves at night. The best time is after eleven o'clock, when the turtle doves is in a deep sleep state, even the sentinels who are vigilant are no exception. At this time, catching turtle doves is the easiest time, and occasionally there is a noise. If it is too early, use a flashlight to irradiate the tree, it is easy to wake up the turtle doves. As long as a turtle dove is screaming, the action will be declared a failure.
After hearing what he said, Zhang Qian said happily: "Your research on turtle doves is obtained from catching them, right?"
"Well... I was young and ignorant at that time, and now I have already changed my evil spirits and returned to the right place." He made a weak defense.
