Chapter 148 The Horn of Terror
The bark that is made of a bark must be smooth and smooth.
Therefore, Xu Chen wandered around the woods for a while, chose a small tree with straight and smooth stems, slowly cut the bark into a spiral shape with a copper knife, and then peeled it off one round after another to obtain a bark of more than one meter long.
Roll the bark into a funnel-shaped trumpet.
Cut a thin willow branch as thick as a thumb, make a willow flute and stuff it into the thin mouth of the trumpet.
Collect the bark carefully.
The trumpet mouth was tightened with a few spines, afraid that the nail would loosen if it was not tight enough. Xu Chen tied it a few more rounds with the slender bark.
In this way, a two-foot-long bark horn was completed.
"Woo~Woo~~"
Xu Chen tried to blow a few times and found that it could blow it, and the sound was quite loud, but it was very ugly, like an old ox with a thirsty throat.
The crops in the farmland grow lushly, surrounded by thorny, wild grasses and bushes that are more than one person tall.
Gu Heju took a group of children and led a few monkeys into two groups to patrol back and forth around.
A group of wild horses patrolling back and forth in the grass near the farmland near the river beach. The tall figures appeared and disappeared among the dense weeds and thorns, and from time to time, a short neighing and sniffing sound could be heard.
In addition, in the lower reaches of the river beach, there are also some small herbivores such as wild sheep, wild deer, and wild muntjac. While eating grass, they are constantly observing the direction of the farmland.
Things are strong and old.
In midsummer, everything is strong, the weeds on the river beach grow taller than people, the reeds are continuous, the stems and leaves are hard, and they taste very bad, and most of them are completely unable to chew. Therefore, mature oats and wild beans have become the favorite food for animals.
These seeds are rich in a lot of starch and protein, and they will gain weight when eaten, which will store energy for winter.
The farmland has the most plant seeds, so it is also popular among all herbivores.
If you are not prepared, you will run up to grab a few bites.
People die for money, and birds die for food.
For a delicious bite, these animals and birds are always observing the patrol movements. They are fighting guerrilla wars around the farmland.
Although Gu He raised his hand and had a bow and arrow, it actually had a very small threat to these beasts. The bow and arrow made according to their arm strength have small power and short range. In addition, the weeds are too deep and the surrounding environment is complex, which can at most be a shocking and deterrent effect. However, the more times I was scared, the group of beasts were all oily and didn't care at all.
The area of 100 acres of farmland is not small. The patrol effect of two minors and a group of playful children is also very bare.
Half an hour ago, a group of wild horses went to the farmland to steal food. After driving them out, seven or eight of them rushed into the center of the farmland. Although they were driven out, you can clearly see several long traces of being trampled and falling inside.
This critical moment is destroyed and the possibility of harvest is basically lost.
"Yohohohohohohoho..."
Gu Heju and his two children were each shouting at the wild horses who were rushing back and forth around the farmland, hoping to scare them away.
But because of their height, long legs, fast speed, these long and fast Oba did not take human threats seriously. They even occasionally rushed to the edge of the field with a loud noise and ate a few bites, then trembled with a proud whistle and crawled into the grass.
Perhaps they also see that humans do not want to hurt them.
Therefore, this courage became even more and more powerful.
"Didi~~"
"Shoot!"
"Run, run, run, run..."
"Squeak squeak..."
Amid the shouts of a group of children and monkeys and the sounds of the willow flutes one after another, Gu Heju was exhausted and could only chase the horse's butt and shoot one or two arrows at each time, and he went back and forth for more than ten times, and was already tired and dizzy.
Xu Chen wore a straw hat made of weeds on his head, slowly approaching the farmland from the entrance of the canyon.
Driven by Gu Heju, the herd of horses was running from the dense and lush weeds. After breaking away from Gu Heju's sight, it immediately rushed to the edge of the field and started to eat hard.
Xu Chen appeared not far from the horses with a weed, but he did not rush to blow the trumpet and scare the horses away, but observed carefully and began to drool.
There were not all the horses that came to steal food, about ten, leading the way was the most powerful black stallion, and there were also a few young and strong new generations who looked fat and strong. What made him covet the most were the three ponies inside.
These three ponies are about the same size as those raised in the kiln factory. They should also be the foals born in the spring of last year. They are now quite large, with about the same high shoulders. They should be able to ride by the age of two next spring. Now they are the most rebellious middle school second-year period.
It would be great if we could catch these three pony too.
Xu Chen was still thinking about how to catch these pony. Gu Heju rushed over with his bow and arrow panting and shouting, and at the same time shot an arrow from afar. However, the group of horses didn't care at all and continued to eat slowly.
Too much!
I have been reminded of archery, but I still eat it so blatantly.
While Xu Chen was amused and crying, he probably understood Gu Heju’s recent troubles.
Under his appeasement policy, these horses have become old men and are indeed difficult to drive away.
Although he coveted these wild horses very much, after all, the food that had been hard for several months fell into the horse's mouth, which was quite distressing.
Therefore, Xu Chen slowly put the bark horn to his mouth, held his breath, and then blew it suddenly.
“Woo~~~”
The long and low monster sounded like a choking voice suddenly sounded behind a group of wild horses.
The manes on a group of horses instantly fry and stand up as visible to the naked eye.
Under extreme fright, the horses were like being targeted by terrifying beasts, frightened to the point of blowing up the nest. Some turned their heads and fled into the grass, some fled into the farmland, and some were panicked and tripped by the ridges of the field, and they were in a panic and suddenly became a mess.
"Woo~Woo~Woo~~~"
Xu Chen blew hard a few times again, and the sound of the horn sounded from the wild grass whirling with the wind was rolling out like muffled thunder.
In this kind of intimidation that I had never heard before, the group of wild horses who were still calm just now were completely frightened. After a burst of chaos, they fled in all directions, disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving only a few traces of rapid departure and the sound of horse hooves in the farmland and weeds. Countless wild birds flew along the way, and the flapping edges were everywhere.
Little girl, I'm a little tender when fighting with me.
Xu Chen spitted and rubbed his face and came out of the grass.
The willow bark tasted bitter, and it felt bad when you blew a few times. In addition, it was too hard to use force, and the cheeks were a little painful.
Xu Chen frightened the wild horses away. Gu Heju, who was chasing over there, was also frightened by the terrifying sounds suddenly coming from the grass. He screamed and turned his head and ran back, chasing a group of wild children who were also frightened and panicked. The monkey didn't want them anymore, and protected them to run and escape in the direction of the courtyard.
The weeds are too deep to see nothing.
Xu Chen didn't know that Gu Heju was scared away. He stood there and waited for a long time but didn't see Gu Heju coming over. Looking at the endless weeds that were undulating with the wind, listening to the sound of snakes and insects crawling from the grass around him, he suddenly shivered for no reason, and then quickly ran back with the bark trumpet.
Now is the time when there are the most venomous snakes. If you are bitten by a highly venomous snake like Ba Snake, you will be afraid that your life will be lost.
When Xu Chen was so scared that he ran back to the vicinity of the compound, he found that Gu Heju had returned with a group of children, each of whom was pale and trembling in the direction of the farmland with horror.
At this time, a large group of men and women rushed out of the yard, with extremely frightened and nervous faces on their faces.
A few terrifying sounds that had never been heard came suddenly, and then I heard Gu Heju and a large group of children running in fear. Mother Ba and a group of adult men and women were all frightened. However, just after running out, I saw a group of children who were fine. Before I could ask, I saw Xu Chen running back from the direction of the farmland with a strange thing.
"Chenga!"
Seeing Xu Chen, he looked panicked, and a large group of people rushed forward and surrounded him.
"Moxie Gaga?"
Gu He raised a group of children and grabbed Xu Chen's arm excitedly and nervously, pointing to the direction of the farmland.
Xu Chen was inexplicably excited to everyone, but after everyone heard the terrifying and strange sound, he realized it. He breathed a sigh of relief and raised the bark trumpet in his hand to explain.
"The horn is for scaring horses!"
"Horse, Moxie Gaga?"
Everyone was full of fear and confusion.
Xu Chen knew that he couldn't explain clearly, so he simply put himself in his mouth and blew hard.
“Woo~~”
A strange sound as low as a sound of a choking sound came out among the crowd.
Everyone was shocked, and the riot retreated and all looked at the bark trumpet in his hand in horror.
"It's not a monster, it's a horn, it's used to scare horses!"
Xu Chen explained again that in order to dispel everyone's doubts and fear, he also pulled out the Liu Di inside to display it, and put it in his mouth and blew it.
"Drip~~"
The sound this time was normal, sharp and clear.
"Put it in, blow it loudly..."
Xu Chen inserted the Liu Di again, tightened the bark slightly, and blew it again.
“Woo~~~”
This time it turned into a low, thick and voice-breaking voice again.
"Soga!"
A group of men, women, young and old finally understood, and then made a burst of wailing exclamations.
"Return!"
Mother Ba Cang's old face showed a look of relief, touched Xu Chen's head and turned back to the yard.
The group of women also calmed down and left in groups of three or three.
Chapter completed!
