Lisko's American life
Chapter 35 The Lost Calf
A few days later, Lisko received a message from Halle that he really went to travel to find inspiration as he suggested.
"Lee," the rooster ran over.
Lisko was basking in the sun on the roof garden, and when he heard the shout, he took down the book covering his face and stood on the roof to respond.
"what happened?"
"Our ranch seems to have entered a wolf." The rooster was anxious.
Lisko immediately went downstairs.The two of them walked out and introduced the situation.
"I found out that two calves were missing this morning. I went down the pasture and found the wreckage near the woods. Look at the bite marks on the bones. It might be a pack of wolves."
"There are few prey in the mountains in winter. Maybe the wolves can't find their prey, so hungry they went down the mountain to look for food. Take me to the scene and inform the town and nearby pastures to be careful of wolves."
Lisko made arrangements while walking.
Behind his pasture is a fir forest. This is where the residents of the town cut down the Christmas tree. Every year, people come to plant it, so it has been cut down. The beautiful shape, color and smell of the fir tree are also pleasing and the leaves are also dry after being felled. It is not easy to take off and is a very popular tree species for Christmas trees.
Lisko walked to the edge of the woods, a lot of weeds on the ground were trampled on, the cowboys guarded here in threes and twos, holding semi-automatic rifles in their hands.Although the wolves attacked at night, how to guess the mind of the animals, it is not that there are no cases of being attacked during the day.
Looking at the surrounding land, there are still many footprints. Because the wolf walks very lightly, it is easy to tell that the footprints on the ground are large and slender, confirming that it is a wolf pack.
Lisko arrived at the calf's ticket. The internal organs of the cow had been hollowed out, the wound was torn from the neck, and the cowhide was torn the size of a palm.
There are still gnawing marks on the bones, the surrounding land has been soaked with cattle blood, the soil is stained red, and many flies fly.
Lisko put down his covered mouth and nose and greeted the cowboys to go back.
"Make statistics of all the gun models on the ranch, use alcohol to make a few burning flasks, pierce a few haystacks with hay in the middle of the ranch, pour gasoline, and don't light them."
Li Sike went straight back to the villa. The wolves descending from the mountain only happened a few times in his childhood. At that time, his father took the cowboys to fight back. He was doing logistics nearby and loading the cowboys with bullets.
Now it was his turn to lead, but he didn't panic too much. This is where the United States can't help but shoot.
Lisko opened his gun cabinet, which contained Remington and Revolver. It was not very suitable to choose.
Megan saw Lisko hurriedly out the door, then hurried back, and came out of the house. She had just cleaned the room.
"what happened?"
"The wolves went down the mountain to search for food, closed the doors and windows, and called all the women in the ranch back. Work is stopped today. You can make more sandwiches. There may be many people at night." Lisko hugged her and saw She had a panic expression, comforting.
"Don't be afraid, this is not the first time it has happened, nothing happened, this is a collective hunting carnival in the ranch." Lisko took out Remington, looked at the bullet in the gun box, closed the insurance, and gave the gun to Megan. .
"Take it, I'll go out, fill up the bullets, buy a few rifles by the way, you are ready to have dinner, make more beef, and bring some wine from the cellar up. The rooster has already gone to town. It is estimated that soon Just a lot of people came to stop the wolves together, as soon as possible, it will be dark after a while."
Li Sike took David in a pickup and drove up to town.
When I arrived at the gun shop in the town, it was opened by Leiter’s family. It has been in the town for many years. Lisko remembers that when he was a child, Old Leiter opened it. A few years ago, Old Leiter passed away and Little Leiter returned from the city Take over.
"Lee," Leite had a thick beard, his clothes were tight, and he could see that he was very muscular. With his height of 1.9 meters, he was definitely a fierce and vicious character.
Li Ske shared a school with him when he was young, but his grade was a little higher, and everyone was in the same town, so he was familiar to some extent.
Leiter opened the barbed wire door of the gun shop to prevent those punks from stealing or grabbing guns.
"The wolves have gone down the mountain. Yesterday, two calves died in my ranch. There are a lot of footprints. They have not been beaten for many years. The wolves have developed very strong. Let me add some ammunition." Lisko briefly introduced Happening.
Leiter understood that this kind of thing is not uncommon in these small towns near the mountains. He greeted the clerk, "Give them ammunition, no money today, close the door early, bring the guy, we are going to hunt ."
He has two shop assistants, all of them are fierce and muscular men with various patterns tattooed on their huge muscles.
Lisko looked at the rifles hanging on the wall, and didn't have time to choose them carefully. He was always worried about Megan who was staying at home alone.
"Take this one," Lisko pointed to a silver-black rifle, which was a classic gun type that he often saw when playing games in his previous life, the M4A1 carbine.
The M4A1 carbine is a rifle developed by Colt. It is the first revision of the M4 rifle.This model mainly designs a new flat-top type receiver cover to install a modular aiming system. The shooting mode is semi-automatic, three-shot and fully automatic.M4A1 has a range and lethality worth boasting about, and a high rate of fire.
Lisko took it in his hand, took aim, looked at the gun magazine, the STANAG magazine, which can be loaded with 30 rounds, Lisko placed the order directly.
"Just this one, get me five hundred bullets,"
The clerk quickly packed the things, and Lisko got a gun license early, so buying a gun is really like buying vegetables from a vegetable market.
David has also selected the bullets. There are several bullet boxes behind the pickup, which are filled with yellow, orange and orange bullets. Because the cowboys in the ranch have different guns, different types of bullets are needed.
Liske took out one thousand dollars and pressed it on Leiter’s counter. They didn’t find it after loading the car. Although Leiter said that no money is collected this time, the gun shop in the town does not have a good business and there are no tourist resources, so The shooting range is all by the town’s own people, and the benefits are not as good as those in the big cities. Leiter only relies on the gun shop to eat, so why Lisko is embarrassed not to pay.
Leite packed up, took two shop assistants and drove the car behind Lisko with weapons. The muscle man drove a car that was also very domineering. It was a customized Land Rover. The whole car was taller than Lisko and drove on the road. It looks like a tank.
Because the gun shop is at the northernmost part of the town and Lisko’s ranch is at the southernmost point, so you need to go back through the whole town.
Lisko asked David to drive the car. He opened the roof and pulled out the horn on the pickup truck. Because this pickup truck is a ranch car, he must shout from far away when he directs work in the ranch, so the cowboys Just install this in the car.
"Hey, cough cough, I am Lisko, two calves in my ranch were killed, and the wolves went down the mountain to feed in winter."
From the head of the town to the end of the town, Lisko’s car has turned into a mighty convoy from the back of Leiter’s car. The purpose of Lisko’s notice is to make people guarded. Don’t walk alone when it’s dark. Many When people heard the news, they drove along with their weapons.
