Chapter 87 The Jumping Lamb Became Obedient (Part 2)
The entire venue was like a display of the little bears' hunting skills.
The dozen or so jumping lambs were repeatedly ravaged by the little bear using various hunting skills. The bear even bit them when it got angry. Without using any attribute energy, not a single jumping lamb escaped unscathed.
After cleaning up everything, I felt very relieved.
Looking at the white balls lying all over the ground, the little bear calmed down, his skills were exercised, his energy was consumed, and he happily followed his mother to eat honey and fruit salad.
The little bouncing lambs, half frightened and half exhausted, lay motionless on the ground, one after another, twitching now and then, creating the scene of a tragic crime.
Josh wasn't buying it.
The little bear was very good at reading people's expressions. He never really bit anyone. He basically just pounced on one and then replaced it with another. At most, he lost a few tufts of fur, but he wasn't hurt at all.
However, this time, Josh wants to see if these jumping lambs dare to run around and act naughty every day.
Out of the corner of his eye he saw Big Head quietly running over to see what was going on. Josh saw its legs tremble and it did splits.
"Mee!" Big Head let out a shrill scream. He was dying!
Its cry did not scare Josh and the others, but instead frightened the little creatures pretending to be dead on the ground so much that they trembled all over and jumped up on the spot.
When Big Head found out that these naughty little lambs were pretending, he jumped twice with joy, then gave them a kick. They deserved it!
After being severely punished by the little bear, the lambs trembled on the way back to the sheepfold, fearing that a bear would come out and bite them.
The other lambs who were watching were even more frightened and ran away when they saw the bear. They no longer had the arrogance and fearlessness they had before.
The farm bully changed his appearance and became a sheep again.
However, Josh discovered in the past few days that the little bear seemed to have found new hobbies. It was keen on attacking every lamb that failed to escape anytime and anywhere, which effectively trained its hunting skills and the lambs' ability to escape.
The contract was also signed successfully.
Mr. Stowe's reply was very interesting. He thanked Josh for correcting the omissions in the contract and quickly sent the revised new contract, seeming quite impatient.
Josh was a little puzzled at first, but after looking at the contract for a while, he suddenly found it funny. Could it be that he thought of himself as a member of the Federation?
Judging from the wording style and strictness of the contract after it was revised, it can indeed be seen that it was produced by official personnel. However, once the tiger skin is torn off, don’t you see that the matter was handled much faster?
Josh didn't explain either.
Because the little bears are putting too much pressure on them, the lambs rarely go to the Weiguang Forest recently. They are afraid of encountering little bears or other predators. They are much more vigilant than before.
All day long he just dared to walk around the Glimmering Lake, nibbling on the tender grass and green leaves, and incidentally helped Josh a lot.
Mr. Stowe's fisherman arrived at the farm the day after the contract was signed.
The lakeside was crowded with jumping lambs who came to watch the fun. After being forced to calm down recently, they often took their anger out on flowers, plants and trees for no reason. They looked as if their brains had been eaten by little bears, and they became a little stupid and domineering.
Josh casually said that there were strict limits on the catch, so these idle lambs gave themselves a new task, which was to supervise these fishermen and properly catch the lake fish.
Once they find out that you have secretly caught too much fish, or that the nets are too dense, they will find something to say. They will torture the fishermen with bleating sounds and take out all their anger on them.
Sometimes Josh felt sorry for those uncles. Whenever he caught a few more fish to take home for a snack, he would be surrounded by these mean little creatures, which made Josh feel very embarrassed. He told the uncles not to be polite and it was okay to just catch a few fish and take them home.
Faced with Josh's protection, the lambs became selfless. They bleated and taught Josh that even as a farmer he could not break the rules, and punished Josh by being bitten by the bear.
Their catchphrase recently is to punish you by letting a bear bite you.
In response, Qiao Xi smiled slightly, put his hand into the bear's mouth, raised his eyebrows at the lamb in the distance, and said, "See, the bear won't bite me."
The lambs were so angry that they viciously ate all the grass where the little bear often slept, and they refused to listen to anyone's advice.
However, no matter how cowardly this form of revenge could be, Josh didn't care.
However, with the supervision of the lambs, Josh did save a lot of worries. Before, considering that the farm could not catch fish for sale on its own, he could only ask Mr. Stowe to arrange someone to come. If it weren't for the supervision of the lambs, who knows how many more troubles would have arisen.
As the days passed, Qiao Xi was busy every day and lived a fulfilling life.
In the blink of an eye, it is golden autumn. The low altitude and lush forests are full of vitality. However, it is different on the other side of the snow-capped mountains. The trees on the hillside are golden, and when the sun shines on them, it looks like a golden mountain.
It’s harvest season for bitter chestnut beans. Qiao Xi has just picked a small basket and is ready to try making some canned chestnut beans himself.
After taking out the bundles of bitter chestnut beans and stacking them on the ground, Josh began to pick the beans from the stalks one by one.
Be gentle and rub the bitter chestnut beans lightly. The round beans will roll out of the pods with a unique bean smell and bitterness.
Josh put all the beans in a small basin and soaked them first.
This is completely different from the broad beans that are more than half a meter long.
The broadsword beans take a very long time to grow, and are planted much earlier than the bitter chestnut beans. But a few days ago, Josh chopped a bean and brought it back. The bean inside was still very small and tender. A light bite would release crispy and sweet juice, which did not taste like beans at all.
However, the broadsword lentil was not originally meant to be eaten. Its main function is to be used as a weapon, otherwise how would it get the name of broadsword?
When the broad beans are fully mature, their pods will become woody and harder than hardwood, with smooth lines. With just a little processing, they can be made into simple scimitars, which are as lethal as metal scimitars.
However, Josh's original purpose of planting these broad beans was not very pure. First, he wanted the legumes to enrich the soil fertility, and second, he wanted to attract a few rodent monsters. As for eating and selling them, they were incidental, and he would make money either way.
It's still tender now, perfect for cutting into shreds and eating with rolls.
Josh tried it and found that the outer skin of the broad beans blanched in boiling water can be easily torn off, and the inner core together with the small beans can be cut into shreds, stir-fried and seasoned to make fragrant shredded lentil wraps.
When they grow old, we cut them all down and sell them together. We don’t have to worry about the young or the old.
As I was thinking about this and moving my hands, I unknowingly filled a basin with bitter chestnut beans.
However, it cannot be canned directly now. The bitterness must be removed. There are many ways to remove the bitterness of chestnut beans. The simplest way is to soak them for a long time after boiling.
