Winter is coming.

Although the herds no longer make a transfer now and have prepared forage, if the snow layer is not thick, they will drive cattle, sheep and horses nearby to eat dead grass under the snow layer. After eating dead grass, they will pour it into the activities.

It's the main one.

Ah Hai, a ten-year-old girl, got up early in the morning.

The shabby tent at this time the Truqin Khanate was a little eye-catching, but for Ah Hai, this is her home.

The only home.

The sky is gloomy and the north wind is howling.

Another heavy snow seemed to be brewing intensified, and Ah Hai not only frowned.

Ahai is a noble name in the eyes of the Mongolians, but there is no taboo. It can be used from great nobles to poor herders.

Wrapped in a thick sheepskin robe she sewned herself, she staggered towards the fence where animals were kept.

The cattle circle is located between two small hills, and the area within a radius of three miles is her pasture. Looking around, the enemy is vast.

The sky is gloomy, and Ah Hai's mood is not much better.

Last night, she heard the howling of wolves, but she was only ten years old and she was still okay to shed cattle and sheep, but she couldn't get up in the middle of the night to deal with the wolves.

Before she could get there, the scene above the white snow layer covered with white flowers made her speed.

Gradually, the bloodstains near the livestock circle confirmed her ominous premonition.

At the end of the bloodstain, a big hole appeared in the already broken fence!

She crawled into the hole with great anxiety, and the scene in front of her made her feel a little dizzy.

Almost all the sheep were bitten to death!

She raised more than fifty sheep in total. The reason why she got up so early was because three ewes were going to give birth in the past two days. In such a cold winter, if the owner had not served her, the lamb would have been born

Frozen to death.

The owner needed to prepare fine and soft hay for them and transfer it to a small circle with a wooden shed, but Ah Hai saw only a lamb with only one lamb head left, and his mother was lying beside him, and only

Half of the body was removed, and the umbilical cord at the tail was still connected to the body!

When I looked again, about half of the sheep were eaten and left with broken limbs and half were bitten to death.

The big animals she raised - five horses, two camels and three cows were safe and sound. However, when the wolves broke in, they could protect themselves from safety, but obviously they would not take the initiative to rescue the flock.

/p>

The corpse of a sheepdog she had raised for several years appeared in the flock. The wolf pack did not attack it, but just bit it to death.

The one who can harm all fifty sheep must be a big wolf pack.

Where Ah Hai is, there are streams and hills, which are exactly where they like.

Ah Hai sat blankly on the ground.

There was silence around, except for the sound of the wind, there were only the breathing of the remaining animals.

Finally she lay down and fell asleep in this bloody circle of livestock. Extreme tension, fatigue and despair will make people temporarily unconscious.

I don't know how long it took, but a warm sniff made her wake up.

Although she fell asleep, her face was covered with tears, but now the tears that were hidden in the cracks are gone. Her horse "flower" is constantly licking her.

The horse's rough tongue made her feel a little painful, but she still hugged the flower tightly.

After a while, she opened the circle door and asked all the big animals to go out to eat grass by themselves. She began to clean up the remains of the wolves.

Riding on Xiaohua back to the tent, Xiaohua finally felt a warm feeling.

Smoke curling up from the top of the tent.

After hearing the sound of horse hooves, the tent door opened and a trembling old lady came out. She was Xiaohua's only relative, her biological grandmother.

When Ah Hai was three years old, his parents, brothers and younger brothers all died of a sudden plague, and then she depended on her grandmother for life.

Grandma, she is almost eighty years old this year, and there are only a handful of people who can live to this age on the grassland, but if it weren't for grandma, Ah Hai wouldn't know if she could survive until now.

Grandma is her paradise.

She didn't dare to tell grandma about the bad news, just nodded, then took out a hoe from it and left.

Grandma also shed tears. As an old herder, she naturally knew what was behind Ah Hai's move, but in her heart, the wolf pack would always leave some for them.

After returning to the livestock circle, Ah Hai was about to dig a hole not far away.

She was only ten years old and could not dig a big hole in the Tuerhu prairie in winter. She could only dig a shallow hole, but in the end she couldn't dig it anymore, so she simply put the broken limbs and body outside.

/p>

Sky burial is a way that Turkut herders also have.

The eagle circling in the sky had been impatient for this scene, and they were not afraid of Ah Hai. In the past hundred years, the actions of the herdsmen had long changed their genes and rushed down one by one.
p>

Soon, a large number of eagles gathered there.

Watching the eagles scramble to peck at the flock of sheep that was still alive a day ago, Ah Hai thought: "What if one day I will become the object of their pecking?"

After a while, she struggled to stand up, and used a straw bag to carry the edible sheep onto the horse's back, and then transported them to the tent one by one.

Grandma has insight into everything.

"Leave two, and make the rest into air-dried meat"

Making air-dried meat is not easy. Fortunately, it is the middle of winter. Pile the mutton outside, wrap it with a fence, and cover it with a shed, so you can make it slowly.

But the smell of mutton can be caught by wolves a few miles away. They are a group of smart beasts. Since they dare to attack Ahai's flock, they probably have been investigating for a long time. They know that this family and the sheepdog are completely unfair.

They pose a threat.

If it is a normal family, even if there is only one fifteen-year-old brother in the family like Norb before, they will not dare.

Boys on the grassland, if they are over ten years old, they are not allowed to deal with two or three wild wolves.

But obviously not here, the wolf pack obviously discovered this.

After eating, Ah Haicao started making air-dried meat with her grandma.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

When the sun was falling, she quickly rode on the little flower and returned to the hill, checked around more than a dozen large animals, and her heart tightened again!

A camel is gone!

The livestock circle is not far from the tent. If a pack of wolves comes, the horses and cattle will warn you, but she doesn't hear any movement.

Fortunately, there are still footprints.

The footprints of the male camel stretched out into the distance, and only small black dots remained at the farthest point.

He drove the remaining animals into the fence, closed the door carefully, rode on the little flower and chased after them along the footprints.

It was an elderly male camel. At this age, it would not run around, and the other female camel lived with it for more than ten years and had long been unable to give birth.

So, there is only one possibility.

The young female camel of a nearby herder came over and attracted it.

Ten years old, only ten years old, but she has become the pillar of the family since she was six years old and has also gained insight into everything on the grassland.

Originally, she wanted to go back and tell her grandmother, but she thought the male camel had not gone very far and could be recovered soon.

The snow on the grassland is very thin, the water puddles and streams are frozen firmly, and there is no more danger except for the little flower falling.

This time, Ahai also brought the scimitars and bows left by Abu (father). She had not learned these things from anyone, but she used genes to find them by herself in the cruel grassland life.

Her skills are naturally not as good as Norbu's younger brother who died in a wolf's belly, but she is also a skilled saber.

"Dadadada"

As Ah Hai gradually moved away, she gradually turned into a black spot on the grassland.

My husband's footprints disappeared ten miles away from Ahai's home, where there were also some low hills.

After riding a horse between the hills for a few times, she finally found her husband's camel!

As she expected, her husband camel was indeed lying in the valley with a young female camel.

This hill is in the area of ​​the nearby herds' pastures. Ahai also knows this family. It has a large population and raises more than a dozen camels, but it is also taken care of by children. If you don't pay attention, you won't be able to find it.

At this time, the sky was completely dimming. If she had to send the female camel back to the herdsman's house first, she would have to walk five or six miles more. After thinking about it, she decided to take it back together and wait until the next day to give it to them.

Send it back.

When the husband came, he did not stubbornly prepare to continue to stay here with the young female camel, but stood up. As soon as it stood up, the female camel also stood up.

/p>

Although Ah Hai's husband Camel is old, he is tall and has golden hair, otherwise he would not have attracted this young female camel to come for a tryst.

Snowy night.
