In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 1223: The Farm of Justice (5)
"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"
The pens of the Kent Farm are modern integrated pens, in which the cows and pigs are in the same space. Because the number of cows is relatively small, there are only five calves, and the number of pigs is relatively large. To occupy more than half of the space, the positions of these two shared houses are just enough.
Cows and pigs are not the main source of output of the Kent farm. The most important thing in the whole farm is the sheep. There are more than 200 sheep in the Kent farm, half of which are wool-producing sheep and the other half are meat sheep. For two sheepfolds.
Originally, in the last mating season, more than a hundred ewes were pregnant, but most of the lambs have been sold.
The breed selected by the Kent family is very good, so the cubs are very popular. This is the main source of income for the farm in terms of animal husbandry, so Jonathan only left two lambs, and they are still staying with their mother .
Bruce lay on the outside of the stable and looked in. The two cubs were already asleep. The lamb was not just born, but had grown up a lot, so it was fluffy. Looking very cute, Clark went into the pen, picked one out, and handed it to Bruce.
Bruce didn't know how to hold the lamb, but he knew how to hold Aisha, so he grabbed the lamb by the waist and held it in his arms. The warmth of the baby's life made his body temperature rise , more sleepy.
Afterwards, they saw the calf in the cow pen again. The calf became much more lively. It kept turning around in the pen, stepping on the ground with its four hooves in turn.
Seeing Clark approaching, the calf instinctively backed away, seeming to be a little scared, Clark showed an embarrassed look, and said: "You may not believe it, but the animals are a little afraid of me. I am like a shepherd. Dogs are more useful."
A scene of a running Clark driving the sheep back to the sheepfold appeared in Bruce's mind, and he almost didn't hold back the expression on his face.
Bruce stretched out his hand and touched the wet nose of the calf through the fence. The coldness made him sober, so he turned to Clark and asked, "Didn't you say you want to do farm work? Where is the fodder?"
Clark interrupted him with a glance and said, "You don't really want to do it, do you? Your injury hasn't healed yet. You can go to the haystack over there and sleep for a while. When you wake up, the work is done."
"I didn't come out to sleep." Bruce shook his head, rejected him, and started to walk to the other side of the pen with the rake in his hand. Clark asked him as he closed the door of the cowshed, "Are you going Where?"
"Judging from the structure of the building, the most marginal building we just passed by should be a warehouse. I'm going to work." Bruce replied without turning his head.
Clark seemed a little helpless, he charged up and flew into the air, then hugged Bruce's waist, and flew him up.
Clark flew Bruce to the tall haystack next to him, put him there, and said: "I won't let you mess around, this is not only for your body, but also for us For the sake of the fodder collected so hard, you have to watch me do it before you can do it yourself."
Bruce showed a disapproving expression, sitting cross-legged on the tallest haystack, staring at Clark in mid-air with his arms folded.
"This is a special place to prevent Batcat from fighting crime while I'm working. It can't get down, let alone you."
After speaking, Clark shrugged his shoulders, picked up the rake beside Bruce, and went to prepare forage.
Bruce looked at the surrounding environment, and he found that what Clark said was right, the place is very high, and there is no platform that can be lowered slowly. Don't talk about people.
Bruce originally planned to call Clark, but he found that Clark was very busy, pushing the haystack compressed into a roll in and pushing it out again, loading hay on the cart with pitchforks and rakes, and then Get the forage down.
In just a few minutes, Clark went back and forth more than a dozen times, repeating and regular actions, always so hypnotic, after Bruce watched for a few minutes, he felt that his eyelids could no longer be opened.
This place is actually not a comfortable sleeping environment. The haystacks are too hard, and there is a strange smell, mixed with the smell of livestock manure and the smell of decaying wood on the roof of the barn, which makes people lose their sense of smell for a moment. up.
Bruce didn't know where his sense of security came from. He slept in a place that he would definitely judge as a dangerous environment at high altitudes before.
Maybe Clark's overpowering strength will give any weak human extra confidence, and Bruce doesn't even know when he fell asleep.
When he woke up again, Bruce was facing the glare of the sun. The bright light of the morning shone on his quilt through the loose curtains, making the thread very hot.
Bruce wrinkled his eyes, and before his brain was fully turned on, Jonathan had already walked up to the attic where Bruce rested with a cup of hot milk. The middle-aged father wearing glasses put the milk on Bruce's bedside table and told him Say:
"Good morning, did you sleep well last night? When Clark brought you back, we thought something happened to you, but luckily you just fell asleep."
Bruce felt a little embarrassed, maybe because two strong men were squeezed into the narrow attic space, even if Jonathan didn't have any aggressive gestures, it made Bruce feel unsafe.
As soon as he had this idea, Jonathan immediately took two steps back and retreated to the stairs in the attic, only showing his head, and said to Bruce with a smile: "You can sleep for a while, breakfast will be ready soon , I will ask Clark to call you later."
After Jonathan left, Bruce didn't feel sleepy any more. He turned his head and glanced at the clock hanging above his head. Said he slept for close to 12 hours.
Bruce got up from the bed in a hurry. He found that he was wearing the pajamas he brought in the suitcase, but his original clothes were gone. On the bedside was a set of Clark's clothes, which were made of soft materials. The surface is smooth, and it is still a little hot when you hold it in your hand. It looks like it has just been ironed.
Clark is only a little taller than Bruce, but he is much stronger than him. Bruce is already very strong among human males, but Clark is not as strong as a human.
Bruce changed his clothes without thinking too much. As soon as he walked down the stairs, Martha let out an exclamation.
"God, look at him! What a handsome guy! I knew you would fit in this baseball shirt, I bought Clarke when he was in college, and it's not out of date now !”
Bruce turned his head aside instinctively, he really wasn't very comfortable with Martha's enthusiasm, but it was quick. He realized how enthusiastic Martha can be, or it is not enthusiasm, but the lady's instinct.
Martha walked up to Bruce quickly, and walked around behind him, stretched out her hand to adjust his collar, and patted the back of Bruce's head with her hand, signaling him to lower his head so that she could choose the collar properly Location.
But as soon as he lowered his head, the bandage wrapped around his neck became more obvious. Bruce waited for a long time but didn't find that the position of his collar had changed. When he turned around, he found that Martha was covering her mouth and weeping.
"Oh, it's okay, leave me alone." Martha sniffled and said, "Clark was going to change your pajamas last night, and he wanted me to prepare a new set of clothes, so I found his clothes and sent them to you." In the attic."
"Clark just took off your shirt, I saw the terrible wounds on your body, I was so scared that I almost fell down the stairs in the attic... No matter who it is, it is really too bad Terrible."
Martha went up to Bruce again to straighten his collar, and then said: "I often tell the children in the small town that no matter how hard they fight outside, they should think about the things in them before they fight with others." Wounds. How many tears will their parents shed."
"If the goal of a person's hard work is not to make himself and his family happy, but to make himself miserable and make his family worry, then what is the meaning of struggle?"
Bruce looked at her a little silently. He rarely saw so many emotions piled up on a person's face. It is rare to see an emotion on the face.
But what surprised Bruce even more was that Martha didn't stay in this sad mood for too long. In less than ten seconds, she wiped her tears with the back of her hand, smiled, and said: " You must not let Clark know that I cried again, I cried once last night, and both of them were very uncomfortable."
Martha wiped her tear-stained hands on her apron, then turned and went to the kitchen, turning her head to Bruce as she walked, and said, "You must be hungry very quickly with such a serious injury, and breakfast will be ready soon , add two more dishes this morning, if you can’t finish it, you can eat it at noon..."
Bruce stood there and didn't know what to think, but after a while, he heard a faint voice coming from the back of the stairs, it seemed that Clark was on the phone.
"Oh, is it? That's really troublesome. You urbanites must not understand the harvest season of agricultural products. How about this, or I'll go back to the metropolis..."
"However, the troublesome thing is that I have a good friend who is recovering at my home. He is injured, or seriously injured, and needs to be taken care of. If I am not by his side, he will be very sad... ..."
"Of course, I am also happy to do this~IndoMTL.com~In fact, this is the best solution, but are you sure that curator can stand the environment of the farm?"
"Oh, Louise, I'm not saying that you city people are delicate, it's just that these artistic people are inevitably a bit...isn't it? So amazing? If that's the case, then of course I welcome it, ok ok , I will pick her up..."
After putting down the phone, Clark came out, saw Bruce and said, "The farm has a new guest."
"My colleague Louise at the Metropolitan newspaper just called me and said that she has a friend who used to work at the Metropolitan Museum and is now taking over the planning of the exhibition at the Met's largest produce fair, Louise. Silk is responsible for reporting on this agricultural product expo."
"However, from the curatorial team to the newspaper office, no one knows about agricultural products, and they don't know much about the agricultural development in the metropolitan area. They know that I am from a farming family, and hope to get some help from me."
"If you are not here, I can fly directly back to the metropolis, but they heard that a friend of mine is also here, so they plan to come to the farm directly to visit and gain some practical experience, because Kansas It is also a benchmark area for agricultural products expo.”
Bruce nodded, indicating that he understood, but Clark scratched his head and said, "I don't know what kind of person Louis' curator friend is, but I heard that he is engaged in art. I'm not very good at dealing with this kind of people, they will arrive in the afternoon, can you accompany me to pick them up?"
Bruce nodded again, and Clark handed over a note with a series of contact numbers and a name, curator of the Metropolitan Museum - "Diana Prince" .
