Xu Nuo estimated that stealing peaches had a psychological shadow back then, so when the so-called 'arrangement' to steal watermelons this time, he deliberately changed into long sleeves and long pants, and also put a cyan ghost mask on his face, grinning his teeth, fine during the day, and it was really scary to see it coldly at night.

"My little niece is playing at my house today, and I forgot to take it when I left, it looks very interesting, and it just so happens that we are not acting at night, so I borrowed it temporarily. Let's go...... The goal!

Promise made a gesture to go, and then strode forward, Promise trotted behind him, ran to him and whispered.

"There are dogs in Zhang Laosan's field, and there are two of them! Why don't you go to Li Laosi's field, his ears are deaf, and he can't run with polio. ”

"What's the point of bullying the disabled, just play with the excitement, don't be afraid, it's not just a dog!

"Dogs are afraid of ghosts, too?"

"You should be afraid, right?"

"Huh?"

……

While discussing the topic of whether dogs are afraid of ghosts, the two walked in the direction of Zhang Laosan's watermelon field in the dark.

There are more watermelons in the northern countryside, but although many families grow them, basically each family only grows one or two acres of land.

There are many people who plant and steal, but most of them are children who don't grow melons at home.

The melon farmer is not afraid of you stealing, but he is afraid that you will step on the melon seedlings when you steal.

If the seedlings are stepped on, the watermelons on the seedlings will be destroyed.

Therefore, every year when the watermelon is ripe, almost every melon field has a grass hut to sleep and watch the melon people.

Tong Yao and Xu promised to steal melons out of the intention of playing, of course, this idea is mainly a promise, she is about to bloom in a summer vacation, and she has long wanted to do a big ticket.

Now that Tong Yao is back, she has finally found an accomplice.

The two were walking, and suddenly heard a cough in front of them, Tong Yao made a gesture, promised to know, and immediately hid behind a thick paulownia tree next to him.

"Grandpa the village chief?"

In the dark, the coughing man turned his head and saw that it was Tong Yao, he was stunned, and then smiled.

"Hehe, it's Tong Yao, I heard your mother say that you didn't come back during the summer vacation......"

"Oh, I...... I just came back today, and I have to go back to school the day after tomorrow. ”

"Oh, that...... I went out to the field during the Chinese New Year, and I came back to hear Dezi say that you paid back the money, and I wanted to talk to you, but I went several times and your mother said that you didn't come back, and I thought you were angry with your grandfather. ”

"How come, you are my mother's life-saving benefactor, it is natural to owe money and repay money, I thank you too late, how can you complain......"

"Alas, I blame me for this, and I only figured it out later, Dezi and her daughter-in-law asked me to visit relatives just to go to your house to ask for money. Okay, let's not talk about it, as long as you're not angry with grandpa, by the way, why are you going so late?"

"Uh...... I ......"

The old village chief's words turned too quickly, and Tong Yao, who asked, was caught off guard, and after a pause, she made up a lie.

"Oh, I'll go to Shuli's house and ask for a question. ”

Shuli is Tong Yao's former classmate, her home is in the next village, the two villages are close, and the old village chief naturally recognizes it, oh, and then told her that it was too dark, be careful on the road.

After saying that, the old village chief turned his head behind his back and walked towards the village, apparently preparing to go home.

Tong Yao waited at the intersection to make a promise, but she couldn't see anyone, so she ran to the back of the paulownia tree where she was hiding before and looked at it, but it didn't.

Just as he was wondering, he heard a scream from inside the village.

Then there was the sound of Suo's footsteps.

"Let's go!"

Tong Yao was relieved when she saw that it was a promise, but she was grabbed by her arm and ran away, she asked what was wrong, and after running for hundreds of meters, she gasped and spoke.

"Just now I saw that you had been talking to the old village chief for too long, and I thought it was easy to be found hiding behind a tree, so I ran back for a while, forgetting to take off my mask, and I ended up running into someone, which probably scared the other party enough. ”

"Who did you run into?"

"How do I know, there's not even a light in the dark, but I guess it's this point, maybe it's those who play mahjong. ”

……

Promise didn't care about scaring others at night, and then walked away on his own.

The two of them walked in the dark for more than twenty minutes, and then slowed down.

Promise booed.

"Shhhh ”

"Isn't it just a dog, you go up and scare it to death when the time comes!"

"Ahem, that...... Of course, being able to outwit is not capable of the enemy. Alright, let's go!"

Xu Yu touched his nose in embarrassment, but he touched the mask, and then waved his hand and touched the melon shed first.

These melon sheds were improvised by melon farmers when the watermelons were about to ripen.

It's also very simple, use the stability of the triangle to make a few pieces of waste wood form a triangle at the two ends of the tower, and then fix four pieces of wood in the middle of the two triangles to form a rectangle.

Then find a wooden board to spread on it, and spread a mattress on the wooden board, it is not cold in the summer, so you don't need to make a quilt.

Some are not particular, just lay a bamboo mat on the wooden board, and use a brick as a pillow to sleep for more than a month.

The wooden shed of the triangle is covered with transparent plastic paper on the left and right, which can not only shelter from the wind and rain, but also do not affect the lighting.

There is no need to worry about the front and back, leaving ventilation and convenient for people to come and go.

The general bed of the melon shed is about 1 meter above the ground, which is to prevent snakes, insects, rats and ants from getting into bed.

Tong Yao and Xu Yu bent their waists to Zhang Laosan's watermelon and bowed their heads, and the two looked up at the sky and couldn't help but curse.

There was no moon in the sky tonight, and the entire dome seemed to be covered with a black cloth, Tong Yao gritted her teeth and slowed down.

Zhang Laosan's watermelon field can be reached by crossing a half-meter-deep canal from the side of the road, and the two of them just stopped at the edge of the canal, Tong Yao asked Zheng Jia in a low voice.

"Hey, is Zhang Laosan's melon shed in the east or west?"

"East!"

"Oh......"

After a minute, Promise asked.

"To the east, over there?"

"Look at the Big Dipper, isn't it taught in the book?

"Look at the hair, where did the Big Dipper come from in the dark and rumbling in the sky......"

Tong Yao looked up at the sky, and stopped talking, this promise came up, lowered his voice and spoke.

"Or try your luck, his melon shed is not on the east side but on the west side!

"Good!"

The discussion stopped, Tong Yao was about to leave, but was stopped by the promise.

"By the way, are these two dogs east or west?"

"If I were Zhang Laosan, I would definitely have one bolt in the east and one bolt in the west! Don't talk nonsense, if you want to ink the dog again, you should be hungry!"

"Oooh oh ......"

"Oh, hurry up, the dog is really hungry if you stand stupidly......"
