"Grandpa, what's wrong?" Xiao Mu was a little incoherent.

Zhang Laohan was not in a hurry, took a few deep puffs of smoke, and the whole house was full of smoke.

Squinting, he took the last puff of his cigarette, snuffed it out, and kept knocking his pipe on the ground.

was so calm and calm, which made Xiao Mu feel a little frightened in her heart.

"It's not a good thing to come back so late, isn't it? Besides, look at you covered in dust, let's be honest, is there another fight. ”

Xiao Mu stood facing Zhang Laohan, stunned.

The door was open, the breeze was gently blowing, and there was a chill behind it.

Yes, Xiao Mu was sweating, and even trembling a little.

"Yes, I got into a fight, but I ......"

Before Xiao Mu finished speaking, Zhang Laohan was furious, and picked up a finger-sized pipe like Xiao Mu smashed it.

Fortunately, Xiao Mu reacted quickly enough and avoided Zhang Laohan's pursuit with lightning speed.

With a "bang", Mr. Zhang slammed his pipe against the dilapidated wooden door.

Pointing at Xiao Mu and scolding: "You are a thief, you fight every day, what kind of system do you become, I will educate you well today." ”

Xiao Mu stretched out his right hand, waved his five fingers and said, "Stop, stop, grandpa, don't hit me first, you wait for me to finish talking first." ”

Xiao Mu thought that Zhang Laohan would stop and listen to his explanation, but the angry and stubborn Zhang Laohan did not do what Xiao Mu thought, but beat him indiscriminately, scaring Xiao Mu to flee in all directions.

"I don't want to hear your explanation, it's definitely not a good thing!" Zhang Laohan roared angrily.

Xiao Mu had no choice but to run out of the house, her eyes were filled with tears, and she turned to Zhang Laohan and yelled: "Why don't you listen to my explanation, why do you just think that you don't understand right and wrong?"

"Do you know right from wrong? Did you think about the consequences before you did it?" asked Zhang Laohan.

In a fit of anger, Xiao Mu turned around and left, leaving only one sentence, "If you don't listen to my explanation, forget it, I will only be beaten to death by you here." ”

Xiao Mu plucked up the courage to run to the back mountain, stood on the top of the mountain, and looked at the stretching mountains that were faintly visible in the distance.

I was confused, I didn't know what to do next, what to do.

shouted at the valley: "Ah~, why am I so hard, why am I so twisted and turned." ”

He sat down, picked up a fist-sized rock beside him, and kept throwing it down the hill to vent his anger.

After a long time, Xiao Mu calmed down.

The moonlight shone on the face, the breeze blew through the pine forest and made a swishing sound, and the occasional cricket could be heard.

Behind him were graves, shadows in the moonlight.

Xiao Mu remembered the story told by Zhang Laohan, and then turned his head to look behind him, bursting into a cold sweat and creepy.

I got up and ran in the direction of my home, and only stopped when I got to the side of my house.

He didn't know how to step into the house, and after standing for a long time, he still didn't dare to go home.

Maybe it's the cold wind that has been blowing for a long time, and I feel cold.

So, Xiao Mu whimsically came to the room with straw in the side house.

A wooden house of more than 20 square meters, with no walls on all sides, only a few fragments of wooden planks and bamboo tiles.

It was full of straw, and there was a gap of more than ten centimeters at the bottom, and there were a few chickens and birds in it.

Xiao Mu deliberately took refuge in the straw pile and rested, for fear that the movement would be too big and alarm the chickens and birds and attract Zhang Laohan, so he cautiously touched into the straw.

Finally, it was a little warmer, although it was not as good as in the house, but it was enough to avoid the cold, and Xiao Mu was satisfied.

In this way, Xiao Mu fell asleep peacefully.

But I ever thought that after sleeping for less than two hours, my whole body began to itch, and I don't know why, I was hungry again.

It felt like a long time, curled up in the grass, tossing and turning.

Finally, I couldn't help the hunger, cold and itching, but I didn't know how to enter the house without embarrassment.

Holding his chin in his hands, he squatted in the haystack and thought hard for a long time, but he didn't think of any perfect solution.

The wind was blowing harder, and the haystack was not so warm, and it seemed that I had to go home.

So Xiao Mu slowly climbed out of the haystack, shivering with cold.

When I looked up, the back door on the second floor was just on the roof of the haystack house, so Xiao Mu had the idea of climbing on the roof to enter the second floor.

Although he had an idea, and it was not bad, it was not easy to climb up, he had tried, but several attempts ended in failure.

With an idea, I found a few bamboo poles about six or seven meters long, one end propped on the ground, and the other end was placed on the wall.

After exhausting all his strength, he finally climbed onto the roof and put away the bamboo pole with his last strength.

Because he was exhausted, he had to lie on the roof for a while to recharge his strength.

After resting for a while, he walked cautiously on the roof, for fear of making too much noise, stretched out his hands and gently pushed open the wooden door.

"Squeak~"

The screams from the wooden door made Xiao Mu dare not continue to push, at this time, the door was only open a little, not enough to enter the house.

After waiting for a few minutes, he finally boldly pushed open the door, quietly walked in, and slowly closed the door.

Xiao Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered softly: "It's finally here, God forbid, I wasn't discovered by my grandfather." ”

Hungry, his stomach made a "growling" sound, as if to tell himself that he was hungry and needed something to eat.

The second floor itself is a warehouse, and it's easy to find something to satisfy your hunger.

But now the room is dark, Xiao Mu can't see anything, no different from a blind man.

He crawled on the surface of the floor, moving gently, and this was the only way he could find food.

However, it is inevitable to make a sound, after all, this is a warehouse, and in the case of ambiguity, it is inevitable to bump around.

After searching in the warehouse for most of the day and not finding food, Xiao Mu was a little panicked, this feeling was not really panic because of fear, but panic caused by hunger to a certain extent.

"What should I do? Do I have to starve to death at home like this? Do I want to admit my mistake to my grandfather?" Xiao Mu thought in his heart, because he was already hungry at this time.

"No, no, no, I'm a little man, I can't bow to the evil forces, I have to prove that I'm right with my actions, and I must not go down and admit my mistakes. ”

Xiao Mu fell into the struggle between contradictions and herself.

At this time, Xiao Mu thought that Zhang Laohan had sent peanuts to Mr. Ma before, so he was frantically looking for peanuts, and the movement was a little loud, and there would be a "click" sound from time to time.

You can clearly hear Zhang Laohan's intimidating voice downstairs, maybe Zhang Laohan thought it was a mouse, so he made that strange sound.

The hard work paid off, and Xiao Mu still found the peanut.

But Xiao Mu didn't dare to be unrestrained, so he could only peel it off cautiously and chew it softly.

Xiao Mu felt homeless, he really wanted to have a good meal and then get a good night's sleep.

But he couldn't, he couldn't.

The stomach is not full yet, but Xiao Mu is sleepy, maybe because it is too warm.

Leaning on a bag full of peanuts, he fell asleep peacefully.
