Chapter 142: White Duck
Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, and dogs travel thousands of miles to eat.
Zhuang Yan will not forget this sentence, he can't help but gag when he thinks that his body may eat. You know, although he can't control his body, all the feelings will still be there.
It wasn't obvious just now, and the feeling of the body was still a little unfamiliar, but as time went by, Zhuang Yan was gradually able to feel his body. He could feel himself on all fours, and he could feel his tail wagging constantly.
"Brother dog, brother dog, please be sure to clean yourself and don't eat. ”
Zhuang Yan prayed silently in his heart, although he knew that it was useless at all, but he still couldn't help but meditate.
However, in the end, what Zhuang Yan feared did not happen, not because the dog had lost the good traditional virtue of eating feces, but because Zhuang Yan found that he could gradually control the body.
First with a tail, then a head, and finally a limb, he slowly got used to walking on four legs.
However, because he had just controlled his body and needed to adapt to the time, he walked a little slower, and the girl walking in front of him turned her head and shouted with a frown: "Dog, dog, what are you doing, follow up." ”
Zhuang Yan rolled his eyes, he knew that the dog he possessed didn't even have a name, it was an authentic nameless dog.
The little girl called him, but Zhuang Yan still walked slowly and methodically, and he even ran to the river and looked down at himself at the water.
It is a Chinese pastoral dog with an ordinary face, no characteristics, but the coat color is pure, and the whole body is covered with yellow hair - the kind of earthy yellow hair.
The girl was a little strange about the strange appearance of the big yellow dog, and then she turned around and walked a few steps in front of Zhuang Yan.
Zhuang Yan was looking at himself in the river, and suddenly saw his own shadow in the water, and a girl with a curious face suddenly appeared next to him.
"Wang!"
To be honest, Zhuang Yan was startled, but he actually wanted to say "", but it turned into a sharp "Wang".
Because of the fright, the hair on Zhuang Yan's body even stood up.
The girl looked in the water, then looked back at Zhuang Yan, who had blown up her hair, and wondered, "What are you looking at? ”
Zhuang Yan didn't want to answer this question, and even if he wanted to answer, he couldn't do it, so he could only roll his eyes ruthlessly, wagging his tail and turning away, there was really no way, wagging his tail seemed to be a habit that went deep into the flesh, even if Zhuang Yan felt that such an act was a bit embarrassing, but he still couldn't restrain himself from doing it.
The girl followed behind Zhuang Yan and suddenly smiled: "Dog, dog, how about I go buy buns for you to eat?"
Zhuang Yan's eyes lit up, but then he looked up and down at the girl in front of him with some doubts, with her dress, can she afford to eat steamed buns, and can she feed steamed buns to dogs?
"Let's go, let's go, grandpa has already passed, and the rowing ahead is almost over." The girl urged.
Zhuang Yan noticed that there were indeed a few boats racing in the river not far away, it turned out to be the Dragon Boat Festival in May, and this small city was racing dragon boats.
Zhuang Yan had never seen this thing, so he was also interested, followed the girl, and ran over with his tail wagging his tail.
The river bank was crowded with people, and the girl didn't dare to squeeze into it, but Zhuang Yan's convenience as a dog was reflected, and there was no need to squeeze into it, just through the cracks in people's legs, you could see the boat racing in the river.
After a while, after the number of people gradually decreased, the girl found an old man, who looked a little rickety, but was in good spirits.
"Grandfather!" the girl called, and Zhuang Yan immediately knew the relationship between the two.
The old man also replied: "Cuicui!"
At this time, Zhuang Yan finally knew the girl's name, and for a moment, a few key words flashed in his mind: grandfather, Cuicui, big yellow dog, dragon boat racing......
These keywords reminded Zhuang Yan of a book, that is, Shen Congwen's "Border City".
An elderly old man, doing ferry work, with his granddaughter and a big yellow dog, isn't this the relationship between the characters in "Border City"?
Zhuang Yan cast his eyes into the river, presumably now he was racing a boat in it.
After watching the dragon boat for a while, just when Zhuang Yan was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard the voice of the old man next to him.
"It's still early, and by the time it's over, it's going to be at least three moments. The friend by the stream should also come to see the excitement of the young people, go back, and change his status in time. ”
Zhuang Yan's eyes widened, because he clearly didn't see the old man's mouth move, but he could hear him speak. Zhuang Yan was taken aback, he seemed to be able to hear what the old man was thinking.
Then the old man really spoke, and said to Cuicui, "There are too many people, stand here and watch, don't move, I have something to do elsewhere, no matter what, I have to come back to accompany you home." ”
At this time, Cuicui was looking at the two racing boats in a daze, and she agreed to what her grandfather said without thinking.
The old man glanced at Zhuang Yan on Cuicui's side, nodded and left.
Zhuang Yan remembered this paragraph, this old man should have gone to find an old friend who ferried for him, and he should have wanted to return the other party and let the other party join in the fun. Zhuang Yan also remembered that it seemed that the man didn't like to watch the dragon boat, so he drank wine by the stream with the old man, and he got drunk without wanting to chat, so he didn't come to Cuicui in time.
Looking up at Cuicui, who was obsessed with dragon boat racing, Zhuang Yan thought to himself that this girl was really big-hearted, and she didn't worry about her grandfather leaving.
It was only after a while that Cuicui remembered that her grandfather was not around, but she still thought that "grandfather will always find him soon." ”
This is Cuicui's heartfelt words, but Zhuang Yan can hear it.
After that, when her grandfather still didn't come, Cuicui suddenly began to worry, and even when she saw that the dusk had decorated the river with a layer of mist, she thought, "What if grandpa died?"
But then she explained to herself the error of this idea, thinking that if her grandfather did not come, he must have gone into the city or some acquaintance, and was dragged to drink, so he could not come for a while.
Cuicui still doesn't leave the docks, always believing that her grandfather will come to him.
But Zhuang Yan already knew the direction of the story, so he secretly thought in his heart: This stupid girl didn't know that her grandfather had gone home.
However, Zhuang Yan also knew that after a while, the male protagonist would appear, so he didn't make a noise and waited next to Cuicui.
It's just that to be honest, he is really a little hungry, and Cuicui's previous promise to his buns, of course, has not been fulfilled.
Later, Cuicui heard the sailors talking again, and her heart began to think crankily. Then Cuicui saw the white duck in Tan Zhong slowly swimming towards her, and Cuicui thought, "Come here again, I'll catch you." ”
Zhuang Yan heard her thoughts, and smiled with his teeth crooked, this white duck is your sweetheart under it!
