Zhang Xing was woken up this night, and the stone stretched out a finger to her mouth to signal her not to make a sound, and then pushed Zhang Tao awake, beckoned to the two sisters, and motioned to go out with him. Zhang Xing looked back, the moon shone in from the bridge hole, and an arc of light and shadow fell, and his father Zhang Shuisheng and the rest of the Li family were sleeping soundly.

"Come on. The stone whispered again. Zhang Xing led her sister to follow, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce, the night was deep, and the surroundings were quiet. Zhang Tao ran over and asked in a low voice, "Brother Shi, what are you going to do?" Shi looked left and right, and whispered, "Go, I'll take you to find something delicious." ”

The stone led Zhang Tao and ran, Zhang Xing had to follow, and after passing through a few fields, a few people arrived at the village where they begged for food last evening. At that time, in the middle of the night, except for the crowing of chickens one after another, there was no other sound in the village. Shi Zhan froze, stretched out his hand to Zhang Xing, and said, "Take out the bun you are carrying." ”

Zhang Xing was surprised in her heart, the three steamed buns she got yesterday evening, and the three of them shared one by one. Thinking that this thing is easier to store than food, and my father has to carry the burden and carry his sister, I am afraid that it will be more and more difficult in the future, so keep it for him to increase his strength. I thought that no one knew what I was doing, but who knew that this kid saw it in his eyes.

Now, he reached out to ask for it. She took it out and tore it in half for him, and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"You'll know in a moment. "You two are waiting for me here, and I'll be back in a moment." With that, he ran away with a puff of smoke. The bright moon was shining, Zhang Xing was holding her sister and standing on the green and white dirt road, when the grass grew and the warbler flew, the weeds on both sides of the road were rampant, and unknown insects were chirping inside.

She looked back and forth, and this should be a common contact in this village. It must not be a good thing for that kid to come out in the middle of the night, and it is always bad if they are seen here. The grass didn't dare to go, she was afraid of snakes, so she led Zhang Tao to a house to squat under the fence and wait for the stones.

Zhang Tao was still young, and when she came out in the dead of night, she felt fresh, and she didn't feel sleepy at all, so she asked Zhang Xing some words. Only Zhang Xing was anxious in her heart, and she regretted that she shouldn't have listened to the stone.

The sisters waited for a while, and then they heard the sound of tapping and tapping. Zhang Xing looked at it and saw that it was the stone that had returned. Shi saw Zhang Xing and Zhang Tao standing under the fence wall, and whispered as he walked: "Okay, okay, you two just hide there, don't come out, don't squeak." ”

Zhang Tao nodded like pounding garlic, and pulled her sister to continue squatting. Out of nowhere, the stone moved a stone to enlarge it under the tree, tore the steamed bun given by Zhang Xing in half, half of it was stuffed into a fist stone gap, and knotted a rope sleeve and placed it around the gap. The other half was torn into many small pieces, and every few steps he threw a piece, until he reached the foot of a courtyard wall, and somehow suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Zhang Xingzheng was guessing where the stone was, but saw the stone come out of the grass under the courtyard wall again, and quickly ran to this side, grabbed the head of the rope noose, and slipped up the tree. It wasn't until a dog appeared under the courtyard wall that Zhang Xing suddenly understood what this kid was going to do. That kid wants to eat dog meat.

Are dogs so easy to catch?

Zhang Xing's intestines were destroyed at this time, and a few of them were half-grown teenagers who could blow into the sky to provoke this beast? Farm dogs are not fun, they are all watchdogs, and even adults can't help them, let alone them. Besides, the dog didn't just eat when it had a mouth, but if it barked and woke up the people of the village, would it be possible to have their good fruit to eat?

But now it was useless to regret it, and the dog had already walked along the bait thrown by the stone. Zhang Xing grabbed Zhang Tao's hand tightly, ready to run away as soon as she saw that something was wrong. She can't solve this matter, so it's important to move the adults back first.

In these days, food is so expensive that people can't eat enough, let alone animals. The steamed bun was just pasta, and it may not be uncommon in peaceful days, but now the years are a good thing, and the dog took a few steps to eat it, and there was not even any slag left, and soon he came to the bottom of the tree, and poked his head into the crack in the stone to lick half of the steamed bun.

It was too late, and then it was too late, and the noose on the stone suddenly strangled the dog's neck, and a black shadow jumped down from the tree and rode right on the dog. The dog snorted, couldn't turn over, only struggled wildly, and in a blink of an eye, the man and the dog twisted into a ball. Zhang Xing was going to run away, but the ghost sent a god to touch a stone in his hand, and rushed out of the hall at once.

But he saw the stone riding on the dog, and pressed the dog's mouth to the ground, and he himself bit the rope in his mouth, and pulled his body back, and his eyes were round, and his face changed.

Zhang Xing was stunned, and it wasn't until Zhang Tao ran over to help the stone pull the rope that she reacted, squatted down, and slammed it down on the dog's head.

The dog, who was already dying of the stone, was struck by the slamming of the stone, and after a muffled bark, straightened his limbs. The stone was still not at ease, so he strangled it vigorously for a while, and wrapped the dog's mouth and limbs tightly with a rope, and then spread it on the ground and panted. Zhang Xing also wiped a handful of cold sweat on her head.

Shi turned his head and smiled at Zhang Xing, and said, "You are not small, not bad." Zhang Xing said sincerely: "Where? "She has lived for two lifetimes, and it is the first time she has seen someone catch a dog so violently, and she can't accept it.

The stone patted the ash on the buttocks and stood up, put the dog in the grass and hid it, and beckoned, "Let's go." ”

"What else are you going to do?" Zhang Xing asked.

"Picking elm money. The stone pointed to the courtyard wall where the dog had just come out, and said, "There is an elm tree planted in the yard, have you eaten the elm rice?" Let's go, let's pick elm money. ”

It turns out that catching dogs is just incidental, and stealing elm money is the main thing. Zhang Xing couldn't cry or laugh, thinking to herself, this family is really unlucky, and they are worried about this little thief.

Zhang Tao led the corner of the stone's clothes and happily followed, but Zhang Xing had to follow along.

This family should have some family background, this village is mostly fenced courtyard walls, and this house is made of green bricks. The stone peeled open the weeds under the courtyard wall, revealing a dog hole that was knee-high for a child, and pulled Zhang Tao and said, "Get in, get in." Zhang Xing hurriedly said, "I'll come first." "Who knows what's inside the wall of the Lu Dao Courtyard? Zhang Tao is only seven years old, and he hasn't been caught if something happens?

Zhang Xing got into it from the dog hole, there were three large tile houses lined up in the yard, the doors and windows were closed, and there was no light at all, and the pigsty was on the right against the courtyard wall, and now it was empty inside, only some dry firewood was piled up, and a big tree was planted on the left, with lush branches and leaves, and the breeze passed, and there was a loud noise.

Zhang Tao's stones also drilled over one after another. The stone whispered Zhang Xing: "Will you climb a tree?" Zhang Xing hurriedly shook her head, the last time she went up a tree in the water was because of buoyancy, but now she can't.

"Then you will wait below. As he spoke, he spat and touched the palm of his hand, using his hands and feet together, and climbed up in a few clicks.

The foliage above his head blocked the moonlight, and when he looked up from under the trees, only a few sparse shadows danced. Zhang Xing only knew that the stone was sitting on a tree branch, but he didn't know what he was doing.

Zhang Xing and Zhang Tao both saw that their necks hurt, and the stone just got down the tree, made a pocket in front of the shirt, and pocketed a bag full of elm money, and urged Zhang Xing to take it in a low voice. Zhang Xing hurriedly took off his coat and spread it on the ground, letting the stone pour the elm money on it.

The stone went up the tree again, and plucked it down. Zhang Xing wrapped up his clothes, and the three of them quietly got out of the dog hole, took the dog, stepped on the clear moonlight, and returned to the bridge hole.
