23. Deterrence
Sure enough, as Tang Tang expected, this kind of thing has always been indispensable for the little milk cat. When she found it, this guy was greeting her excitedly, "Tang Tang, come on, I left you a lot of delicious food!" ”
And the old dog not only didn't beat it, but also dragged the sick body and helped it and Erhei guard the door to let it go. She couldn't help but sigh, she had never seen a parent who spoiled her child so much.
However, they ate heartily, but Cao Liqiang's side was unrelenting, and he had to find out this thief who committed trouble. What's more, Wang Min fanned the flames on the side, telling about the experience of losing things a few times before, and immediately he found the handle to punish Niujiatun, and began to rectify this atmosphere with thunderous anger.
Naturally, he didn't use the dirty method of finding people with dogs, but only trusted his own eyes. So the next day, he set up another game.
This time, he ajar the painted door, and an oil lamp in the room shone brightly, illuminating a table of delicacies clearly, and through the crack in the door, he could see the delicious luster of the fleshy bones, which made people salivate.
But there was no one in the room at this time. Cao Liqiang and a few people stood outside the door, waiting for yesterday's thief to throw himself into the net.
When Tang Tang heard about this letter, he hurriedly ran to the horse shed to find the little milk cat, but he didn't expect the baby to be there. Immediately, her heart was so anxious that she was afraid that she would be caught by Cao Liqiang and punished well.
She couldn't help but ask the tall horse behind the trough, "Where is Maomao?" ”
A dark horse snorted loudly, "Chirp, who do I ask if you ask me?" ”
"Restored, eighty percent of them went out to cause trouble, hahaha!" The horses on the other side also craned their necks to make fun.
"What are you looking for it for?" The horse looked at her and laughed, "Little girl, come and play with us!" Look at our body, with long legs and a thin waist, and four hooves, we are much more handsome than it! ”
Tang Tang who was molested: "......"
She weakly held her forehead and refused: "Next time, I have something urgent." ”
"That's an appointment, I remember!" Dark Horse said positively.
Tang Tang hurriedly closed the door and walked out, ran to the old base under the big locust tree, and just happened to see the little milk cat coming out of the bushes with the leaves on its head. It innocently surprised: "Tang Tang! ”
It was only then that the heart she had been carrying was relaxed. "Don't go to Cao Liqiang's place to scavenge for food today, he has set a trap waiting to catch you."
When the little milk cat heard this, her eyes suddenly widened round and big, and she screamed in surprise, "But Erhei is gone!" ”
Tang Tang was also surprised, "It's itself? ”
"Yes." The little milk cat kept nodding her head, "Uncle Sha and I are full, so he said that he was going to wrap up the round by himself today!" ”
As soon as Tang Tang heard this, he immediately turned around and walked towards the village, and said to it: "I'll go and see, I hope it hasn't happened yet." ”
The little milk cat meowed, "It's late! ”
When they arrived in front of the house where Cao Liqiang lived, they found that a large group of people had already gathered here. The little milk cat quietly climbed up to the earthen wall of the house next to her, and lay down not far away to watch the scene.
"Comrades, good news for everyone, today, I caught the thief who stole something!" Cao Liqiang said in high spirits, pointing to the black dog that was tied up and pressed to the ground by Wuhuada, "That's it!" ”
The crowd was in an uproar and restless.
Cao Liqiang was very satisfied when he saw their surprised faces. "Now, please tell me, whose dog is this?"
"Mine!" Xu Changlin, who heard the news, stood up and admitted calmly.
"Yours?" Cao Liqiang revealed his gaze from behind his glasses and looked at him from top to bottom. "Okay, just admit it. Which one are you from? How much time have you been living in the village? Do you know your dog stealing? Or is it deliberately conniving at it? ”
His question was like a machine/off/gun, and it was slammed out in an instant. But Xu Changlin still had a calm face, and said quietly: "I am a Harun who lives in the mountains, and I have nothing to do with the village. ”
Immediately, this matter was separated from Niujiatun, which made many people admire his courage.
When it came to ethnic issues, Cao Liqiang couldn't help but have concerns for a while, staring at his face with stern eyes, only to find that his facial features were deeper than ordinary people, and his figure was a little more powerful, and the people next to him were no different from the people in the village. He narrowed his eyes and warned, "I'll check your identity." Now, you have to give an account of this! ”
He turned his head and ordered: "Carry this dog to the entrance of the village, today we will kill the chickens and monkeys, take a good look at this trend, and never let it spread!" ”
Erhei immediately panicked, "Whoa, let go of the master!" Let go of the master! What do you want to do? Don't move—"
Xu Changlin saw that Erhei was about to be disposed of, so he stepped forward and said, "Stop!" This is the sacred dog of our Hulun tribe, and no one can move it! ”
Everyone was shocked, and Erhei, who was struggling, was also stunned, and couldn't help but shrug his nose with emotion: "Hey, I didn't expect my status to be so lofty, master?" ”
However, how can Cao Liqiang believe this?
"What god dog? It's all feudal dross! He scolded angrily, "If you do something wrong, you will pay the price, this dog is going to move today, what can you do to me?" ”
Xu Changlin suddenly took off the longbow behind his back, aimed the arrow at him, "Let go." ”
Under his threat, Cao Liqiang's glasses were almost crooked, and he took a step forward with a cruel face: "You dare?!" ”
"Come on, shoot me!" He roared arrogantly, not because he didn't dare to do it.
However, Xu Changlin's eyes suddenly deepened, and as soon as his hand was released, the arrow immediately grazed his scalp and shot over, which made Cao Liqiang tremble and take two steps back.
Xu Changlin did not let him go because of this. Several arrows fired in succession, chasing his arms, legs, waist and abdomen, and brushed them one by one, each arrow was extremely accurate, only a fraction of a millimeter, which made people can't help but feel fear.
The last arrow even pressed tightly under his crotch, and the coarse cloth pants were suddenly shot out of a big hole, and Cao Liqiang had fallen to the ground weakly and couldn't get up.
This hand shocked everyone present.
And Xu Changlin just resolutely withdrew his bow and arrows, and walked towards Erhei, and the few people who tied it couldn't help but take a few steps back in fear, watching it untie the black dog.
"Stop him——!" Cao Liqiang struggled to prop himself on the ground, trembling his legs and exerting two strengths, trying to stand up, but he couldn't do it, so he had to hurriedly rush to the others.
But no one present paid attention to him, and Qi Qi watched Xu Changlin step forward and walk away.
Erhei found a backer, and immediately held his head high arrogantly, "snapped" on Cao Liqiang, and ran away with his body fiercely.
The little milk cat was on the wall and couldn't help but praise: "So handsome!" ”
The old dog, who was watching in the corner, couldn't help but look back at it and reminded solemnly: "You are not allowed to learn from it." ”
The little milk cat rubbed its paws and said unconvinced: "I'm obviously talking about Changlin!" Erhei is handsome and hairy, stupid to death, can he be caught? It's just a shame on the face of our foodie world, hum ╭ (╯^╰) ╮! ”
The old dog listened to its complaints, and suddenly gave up education with a helpless face. I don't know what went wrong with me, and I raised the baby crookedly like this, and I can't get it back at all!
On the other side, after Cao Liqiang was helped up, the more he thought about Xu Changlin's presumptuousness, the more angry he became. What's more, he made a fool of himself in front of everyone, his face was dull for a while, and he gritted his gums and said angrily: "He still doesn't take the field department seriously?" Can't let him run away, quick, get him back! ”
The crowd was silent.
Cao Liqiang's anger grew, "What? How dare you disobey my orders? Sue you, this matter will be reported to the field department, and no one will be able to get down! Don't think about next year's seeds and fertilizers, you deserve to be poor and starve for a lifetime! ”
His threat really made the crowd uneasy. Seeing that whispers sounded all around, the old captain said in a deep voice: "It's getting dark, and it's not safe to enter the mountain at this time." ”
"Whew!" Cao Liqiang took off his glasses, wiped his handkerchief, and mocked, "Who let you go into the mountain?" Why don't you just stop him before you enter the mountain? ”
Hearing him say this, the old captain was helpless for a while, and waved his hand to imply that everyone should go to pretend to look for it, and then the crowd dispersed. And he was talking bitterly with Cao Liqiang about the special features of the Hulun tribe, and when he couldn't be provoked, he didn't expect a middle-aged man to run in in a hurry, and said in fear: "Wild dog!" - Wild dogs have descended! ”
The old captain immediately had a sharp mind, stood up with a "rubbing" on the ground, and ran towards the edge of the forest with his feet pulled.
Previously, the wild dogs were driven and killed by the rangers, and they were forced to the other side of the mountain, but they did not expect that they would come back tonight. As soon as Cao Liqiang came, he disbanded the forest ranger team as soon as possible, so that the wild dogs were no longer threatened, and the heart of revenge suddenly rose.
At this time, the sun sets in the west, and night falls, and the dimly lit mountain forest seems to become a natural protective barrier for the wild dog group, and a killing ground is set up for the people of Niujiatun. I don't know how many people will be killed and retaliated against!
The old captain's heart tightened in his throat, and he shouted as he ran: "Quick, gather people to light all the torches, and come with me!" ”
In the mountains and forests, Tang Tang walked while paying attention to the environment under his feet and around him. For the people in the village, going into the mountain to find Xu Changlin was a formality, but Wang Min was supervising the work on the side, so she sent her alone to look in this direction.
What is in mind, it is obvious!
Tang Tang didn't want to have a conflict, so he picked up a branch and walked towards this place, planning to go back after a dozen steps, but she didn't expect that the little strangeness in the air made her nervous.
"Shh——!h
She turned her head, and saw a bush trembling slightly, and the branches moving slightly, making a slight sound. This made her hold her breath and clutch to the branch in front of her.
"Whew-"
In the silent darkness, there was a little heavy breathing, as if it was close at hand.
Tang Tang turned around abruptly and looked around, but there was still nothing around. Her heart was tightened, and she walked cautiously towards the place she had come from, ready to meet the crowd as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly-
A heavily concealed bush suddenly shook, and a man lifted it and walked out.
She was startled: "Scared me to death, why are you?" ”
She was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but to her horror, a string of blood droplets ran down the hem of his clothes.
