In August, although it is hot, there are times when it rains.

Zheng Si squatted in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside the window. A fist-sized toad calmly crawled from the side of the cement road not far from the door.

There was frog croaking everywhere outside.

Xiaoyuzi was lying on the table drawing, the electric fan was stopped, and the wind outside the window was moist and cool.

Zheng Si looked in the direction of Yetang, not knowing where the little girl would go today.

Recently, Xiaoyuzi and their shrimp fishing have only gone every once in a while, and they will not run to the wild pond every day, but Zheng Si will go over to help the little girl when he has time. When the weather is fine, the little girl will catch shrimp in the wild pond, and on rainy days, she may be catching frogs. The little girl looked thin, and Zheng Si saw her hack a finger-thick snake with the severed scythe two days ago.

At that time, the child's face was not afraid, and even the expression on his face did not change much during the whole process, if he really wanted to say it, there was a little excitement in his eyes, snakes are also meat. Zheng sighed, this little girl is estimated to have been used to it for a long time, and she doesn't know how many snakes she has cut with that sickle, and she is bold enough, which is higher than the force value of ordinary children.

After the rain stopped, Zheng Si went to Yetang the next day, and after waiting for a while, he saw the little girl walking over with "equipment".

Seeing Zheng Si waiting there, the little girl's originally frowning brows stretched out, and she walked a few steps quickly.

Although it only rained yesterday, as soon as the rain stopped, the temperature rose rapidly, and coupled with the sun in the morning, many places were not so wet. In a day or two, some of the dirt roads that are often walked on will probably be the same dry as the previous days.

Tie the earthworms, lower the poles, and then divide the labor. After two or three hours, you can catch some, but after all, the wild pond is only so big, and after fishing for so long, the harvest is not as good as when it was at the beginning. This little girl doesn't leave the pond until after 6 p.m. every day. Zheng sighed no. He had to go back at about five o'clock, otherwise he would have to listen to Jiao's mother's nagging. Zheng Si doesn't need a watch, he can guess the approximate time point by looking at the sun above his head.

This little girl also knows that every afternoon at that approximate point in time, the black cat has to go back. Today is different, though.

Zheng Si was looking at the pole. Keep an eye on that line. The thread will be tight when there are shrimp clips. Larger shrimp will even pull the wooden poles. Seeing an earthworm sandwiched with shrimp, Zheng Si motioned for the little girl to come over.

After catching the shrimp, the little girl didn't put the rod down again. It's about putting things away.

Closing the rod so early today?

Zheng sighed and wondered.

After cleaning up, the little girl asked Zheng Si to follow.

Although I didn't quite understand what this little girl was going to do, it was still early, so Zheng Si followed.

Walking to a nearby wooded area, the little girl hid all the wooden poles to prevent them from being taken away by the other children, and then quickly disposed of the shrimp in the bucket, leaving only the shrimp and some large clips, and throwing away the rest, so that it could save a lot of effort.

When he was in the woods, Zheng Si saw the person again, the three of them walked together, Zheng Sian hid in the grass and stared over there, and pulled the little girl who was cleaning up the shrimp next to her, and motioned her to hide.

Seeing that the black cat was so vigilant, the little girl thought that there was something dangerous, and she couldn't take care of the shrimp, so she immediately hid behind the bushes, lay on her stomach on the ground, and looked over there from the gap in the bushes.

After the three of them left, Zheng Si's tense muscles relaxed.

"Who are they? Did I beat you? The little girl looked at Zheng Si suspiciously.

Hey?

This little girl doesn't know them?

Before, Zheng Si thought that the sisters in the little girl's family were sold to these people by their father, but now it seems that there is a difference from what she imagined. If it's sold to these people, the little girl shouldn't know any of them, right?

For a while, Zheng Si really couldn't think of a reason.

When she left the place where the wooden pole was hidden, the little girl took Zheng Si a little farther away and stopped near a fruit forest. There is also a metal mesh on the periphery of the fruit forest, which is estimated to be strictly guarded. There is a small stone bridge here, but the original stream below the stone bridge has dried up for many years and has grown weeds. Also, it doesn't seem to be a lot of people around here.

The little girl slid down the slope and pushed through the grass where there was a hole in it. Zheng Si watched her take out some miscellaneous items one after another, as well as a small aluminum pot.

There are some green bricks on the side under the stone bridge, and there are traces of burning black on the bricks, Zheng Si watched her surround the bricks into an "N" shape, and then put a small aluminum pot on it, put haywood and firewood in the crack at the bottom, struck a match to light it, and began to cook shrimp.

It's a very simple boiled shrimp, Zheng Si doesn't have an appetite when he looks at it, but the little girl seems to be staring at something delicious.

After cooking, the little girl handed Zheng Si a shrimp ball, Zheng Si didn't eat it, she solved it all. Put everything back in place when you're done.

The little girl told Zheng Si that this was her "secret base", and she would probably come here during meals, and only go home to sleep at night. When she mentions "going home", she has disgust in her eyes.

It's almost dark, and Zheng Si can't stay here forever.

After Zheng Si left, the little girl walked to another place, pushed aside the grass, and there was a wide-mouth glass canned bottle on the side inside, and the one in the glass bottle was the candy that Xiaoyuzi gave her, and she had already eaten three, looking at the remaining two, she sighed, hesitated, picked up one, carefully tore open the wrapping paper, took out the sugar inside, sorted out the plastic wrapping paper outside, and put it in the canned bottle, where there were already four wrappers.

With sugar in her mouth, the little girl lay down against the slope, and the milky fragrance and sweetness of the sugar made her eyes squint with love.

At night, Zheng Si was in a bad mood and couldn't sleep, so he ran outside to pee, and he was not used to the thatched house, but he saw that many children here were directly looking for a place to solve it, and Zheng Sian would also go to a place where no one was to solve it secretly.

Flipping out of the window, Zheng Si came out of the backyard and ran out. He doesn't want to be close, and he can't sleep now anyway, so he runs far away to go shopping and solve internal emergencies by the way.

The night in the countryside was not very quiet for Zheng Si, with the constant chirping of insects and frogs, and the occasional barking of dogs. In the darkness of the night. Zheng Si's actions will not be hindered, and sometimes he will encounter other cats in the village, and some will provoke, but Zheng Si is not in the mood to pay attention to them.

Blowing the evening breeze, I took a walk, and then found a place to solve the internal emergency.

When Zheng Si was pulling, his ears moved, and someone came this way. Originally, I didn't plan to ignore it, and I went back after solving the internal emergency. The audible voice stopped Zheng Si's steps as he was about to leave.

It's really fateful. Run into it once during the day. I ran into this guy again on the big night.

Zheng Si hid aside, waiting for the people over there to approach.

There were only two people who walked over, one was the person Zheng Si knew who had been pushed down the artificial lake by himself, and the other was probably a villager here. With an accent. There was a smell of alcohol coming from the two of them. The conversation was full of gossip from the village. There were still some meat jokes, but Zheng Si noticed that the villager called the people around him "snake heads".

Zheng Si didn't hear them talk about some of the core issues. I was a little disappointed. However, it is rare to meet again, the other party is still a person who has drunk, and the big night is the right time and place for Zheng Si, and Zheng Si is unhappy if he doesn't teach him a lesson.

After thinking about it, Zheng Si suddenly remembered what was written in the diary of the kid who lived next door. According to the description above, there should be a trap around here.

Zheng Si crept in front of them from the side, and there was a fork in the road along the dirt road, and the boy wrote in his diary that he had dug a hole behind the penultimate house, in the middle of the fence in the backyard and the dirt road. They wouldn't dare to brazenly dig a hole in this dirt road, they would be beaten. Digging not far from the roadside, some villagers turned a blind eye, anyway, they only walked on the dirt road, as for the side one, it was obvious that there were holes dug there, and even weeds did not grow.

However, in the evening, especially after drinking, the consciousness is not so clear, and I can't see the "obvious" trap that I can't remember.

Zheng Si easily found the trap, about three or four meters away from this dirt road, and there were many weeds around, so it could be seen that few people were going this way. The trap dug by children is as simple as digging a square pit about half a meter long, then setting up a few thin wooden sticks and spreading some grass on them. Zheng Si also smelled the stench coming from inside, and it was estimated that those bear children would pee here from time to time, otherwise it would be too simple to just dig a pit, and it would be in vain for them to dig it.

Zheng Si tried the bearing capacity of the thin wooden stick, he would definitely fall down when he stood on it, let alone an adult?

The two of them were getting closer and closer. Zheng Si hid on the other side of the dirt road, different from the trap.

Although he has drunk alcohol, the vigilance of the "snake head" is still there. He always felt like someone was watching him. I took a flashlight and shone it around, but there was nothing but a few insects that were jumping.

Could it be that I drank too much wine?

"What's wrong?" The villager who was talking about it asked when he saw the head of the snake stop.

"Nothing." The head shook his head and continued on his way.

The villager didn't care, and continued what he had just said.

Still, the head of the snake has a weird feeling.

"Click!"

There was a soft sound next to it.

"Who?!" The head of the snake looked at the place where the noise came from, but the flashlight beckoned, and he only saw the wooden fence of the vegetable garden in the backyard of the house.

The villagers were about to say something, but the snake head raised his hand to stop, and the hand that did not hold the flashlight took out a dagger from his waist, and first looked in the opposite direction of the wooden fence to make sure that no one would sneak attack from behind, and there was no one to hide here, so he turned around and walked towards the vegetable garden, where there were many places to hide, such as thatched houses, and a simple wooden shed.

Zheng Si hid in the grass, the grass at this height really can't hide people, but it's just right to hide a cat. At the same time, Zheng Si sighed in his heart, this person's vigilance is really high, and the last time he was able to push him off the lake, it is estimated that luck is the main thing. But it was just right that he threw only one clod of dirt in that direction, and he passed. At the same time, on the other hand, it is speculated that this means that this guy has done something wrong, so he should be more careful?

Seeing this momentum, the villager swallowed his saliva and looked around, it was pitch black, even if it was a meter around him, he couldn't see clearly, only the range illuminated by the flashlight could see more clearly. He didn't bring a flashlight, and walked after the snakehead, but he didn't dare to get too close to the snakehead, what if he hurt himself?

Zheng Si watched the snake head approach the trap, but the route taken by the snake head was a little bit off from the place where the trap was located, and if he went straight, it was estimated that he would be able to pass just past the edge of the trap.

The head of the snake felt that someone must be hiding around, and the feeling of being watched just now should not be his hallucination, no matter what, it was better to be vigilant.

"Poof!" There was a slight noise on the other side of the wooden shed.

The head of the snake tightened the dagger in his hand, walked a few steps to that side, deviated from the original route, and said to the wooden shed: "Come out, I see you ......"

Before the word "you" was finished, the head of the snake felt a strong attack on his lower back.

This time the snake's head was not directly pushed down, he just moved two steps to the side to reflexively dodge, according to normal conditions, he was able to stand firmly, but unfortunately, there were a few "clicks" where his feet landed, and his feet sank, and his whole person fell to the side.

The snake head knew that there was the villager standing not far behind him, and he had just made sure that there was no one else in the area behind him, so the snake head didn't pay much attention to the back, but there was still such a situation.

When he fell, the head of the snake was still scolding in his heart: paralyzed, it's the second time! In addition to being inexplicably pushed into the lake in Chuhua University, this is the second time that he has been inexplicably tricked!

What the hell is going on?!

Did you hit the evil spirit?! (To be continued)
