Chapter 68: Leather Fox Fairy
When the black dog came to Zhao Jianhong, he just flattered and wagged his tail with the charcoal ball.
"This dog is called 'fine dog', and the biggest characteristic is that he is agile, catching rabbits and pheasants, and he is a good hand. On the hillside, it may be almost there, but if it is on land, even a leather fox will have to be caught by it! Zhao Jianhong patted the black dog's head and said to Nie Yun.
"Leather Fox?"
Hearing Zhao Jianhong say about the fox, Nie Yun couldn't help but be stunned.
"Leather Fox, it's a weasel!" Tian Zhen reminded Nie Yun in a whisper beside him.
The weasel has a lot of names in Nie Yun's hometown, generally called "yellow mouse", and also called skin fox. When Nie Yun was a child, he had only heard of the yellow mouse, he had not been in his hometown for so many years, and he knew very little about the dialect of his hometown.
"Even a weasel can be caught?"
Nie Yun couldn't help but glance at the black dog.
There is a specialization in the art industry, this black dog is strong in size, and there is no comparison with a large dog like a charcoal ball, if it is a head-on hard fight, this black dog to ten may not be the opponent of the charcoal ball. But if you run on a wide land, even if you have ten charcoal balls behind you, you can't catch up with this black dog.
The weasel is already an extremely fast beast, but this black dog can even catch a weasel, which is enough to show how powerful this black dog is.
Weasel, that is, weasel, not only moves quickly, but also has a special ability to fart, and the average beast has nothing to do with it, but as the saying goes, one thing descends one thing, and the weasel is most afraid of dogs. This Nie Yun had heard when he was a child that weasels dared to steal chickens, but a newborn little stupid dog, weasels didn't dare to steal it. In addition, in addition to being afraid of dogs, weasels can not steal geese, although geese are also poultry, but there is no night blindness, weasels dare to approach geese at night, geese peck, weasel is also quite jealous......
"Hehe, speaking of this leather fox, there are still a lot of stories of leather fox fairies here in our county. Let's go, while going up the mountain, I'll tell you about it! β
Zhao Jianhong said, taking the black dog, and walked towards the Qinglong Mountain, which was close at hand.
Nie Yun and Tian Zhen also followed closely.
While climbing the mountain, Zhao Jianhong told a story to Nie Yuntian Zhen.
"It is said that in this place six miles northeast of Qinglong Mountain, there used to be a village called Lao Gu'a, and there was a sheep herder in the village called Lao Youju. In our place in the past, there were a lot of sheep, and in the summer, the sheep were driven to Qinglong Mountain to put it, one is that the grass on Qinglong Mountain is good, and the other is that the air on the mountain is good and breathable, and the sheep do not have any problems, they are on the mountain day and night, and they do not go down the mountain until the beginning of autumn.
One night one summer, the old oil pot and his companions were on the mountain, the rain was pouring incessantly, the thunder followed by the lightning, and the shaking seemed that the mountain was shaking, and the eyes of the lightning-illuminated fox were blue and shining, like a marquee, which was extraordinarily terrifying, and from time to time there was a terrible howl of a wolf. The sheep trembled with fright, and clinged to each other.
In an instant, the old oil pot they saw a giant dragon churning up and down in the air, opening its teeth and dancing its claws, grabbing the sulfur egg and throwing it at a red-furred fox who was tired of running for his life, the sulfur egg exploded and the person couldn't open it, the grass on the ground was suddenly scorched black, the old oil pot they were so frightened that they sat on the ground and didn't dare to move, the old oil pot only felt that the clothes moved, and they wanted to get into something, the old oil pot was only afraid, the upper and lower teeth touched the sound of the grid, and the whole body trembled, God seemed to be crazy, the lightning tore the sky, and the wind wanted to sweep everything away on the mountain, Thunder will split the mountain to pieces.
After a while, the rain stopped and the sky was clear, and the old oil pot slowly woke up, and only then did they remember to see what was in his coat, and when they saw it in the starlight, it turned out to be a frightened little leather fox!
The old oil pot patted it on the head, 'Don't be afraid, it's not raining, let's go!' β
The companions asked: 'To whom does the oil pot speak?' β
As soon as the little fox heard someone talking, he swept the old oil pot and disappeared.
Since then, the old oil pot has a daughter-in-law of the fox fairy, near the village, who has a disaster, just ask for the daughter-in-law of the fox, you can eliminate the disaster, it is very effective. This is the story of the old oil pot and the leather fox fairy! β
A folk legend story was told by Zhao Jianhong.
The story is not twists and turns, but Nie Yun and Tian Zhen listened very carefully.
In this story, the old oil pot saved the skin fox fairy, and the skin fox fairy repaid the favor and became the daughter-in-law of the old oil pot, which was originally a clichΓ© plot, but to have a powerful skin fox fairy wife, to cure diseases and save people, Ze was in the township, which also made Nie Yun yearn for it very much......
It's just that I don't know if this fox fairy daughter-in-law is as charming and beautiful as the fox spirit in Liaozhai......
"Hehe, this story was told to me by my grandmother earlier, in fact, near this Qinglong Mountain, there is indeed a village called Lao Agu, and there is indeed a legend of the fox fairy in this village."
Zhao Jianhong said as he continued to climb the mountain.
"But whether it's true or not, it's not clear!"
"It may be true, or it may be some god old woman, in order to put gold on her face, she said that her ancestors were leather fox fairies, and her magical powers were vast, so she made up the story!" Zhao Jianhong said.
"Whether it's true or not, it's always a story of persuasion for good. And at least people and animals get along harmoniously in this story, which is not bad! β
Smiling slightly, Nie Yun said in the back.
This Qinglong Mountain, Zhao Jianhong climbs two, three or four a year, there is a small mountain road at the foot of the mountain, and when he reaches the halfway up the mountain, there is no road, so he can only pick up the place to climb up. Fortunately, the slope of Qinglong Mountain is relatively gentle, and there are a lot of rocks and weeds, so it is not too difficult to climb.
Just halfway up the mountain, after walking a few steps, a yellow-colored hare suddenly burst out of the grass in front of him, and the hare was startled by Nie Yun and a few people, and ran towards the mountain with joy.
"Woohoo!"
When he saw the rabbit, the charcoal ball barked and wanted to chase after him.
"The charcoal ball is back! You can't catch up! And at this time, I heard Tian Zhen stop the charcoal ball all of a sudden.
"Wow!"
Tanqiu obediently stopped, looked at Tian Zhen with some doubts, and didn't know why Tian Zhen stopped him.
And Nie Yun also looked at Tian Zhen, not knowing why.
"Rabbits run up the hill very fast, they have long hind legs, short front legs, and when they go up the hill, they kick and kick on their hind legs, and it is easy to go up. However, when going down the mountain, when you kick your hind legs, you will fall on your heels. Therefore, the rabbits that go up the mountain generally can't catch up, and the rabbits that go down the mountain are easy to catch! β
Seeing Nie Yun looking at him, Tian Zhen hurriedly explained.
"Hehe, Nie Yun, when it comes to the experience of catching rabbits on the mountain, I'm afraid you can't even compare to Xiao Zhen......"
Zhao Jianhong also smiled, obviously agreeing with Tian Zhen's statement.
Although the charcoal ball did not chase after it, Zhao Jianhong brought the sunspot, but he spread his four legs and chased after the rabbit on the mountain.
"This is uphill, and it's hard to say whether Kuroko can catch up with this rabbit, but when you reach the top of the mountain, there is a flat place, and Kuroko chases rabbits and pheasants. When the time comes, I will put two shots, and if I can put down the rabbit or something, let the charcoal ball pick it up! β
Zhao Jianhong also knew that the dog king of the charcoal ball had self-esteem, and hurriedly said.
"Woo ......"
The charcoal ball whined twice unhappily to protest, picking up such a thing as a ready-made cheap, the dog king of the charcoal ball can't do it......
"Forget it, if the charcoal ball can't catch the rabbit, let it starve!"
Nie Yun said with a smile.
Continuing to walk up the mountain, it was only a matter of moments, but I saw a black shadow on the mountain flying down, it was the sunspot who had gone to chase rabbits before. At this moment, the sunspot not only came back by himself, but also had an earthy yellow thing in his mouth, which was the hare he had chased before!
"Good guy, I didn't expect the sunspot to really catch up with this rabbit, and before he went up the mountain, he caught one, which is a good start!" Zhao Jianhong said happily when he saw the sunspot coming back with the hare.
This sunspot brought the rabbit over, but he didn't give the rabbit to Zhao Jianhong as Zhao Jianhong did when he went up the mountain to catch the rabbit a few times before, but he wagged his tail, ran to the charcoal ball, put the rabbit at the foot of the charcoal ball, and asked for a reward with a flattering face.
"Wow!"
The charcoal ball also stepped on his feet happily, barked twice at the sunspot, bit the rabbit with one mouth, pressed his front paws on the rabbit corpse, and tore the rabbit corpse in half with a light tear. Then he picked up half of it, put it in front of Kuroko, and chewed on the other half......
Zhao Jianhong next to him was already dumbfounded.
"This sunspot, damn it, I saw that the dog king actually rebelled!"
Looking at the two large dogs, Zhao Jianhong couldn't help but laugh and scold.
"Forget it, brother, I think it's hard for us to get wild meat if we don't let them eat first this time. Keep going up the mountain! Seeing the charcoal ball and the sunspot eating the rabbit that was nearly two catties heavy, Nie Yun also shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"That is, there is a lot of game on this mountain, and if you change it to another small hill, there are three or two rabbits in it, which is not enough for these two to eat!" Zhao Jianhong also said with a smile.
The three men and two dogs continued to ascend the mountain, but in a few moments, they had already reached the first mountain.
There are not only weeds on this mountain, but also a lot of trees in a mess, just arrived at the top of the mountain, I heard a few flutters in a pine forest in front of me, and a colorful pheasant flew out.
"There it is!"
And at this time, without waiting for the charcoal ball and sunspot to move, Zhao Jianhong quickly raised the shotgun in his hand.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out, and the pheasant fell from mid-air without any suspense and fell into the grass more than 20 meters away.
"Charcoal balls, don't eat them first this time, this is a male pheasant, plucked to make specimens, it is also a good handicraft!" A pat on the head of the charcoal ball, Zhao Jianhong said.
