Time passed equally fast around Dorao and Willow Branch, and in the blink of an eye, both of them were almost six years old. The adults all said with a little singing: "I'm almost six years old, and I'm about to enter the school." ”

The school is three or four miles away from here, and what kind of door is it, neither Dorau nor Willow Branch have ever seen it. But he heard Zu Cun say that he had been to the school several times, and in fact, the door in the school was similar to the door at home, but it was higher and wider. Especially the door facing the "Sun-Guping", it's so wide! Very high! Most of the school is playing with spinning tops and competitions! If your spinning top is hit by someone's family, you can only keep your head down. Dorau listened attentively, and he imagined that it must be more humiliating than losing to catch ants with willow branches. Willow Branch heard it differently, girls don't play with spinning tops, they kick shuttlecocks. You can't kick the shuttlecock well, how can you be a good student? Someone can kick a dozen at a time, and they don't fall all at once.

Therefore, the most urgent thing for Dorao and Willow Branch in the gap between looking for pigweed is to get a spinning top and a shuttlecock respectively.

The first problem of Duolao is to have suitable wood, to have miscellaneous wood, just the diameter of a spinning top; The second is that even if you find just the right wood, you need to have a saw, and you must see a piece of material as long as a spinning top; The third is that even if it is sawed down, you need to have an axe, not a kitchen knife. "Thinking" Gyro sighed and decided to go to Zucun.

Who knew that Zucun actually had two spinning tops! He said that both of them were miscellaneous wood, and when they collided, they were kings! But it cost four cents, which he bought from his cousin for five cents, and when it was old, it was discounted for a penny. Duo Lao took a look at it, and it was really good, and the threads were also turned out with turning tools. Zu Cun said that the thread can make the whip pull up and solid, so it turns fast, and this spinning top is heavy, and no one can touch it and win. Duo Lao decided to bite the bullet and ask his father for four cents, and if he didn't give it, he said that he would pay him back when he grew up.

Liuzhi's mother fully understood that this was a thing made of iron with a square hole in the middle and loose linen like a smiley Xiang Yuekui. She promised to help her daughter make one, which was her favorite toy in her youth and one of her best activities.

The floor of the willow branch house was made of some lime and fine sand, which was taken for drying grain, but it became a good place for Duo Lao to smoke a spinning top. He learned to raise the whip outward, and the spinning top wrapped around the fine hemp rope turned on the ground, "snap"! With a whip, the top jumped to another place, spinning wildly with a thin, rapid sound. Dorau was triumphant, like a mighty knight, whipping his horse. "Pap" and "Pap" added two whips in a row, and the top jumped twice in response like a clown. Dorau also jumped up to the willow branch like a spinning top, and now, his men: the spinning top, was turning for him in oblivion, he still had free time, and spare energy, and he looked at her in one or two; One, two, three practiced kicking, and he wanted to whip her and make her spin like his spinning top. This kick and kick, what does it smell like?

Dorao retreated to the top, and after adding a few whips, he jumped up to the willow branch and shoved the whip at her: "Mo kick, Mo kick!" Go! Go for two whips too! ”

Willow Branch glanced at him, turned around, one, two; One, two, three......

He took her by the shoulders, twisted her around, shoved the whip in her hand, and called out seductively, "Go! Try two whips! ”

Reluctantly, Willow took the whip and limped towards the top, as if she had not yet woken up, not like she was going to smoke a horse, but as if she were herding a sheep. She slapped a lazy whip on the top's head, which seemed to ignore her and still spin in place.

"How can this be done, force! Sweep across! Dorau stood behind her, like a stern coach.

The willow branch had to strike sideways, and this time, the spinning top was still standing in place, but it swayed like drunk, and its rotation soon slowed down. Willow Branch threw away the whip and flew into the house with the shuttlecock.

In the afternoon, Dorao came to Zucun's house, and he asked him to bring the top to them, and the two tops collided with each other, and showed the willow branch to amuse her addiction, and in the future he would find a way to make a top, and it would be better to hit her than to hit the top.

But things didn't go as expected, Zucun's father asked him to call the old man who drove the boar, and he was about to leave, what should he do? Zu Cun thought to himself that he had received four cents from him last time! decided to lend him the spinning top for half a day, and let him smoke and collide with the willow branch first.

Duo Lao put the two spinning tops alive in the ping, each of them gave a few whips fiercely, rushed to the willow branch, and stuffed her with a whip: "Come! Come! Draw out! Hurry up and smoke! ”

Willow stopped kicking the shuttlecock, and instead of taking his whip, he turned his hand behind his back.

Duo Lao stamped his feet, anxious like a cat scratching his heart, "Quick! Just go and hit one, wait a little longer, the gyro will die! ”

"No!" Her hands were still behind her back, motionless.

"You smoke the big one, I smoke the small one, the big one is powerful, and you will definitely win!"

"No!"

Dorao was as fast as a cat, and reflexively jumped to the top of the top, and the two spinning tops that longed for their masters were dizzy and could not stand, and Dorao's whip "snapped" and beat them severely, these things were born to love to be beaten, and the more they beat, the more cheerful they became. Duolao's heart itched even more, and he made up his mind to kill it.

The shuttlecock on the feet of the willow branch, who was happy on the first, second, and third days, was grabbed by Duo Lao, who shot at him, and he ran to the pond, threw the shuttlecock into the pond, and then turned around and stretched out his hand holding the whip to the willow branch: "Come!" Take it, bump it and see! ”

But the willow branch brushed past him and ran to the edge of the pond, the shuttlecock in the water was like a girl who fell into the water, and the loose hemp around it sank for a while like the last hair that could be seen, and the willow branch squatted a few times. I want to jump into the water. Dorau shouted: "The water is deep here! The water is deep here! You can't go down, you can't go down! As he ran over, he was about to give her the whip.

Willow didn't dare to go down to the pond, she squatted down, rubbed her hands on her eyes, and soon cried. Dorau withdrew his hand holding the whip, stood behind the willow branch, looked at her bulging chest, and listened to her cry one after another, and felt stupid at this moment. The only way is to jump in and catch the shuttlecock. He was going to jump, undressed. But Willow stood up and looked at him with teary eyes. He took off his pants, and it was for real. Liu Zhi suddenly shouted: "I don't want this shuttlecock!" ”

They had all heard from the adults that the water in this pond was very deep, and there were two water monkeys in it, and they would bite people when they saw them, and the people who were bitten to death became ghosts in this pond, and the ghosts also bit people's necks in the water. Seriously, Willow Branch is afraid that Duolao will be eaten by the water monkeys, who will play with her. Duo Lao can hear everything, but somehow he can't hear her cry, he can't see her crying sadly, he is wholeheartedly trying to help her to fish up, I heard her say that this shuttlecock is gone, and I thought that he and Zu Cun just pressed the stones on the dock a few times to make the dog climb the water, and now jump down to catch this thing is still not sure, and I don't know how big the water monkey is, so I still don't go into the water.

He walked to the two spinning tops that had been "dead" on the ground, picked up his top, walked to the edge of the pond, and threw it in front of the willow branch, and suddenly the willow branch's cry was reduced by three points.

He thought of Zucun again, he was close to the people below, and other people might have shuttlecocks at home, where was he going to get four cents to buy shuttlecocks for him.

Willow Branch walked into the house in a huff, and Duo Lao hurried to the ancestral house.

The old herd who shouted to drive the boar did not find anyone and came back. When he saw him fiddling with something on his desk, he looked at it and saw that it was an iron lump and a piece of iron sheet together, and when he saw that he was coming, he said to him happily and mysteriously: "The boar didn't shout, but picked up an iron lump and put it on this piece of iron, and they got up!" You see! You see! ”

Dorau looked at the monster for a while, and suddenly his heart moved. So he returned the spinning top to Zucun, and then told him about the shuttlecock he threw the shuttlecock of the willow branch into the water, and then put forward one of his ideas: "You lend me this thing, and I will hang a rope and throw it into the pond, and the middle of the shuttlecock is also iron, let it bring the shuttlecock up." ”

Zu Cun thought for a while and said, "If you want to lend it to you, but in the evening my father also asked me to call the old man who drove the boar, and you have to go with me to be a companion." ”

"Okay, okay, you want it." Dorau suddenly thought of another question and said, "Is your family a little numb?" There is hemp on the shuttlecock, can you afford it? ”

Zu Cun brought some loose hemp, and through the test, there was a layer of hemp in the middle, and Duo Lao patted the table: "I will definitely go with you to call the old man who drives the pigs at night!" ”

Hearing a sound by the pond, the willow branch looked through the window, what were Duo Lao and Zu doing by the pond? Did they learn to fish? Before the tears had dried, she forgot for a moment what had been hateful, and walked out of the door quickly, and there was a wet shuttlecock hanging from under a thin hemp rope that Dolao was holding in his hand, plus a black thing. Where did they get a shuttlecock? Are you here to compensate her?

Like the loss and recovery of a major property, but also like the reunion of old friends so happy, Duo Lao separated the magnet and the shuttlecock, shook the shuttlecock a little water, jumped into the sky, the body turned in the air, when it landed, it had already turned half a circle, at the same time, a shuttlecock was placed in the palm of the willow branch.

They threw a few broken bricks and clods of earth into the pond, and each time they threw them, the spinning top that floated on the surface of the water shook a few times and moved a little closer to them.
