Chapter 100: Grasshoppers

Du Heng came to Danhu Mountain.

The snow and ice in the north have just disappeared, and the branches have not yet seen new green. There are still strange rocks on the single fox mountain. Between the rocks, the grass withered. The big river under the cliff was left with only a shriveled riverbed.

There was no one on the mountain, not even insects and birds, only the wind shuttling between the strange rocks, whining ghosts.

Du Heng stood on the cliff, looking at the red sun on the horizon, and sighed.

Every time I went to Shan Hu before, I had Ah Ruo side by side, but this time, I became alone.

The whole mountain is uninhabited.

Du Heng withdrew his gaze and was about to try his luck in the surrounding towns, when he suddenly heard a slight noise not far away. Immediately after, there was an earth-shattering scream.

"Help!"

Du Heng flew to the place where the sound came from, only to see two people in animal skins about to put sacks on the head of a little boy.

The leopard-skinned man threatened while putting on the sack: "You call again! If you scream again, I'll kill you! ”

The tiger-skinned man said impatiently: "If he wants to call, let him call, anyway, there is no one in the place where this bird doesn't, and it's useless for him to call the sky!" ”

The little boy was tied up like a dumpling, and his body twisted around. One moment he put his head on the leopard-skinned man's belly, and the next he swayed left and right and slammed around, just not letting the bag go.

"I said you can't help? Blind? The leopard-skinned man scolded.

The tiger-skinned man said: "You can't even control a hairy child, it's really a rice bucket!" ”

Du Heng saw that these two people were just a little slight, so he wanted to tease them. He hid behind a boulder, hooked his fingers, and suddenly the sack was like a long leg, and it was put on the head of the tiger-skinned man.

"Hey! There's something wrong with you, isn't it? What are you doing with the sack over my head?! ”

"I didn't do it! It's ...... itself," the leopard-skinned man said, shoving the boy aside and helping the tiger-skinned man pick up the sack.

As a result, the sack became tighter and tighter, and the tiger-skinned man was out of breath.

"You...... Are you trying to strangle me on purpose...... What a person...... Go and get the ransom ......"

The leopard-skinned man panicked and said, "No! I really don't! It's really evil, why can't this sack be taken off......"

The little boy looked at Le Ha from the side and said with a smile: "You two stupid thieves, you still want to tie up the little grandfather's ticket?" ”

"Ransom? Kidnap? Du Heng said to himself, "Could it be that this child is the son of a big family?" ”

He hooked his fingers again, and the rope on the little boy was untied. The rope coiled in the air, and then the two scrambled men were tied together.

The little boy blew his wrist that was strangled red, swaggered up to the two, picked up the sack on the tiger-skinned man's head, and said with a smile: "Just now, the little grandfather wanted to give the two of you a chance to make corrections, so he didn't do anything with you, this time, you know the ability of the little grandfather!" ”

The leopard-skinned man's face twitched, and he begged: "It's me who has no beads and has shocked the little grandfather's driving, begging the little grandfather to raise his noble hand and let me go!" ”

The tiger-skinned man shouted, "Are you stupid? If he really had those two hits, how could he be easily caught by the two of us? There must be helpers! ”

The little boy pretended to say, "Where do I have help?" I'm the one who tied you two up, and I'm ......."

Before he finished speaking, the little boy's belt suddenly tightened, and it seemed that an invisible hand lifted the little boy up.

"Who? Who is it? Put me down! ”

The two kidnappers sat on the ground and watched in amazement as the little boy rose higher and higher, flew farther and farther, and finally disappeared around the corner and was out of sight.

The little boy spread his teeth and claws in mid-air for a long time, and was finally gently lowered to the ground. He looked up and saw a handsome man looking at him with his head down, with an amusement.

"Who are you?" The little boy asked.

"Who are you?" Du Heng bent down and asked in the tone of a little boy.

"You didn't tell me, why should I tell you?" The little boy stood up and patted the dust off his buttocks.

Du Heng looked at the little boy who was as tall as his thigh, stretched out a finger against his chin, and rolled his eyes: "You can call me...... Brother. ”

The little boy snorted and said, "Brother? You're so old, and you're embarrassed to be my brother? Uncle is almost ......."

Du Heng was choked up for a while, and his expression was like swallowing a rotten egg.

This little boy looks like he is only five or six years old, but he is almost a thousand years old, not to mention his brother, even if he is a grandfather, it is estimated that he can have dozens of rounds of remaining. But he has always boasted that he is as handsome as a teenager, and those mortals in the mortal world who are many years younger than him are still called "little brother" and "little brother" when they see him.

How did you come to this kid and become an uncle?

"Uncle, was it your trick just now?" The little boy asked with his face tilted and looked angry.

"If you call me uncle again, I'll leave you here and leave you alone!" Du Heng pretended to be angry.

Actually, he really wanted to be angry, but looking at the cute appearance of this little boy with red lips and white teeth, he couldn't afford to lose his temper. Especially those sparkling eyes, like two stars, make him always have a sense of déjà vu.

When the little boy heard that Du Heng was going to throw himself here, he immediately softened and said, "Don't, don't." You see, there's not even a figure here, and if you leave me here alone, you'll starve me to death. ”

He walked to Du Heng's feet, hugged Du Heng's legs, and said coquettishly: "Good uncle, don't be angry, the trick you just made is so powerful, can you teach me?" ”

Du Heng couldn't cry or laugh.

"I can't teach you, I have to send you home." Du Heng squatted down and put his two hands on the little boy's shoulders, "It's getting dark, if you don't go home, your parents will be in a hurry." By the way, where is your home? ”

The little boy said calmly: "I don't have a home, I don't have a father and mother, I'm an orphan." ”

Du Heng raised an eyebrow.

Don't have a home? Although the clothes this kid wears are not very decent, they are also clean and neat, and it is a lie to say that no one cares. But he doesn't look stupid, not like the kind of demon king who jokes about the safety of his parents. And just now, the two wastes said that they would exchange him for ransom, it must be the little master of which family.

"I really don't have a father and mother," the little boy saw Du Heng's suspicious look, so he squeezed his eyes hard, squeezed out two small tears, and sobbed, "I only have one aunt, but she treats me badly, I don't want to go back!" ”

Du Hengwei felt a little surprised, this kid's face became upside down quickly, and he actually cried when he said he was crying.

"And where are you going?"

The little boy said categorically: "I want to follow you!" ”

Du Heng smiled helplessly: "This is not good, I still have very important things to do, the road is very dangerous, you will have to bloom with me." ”

"I don't care!" The little boy pouted and exclaimed, "You just saved me, so you have to be responsible for me!" ”

Du Heng sighed with a smile and said, "Otherwise, you tell me how your aunt treats you badly, and then I decide whether to send you back." ”

She ...... She ......," the little boy scratched his head, "she never told the truth, she lied to me!" ”

"What did she lie to you?"

The little boy put his hands behind his back and said, "I won't tell you!" ”

"If you don't tell me, how do I know if your aunt treats you well?" Du Heng spread his hands helplessly.

The little boy hesitated for a moment, then said with a sad expression: "She...... She said that my father was a good person, my mother was a bad person, and my mother lied to my father and didn't want me anymore. But I've heard others say that my father has killed a lot of people, my father is a bad person, and my mother is the one who was deceived...... Anyway, neither of them wants me in the end......"

Du Heng sighed in his heart.

Unexpectedly, this kid's life experience is quite complicated, and it is estimated that his aunt deceived him a lot in order to hide the mistakes his father had made. Is a home full of lies still a home?

Du Heng smiled bitterly: "Then since you want to go with me, you have to tell me what your name is, right?" ”

The little boy rolled his eyes and said, "My name is Grasshopper!" ”

Du Heng helped his forehead. He stood up and looked at the sunset that was about to disappear into the horizon, his expression serious.

The gnats tugged at the corners of Du Heng's clothes and said, "Uncle, do you have anything important to do?" I'm here to help you. ”

"I'm going to find something, but I don't know where it is......" Du Heng muttered, not knowing if he was answering the gnats or asking himself.

"What are you looking for?"

Du Heng lowered his head, looked at the young white face of the grasshopper, and smiled: "A sword." ”

"Sword ......?" The grasshopper lowered its head thoughtfully, then raised it with a grin, "Isn't that sword so powerful?" Can anything be cut? I've seen it! ”

"You've seen it?" Du Heng was full of suspicions.

"Uh-huh! And I also know where it is. If you're lucky enough to have met me today, come with me! ”

Du Heng was stopped by the gnat, and walked down the mountain. He looked at the back of the ghost's head, feeling a little helpless, but also very interesting.

I don't know where Su Hua is, so it's better to go with this kid to have a look. In this wilderness, it is not safe for him to be alone outside.

Two people, one big and one small, came to a melon field at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, the moon rises deep in the mountains, and the cold white moonlight pours into the melon field, which is cool.

The grasshopper pulled Du Heng to hide behind a cluster of bushes, stretched out his index finger and put it to his mouth, "shh ”

Du Heng looked at the hand of the grasshopper and found that there was a small temple in the middle of the melon field.

It's early spring now, and the grass is still close but not in other places, but the melon fields here are green, and the bucket-sized green watermelons look lovely in the moonlight.

The melon field is very large, and there is no road leading to the small temple around, so outsiders must wade through the melon field if they want to approach the small temple.

Du Heng looked at the little brain melon of the gnats and asked, "Do you want to eat watermelon for fear of being beaten, so you tricked me into coming over to help you steal it?" ”

"What am I lying to you for?" The gnats pursed their mouths, "I saw the stinky monk in the temple walk in with a sword with my own eyes that day!" ”

He glanced at the watermelons in the field, looked at Du Heng's feet, and said, "Uncle, do you know how to fly?" ”

"What are you asking for?"

The grasshopper pointed to the watermelons in the field and said, "Those melons will bite." ”

"Melons bite?"

Before Du Heng could ask again, the outermost side of the melon field was close to the two of them, and suddenly a watermelon jumped up and barked loudly.

The round watermelon turned into a green-haired dog!

Du Heng picked up a stone and slammed it at the green-haired dog. The green-haired dog screamed "woo", and then changed back to the appearance of a watermelon, and it was broken.

"That's amazing!" The grasshopper clenched its small fist in admiration.

However, before the grasshoppers were happy, the watermelons in the field turned into green-haired dogs one after another, shaking their heads and barking at the two of them.
