Chapter Seventy-Eight: Two or Three Things About Catching Birds

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" the second girl who came over was so anxious that she was about to cry. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's swollen, woo woo woo, blow blow" Wu Yuanqing squatted on the ground and stretched out his left hand holding a bow, and whimpered with a crying voice.

I saw that Wu Yuanqing's originally slender fingers, and the thumb near the tiger's mouth was already black and purple, and it was swollen.

"Poof, haha" Li Chengqian was very worried, but when he heard Wu Yuanqing's crying and pitiful coquettish voice, he was inexplicably poked into the laughter, and he couldn't help but laugh directly, "Blow!" Hahaha. Wu Yuanqing, you're really enough."

"Whew, huh" Erya little Lori held her eldest brother's hand distressedly, pouted and blew her fingers, while slanting Li Chengqian's eyes, her eyes seemed to be with a knife, and she shot at him coldly.

Half a sound, the pain passed.

Wu Yuanqing touched Erya's head with his right hand, and said dotingly: "You don't have to blow it, it's much better now, or my Erya has the ability, and it won't hurt if you blow on the eldest brother's finger."

Being a little embarrassed to be praised, Er Ya shyly arched his head to Wu Yuanqing's neck, and his small hand grabbed his right hand and swayed slightly.

When the brother and sister were enjoying the warm family affection, Li Chengqian on the side jumped out again to destroy the atmosphere: "Since you have good hands, let's continue to play."

"Hmph, I don't want to play with you" Er Ya suddenly raised her little head from the eldest brother's neck, and said angrily, childish and childish.

"I won't play with you again," Li Chengqian choked back.

"Yes, listen to my second girl, I don't play with you" Wu Yuanqing naturally wanted to help his sister-in-law.

"Listen to your sister, listen," Li Chengqian jumped violently.

"Yes, listen to my sister" Wu Yuanqing took it for granted.

Look at each other.

"Okay, if you don't play, you won't play, so what to play" Li Chengqian conceded defeat first.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't play," Wu Yuanqing asked.

"I mean don't play with slingshots, I didn't say I don't play anything else," Li Chengqian was angry.

"Oh, then catch the birds," Wu Yuanqing said casually.

"Your sister, didn't you say you wouldn't play" Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief and didn't suffocate to death.

"Don't play with slingshots, and you didn't say you won't catch birds," Wu Yuanqing said lightly.

"How to catch without a slingshot" Li Chengqian was going crazy.

"It's not called catching with a slingshot, it's called fighting," Wu Yuanqing corrected.

"Okay, don't be in the ink, you just say what to do" Li Chengqian was about to cry.

"That's right, just listen to me, what nonsense are you talking about" Wu Yuanqing blamed,

"Your sister" Li Chengqian just said two words, and when he saw that Wu Yuanqing was about to speak again, he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Don't don't, don't don't, it's not your sister, it's not your sister, let's not mention this stubble." Tell me how to get it."

"Go, find two bricks to come over, don't be big" Wu Yuanqing opened his mouth and instructed, and compared the size when he was finished.

Naturally, Li Chengqian didn't need to go to this kind of thing in person, and with a wave of his hand, the chamberlain ran to do it.

"By the way, get another thin wooden plank, and grab a handful of rice grains, and then take a basket too, and a thin thread for sewing clothes" Wu Yuanqing said a bunch of more, Li Chengqian waved his hand, and another chamberlain ran to do it.

After a while, the two attendants came back with their things.

Wu Yuanqing broke a branch the thickness of his little thumb from the tree on the side and handed it to Li Chengqian on the side: "You tie one end of that thread to this rope."

After explaining, Wu Yuanqing took out the dagger that never left his body and dug a small pit on the ground. The pit is not big, and it looks like two fists.

Then I put the two bricks on the top and compared them, the bricks were a bit big, so I carried the bricks to the side of the stone steps and knocked them off a small section.

He returned to the edge of the pit and gestured, nodded with satisfaction, and covered the small pit with two half-cut bricks side by side at equal distances, and one brick covered half of the pit.

After finishing the plank, he took the wooden board and cut down three pieces of different lengths, scraped them thin, which was the same thickness as an ice cream stick, and after meeting the requirements, Wu Yuanqing lifted one of the bricks from the middle and erected it.

Then place the long strip diagonally in the pit, a little distance from the pit, and place the upper end on top of the flat brick to expose a section, then pick up another shorter strip and let the lower part of the stick top of the strip expose the brick surface, and then carefully put the vertical brick down so that the upper part of it is against it.

Then balance the shortest strip of wood on the lower end of the longest strip deep into the pit, and the lower part of the brick that is placed diagonally.

In this way, the bricks that are laid down diagonally and the longest strip of wood, together with two strips of different lengths, form an unstable trapezoid.

Put rice grains in the pit, as long as the bird gets into it to eat, it will touch the two wooden strips on the bottom, no matter which one it touches, as long as you touch it with a little force, this crumbling trapezoidal shape will collapse, and the bricks that are tilted down will fall down and return to their original positions, covering the pit tightly.

The brick fell in the blink of an eye, and the birds inside naturally couldn't escape.

After doing it, Wu Yuanqing explained to Li Chengqian and Erya, who were watching but didn't understand.

"This pit is too small, can you catch the grunt worm?" Li Chengqian was very skeptical.

"Can't catch it," Wu Yuanqing said very directly.

"Then why are you doing this thing, just set it up" Li Chengqian was disappointed, and was ready to witness the miracle, but he was broken in the face by a fart.

"What's the hurry, this thing is used to catch sparrows" Wu Yuanqing smiled and pointed to the basket and the wooden stick in Li Chengqian's hand, and said, "These things are used to catch grunt insects."

"Oh, then you hurry up and get it," Li Chengqian urged.

"Got it, let's get it" It's easy to influence each other here, and Wu Yuanqing led the two to the other side.

Just as the three of them turned and walked away, a yellowing apricot fell from the dwarf apricot tree next to the trap.

After falling to the ground, he rolled a few times, and just fell into the trap.

Over there, the basket was set up, the rice grains were sprinkled, and Wu Yuanqing pulled the line and hid far behind the moon gate.

Half loud, no movement.

Li Chengqian looked at it, and the second girl pouted and looked at it.

Wu Yuanqing sat cross-legged on the ground and took a nap.

The sound of flapping wings was heard, and a small turtledove landed on the ground.

Coming, coming, Li Chengqian's excited heartbeat was pounding, and the palm of the hand holding the rope was full of sweat.

Cooing and pacing, pecking and pecking, and suddenly, its eyes looked in one direction and did not move.

After looking at it for a while, the little head slowly deviated from side to side twice, and began to pace again, but if you look closely, you will find that it is walking very purposefully, and it is all going around in one direction.

And that direction is the basket and the rice grains at the bottom.

Two steps,

Three steps,

As he got closer, Li Chengqian's heart became more and more nervous.

in.

The goo worm finally cautiously walked under the basket, and Li Chengqian was so excited that he almost didn't shout, but fortunately, he still knew what he was doing.

The goo worm carefully lowered his head and stretched his neck to peck at the rice grains, but the half-pulled ass was still outside and did not come in, and his eyes were dripping, ready to slip away if something was wrong.

Li Chengqian swallowed secretly, his eyes staring at the cooing worm, not daring to slack off.

Seeing that the whole body of the goo worm went under the basket, but Li Chengqian didn't pull the rope, he wanted to wait a little longer, and wait for the goo worm to eat two more bites and completely let down his vigilance before pulling.

Just when he was staring intently, there was a muffled sound, but to Li Chengqian's ears, it was like a thunderbolt.

Li Chengqian's hands trembled and pulled the rope that had been tightened.

Haw, the second girl followed and sat on the ground.
