Uncle Wu gently closed the door, adjusted the straw hat he was wearing on his head, and looked at the sky, which was just bright. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info whistled, and a big dog wagged its tail and ran over, gray, and couldn't tell that it was originally a yellow dog. Uncle Wu patted the big dog's head, picked up the firewood knife standing by the door with the other hand and pinned it to his waist, and put the straw rope on his shoulder, and then said: "Rhubarb, walk!" ”

Walking all the way to the entrance of the village, Uncle Wu greeted the people on both sides of the road with a smile. The village is not big, and there are more than 20 families, everyone knows each other, and they are all acquaintances.

Leaving the village to the south, a few miles into the mountains. Rhubarb looked very excited, running around in front of and behind Uncle Wu, and he didn't shout, just pure noise. Uncle Wu looked at it with a smile and ignored it. This dog has been raised for several years, and it has always been so cheerful, there is nothing to worry about.

Uncle Wu is not short, he looks more than seven feet. Not thin, although he is close to the sixtieth year, he is very strong, but his legs and feet are a little inflexible. In the early years, he joined the army, and he fought a lot of battles and did not become an official, and he had the kung fu in his hands, and he was not proficient, otherwise he would not have been slashed in the leg in Luoyang later. It is said that if it weren't for that knife, Uncle Wu might have become an official, no matter how bad he was, he would be a centurion, and the lowest person who survived that battle was a centurion. It's a pity that time is also fate, and this knife ruined Uncle Wu's official career.

I never regretted it, my life was almost gone, I just wanted to live.

The treatment of the soldiers is good, and Uncle Wu, who returned to his hometown, has a few pieces of money, all of which have been accumulated over the years, but it is enough to live. married a wife in the early years, but unfortunately he basically fought outside all year round, so he had no descendants. The daughter-in-law didn't say anything, so she waited for Uncle Wu to come back, and the two of them lived peacefully for a few years. Uncle Wu also felt sorry for his daughter-in-law, but there was nothing he could do. At this age, where do you need to have a child?

The family has a field, just more than one acre, and the field tax is just enough for the old couple to live. However, there is not so much work in the fields in this summer, so Uncle Wu goes into the mountains every day to chop firewood, pick wild vegetables, and bring rhubarb to see if he can meet rabbits and pheasants or something, which can also improve his life. Although he didn't bring a bow and arrows, with decades of effort, a firewood knife would not let the rabbit run away. Besides, rhubarb is not a stupid dog who eats and doesn't work.

There are a lot of mosquitoes in the mountains, but it is not morning, and Uncle Wu is not covered so tightly, and there is a shoulder on the upper body, but the lower body does not show a piece of meat. This is experience, the eyes are to see the road, but the danger often comes from the feet, being bitten by a snake or something will be fatal, no matter how thin the pants are, you can block it, and you can save your life if you can't keep it.

The mountain treasures are in the depths, the firewood is at the foot of the mountain, and the mountain treasures are picked first and then the firewood is chopped, which is the habit of Uncle Wu. In the summer, the grass and trees in the mountains and forests are luxuriant, and the road that was just opened a few days ago will not be able to walk in two days, so I can't be idle in my hands, so I have to use a firewood knife to open a road. Fortunately, there are not many such places, and most places can still be walked.

He took out a cloth bag from his bosom and threw a few handfuls of wild vegetables into it. Walking deeper, Uncle Wu's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he bent down and smiled and picked off the fungus on a piece of horizontal wood on the ground. The cloth bag in his hand was almost full.

Uncle Wu also wanted to walk more in the forest to see if he could touch rabbits and pheasants and other living creatures. If you don't eat meat at home for a few days, you're hungry. However, I don't know why, I have been walking in the mountains for a long time, and I have not seen a single living thing, not even a bird. Uncle Wu only felt that something was wrong in his heart, but there seemed to be a voice urging him to go inside, and if he walked again, he would definitely gain something.

It's a strange feeling, and I can't say what it is. Uncle Wu walked into the mountain for a long time, and finally stopped, clenched the firewood knife in his hand, and looked around vigilantly. I don't know how to go, but I ran to a place I've never been before. There are two big trees on the left and right in front of them, surrounded by five or six people, and the branches are luxuriant, covering the sun tightly. The distance between the trees was wide, and there were not many shrubs on the ground, just some grass, which was still wilting. When I looked at it, it seemed to be foggy, and it was dim and not very real. But it's quiet, and it's really scary.

"Wang! Prosperous! ”

A shadow flashed, and Rhubarb screamed and ran out, running into the fog with a puff of smoke. This fog is really strange, only three or two steps into the rhubarb, Uncle Wu can't see the shadow of the rhubarb. After scolding a few words, Uncle Wu had to follow Rhubarb and rush in. This dog has been raised for many years, but it is being raised as a son, and he has to find it back if he says anything.

"Rhubarb! Rheum! Come out! Uncle Wu shouted in his mouth, still holding a firewood knife in his hand. When I got into the fog, I found that I couldn't even see what was in front of me, and I didn't know what was in front of me. Fortunately, the rhubarb's cry kept coming, and it didn't get lost. Follow the direction of the sound, step by step. I didn't dare to take too many steps, Uncle Wu knew it, this situation can't be stupid and stride over, who knows what is under your feet, if there is a big pit and you fall in the air, you can give your life here.

Uncle Wu didn't realize that he was going around in circles, but he couldn't get out of the fog after walking for a long time. Rhubarb's voice was still coming intermittently, but it was getting quieter and quieter. Uncle Wu's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he knew that he had planted it this time. This hellish place is very evil, except for the dog's barking and his own panting from time to time, it can be said that it is frighteningly quiet. After walking for half a day, I still know where I am, and I can't find my way back. There is no other way but to keep going.

I can't remember how long I walked, but gradually the cry of rhubarb became clearer and clearer, and the fog became lighter and lighter, but Uncle Wu's heart tightened even tighter. Suddenly, my eyes lit up, and I saw two huge trees. This time it was different, the two trees were one in front of the other, and at first glance they looked like a wall, and there was nothing behind the trees that could not be seen at all. Uncle Wu tightened the firewood knife in his hand and carefully bypassed the first tree, only to find that there was a tree of average size behind the second tree. Although I felt that it was inappropriate in my heart, I could only continue to circulate, and the cry of rhubarb became clearer and clearer, and it was not far away.

After going around nine trees in a row, Uncle Wu finally saw the rhubarb. didn't care about anything else, and immediately shouted, but Rhubarb didn't react, still shouting loudly in one direction. It's the first time Uncle Wu has seen rhubarb like this, the hair on his body is propped up, and his teeth are grinning.

"Oh my God!"

Uncle Wu looked in the direction of rhubarb and was immediately startled. I saw a small stone mountain blocking the front, not high, but just blocking the view, and I couldn't see a trace of the scene behind the mountain. There seems to be a spring in the mountain, and it is like a stream behind the mountain, and several streams of water hang down to form several small waterfalls. One in the middle is very wide, and the other is narrow, like a jade belt, falling on the mountain rocks, and the sound is very good.

There is a waterhole at the foot of the mountain, which is not big, a few zhang square. The water is so clear that from a distance it looks like there is a mountain in the water. There are many flowers on the edge of the pool, white and pink, but they can't be named. There were two more white cranes on the side of the tan, both standing on one foot, but with their heads bowed, towards the position in the center of the pool.

Uncle Wu ignored the two white cranes, dragged the rhubarb, put the firewood knife horizontally in front of him, and cautiously looked at the figure on the mountain. It was a snow-white giant tiger, two feet long, the black-brown "king" clasped his forehead, and a pair of copper-bell-sized eyes were wide open, flashing with a thick fierce light.

Suddenly, the giant tiger stood up, jumped twice on the mountain rock, and landed in front of Uncle Wu. Uncle Wu remained motionless, for fear of provoking this fierce beast. But the giant tiger didn't seem to hurt him, but circled around Uncle Wu twice, and at the end he bared his mouth at the rhubarb, which made the rhubarb tremble and immediately collapsed to the ground. The giant tiger smiled as if he had seen something interesting.

Yes, laugh! Uncle Wu swore that he was not mistaken, the giant tiger really laughed!

The giant tiger shook his head, and with a steel whip-like tail, he swept away the firewood knife in Uncle Wu's hand, and then turned around and walked towards the waterhole. Uncle Wu didn't dare to move, how could he dare to move without a firewood knife? The giant tiger didn't take two steps, turned around again, and yelled at Uncle Wu, which was very low, but even more infiltrating. Uncle Wu was stunned, how could he react, he still stood still. Seeing that Uncle Wu didn't move, the giant tiger roared twice, then shook his head and walked over to Uncle Wu again.

With his head arched at the back of Uncle Wu, he had a lot of strength, and Uncle Wu unconsciously took two steps forward, but his heart was completely cold. The machine turned its head to look at the giant tiger, but the giant tiger walked forward and let out another low roar. Uncle Wu didn't react, and the giant tiger roared again after taking two steps, which was a little understood.

"You want me to follow you?" Uncle Wu asked tentatively, but the giant tiger seemed to understand, nodded very humanely, and then took two steps forward, turned his head, and roared. Uncle Wu really understood this time, but his heart was full of surprise. I didn't dare to resist the meaning of the giant tiger, and followed step by step.

The giant tiger turned back in two steps, and Uncle Wu also stopped in two steps, and the tiger and one person came to the side of the waterhole like this. When he arrived at the edge of the pool, the giant tiger flashed to the side, and Uncle Wu was shocked again.

There's one more person in this pool!

His face was white, his clothes were tattered, his shoes were strange, his hair was very short, he looked like he was thirteen or fourteen years old, lying on his back in the middle of a pool, his eyes closed, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. Uncle Wu glanced at the child in the pool, and then looked at the giant tiger beside him, but saw the giant tiger's tail sweep, and Uncle Wu unconsciously went into the pool.

I want to save the kid myself!

Uncle Wu's water nature is quite good, but it is enough to save the child, not to mention that the waterhole is not deep, and the child was dragged ashore after a while. touched his neck, probed his nose, and was still alive, Uncle Wu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. looked to the side again, but saw that the giant tiger had already fallen down, first arched Uncle Wu, and then arched the child. This time, Uncle Wu understood, and put the child on the back of the giant tiger, and straightened it up again, so as not to fall off.

roared, ignoring Uncle Wu, the giant tiger carried the child on his head and walked out. Seeing this, Uncle Wu hurriedly picked up the firewood knife on the ground, kicked the rhubarb who was still limp on the ground, and saw the rhubarb stand up, so he stepped to follow. I didn't want to take two steps, and I was pulled down again. When I looked back, it was the two white cranes. The white crane grabbed Uncle Wu with his foot and let him go, flapping his wings and following the giant tiger. Uncle Wu was still stunned, and his eyes swept to the ground only to find that there was a strange-looking bag on the ground at some point. The bag is not big, black, with a little red on it, I picked it up and looked at it, I don't know how to open it, I simply carried it in my hand, and the left and right sides were not heavy, and it didn't take much effort.

The giant tiger walked in front, Uncle Wu and Rhubarb walked in the middle, and the two white cranes flew up and landed at the end, this strange combination did not make a sound, quietly bypassed the nine giant trees, and passed through the thick fog. When he reached the two giant trees facing each other, the giant tiger stopped.

Slowly lying down, he yelled at Uncle Wu, and Uncle Wu hurriedly stepped forward and hugged the child down. The giant tiger rolled and stood up from the ground, but did not move, but stood in place. Uncle Wu looked at it for a long time, and then understood, raised his hand and carried the child behind him, called rhubarb in a low voice, and walked along the way down the mountain.

Not far away, he suddenly heard a tiger's roar that shook the sky, and Uncle Wu suddenly turned around, but saw countless beasts appear behind him at some point. There were bears, deer, wild boars, rabbits, foxes, and countless birds, and countless birds that landed on the trees, chirping and chirping. Just as a white giant tiger roared in the sky, a pair of white cranes danced in the air, with extraordinary momentum and beauty.

Uncle Wu was so shocked that he didn't know what to say, but he sighed slightly, helped the child on his back again, and went down the mountain.
