Section 78 Selling and Establishing (II)
Shen Mo looked up at Luo Wang, then looked at the sky that was about to fall westward, and shouted: "Chase!" These birds can't fly! So he and his eldest son chased him out.
Shen Jing was puzzled, but the two of them had already run away, so they had to pant and follow behind.
While staring at the whereabouts of the net, they chased along the river, and after running for a quarter of an hour, they gradually reached a densely populated place, but they still did not catch up.
Fishing boats are moored all over the river. The people who packed up the fishing gear on the boat saw three half-sized men with bare feet and short clothes and shorts, chasing the bird nets in the sky.
This is really a landscape, people have stopped their work, watched them run into the distance, and did not forget to laugh at two sentences: "It is really three heads of the world, birds fly in the sky, people run on the ground, how can they catch up?" Shen Mo ignored it, still chased forward with all his might, and the eldest son followed without saying a word, and also did not mean to stop.
Shen Jing desperately caught up, panting and sweating profusely: "I said, let's not chase, let's make people laugh like a fool, let's take a break!" ”
Shen Mo stood with his waist crossed for a while, and he was also out of breath and said, "No! Can't rest, run a little longer. You can catch up. After speaking, he continued to run forward, the eldest son continued to follow, Shen Jing cursed a few vaguely, and had to follow.
After a while, the sun set, the sky was full of red glow, and the sky was a magnificent purple red, which made people's hearts palpitate.
Just when Shen Jing was exhausted and yelled, 'Kill me and don't chase me'. The net flying in the sky suddenly stopped in mid-air. Gradually, the whole net fell from the sky reluctantly...... Although the speed of descent is extremely slow, anyone can tell that these birds cannot fly.
Shen Mo was very happy, and he laughed and said, "How is it? I said I could catch up, right? ”
Shen Jing was very surprised and said, "How do you know that the bird net will fall?" ”
Shen Mo pointed to the sky and said, "You want the sun to go down in the west, and when night falls, these birds will all return to their nests." But they are not in a group, some of them are in the woods, some are in the eaves, and some of them have to soar back to the cliffs. So it is impossible for them to fly in one direction all the time, and once it is time to return home, some will fly east and some west. The direction is chaotic, the mess is in a mess, and one by one is exhausted, and the whole bird net will naturally fall down. ”
Shen Jing's admired five-body threw himself to the ground, and he just wanted to search his intestines and scrape his belly to praise Shen Mo, but he heard the eldest son suddenly shout: "Oh no, they are going to fall into the river." "If you drown a bird, it's worthless.
Before he could finish speaking, the eldest son jumped into the river. Shen Mo didn't want to chase the results of a long time, and finally had to soak in the soup, so he took out the two oiled paper belts from his arms, threw them to Shen Jing, and jumped down. How can a child who grew up in a water town not know water?
Shen Jing also wanted to go into the water, but was forcibly turned into a document keeper by Shen Mo, so he had to stand on the shore and mutter, "You always bully me." ”
Shen Mo and the eldest son, Shui, were both very good, swam to the middle of the water, and waited for the birds to fall completely.
Seeing that the bird net was getting lower and lower, and it was about to reach in time, he suddenly heard Shen Jing on the shore shouting: "Be careful, there is a ship coming from the east!" ”
The two of them quickly turned their heads to look, and sure enough, they saw a big boat going down the river from the upstream, at this time the sunset was like blood, and the river was sparkling with gold, and the people on the boat obviously did not see the people in the water earlier.
Before they could make a sound, the two of them dodged to each side like frightened fish, narrowly avoiding the oncoming clipper.
At that moment, the net finally fell, and with a click, it fell on the deck of the ship, followed by a low cry......
'Our birds will be deceived by them.' As soon as he got out of danger, Silence thought. Then he swam over, jumped out of the side of the boat, and threw his arm on the deck, shook the water above his head, and exclaimed, "Down there's a ...... of the bird that came to me," and looked around for his bird.
Before he saw the bird, he saw a woman wearing a pale green dress, with an elegant and beautiful appearance, like a dewy, sitting behind a seven-string guqin, holding her heart in both hands, looking at Shen Mo with a surprised face.
As soon as he saw this woman, Shen Mo immediately forgot about his bird, and a line of beautiful and refined verses came to his heart...... The empty pool is spring, and the ancient mirror shines on the gods. Gaze at the stars, sing and ghost. Flowing water is said today, the predecessor of the bright moon.
He looked at the woman, and the woman looked at the silence, and in the woman's deep pool-like eyes, there was a moment of fear, then surprise, and finally a look of disbelief.
At this time, a pretty maid led a few bodyguard-like guys to run over from the cabin, and when she saw that a thief dared to harass her own lady, the maid was furious and said coquettishly: "Take it for me!" ”
The bodyguards pounced on them with their teeth and claws, but before they ran two steps, the maid who gave the order said again: "Stand down." "The bodyguards almost fell into the water, and one guy even flashed his waist.
But Sister Picture Screen is the biggest, and they had to stop, staring at Shen Mo with fire-breathing eyes.
Silence had already set his eyes on his bird, and it turned out that the net was falling at the feet of the young lady.
Although the girl is beautiful, she is not her own, so she still wants the bird back. Silent is disheveled, and it is not easy to get on other people's boats, and it seems that he still has the sin of reckless collision, which is not good for attracting material discussions.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Shen Mo saw an acquaintance leading the group of bodyguards out, and his heart was relieved, knowing that it was okay. He sneered and said, "Sister Painting, I have always been taken care of, and I can't repay it." Give your lady a pocket of precious birds as a thank you gift. Without waiting for the screen to speak, he turned over and plunged into the water, disappearing into the deep twilight of the river.
The painting screen stared blankly at the gradually dissipating ripples, and was a little stupid for a while.
