Chapter 18: The Thief Who Stole the Orange

Assigned Chen Erniu, and instructed Chen An to stand farther away, Chen Ping held the dry mud and went around to the other side of the grass, which was the road to the depths of the ** mountain.

"Don't hide, I see you, come out." Brushing the dry mud in his hand, Chen Ping shouted, staring at the grass.

The position where Chen Ping was standing at this time was higher than the grave, a few feet higher than the grass, and his vision was wide, and he could see the figure lying on his stomach in the dead grass.

The man was huddled in the grass, not big, the same as Chen Ping's own, the color of the linen cloth was similar to the withered grass, but unfortunately the grass was not deep enough to cover his entire body.

The position of the human head moved, and a few sounds came from Suosuo, chewing something.

In such an environment, it is really a little scary, Chen Ping looked up at the sun in the sky, thinking that even if there is a ghost, it will not come out, and there should be people in the grass, and his heart is a little calmer.

Chen Ping raised his arm, and the dry mud in his hand was thrown out, four or five meters away, right on the back of the figure in the grass: "Don't come out yet?" ”

This time, Chen Ping exerted some force, and the crackling sound of dry mud deformed and stuck to the linen clothes, and the people in the grass screamed, and rushed towards Chen Ping.

Chen Ping moved his position and blocked his way into the mountain. As seen before, the man was not very old, he had not combed his hair in a bun, he had a handful of hair on his forehead, and in his left hand he held a gray fat rabbit, and the hare had blood on his head, and in his right hand he stuffed half an orange with the flesh of the belt into his mouth, and then touched it into the cloth bag hanging on his waist.

"Give back my mother's oranges." Chen Erniu shouted, rushed over, and only took two steps into the grass, and a dog ate feces and planted it in the grass.

A few strands of grass in the grass were knotted, and they were connected to form a tripline.

"You monkey, eat me." Chen An screamed, followed the example of the eldest brother, picked up a piece of dry mud and threw it out, but unfortunately the strength was a little worse than the quasi-head, and the dry mud fell on the back of Chen Erniu's head.

"Erniu hurry up, the orange thief is going to run away." Chen An blinked his eyes, wiped his hands, and stood behind Chen Erniu, "This person stole your mother's orange, and he actually smashed you and beat him just now." ”

A pair of small eyes stared at the hare, and Chen An wanted to eat meat.

"Get out of the way." Holding the rabbit and putting one hand on his waist, the orange thief squirted out two points of orange juice and glared at Chen Ping.

Chen Ping didn't move, jokes, how could he be scared away by a little kid. However, when he saw the orange thief's right hand that had been placed in the cloth bag exposed, with an egg-sized pebble in the palm of his hand, Chen Ping was vigilant and pounced first.

The right hand on the opposite side was already raised, and a pebble was thrown out of Chen Ping's chest.

Smooth and skillful, the pebbles make a nice arc.

"Shhhh

Instinctively, he blocked it with his hand, and there was pain in his arm, which hit him right on the bone.

"It fucking hurts." Chen Ping scolded, pounced on the orange thief, ripped off the cloth bag on his waist, and threw it out, "Your grandma's, can't you be light?" Yes? ”

The orange thief let go of the hare, hugged Chen Ping's waist with both hands, and hit the door of the head against the door of the head.

"Bang."

The head struck, the force was not light, Chen Ping was dizzy for a moment, and when he saw the orange thief open his mouth and bite his arm, he immediately adjusted his posture, grabbed his neck with his hand, and pressed the orange thief's head into the weeds.

The orange thief twisted twice, and the force was quite strong, but fortunately, the strength of Chen Ping's hand was not small, and he cut his arm and didn't let him get up.

"Let go of me." The orange thief spat out the weeds in his mouth, tilted his head, and yelled.

"You stole oranges and smashed my arm, why do you think I let you go?" Chen Ping's arm was still aching, it should be green.

A pebble the size of an egg can have so much force. Chen Ping looked at the orange thief's arm, it was quite thin, except that it was a little darker, there was nothing unusual.

"yes, why did you steal my mother's oranges?" Chen Erniu walked over, rummaging through the clothes of the orange thief, but there was nothing, "Where's the orange?" Where did you put my mother's oranges? ”

"Eat." Justified, he spat as he spoke, mixed with unchewed orange peel.

"That's my mother's, why are you eating?" Chen Erniu grabbed a handful of hair from the orange thief, "My mother hasn't eaten oranges for a long time, don't you know?" ”

"Eating is eating, who told you to put it there." The orange thief gritted his teeth and glared at Chen Erniu, "Don't grab my hair, or I'll beat you." ”

"You ate my mother's oranges, I'm going to beat you." Chen Erniu grabbed the handful of hair tightly, and his eyes were also round.

Chen An was on the side, stepping on the hare, turning over the cloth bag, muttering a few words, pouring out the pebbles, and stuffing the cloth bag into his own pocket, just when he saw Chen Erniu's bulging eyes, he was so frightened that he patted his chest twice: "It's okay, it's okay, I didn't eat Erniuniang's oranges." ”

"Little thief, if you steal something, you have to pay it back. The rabbit is ours. Chen An went over, shook the hare in his hand, and then said to Chen Erniu, "Erniu, wait until I go back and give you a rabbit leg." ”

"Okay." Chen Erniu agreed.

"This rabbit is mine, you can't take it." The orange thief shouted, and his body swayed again, shaking Chen Ping.

"Don't move, your hand will break if you move again." Chen Ping's hand loosened and reminded.

The orange thief was still bending his arms, his face flushed from the pain, and he was humming, but even so, he was still gritting his teeth and bending.

"I'm really scared of you." So self-harming, Chen Ping had to let go of his hand.

The orange thief freed his hand, and then quickly pounced on Chen Erniu, with his mouth open and red eyes, and his appearance shocked Chen Erniu to sit on the ground.

The hair was fluttering, and Chen Erniu was still holding a handful of hair in his hand.

Seeing that the orange thief was about to catch Chen Erniu, suddenly he stumbled, and the orange thief fell to the ground and smashed his head on Chen Erniu's leg.

"What are you doing? Come over and hold him down. Chen Ping hugged the leg of the orange thief and shouted at Chen Erniu and Chen An, "That rabbit is dead on the ground, and it can't run." ”

"Hold his hands and feet down, and don't let him move." Chen Ping took out the rope, commanded Chen Erniu and Chen An to suppress the orange thief, and then started to tie it up.

The autumn wind withered grass, the grave tombstone, Chen Ping and the three began the interrogation work.

"First, tell me your name." Chen Ping rubbed the bruises on his arms while saying to the orange thief, and after a while, seeing that he didn't speak, he brought the hare in front of his eyes, "This is what you hit?" Yes, it's fat, and if you don't say anything more, the three of us will take the rabbit away. As for you, stay here for the night. ”

The hare is indeed very fat, there is a blood pit on the door of the head, the skin is broken, and a lot of rabbit hair has fallen off in other places on the body, and it still has some weight in the hand.

"You gave me back the rabbit when I told me?" The orange thief raised his head, with blood stains on his mouth, it was his own, and Chen Erniu's leg was almost damaged.

Chen Ping glanced at Chen Erniu's torn trouser leg, shook a glance at the hare, and nodded, "I will definitely return it to you." ”

"Come to Pingdong." The orange thief reported three words, "Now you can give me back the rabbit?" That's what I hit. ”

Come to Pingdong, the surname comes, ** The surname near the mountain is mostly from Xiatu Village, this little hunter is from Xiatu Village?

"Don't worry, I'll find out first. How old are you and where do you live? "If there is a table, there is a pen, a stool, and paper, which is the fan who interrogates the prisoner, Chen Ping is a little addicted.

I'm used to bullying Chen An all day long, but I didn't want to fall into this problem, hey...... Chen Ping sighed, it is addictive, and bullying people will also be addictive.

"Yes, be honest, be lenient in your confession, and be strict in your resistance." Chen An also found a cork bar from somewhere, hit it in the void, and a few words popped out, and his brows were twisted together.

"Nima's, I don't know a few words, but I remember them all." Chen Ping had a few black lines in his head, and coughed, "Well, Xiao Anzi is right, explain honestly, we can decide whether to let you go or not." After all, you stole Erniu's oranges. “

"It's my mother's orange." Chen Erniu corrected, "He also bit my pants." ”

"A native of Xiatu Village, he is twelve years old this year."

"Well, it's a year older than me." Chen Ping nodded, "Profession." ”

Lai Pingdong looked at Chen Ping suspiciously, Chen Ping suddenly changed his words: "I just asked you what you do." ”

"Hunter." Lai Pingdong raised his head.

"Then why did you come to this graveyard to steal oranges?" Chen Ping's words made Lai Pingdong's high head lower.

Mixed with the oranges that were about to be offered on the grave, this hunter was indeed a little miserable.

"He put it there, I just picked it up." Lai Pingdong didn't recognize that it was stealing, so he stretched his neck and said, "I chased the rabbit here, and I saw two oranges on the ground, and I was hungry, so I took it." ”

"The hare fell to the ground, so can I just take it home and say it's mine?" Chen Ping pointed to the hare on the ground and said, "You don't tell you about it, do you know?" This orange belongs to Erniu, no matter where it is placed, it is his. ”

Chen An lifted the hare on the ground and made a gesture to leave.

"I'll pay it, it's not just two oranges, I'll pay you for it." Come to Heitokyu.

"What compensation?" Chen Ping swept Pingdong, there was no valuable object in the whole body, and the technology of selling kidneys in this era was immature, so it was a little difficult to do.

Chen An lifted the hare and swayed it in front of Chen Ping, and Lai Pingdong gritted his teeth and was silent for a long time.

"Are you familiar with the mountain?" Chen Ping asked, pushing Chen An away with one hand.

"I went into the mountains alone when I was six years old." Laiping East Road.

**The mountain is not a tourist attraction for later generations, there are repaired routes. This place is not only small prey such as rabbits and pheasants, but also wild boars and jackals, and even the tigers and leopards have been seen.

I entered the mountain at the age of six, and it has been five or six years now, and I am really lucky not to be taken away.

"You don't want the oranges back." Chen Ping thought for a moment and said, "But you have to promise me one thing." ”

"What's the matter?" Lai Pingdong asked.

"Do you enjoy being tied up? Don't worry, wait until I untie the ropes, and we'll talk about it. Chen Ping smiled, and gently pulled the rope, and the tight rope was immediately released.

The rope was tied strongly, and several red lines were tied around Pingdong's arms and neck.

"You should know where there is a lot of prey in the mountains, right?" Lai Pingdong was just moving his hands and feet, and he didn't want to run away or fight back, Chen Ping's clenched fists relaxed.

"Of course." Lai Pingdong touched his hair, his scalp hurt a little, and looked at Chen Erniu, Chen Erniu was also not stunned, and it seemed that he was about to scuffle in one place again.

took the cloth bag from Chen An's waist, picked up the pebbles on the ground, kneaded them with his fingers, and rubbed the stones: "You just rely on pebbles to hunt?" ”

This pebble hanging on the body is definitely not an ornament, and it will not be to come to Pingdong to guard against Chen Ping and the others, plus the scars on the hare's body, as well as the skill of throwing stones in Pingdong just now, it is easy to guess.
