More than 500 years ago, in a small mountain village, a dirty pastoral dog was lying on the ground leisurely watching the children in the village play.

It itself felt the beauty of this life, because its little master was among the little ones.

The little owner, a little girl of five or six years old, smiled and waved at the dog when she saw that the dog was looking at her.

Although it is a stray dog, as a dog, its greatest happiness is to be able to protect its owner.

Seeing that the pastoral dog had been lying there resting, the little girl ran over.

"Datu, get up and play with me!" The little girl hugged the neck of the country dog and coquettished the country dog, not caring about the mess on its body.

Datu is the name of this pastoral dog, and this name is given by the little girl.

The little host was so annoying, every time.

Although Datu thought so in his heart, he still got up and picked up the little girl.

And there was some excitement in its eyes.

Datu is not big, but he can barely carry a five or six-year-old girl.

It wants to play with the little master.

Datu carried the little girl on his back and ran over to the children.

A smile appeared on the little girl's innocent face.

The children saw the earth running towards them, and they scattered at once.

"Run! This dog is so dirty and smelly! ”

The kids don't want to play with Datu.

The earth suddenly became stuffy, and his running slowed down.

"You guys really are! Datu is a good boy! The little girl pouted, very angry.

"Datu, run! We play on our own! The little girl hugged Datu's neck and said with a smile.

Datu was immediately invigorated.

"Wow!"

Datu shouted excitedly and ran quickly.

For it, it is enough to have a small owner!

It kept an eye on the little girl as it ran, for fear that she would fall off unsteadily.

"Wow! The earth is fast! The little girl rubbed on Da Tu's back: "I like Da Tu the most!" ”

"Wow!"

……

The little girl has also grown up, and the girl is already in her teens.

In these years, the girl always played with Datu, and even sometimes deliberately took out the meat that Datu loved to eat from her bowl to Datu, because Datu was not her own dog, so the little girl was often taught by her parents.

One day, the girl sat beside Da Tu picking wildflowers.

The girl had already woken a small wreath for Da Tu.

Datu felt especially happy with this colorful wreath.

The girl took advantage of Da Tu's inattention and tied a chain with a small sign around Da Tu's neck.

In the distance, a middle-aged man in a coat saw the little girl and Datu.

The middle-aged man's eyes are small, showing a cunning look from time to time, and the eight-character beard is plus the banner in his hand, this is a Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest stared at the earth for a long time and said, "Excellent material!" ”

The Taoist priest smiled hypocritically and asked the girl, "Little doll, where do you live?" ”

"We stayed in ...... What are you doing! As soon as the girl wanted to tell her village, Datu bit the corner of the girl's clothes and dragged the girl away.

Datu is very sensitive to human emotions, and it sensed the bad intentions of this Taoist priest, and quickly let the girl run away.

The Taoist priest looked at the village in the distance, rubbing his thumb against his index finger, as if thinking of some conspiracy.

……

A few days later, there was an inexplicable outbreak of plague in the village.

The girl was also unconscious.

The girl's mother was crying outside, but she didn't dare to come near the girl.

Only Datu didn't care about these at all, and firmly stayed by the girl's side.

It didn't know why the girl was unconscious, but it was right next to her and waiting for her to wake up.

It was very noisy outside the house.

"Master, Master, save us!" The girl's father's voice was urgent.

"Yes! Oh, yes! Please, Master! The villagers said the same.

A lot of people have died in the village.

If Datu came out and saw this Taoist priest, he would know that this was the Taoist priest a few days ago.

"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry...... Taoist priest closed his eyes, as if he was divining, muttered to himself, and finally opened his eyes.

"This plague is because there is dirt in your village!" The Taoist priest squinted his eyes and said.

"Dirty!" The villagers screamed.

For such an ordinary closed small village, the things of gods and ghosts are very terrifying.

The villagers have never seen demons and monsters, and they generally avoid them when they hear them.

"Ask the master to save us, the Taoist priest can do anything!" The girl's father knelt down for the Taoist priest.

The villagers also knelt down.

"What are you doing here, please get up!" The Taoist priest helped up the kneeling people: "I am a decent family, helping the people, it is my duty to eliminate demons and exorcise demons, why ask for it!" ”

"Master Xie, Master is as kind as a mountain!"

"Master Xie!"

“……”

The Taoist priest's face showed a look of triumph.

The Taoist priest closed his eyes and seemed to mumble to the girl's father.

"This filthy thing is the pastoral dog in your village, it is the embodiment of the monster, and this plague is caused by it!"

"What! Big earth! The girl's father exclaimed, "I knew this dog wasn't a good thing!" My daughter stays with it all day before she gets unconscious! ”

"There can be no mistake, if you want to get rid of the plague, you must bury this pastoral dog in the earth, expose only one head, and put it in a place where it can't reach the pastoral dog's favorite food."

"For the sake of the lives of the whole village, you can do what the master says!" The villagers persuaded the girl's father.

"I said this dog shouldn't have been allowed to live in our village in the first place! Something is wrong now! ”

The girl's father looked at the sleeping girl in the house and made up his mind and said, "Okay! Everything is up to the masters! ”

……

The soil was forcibly tied up and carried out by the villagers.

The villagers carried the soil and said with disgust: "This dog is a bad thing at first glance!" ”

Although I don't know why, Datu felt that the Taoist priest had bad intentions when he saw it, but it was just a pastoral dog and had no way to resist.

"Woohoo!"

Datu yelled at the Taoist priest.

"Master, just do this, and my daughter will wake up, right?" The girl's father looked at the Taoist priest with hopeful eyes.

Oh! As long as this is done, the little master can wake up.

Datu listened to them, and it didn't resist for the sake of the little master.

Soon after, the earth was buried in the soil, leaving only one head to move, and the body was pressed tightly by the earth.

Next to it was a large knife and a plate of fragrant meat.

For the sake of his little master, Datu endured not to eat the plate of meat.

I'm afraid that what I'm doing is wrong will cause the little master to not wake up.
