Master Wen, as Zhong Tianyi's full-time teacher, is usually very idle, and he hasn't even felt too tired with Professor Qi Ziqiang recently, anyway, the parents of the two children don't care much about what they can learn, and there is no pressure at work.

Recently, it was Lao Wu who was troubled, and he had not returned for a long time, which made him play a small drum in his heart, Zhong Ye had no news for most of the year, which made him feel very unsteady. Although the two of them stayed with Zhong Tianyi, they didn't feel overkill, they couldn't show up outside at all now, and it was not a bad way to raise their minds in this small mountain village, and Lao Wu could also understand his martial arts with peace of mind, the two of them were actually quite happy, although sometimes it was a little boring, and they had nothing to do with it.

For the sake of safety, Zhong Qingxiang's contact with Happy Village relies on the people who support him to send back the news, and there is a total of one news in a year, and Zhong Qingxiang asked about Zhong Tianyi's recent situation during the New Year, and learned that it was not bad, and he didn't have a cold for half a year, Zhong Qingxiang was relieved, and then there was no news. Since the beginning of the summer, Master Wu has not been able to contact there, and there is no news of the contact person, Master Wen feels wrong, so he asked Master Wu to go out to inquire, and he has not returned to Master Wen for two or three months, but he does not dare to act rashly.

Master Wen's uneasiness had infected Fang Hong, and he was now eager to drive the remaining two away. He still knows more or less what Zhong Qingxiang does, he is a businessman on the surface, he has heard of what he is doing behind his back, no one has ever confirmed it, everyone is aware of it, the former fox friends and dog friends have secretly said a few words, and the deep one is gone, and the nature of being afraid of death makes him anxious, but he can't do anything.

At night, Master Wen always felt that there was movement outside, and alertly woke up Zhong Tianyi, asked him to get dressed, don't make a sound, Master Wen walked to the door in the dark and didn't see anyone, but the movement was getting closer and closer.

Fang Hong heard the movement and ran out to find out, there were only a few stars in the sky, it was dark outside, Fang Hong stood in the door and waited quietly for Master Wen, Master Wen stood at the door and found a covering position, held his breath, as if he was judging the source of the sound, Master Wen cautiously walked towards the sound step by step.

Suddenly, the lights in the stupid eight rooms turned on, and the sound of the stupid eight was angry and indistinct in the room.

Silly Eight came out of the house, took a flashlight, shone it on two bamboo baskets, kicked it twice, and entered the house again.

Fang Hong then remembered that Qi Ziqiang seemed to be in a trance and told him that she and Zhong Tianyi caught a few water rats today, and it was these rats who were making a monster, and there was a false alarm.

Master Wen put away the pistol in his hand, hurriedly came to Zhong Tianyi's room in a few steps, and told him to sleep, there was nothing wrong.

Zhong Tian stripped naked and went to sleep in a daze, and he was really a little tired from taking a shower during the day. Master Wen looked at Zhong Tianyi and immediately fell asleep again, sighed, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked at the sleeping Zhong Tianyi with a look of pity, this child is so well protected, what can I do in the future. Master Wen looked at the quilt that had been kicked open, raised his hand to cover Zhong Tianyi's stomach with the quilt, and turned back to his room.

Fang Hong returned to the house, sat on the edge of the kang and patted his chest, Emma, scared my father to death, how is this good.

The next day, Master Wen and Fang Hong sat at the dinner table with big dark circles under their eyes, looking at each other speechlessly, both of them wanted to say something, but they both wanted to say something.

Qi Ziqiang ran in from the back room sweating profusely, sitting on the table and about to eat, Fang Hong was worried in his heart, so he scolded Qi Ziqiang, "If you don't go out of the door every day, the window frames will make you step on them." Qi Ziqiang grinned, ignored him, picked up the porridge in the bowl, two mouthfuls of a bowl, not enough to serve the bowl again, just this small dish and ate two steamed buns for three nights of porridge, looked at the two people who were constipated, didn't say a word, and thought: The two are neurotic, as if they can't pull out the poop when they sit there.

"Zhong Tianyi, get up, I'll go to the field to catch toads in a while, after a few days of school holidays, it's not easy to catch them, hurry up."

Master Wen was not in a good mood, and looked at Qi Ziqiang, who was in a happy mood, and said, "I don't think about it one by one, what do you tell him to do, let him sleep again, don't make noise." ”

The person who Qi Ziqiang can tolerate is his own family, and in the past few years, with one Fang Hong, he will not be so polite to Master Wen, and replied, "Your family, what is my quarrel, just stay if you want, who cares!" ”

The choked Master Wen couldn't say a word.

Fang Hong looked at it, Wen Shi's face was red and his neck was thick, and he said, "Qiangzi, take Zhong Tianyi out to play, come back early, don't run far, and cause less trouble." Qi Ziqiang sneered, didn't continue to call Zhong Tianyi, and ran away.

Zhong Tian came out of the house in a daze, didn't look at Qi Ziqiang, and hurriedly asked, "Qiangzi, why didn't you wait for me." ”

"One by one, I've been elsewhere in the past two days, stay at home, you have to keep up with your cultural classes, and Hadron is better than you in learning." Master Wen persuaded bitterly.

"Whoever is willing to learn learns, I am going to catch a toad with a strong son today, I want to eat the toad's thighs." After speaking, he didn't care about the red face of the master, and ran away without combing his head or washing his face.

When there were only two people left, Fang Hong and Master Wen were left, Fang Hong lowered his face and said, "Qiangzi is not you, speak politely, your family is a baby, and other people's families are all dirty, there is no Zhong Ye here." Fang Hong dropped his chopsticks and left.

Master Wen sat there alone, not knowing what to do.

The rice fields in Xingfu Village are concentrated in the east, and there is a branch of the Stone River here, and the water is not big or small, just enough to irrigate the farmland. In the rice fields in summer, the endless green, you can hear the croaking of frogs from afar, one after another, on the muddy field road, Qi Ziqiang took off his shoes, and still held a wooden stick in his hand on the road, and an iron skewer was tied to the head of the wooden stick.

Before the dew dissipated, the moisture in the fields was soaked, and after a while, the edges of Qi Ziqiang's shorts were soaked, and several groups of villagers in the fields who were tending to the crops buried their heads in the weeds in the fields, and occasionally a few laughter came.

Qi Ziqiang likes this kind of tranquil and warm scene, every time he comes here, he spreads his legs and runs, splashing all the way to the muddy water, the anger just now is not finished, and now he smells the fragrance of rice, and the anger also disperses, grinning and running to the side of the well, where there are the most toads and the size is also big.

Happy village holds the light of the stone river, the rice fields in the dam can have a good harvest every year, there is no drought and flood disaster for decades, the rice fields of each family are not far from a canal, every other year the hard-working villagers will follow their own fields to clear the clear water canal, to ensure that the rice seedlings are not short of water, the well is actually the entrance of the stone river water into this field, the water here is slightly deeper, occasionally you can catch a few fish, and then go east to the stone river, where there are more fish, Qi Ziqiang from the snack fish a little enough, I don't like catching fish very much, so I like to prick toads.

There were a few small toads by the well, not knowing the danger coming, squatting by the water's edge and croaking, like a group of children that no one wanted, wild children.

As Qi Ziqiang's footsteps approached, a series of fluttering sounds sounded at the water's edge, and only trembling blades of grass remained at the water's edge.

The water was jumped by the toad, a little muddy, Qi Ziqiang was not in a hurry, found a dry place to sit down, checked the tools, well, are quite strong, watching the water gradually clear, stood up and looked at the water, raised the wooden stick in his hand, swished into the water, and then lifted the wooden stick, there was a four-legged toad hanging on it, this toad is as big as an adult's fist, and the momentum is not small, Qi Ziqiang picked up the toad down, fell heavily on the ground, and the toad did not struggle when he landed, only his hind legs remained, and he was unwilling to pump a few times.

Pierced a few, Qi Ziqiang felt that it was not enjoyable, jumped into the water, reached out to catch it, caught the small one, skimmed it casually, caught the big one, and fell to the ground, some of the vitality is tenacious and can be mixed with half dead, and some return to the west in the blink of an eye.

When Zhong Tianyi rushed over, Qi Ziqiang had already caught more than a dozen of them and packed them in plastic bags, so there would be half a pocket of toads.

"Why don't you wait for me?" Zhong Tian said half-complaining, half-coquettish.

"You can't catch it, I'm almost there, let's go back if we have enough to eat, go back and see what those rats look like." Qi Ziqiang didn't ignore Zhong Tianyi because of Master Wen, there was no need.

"I'll stick two of them and we'll go, what are we doing today?" Zhong Qianyi asked.

"I'll talk about it later, I'll want to go to the mountains later." Qi Ziqiang replied.

After the two bear children had harmed more than twenty toads, they walked towards Fang Hong's house with the bag.

Fang Hong didn't go anywhere at home today, Qi Ziqiang glanced at it curiously, turned around and went to find the two bamboo baskets yesterday, the four water rats were wilting, they didn't dare to jump, they shrank in the baskets, and they hugged in groups to keep warm.

"Haven't eaten this thing, steamed or stir-fried?" Qi Ziqiang said and looked at Zhong Qianyi, let him choose first, anyway, there are several.

"What?!" Zhong Tian was stunned, can he eat anything?

Zhong Tianyi ran into the house to find Fang Hong and said, "Uncle, you go and talk about Qiangzi, it looks good to catch those water rats yesterday, she wants to eat them." ”

Fang Hong was also startled when he heard it, can rats eat casually, there is plague, bacteria, you can't eat blindly, and you are busy at the door to find Qi Ziqiang.

"Qiangzi, rats can't be eaten." Fang Hong hurriedly said.

"This is a water rat, it looks different from the garden, and it can't be eaten." Qi Ziqiang tilted his head and asked.

"Can't eat, can't eat, can't eat。。。。。。"

"Then what are you doing with him, I'll fall to death later." Qi Ziqiang stretched out his hand to grab the mouse.

"You can't catch it with your hands." Fang Hong grabbed Qi Ziqiang's hand.

“？” Qi Ziqiang thought to himself, why?

"This water rat, you can sell it for money, wait for your uncle to find you a buyer, let's sell it and buy delicious food, okay?" Fang Hong said tightly.

"Why can't you sell it for money if you can't eat it?" In Qi Ziqiang's heart, only food and clothing are valuable.

"The skin of this thing is worth a lot." Fang Hong closed the lid of the basket tightly and dragged Qi Ziqiang into the house.

Zhong Tianyi heard it in the house, if he sold those rats, would it work, he still wanted to have pets, so he went into the house to find Master Wen.

Master Wen heard that Zhong Tianyi was going to raise rats, and his head shook like a rattle.

The four of them sat in the room staring at each other with no result, Qi Ziqiang felt annoyed, so he kicked the bamboo basket with his foot, "I can hear the sound of falling to death, grinding and chirping." Qi Ziqiang said impatiently.

In the end, the four rats still did not get rid of the fate of being trafficked, so they didn't have to be killed by the fall. Master Wen also had to compromise and let Zhong Tian raise a dog.

The next day, Fang Hong sold these rats for a thousand yuan. But there is a lot of money, and Mr. Wang's salary is now only more than 400 yuan a month. Fang Hong bought a small milk dog from the market for Zhong Tianyi.

Fang Hong gave Qi Ziqiang all the money from selling rats, Qi Ziqiang didn't want it, and said, "What do I want money for, I don't spend money, you can keep it." "If Mr. Wang hears this, he will definitely be angry, you don't spend money, you lose money, and you don't spend money on accidents all year round!

Qi Ziqiang really has no concept of money, this matter depends on Fang Hong, since Fang Hong knows that Qi Ziqiang is his little nobleman, he will make up for it if he has nothing to do, or he is carrying Qi Lao Si and his wife on his back, I don't know what he thinks, maybe he is afraid that Qi Lao Si and his wife will refuse. Qi Ziqiang is still young and has nothing to spend money on, he can basically be self-sufficient in eating, drinking and playing, and the fields and forests in Happy Village can almost meet most of Qi Ziqiang's needs. Occasionally eat a small stove Fang Hong can buy snacks according to Qi Ziqiang's taste, Qi Ziqiang doesn't like to wear it, and he can't wait to change a piece of clothing for a year. For her, money almost only exists in the mantra when his parents beat him: "This loser harms money every day." Qi Ziqiang also wondered, I didn't tear up the money and burn the money, what kind of scourge is the money? In line with the fine style of not fighting back, scolding and not returning the mouth, he didn't ask Qi Lao and his wife back, which caused Qi Ziqiang to have no desire for money.

"If you give it to you, you'll take it, what's the ink!" Fang Hong stuffed the money into Qi Ziqiang's hands, a hurdle vest and a boxer pants in the summer, but he couldn't find a pocket.

"I don't want this money, my mother should be angry, how can I ask you for money." After Qi Ziqiang finished speaking, he ran out to play.

Fang Hong looked at Qi Ziqiang, who regarded money as dung, and felt extremely cute, and still sent the money to Qi Lao and his family at night.

In the afternoon of this day, the sun was like a big baking tray, and everything was about to be cooked, without a trace of wind, panting seemed to be choking, Qi Ziqiang walked up the mountain alone, the mountains were much cooler than the mountains, but Qi Ziqiang was still soaked with sweat, and the small animals were startled by Qi Ziqiang and fled in a hurry.

Qi Ziqiang didn't kill those innocent little lives today, he ran towards his destination, and he didn't even give a single look to those little creatures in the mountains.

A bunch of small animals: Don't see us~

Not deep in the forest, there is a small mountain col, the circle of rules and regulations, naturally formed a small gossip array, Qi Ziqiang according to the method in the Fang family book, the two sides of the Qiankun pressure array, the earthquake position planted a small tree in the spring, put a small porcelain basin in the position, the whole formation is closed, four pieces of jade are placed in the four jade boxes, the array is in Xun, and the jade surrounds the Xun position.

The Fang family's way of raising jade is very simple, according to the increase, decrease, and decrease of the gossip array, Fang Cheng is a small formation, but the difficulty is that the people who arrange the formation must have the ability to be sensitive to the magnetic field, coincidentally, Qi Ziqiang can, Fang Hong's eighth uncle was also a master in this area, and his acuity was strong enough to arrange the formation at will, and the formed gossip array was directly formed into a formation without calculation, and the talent was extremely strong, but unfortunately he didn't realize that he could die in the air crash.

The Fang family carefully divided the formations into categories, most of them were small formations, the practicality was very strong, there were two large array deductions, Qi Ziqiang had not had time to study, those two books were a bit esoteric for Qi Ziqiang, look at those two books, to read and understand, the auxiliary tool books are not one or two, not to mention the detailed study of the classic books such as the Hetuluo book, Qi Ziqiang just feels that it is fun to study and study, only four or five, and it has to conform to Xiaoqingshan's magnetic aura. Formations can actually be seen everywhere, but there are good and bad ones, but most of them can only have good results in places where the spirit is clear, so Qi Ziqiang likes to look for some naturally formed small formations on Xiaoqingshan when he has nothing to do.

Whether the jade is raised well depends on whether the jade raiser can perceive whether the jade is full of aura, the time is short, the aura will slowly disappear with the formation, Qi Ziqiang's perception ability is not bad, but if you want to be fine, come and see, pinch this she still can't.

A few pieces of jade were almost on fire, Qi Ziqiang didn't hurry to go, sat in the shade of the tree and looked up at the towering tree overhead, the sun passed through the leaves, reflecting the mottled shadows on the ground, Qi Ziqiang lay comfortably on the ground.

In the quiet afternoon, a girl who seemed to be a teenager lay in the woods, sleeping comfortably.
