Chapter 14: The Vole Family

On the fourth day of heavy rain, the wounds of the two little parrots had been treated, and the small thin legs were wrapped in white gauze. At the moment they are lying in a nest, snuggling up to each other; The nest was covered with soft blankets, and they felt that this night was the most peaceful night in the bird's life.

Don't worry about being tied to your feet with a fishing line in the middle of the night, the more you struggle, the more painful it is; I don't have to worry about being forced to learn to speak, and if I can't say it, I will tear off a feather on my chest.

With nothing to do, Zhang Muqing prepared a small blackboard and prepared to teach lessons to the two guinea pigs.

On the first day of class, Zhang Tuanzi looked at the blackboard and his little head began to droop down little by little, and he began to fall asleep; Zhang Muqing lowered his voice when he saw him fall asleep, and although Zhang Tuantuan studied seriously, he learned the words 'yes' and 'not' in a whole morning.

The two little parrots learned very quickly, and in one morning, they could not only read the words taught by Zhang Muqing, but also be able to write; Holding a special pencil in his little thin legs, he learned to draw with Zhang Muqing, and although the words written were a little ugly, he could still see what kind of words they were.

Zhang Tuantuan was hit hard and studied harder, but his little paws with only four fingers couldn't hold the pen at all.

Zhang Muqing looked at Tuan Tuan's paws, looked at his short fingers and fell into deep thought, what should I do if my fingers are too short to hold the pen? Why don't you just engrave with your fingernails?

So Zhang Muqing prepared a wooden board for him, and asked Zhang Tuantuan to lie on the wooden board and engrave and learn.

After ten days of such a boring pass, the sky finally cleared, and the sun, which had not been seen for a long time, hung in the sky, which seemed particularly kind; The sky is also exceptionally blue.

Zhang Tuantuan looked at the sunny sky, thinking that he finally didn't have to stay at home, after eating, he ran to the grass outside the door that had not yet been urgently mowed, the originally shallow lawn has now grown into grass, which is one meter high!

Zhang Tuanzi also followed behind Zhang Tuantuan and ran to the embrace of nature; Zhang Muqing sat on the balcony on the second floor, looking at the swaying grass, drinking black tea, and then looking at the rare clear sky, the whole person looked extremely leisurely.

Zhang Tuantuan ran and saw a hole, and there was a sound of 'chirp...' in the hole, like the sound of a vole.

Zhang Tuanzi also lay at the entrance of the cave and listened to the sound in the cave, "Chirp... It seems that there are still young rats?"

Zhang Tuantuan nodded, and the two parrots, Cuicui and Yingying, also stayed beside the two guinea pigs, looking curiously into the cave.

Suddenly, a brownish-yellow head came out of the hole, and it turned out to be a brownish-yellow vole.

The vole seems to have found them standing at the mouth of the hole, fearing that they would enter the hole and be detrimental to his children, so they came out of the hole.

Zhang Tuanzi waved his little paws: "Hello."

The vole was silent for a moment, "... Twitter... Hello. ”

Zhang Tuantuan stepped forward and blocked Zhang Tuanzi behind him, "Where are you from?" Why do they run away to live in human yards? ”

The vole suddenly showed a frightened look, and his whole body curled up in a ball, "Tsk... There's a monster on the mountain, who looks like an ape, but eats rats, rabbits, and everything he can catch alive... He ate a lot of our voles, and I had to flee down the mountain with my wife. ”

"Do you have any other characteristics besides looking like an ape?"

"It has gray-white fur and four ears, and every time it screams, it's like a human moaning," the little vole described the appearance and voice of the so-called monster in detail.

"Sounds like a mutated ape..."Zhang Tuanzi thought about it carefully, but couldn't think of a reason, so he had to give up, just need to remind his father of them.

When Zhang Muqing heard Cuicui and Yingying's description, he suddenly thought of an introduction to a strange beast in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

"There are beasts in the mountain of the long right, its shape is like Yu and four ears, its name is long right, its sound is like a chant, and the county is full of water when you see it." Zhang Muqing read softly.

"What do you mean?" Zhang Tuantuan and Zhang Tuanzi didn't quite understand the meaning, and Cuicui said the question of the two rats.

"It means that there is a wild beast in the Changyou Mountain, which looks like an ape, but has four ears, and its name is Changyou, and its cry is like a human moaning, and if there is Changyou, there will be floods."

"Floods? So is it because of the heavy rain that has been raining for more than ten days this time? Cuicui asked in a low voice.

And Zhang Tuanzi has put his head on Zhang Muqing's legs, the whole body is elongated, and the four small short legs are hidden under him, the kind that can't be seen at all, it looks like a hairy ball without feet, which is quite cute.

"It's also possible that it came out because of the rain. After all, it doesn't look like it can control heavy rain. Zhang Muqing touched Zhang Tuanzi on his leg, his hair was very slippery, and it was extremely comfortable to touch.

A few small animals seemed to understand it or not, and it had nothing to do with them anyway, so they didn't care about it.

After eating, he continued to go to the yard to have fun, and Zhang Tuanzi also put his food into a small paper bag and brought it to the vole family.

After taking the food given by Zhang Tuanzi, the vole invited them to the house as guests.

"Because it's a freshly drilled hole, it's still relatively simple." Looking at the hole covered with hay, it looks pretty good, not as bad as expected.

And their children have just been born, and their bodies are still slick and hairy, and they look a little ugly.

Zhang Tuantuan stood a little farther away with some disgust, Zhang Tuanzi was not interested in mice, he just wanted to see what their holes were like.

"Does your hole lead to the outside of the yard?" Zhang Tuanzi asked, pointing to another hole.

"Yes, that's where we came in, but we've blocked the hole."

"Blocked? Can it still be opened? Zhang Tuanzi looked at the entrance of the cave and instantly became interested.

"Of course, we still need to go outside to find food, so the hole is not blocked."

"Can I open it now? I want to go out and see. "Zhang Tuantuan is really a furious Tuantuan who is not in the room.

"Yes." The vole moved quickly, and after a while a pile of soil was dug up, Zhang Tuanzi and Zhang Tuantuan walked out curiously, and the two little parrots jumped up and down behind them.

Out of the hole was a ditch, which was built to prevent the water from flowing too much and breaking the wall. There is also a stone bridge on the left, from which the vole family came.

The ditch used to be a few huge rocks, and under the stones there were several voles living there. After the stones, there were some huge straight trees.
