Chapter 40: The Butterfly Effect

Li Dagui slammed his head against the wall, his neck was crooked, he twisted his neck, and stood up with his head covered with both hands: "Ouch, ouch...... Dad, mother, you are so ruthless. ”

After Li Dagui finished speaking, he froze, looked at his hand, twisted his waist, and jumped up: "How am I?" I'm all right! ”

Li Fu pounced and knelt down for the fat man: "Thank you for your benefactor, thank you for your benefactor!" ”

Don't look at the people in the village who are uneducated, think of the source when drinking water, and have a grateful heart. Li Fu's daughter-in-law burst into tears, and pulled Li Dagui over with a smile, "Kneel down and kowtow, these three are like your reborn parents!" ”

The fat man stretched out his hand to block it, but he couldn't stop it, Li Dagui knelt down and kowtowed, shouting: "Hello Dad!" Hello Mom! ......" looked at Xiao Xi and didn't know what to call it.

Xiao Xi crossed his waist and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome, just call grandpa." ”

The fat man turned his head and left, "Don't kneel!" ”

"Benefactor, where are you going?"

"Do you have a stick that doesn't break when you beat someone? If it's big, it's better for me to beat this bear kid to death with a stick! ”

Li Fu and his wife hurriedly jumped up and hugged the fat man, and kept comforting, "Ouch! But don't! You don't know how much we envy you for having such a bear child! If the child can't get out of bed and can't go out to play and mess around, that's called pain! ”

The fat man turned around and glared at Xiao Xi fiercely, "You wait for me!" ”

Xiao Xi rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue, and made a grimace, "Slightly, just wait, I'm not afraid of you." ”

Li Fu's family is very grateful, and they want to leave the fat three to eat and drink. The fat man couldn't refuse, and said in his heart: Anyway, I don't have to rush to leave, just accompany their family to drink, and celebrate with them!

The adults here were drinking, and Xiao Xi ran away with Li Dagui over there. Xiao Xi asked Li Dagui to play, and Li Dagui ran behind Xiao Xi, giggling and laughing from ear to ear - he had been lying in bed for half a year, and he was finally able to run and play like other children again.

Li Fu and his wife bowled bowl after bowl, and kept toasting the fat man. The fat man was too strong to drink, and only took a small sip at a time. Li Fu and his wife drank all the bowls and cried with joy.

A few people drank and chatted. The figure on the wall flickered, and Li Dagui jumped over the courtyard wall. Li Fu hurriedly beckoned the child over, "Don't jump up and down, the illness is just right, and you want to fall and lie on the bed?" ”

"Phew!" Li Fu's daughter-in-law twisted her thumb and index finger and pinched Li Fu's thigh, "Can you speak?" How can anyone curse their own children like this? ”

Li Dagui was cured, everyone was happy, and they didn't take anything to heart, they were all happy, and called Li Dagui over to eat together. Li Dagui refused to eat, and came over and pulled Li Fu's arm to pull his father away, "Don't eat first, Dad, let's go and plant trees first." ”

Rural people can't finish their farm work, so how can they have the leisure to plant trees and play? The children in the family dare to refuse to eat and drink when the adults are eating and drinking, and want to pull their fathers to plant trees, which is unreasonable and inevitably beaten. But today is an exception, Li Fuxi put down the dishes and chopsticks with his teeth bared, said "unaccompanied" to the fat man, and left with the child.

Li Fu thought that the child had recovered and was in a good mood and wanted to plant a tree, so he accompanied the child to plant a tree. Which Cheng thought, the father and son have been planting trees for ten years without interruption...... Why did the father and son plant trees for ten years? Just because Li Dagui committed a heinous crime, he wants to make up for it. There are causes and effects before and after this matter, and slowly say -

That day, Li Dagui and a few friends went up the mountain to play, and when a few people looked up, there was a bird's nest on a big tree. The children in the village had nothing to play with, so a few friends looked at the bird's nest on the tree and had something:

"Do you know how to climb trees?"

"Huh, climbing trees? I'm the best at this, I can climb as high as I want! Li Dagui boasted to himself.

"Hey, net braggart, you climb this, climb up and take an egg from that nest, you're awesome."

"Oh, if you tell me to crawl, I'll crawl, why? Such a tall tree, I don't get tired from climbing it? I have to take a bird's egg from the top and give it to you, what am I trying to do? ”

A little guy took out a small pebble from his dirty pocket, and it was transparent and dazzling in the sun, like a crystal diamond.

The little guy got such a beautiful pebble out of nowhere, and at this time he held it in his hand and lured Li Dagui, "See, you can go up the tree and take down a bird's egg, and I will exchange this stone with you." ”

Li Dagui heard it, this deal is cost-effective! Bird eggs can be seen everywhere, he has never picked up such a beautiful little stone, and immediately agreed, "Let's talk and count, I'll go up and get the bird egg, and exchange this stone with you." When the time comes, you will give it to me, and if you regret it and don't give it, we will rob it. You can't go home and complain that we bullied you! ”

The little guy with the little stone pouted and pouted: "You go up and get the bird's eggs, and then I will change it with you." ”

The onlookers all said in unison: "Yes, yes, we testify." Don't fool anyone! Whoever is laipi will not have to play with everyone in the future! ”

After agreeing, Li Dagui looked up at the top of the tree, rolled up his trouser legs, and kicked up with the tree. This tree is a straight trunk like a telephone pole, with no branches around it. This kind of tree is not easy to climb, it is the same as climbing a telephone pole. The only difference is that the tree has bark, not as smooth as a telephone pole, so the children in the village can still climb it. This has a special skill, it is absolutely impossible to rub it up directly by holding the tree - it will scratch the chest and the stomach is full of scars - you must arch your back slightly, put your belly in, bend your arms, half-circle the trunk of the tree, so that the two feet and one hand form a triangular shape, the other hand climbs up, and at the same time the legs follow to push up, so that there is always a hand between the two legs and two legs to maintain a triangular shape, so that you can fix the person on the tree and not fall down, and then move up with one hand and one foot. If you haven't seen it before, you can search the Internet for videos of climbing coconut trees with your bare hands. That's probably how it climbs.

Learning to climb a tree is the same as learning to swim, depending on your body's sense of balance. If you don't learn it, you have to fall off if you push it up twice; Once learned, especially children, climb fast, use their hands and feet in coordination, like walking on the ground, like a monkey, half running and half jumping to the top of the tree.

Li Dagui is a representative of naughty children, going up the mountains and going down to the sea, there is nothing he dare not play. Climbing a tree more than ten meters high is no problem for him. Li Dagui twisted his flexible body and climbed up rapidly, and the little friends below deliberately shook the tree and played with him - "I don't know how to write the word 'death'", which is used to describe these wild children who have been stabbing in the sea since they were a few years old and looking for tigers in the mountains.

In the blink of an eye, Li Dagui reached the top of the tree, waved his hand, and already held a small bird's egg in his hand. The friends at the bottom have seen it. The little guy with the pretty little stone cried out, "All right, put the eggs back, you come down!" "In fact, no one really wants a bird's egg, just to have fun and see Li Dagui's ability to climb trees. Li Dagui thought for a while, "No, I put the eggs back, got down the tree and said that I don't have bird eggs in my hands, so I don't give me a stone!" Putting the bird's egg in his pocket, Li Dagui loosened his hands and feet, and soon descended from the top of the tree to the ground.

The little friend was true to his word, and Li Dagui exchanged a bird's egg for a beautiful small stone. In the era when there were no entertainment facilities or equipment, it was normal for children to play with each other like this. However, under circumstances that no one could have predicted, many serious situations occurred......

Because Li Dagui took an egg from the bird's nest, the bird's mother went out to forage for food, and when she returned to the nest, she found that she was missing a child. Who is not in a hurry when they lose a child? The mother bird had to look around, and her wings were sore, and her voice was hoarse when she cried.

Zhou Dan is a person who specializes in selling bird eggs, and on this day he brought a basket of bird eggs out to sell on the street. Walking around, no one asked the price, and walked straight to the door of a coffin shop, and a person came to him, called Wu Steal - just listen to the name, this master is a habitual thief. But Wu didn't plan to steal anything this day, he just touched something last night, and he had some money on him, and he came out to spend it today. Seeing the birds' eggs, Wu Thief must have bought some, what to eat and make up, like them, the thieves who fly the eaves and walk the wall at night, they all have a dream of being able to fly freely in the air, so they love to eat bird wings and eggs.

Wu secretly walked past Zhou Dan, stroked his hand, turned around, and took out two bird eggs from the bamboo basket, played with them in his hand, and asked Zhou Dan: "Hey, how do you sell these eggs~ ?" "Wu Thief really bought something today, but the occupational disease can't be changed, and as soon as his hand is so smooth, he took out two eggs from other people's baskets. Zhou Dan thought that he was coming, so he turned his head enthusiastically, and immediately turned his face blue, and shouted: "Eh! You little thief! Give me back the eggs, or I'll report to the police!" ”

Wu Thief's face is not good--if he wanted to steal it, these two little bird eggs, unknowingly, he would have taken them away a long time ago - in the past, he stole them every day, but no one caught them on the spot, but today he really wanted to pay for something, but he was dragged by the arm of this week's egg, saying that he stole the bird eggs!

Wu secretly held the bird egg in his hand in front of Zhou Dan and said, "Why don't you talk like this!" I came to buy eggs from you, and I showed you the things in my hand, and asked you how much it was, how did it become a theft from you? As he spoke, Wu put the eggs back in the basket and left angrily.

Whoever sells bird eggs is not selling, and earns some money to support his family. Zhou Dan hurriedly smiled, grabbed Wu Thief, put down the bamboo basket to negotiate with Wu Thief, thinking that it would be better to sell it to Wu Thief cheaper. Before the two of them could talk about the price, the shopkeeper of the coffin shop came out, and when he saw the two people squatting on the ground, he couldn't help but blurt out: "Yo, Zhou Dan, Zhou Dan, are you a foreigner?" Have you started a business with the famous Wu Dajun? Leave a little heart! "The shopkeeper of this coffin shop is called Zheng Zui. has no other hobbies, just gossip, and can't keep his mouth idle - just like now, Zhou Egg was sold, Wu secretly bought eggs, agreed on the price, paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, even if it was over, it had nothing to do with Zheng Zui at all, but when Zheng Zui came out and saw it, he had to insert a few words of gossip.
