Chapter III
As the days passed, the illness of his life became more and more serious. At first, I was able to go out for a walk, but now I can only stay at home.
I feel sorry for him, I stay by his side every day, and he treats me very well. He told me a lot of stories, Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, the Seven Fairies and Dong Yong, the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd, and Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai.
In fact, I don't understand human affection, love, love, and love, and I often say in my life, "They all love each other." "But what is love? I don't understand. That's probably why I'm an animal.
We foxes don't live long, and most foxes only have acquaintances with mates, and the purpose is just to reproduce together.
It seems that the love and love mentioned in his life are not for the purpose of reproduction, just like Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, one is a demon and the other is a human, if it is just for the purpose of reproduction, then why do they become each other's partners?
I do not quite understand.
I hadn't seen the little finch for many days, and I didn't know if it was okay, or if it would be eaten by other foxes if it left me, or if it was worried about me.
When I think of this, I will inevitably feel melancholy, and my little finch has spent a long time with me in my short life.
I have probably noticed that I often jump on the eaves and look at the woods not far from here, which is my former home.
I stayed on Pingsheng's lap, and Pingsheng coughed, and I got up and rubbed my head against him.
Pingsheng picked me up, I looked directly into Pingsheng's eyes, Pingsheng chuckled and coughed again, and after a while, he said, "Does Su Su miss his former friend?" Want to go to them? ”
I don't dare to look at life. I miss the little finch, but I don't want to leave my life. I couldn't speak, I couldn't answer him, but my ears were drooping, my head was down, and I didn't dare to look directly into my eyes.
Pingsheng coughed again, and as soon as I felt Pingsheng's hand loosen, I fell to the ground, and my back fell lightly to the ground. Pingsheng hurriedly picked me up and said, "I'm sorry, Susu." ”
I rubbed his hand to show that I was fine. It's just that Pingsheng coughed again, and after a while, he said, "If Su Su wants to go to find a friend, then go, but he must come back within three days." ”
I stared at him with wide eyes and chirped in disbelief. Pingsheng touched my head and smiled, then coughed again, and said softly, "Come back early, I'll wait for you at home, and I'll tell you another one when you come back, the story of Meng Jiangnu crying on the Great Wall, okay?" ”
I believe that I will definitely go back, and I am grateful for his trust.
I can't give up my life, he's my favorite human, so I'll definitely go home.
I woke up early, ran to his room, covered him with the quilt, touched him with my paws, and kissed him on the forehead before leaving.
I have to leave early, I understand, maybe I hear Pingsheng call me Susu, and when I see Pingsheng's gentle eyes, I am reluctant to leave. But I can't, the little finch is my best friend, and he was worried when I left, and I had to go back and tell him that he was safe.
I was in a hurry, I don't know if I wanted to see Xiao Que'er earlier, or if I wanted to go home early to listen to the story of Meng Jiangnu told me in my life.
Half a day passed, and I finally walked into the woods.
The woods don't look like they've changed, maybe they've not been around for a long time, and they've not had time to grow.
I started calling "Little Sparrow!" Little Sparrows! "All I got was the sound of all kinds of birds flapping and flapping their wings.
I walked into the woods, and as I went, I cried out, "Little finch, little finch, I'm a fox!" I'm back, little finch! Where are you? ”
I was tired from walking, so I lay down on the stone to rest, and the stone was hard and had no temperature. I think about my life, I always like to put me on his lap or hold me, it is always very warm.
At last I heard the familiar chirping of the little finch, "Fox! Little fox! ”
The little finch rushed down from the sky, rushed in front of me, threw herself into my arms, and sobbed softly, "I thought you would never come back..."
The little finch's voice was a little hoarse, and I thought it must have been looking for me after I left, calling my name all the time. But in the vast sea of people, how can it be found?
I listened to it sob, felt the fluff on my chest wet from the little finch's tears, and I told it "It's okay, I'm back." ”
I told Little Finch that I had met Pingsheng, and Pingsheng saved me and took me to his house and gave me a home.
The little finch fluttered in the sky and said, "That life is really a good man." ”
When I thought of my life, I remembered my cough again, and I asked Xiao Qi'er, "Xiao Qi'er, is there any medicine for cough?" I've been coughing all my life, and I want to find him some herbs to go back. ”
The little finch thought for a long time and said to me, "Little fox, I'm sorry, I don't know any herbs that can cure humans. However, when I went to Xishantou before, I saw a lot of humans digging up a cylindrical herb, and I heard that it was very valuable, and it must be eaten for life! I'll take you! ”
Xishantou is not far from here, but this day has passed, if I go to Xishantou and come back, I will not be able to go home in time, and I will definitely worry about it in my life.
I thought about it for a long time, I was more worried about my life than I would worry about my life, and if I could, I would like to save him.
I gritted my teeth and followed the little finch to the west hill.
The west hill is particularly dense with woods, and I used to stay on the outskirts of the forest and dare not go in, but this time I want to take a risk for the sake of my life.
Probably because it is late autumn, many animals have already hibernated, except for a few rabbits on the road, the others are fine.
It's just that when I ran there with the little finch, there were quite a few humans guarding there.
The little finch whispered in the air, "Fox, fox, there are too many people here, it's very dangerous, you better not go." ”
I looked at the sky, it was getting dark, I wasn't too far away from the humans, and I could vaguely see a lot of humans yawning.
I thought about giving up, but as soon as this thought came out, I remembered the way he coughed all his life, and the dazed look he had when he coughed up blood, which I still remember. Finally having a chance to save him, how could I give up?
I gritted my teeth and whispered to the little finch, "Little finch, I want to wait for them to change people, and take the opportunity to grab the nearest medicinal herbs." ”
The little finch fluttered its wings, thought for a while, and said, "As soon as they leave, I'll let you go!" I told you to come back, you have to come back, you know, little fox! ”
I said, "Thank you." ”
Xiao Que'er snorted and chirped, "You are so polite to me? We are best friends, what are you doing so politely! After saying that, he flew down and gently bit me twice with his mouth.
I waited with the little finch until the evening, and in the evening these people had to be replaced. I just waited for them to rush out and grab the nearest medicine plant when they were replaced.
Pingsheng saved me, and I want to save him too. At the end of the day, I was reluctant to leave my life.
At last when the moon peeked out, and the night on the western hill began to weave into the sky, I heard the little finch cry vigorously, "Little fox!" Come on! ”
I rushed out of the bushes and headed straight for the medicine in the distance. The little finch kept crying, "Come on, little fox, quick!" Come on! "I kept digging around the medicine in front of me, and my paws were covered with a lot of clay.
It was only halfway through the digging when the little finch shouted loudly, "The little fox is coming back, they are coming!" Come back soon! ”
