Chapter 44: Beating the Weasel{1}

Xiaomei didn't have much reaction when she heard this, just because of Wang Tao's strength, but Xiaobao knew very well in her heart that these were just two empty coffins, in fact, the bodies of Xiaomei's parents had long since disappeared.

Because he was afraid that Wang Tao, a stunned young man, would cause unnecessary trouble, Xiaobao hurriedly changed the topic: "Brother Wang Tao, don't be suspicious, let's hurry up and get down to business!" Stretching out his hand and pointing to the other coffin behind him: "Look, there is another coffin here, how much time does it take to dig the burial pit for such two large coffins?" ”

"Ouch! Really, it seems that today's task is really a bit heavy. ”

Wang Tao was really diverted, turned his head and looked in the direction pointed by Xiaobao, and couldn't help frowning and muttering: "Then what are we waiting for, let's go quickly!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he immediately pushed the cart up the mountain.

The three of them worked until dusk, and then they buried the coffins of Xiaomei's parents smoothly.

In the end, the two coffins were buried together, and the pit used for burial was dug by Wang Tao alone.

The two wooden inscriptions were written by Xiaobao himself, although the handwriting is slightly immature, but after all, it is heartfelt, so it can barely be read.

There are a few meat dishes placed in front of the grave, with two light teas and light wine as sacrifices, these are carefully prepared by Xiaomei, although it is not a precious thing, but a piece of filial piety is irreplaceable.

After that, Xiaomei officiated, and Xiaobao and Wang Tao accompanied her.

Xiaomei lit three sticks of incense and inserted them on the grave, and began to talk heartbroken about some of the past, during which she cried while talking, which made Wang Tao and Xiaobao's hearts sour.

It was almost dusk, and as the light began to fade, only a piece of black pressure could be seen in the distant mountains, as if they were connected together and could never see the end.

It may be that such a sad scene touched the softness of Xiaobao's heart, which made his mood can't help but become heavy, and even his eyes are inexplicably wet.

After burning the paper money and bowing, Xiaobao and Wang Tao helped Xiaomei up and went back together.

Xiaomei was very nostalgic and reluctantly looked back at the tombstone behind her, but she could only sigh in vain.

Xiaobao also subconsciously glanced back at the tombstone, only to see that under the afterglow of the sunset, the grave added a bit of loneliness, as if wearing a veil of mystery out of thin air.

After returning home, Xiaomei's mood seemed very depressed, looking depressed, Xiaobao knew that what she needed most now was companionship, so she silently sat in the hall with her, and didn't say anything superfluous.

The dull atmosphere really made Wang Tao a little unable to sit still, he took the initiative to say that he was going to make today's dinner, and then went outside to get firewood.

Holding a pile of dry firewood to the kitchen and preparing to make a fire to cook, Wang Tao suddenly found that a small thing was lying on the stove and stealing dry food.

It's the other way around! How dare you snatch something from my mouth to eat?

Wang Tao was furious, and the first thought in his mind was to quickly fight away this bad thing.

Because he had so much dry firewood in his hand, which could be used as a weapon at this time, he gritted his teeth and used all his strength, so he threw all the dry firewood at the little thing on the stove that was stealing the dry food.

Because of the abundance of firewood and the fact that it was pouring in from all directions, even though the little thing was nimble enough to avoid a lot of firewood, it was still hit by a thick piece of wood in the hind leg.

The little thing was frightened, and after falling from the stove, it began to run around the house, screaming in panic from time to time.

Wang Tao smiled when he saw this, picked up a piece of firewood from the ground, and ran around chasing this little thing, which soon made the kitchen smoky and messy.

The fight was lively inside, and Xiaobao was already standing outside the door in a daze.

He wasn't attracted by the noise in the kitchen, in fact, he came over to help Wang Tao cook together, which was just a coincidence.

Just when Xiaobao hadn't figured out what was going on, he suddenly found a black shadow running straight to his position, and when he looked closely, it was actually a lame weasel doing tricks.

The weasel ran up to Xiaobao and suddenly howled in panic, and at the same time turned to him and released a stinky fart with a strong smell.

Xiaobao originally wanted to dodge and let it live, but unexpectedly, a stinky smell rushed to his nostrils, which made his mind suddenly blank, and his expression became trance-like.

Vaguely, Xiaobao seemed to see a sharp-beaked monkey with a yellow-haired face on the opposite side, limping towards him.

Although he didn't understand what was going on, the resentment that could be revealed from the other party's eyes still made Xiaobao secretly surprised.

I just wanted to open my mouth and scold him loudly, but I couldn't make any sound in my throat, not even my legs and feet.

The thing walked in front of Xiaobao, with an evil smile on the corner of his mouth, but when he wanted to break into Xiaobao's body, an accident happened, because a dazzling golden light suddenly emitted from Xiaobao's body, and the thing was violently ejected far away......

In the blink of an eye, Xiaobao only felt trembling all over, and his brain regained consciousness again.

He seemed to have just recovered from the dream just now, shook his somewhat dazed head, and found that the weasel in front of him was gone.

Thinking of the golden light just now, Xiaobao subconsciously touched the black pendant on his neck, and said in his heart: This thing looks inconspicuous, but I didn't expect it to be a good thing to ward off evil spirits!

When he was still in a daze, Wang Tao was already scolding and running out with a thick wooden stick in his hand, and began to chase the weasel who had just escaped in the yard.

After about five or six minutes, Wang Tao gritted his teeth and walked back slowly, "This dog thing!" It's running pretty fast, and next time I run into it, I'll have to slaughter it and stew it! ”

When Xiaobao heard this, he was so frightened that he made a silent gesture at him, "Brother Wang Tao, you are crazy!" Weasel is a wicked thing, how dare you provoke it? Aren't you afraid that it will trouble you? ”

"Cut, you little knows what!"

Wang Tao didn't seem to take this matter to heart at all, glanced at him disdainfully, and seemed to laugh at his timidity: "I, a big man, can still be scared by a little beast?" What a joke! That little thing can scare a little kid like you! Hehe......" laughed dryly, and suddenly bent down and stared at Xiaobao's eyes tightly and said, "What's the matter?" Were you about to pee your pants just now? ”

"I ...... Go to ......."

Xiaobao saw that he completely regarded his kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and rolled his eyes angrily, while Wang Tao laughed, whistled and began to clean the whole kitchen.
