Chapter 81: Yellow Skin
Summer always makes people feel lazy, I don't know if it's because the weather is hot, or the intimate time at night is too long, Cui'er and Lian Qingshan, the time to get up is getting later and later.
"Oh, if it goes down like this, the sun will climb to the top of the mountain to get up." Cui'er held her waist with one hand, built a pergola on her forehead with the other hand, looked at the mountains in the distance, and said to Lian Qingshan with a slight pout.
"Hehe......" Even Qingshan laughed silently, what is there to say, Cui'er is fragrant and soft, although it is a little hot to hold in summer, but even Qingshan is reluctant to let go, I can't hold it, I can't help it, I can only laugh.
"Still giggling!" Cui'er glanced at Lian Qingshan, turned around to make breakfast, and unconsciously brought some style in her eyes, which made Lian Qingshan's heart feel hot.
Lian Qingshan walked to the backyard according to his usual habits, wanting to clean up the vegetable garden and the chicken pen and pigsty, but when he first walked to the backyard, he found something unusual......
In the past, at this time, I had already come out of the cage, and I didn't see a single chicken hanging out in the chicken pen, and even the three piglets who were humming and arching in the pigsty on weekdays did not move quietly.
Lian Qingshan's heart immediately became alert, and he picked up the hoe placed behind the house, searched left and right with his eyes, and saw that there was no trace of the beast coming to the front yard, so he slowly walked to the back yard step by step.
The vegetable garden was very quiet, and when the wind blew, there was only the sound of rustling leaves rubbing against each other, and even Qingshan listened attentively, and found no abnormal sound, so he slowly walked to the location of the chicken pen. Although Lian Qingshan didn't know what was going on in the backyard, he vaguely felt in his heart that some little beast should have broken into the yard and scared the chickens and pigs in the yard.
Lian Qingshan walked around the yard, except for the half-sized chickens and small piglets that were shivering with fright, he didn't find anything abnormal, he looked around the courtyard wall and carefully observed, behind a chicken coop in the chicken pen. A hole about a foot wide was discovered.
Lian Qingshan looked at the cave carefully, the hole was obviously dug by animals with their claws, with thin claw marks, and there were still yellow animal hair, chicken feathers and faint blood stains in the hole. A slight fishy smell could be smelled between the wings of his nose, which made Lian Qingshan's mind move violently, and it was basically determined that it was a weasel who dug this hole, which is commonly known as the yellow skin.
Lian Qingshan's eyebrows wrinkled, when Cui'er wanted to raise chickens, she thought that there were yellow skins on this mountain, and at that time she only felt that the yellow skins on the mountain might not be able to touch here, but now that she looks at it, she really touches it.
Lian Qingshan used a shovel and some mud. I want to plug the wall with a big hole in it, and I think I'll tell Cui'er that there are fewer chickens later, and if Cui'er doesn't ask, I won't talk about this yellow skin.
There are a lot of evil legends in this mountain, and even Qingshan is afraid that Cui'er and the children will be frightened after hearing about it. The wall was sealed neatly, and then he walked to the front yard with a calm face, thinking about how they could solve this matter completely as he walked.
"Aoyama, what's wrong?" Cui'er was making breakfast, and when she saw Lian Qingshan walking in much earlier than usual, the expression on her face was a little wrong, so she asked a little strangely.
"The chickens in our coop have been taken out. I look like it's supposed to be a yellow skin. Lian Qingshan looked at Cui'er and said slowly, he stood beside Cui'er and pulled Cui'er in his arms, for fear that Cui'er would be frightened.
"Yellow skin? Weasel? When Cui'er heard the name Huangpizi, she only felt a little excited. It's like a cool air coming out of the back.,Although I'm not afraid.,But it's very responsive.。 Cui'er was soon pulled into Lian Qingshan's arms, and his warm body temperature made the trace of unhappiness in Cui'er's heart disappear in an instant.
"Yes, Cui'er. Don't be afraid, I'm here! Lian Qingshan gently patted Cui'er's back and comforted in a low voice.
"Qingshan, is it true that you said that the yellow skin is charming?" Although Cui'er is not afraid of small animals like weasels, she can't help but worry about the supernatural stories circulating in the mountains.
"I don't know, but don't worry, I'll protect you." Lian Qingshan held Cui'er's hand and said solemnly.
"Hmm!" Cui'er nodded seriously, and then said cautiously, "Don't tell the big girl about this first, she is still young, I am afraid that she will be scared when she hears it, I have detained the two of them in the past two days, and prevented them from going to the backyard, and then let's think of a way together to see how we can get rid of the yellow skin, and I won't dare to come back in the future." ”
Cui'er is not worried about her own safety, but she is worried that the two children will be frightened by the weasels who may come to steal the chickens, and she is a little distressed that her half-grown hens are stolen and eaten by the weasels before they even lay eggs.
Creak......
Just as Cui'er and Lian Qingshan were frowning and thinking of ideas, a small golden shadow jumped up to the windowsill from outside and squeaked at Cui'er.
"Zhaocai, are you back?" Cui'er was very happy to see the Zhaocai jumping on the windowsill, and she took out a small pinch of freshly fried tea from the cupboard and put it into the small bowl of Zhaocai.
Creak...... Zhaocai was very happy to see the tea leaves that Cui'er was holding, holding the tea sticks with his two little paws, first smelling them very cherished, and then licking them a few times with his small pink tongue, and then he ate the tea leaves with a click.
To say that when Cui'er saw Zhaocai eating tea before, she was worried about whether there would be anything wrong with it, but now she won't be worried. After such a long period of observation, Zhaocai likes the taste of tea very much, and prefers to eat tea.
"Eat slowly, and I'll give it to you when I'm done." Although Cui'er wants to keep the tea and sell it for money, she is not stingy with the food for Zhaocai, and Cui'er is also measured, and the most ordinary tea sticks are eaten for Zhaocai, and she is reluctant to eat the refined tea leaves.
Watching Zhaocai eating tea, the small mouth moved and the beard was curled and very cute, Cui'er smiled and stretched out her finger to gently rub the top of Zhaocai's forehead, Zhaocai stuffed the tea into his mouth, and squinted his eyes comfortably.
"Hehe, you little thing." Because of such a fork in Zhaocai, Cui'er felt a lot less uncomfortable in her heart, looking at Zhaocai's cute appearance. Cui'er exhaled softly, turned her head and went back to cooking.
Even Qingshan saw that Cui'er's mood had calmed down, so he didn't say anything, picked up the bucket and went out to the back of the yard to fetch water and water the vegetables. Then I'm going to get something around the yard to block it, so as not to let the yellow guy get into the loophole.
When Cui'er fed the chickens, she counted the number of chickens in the backyard, and there were three less, half-sized chickens, not to mention almost a pound, so she lost it, or was taken away by the yellow skin, Cui'er's heart was very uncomfortable, and she wanted to get some mouse traps to clamp the yellow skin. I felt that this was too vicious, and I couldn't think of any good way for a while, so after feeding the chickens in a hurry, I went to the front with the big girl and the little tiger.
On this day, Cui'er was watching the big girl and the little tiger play in the front yard. And Zhaocai, who just came back, walked around the backyard as usual, and did not stand on the top of the chicken coop as usual to be the king, and I don't know where to go crazy.
Cui'er and Lian Qingshanguang paid attention to the yellow skin, and were busy cleaning up the courtyard wall to strengthen the chicken coop, and they had to take care of the children, even under the gate of the front yard. Two layers of wooden planks were nailed, and the whole yard was cleaned up airtightly.
Because of their busy work, Cui'er and Lian Qingshan were very tired all day long, and their spirits were much tighter than usual, so they didn't care about attracting money, after all, it was a wild animal. I'm not afraid that it will run away.
It was getting dark, and after the family had dinner, Cui'er led the girl and Xiaohu to tell the story for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, she coaxed the girl and Xiaohu to sleep. The two little guys also slept at this time in the past, but they didn't make a fuss, they lay side by side on the kang, and Ren Cui'er fanned them with a pu fan, and it didn't take long for them to fall asleep.
The night breeze was blowing slowly, cooler than during the day, and Cui'er was relieved that she didn't find the figure of the yellow skin because of the calm wind and waves on this day, and when she was relieved, she heard the clucking of the hens in the chicken coop in the backyard.
"Coming?" Cui'er's heart suddenly lifted, the hens don't usually call so nervously, this is the yellow skin again, right?
"*Not far from ten." Lian Qingshan's brows furrowed slightly, and he sighed and said, "You are watching the child in the house, and I will go outside to take a look." ”
"Don't go yet, haven't you already sealed the yard, the yellow skin can't find a way in, maybe you can leave after tossing for a while." Cui'er looked at Lian Qingshan to get up, and grabbed him with some panic and said, not afraid of this little thing, but felt that although the rumors in this mountain were not very true, they should not be believed, and it was better not to hurt the life of the yellow-skinned man.
"Okay." Lian Qingshan thought about it, nodded, and sat back on the edge of the kang, although he didn't go out, he didn't put down the crutches he was holding in his hand. It's not that Lian Qingshan needs to use crutches to support his body, he is afraid of the legend of the yellow skin, because he is afraid that he will hurt the life of the yellow skin, and he wants to use crutches to drive the yellow skin away.
Outside the courtyard wall of the backyard, in an inconspicuous place, a shadow of three feet long is biting on the side of the wall, and the creaking sound is not noticeable, which makes people feel very sore when they listen to it.
After a while, the crunching sound was gone, followed by the sound of digging earth, obviously even the things that Qingshan had made outside before did not work, and they were gouged into the earthen wall by the three yellow skins.
As soon as the sound of plowing came out, the chickens in the chicken pen in the courtyard wall suddenly exploded, and the screams rang out for a while, and the misery in the voice made even Qingshan and Cui'er feel cautious when they listened to it in the house.
"No, I have to go out and have a look!" Lian Qingshan couldn't sit still, his hand holding the cane tightened, and he walked out with a step, "Cui'er, you take a good look at the child in the house, I closed the door, don't come out if there is any movement." ”
When the moonlight fell faintly, the shadows of the three thieves who could see the eyes of the three thieves and rats who were digging the soil flashed with an inexplicable cold light, this scene was very weird, and people couldn't help but chill when they saw it.
