Chapter 148: The Raven's Curse (1)
The alternation of spring and summer, it is the season of lukewarm, on the evening of this day, when the sky is still dark, Nie Xiaohu and the five of them are enjoying the refreshing evening breeze on the streets of Luoning County, strolling comfortably.
"What a big scorpion!" , Liu Zhenxiao suddenly exclaimed.
The four of them were all stunned, and then turned their heads to look, only to see Liu Zhenxiao squatting next to the ditch on the side of the road, looking down at something.
The four of them hurried over, and it turned out that there was a scorpion floating in the ditch by the side of the road, the scorpion was brown and huge, the size of a mouse.
"It's really big enough, it's rare!" , Nie Xiaohu nodded.
"Be careful!" , Shi Yuning screamed, it turned out that Liu Zhenxiao actually stretched out his hand to grab the scorpion.
"Ahh , Liu Zhenxiao's hand was stung by a scorpion, and then shook his hand.
"I said you're really bold enough to just catch it?" , Nie Xiaohu said with a smile.
Liu Zhenxiao ignored it and continued to reach out to fish for the scorpion, but was stung again, Liu Zhenxiao didn't give up, shook his hand, and continued to fish.
"I said you're obsessed, right?" Shi Yuning said in surprise, "It stung you like this, you still want to save it?" ”
Liu Zhenxiao finally spoke: "It's its nature to sting people, it's my nature for me to fish for it, how can I give up my nature because of my nature?" ”
"I'll go, it's so philosophical!"
Nie Xiaohu couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Moved!" Admiration! ”
"Hmm!" , Tang Yibin also nodded incessantly, "To be a man should be like Xiao Liuzi, to resist the temptation of the outside world and adhere to the kind nature!" ”
"Not really!" , Liu Zhenxiao reached out to catch the scorpion, shook his head and said, "My nature is that what I haven't eaten must be tasted!" ”
"Holy!" , Nie Xiaohu and the others instantly fell to the ground.
"Good! Good! ……”
As the five of them passed through a small square, there were bursts of applause and applause from a makeshift teepee in the square.
"It's a circus, isn't it?" , Nie Xiaohu looked at the tent and said.
"That's right!" , Mao Guangjian said: "This is a circus from Shaanxi, it is going to perform in the county for three days, today is the second day, I heard that the show is good, the venue is full!" You listen! ”
"yes, it's good!" Shi Yuning continued: "I came to see it last night, especially the trapeze, it's really exciting!" There are swings in the air on both sides, and a big man is pulled by a little girl, and he also flips three heels in the air, and then is caught by the person on the other side, which is very exciting! ”
Shi Wei condensed his spirits, and seemed to show the scene of the circus in front of him, dancing and saying: "The most exciting thing is the finale show, called Tiger's Mouth Escape!" A big tiger was lying there, with its mouth wide open, and a little girl actually put her head into the tiger's mouth, and it took a long time for a pillar of incense to withdraw her head, and I was nervous not to want it! ”
As he spoke, Shi Yuning stroked his heart with his hand, and the whole person was excited, looking like he had palpitations.
"That tiger must have been fed since he was a child, and he is more docile than a cat, so what's there to be nervous about!" , Nie Xiaohu pursed his lips.
"That's what you say, but it's not a joke to stick your head in the tiger's mouth!"
"That's just as well!"
"Wow! ~~~Wow! At this time, there were several crows overhead.
"What a bad luck!" , Shi Yunning looked up at a few crows flying in the sky, and muttered in his mouth.
"What's wrong?" , Nie Xiaohu looked at Shi Yuning in confusion.
"I heard the old man say that the crow is a hoodoo thing, and its cry is like a curse, and when you hear its call, you will be unlucky all day!"
"Whew! What should I do, there is no shadow! Nie Xiaohu smiled.
"Ahh ~~~”
"Tigers eat people! ……”
Just as the five of them were about to leave, there was a sudden chaos in the tent, screams and shouts became one, and then people rushed out of the tent one after another.
"What's wrong? Something is wrong! Nie Xiaohu stopped a man who was running out and asked.
The man was visibly frightened, and his face was full of horror.
"Old... Tigers eat people! With that, the man ran away in a panic.
"What!?" , Nie Xiaohu was startled, and the whole person rushed towards the tent like an arrow from the string, and Tang Yibin and the others also showed their weapons one after another, and rushed in.
The ceiling of the tent was full of lanterns, and in front of it was a stage, in front of which were rows of stools, and at the moment it was already all over the place, and there were people running around, crying for their fathers and mothers, calling for their children and daughters, and the voices were noisy, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
"Stop! No one is allowed to move! Nie Xiaohu roared angrily, and the sound shook the tent.
Everyone was frightened by this sudden roar, and involuntarily quieted down.
"It turned out that Nie Shen was arrested! Now it's saved! I don't know who shouted, and then everyone relaxed, and they all stood in place, panting constantly.
Nie Xiaohu's gaze shifted to the stage, there was a square platform made of wood on the stage, about a meter high, there was a tiger lying on the square platform, and a girl in a performance costume was lying next to the tiger, her body was full of blood, and the flesh and blood on her delicate neck were blurred and miserable.
The tiger seemed to know that he had done something wrong, and was sticking out his tongue and licking the girl's face, and a choked whine came out of his throat, as if begging his owner to wake up quickly.
"Who's the class leader here?" , Nie Xiaohu looked at the tiger, instinctively swallowed a mouthful of spit, and did not step forward.
Tang Yibin and the others also held their own blades, blocking in front of Nie Xiaohu, looking nervously at the tiger on the stage, the tiger seemed to be very docile, ignoring the people in the audience, only licking the girl's face, with a sad look in his eyes.
"Official... Master, I'm the class leader", a middle-aged man hurriedly came to Nie Xiaohu and bowed.
"Get the tiger away first!"
"Good! Fast! Fast! The class leader waved his hand at several young people in performance costumes who were still stunned.
