A huge weasel, with two short forelimbs hanging down on his chest, like a curious child, sat leisurely on the side of the mountain road, staring at the pair of round eyes the size of soybeans, and looked at a pair of young people pulling a cart in front of him from a distance.

After a moment of astonishment, Liu Zixuan carefully looked at the weasel from head to toe, looking at its size, almost on par with an adult domestic cat, the fur around it was dark reddish-brown, and the shiny hair shone in the sun, looking from a distance, it looked like a burning flame. Weasels with dark reddish-brown fur are rare on the bull's head slope, and seeing such a special one today is enough to surprise the hunter's son, who has seen countless weasels.

Seeing that Gu Nanyan was frightened by this little thing, Liu Zixuan immediately removed the climbing rope on his shoulder, picked up a stone from the ground with a bow, and threw it at the weasel, trying to scare it away from the side of the road.

However, Liu Zixuan's wish was not fulfilled, and although the stone did not hit the target, it fell to the ground near the weasel's body. Usually, there is no need to wait for the other party to attack, as long as the vigilant weasel sees a human being from a distance, it will either flee or hide and disappear, but this one encountered today shows a complete abnormality, it not only looks at people in broad daylight, but also does not take Liu Zixuan's warning to heart at all, and still sits there with peace of mind, not moving, looking like a beautifully carved statue, posing in an extremely leisurely posture, as if it has long expected that the stone will not fall on its head.

Could it be just a weasel skin filled with dead grass? Liu Zixuan was suddenly puzzled, but the shining black eyes and the wriggling semicircular ears all showed that it was a living thing!

What a guts! Seeing this situation, a cloud of anger burned in Liu Zixuan's heart, if his father was still alive, even if the weasel smelled his breath a few miles away, he would rush into the cave, but today, this weasel actually ignored his warning! Thinking about it, the anger in Liu Zixuan's heart seemed to be poured with oil, and he jumped up his throat in an instant, in his opinion, the behavior of this weasel was simply a great irony of the hunter's son, and it was also a blatant blasphemy against the deceased hunter!

Liu Zixuan saw that the weasel was still sitting there motionless, and in anger, he stepped away and strode towards the weasel - if it didn't run for his life, he wanted to trample it to death!

It wasn't until he was three or two steps away from Liu Zixuan that he saw the weasel put down his two short forelimbs, leaned down in front of him, and slowly turned around and got into the grass on the side of the road. Before getting into the bushes, it actually stopped, and looked back at Liu Zixuan with those round eyes.

The actions of this wild creature are clearly provocative! In a fit of rage, Liu Zixuan quickly chased in the direction of the weasel's escape, wanting to return the color, but he only heard a rustling sound in the grass, and the reddish-brown figure disappeared.

Liu Zixuan searched in the grass for a long time, but failed to find out where the weasel went, and returned to the car in anger, only to see Gu Nanyan still frightened, still holding his chest timidly.

"It's just a yellow skin, don't be afraid of it." Liu Zixuan comforted a few words, hung up the climbing rope again, and took a difficult step.

Gu Nanyan, who was in shock, saw that Liu Zixuan had already pulled the car, so she let out a long breath and hurriedly chased after the cart.

A weasel with strange behavior brought many questions to Liu Zixuan, he knew that this animal has always been diurnal and nocturnal, and the day is their precious dormancy time, which should be used to supplement the physical strength consumed by nocturnal activities, but the one he met today, it not only came out in broad daylight, but also dared to confront powerful humans at close range, such a situation is extremely rare. Although he had seen weasels during the day, it was not in the early morning, when it was almost dark, and he had never seen them in such a bright sun before......

However, Liu Zixuan quickly found a quite reasonable explanation, he wondered in his heart, this guy probably went too far to hunt last night, and encountered danger on the way back to the cave in the morning, which delayed the sun rising, and on the way back to the cave around the danger, it happened to meet himself - such speculation is not unfounded, Liu Zixuan knows that some weasels that hunt at night often stay away from the cave and go several miles away. In addition, there is another more important reason, that is, since his father's death, the weasels around the Niutoupo are no longer hunted, relying on the large bushes here to hide, they have a large number of fearless breeding, for a long time like wolves, the group has also grown up, some frivolous and bold weasels do not take humans in their eyes is normal......

Liu Zixuan lowered his head to pull the cart, thinking about the weasel, and soon arrived at his father's grave.

This hill is called Niutoupo, there are two hills in the east and one in the west, and an arc-shaped mountain beam in the middle connects the two ends, looking from afar, the whole mountain is like a buffalo head with two horns, so it is named Niutoupo. In order to avoid the erosion of the flowing water in the rainy season, the tomb bag is set on a small piece of flat ground on the northeast slope of the west mountain, which is far away from the rabbit hill directly north of the mountain.

Liu Zixuan and Gu Nanyan pulled the cart onto the platform, and worked together to move the stele out of the car, and after resting for a while, they each picked up their tools and dug a pit directly north of the tomb.

After a short period of effort, the deep pit was dug well, and the two people first put a flat cornerstone into the bottom of the pit, and then put the stele facing north on the bottom of the pit cornerstone, and then moved the pre-prepared gravel from the car, filled the gaps in the pit, and then took dry mountain soil to fill the gaps between the stones...... Finally, the two men stepped around the foot of the monument a few more times to ensure stability.

After the tombstone was erected, Liu Zixuan and Gu Nanyan both knelt on the ground and bowed to their father's tomb. After kowtowing three heads, he was about to get up, Liu Zixuan suddenly found that there were several animal paw prints printed on the covering soil on the southwest side of the tomb! Liu Zixuan looked at it, and couldn't help but shudder.

It's a wolf! Liu Zixuan was very familiar with the footprints in front of him, although the footprints were very messy, he could still conclude that these marks were left by the lame wolf who had been with him for two years!

Seeing the paw prints, Liu Zixuan couldn't help but ponder - he actually dared to leave footprints on the hunter's grave, what kind of intentions did the lame wolf come from? With a stomach full of questions, Liu Zixuan immediately got up and looked around at the surrounding mountains and forests, but after looking around a few times, he didn't find the familiar figure he imagined.

It seems that this forest is far from being as quiet as imagined.
