After noon, Liu Zixuan knelt down to worship the two elders, opened the oilcloth umbrella, and took Gu Nanyan out of the door of Gu's house. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

When they arrived at the neem tree at the entrance of the village, the two of them were walking side by side, and Gu Nanyan suddenly asked, "This time, can I ask you?" ”

Looking at the thin buffalo under the tree, Liu Zixuan was taken aback by the question, came back to his senses, and said, "What do you ask?" ”

"No matter when, people have to look at the long term!" Gu Nanyan has something to say.

Liu Zixuan listened, and couldn't hold back the smile on his face, the last time she said this, she was also here, but I was afraid that even the scimitar-horned buffalo on the side of the road would remember it clearly. Knowing that she was asking about her future plans, Liu Zixuan said: "In the future, spring, summer, autumn and winter are inseparable from making a fire for cooking, and the sun and moon on the rabbit hill are very simple......"

"You're still going to be like your father, a hunter?"

When Liu Zixuan heard this question, he sighed and came out: "I really want to go into the mountains to hunt, but my father won't let me touch the gun again before he dies." ”

"It's no wonder, you can't even catch a pheasant in your hand, I don't think you can hunt well, and you will rely on farming to support your family in the future, I don't like to play with guns and sticks, it makes people scary to watch."

Hearing Gu Nanyan's words, Liu Zixuan immediately smiled and said, "Can't catch the pheasant in your hand?" Don't underestimate people, believe it or not, I'll catch a quail and show it to you! ”

Liu Zixuan boasted like this, Gu Nanyan was suddenly surprised, she looked at Liu Zixuan with surprise in her eyes, looking at her husband who she didn't fully understand, what surprised her was that this person who has always been introverted actually talked big today, and his face was full of confidence.

"Catch a quail? Right now? Of course not! ”

Liu Zixuan handed the umbrella in his hand to Gu Nanyan, and said seriously: "Stand here and don't move, your red gauze will scare the quails away." With that, he walked forward.

Gu Nanyan stood on the road and didn't dare to move, looking at Liu Zixuan's cautious appearance, she was afraid that she would make some movement to disturb his prey.

Not far ahead, Liu Zixuan stopped, leaned over and looked at the grass on the side of the road, and after a while, he bent into the grass.

After a short while, Liu Zixuan came out of the grass, and sure enough, he was holding a quail in his hand. Gu Nanyan was very surprised, and immediately ran over to take a look.

"Quails aren't that stupid! Why doesn't it fly away and wait for you to catch it? Gu Nanyan said, her curious eyes widened.

"Don't underestimate me in the future, don't look at your black son can catch a pheasant, if you want it to catch a quail, it's difficult, the pheasant doesn't grow, it can't fly far or high, if there is no grass cover, even people can catch it." The quail is different, if it flies, the shadow will not be found, and no matter how fast the hound is, it will not be caught. ”

"Then how did you catch it! I'm really underestimating you today. ”

Liu Zixuan looked proud and said with a smile: "Let's take a look at this little guy's nest first." ”

Following Liu Zixuan into the grass on the side of the road, Gu Nanyan saw a small cage surrounded by branches on the ground, the thin and straight branches were inserted in the soil, tightly arranged into a cone, and only one side left a fist-sized gap.

Gu Nanyan couldn't help but be overjoyed when she saw it, and said, "Is this a quail nest?" ”

"I passed by several times, and I saw this little creature flying out of here, and I suspected that there might be a nest here, and I just went to your house, and when I walked here, it flew out again, and I looked this way, and I found these eggs. I made a cage by sticking branches around the quail eggs, but deliberately leaving a gap. Wait for it to come back and then get in and incubate the eggs, as long as you quietly cover it with your hand from the back of the gap, it won't be able to escape. ”

"I'm like a son of an Orion these days!" Gu Nanyan looked at the quails and said, "I'm going to take this little guy back and raise it, maybe I can bring out a nest of small quails in a few days." Gu Nanyan said as she took the quail from Liu Zixuan's hand.

Liu Zixuan shook his head and said: "If you can't raise it, the wild birds are very angry, and they won't eat or drink after they are caught, and they will die of anger." When I was a child, I caught a lot of quails in this way, and none of them survived the next day. Whatever you catch in the wilderness is difficult to domesticate, whether it is flying or running, once you lose your freedom, you will definitely die......"

In Gu Nanyan's hand, the feathers on the quail's chest kept undulating, and since it was caught, it has been struggling desperately, and it also used its short and powerful beak to peck Gu Nanyan's fingers, trying to break free from the restraints.

Gu Nanyan saw that the quail was so persistent, hesitated for a moment and then let go, saw the quail flying out suddenly, and said: "Today is our good day, let's take it as a release to eliminate the disaster!" ”

……

Leaving the quail nest, Liu Zixuan opened the oilcloth umbrella, Gu Nanyan put on the bamboo basket, and the two continued to hurry.

After walking for a while, Liu Zixuan said: "I also have something, I have always wanted to ask you, do you remember the dog you saw on the day you first came to my house?" How did you say it was a wolf at the time? ”

Gu Nanyan said: "The lame dog? Compared to our sunspots, it looks so wild, it doesn't look like a dog...... Why do you suddenly ask about this? ”

Liu Zixuan said: "Tell you not to be afraid, as you said at the time, it is indeed a wolf." ”

Gu Nanyan was so frightened that she stopped, and hurriedly said, "What? Is it really a wolf? Didn't you say it was your domestic hunting dog? Why is it a wolf now? ”

Liu Zixuan hurriedly explained: "I didn't know it was a wolf at the time, and after sending you home that day, my mother told me the truth." ”

Gu Nanyan's face turned pale and blue for a while: "No wonder I didn't feel like a dog when I looked at it at the time!" Didn't you say that quails can't be raised, and how can wolves be raised? ”

"When my dad brought it home, it hadn't opened its eyes yet. There were two wolf cubs, just so small, and one of them starved to death without eating. The remaining one was kept on the post for two years, because it often stole at night, and my father was so angry that he broke one of its hind legs, and then it ran into the woods. ”

"So, there are wolves in the woods! Could your father's death have anything to do with it? ”

"I doubted it, too, but I couldn't figure it out, a lame wolf couldn't kill my father. Besides, wolves, like dogs, know how to repay their kindness, after all, it was my father who raised it......"

"However, the wolf is so venomous, and your father broke one of its hind legs, who can guarantee that it will not retaliate? Which of those stories is good? ”

"My dad has been dealing with wolves since he was a child, and he never looked away from them, and he must have a reason for killing the she-wolf and bringing the wolf cubs home. Don't be afraid of it, you've seen it, it's lame, it's so thin, it can't get food in the woods, it's afraid that it will soon starve to death. If it had anything to do with my father's death, I'd go into the woods and kill him!" ”

Hearing Liu Zixuan boast again, Gu Nanyan said: "Don't think it's great to catch a quail, you have to fight wolves!" I think it's better to forget it, as the old saying goes, don't kick a thin dog, don't ride a sick horse. Why bother with a lame wolf? As long as it doesn't come to trouble you in the future, I won't let you trouble it! ”

"Okay, then don't bother with it."

"You're not allowed to play with guns and sticks."

"Okay, listen to you, don't play with guns."

"Say what?"

"Don't play with guns!"

"The previous sentence!"

"Listen to you! It's all up to you! ”

"What are you doing so loudly and speaking so loudly...... Hurry up! ”
