Heizi immediately rushed over, pulled the old man's sleeve, and said, "Amber, Brother Yu and Da Zhuang went to find Niuniu, but they didn't come back, but what should I do?" ”

The old man listened, but laughed, turned around and took out a one-foot-square bamboo cage in the room, and squatted in the bamboo cage with a half-foot-long white mouse, the small eyes were rare red, and he looked at everyone in a hurry, the old man shook the cage very rarely, causing the mouse to chirp twice, and he said, "I lost your girl last time, and it took a lot of effort to find it, these days I used the tiger's blood to change a prescription, and I caught the fragrant mouse back, and I just tied a medicine bag on Brother Yu'er in the morning, Thinking about waking up and trying again, I didn't expect them to run out just in time. Don't worry about it, keep the three of them sitting at the dinner table and drinking porridge tomorrow morning. ”

After the old man finished speaking, he carried the cage and went out slowly, and everyone looked at each other for a long time, and they all felt that there was no better way, and they could only believe that the old man did not say anything big.

Zhao Fengnian helped Rui Xue back to the backyard house, and seeing that her face was still full of worry, he persuaded, "The old man said that he would bring the children back, so you can relax." ”

Rui Xue shook her head, "I'm not thinking about the two boys, I'm thinking about Niuniu, that girl is very afraid of rain and thunder, seeing that it will rain tonight, if she can't come back, maybe where she will shrink and shed tears." ”

"That girl is afraid of thunder?" Zhao Fengnian thought of the fierce appearance of Wu Yu who was chasing Wu Yu with a stick, and he really felt a little hard to believe.

Ruixue took off her shoes, leaned on the brocade quilt, rubbed her calves that were a little numb and swollen, and sighed, "That girl was shocked by a thunderstorm when she was a child, and she fell ill, when her grandfather was there before, there was someone to protect her, and then no one was around, so it was much more pitiful, I followed her back to the wooden house that night, it happened to be thundering and raining, I took her to sleep all night, she believed me and came back with me." He was too rude in front of Brother Xu and the others just now, and my tone was a little heavier, and she actually ran away. ”

Zhao Fengnian took over and rubbed her legs, and said with a smile, "You don't have too much worry every time you pick up the child and come back, Brother Yu is just more sensible, and there is another girl, which is even more of a headache, and you will have to worry about it in the future." ”

Rui Xue saw that he was smiling a little gloatingly, so she couldn't help but glared at him fiercely, "The children haven't come back, why don't you worry at all, and you still talk like this." ”

Zhao Fengnian saw that his wife was annoyed, so he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her in his arms, and persuaded, "With Amber here, I am sure that they can't hurt a single hair, even if they suffer some hardships, it will be regarded as a lesson. ”

Ruixue tilted her head back and bumped him on the shoulder, and said angrily, "You still say! ”

"Okay, don't say it, don't say it." Zhao Fengnian smiled and straightened her sideburns, and said, "Niuniu's temperament is too wild, if it is really for her good, I should really teach her more rules." ”

"I understand this truth, but if you want to teach her to be a lady, it is absolutely impossible, you can only take her by your side often, and slowly teach some simple rules, and you can't force anything else."

The couple discussed like this for a while, Caiyun Caiyue came in with foot-washing water, Zhao Fengnian drove them down to rest, and washed his wife's feet with his own hands, the last time he escaped from the cave, Ruixue's heel rubbed off a large piece of bloody skin, although it was scabbed and fell off in the past few days, but it left some concubine-colored scars, always wash it and rub some scar ointment.

Rui Xue saw that Zhao Fengnian was busy, and suddenly laughed, "Fortunately, Bai Gongzi went to the city to hang out, if I saw you taking care of me like this at home, I would definitely be furious again." ”

Zhao Fengnian also chuckled, "The more he disdains this, the more he needs to take care of the women he may meet in the future." ”

Ruixue was about to speak, but a bright color suddenly slipped outside the window, and she immediately exclaimed, "It's broken, it's going to thunder!"

Sure enough, before her words fell, the thunder had followed, rumbling through the sky, and at the same time, under a tree behind the West Mountain, Niuniu was also screaming in horror, looking around in a panic to find a place to hide.

In fact, she regretted it less than half an hour after leaving the gate of the Zhao family.

She has lived in the mountains for many years, and because of the shortcomings of fear of thunder, she can see the clouds in the sky very accurately, and the wisps of cotton wool-like clouds are the precursors of the rain, she wants to turn her head and run, but she thinks that at this time her sister must have found out that she has run away, and she may have sent someone out to look for her. She hesitated like this, and couldn't let go of her face for a while, so she thought about finding a cave to avoid first.

Unexpectedly, the cave was not found, but the thunderstorm came first.

There are many dense forests in the western mountains, there are very few rocky and steep slopes, where is the cave so easy to find, in the end she had to curl up under a big tree, hugged the roots, listened to the thunder in her ears, trembled, whimpered and shouted, "Sister, Niuniu is wrong, Niuniu is afraid, sister, Niuniu is afraid!" ”

Wu Yu and Da Zhuang chased this dark red and ran for more than ten miles, seeing that the shadow disappeared after bypassing a big tree, they were dumbfounded when they rushed over, there was only a hole the size of a palm behind the tree, which was obviously the residence of a fox or some small beast, and it could not accommodate a big living person at all.

Wu Yu smashed his fist on the trunk of the tree in annoyance, "I wasted so much effort in vain, and I actually chased the wrong one." ”

Da Zhuang looked at the increasingly dense night around him, and his face was not good, he climbed halfway up to the big tree in three or two, and looked at it for a long time, and he was even more deflated, "Brother Yu, can you tell where this is, how do we go back?" ”

Wu Yu frowned, "This should be the west of the village, how many mountains did we climb just now?" It's more than ten miles from the village, right? ”

Da Zhuang jumped down, "Then let's hurry up and go east, maybe we can rush back before midnight." ”

The two of them planned very well, but unfortunately, the sky was as dark as ink, not even half a star, how to distinguish the direction, the two of them got together and wanted to find a way to return directly, but unfortunately, the thunderstorm came suddenly, the two boys jumped up, pointed to the sky and scolded, but after all, there was no way to take God, so they had to pick up a direction and run to find a place to shelter from the rain.

Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, the two of them were soaked, and it was not easy to walk through the woods, they were both extremely annoyed, Da Zhuang wiped the rain from his face and said, "Let's find a big tree to take shelter." ”

Wu Yu immediately objected, "No, my sister said that on rainy days, big trees are easy to cause thunder to fall, and they can kill people." ”

Da Zhuang was so frightened that Ji Lingling shivered, "Then what should I do?" ”

Wu Yu was also in trouble, looked around, and before he could speak, he suddenly seemed to hear a faint cry coming from somewhere.

In such a dark night, thunderstorms, and the sound of women crying, it was exactly the same as the ghost stories in the mouths of the old people in the village, and he immediately felt that his hair stood on end, and he retreated to Da Zhuang's side in a few steps, and whispered, "Listen, is there a woman crying?" ”

Da Zhuang listened with his ears for a while, then grabbed his arm suddenly, and said in a trembling voice, "Yes... It's someone crying, it can't be... Ghosts..."

"What the hell!" Wu Yu spoke loudly, hoping to give himself a strong courage, he pulled Da Zhuang's hand hard, "Maybe it's a little beast caught in the hunting trap, let's go over and take a look." ”

Da Zhuang couldn't wait to give birth to four legs, each hooked to the root of the tree, and pulled his body to not move, but unfortunately, Wu Yu was much stronger than him, and finally pulled him to the place where the cry came from, and stumbled over.

It just so happened that a bolt of lightning struck overhead again, and when the two of them saw the figure curled up under the root of the tree, they were overjoyed, and where there was any fear, they ran over and pulled the man up and shouted, "Niuniu, why are you here?" ”

Niuniu only had a thunder in her head, she only remembered curling herself up in a ball, where could I hear their shouts, Wu Yu shouted a few times and didn't see her answer, she was also anxious, reached out and hugged her in her arms, and said, "Niuniu is afraid that she is scared, let's quickly find a place to hide." ”

Da Zhuang was not afraid at this time, he ran out first, scurrying around, hoping to find a place to shelter from the rain, God Xu had just woken up and opened his ears, missed their scolding, and heard their hopes, he really had to drop a point of luck, let them find a three-foot-high gap under the rock wall, Wu Yu hugged Niuniu Nest in, there was just a small half of the place left, which could accommodate Da Zhuang, the three of them were crowded between small square inches, and they could hear the thunderstorm roaring outside, and they all breathed a long sigh.

Da Zhuang twisted the rain on his sleeve fiercely and said, "It's good to find Niuniu, so that the teacher doesn't have to worry about it." ”

"It's just that when she ran out, my sister might be worried at home." Wu Yu wanted to let go of Niuniu, but unfortunately this girl grabbed his front and shrunk her head in his arms and refused to move.

I was in a hurry just now, I ran away after hugging her, and at this time there was a place to hide, and I was hugging like this, Wu Yu was a little blushing and embarrassed, and wanted to throw her down, but I didn't feel good, so I looked at Da Zhuang in a dilemma, "How... What to do? ”

Da Zhuang looked at him with his hands raised in the air, looking helpless, laughing in his belly, but his face still looked like a matter of course, and said, "The place is small, you just hold it for a while, Shi Niang can say, you are Niuniu's brother." ”

Wu Yu frowned and thought about it, in the end, she still put down her hands, wrapped around Niuniu, and shrunk back in, Niuniu seemed to feel that someone was protecting her, her body moved, and she stuck closer and tighter.

In the hope of the two boys, the night rain not only did not clear up quickly, but it fell more and more heavily, as if a hole had leaked in the sky and drained the water of the heavenly river.

The two boys were sleepy in the waiting, and slowly fell asleep.

In the early morning, the first rays of daylight shine into the trees, and after being washed by the night rain, the grass and trees, which are becoming more and more green, straighten up their waists, pull out the most tender new leaves, and everywhere is full of life.

Da Zhuang sat in the outermost place, was woken up by the mountain birds flying and singing in the forest, rubbed his eyes, and wanted to stretch his waist, but his fist hit the rock above his head, and the falling rock fragments were scattered into his neck, causing him to crawl out with a bone, bending over and shaking for a long time, then he turned his head to look around, and turned around to pat Wu Yu with a happy face, "Brother Yu, get up quickly, it's dawn." ”

Wu Yu opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and was about to move his body, but immediately shouted, "Hey, I can't move my hands and feet." ”

Da Zhuang laughed and stepped forward to pat his arms and thighs for him, and he heard his screams louder and louder, and his mood became more and more cheerful.
