Chapter Seventy-Two: The Legend of the Dog Monster
The dogs were panting half-back, half-grunting, long tongues sticking out of their teeth, and at the same time staring at them with their eyes fixed, ready to pounce on them again and fight, but their eyes also showed timidity. The two of them held the weapons in their hands tightly, pressing forward step by step, and they were ready to meet them at any time.
Just when the two were facing each other nervously, they only heard a shout in mid-air: "Children, I'm coming!" With the sound of the voice, a black figure descended from the sky and rushed straight into the sky.
Xiaokong took a closer look, it was the strange dog, and its body was even bigger at this time, as big as a calf.
Seeing the strange dog, Xiao Kong pounced, dodged, and attacked with two hammers in turn. The dog shook its body twice in quick succession, dodging the two hammer attacks, and arched itself for another assault. Seeing this, Xiao Yi detoured behind the strange dog, and took advantage of it not being waved with a bow. The dog realized that it was too late to sneak up on someone, and the bow was firmly drawn on its back.
The dog was hit and fell to the ground at once, Xiao Yi saw the situation and suddenly pounced on the dog's back, he pressed the dog's head, picked up a fist as big as a sandbag, and hit the dog's head one by one. Xiaokong took the opportunity to clean up the remaining wild dogs.
Xiao Yi desperately beat the strange dog, making a "hitting" sound in his mouth while beating. After a while, the dog lost his strength, and saw it lying on the ground with six limbs, no longer struggling, no longer barking.
Seeing this, Xiaokong was afraid that he would beat the dog to death, so he quickly stopped Xiao Yi, but Xiao Yi was angry, and he couldn't hold back and raised his fist to fight again.
Seeing that his life was not guaranteed, the strange dog finally relented, and it struggled weakly on the ground with its head, and said, "Don't fight, I'll obey, I'll obey!"
"Huh?" Xiao Yi stopped his fist as the strange dog spoke. He didn't expect the dog to succumb so quickly.
"Aren't you amazing, why don't you fight?" Xiao Yi said.
"I'm convinced, please stop fighting. The dog still begged for mercy.
"Okay, spare your life!" Xiao Yi stood up and glanced at the strange dog, and said stupidly.
"Tell me, what's the matter with you, why did you help that bully fight against us?" asked Sora, knowing the necessary story.
Speaking of this strange dog, there really is a story.
A few years ago, there was a family surnamed Gou in this seaside village, this family's surname was Gou, and the male owner of their family also loved dogs. The family has always had a dog. But it's strange to say, this big brother Gou has been raising dogs around him, but this dog always doesn't live long, their dogs generally live for a few months before dying, and the longest lifespan is only more than a year.
Brother Gou was not convinced, the dog was raised again when it died, and it was raised again when it died, and many dogs were kept around him, but these dogs all died without exception after living for less than a year.
Until one day, Brother Gou asked for a puppy from a neighbor, and the new puppy he asked for was chubby, black, and tiger-headed, and seemed very energetic. Brother Gou has liked this dog very much since he saw him and treated him like a child. This little black dog seems to be particularly related to him, the relationship between the two can not be more intimate, this black dog also grows very well in Gou's eldest brother's house, it grows out in less than a few months under his careful care, and the body has begun to see fat, and the hair is also jet black and shiny. Brother Gou also has a special love for it.
It's strange to say, Brother Gou's dog used to die in a year at most, but when the black dog grew to a year old, it was still alive and vibrant, and it didn't feel strange at all.
This black dog is living happily in Brother Gou's house again, and when he is one and a half years old, he is still alive and well, and there is no illness or disaster. In this way, the dog has been living in Gou's house for several years and has been safe and sound, nothing has happened, and he has not even been sick.
The people in the village were very curious, and privately said that this black dog and Brother Gou were fated, and they met together.
That year, once Brother Gou pushed a cart to the market to sell grain, but because it had just rained and the road was slippery, when he passed by a small bridge at the entrance of the village, the car slipped and the grain fell into the river.
He was unwilling to lose the grain after a year of hard work, so he jumped into the water, intending to fish it out. But he never thought that the water level of the river had risen sharply because of the rain that had just fallen, and he couldn't reach it after jumping down. And what's worse is that this big brother Gou doesn't know how to water.
In this way, he was like a fried fritter in the water, fluttering up and down in the water, and then his body was slowly sinking, and he was about to sink into the water and drown in the river, but he was never discovered.
Just when Brother Gou was about to die in the water, suddenly his big black dog rushed from somewhere, and the black dog didn't care whether he understood water or not, so he jumped into the water at once, and it pulled the water surface with its limbs, bit Brother Gou's clothes with its mouth, and forcibly dragged him ashore. After Brother Gou went ashore, he lay on the shore, panting with a snort, glad that he had picked up a life.
But after saving him, the dog did not stop, but jumped into the water again, and a fierce man plunged into the water, trying to catch up the sacks of grain.
After the dog got into the water, Brother Gou's heart also hung in his throat, just when he was worried, but he never thought that the dog showed its head out of the water, and the rope of the grain bag was still biting in its mouth, it was biting while swimming towards the shore, and finally after exhausting all the effort, it finally dragged the grain to the shore, and Brother Gou took advantage of the situation to grab the bag and dragged the grain ashore.
Just when Brother Gou thought that the black dog would go ashore, the black dog plunged into the water again, because there were still a few bags of grain under the water. After a while, sure enough, the black dog showed its head again, still biting the rope of the grain bag in its mouth, and it was also with great effort to drag the grain to the shore.
In this way, the black dog dragged three bags of grain in a row, but when he plunged into the water again and was about to drag out the last bag of grain, it finally ran out of strength and never came out of the water again.
Brother Gou waited on the shore for a long time, but he didn't see the shadow of the black dog for a long time, he felt bad, so he went to the farmer's house next to him to find a bamboo pole, tied a hook, and fished desperately in the river, he fished the black dog out of the water after fishing for most of the day.
But at this time, the black dog was already dead, no matter how Brother Gou pressed its stomach and how he put it on the back of the cow, but even after the water in its stomach came out, it still did not wake up. It was indeed drowned.
After Brother Gou lost his black dog, he was in pain, as if he had lost his relatives, so he also found a place to dig a pit and buried the dog like he did with his relatives.
After losing the dog, Brother Gou missed him a lot, and he had a deep relationship with the dog, and the dog died to save him, so he couldn't stop his feelings for the dog.
This big brother Gou has never had a dog since he lost this dog, maybe he knows that he will never meet such a good dog again.
But he said that there is a kind of medicinal herb planted in Brother Gou's field, called Shou Wu. This Shou Wu is a very magical herb, he can cure gray hair and other diseases, in addition to some folk legends about Shou Wu, some even say that it is as magical as ginseng.
One year, when Brother Gou was in the Shouwu in the field, he found that this year's Shouwu grew very well, not only big but also in good condition. When he was happily digging medicine, he dug and dug but dug up a particularly large shou wu, because he often planted shou wu, he knew that the size of this shou wu was generally the size of a sweet potato, but when he dug this shou wu, he found that this shou wu was digging bigger and bigger, until the surrounding soil pit had the size of a pot lid and did not see the shou wu exposed all over the body.
Brother Gou continued to dig, dig and dig, he finally dug out this big shou wu, but when he dug out the whole shou wu, he was stunned after removing the vine, going to the soil, and washing the mud, it turned out that the shape of this shou wu was very much like a big dog, he thought about it again, and remembered, it turned out that this place out of the shou wu was the place where he buried the black dog that year.
