Twentieth century, late eighties......

Bayan Town, Bayan County, Harbin, Heilongjiang, China......

Ye Shuangqi, an eighteen-year-old young man, is tall and handsome. But like most young people, they are sloppy and idle, and they don't know what the future looks like or how to meet it.

At a very young age, his parents disappeared. At that time, people in the town talked about it, saying that Ye Shuangqi's parents admired foreign countries and smuggled them to the United States. In those days, the excessive pursuit of material things was considered sinful, and fleeing to the United States was even more treason to the enemy, which made the Ye family unable to raise their heads.

With the passage of time, Ye Shuangqi's longing for his parents gradually turned into hatred, and gradually changed from hatred to indifference. After all, they had been away from him for so long that the images in their memories were blurred.

Although he has no parents, Ye Shuangqi is still lucky, his grandfather and grandmother have always been by his side and raised him as an adult. Grandpa is a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War, retired from the army at home, and the treatment is good, enough for the family to eat and drink. Grandma was the former director of the town women's office, not only served as a leader, but also read and write, and was quite talented among the older generation at that time.

Perhaps because he lost his parents since he was a child, his grandparents love Ye Shuangqi very much. Although the grandfather who was born in the military was short-tempered, he was very kind to Ye Shuangqi every time, never moved a finger from him, and often gave him pocket money. This made the children of the same age in the town envious of Ye Shuangqi.

Maybe it's because of this doting, or maybe it's because of the disgust inspired by his parents' abandonment, Ye Shuangqi hasn't studied well since he was a child. Although he had a relationship with his grandfather's activities, Ye Shuangqi only barely finished high school and failed to be admitted to college. There are no books to read, which is a relief for Ye Shuangqi - now he is finally free and can do what he likes.

Speaking from the heart, Ye Shuangqi didn't know what to do in the future. Since you don't have any lofty goals, let's have fun in time. If Ye Shuangqi has any characteristics, it may be that he is very curious. The more bizarre things are, the more rare and rare things are, the more interested he is. When he was very young, in order to make him happy, his grandparents would tell him stories. Although the level of storytelling of his grandparents is not very good, he is still fascinated. The stories of his grandparents were told over and over again, and there was nothing new, so he went to the neighbor's house to listen to the stories told by his uncle and aunt, and the more strange and new things he had, the more he loved to listen to them.

When he went to school, Ye Shuangqi became literate, and began to collect some books with anecdotes to read. After all, the town's resources are limited, and Ye Shuangqi can't get too many "good books". Therefore, history class has become one of the places where Ye Shuangqi absorbs nutrients. The history teacher of the middle school in the town does not have much knowledge of official history, but he knows a lot about wild history, and he often tells it together, which makes Ye Shuangqi listen to it with relish. Among the many courses, history is a course that Ye Shuangqi has never failed.

As he grew older and taller day by day, Ye Shuangqi's curiosity became stronger and stronger, and his mind was full of all kinds of strange theories and supernatural events.

In the past few days after graduating from high school, Ye Shuangqi and a few friends in the town have been messing around. Ye Shuangqi told the strange things he knew so vividly that several friends were dumbfounded and dumbfounded when they heard it, and they all admired him so much. Ye Shuangqi is comfortable with this kind of adoring gaze, and sometimes he can smile and bloom in his dreams.

On this day, Ye Shuangqi came to find a few friends to "talk about the scriptures". Who knew that everyone was not interested in him today, it turned out that Zhang Tongsheng got a puppy, and everyone was watching the puppy. This dog was much smaller than the native dogs of the town, but his body was extremely well-proportioned, and his golden hair was shiny, and his ears were surprisingly large compared to his small face, standing upright like two triangles, and his eyes were not dripping back and forth. Friends happily discussed, some said it was a foreign breed, others said it was a cross between a fox and a dog.

When Ye Shuangqi saw this strange thing, he immediately fell ill, scratching his heart with a hundred paws, trying to get the puppy. So, he grinded hard against Zhang Tongsheng. Zhang Tongsheng's head shook like a rattle, and he didn't agree with anything. Ye Shuangqi understood that it would be difficult to achieve his wish without a little blood, he gritted his teeth and said, "Tongsheng, if you give me this puppy, I will give you my grandfather's military kettle!"

"What? are you really fake?" Zhang Tongsheng couldn't believe his ears.

This military kettle is no ordinary object. It is said that Ye Shuangqi's grandfather went to the Korean battlefield and fought with American devils in the dark. In a fierce battle, an American GI was killed and the kettle was obtained from his waist. This kettle is made of stainless steel, and the body of the kettle is engraved with a very delicate pattern, which is a motif of the Virgin. After seizing this trophy, Ye Shuangqi's grandfather couldn't put it down, not only because of the exquisite workmanship, but also because it represented the honor of a soldier's victory. After retiring from the army, this kettle became the best object for grandpa to remember his comrades-in-arms and the past.

Ye Shuangqi asked his grandfather for this kettle several times, but his grandfather refused. Later, he couldn't stand Ye Shuangqi's soft grinding and hard foaming, and his grandfather agreed to put the kettle in Ye Shuangqi's room as an ornament. But grandpa solemnly warned Ye Shuangqi that he must not break or lose the kettle, let alone drink water from the kettle.

Ye Shuangqi didn't know that he took out the kettle behind his grandfather's back and showed it off in front of his friends. At that time, Zhang Tongsheng was greedy and took out all his good things in exchange, but Ye Shuangqi resolutely disagreed. This time, for the sake of this puppy, Ye Shuangqi was actually willing to exchange the kettle, Zhang Tongsheng didn't expect it anyway. After thinking for a while, Zhang Tongsheng nodded.

Ye Shuangqi rushed home, arrived in his room, took a pillow towel and wrapped the kettle, glanced at the next room Grandpa didn't find it, and ran back quickly. One hand to the pot, the other hand to the dog, the goods are clear, each has their wish.

Ye Shuangqi picked up the puppy and immediately felt its body temperature, and his curiosity was greatly satisfied. While stroking the puppy's back, he asked, "Tongsheng, where did you get this dog?" Zhang Tongsheng played with the kettle, did not raise his head, and replied absentmindedly: "Dongshan." ”

What, Dongshan? Ye Shuangqi couldn't help but be shocked......

Seeing Ye Shuangqi bring back a cute puppy, grandma was also very happy, and found a cardboard box to spread a cotton mat as a temporary kennel for the puppy, and brought two iron boxes to fill the puppy with water and rice. Grandma said: "This is a little, does it have a name?" Ye Shuangqi replied: "No, grandma, you can name it." Grandma smiled: "Look at it all over the golden body, and its eyes are rolling around, let's call it a golden bell!" Ye Shuangqi felt very satisfied, and greeted the puppy with a golden bell. The puppy seemed to be extremely human, and as soon as he heard the golden bell, he raised his head and looked at Ye Shuangqi. Grandma also called the golden bell, the puppy looked at grandma again, the moment the eyes of the man and the dog made eye contact, the grandma was suddenly startled, and murmured, "What does it feel wrong......?"

Jin Ling has been hugged back for a few days, Ye Shuangqi and his grandmother take care of it, the water and rice are timely, and occasionally they can be served with some meat, Jin Ling eats with relish, and gets along very closely with Ye Shuangqi and grandma. Although grandpa has little interest in small animals, out of love for his grandson, he will occasionally tease Jin Ling.

On this day, Ye Shuangqi and his friends talked all morning, and when they heard their stomach gurgling and calling the police, they remembered to go home for dinner. As soon as he stepped into the door, his grandfather's tall body appeared in front of him, and he said with a gloomy face: "How did you get the golden bell?" Ye Shuangqi had a premonition that the situation was not good, and replied stumblingly: "Friend...... Give...... I sent it. Grandpa shouted: "Where is my military kettle?" Ye Shuangqi was stunned for a moment, where could he still make a sound. Grandpa's big hand was raised high above his head, but he finally held back, and his love for his grandson overcame his anger. Grandpa went back to his room without saying a word, and never came out, and he didn't eat lunch or dinner. Ye Shuangqi was sorry and scared, lying on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, wondering how to get the kettle back from Zhang Tongsheng's hand. suffered like this, until the second half of the night, Ye Shuangqi fell asleep in a daze.

The next morning, Ye Shuangqi, who was asleep, suddenly felt cold on the left side of his face, and not only opened his eyes. He couldn't believe his eyes, the military kettle was actually on the pillow, and he had just turned over and touched the left side of his face. Ye Shuangqi hurriedly turned over and got up, went down to the ground to open the door, and looked around the courtyard and outside the courtyard, but there was not even a figure. Ye Shuangqi thought to himself: Zhang Tongsheng, this kid is quite interesting, I guess I feel that this kettle is too valuable, so I sent it back again. He was thinking about how to return the kettle to his grandfather, when suddenly Zhang Tongsheng's voice outside the courtyard rang out: "Ye Shuangqi, you kid is not interesting enough, why did you steal the kettle again!" Ye Shuangqi couldn't help but feel shocked, thinking: This is weird!

was hesitating whether to go out, grandpa was alarmed, broke into the house and saw Ye Shuangqi holding a kettle. Grandpa was furious: "Since you have exchanged with others, how can you steal it back? Such a small baby has actually done the business of stealing chickens and dogs!" After that, he snatched the kettle with one hand, walked to the yard and handed it to Zhang Tongsheng, and after some comfort, Zhang Tongsheng left angrily.

Ye Shuangqi was like a fog in the clouds, the kettle was indeed not stolen back by himself, and it seemed that it was definitely not sent back by Zhang Tongsheng with kindness, so how did he come back? He wanted to explain a few words to his grandfather, but he didn't know where to start.

Three days later, something strange happened again, and the magical kettle returned to the Ye family quietly. When the family of three was having breakfast, they found the military kettle firmly on the lying cabinet almost at the same time. Grandpa was really angry this time, and slapped Ye Shuangqi in the face with a big hand, scolding: "Little rabbit cub, I'll let you steal!" Grandma hurriedly grabbed grandpa while comforting Ye Shuangqi, and said warmly: "Child, are you okay, does it hurt!" was beaten by his grandfather for the first time since he was a child, Ye Shuangqi should have cried out loud, but at this time he didn't expect this at all, and was stunned by the kettle that suddenly came home three times twice - what the hell is going on? He turned his head suddenly, only to see Jin Ling's dark eyes staring at him, and his expression seemed to be smiling......

In the blink of an eye, it is August 15, and every household in the town is busy with the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is very lively. Grandma cooked delicious meals and made a few mooncakes in the town, and the three of them feasted on them. Ye Shuangqi sandwiched two pieces of pork ribs, put them in the box of Jinling's rice, stroked its furry back, and said with a smile: "You have been here for several months, you can be regarded as a member of the family, eat something good." I don't know if Jin Ling understood his words, or saw the ribs excitedly, circled around Ye Shuangqi a few times, and picked Ye Shuangqi's calf with his paws, and his tail swung flexibly. The three of them couldn't help but look at each other and smile, and they all felt that this puppy was quite human.

At night, the noise of the people fell silent, and the bright moonlight filled the town. Ye Shuangqi gradually fell into a dream and snored slightly. In the haze, he heard someone calling his name, "Ye-Shuang-Qi...... Leaf-double-odd ......". Over and over again, Ye Shuangqi couldn't help but wake up. With his sleepy eyes open, he looked around to his side for a week, and couldn't help but be surprised!

A familiar and unfamiliar figure appeared before him, and it stood up like a human, a pair of dark eyes staring at him......
