"The pumpkin house made by Grandpa Delin is beautiful, he can carve stars and moons on the pumpkin house, and he can also grow seven-star flowers on the pumpkin house, after lighting the lights at night, it is so beautiful and beautiful, many children have it, you will be very envious when you see it." Looking at the little girl's smiling eyes, she knew that her grandfather Delin had promised to decorate the pumpkin house for her.

Smiling and shaking his head, although he was only a teenager, he didn't regard himself as a child, from a very young age, childlike fun no longer belonged to him.

"The most beautiful pumpkin house is the brother of the flower monkey, oh, on that high hill, his pumpkin house is the largest, and it can also rotate, and you can see the stars in the sky in the house at night, and when there is a moon, the moonlight shines in, and you can see all kinds of moonlight of various shapes on the wall and on the ground, which is magical. Shang Xi's tone was not without envy.

Chao Shun followed Shang Xi's small hand and saw the rotating pumpkin house, except for the stone storehouse, it was basically the tallest building in Dashan Village. The pumpkin house is beautifully decorated, surrounded by vines, dotted with colorful flowers, and slowly swirling, like a dream cabin. There is a nest of birds on the roof, and the birds are chirping, calling for the return of their mother.

"He's so big, and he still lives in a pumpkin house, it's a shame. But the big sisters like to go there. Shang Xi stuck out his little tongue and grinned, and his smile and the bud in his arms complemented each other.

After walking through the pumpkin field, there is still a vegetable garden in front of me, and the cabbages that are one person tall are lined up in rows. The tomato branches grow as tall as a tree and are full of tomatoes the size of a plate. In the sweet potato field, one by one the sweet potatoes showed half of their bodies, lying on the ground, like upside-down boats.

"The roasted sweet potatoes are delicious, my mother said, and in a few days we will be able to pull the sweet potatoes." It's fun to pull sweet potatoes. Shang Xi sat in the middle of a gourd-shaped sweet potato, very happy.

Although Chao had never entered a crop before, he could also see the richness of this crop.

"Why? they've all grown so big!" Chao couldn't resist the temptation of curiosity, and finally asked Shang Xi.

"Because there are earth spirits in the ground, they are a group of big guys with bad tempers. They like to hide in the dirt and are generally not seen. However, there are water spirits in the large lake in the village, they are very common, and they are there. ”

Chao saw that there was a small lake with dense aquatic plants in the past in the crop field, and the green aquatic plants covered the small lake, if it wasn't for Shang Xi's reminder, Chao couldn't have seen that it would be a lake at all. ”

"Shui Ling is a very naughty and very cute little guy, they are afraid of the sun, they are hiding under the lotus leaves, when you are healed, I will take you to see it." "Shang Xi is very enthusiastic as a tour guide.

Speaking of which, this is the first time he has really walked into Dashan Village, and he is full of curiosity about everything here.

Here, there is no one who is idle, everyone is busy, even the half-grown children look busy with a lot of worries. More than a dozen children greeted Shang Xi in the cabbage field. They're not even as tall as a cabbage.

"Brother Ono, what are you doing? Could it be that another big cow is coming?" Shang Xi asked a boy with a straw hat.

The boy named Xiao Ye put on a serious face and replied to Shang Xi in an old-fashioned tone, very ridiculous, "Yes, it's a matter of worrying, so many big cows have ruined a lot of crops, what is the name of that brother next to you? Is he here to help?"

"Brother Chao, shall we go and help them?"

"Good. ”

Ono didn't thank Asaha and seemed to think that this was what Asaha should do.

The big cow is actually just a snail, but it is very large, knee-high, the spiral shell is dotted with colorful patterns, the crystal tentacles stick out of the shell, carefully look around, as soon as you meet a person, you will immediately shrink into the shell, after the person leaves, you will secretly stick out your head and steal cabbage.

The children picked up the snail shells and brought them out of the vegetable patch.

A child is a child. Laughing at the inefficiency of these kids.

The shell of the big snail is not hard, and when you poke it at the wooden crutch, you will poke the big snail in half, and the soft and sticky snail body will slide out of the shell, and it will be dried by the sun after a while.

"Ahh

Chao is inexplicable. "They eat the crops, shouldn't they be killed?"

"They just ate a little bit of the crop, so there's no need to kill them?"

"If you don't kill them, won't they come back?"

"Why kill them when you come back?"

The other children also looked at each other as they should be, and even Shang Xi pouted and looked at Chao with a critical gaze.

was taught a lesson by a group of children younger than himself, so that Chao was speechless for a while.

Asa couldn't understand that there was anything wrong with killing the weak creatures that were in his way, but looking at the serious faces of these children, it was obvious that they had done something wrong.

"You're going to apologize to it!" Ono said firmly.

"Yes, you have to apologize to it and promise not to kill its companions again. The other children said the same.

"Brother Chao, apologize to it quickly. Shang Xi made a small face.

Looking at the shriveled snails on the ground, and at the serious faces of a group of children, I thought it was ridiculous. "I'm not going to apologize to a snail. ”

"You!" Ono blushed with anger and rushed forward to knock Asai to the ground.

Looking at a group of small eyes that were staring at him, the pain in his body reminded him that he was now vulnerable, and he snorted coldly, "Well, you are better than me, and I apologize to you." ”

"Not to us, but to it. A little girl corrected.

Apologizing to a snail, if it was once upon a time, it would have been unimaginable.

Chao was not stubborn, and reluctantly apologized to the dried snail, "I'm sorry." ”

"Oh, he apologized, he apologized!" cheered a dozen children together, as if they had won a battle.

Looking at these cheering children, Chao was even more confused, he really couldn't understand why these children were guarding the snails that were stealing their crops, why they were willing to take the trouble to remove these big snails over and over again, and never had the idea of killing them once and for all?

Since childhood, that person has told himself that the weak eat the strong, the strong control the whole world, and the weak are just pawns of the strong, and the whole meaning of their existence is only to satisfy the interests of the strong, otherwise, there is no need to exist. This is true for people, let alone ant-like creatures like snails.

But what's the matter with the people here? Why do they care so much about the weak, why do they care about the life or death of the weak? That's the case with Delin and Shande, it's the same with Lina, it's the same with the kids. Chao couldn't figure it out, it seemed that the thoughts of the people of Dashan Village were very different from their own ideas, as if the ideas they had learned since childhood were the norms of the two worlds.

Could this really be another world?

In a flash of inspiration, there was a tiny thing that flashed in his mind, but he couldn't see it clearly, he understood that it was something hidden in his heart, something he had been looking for and longing for. The more desperate he tried to grasp it, the more the clue slipped out of his mind and finally disappeared. With no one to remind him, he shook his head, hoping that maybe there would be another encounter.

He looked at the children, they picked up the big snails back and forth, raced with each other, and when they fell, they would immediately get up, cheer each other, support each other, and their little red faces were full of satisfaction.

The world of simplicity.

Although he didn't admit it, there was a trace of jealousy in his heart, in the original world, how could there be such a simple happiness, a little tempting, Chao hoped that he was also one of them, but he didn't join, but turned around and left alone.

"Who killed this big cow?" asked the children in the field when a strong young man saw the snail carcass as he passed by the crop field.

"Captain Pipun, it's Chao. Ono replied.

Pi Peng was very angry, "The hateful outsider, he is really ruthless, I must let the old village chief drive him away!"

"No, Brother Pipun, Brother Chao has already apologized. Shang Xi took Pipun's hand and persuaded.

Ono also said, "Captain Pipun, he promised that he would not do it again, you don't drive him away, otherwise he will be bitten to death by the demonic beasts outside the village." ”

"Hmph, outsiders can't be trusted...... The withering of the beast repellent grass must have something to do with him. Pippon didn't promise them. He angrily went to report to Old Delin, and vowed to drive the foreign boy away.
