Chapter 53: The Phantom of the Dragonfly

I was a little puzzled, looking at his back, full of doubts, which one is this guy playing?

When Xiaokui entered his yard, I walked to the chair and sat down, and when I saw that my hands were full of black after being wet with water, I walked to the well again, and washed my hands with the well water.

When I dried my hands and wanted to go back to the chair to sit down and rest for a while, I saw that there were many slender and long wasps on the edge of the well, as if they could not find their way, flying around indiscriminately, and in a short time several wasps were still flying and whirling on the surface of the water......

At this time, I thought of the voice that commanded me to save Xiaokui, so I touched the flesh protrusion on my wrist with my hand, but I didn't feel anything, no sound came out, and no bright light flashed......

I don't know why this little Kui became like this, and I can't understand why the little ash at the bottom of the pot can actually cure him of this demonic disease. Could it be that I was sleeping in a chair and had hysteria myself?

I hurriedly put my hand on my forehead, there was still no sign of fever, how could I have hysteria, dreaming and hysteria, and my normal appearance, I can still distinguish it.

I sat back in my chair and thought about it over and over again, and after a while, I didn't want to think about it anymore, it didn't mean anything, anyway, this little Aoi didn't really have a hornet's stomach, didn't he go home well, why should I be so entangled.

It's still very hot, the water I drink in my stomach has been almost urinated by me, I sit under the dragon gate, a little bored, look left and right, there is nothing fun in my yard.

I inadvertently looked up and saw the row of thorn trees outside the wall of my yard, and I remembered that under the thorn tree, it was a pile of loess, and the loess may have been slightly damp because of the shade of the thorn tree, and there were many large and large holes on it, so I might as well go over and dig the ground to play.

Thinking of this, I stood up, ran to my house, and found my little diagonal shovel from the old stove that had long been used by the doorman, and jumped up and ran towards the Chen Thorn Tree.

Speaking of this ground cockroach, it's really fun. These things, the spiders that webbed between the branches of the trees, and the spiders that crawled on the ground, were probably close relatives, but this one was much darker than the other spiders, black-purple, and shiny.

What's very interesting is that this cockroach doesn't bite, no matter how big or small, as long as you catch them and put them in the palm of your hand, they are very well-behaved, lying on their palms, never struggling to run, and their bodies are soft as if they are fluffy, anyway, they are very slippery to the touch.

In our village, not anywhere under the tree, there are such fun ground cockroaches, some places are too hard, there is no shade to block, or people come and go too often and too noisy, this ground turtle will not go to burrow and build nests.

Around our yard, there are the most ricket holes in the Chen Thorn Tree, and they are all very easy to catch. Found a cockroach hole, usually the lid on the hole is covered, no, for a veteran of catching cockroaches like me, just look at it, you can see which piece of the ground has a cockroach hole.

As long as I see a hole in the hole, I will slowly approach, lie in front of the hole, and flick a few times with my fingers on the hole cover, and after a while, the fat cockroach will rush up from under the hole, and use a few legs to open the hole cover, and then show my small eyes to look at the hole, right here, I will insert the small shovel obliquely from the side according to the mouth of the toad, hehe, often the toad has not yet reacted, and I uproot it.

Then I sat on the ground and gently crushed the small piece of soil that was wrapped around the toad, and the black-purple and somewhat dim light of the toad would remain in my palm honestly.

Sometimes I dig up a lot of these cockroaches under the thorn tree, but I have to find a jar to fill them up, or when I put it on the ground and concentrate on digging up the next one, it will sneak away without me noticing. Sometimes the chickens that come over quietly, like pecking rice, eat them one by one.

I now have two large and one small cockroaches in my hand, they are all shrunk back, it seems that they have not come back to their senses, I see that they are in the sun, the color of their bodies is a little shining, and I think they are extremely funny.

He got up from the ground, and the little shovel was also thrown on the ground, so he stood under the thorn tree, trying to find a small stick to pull it to see if the two ground cockroaches would fight with each other like crickets.

However, when I was holding the cockroach in one hand and leaning out to find a small stick with the other, I didn't know where it flew from.

I hurriedly looked around, what was flying over, if it was a bird coming and pecking away, I could still see the shadow of the bird flying away at the speed of my eyes. But now I haven't found anything, and the two motlets are gone.

Obediently, outside my yard, I encountered another strange thing. I hurriedly bent down to pick up the small slashed shovel and took a few steps back, trying to run back to my yard. But just as I was about to dodge away, I saw something the size of my thumb move between the branches of the thorn tree, which was at eye level with me.

It was so shiny that the sun was shining on it, and it was still reflecting! I quickly took a closer look, but I didn't expect this thing to break away from the branches of the thorn tree, and with a slight flick of the wide but thin wings on its body, this thing quietly flew out of the long green thorns of the thorn tree.

Only then did I see clearly that it was a big dragonfly as thick as my thumb and as long as I was. This big dragonfly is really strong, and the round head that turns is as big as my thumb.

When I saw that it was a large dragonfly, its front jaw was still moving, as if it was chewing something. It seems that this guy took me by surprise and ate the cockroach I had just dug up.

I looked at the big dragonfly that was already flying, and it was really different from the dragonflies I usually saw. In fact, here in our Zhuangzi, there are many kinds of dragonflies.

The most common is that before the heavy rain, there are small red dragonflies flying around the wheat straw stacks, and there is a very big head, a long and thin belly, and a big dragonfly that looks like a white, black and cyan, and there is a very small dragonfly at the water's edge, generally this small dragonfly is as big as a big mosquito, they will fly slowly along the aquatic grass by the river, and when they see the tip of the grass exposed to the water, they will stop gently, just like a helicopter, and do not move for a long time.
