Chapter 47: Piyu is missing
The roar of the little man came out, and the dog lay there, just squeaking and humming, and not barking as wildly as I expected.
I was relieving myself a little when a light suddenly came on in one of the windows.
Xiaoman and I were startled and hurriedly hid behind the bushes.
After a while, the footsteps were getting closer, and Iggy pushed the door through his clothes and walked out.
"Daman, what's your name? What did you find? ”
They call this dog Daman, and the aborigines around me are called Xiaoman, I can't help but feel a little sad when I look at the Xiaoman around me, the aborigines of Australia are really no different from dogs in the eyes of these white people.
The dog didn't react, and when he saw Eagle come out, he wagged his tail and was happy.
Eagle unchained the dog, and the dog circled around him with great affection, and then the dog ran straight to our bush.
I looked at it and said in my heart, this time it's over, I have to hold the dagger on my waist, once the dog comes forward to bite someone, I will slaughter the big man first, protect the little man, as for Iggy, I am sure that he will not be able to run ten steps, and then I have to coerce Ig to escape, but in this way I am afraid that I will become a thorn in the governor's side and a thorn in the flesh.
The dog barked twice in front of the bushes, and put the dog's head in, I didn't dare to make a sound, but Xiaoman's eyes widened, and there was an incomprehensible expression on his face, the dog looked at Xiaoman, sniffed his nose on Xiaoman's face, and retracted his head.
Eagle followed and asked, "Daman, is there anything?" ”
The dog retracted his head and ran away wagging his tail. My hanging heart let go slightly, and at the same time, I felt incredible, why the dog was not half hostile to Xiaoman, it was really strange!
Eagle went to the kennel, grabbed some dog food from a pocket, and put it in the dog's food bowl. When the dog saw that there was food, he ran back with joy.
Iggy put the dog on a leash and patted the dog on the head, "Take care of the house." Then he turned and walked away.
When the light in the window went out, and after about ten minutes, Xiaoman walked out from behind the tree and walked straight to the kennel.
Xiao Man walked near the kennel, the dog turned a blind eye and was still eating the dog food in the basin, but Xiao Man squatted down, picked up from the ground, and then said hello to me. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk over quietly.
It turned out that there was a manhole cover for the sewer next to the kennel, which had been moved away by Xiaoman at the moment, and Xiaoman pointed down and motioned for me to go down first.
When I saw the manhole cover, I already understood that the hole that Xiaoman was digging at me on the top of the mountain turned out to be digging a sewer.
Without further ado, I had no choice but to go down the well, and when I arrived at the well, a pungent rancid stench hit me, which was almost disgusting.
Xiaoman also deftly drilled into the sewer, holding up the manhole cover with both hands to restore the manhole cover, the dog suddenly probed down by the well, Xiaoman reached out and touched the dog's head, and the dog also licked his face.
I saw it in my eyes, and it seemed that this was a parting ritual, and the dog's eyes had both the reluctance of his friend to leave, and the envy of seeing Xiaoman's freedom.
For a while, I really didn't know how to define Xiaoman, is he a human or a beast?
In the pungent smell, I forced myself to calm down, and then identified the direction, groping forward, the pipe was very narrow in some places, just enough for me to drill through, but the sedimented sludge was too much, here, Xiaoman and I had to lie on our backs in the mud, expose our faces, use our hands and feet to squirm forward.
After walking about a few dozen meters, I saw a shaft. I crept up quietly, then gently lifted the manhole cover, looked around, and saw that we were outside the walls of the Doge's Palace, but it was not good to get out of here, and the sentries on the wall would surely find out.
Like a mouse, I slowly retracted my head and went back to the hole, and then I pulled Xiaoman on, until I walked a few more shafts, and when I looked again, I found that the shaft was in a field of flowers, so I lifted the manhole cover and drilled out.
Suddenly a breath of fresh air was inhaled into the lungs, which was extremely comfortable.
But look at the body again, it smells rancid.
Xiaoman is even worse than me, his long hair is still dripping with stinky soup and water, but his expression is extremely excited. Yes, he was kept as an animal for two years, and at this moment he finally escaped.
I looked around, vaguely passing by this place, and at this moment, I could only go to Piyu.
It's really interesting to think about yourself, I have gone to Piyou several times, but I found that each time it was more embarrassing, I went with a bare ass in front of me, and this time I was covered in stinky mud.
I haven't known Pieu for long, but every time she accepts me, I'm afraid that there will be no second person in the world who is better to me than Piyu.
I told Xiaoman that I planned to go to Piyu, who was a good friend of mine.
Xiao Man stared at the end of the street, for a long time, he looked at me with tears in his eyes, pointed to the distance, I understood, Xiao Man didn't want to go with me, he probably didn't want to contact any modern people anymore, he was going home.
I took out a rope and tied his long hair, which is a common ritual used by Aboriginal Australians before they go out hunting, and this rope that holds his long hair together represents the blessing and concern of his family.
Xiao Man pointed to my heart, and then to himself, and he told me that we are friends who can exchange hearts with each other.
Xiao Man crossed the road and jumped into the dark woods, his body was extremely flexible, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The Gurui tribe used to live in Koala Mountain, and there are many koalas on the mountain, which is very interesting. But then people found gold mines there, and the good days of the Gurui and Koalas came to an end, and the natives of Xiaoman were killed and captured by the robbers of those civilizations, but only a few tribesmen fled, and even the old Bama did not know where the Gurui had gone? Escaping from that cell, Xiaoman is like a fish back to the sea, all the mountains and wilderness of Australia can be roamed by him, I hope he will find his tribe sooner, I silently blessed.
I decided to go to Piyu and walked towards her villa. On the way, I saw a small river, I jumped into the river, washed away all the stinky mud in the sewer, and when I got back to the shore, I could still smell some sourness, but it was much better.
The lights were still on in Piyu's villa, and I was about to run to the gate and ask the cat and dog to open the door for me, when there was footsteps and two men talking and walking towards the door.
I ducked to one side behind the tall plane tree in front of the door.
With a creak, the door opened. Hamid and Qian Yan walked out, followed by Chaoguang.
Hamid was very dissatisfied and said, "Qianyan, how did you lose Piyu?" ”
Qian Yan bowed and said respectfully: "Prince, don't worry, I have already asked a cat and a dog to find it." ”
"There's no room for a mistake with Piyu, you know?"
"Hey, Piyu is so worry-free, why doesn't she know that the prince has a heart for her." Qian Yan said helplessly, shaking his head again and again.
"Don't be verbose, go find it as soon as possible."
Qian Yan was full of promises, "Yes, yes, prince, you go slowly." ”
The prince and Chaoguang walked out of the gate and walked away.
I thought about it behind the tree, it seems that Piyu is not in the villa area, so where did she go?
I immediately thought of Tomoko, she should have gone to Tomoko, the two of them are very good friends. Piyu is helpless in Australia, and if he runs away from home, he can only go to Tomoko.
Thinking of this, I raised my legs and walked towards the Hokkaido martial arts hall.
When I walked to the Hokkaido martial arts hall, it was getting dark. The door of the martial arts hall has been opened, and several servants are cleaning the courtyard to welcome the new day. I explained to them what I was going to do, and a servant went into the back hall to report it.
After a while, Tomoko ran out.
"Brother Bug, why did you come to me early in the morning?" Tomoko pointed to my clothes and said, "Brother Bug, why don't you have a sleeve in your clothes, and are you going to run naked again?" ”
"Is Piyu with you?" I didn't answer Tomoko's words and asked bluntly.
Tomoko was surprised, "Isn't she with you?" ”
I chuckled in my heart, Piyu wasn't here with Tomoko, and I couldn't help but frown when I thought of this. "No, she's not at home, she's not with you, where is she going?"
"When I came back from the Governor's Palace that day, I thought she was going to go with you."
I shook my head: "After you left, Piyu left alone, and it seems that he didn't go home." ”
"Did the five falcons who kidnapped her a few days ago take her away again?"
"No, the Five Falcon was sent by Hamid, and Hamid is also looking for her now, which means that the Five Falcon did not find him."
Tomoko also made a difficulty, and couldn't guess where Piyu had gone.
At this time, Sasaki also ran out, "Master, your old man is here. Why don't you sit in the house. ”
I said angrily: "It's still a fart, your master has lost it." ”
Sasaki was taken aback, "Where did my sister go?" ”
"I won't come to you if I want to." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Tomoko shouted, "Brother Bug, you wait a minute," and then told Sasaki to find me clean clothes.
I was so anxious that I could not take care of my clothes, and I said "no need" and was leaving.
Zhizi grabbed me, "Brother Bug, don't worry, you still have to change your clothes." After changing clothes, I asked these samurai in the martial arts hall to look for them separately, and whoever finds them first will take Piyu back to the martial arts hall, and then let Sasaki go to Piyu's house, if Piyu comes back, it is better to notify everyone as soon as possible, than if you go to find it alone. ”
I nodded, and Tomoko was in danger, and in a moment he had already thought of a plan. In contrast, I don't seem calm.
After changing my clothes, I left the martial arts hall and looked around for Piyu.
I searched for a whole day, almost all the streets of Brydon, and I didn't see a shadow of Pew.
From morning till sunset, I didn't drink a sip of water, I didn't eat a grain of rice, thirst and hunger made me shake a little, and I felt in my pockets, only to find that I didn't have a penny.
I sat dejectedly on a stone on the corner of the street, and there I was in a daze.
At this moment, a beautiful figure came and stood in front of me.
"The chef of the Governor's Palace, why did you come here to bask in the sun?"
Listening to the voice, I knew it was Luna. She is still wearing the red dress she likes, which is particularly eye-catching in this lively street market. She looked at me with her hands behind her back and a smile. Behind Luna is Xiao Bu, who is still red-haired, wears stud earrings, and looks cynical.
I looked at Luna, "Luna, I want you to do me a favor?" ”
Luna asked curiously, "What does Chef Shen need me to help with?" ”
I raised my right hand and said, "Help me to my feet." I've been running around in Braidon City for a day, and I'm almost tired and falling apart, and since last night until now, the water and rice haven't entered, and thanks to you coming early, and a little later, I guess I'm going to be on the streets. ”
Xiaobu said coldly: "The sun should be scorching today, and it will kill you bastard." "I know, this guy is still angry with me pretending to be a wild man attacking him.
Luna slapped Xiaobu's cousin, "you." Then he laughed, "There is no hungry cook in the world." ”
I had no intention of arguing with Xiaobu, crying with a sad face, "If I don't eat some food, I may be the first." ”
Luna reached out and pulled me up, helping me limp a few steps to clear my veins.
"I'll invite you to dinner, starve to death, and you won't have a chef in the world to make beautiful barbecue."
Xiaobu looked at me disdainfully, "You are just a little white face who only knows how to eat soft rice." ”
Luna angrily said to Xiaobu: "You are endless, don't follow me if you do this again." Xiaobu turned his head angrily, did not leave, but did not speak again.
Luna took me to a nearby burger joint, and helped me get a bunch of burgers, which I devoured, "Okay, you have to pay for this meal, and I don't have a penny." If you run away again, I'll have to stay in the restaurant and wash the dishes for a month. ”
"Congratulations, you've got another job." Xiaobu still didn't forget me when he found the opportunity.
I don't want to talk to Xiao Bu and eat with my head down.
"What are you doing, running all over the streets?" Luna asked.
I looked at Luna and sighed, "I'll look for Piyu again." When Xiaobu heard this, he glared at me fiercely, and did not speak.
Luna frowned, then said softly, "What's wrong with her?" Do you want to run all over a city to find it? ”
"She's missing, she's been missing since she came out of the Doge's Palace the day before yesterday. Kill people. ”
Before Luna could speak, Boo jumped up, "What's wrong with Piyu?" How did you bastard lose Piyu? "From the bar that day, I knew that Xiaobu had a crush on Piyou, and when I knew that Piyou was missing, he was even more anxious than me.
Luna was still unhurried, she looked at me and seemed to be saying to herself, "If I lose it too, will people all over the city look for me?" ”
I opened my mouth and stammered, "Grandma, when is it now, don't think nonsense." Analyze it for me. ”
Luna smiled wryly and shook her head, full of helplessness.
I told Luna what had happened, and Luna listened quietly, and finally said, "Hamid is looking for Piyu, which means that Piyu is not with them; Zhizi is a good friend of Pi You, and Pi You didn't vote for him, which shows that Pi You doesn't want to go to relatives and friends at all, she has no relatives in Australia, and she can't go back to her home, she has indeed reached the point of exhaustion. ”
Xiaobu's fist slammed on the table, "She's so stupid, why doesn't she go to me, she can find Zhizi if she doesn't look for me." ”
Luna glanced at Xiaobu, "Piyu can usually go to you and find Zhizi, but she is very strong, and she will never look for you when she is down, do you want to see her jokes?" ”
I was anxious, "And where is she most likely to go?" ”
Luna groaned, "If I were her, I would go to my favorite place and die." ”
My mouth opened wide in fright, and half of the burger in my mouth almost fell off.
Luna looked at me: "Think about it, where does Piyu like to go the most, where to look for it, if you go late, you may see a corpse." ”
Boo jumped up, "I see, she must have gone to Tom's bar." I'll go find her. After saying that, he ran out without looking back. Boo and Pieu often meet at Tom's Bar, and often bet that he would naturally think that Piyou was going there in the first place.
I also thought of a place, but it wasn't Tom's Bar, and according to Luna, Pieu was supposed to be there.
I didn't care about eating any more of the leftover burger, stood up and said apologetically, "Thank you, Luna, I'm going to find her too." Then he ran out of the hotel.
Through the glass of the hotel, I saw that Luna was not moving, sitting quietly watching me.
My heart moved, and I ran back and grabbed Luna, "If you lose it, I'll look for you all over the world." ”
With that, he rushed out of the hotel again, leaving Luna, stunned by my sudden words.
I ran to the shores of Lake Glo, where on more than one occasion Piu had rowed a flat boat to the middle of the lake in the moonlight.
At that time, she was like a fairy in Lingbo, floating freely on the surface of the lake. She told me that this was her dream.
On the shores of Glo Lake, the grass is still delicious, the reeds are still swaying, and the bright moon still reflects the calm lake.
I saw a huge bamboo boat lying casually on the edge of the lake, but there was no familiar figure on the lakeside, only a bleak place. An ominous premonition came over her, she must have been sitting here for a long time, and she had rowed a bamboo boat to the moonlight in the middle of the lake. As Luna said, after Piyu once again rode the waves, saw that he was cornered, and finally committed suicide by throwing himself into the lake?
I walked back and forth to the lake many times, and finally jumped into the lake, dived to the bottom of the lake over and over again, groped in the icy water, tried to fish for a corpse, and finally found nothing until I was exhausted.
I climbed ashore and lay on my back on the grass, tears streaming down my face.
