307 Dust (1)
The picture continues, and in the golden light of dusk, it seems slightly illusory and unreal.
The next day, the little lizard was lying in the corner, its two round eyes looking into the distance, as if waiting for something.
"Left pat, right pat. The neck is twisted, the ass is twisted. ”
Cheerful voices came from the bustling streets.
The little girl was dirty, but she couldn't hide the unique light in her eyes.
Children are always forgetful, and once again the little girl fearlessly ran to the wall, holding a blackened piece of steamed bread in her hand, and looked at something carefully.
The ants on the ground, one by one, crawled out of the holes the size of their fingernails, picked up the steamed bun dregs dropped by the little girl, touched each other with their tentacles, and quickly ran away.
The little lizard was overjoyed, and a happy look ran out of its eyes.
However, the little girl did not see it.
It crawled and crawled, and finally climbed from the wall to the dusty ground.
It was not safe on the ground at all, and many small ants came straight to it, even opening their small mouths and tearing at the ugly skin of the little lizard.
However, the little lizard was not afraid, and waved its four claws hard to drive the little ants away.
Then, pretending to be inadvertent, he climbed onto the corner of the little girl's skirt and raised his head slightly in anticipation.
The little girl let out a surprised "pout", her eyes fixed on the little lizard, and her two thin palms flapped happily in one place.
A light voice, full of innocence and friendliness.
"It's you, I saw you yesterday. Do you want to play with me? Can you hear me?"
The little lizard learned its lesson, and instead of trying to open its mouth to speak, it raised its two front paws slightly and made a sincere gesture of worship.
The little girl has two buns on her head, and her little head shakes and looks quite agile.
The sound is crisp, like the cleanest and most beautiful lark song in the night.
"I see, you must want to play with me, after all, I'm so well-behaved and cute. ”
The little lizard didn't dare to move casually, and crawled along the corner of the little girl's skirt to the palm of her hand, and nodded her head up and down.
Because of the very short neck, the little lizard nodded more widely, and nodded very hard up and down, as if in agreement.
The little girl held the little lizard and stood up with some excitement.
His lips grew bigger and bigger, and his bright and clear eyes looked closely at the little lizard wagging its tail in front of him, and told very happily.
"In that case, you can follow me in the future. I don't have anything to eat at home, but I can go out into the grass and help you catch gnats. You know, the cries are very noisy, and my mother is always idle, and I have to catch them for her every day. However, there are too many gnats to catch them. But I still like to catch gnats, because they are especially delicious when boiled. ”
The little lizard seemed to understand, but it didn't seem to understand, with an ignorant look in its eyes, and still nodded its head happily.
The little girl held the little lizard and ran in the direction of home.
It was a somewhat messy thatched house, surrounded by a crumbling fence, and the soil on the ground was somewhat loose.
The fence slopes inward, and it is clear that it does not play any role in resisting it.
The walls of the house were made of straw mixed with mud, and several cracks had not been repaired for a long time.
In front of me was the familiar home, and the little girl's figure was rushing out like an arrow, and the two slightly yellowed buns were constantly beating up and down because of the running.
Under the bright sunshine, with childishness and beauty.
"Mother, I'm back! I have a new good friend today, would you like to take a look?"
The woman in a gray cloth dress coughed incessantly and held a thick insoles.
The woman's hair was a little messy, her whole body was thinner than that of a thin little girl, and her whole face was unhealthily sallow.
"Have you brought a friend home? Let my mother take a look. ”
The little girl was very happy to take her palm out of her back and put it in front of the woman.
"Little lizard, say hello to your mother. ”
The woman's face changed drastically, and her originally sallow complexion was now even more bloodless, and her body trembled violently with anger.
One hand covered his mouth, coughing fiercely, like a messy grass in the wind.
My own child is so cute, how can I be friends with a lizard.
Absolutely not, your own children should be accompanied by children of the same age.
The weak words have a bit of cruelty and ruthlessness.
"Throw it out, how can you be friends with a cold-blooded animal? Throw it out of me, you're trying to me off!"
"Mother, it's my friend. ”
The little lizard thought that humans were very good at talking, but now looked at the angry woman, and his heart shrank a little timidly.
The whole body was coiled together, trying to reduce the area of his own, and his eyes were slightly closed, leaving only a puzzled gaze, looking at the little girl with a slight expectation.
The woman looked at the little girl's tearful eyes, and there was a trace of unbearability in her heart.
Putting down the needle and thread in his hand, he wanted to pull the little girl's hand, and his tone was much softer.
"Your friend should be human, not an animal without any emotion or body temperature. ”
The little girl pouted stubbornly, tears rolling in her eyes, but she didn't fall.
The voice was a little choked, and the withered yellow face had a hint of grievance.
"Don't I want to have human friends? However, they all disliked me for being stupid and stupid, and my family was poor, and they never said a word to me. ”
The woman sighed deeply, for the days had become more and more difficult since the men who worked as coolies in the house had gone.
Sell some insoles every day, but I can barely eat steamed buns.
"That's it, I don't care about you, this little lizard can't stay in this room. ”
The little girl wiped the tears hanging from her eyelashes, twitched her nose, protected the little lizard in her hand, and went out of the somewhat gray room.
"I see, Mother. Little lizard, I'll find you a quiet place, let's go first. ”
The immature but firm voice made the little lizard barely dare to open its eyes, slowly adapting to the bright light outside the window.
The little girl carried the little lizard to the abandoned pigsty, found a lot of straw, placed the little lizard, and chatted for a while before running away happily.
"Can you stay with me a little longer?"
The little lizard lay on the straw, looking farther and farther away, but it couldn't utter a syllable similar to that of a human.
The back of the little girl is very cheerful, with the vitality and carefree unique to youth.
Xu Yes, if the thoughts in his heart are very sincere, he will definitely be perceived by the other party.
So, the little girl ran around and came back.
The little girl pinched a grasshopper in one hand, leaned into the little lizard's mouth, and asked in a gentle tone.
"Little lizard, I forgot to ask you, do you eat gnats. Anyway, my mother and I like to eat it very much, fragrant and tender meat, and eat a mouthful of fragrant meat. ”
The little lizard blinked its big eyes and opened its mouth slightly in embarrassment, but it didn't dare to show its long tongue, for fear that the little girl would be scared away by herself again.
The little girl was very intelligent, and by observing the movements of the little lizard, she could understand its thoughts, and threw the grasshopper into the lizard's mouth, with a concerned and happy smile on her face.
