Chapter 33: Dazed Night Walk in Distress
Xinghua rubbed her beautiful big eyes, and when she looked closely, she saw that the young man was tall, with broad arms, thick hands and feet, a dark face, and unkempt hair, like a wild man. But his big eyes are heroic, flashing with the unique spirit and temperament of the grassland people.
Xinghua lowered her head when she saw it, and thought to herself: It was this man who saved herself? Why did he look the same as Erhu? It's just that he was a little darker and thinner than Erhu.
Xinghuaniang said: "This is my son Dahu." Don't look at him dressed like this, he looks quite fierce, but in fact, his heart is hot. Hehe, don't let him scare you!"
The big tiger smiled at Xinghua, showed a mouthful of regular white teeth, and handed him a packet of herbs to his mother.
The big tiger lady said again: "Don't look at him a little sloppy, you can be careful." ”
Dahu didn't care about the old lady's comments about him, but he stopped saying nothing for fear of scaring Xinghua. He picked up the rabbit from the ground, hung it from a small tree in the yard, and picked up the skin silently.
In fact, he is not very old, similar to Xinghua, but Xinghua feels that his rugged back and Mali's movements are a little similar to his father-in-law and Erhu, so he didn't feel that he took a few more looks.
The big tiger seemed to feel the burning in his back, and turned back to Xinghua and smiled again, and Xinghuaer felt that the wild man smiled heartily and happily.
The sharp knife in the big tiger's hand did not slow down the action of peeling the skin, and later he even sang a mountain song with a chirp......
The big tiger lady glanced at Xinghua, for fear that she would laugh at her son, so she said to her son angrily: "This child is the same as his father." When I'm idle, I don't slip away.,I just like to hum and chirp and sing.。 Hey, big tiger. Xinghua said that her family is also a hunter. ”
"Oh, yes. Dahu glanced back at Xinghua again, smiled, and continued to work.
Xinghua suddenly thought of the missing Erhu and her mother-in-law, and the kind-hearted Wang Ma who rescued her from Liu's Mansion, and the shadows of these people appeared in front of her again, lingering. She was in no mood to watch the big tiger pick rabbit skin anymore.
The big tiger lady touched the forehead of the apricot blossom. Feeling hot and hot, I thought that this child must have been scared by spending the night on the grassland last night, so I hurriedly walked to the outhouse to see if the herbs had been boiled.
Subsequently. Xinghua drank the medicine under the service of the big tiger lady, and lay on the kang for a long time, as if she was asleep. It was like being awake again. The thinking in her brain didn't seem to be her own. has already wandered away from her body and ran back to Xiaogushan. I saw my mother-in-law walking towards her, smiling so charmingly, so happy, like a warm spring breeze, she stretched out her hands to hug her mother-in-law, and suddenly her mother-in-law flashed and drifted away, it turned out to be an eagle that took away her mother-in-law......
I saw Erhu and my father-in-law also walking towards him. Suddenly. There was a wild laugh in the sky, and the eagle flew over the head of the apricot blossom again. hovered in the air for a while, fell in front of Xinghua, and changed again, actually turned into a tall and fat person, Xinghua looked up and saw that this person was Liu Zihao, the eldest master of Liu Mansion!
Liu Zihao held a machete in his hand, and slashed at his father and Erhu with his teeth and claws, and Xinghua screamed and woke up from his sleep in shock.
Xinghua sat up with a buttocks, it turned out to be Nan Ke's dream.
Xinghua got up and walked down the ground, found that the big tiger mother and the big tiger were not in the house, and then went to the yard to take a look, and two rabbit skins were hung on the tree. Xinghua thought what this person was doing? She felt a burst of emptiness, loneliness, and inexplicable melancholy, and her mood was entangled to the extreme, and she actually produced an uncontrollable emotion, which made her impulsive, and walked out of the city blindly and involuntarily, as if some force or magic was calling her, and walked all the way to the outside of the tunzi, to the boundless prairie.
The sun has quietly set, but the apricot blossoms are still walking forward without realizing it. She ran for a while, walked for a while, and there was always a voice in her ear that kept asking: "Mother-in-law and Erhu are gone, what are you still doing in the world?"
Another voice is asking, "What does it mean for you to be left alone?"
There is also a voice asking, "Could it be that the mother-in-law and the second tiger are really dead?"
Another voice replied: "No, no, I'm going to look for it, my mother-in-law and Erhu Jiren have their own natural appearance, and they won't be easily killed." Besides, can they be willing to leave me alone?"
These sudden changes befell a girl who was only in her early twenties and was not deeply involved in the world, like a mountain that overwhelmed her, and her heart was completely confused and desperate. When a person puts life and death out of the way, no matter when and where she is, she doesn't know what fear is.
At this time, the sunset in the depths of the grassland had reached the horizon, and it was completely dark. After a while, the moon rose again, but it was not very bright, sometimes it disappeared behind the dark clouds, and sometimes it came out again, and the prairie was white and bright.
The cold stars in the sky were sparse, and the night wind of late autumn and early winter blew the thatch very strongly, making a miserable wail. Xinghua didn't know how far she had walked, but after the last she slowed down, she stopped on the grassland in the night in a daze.
At this time, a few more fires suddenly flashed in the northwest direction, floating towards this side like ghost fires. Then, I heard the sound of horses' hooves crumbling. A few night birds fluttered and flew up, and the apricot blossoms were startled, and looked to the northwest in a daze, and said in their hearts: Not good, someone is coming!
Since she had already walked far from Natunzi, it was impossible to go back immediately, and she immediately had a premonition that something was going to happen. A dangerous signal was warning the sensitive nerve in her head. She woke up suddenly, thinking about her situation, thinking that her life, even the wolves did not eat herself, which means that she still needs to live, so she used a frightened gaze to search for any place where she could hide and hide.
However, the place where she stood was an open, flat grassland, and there was no sandbag or thatch to hide in. Under the lonely moon, Xinghua suddenly saw a thin lonely tree not far away, like a black umbrella growing on the grassland, and Xinghua hurriedly ran towards it.
Apricot blossom quickly climbed the tree, leaning against the trunk of the thickest tree. Looking northwest, the team of horses with torches in hand came to me like a whirlwind in an instant.
She was startled, and wondered: Who are they? Could it be the legendary bandits? She held the trunk of the tree tightly with both hands, and through the branches and leaves, with the help of the moonlight and torches, she could clearly see that there were a dozen horses in front of her, and a three-horse cart behind her, which stopped not far from the apricot blossoms.
Xinghua looked at the tightness in her heart, what are they going to do? Did they find themselves?(To be continued......)
