"Oh oh oh ~" Jiu Tiao felt the change in the surrounding environment, and his little head stood up high. He wanted to touch the big tree and pull the branches again. It's so fun outside, he loves it!
"No!" Liu Tiao noticed and immediately put Jiu Tiao's hands back into the basket. Mother said that Jiu Tiao was strictly forbidden to touch these trees, grass, vines, etc. He had to keep a close eye on her for her!
His nine hands were stuffed back into the basket, and with several older brothers staring at him, he had no choice but to put his hands in his pockets. Then his black eyes darted around to appease his raging curiosity.
But I can see it but can't touch it, my hands are itchy and my heart is itchy... Jiujo scratched his hands in frustration, feeling a little uncomfortable.
After walking a little further, the kids suddenly heard the excited cries of Four and Five, as if they were calling them, and they hurriedly took a few quick steps.
"Woof woof woof~Woof woof woof~" Five birds ran down the mountain sideways.
Seeing Wu Tiao's pride, several others couldn't help but brighten up. They asked excitedly, "Wu Tiao, did you catch a rabbit?"
"Woof woof woof~" Five responses came, shaking their butts happily.
Hearing Wu Tiao's response, the group of Tiao Tiao became even more excited. Knowing Wu Tiao, they knew that Wu Tiao's cocky attitude meant he must have done something good. Even if there wasn't a fat rabbit, there should be a rabbit leg waiting for them...
"Woof woof woof ~ Awooo ~" After asking for a pat, Wu Tiao took a group of little masters to find its fourth sister.
The other two followed Five to the spot and were pleasantly surprised to find that it was indeed a good thing. A great fortune awaited them! Four and Five had caught a big fat rabbit.
It's a big fat rabbit, I guess. Weighing it, it seems to weigh over four pounds. It must have eaten a lot of food from the mountains. It would make a delicious stew...
"Four, good job!" Seven patted Four and fed him some dried squid he had brought with him. This was what he had promised Four and Five.
"Woof woof!" Five of them immediately crowded over, and only after getting the same amount of dried squid did they lie down in satisfaction. A half-dead gray rabbit, flapping its paws, seemed to be saying that the big rabbit also had its share of credit.
"Yeah, yeah, five is great too!" Three petted the big dog and coaxed him with two dried squids. Because he trusted Four and Five, he put the reward in his pocket in advance.
The other ones also praised them, touched them, and gave some food to the fourth or fifth one if they had anything on them.
Liu Tiao also took out two, and Yi Gou took one. He was so happy! Now he could have a good meal! Liu Tiao chewed the dried squid and crunched it happily.
"Big fat rabbit!" Little Tiger looked at the big rabbit with his eyes shining with gold.
Sanni was drooling without hesitation. This rabbit looked quite meaty, so she should definitely get a few more pieces...
"Bunny, bunny, ji~" The little deer saw the big rabbit struggling slightly under its four or five paws, and immediately lost his composure. He stood up by the basket, thinking of going down to the ground to take a look and touch it.
Jiu Tiao was originally thinking about going to the fields, and when he saw his little sister Deer was also going to the fields, he immediately shouted happily. "Duoduo, Duoduo, Duoduo~"
"Brother~ look~ look~" The little deer waved his hands everywhere, calling not only brother but also sister.
Jiu Tiao followed suit and started shouting randomly. He was going to come out anyway!
"Wow wow wow wow ~" Seeing that their older brothers and sisters didn't come to hug them for a long time, the two little babies curled up in the backpack and began to arch their heads hard, and their little hands and feet fluttered around, making it hard to ignore them.
The older kids had no choice but to carry the two little ones out for a look. After letting them take a look and touch, they were ready to stuff their younger siblings back into the basket.
Jiu Tiao and Xiao Lu naturally refused, and as if in tacit understanding, they each pulled up one rabbit's ear, and with a sudden pull, the wilted rabbits were perked up.
"Ah~" The gray rabbit made a miserable sound, feeling like he was dying again.
So, what was I doing out here today? I finally managed to escape into a cave, thinking I was safe, but two dogs were waiting outside. As soon as I emerged, they pinned me down and gave me a good beating...
"Don't move!" Liu Tiao stopped his troublesome younger brothers and sisters.
"Wait a minute." Yitiao also stopped the action. He stopped Ertiao and Xiaohuzi from moving Jiutiao and Xiaolu.
A question suddenly occurred to him. A very serious one! While there was no such thing as confiscating a rabbit, it was still necessary to hide it, to avoid any unnecessary trouble caused by others' nonsense...
One of them was clear-headed and found two vines to tie up the rabbit. Then he took out the cloth from the nine baskets and stuffed the rabbit in.
"Oh?" Nine-legged Tiao was staring intently. What was Brother Tiao doing? Why was he putting the rabbit in his little basket? If that was the case, he would think the rabbit was his...
"Hush. Let's go down the mountain quietly. Don't let anyone know that we caught a rabbit on the mountain, otherwise there will be a quarrel. If those petty-minded people find out, the rabbit might be confiscated, and we won't be able to eat even a fingernail of meat..." Yi Tiao looked around, warned carefully, and scared the group of sisters, younger sisters, and younger brothers.
Even though he had exaggerated the confiscation, he had to make it sound serious to prevent his younger brothers from letting the cat out of the bag. Someone else had found something in the mountains before, and many people were jealous. He didn't want his mother to be jealous.
"Okay!" Rokujo nodded vigorously, the first to agree. He had to agree with his brother's words. Besides, secretly eating meat was his favorite thing!
"Yeah!" Everyone else nodded. The rabbit their dog caught must be theirs! They couldn't give others a chance to speak.
Even Sanni covered her mouth tightly in this tense atmosphere. She had to keep the food for herself. She wouldn't be so foolish as to tell others about it and have it confiscated, leaving her with nothing. Besides, she didn't know anyone on this island...
After reaching a consensus, Ba Tiao bent down and started stealthily pulling the grass. The big fat rabbit had to be hidden well, not a single bit could show through. After Ba Tiao finished pulling the grass himself, he directed his brothers to do the same. He was the most experienced when it came to hiding things!
The other ones also admired the Eighth for this. They all pulled a few pieces of grass and blocked wherever the Eighth asked them to...
The last rabbit was completely covered by the grass, not a single hair showing. Yatiao admired his masterpiece with satisfaction.
Jiu Tiao was also admiring his small basket filled with rabbits with great satisfaction. He turned over with his short legs and hugged the basket tightly.
