Wen Sitian was listening with a frown on her face, looking helplessly at her silly sister-in-law.
It turned out that since Xu Jianguo left home, Wen Sitian felt that there were only her and Funiu at home, and the house was always empty and insecure. Later, she found a worn-out mattress and spread it in the house, and began to let Xiaohei live in the house.
Ever since the mighty and domineering Xiao Hei took on the responsibility of protecting the entire house, Wen Sitian and Funiu no longer felt afraid, except that they missed Xu Jianguo all the time.
It was during this period that Funniu developed the habit of interacting with Xiao Hei. Since they had no shortage of money or tickets, Wen Sitian would often buy meat for the little girl. Once, a piece of pork in Funniu's hand accidentally fell to the ground because she didn't hold it firmly. She was so anxious that she quickly climbed down from the chair to the ground to pick it up, but she didn't expect that Xiao Hei, who was guarding the dinner table, got there first.
Xiao Hei held the pork in his mouth but didn't eat it. He just kept wandering in front of Funniu, making the little girl so angry that she bared her teeth and made a fuss.
However, due to the huge size difference between the man and the dog, Funiu's pork was still eaten by Xiaohei.
From then on, every time Xiao Hei was eating dog food or chewing sticks, Fu Niu would go and make trouble. Wen Sitian often saw the little girl holding a cowhide chewing stick that was more than 20 centimeters long in her hand, giggling and running around in the yard, and behind her, she could hear Xiao Hei's angry whimpering.
Whenever Wen Sitian sees this scene, a knowing smile appears on her face.
Watching Funiu and Xiaohei playing around, Wen Sitian stood up, grabbed two handfuls of dog food and a few pieces of dried meat snacks from a bundle on the upper bunk, put them in Xiaohei's usual food bowl, and placed it in front of it.
Xiao Hei rubbed his big head on Wen Sitian's legs, then started eating happily.
Funiu seemed to know that Xiaohei was very hungry, so she didn't disturb it this time. She just stretched out her little hand and stroked Xiaohei's big head.
Not long after Xiao Hei finished his meal, the train slowly slowed down and finally stopped steadily on the platform. There was a knock on the door. Xiao Hei did not shout, but stood up from the ground, his two big black eyes fixed on the door.
Wen Sitian opened the door of the box and found that it was the soldier who had delivered the meal before.
"Comrade Wen Sitian, our company commander asked me to come over and take Xiao Hei out of the car for a walk." said the young soldier.
"Okay, wait a moment."
Wen Sitian turned around, took the leash, touched Xiao Hei's head, then pointed at the little soldier and said, "Xiao Hei, go for a walk with him. Come back after you pee, and don't bark!"
Nourished by the water from the space well, Xiao Hei became very human. He snorted loudly to indicate that he understood, and then walked to the side of the little soldier.
Wen Sitian handed one end of the leash to the young soldier and said with a smile, "Thank you, comrade, for your hard work!"
"It's okay, it's not hard. This is the first time I've seen such a human-like dog. Just leave it to me and don't worry."
The young soldier took Xiao Hei off the train and strolled on the platform. Because of Funiu's incident, the train had been running at high speed, resulting in the train arriving at the station more than 20 minutes earlier than scheduled.
About ten minutes later, the little soldier brought Xiao Hei back to the box and told Wen Sitian that Xiao Hei was very obedient and had urinated and defecated, so she could stay in the box without worry.
After the little soldier left, Wen Sitian poured the cooled water in the cup into the food bowl, and Xiao Hei drank it with big gulps.
After packing everything up, Wen Sitian closed the door of the compartment, sat on the bunk, hugged Funiu and told her a story.
Because Funiu slept too much today, Wen Sitian had to tell five stories to coax her to sleep.
Looking at the cute little girl sleeping beside her, Wen Sitian still had many questions in her heart, but now she felt that they were not so important. No matter what, the child Funiu happened to be by her side now, and that was enough. After a while, Wen Sitian closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
As the departure time arrived, the train started slowly. Outside a forest about ten kilometers away, two men in black were sitting in a car smoking. When they saw the train passing over a bridge not far away, they opened the door and got out of the car, staring at the forest in front of them, as if waiting for something.
These two people were none other than the accomplices of the two men in black captured by Xu Jianguo, Little Chicken and Old Dog. They were waiting here to pick up Monkey and Old Pig, and bring Funiu back to report.
But the two men would never have imagined that the person they were waiting for was being tortured and interrogated inhumanely by Fu Bo and would never appear at the meeting place.
Twenty minutes later, the old dog raised his wrist and checked the time in the moonlight. He then turned to the man in black and said, "Little Chicken, something's wrong. It's been twenty minutes. Based on the speed of Monkey and Old Pig, even if they brought someone with them, it wouldn't be that slow, right?"
The chicken nodded and said, "It's definitely not right. The monkey's speed is second only to the rat's. It doesn't make sense for him to be so slow!"
The two people in the dark looked at each other and saw a solemn look in each other's eyes. It was obvious that they had realized that something had happened to Monkey and Pig.
The two waited for another five minutes, but still no one came. The chicken turned around and jumped into the jeep, followed closely by the old dog. The roar of the engine was heard in the empty mountain forest. After the headlights came on, the jeep drove quickly into a forest path and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
At the Black Mountain Base, Xu Jianguo was sitting at the desk in the room. Du Yu was summoned out from the space by him. At this time, she was sitting on the bed with a stack of English materials in her hands, reading the content she had translated to Xu Jianguo.
Apart from Du Yu's quiet recitation, the only sound in the room was the rustling sound of the pen writing on paper.
The master and the servant worked together very well and completed the translation of one-tenth of the second phase of materials in just over two hours.
Xu Jianguo took the translated materials from Du Yu's hand, then took her back to the space. He also put away the three notebooks filled with notes, then stood up and stretched.
