◎Throwing eggs on the mountain◎
Chapter 4
When Shitou's father saw his son like this, he was so angry that he looked around. Finally, he saw a rope on the eaves of a house nearby and rushed straight towards it.
"No, Dad, I was wrong. I didn't know they were snake eggs! I'll know next time!!"
Seeing his father's actions, the clever little boy Shi Tou guessed it immediately and hugged his father's legs.
Shitou held the boy tightly. As he was only ten years old and loved to eat, he now weighed like a fat boy. He just looked skinny, but he was very strong. With this, he tripped his father and he almost fell.
"Next time? You still want a next time? If you weren't lucky this time, you would have been feeding snakes in the mountains before you even got it back. You've become the food supply for that nest of snake cubs."
As Stone Dad spoke, he dragged his held leg and moved towards the rope with difficulty.
It’s not that Stone Dad is weak and can’t even lift a child of about ten years old. It’s just that the kid is holding his legs, which seriously hinders his smooth walking.
The moment he got the rope, he put it directly around Shi Tou's wrist.
Because Shitou had been scolded by his father, he also realized how dangerous his previous actions were. Now he was a little wilted and did not resist, and just let his father tie him up.
Then the two of them came straight towards Ying Huai.
"Little Boss, don't hang this child on his godmother. Just tie him next to her."
The old lady watched the whole process from the side. At this time, she didn't think of pleading for Shi Tou, but instead made a cheerful suggestion.
"Don't scratch your godmother's bark."
The old lady's eyes and tone were gentle when she said this, but to Shi Tou's ears, it was not gentle at all.
"Grandpa, you also help my dad..."
Shitou turned his head dejectedly and looked at Zuzu with a face full of resentment.
"Hey, your grandpa is not the kind of old man who spoils children. Little Stone, reflect on your mistakes to your godmother. Don't pick on her."
The little old lady saw Shitou's look and smiled happily at him.
After listening to Grandpa's words, Shitou knew that it was impossible to expect Grandpa to help him at this time. He could only be tied up facing the locust tree by his father. Facing the rough bark of the locust tree, Shitou didn't even dare to move, for fear that he would be slapped in the face if he didn't reflect on it for a while.
"It's started again..." Ying Huai was speechless as he looked at another baby tied to him.
In recent years, whenever the children in the village made mistakes, the adults in the village would not ask them to reflect on their mistakes facing the wall, but would directly take them to Ying Huai to reflect on their mistakes facing the tree.
Shi Tou was tied up like this, and there was an old man watching nearby. After making sure there would be no problems, Shi Tou's father prepared to leave.
"Grandma, you stay here and look after these babies. I'll go back and take care of the eggs and send them back up the mountain."
After Stone Dad finished speaking, he turned and left after seeing Zuzu waving his hand, indicating that he should go about his own business.
It was because he was so angry that he acted too impulsively and didn't think of sending the egg back to the mountain first before dealing with this little bastard.
I don’t know if anything is happening to the egg at home now.
Thinking of this, Stone Dad quickened his pace.
But when he got home, he found that the eggs that the little kid had left in the house had disappeared.
This gave him a fright.
No way?
Although he felt a little wailing in his heart, he did not stop for a moment and started searching around his home.
He was afraid that the cats and dogs at home might have taken the eggs away because they were hungry, so he thought of looking for them. If they hadn't hurt anyone, he would just send them away.
If he gets hurt, his house will probably become a mountain top for some time to come.
Just make room for the mountain.
Guo Shanfeng's sense of smell is more than ten times stronger than that of a dog. If its egg is broken, even if he tries his best to cover it up, this thing will be able to smell it and find their home.
Thinking of the habit of crossing the mountain, Stone Dad felt a little itchy.
But before he could think of beating the kid up again, he saw a cat in the distance holding something in its mouth, walking slowly towards the mountain.
Looking closely, what it was holding in its mouth was the cloth bag that the little kid used to hold his eggs.
He was just about to go over and ask the cat to open the cloth bag so that he could check the eggs inside, but before he could move, he saw the cat in front of him quickly slap the grass with its paw.
The grass rolled over a few times after it was slapped by the cat, and he then saw a long black strip in it. The cat's slap had knocked it backwards.
Just now he was wondering why his cat, which has a quick temper, could walk so slowly while carrying such a heavy object. It seemed that there was something nearby and it was on guard against him.
Seeing this, Stone Dad breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the current state of the snake and the cat, the snake eggs in the cloth bag were obviously fine, otherwise the snake would definitely not be in this state.
Thinking of this, he began to call the cat to walk up the mountain.
Before, the cat came home because it must have seen a snake entering the house and invading its territory, but it couldn't kill it, so it took the snake out in such a roundabout way.
Now that it saw its owner coming, the cat relaxed instantly, put the cloth bag next to Stone Dad, and wanted to turn around.
“Hey hey hey!!!”
Before Stone Dad could stop it, the tabby cat pounced on the snake in the grass in the distance and slapped the snake on the head with several slaps.
It was very fast, and although it couldn't bite the snake to death directly, just when the cat was holding the cloth bag and had no time to pay attention to the mountain, this guy kept provoking it and wanted to sneak attack it, so it didn't get hurt unjustly by the loud slap.
Although this snake has a very sensitive sense of smell, its speed is still a little slower than that of a cat.
After being beaten, it finally realized the need to bite, but because its head was buzzing from being hit, it couldn't even find the right direction to bite, and was hit by the cat's fist again.
Stone Dad relaxed when he saw that the cat wanted to deal with Guo Shanfeng, who had just provoked him, and did not intend to throw the snake eggs to him and run away.
When he came to his senses, he wanted to cover his face again. He didn't know when he would be able to change his nature of being dependent on cats since he was a child.
The cat finished the fight and felt relieved. After making sure that the snake would not cause trouble for it and its owner for the time being, it turned around and walked behind its owner, signaling Stone Dad to go first while it stayed behind to guard against the snake.
Having been together for many years, Stone Dad knew what it meant at a glance. He didn't object and turned around and walked forward.
At this time, the cat's means were obviously much more useful than his own strength.
Stone Dad has complete faith in the cat's strength. This is the trust of a child who has been eating cat snacks since childhood.
When he was a child, he was greedy and the mother cat in front of him would catch fish for him to eat. However, the lifespan of a cat is only about ten to twenty years. Before leaving, the mother cat gave birth to her last litter and placed a fish in front of him, indicating that this cat would not be sent to a new home and would be kept at home. The next year, it would go to the Cat Planet.
The cats specially left by the cat mother are still very reliable. This kitten has shown its violent side since it was a child. It wants to fight everything it sees. Later, it became the bully of the village. Even dogs have to stay away from it when they see it, otherwise it will be beaten with cat fists.
Now it’s even more incredible, he can even fight back and forth with Guo Shanfeng.
If this mountain pass wasn't so big, it might have killed the person directly instead of being so patient and carrying the cloth bag up the mountain to throw eggs.
With the protection of the cat and his own anxiety to throw the eggs away, he climbed the mountain very smoothly and quickly. When he reached a place where ordinary villagers would not go, he carefully took out the eggs from the cloth bag, put them aside, and then threw away the eggs along with the cloth bag.
This cloth bag has a smell. If I take it back, there's no guarantee that the snake will come to seek revenge in the middle of the night because of the beating the cat gave it. It's better to throw it away.
After putting the snake down, the two of them didn't care that the mountain didn't come looking for them, and they just turned around and left.
With the snake's sense of smell, it can't even find this little path, so it's probably useless.
When they came back from the mountain, Stone Dad made a special detour to the village entrance to see his tied-up monkey.
The cat also thought of the two-legged animal cub that brought danger home, and wanted to go and see it. After knowing where it was, it spread its claws and ran towards the village entrance.
When Stone's father arrived, he saw a cat squatting on his son's head, with the cat's tail occasionally brushing across Stone's back and neck. Seeing his son feeling itchy because of the disturbance, but unable to move his hands because they were tied by Stone, so he could only twist his body around, the anger that Stone's father had felt when he went up the mountain before dissipated a lot.
Shitou saw his father from a distance, and when he got closer, he opened his mouth and started shouting.
"Dad, please save your son and let Ali go!"
As soon as Shitou finished shouting, he felt that the cat squatting on his head seemed to be annoyed by his noise and hit him on the forehead.
Although it didn't stretch out its claws, the cat's strength alone was enough to make a stone hurt.
"Little Li'er, you better be careful. Once he's released, he'll start to torment you again."
Ying Huai just lowered his head and looked at the two noisy cats, chuckling and reminding them.
"Meow~"
The cat looked up, called out to Ying Huai, and then jumped off the stone head.
Then, after a few rises and falls, it headed towards the largest branch on the locust tree.
There were still a few sparrows resting on it at this time. When they saw it go up, they flew away in a hurry.
Although this guy won't eat it in front of you because of Ying Huai, once it catches you, it will chew it very crunchy.
Seeing that there were no sparrows on the locust tree, the cat was happy. As if it had won a battle, it sat on the tree trunk with an arrogant look on its face and just looked down at the stone.
"This little human was already weak, and now he's causing trouble."
The cat muttered softly, and to others it sounded like a normal purring, but Ying Huai heard it clearly.
This cat has good aptitude. In the past, it often stayed with Ying Huai out of instinct. Although it is not practicing now, it is already much smarter than other kittens and puppies.
It's a pity that the spiritual energy in this world is thin. Perhaps in this lifetime, the little fox will never be able to become a little demon with cultivation.
Ying Huai thought about it with some regret, turned around, took out some of the wish power he had collected, transformed it into spiritual energy, and put it on Xiao Li'er.
"Hmm? The spiritual energy today is a little strange..."
Just after putting it on the table, Ying Huai saw the kitten tilting its head back comfortably, squinting its eyes, and starting to absorb the food instinctively. He took a closer look and felt something was amiss.
In the past, the cat could only absorb a small portion of the spiritual energy he gave it, and the rest was basically absorbed by his current body, the locust tree.
But this time it was different. This time the spiritual cat absorbed half of it.
"Little Li'er, you look a little strange..."
Could it be that the kitten's talent is so high that in such a rarefied world, with that little bit of spiritual energy, he can become a demon and practice cultivation?
