two ears pricked up

The little black rabbit survived the accident, so Chu Shaojie took it back to the house and fed it some fresh fruits and vegetables.

It is still raining, the windows are open, with bamboo curtains inside, facing the back courtyard, the rain falls on the banana leaves, and the sound of the rain hitting the banana leaves alone in the night has a special charm.

Chu Shaojie bought this elegant house and opened up several vegetable gardens in the side yard, which were planted by Sanbo.Sanbo was a native farmer in Yuqiao County, and he was the only one left in the family. When Chu Shaojie first arrived here, he recruited a courtyard guard, and he fell in love with Sanbo at first glance.

Fruits and vegetables are fresh and tender, all from the vegetable field in the courtyard.

He persuasively said, "Take a bite?"

The rabbit turned its head wearily, it was very thin, it didn't even have half of his palm, it was a small one, after the hair was dried, the black lump was only a little fluffy, and when touched, it was covered with bones.

Chu Shaojie put down the vegetables and replaced them with radishes, "Why don't you eat them, it doesn't suit your appetite?"

The little black rabbit limped and crawled around with the clean cloth rolled up.It had wounds on its legs, its eyes were blind, its paws stepped on the ground, and it was about to fall. If it hadn't been for Chu Shaojie's action, it would have fallen to the floor and couldn't move.

The little black rabbit huddled in Chu Shaojie's palm and trembled, keeping his head buried.

It reacted fiercely, and Chu Shaojie saw that it was afraid, so he put it between his legs, stroked its hair gently, and observed the little black rabbit's every move.

Until the little black rabbit stopped shaking, Chu Shaojie put the fruits and vegetables in his arms for it to hold, picked up the lantern, and went to the side room to look for Uncle San.

Sanbo had a regular schedule, went to bed early and woke up early, and went to sleep after cleaning the house after dinner every day. He stopped outside the door and knocked on the door. After waiting for a while, Sanbo came out with his clothes on, "My lord, what are your orders?"

Chu Shaojie said, "Is there a veterinarian in the city?"

Sanbo shook his head, "There are only three doctors in the city, not to mention veterinarians, my lord is..."

Chu Shaojie: "Oh, that's right. I picked up a rabbit on the way back. I saw that it was injured. I want to ask the veterinarian to show it."

The magistrate of the county behaves differently from ordinary people. He cares so much about a rabbit that has just been picked up. The third uncle is deeply surprised but dare not say more. He has raised poultry for many years, and many people in the county have bought live poultry from him to raise, and he may have a way to treat rabbits for wounds."

Chu Shaojie wrote down that when he returned to his room, he found that the little black rabbit had bitten a few radishes, with his head resting on the side of the soft cloth, and fell asleep.

After the rain was over, the next morning, Chu Shaojie took a routine walk around the yamen. He had nothing to do, so he simply took the little black rabbit and rode to Xikou Village to find Chen Bohan.

Chen Bohan was indeed a big poultry farmer in the county town, and he asked for directions along the way. Everyone knew him, and also knew that Chu Shaojie was the new magistrate of the county, with a handsome appearance, and they eagerly showed him the way.

He quickly found the courtyard of the Chen family, with a high fence, and a group of white geese pecking insects and grazing beside it. He rode on the horse, patted the little black rabbit in his pocket, and shouted: "Is Chen Bohan there?"

After a while, a middle-aged man opened the door and looked at him curiously, "I am Chen Bohan, are you?"

Chu Shaojie turned over and got off the horse, keeping his palm under the rabbit, "Excuse me, can you heal my rabbit's wound? I'll pay the consultation fee."

Chen Bohan took the rabbit from his hand, "Go into the house."

The rabbit nest didn't struggle in Chen Bohan's hand, and when he sensed that the opponent was going to turn its hind legs, it began to struggle, making gestures with its front legs, and crawled forward indiscriminately.

Chu Shaojie saw the fierce action of it, and stretched out his hand to hug it back, but he saw Chen Bohan took out a porcelain pot from his arms, opened it, put it in front of its nose and sniffed it, and the little rabbit quickly lay on its stomach docilely.

He asked: "This is?"

Chen Bohan said: "A kind of incense that calms the mind and helps sleep. I have raised poultry for many years. When encountering more ferocious live poultry, they are not easy to discipline. They often break free from the cage and fight and get injured. It is not an option after many years. So I collected it. The medicinal herbs make this incense, let them smell it for a while, and they will stop struggling, so it will be convenient for me to apply the medicine."

After checking, Chen Bohan found that the little black rabbit was not seriously injured.

"Both of its eyes were poked with a branch-like thing and bled, making it blind after the injury."

Chu Shaojie frowned, "Is it blind now?"

Chen Bohan nodded, "That's right, fortunately, it was discovered in time, and it takes time to take care of it well, so there is a chance of recovery. This is not the most serious injury, the most serious injury is on its left hind limb."

Chu Shaojie noticed that the little black rabbit was limping when he got up yesterday, so he hurriedly asked, "Is the doctor okay?"

"Perhaps, its hind limbs were cut off by a sharp weapon. It should be used as a trap for hunting raptors. It is not easy for it to survive. It has been exposed to rain, and the wounds have repeated inflammation. If it drags on for too long, I am afraid that it will be limping in the future." a leg."

Chu Shaojie wrapped the skinny and helpless little black rabbit in his palm, and when he left with the medicine bag, he thought that he might keep it and raise it forever.

At first, Chu Shaojie only showed kindness to save the rabbit, and then released the rabbit back to the forest after its wound healed.Now the rabbit is blind and lame, and if he is sent back to the mountain, he may not live for a few days and become the prey of wild beasts.

He lightly weighed the rabbit in his pocket, "Little thing, I left you behind."

The little black rabbit fumbled around, and slapped his chest with its paws.

Little black rabbit, black and black, pitiful and pitiful.
