his dragon [farming]

Chapter 3 Night 1

A light bulb hung under the eaves of the kitchen, illuminating the cups, plates and saucers on the table. Some dishes were so dark that it was impossible to see what they were.Qiuhe tasted it, and it was too salty, so he stopped stretching his chopsticks.Fortunately, there was a plate of pickled cucumbers that was quite tasty, paired with warm mung bean porridge, which made Qiuhe sweat.

With a good wish to get acquainted with grandpa as soon as possible, while eating, he told Shen Baocheng about his adventures after arriving in the town.When it comes to the squirrels I met under the tree, I can't help but make a lot of fuss.

Shen Baocheng obviously adhered to eating without talking or sleeping, and he seldom talked at the dinner table. After Qiu He finished speaking, he opened his mouth and said: "The supermarket next to the station is your Hua Niangniang."

Qiu He nodded, recalling the strange title of Empress Hua, and thinking of the boy named Bai Chuan, a little annoyed, "Grandpa, are you familiar with that guy named Bai Chuan next door?"

Shen Baocheng looked up at him.Qiu He was so hot that his face was pale and powdery, his hair was wet with sweat, and locks fell on his forehead, and there was an angry look in his eyes.

Qiu He complained: "Why does he look down on people?"

"He's like this with people he doesn't know well." Shen Baocheng paused for a while, and then suddenly said solemnly: "When you are alone, don't drill into the mountains."

Qiu He nodded obediently, but then asked, "Why?"

"There are bears in the mountains."

Qiu He was very surprised: "Really? Have you seen it? What kind of bear? Has anyone been bitten in this town?"

"Bears don't come to town." Shen Baocheng looked at Qiuhe's bowls and chopsticks, and asked, "Don't you want to eat?"

"I'm done eating." Qiu He didn't notice Shen Baocheng's disappointed expression, and he was all hung up on the bear, thinking that it was important to figure this out and save his life, so he asked again: "Are there many bears in the mountains? Really not Come to town?"

"Well," Shen Baocheng began to tidy up the bowls and chopsticks, seeing that Qiuhe was going to help serve the dishes, he turned around and said, "I took a long car, so I took a shower early and went to sleep."

"what?"

Qiu He was stunned, and looked at his watch, it was only eight o'clock.Usually at this time, he is still fierce.He asked in disbelief: "This, so early sleep?"

"If you can't sleep, watch TV for a while." Shen Baocheng moved the small table into the kitchen, took out a small pot with a lid, and went out with a flashlight, "You go to bed first, and I'll go to town. I'll be back in a while." .”

Qiuhe stood at the gate of the courtyard, watching his grandfather turn to the next door with the vegetables, and when he came out after a while, the pot in his hand was gone.Afterwards, the light of the flashlight continued to shine on him towards the town.

When Shen Baocheng was far away, Qiu He went back to the room, changed his mobile phone to another calling card, and called Shen Lin.

Shen Lin was already anxiously waiting, and when she heard Qiu He's voice, she immediately asked what happened just now.

Qiu He told his mother about the afternoon's experience one by one, and Shen Lin was obviously relieved.

Qiu He thought of that table of food. Although it was not delicious, it was undeniably sincere, "Student Shen Shiliu, your decision not to come back is wrong! Grandpa cooked a big pot of pork ribs and prepared a table of dishes! It's a pity you can't eat it."

"Cut! It's not like I haven't seen what kind of cooking he cooks!" Shen Lin sneered: "Besides, if I go back, there may be a stick waiting for the two of us!"

Qiu He: "What kind of enmity is this between you two! Can't you just meet and smile to end your grievances?"

"I can't, how can it be so easy?" Shen Lin was silent for a moment, and then said: "Wait for me, I'll see if I can transfer all the company's business to the county seat. Your health may be better by then, we will Buy a house in the county seat. If you can’t do it, you can go to the No. [-] Middle School in the county to go to school, and the enrollment rate in No. [-] Middle School is not bad!”

The mother and daughter chatted for another half an hour.After hanging up the phone, Qiu He turned on all the lights in the room and looked from room to room.

In the middle of the main room is the main room, which is a cabinet TV, and now there is an extra refrigerator.There are bedrooms on both sides, he lives on the left, and the grandfather lives on the right.In addition to the kitchen, the East Wing is connected to a fire room. Because it is summer, a layer of dust has settled on the stove and chimney.The west wing is a utility room, where some farm tools are piled up on one side, and a wire is pulled on the other side, and towels are hung.On the floor against the wall were two new pots, apparently bought for him.

Without a shower head and a water heater, it was impossible to take a shower, so Qiuhe fetched hot water from the iron pot in the kitchen and looked around.After all, he didn't want to stand in the courtyard to wash, so he brought it to the west wing.

He took off his clothes and hung them on the wire. Halfway through, he found that there was still a window in the wing room without a curtain.Looking out from the window, there is a wall one meter away, which is about facing the wing of the next door.

Qiuhe guessed that this was an alley between two houses, and no one would pass by, so she felt relieved and continued to take off her clothes and take a bath.

While washing, I thought, this is not good, it is too inconvenient!So good to coax grandpa to install a shower.

However, seeing how the stubborn old man rejects the electrical appliances Shen Lin bought, I'm afraid this will not be an easy task.

At the same time, I thought that if I wanted to build a shower room in my grandfather's house, I might even have to redesign the drainage system, which was really distressing.Just as he was thinking about it, he let out a long sigh, and suddenly heard a sound from Huo Lang outside the wall, as if something had fallen to the ground.

"Who?"

Qiu He was startled, yelled out the window with a loud voice, but no one answered.

He wrapped a towel around his waist indiscriminately, opened the window and looked out.

The alley outside was less than one meter wide, dark and empty.The light shone on the opposite wall, and a gecko scrambled past it.

Could it be a bear?

Thinking of this, Qiu He suddenly felt a chill on his back, and couldn't help but get scared.Just as he was about to close the window, he suddenly saw a reflective metal object lying under the wall. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a pot lid.

The lid of the pot looked familiar, like the one my grandfather took to the next door.

He was full of suspicion, and was about to close the window, when he suddenly saw two long legs protruding from the diagonally opposite wall, and then Bai Chuan appeared in the narrow alley.

Holding an uncovered pot in his hand, he walked over silently, bent down and picked up the cover on the ground, handed the pot and cover to Qiu He, and said blankly, "Here."

Qiu He: ...

Bai Chuan stuffed the pot into Qiu He, turned around and left.I saw him take two steps, and with a flick of his long legs, he stepped into the wall and disappeared effortlessly, as if stepping over a threshold.

Only then did Qiuhe realize that there was a window of their wing room!

He was holding the iron pot blankly, his eyes fell on his naked body, and he was about to go crazy in an instant!

what to do?I really want to hit someone!I really want to kill this damn guy!

This crazy person, why doesn't he leave the door instead of opening the window?It's okay to run to the window in the middle of the night to be scary, but I still... saw him taking a bath!

Thinking of being stared straight at him standing under the lamp just now, Qiu He couldn't calm down!It's embarrassing even if it's a boy, okay?They are not familiar with each other!

Qiuhe put the pot heavily on the ground.He dried his body indiscriminately, and put on his vest and pajama pants in twos and threes.Angrily, he took the pot back to the kitchen, angrily found two nails, pulled a rope above the window, and finally angrily found an old bed sheet and hung it up, making a simple curtain.

After finishing all this angrily, Qiu He stood in the small courtyard for a while, his anger gradually calmed down, and only then did he realize that the surroundings were unusually dark.

I don't know when the wind blew up.The towering canopy of trees around the house, swaying in the dark, looks very suspicious.There are small lumps protruding from the dark ridge of the roof. At night, it looks like a wild beast squatting.There are strange shadows in the strange small courtyard, and the darkness oppresses the light into a small piece, illuminating Qiu He and his lonely shadow.

Grandpa hadn't come back yet, Qiu He was a little scared, so she simply closed the door of the main room, went into the room and went to bed.

Even though it was summer, the room was not too hot. Qiuhe was lying under the mosquito net, shaking an old cattail fan, a little worried that grandpa would come.

He won't meet a bear on the road, will he?

No, he said it all, the bear wouldn't come to town.

But that's not sure, is it?What's more, it looks like it's going to rain.

The countryside is so dark, so there are no ghosts, right?

I was full of entanglement and anxiety, when I suddenly heard a knock on the door outside, accompanied by Shen Baocheng's high-pitched shout: "Qiu He, open the door!"

Qiu He got up and saw Shen Baocheng standing outside the door intact, and there were no bears behind him, let alone zombies or ghosts.

After Shen Baocheng entered the house, he went back to his room, lay on the bed, and felt particularly at ease when he heard the clanging and washing in the yard.

Grandpa seemed to be busy with other things in the yard after taking a shower, and he was busy for a long time.Qiuhe listened, tired of driving for days, and unconsciously fell asleep.

In the middle of the night he seemed to be back at school again.The setting sun shines from the gate of the campus, and the black iron gate casts long shadows.The campus was empty and silent, as if all the classmates and teachers had left, and he was the only one left.

Under the empty bicycle shed, Qiu He saw a boy standing quietly against the pillar of the shed, with earphones plugged into his ears, and his hands in his trouser pockets.

That is Wang Junxu.

He wanted to run subconsciously, but found that he couldn't move suddenly.

Wang Junxu turned his head and smiled at him, showing his white teeth. "Qiuhe, why are you here now? Get in the car! I'll take you along the way!"

A teenage boy had a clean and bright smile, but Qiu He saw something weird.Sure enough, the next moment his face suddenly magnified, and he was close to Qiu He's face, and his snort sprayed directly on his face.

"Why are you ignoring me?" He frowned, forcing Qiu He against the wall at the corner of the carport, "Why? We used to be pretty good, didn't we?"

Before he could finish speaking, Qiu He's mouth was blocked by a mass of moist and warm stuff.Those are Wang Junxu's lips!His tongue was like a warm and sticky reptile, crawling around Qiu He's face, trying to crawl into his tightly closed mouth.

Qiuhe wanted to shout, struggle, kick, and slam him to the ground.But he couldn't move.It was as if he was wrapped in a transparent cocoon, so tightly bound that he couldn't even breathe out.

But his consciousness was extremely clear at this moment. Through Wang Junxu, he saw a person standing at the end of the car shed. The person turned his head and looked at Qiu He indifferently, and it turned out to be Bai Chuan.

Qiu He woke up from the dream, her heart beating wildly.The feeling in the dream was so real, he clearly felt the tight pain in his chest, and he couldn't help coughing.

Coughing and groping for the medicine bottle beside his pillow, he was amazed by the fragments of the dream that remained in his mind. He had often dreamed about that scene in school recently, but, hell, how could he dream of the boy next door? ?

Qiu He pinched the cool bottle, tasted the familiar bitter taste, and it took a long time before she gradually calmed down.

Suddenly there was a strong wind outside the house, and the bamboo forest crackled for a while, and the sound gradually died down.

It was as if some wild animal roared away from behind the house.

There was complete silence all around.The room was dark, and the moonlight came in through the window, leaving a rectangular white spot in front of the bed.

Qiu He lifted the mosquito net, tiptoed out of bed, walked out the door, and stood in the yard for a while.

The square roofs outline a dark blue sky, and a round of bright moon hangs in the sky.The moonlight filled the beams of the house, and the yard was silvery white.Far and near, only the chirping of summer insects can be heard, one after another.

Suddenly there was a rattling sound in the air.

Qiu He looked up, and saw a big bird flapping its wings in the boundless moonlight, slowly flying across the extremely high, far, and deep night sky.It is lonely, and it squawks from time to time. The sound is clear and clear, and it can be heard far away in the night.

In this lonely cry, Qiu He suddenly realized that he was really in a small town.

This kind of touch hurt him deeply, and he realized very clearly that he had indeed arrived at a place he didn't understand at all, and there was a group of people he didn't understand at all.This is a truly strange place.

A little bitterness and sorrow welled up in my heart.

At this moment, he missed the city thousands of miles away and the people living there.Of course, Wang Junxu's stupidity must not be included.

That was the place where he grew up. Although the air was bad and the traffic was congested, he had many classmates and friends there.He misses the time he spent with them in ice cream parlors, movie theaters, and book bars. They filled every corner of the city with their youthful time.

However, he couldn't go back.If his body can't get better and stronger, I'm afraid he will have to stay in this strange town for the rest of his life.A lifetime, such a long time, there is no end in sight for a child of his age.

I'm going to be a bumpkin, he thought.

The boy in the moonlight sighed, and lowered his head preoccupied.
