his dragon [farming]

Under the scorching red sun, the dilapidated bus, like a shiny beetle, crawled slowly along the white road, and finally stopped by the small stone bridge.A young man got out of the car, carrying a heavy backpack, striding towards the town.

In the shade of the big locust tree at the head of the town, Empress Hua was holding a small scale to help two mothers-in-law weigh the dried melons they dried at home.Seeing clearly the young man who came up, she greeted affectionately: "Oh, isn't this a little mosquito? Visiting your third grandpa again?"

The young man was Xiao Ding, whose name was Ding Yanfei. After getting acquainted with the townspeople, everyone thought his name was a mouthful and called him Little Mosquito.After a few cold and hot days, the young boy at that time grew into a strong and tall boy.

The young man smiled and called people one by one, and walked into the shade.The people under the tree hurriedly found a bench to invite him to rest. Xiao Ding sat down, took out a pack of toffee from his bag, and opened it for everyone to eat.The mother-in-laws were modest and each tasted one, and they all nodded in praise of the deliciousness.

A mother-in-law said: "The food in the city is delicious! No wonder the little mosquito looks like this. Look, it has long legs! It's tall!"

Another mother-in-law said: "It's really changed every year. I saw that I have grown so tall. When I first came to our town, I remembered that the person named Ni Xiaoxi who lived next to Lao Shen was as tall as him. Now, in my opinion I'm afraid the mosquitoes will be a head taller than him! Poor kid who knows how to eat, but just won't grow!"

Xiao Ding's heart skipped a beat, before he could answer, Empress Hua couldn't help it.Hua Niangniang is doing business on the Internet now, and she knows a lot of hot words, so she said, "What's the matter! Some people grow fast, while others grow slowly. Who can say that they have good genes!"

A mother-in-law shivered slightly and said with shame: "Why is it because of the chicken and the duck? We can't understand it!"

Hua Niangniang explained: "It's good to plant (three times)! It's like saying that parents are horses, and they won't raise muntjacs anyway!"

Xiao Ding was drinking water with his head held high, he immediately choked and coughed.The mothers-in-law suddenly realized, nodded and said yes, "Dragon begets dragon, phoenix begets phoenix, the son of mouse can make holes, the old saying is true!"

Everyone under the tree chatted again, Xiao Ding watched Hua Niangniang upload the melon dry, and listened to her explain the business experience on the Internet. After sitting for a while, he resigned from his mother-in-law, put on his backpack and walked towards the town.

The town is still the same, with dense shade on both sides of the road, and the sound of cicadas along the way.As he walked towards the foot of Nanshan Mountain, he thought, Ni Xiaoxi, growing too slowly is also a trouble, he has to discuss it with Qiuhe some other day, and he has to find a way to cover it up.

From this, I thought of Qiu He and Bai Chuan.Those two people are the same as Xiaoxi, their physiques are different from ordinary people. After a few years, their appearances have not changed. After a long time, the townspeople will definitely be surprised.It's not urgent right now, but I will definitely have to find another way in the future.

Walking while thinking, he gradually walked down the south hillside, and saw his third uncle's small courtyard house from a distance.A large group of purple hydrangeas bloomed under the wall, and there was an old man sitting on the steps of the door. Who was it but old man Ding?

Xiao Ding hurriedly called out to Third Uncle, waved and trotted over.

Seeing his third uncle humming indifferently, he stood up, patted the ashes on his buttocks, turned around and walked into the house.Xiao Ding followed into the house, and the yard was scattered and untidy, but the ground was clean, and he must have just swept it before he arrived.

Thinking of the sloppy third uncle cleaning up the yard in a hurry, Xiao Ding lowered his head and laughed.

After dinner that night, Lao Ding began to test Xiao Ding's homework.Although Xiao Ding is currently a student of a medical school in the provincial capital, his more important identity is that he is the candidate for the Ding family's next hunting master stationed in Liangshi Town. Therefore, during winter and summer vacations, Xiao Ding will definitely come to Liangshi Town to follow Lao Ding stayed for a while, and learned hunting skills and medicinal herbs by the way.

The two were gesturing under the lamp, when Lao Ding's broken cell phone rang, but it was Qiu He who heard that Xiao Ding had arrived, so he specially called and invited them to come over to play, and conveyed Ni Xiaoxi's words: "It's so hard to look forward to Xiao Ding's vacation." , a few people must make an appointment together, and play two games as soon as possible.

When it came to playing ball, Ding immediately agreed enthusiastically.Early the next morning, after the grandpa and grandson had breakfast, Xiao Ding rushed to Shen's house.As soon as the two walked up the small slope next to Shen's house, they saw a black boy Xiong Jiu riding a greyhound for a walk under the fiery red pomegranate tree in the distance. It was Ni Xiaoxi and the Great Sage.

Shen Dasheng had grown up like a calf, and it was easy for him to hunch over.As soon as he saw Lao Ding, the great sage rushed forward, knocked the greyhound prince on his back to the ground, and rushed over quickly, shaking his head and tail to pay attention to Lao Ding.

Seeing his own grandson this time, Lao Ding squatted down to smooth the dog's hair with great comfort, and said with a smile: "I'm still a good boy! I know grandpa! I don't love you for nothing!"

Ni Xiaoxi got up from the ground angrily, and seeing Xiao Ding, his anger turned into joy, and he rushed over affectionately and shouted: "Little mosquito!"

At this moment, the door of the small courtyard of the Shen family rang softly, and a young man came out from inside.

Even if we meet every year, Ding Yanfei can't help feeling amazed when he sees Qiuhe again.Compared with the year when they first met, Qiuhe seemed to have grown stronger, but her face was frozen at the stage between teenagers and youths.Under the soft short black hair, there is a shiny white skin, and delicate and clear eyebrows.

Xiao Ding touched his acne-prone face, feeling very jealous in his heart, thinking, everyone is obviously my brother, but they look younger than me, it's really annoying!

Qiu He stood in front of the door with a smile and asked, "Mosquito, are you on holiday so early this year?"

"I took the train back that night after I finished the last class." Xiao Ding walked into the house and saw that he was still neatly wearing a white shirt in the hot weather, and asked casually, "Brother Qiuhe, why are you covering up so tightly?" ? Are you not hot?"

Qiu He smiled and didn't answer, but said: "Some people are looking forward to it day and night, and finally they are looking forward to you."

"Who misses me so much? Who?" Xiao Ding looked around for a while, then turned to ask Ni Xiaoxi: "Could it be you?"

Hei Kid nodded his head immediately.Lao Ding laughed beside him, and said, "You still miss people? You miss the sweet-scented osmanthus duck, right?"

Everyone laughed, Hei boy was exposed for his true colors, he was ashamed and angry, and said loudly: "You have wronged me! I didn't want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus duck!"

Xiao Ding entered the yard, greeted Shen Baocheng, and took out gifts from his bag. Seeing that Hei Boy was upset, he hurriedly comforted him and said, "Don't bother with them! I believe in you! I miss you too! Look, I I brought you ducks again!"

Ni Xiaoxi suddenly lost his spine, ran up happily, took his sweet-scented osmanthus duck, and hurriedly squatted beside him to share with the Great Sage.

Here Shen Baocheng was very happy to meet the grandson of the Ding family, and he was busy serving fruit and making tea.Several people sat down in a group in the small courtyard of the Shen family, and Xiao Ding took out the presents for everyone.Shen Baocheng was very displeased, so he declined, and Lao Ding said impatiently: "Why are you being polite to him! He is a junior, he deserves it!"

Xiao Ding also said: "Every time I come here, I will disturb my grandfather and my brothers. A little care is nothing!"

Shen Baocheng waved his hand and said: "This is too outlandish! According to me, I wish you could come every day!"

Qiu He also said: "Grandpa Ding also told me about it two days ago, saying that fortunately you don't dislike the hardships in the mountains and are willing to come to accompany him, otherwise he would be so deserted around a lonely old man!"

Xiao Ding had never heard this from his majestic uncle, so he hurriedly glanced at Lao Ding, who felt very uncomfortable, coughed, stopped Qiu He, and said, "Where's Bai Chuan? "

Xiao Ding hurriedly asked, "Why don't you see my mother-in-law?"

It turned out that Bie's mother-in-law had just returned to her hometown some time ago, saying that there were some local matters waiting for her to deal with, and she would come back when it was over, while Bai Chuan was patrolling the mountains and did not return.After several people sat in the yard and finished drinking tea, Lao Ding began to instruct Xiao Ding to treat Shen Baocheng's leg.

Shen Baocheng's injured leg was always aching in winter.At first, he refused to tell the truth, but after Qiuhe found out, he discussed with Lao Ding, and he wanted to take advantage of the hot weather to treat the disease in winter and summer to get rid of the disease.

Lao Ding now has many disciples and is also arrogant, before he started, he sat down in front of Shen Baocheng with a big horse and a golden knife, and Qiu He brought water to wash his hands, while Xiao Ding waited on and handed the needle.Lao Ding gave acupuncture and taught on the spot. Even the black boy and the dog who ate ducks held their breath and did not dare to speak loudly.The courtyard was very quiet for a while, but after a while, a soft sound was heard in the west wing, and Bai Chuan came out from the room.

Over the past few years, compared with Qiu He, Bai Chuan has hardly changed.Time has not left any marks on him, even his temper is the same, and he is still indifferent when he meets people.

Holding the needle bag in his hand, Xiao Ding raised his eyes and said, "Senior brother, are you back?"

Bai Chuan hummed, smiled at him, and came over to observe and study.

Xiao Ding then thought, there is still a change, and the elder brother has become more smiling.

After the needles were all inserted, Lao Ding began to repeat the technical points to Xiao Ding, and Bai Chuan entered the kitchen with a rabbit in his hand.

Qiu He also followed in and asked, "Why have you been here for so long today?"

"Walking around." Bai Chuan washed his hands, shook off the water, looked at Qiuhe, smiled, and said, "I saw the Grizzly family. The Grizzly has become a father."

"Really? Did you see the baby bear?" Qiu He's eyes widened, "Quickly tell me, what does it look like? Is it cute?"

Bai Chuan nodded, gestured and said, "It's so big, it's like a soft ball of fur. Roll behind the grizzly bear."

"I want to see it! Take me to see it later!" Qiu He immediately cheered softly with an idiot-like face.

Bai Chuan looked at him and smiled, his eyes almost dripping with honey. After a while, he remembered something again, pulled Qiu He to him, and whispered, "Come here and let me have a look."

He unbuttoned Qiu He's tight neckline, pulled the collar and looked in.

Qiu He was a little embarrassed, slapped his hand away, still buttoned his clothes, stared at him and said coolly: "You still have the face to see!"

Bai Chuan pursed his lips and smiled, pulled the man back again, put his forehead against his forehead, and whispered, "Don't you like it?"

Qiu He's face became hot, she pushed him, and said in a low voice, "Stop being so frivolous! You're getting more and more crazy!"

But Bai Chuan grabbed his hands, leaned over and kissed him on the mouth, and said, "I'm willing to be crazy with you!"

Qiu He didn't speak, but put his arms around his waist and pecked him on the mouth.

The two of them were getting bored in the kitchen. They didn't want Ni Xiaoxi to have a dry mouth after eating the duck, so he walked in to drink water. Seeing this scene, he immediately said contemptuously: "Rogue!"

Qiu He broke his merits immediately, leaned over the chopping board and laughed.However, Bai Chuan felt that the two balls were very obtrusive, looked around, and ordered: "Go! Take the rabbit to the stream and wash it clean."

Ni Xiaoxi was only thinking about the unfinished duck, and immediately said angrily: "Why?"

Bai Chuan said: "You are the youngest!"

Ni Xiaoxi retorted: "The mosquito is smaller than me!"

Bai Chuan said: "Mosquitoes are guests!"

Ni Xiaoxi snapped back angrily: "I won't do it!"

"No work, no food!"

Ni Xiaoxi originally wanted to leave in a fit of anger, but then thought that her big backer was not at home now, and for lunch, she had to hold back her anger, so she grinned and took the rabbit out.

Bai Chuan added another sentence: "By the way, catch a fish and come back."

Hei boy couldn't bear it anymore, rushed to Shen Baocheng's place, and complained loudly: "Grandpa, they bullied me again!"

Shen Baocheng naturally comforted him, then yelled at the kitchen, and finally calmed down the complaint.Xiao Ding said again: "I want to eat fresh fish, wait for me to go with you!" Then Ni Xiaoxi and Xiao Ding took the Great Sage to the stream.

After a group of people had lunch and rested for a while, Ni Xiaoxi eagerly urged everyone to play.Qiu He said: "Grandpa, you also go to watch the game! I will carry you up the tree!"

Shen Baocheng quickly waved his hands and said, "I'm not going! I'm dizzy! You go play your game. I'll cook dinner at home!" At the end, he urged: "Playing is playing ball, but be careful, don't fall off the tree! "

Bai Chuan hurriedly said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I'm here."

Only then did the few people go out and walk into the mountains with the dog.The weather was fine that day, and the sunlight penetrated through the dense leaves, casting countless swaying spots of light on the forest path.When they reached the depths of the forest, Ni Xiaoxi took the lead in leaping onto the treetops and swept forward, followed by several people, while the Great Sage walked through the forest, and they all headed towards the valley court.

Speaking of which, Qiuhe was the first to bring up the matter of playing basketball.Since his health improved, he has been eager to try ball games that he had no chance to try before. He has played basketball, football and baseball successively.It's a pity that in the remote mountain town, apart from Bai Chuan and Xiao Xi, there is no comparable opponent.Later, in order to make up a two-on-two game, the three dragged Lao Ding in.At first, Lao Ding wanted to save face, and felt that it was shameful for him to be an old hunter with a lot of status, and to hang out with a bunch of kids. After he played ball twice, he realized that hunting teaching could be done by playing ball, so he suddenly became enthusiastic. Get up and drag Xiao Ding into the water.From then on, it became a routine for Xiao Ding to play together during summer vacation.

The stadium they often go to is somewhere in the back mountain of Liangshi Town.Between the two confronting peaks, there is a long and narrow valley, the size of four or five football fields, with dense trees and varied terrain.Bai Chuan found a big tree on the top of the two mountain peaks, and hung a small bamboo basket on the top, which was regarded as a goal.The so-called ball game is divided into two groups to fight against each other. Throwing the ball into the opponent's basket counts as one point, and the one with the highest score wins.

It is not easy for an ordinary hunter to stand firmly on the top of a tree, let alone play on it!The top of a tree is no better than the ground. Before taking off, one has to calculate the landing point, observe the terrain and dodge the opponent. People or the ball will be punished if they accidentally fall on the ground. Stimulate!Even Lao Ding had to grind the ball for a few games on the ground before he dared to climb a tree to compete.

After they arrived, they discussed for a while and decided that Bai Chuan and Qiu He should be in one group, and Ni Xiaoxi and Ding's grandparents in the other group.At the beginning of the game, Lao Ding held a basketball and stood on a giant pine tree in the middle of the valley. Qiu He and Xiao Ding stood on both sides, each on the treetops five meters away, ready to jump the ball.Lao Ding threw the ball into the air as hard as he could, and he threw it more than ten meters high. He shouted again and started. Then Qiu He and Xiao Ding jumped up at the same time and rushed towards the ball.

The two met in the air, and Xiao Ding made the first move, kicking several times in succession.Qiu He dodges one by one, but slaps obliquely, Xiao Ding blocks in the air, and he uses this force to jump higher.Xiao Ding hangs the golden hook upside down again, forcing Qiu He to get out of the way so that he can jump forward.In the blink of an eye, the two of them had gone through more than ten moves in the air, and in the end it was Qiu He who won the cut, reached the basketball first, slapped it, and there was a loud bang, the ball flew straight towards Bai Chuan on the opposite side like a shooting star chasing the moon. go.

Bai Chuan flew over to catch the ball, but Lao Ding rushed out from the slanting stab, stretched out his hands sideways, grabbed the ball, and flew towards the opponent's basket.Bai Chuan followed closely, and the two fought all the way. Seeing that he was invincible, Lao Ding watched Ni Xiaoxi fly to the left to meet him, hurriedly turned around, and passed the ball to him.

Unexpectedly, Qiuhe rushed over quickly, and fought with Ni Xiaoxi in the air. Bai Chuan shook off Lao Ding and came to meet him. At this moment, Xiao Ding came halfway, like the wind. Generally catch the ball and continue to fly towards the goal.

Ni Xiaoxi blindly entangled Qiuhe so that he couldn't escape.The two fought and walked, and gradually approached the foot of the mountain.Qiu He couldn't help being anxious, shook off Hei Boy, and rushed towards Xiao Ding.At this time, there was a gust of wind, and two figures flew back and forth, but it was Bai Chuan who left Lao Ding behind and rushed over.

Bai Chuan had several ups and downs, and had already caught up with Xiao Ding in the middle of the mountain. He shot like lightning, kicked Xiao Ding off the plate, but his hand came to grab the ball. Take it away.

Bai Chuan flew into the air with the ball, passed Xiao Ding, then swung past Lao Ding, made a long pass in the air, and passed the ball to Qiu He who had already turned around and swooped back.

Qiu He hugged the ball and ran wildly, Ni Xiaoxi and Xiao Ding surrounded him from the left and right sides, while the rabbit was rising and the falcon was falling, they gradually approached.Seeing that Bai Chuan was coming from behind, Qiu He took a look at the gap, feinted twice, and passed the ball to Bai Chuan again.

Lao Ding, who was following Bai Chuan over there, immediately became entangled.Ni Xiaoxi went to meet him, but Qiuhe got rid of Xiaoding and ran forward.After Bai Chuan broke out from between Lao Ding and Ni Xiaoxi, he jumped up and passed the ball to Qiu He again in mid-air.

Holding the ball, Qiuhe flew towards the peak, passed Xiaoding, stepped five or six meters in one step, put his feet on a raised branch, and made a three-step layup in the air, separated by seven or eight meters, Throw the ball steadily into the bamboo basket on the top of the peak.

Qiu He yelled, flew towards Bai Chuan, and gave each other high fives.

Both of them were sweating a little, and their lips were red, their teeth were white, and their eyebrows were handsome. Bai Chuan wiped the sweat off Qiu He's face, and praised: "The head is very good, young man!"

Qiu He also praised him, saying: "Where! It's all because of your skill, young man!"

Bai Chuan laughed and said, "The three-step layup just now is so handsome!"

Qiu He: "That ball was passed really well! I'll be more careful with you!"

The two complimented each other, hearing their opponents feel very numb and in pain, Hei boy angrily ran to hug the ball and shouted: "Stop moaning, come again!"

The five people flickered back and forth over the valley, galloping back and forth, fighting hard for half a day, and stopped sweating profusely in the evening.In the end, Bai Chuan and Qiu He won with a score of [-]:[-] without any suspense.

Several people jumped down from the tree, Lao Ding wanted to take someone to Shen Baocheng's house for dinner, but Bai Chuan and Qiu He were going to see the newborn grizzly bear first.The black boy leech couldn't hear the sound of the water, and as soon as he heard it, he saw it curiously, and immediately clamored to go, but was dragged away by Xiao Ding's collar.

The three of them led the Great Sage out of the forest, while listening to Lao Ding explaining the wins and losses on the field just now, and how to win by uniting and cooperating.Talking while walking, I gradually reached a valley, and suddenly saw a large canopy full of red flowers in full bloom on the opposite slope, without a trace of green leaves, flowing down the slope like a red waterfall.

Xiao Ding ran over to take a closer look, and then exclaimed again, "Third Uncle, it's the Bana Flower! It's the Bana Flower!"

Lao Ding glanced at it, and said lightly: "We don't have such messy names here, this is the red flower Lycoris, also known as the old crow flower."

After finishing speaking, he walked forward leisurely with his hands behind his back. Ni Xiaoxi was not surprised when he was used to it, and even asked Xiao Ding to follow him while riding the Great Sage, saying: "What's so good about a few flowers! Let's go home and eat!"

Xiao Ding reluctantly walked out of the flowers and followed the big team, thinking, this is the Bana flower, the Bana flower that I have only seen in picture books and comics before!If he hadn't come to Liangshi Town, the red flowers all over the mountains and plains would probably only exist in fantasy.

Thinking of this, he looked up at the back of the third uncle, and was a little surprised to find that the third uncle, who had been a master for half his life, was now a little hunchbacked, and he was about to become a real old man.

Xiao Ding thought, when the third uncle gets old, let's talk about him guarding the forest.As a hunter, even if he stays in this place all his life like his uncle, he should have nothing to regret.After all, there are the scenery and people he likes here; after all, every life is worth protecting.
