Looking at Chang Yousheng's despondent look, Yuan Lingjun couldn't help but twitched the corners of his lips.

He glanced around the yard—

Xiaowa was eating hamburgers, Jingwei was laughing at Changyou, Lili and Lilian were sticking out their buttocks, burying their heads in writing and drawing in the yard, while Tengu was lying in the nest at the door basking in the moon, wagging its beautiful tail.

There was a slight fluctuating sound of water flowing from the water tank by the kitchen, Yuan Lingjun stepped forward and knocked on the wall of the tank with great interest.

There's... no fish in it.

Yes, the large shadow that seems to be lying in the water is actually a few stones, and I don't know where He Luoyu found it.

"Jingwei, come quickly," Yuan Lingjun called out, "Our spicy fish has been kidnapped!"

"What?" Jingwei flapped his wings and flew over.

The one who pays more attention to this matter is the hawk as a water bird. It has long regarded the Luo fish as its own thing, and even thought about how to eat the extra nine tails. Before the oil was put into the pan, the fish ran away.

Can this be tolerated?

"Boo-gu-gu-gu!" The lizard slapped the sole of its foot on the ground.

grab it!

eat it!

Braised, boiled, steamed and charcoal grilled!

Yuan Lingjun: "..."

The disappearance of a fish is originally a small matter, but it is very subtle to connect it with the baby thief incident that just happened.

A bad premonition cast a shadow over his heart.

"He Luoyu won't be caught by the baby thief just now, right?" Yuan Lingjun said to himself: "Why does the baby thief have such strange tastes? What does she want a fish for?"

There are many thorns and it is not delicious. Could it be that she is tired of eating babies and wants to change the taste?

Not good, can't think anymore.

It would be great if Yuanyuan was here, Yuan Lingjun sighed.

Jingwei glanced at the fluctuating expression on his face, and suddenly said: "Haven't you ever thought of another possibility?"

Yuan Lingjun: "I thought about it. Do you want to say, what if He Luoyu is the baby thief himself?"

"..." Jingwei nodded.

After all, when He Luoyu disappeared and the baby thief appeared, the timing was very coincidental.

"But it's a fish that spits bubbles in the water all day, how can it survive on the shore?" Yuan Lingjun pondered: "Besides, didn't the patrol team say that the baby thief is a tall and thin woman?"

No matter how you look at it, He Luoyu doesn't match up with "thin and tall".

"Hmm..." Jingwei doesn't like fish, and he didn't pay much attention to the He Luoyu family when he was still in the wild, so he was a little confused when he heard this.

But the ostrich suddenly thought of something, yelled twice excitedly, and tap-danced on the spot while slapping its paws.

"Google, blah blah, blah blah blah blah!"

"What does it say?"

"It said that He Luoyu will transform into ashore during the rainy season in June and July. Once transformed, it will become tall and thin. It's not good to eat!"

Yuan Lingjun couldn't imagine what it would be like for a fish to become tall and thin and go ashore, but felt that this was really not a serious fish.

At this moment, maybe he finally couldn't get used to the ostrich who couldn't understand what he was talking about, Xiaowa raised his head condescendingly from the hamburger that was bigger than his face, and stumbled——

"He... Luo... Gu, Gu Huo..."

"Huh? What do you want my aunt to do?" Jingwei thought that his nephew was acting like a baby with her, so he flew over and took out a small handkerchief to wipe his mouth.

Yuan Lingjun caught the two key points in Xiaowa's words and fell into thinking.

Since both the owl and the roe owl have been eaten, the holo fish should not be a rare animal in the wilderness, and there will be a few words about its special habits.

But in the "Shan Hai Jing" in his hand, there is no mention of He Luo Yu's liking for stealing children.

Then there is only one possibility -

This was done by another beast it transformed into.

As for what kind of alien beast it is——

"Wow, did you just say 'Gu Huo'?"

The roe owl nodded.

Yuan Lingjun and Jingwei looked at each other, and realized at the same time——

"Girl catches the bird!"

……

"The guhuo bird is a daytime bird, and it often goes out in June and July. It puts on the feathers and looks like a nine-headed bird, and takes off the feathers and turns into a tall and thin woman. This kind of bird does not have children, but likes to secretly carry them away. It is raised by other people's children, so it is also called a ghost bird."

"Now it seems that this kind of bird was transformed from Heluo fish."

Thanks to a card-drawing game in his previous life, Yuan Lingjun had a little understanding of the strange beast like Guhuo Bird, and Jingwei added a little bit more, and finally pieced together a rough image.

"This is probably the only piece of good news." Yuan Lingjun pressed his forehead and heaved a sigh of relief: "Gu Huo Niao just took away and raised the child, but will not kill the kidnapped child."

"Don't worry so early," Jingwei poured cold water on him: "It is a monster after all, who knows if its parenting methods are unscientific and healthy? What if the child gets sick?"

Anyway, this bird will never take the baby to the hospital.

Yuan Lingjun sighed: "Speaking of which, we have a great responsibility. We must help the patrol team find Gu Huo Niao as soon as possible."

Jingwei rolled his eyes, and fixed his eyes on the Tengu at the door.

"By the way, when it comes to responsibility, the biggest thing is..."

Tengu: "Meow!"

……

The whole body was pitch black, only the white-cheeked Tengu was held in Yuan Lingjun's arms.

The hair on its back stood up, and Yuan Lingjun forcibly plucked it down.

"Little cow," he said, "As a housekeeper cat, if you let the fish go away, don't you feel any guilt or self-blame?"

Tengu: "Meow~"

no.

It ran alone, and didn't take money to run fish, why should it feel guilty?

Yuan Ling listened attentively and nodded.

"Okay, I already feel the self-blame and guilt that you can't contain in your heart, so let's give you a chance to reform yourself."

"Meow meow meow!"

The tengu struggled desperately while barking, but Yuan Lingjun easily suppressed its little strength.

"Starting tonight, you have to patrol the neighborhood late at night every day. When you see a crocodile flying over, catch it and atone for your crime, understand?"

Tengu shook his head desperately, but Yuan Ling turned a blind eye.

"...Anyway, whether it's catching birds or catching fish, it's in your nature. It's not difficult, right?"

Tengu: "Meow meow meow~~~~"

It opened its wet eyes wide, its claws closed on its chest, and its glaze-like eyes looked at Yuan Lingjun beggingly. Its voice was soft and soft, like a small paw, showing its pink and tender flesh pads, patting gently hit the heart.

--hard!hard!I'm just a beautiful and cute little kitten who was born to be well-clothed and well-fed. How can such a rude and barbaric thing as catching fish and birds be entrusted to me? !Why not find a substitute!

Yuan Lingjun's heart was as hard as iron, and he was unmoved. He stood up, put the dog outside the door, and said to it: "Come on! It's okay if you fail. I will deduct your cat food for three days and catch mice to make ends meet."

Then, he said to the people in the small courtyard: "Have a good rest. Tengu is on the night shift, and you are on the morning shift. When the sun rises, it will be your turn to go out and catch birds."

Guhuo Bird is a monster after all, no matter how well it hides, there will be some uncontrollable monster aura on its body, which obviously greatly facilitates its capture.

The gate of the small courtyard closed in front of the Tengu with a "snap", together with the warm yellow light inside the gate, the delicious cat food and the warm nest.

Tengu: "Meow~~~"

It squatted on the flat ground and scratched the door.

No response.

Tengu sniffed, then let out another "meow~~~".

The empty street, the cold night, the fragile kitten...how could its life be so bitter.

A leaf floated down from overhead, whirled and brushed the tengu's nose.

——Even you dare to provoke me!

Tengu suddenly arched its shoulders fiercely, and aimed at this leaf to scratch, scratch, pounce, and bite!

"Pomegranate!!!"

Its voice was no longer soft and shrill, and its pads were no longer tender and soft. The sharp nails popped out of the claw pads, tearing the plump leaves into strands of shreds with lightning speed.

Then Tengu raised his chin and looked contemptuously at this vulnerable imaginary enemy. Two clusters of faint clouds rose from under his feet, and he flew up to the three-meter-high roof with a vertical leap. He swished twice and disappeared. .

Isn't it just catching birds?

Ah!

"..."

Yuan Lingjun raised his head from the cat's eyes.

"It's quite fierce." He commented to Jingwei uncomfortably.

"I've said it all, it's an auspicious beast that wards off evil spirits, and is born to be the bane of all evil. Don't be fooled by its acting skills." Jingwei said.

She gave Yuan Lingjun an example: "In the past, on the White Deer Plain, the Tengu guarded a small village called Goujiao for generations. Whenever it encountered bandits, it would bark and be able to yell back. A beast has protected the entire village for hundreds of years. Woolen cloth!"

"Really?" Yuan Lingjun was surprised: "Then how did it become like this now?"

Jingwei was silent for a while: "Mmm..."

"how?"

"I told you not to be angry."

"Go ahead."

"These bad habits are all learned from you anthropologists," Jingwei said, "You can eat and drink well just by showing off your cuteness, and there are people screaming "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" behind you to be a cat slave, who wants to be a cat slave?" Honestly watch the door?"

"Not to mention, Tengu has acting skills and is more dedicated than many humans." She added.

Yuan Lingjun: "..."

What you say is so reasonable that I am speechless.
