In fact, Zheng Tan doesn't approve of Xiaoyouzi going into the woods. Even if it's daytime, he has seen too many dark things in the woods. Maybe when the new buildings around it are completed, they will gradually gain popularity. Let teachers and students feel safe again.
There are many deciduous trees in the woods, but there are also many evergreen species. However, secluded places always give people a feeling of darkness. Even if the eyes are lush and green, the feeling in the heart of people is always the darkness behind them.
Xiaoyouzi tightly held the rolling pin in her hand, which showed that she was still a little nervous about entering this "dangerous zone". When she followed Jiao Yuan and the others before, there were several children together, plus Jiao Yuan and Xiong Xiong. The boy was bold and didn't feel uneasy.
However, although she is alone now, perhaps because Zheng Tan is leading the way, she is not as frightened as when other children came in alone.
Zheng Tan listened to the voices coming from there. It was the voice of two children, girls, with a strong sense of fear and anxiety, and mixed in the voices of the two children, there was that one. A black-backed barking sound. At first Zheng Tan felt that it didn't show aggression, but gradually, the black-back's cry changed a bit, and he became impatient.
Children who don't have dogs and don't understand dogs can't judge their moods from the different barks and behaviors of dogs. In fact, compared to cats, dogs are generally easier to understand than cats. Zheng Tan didn't understand it before, but after becoming a cat, he often spends time with these cats and dogs, and can also accumulate some experience from daily life.
The black back would not take the initiative to attack people, nor did its calls show morbid madness. Apart from these three voices, there were no other human or animal voices, so Zheng Tan speculated that the two children should be offended. It is already, and it is still being offended, otherwise, with the temperament of the black back, it will not wait until now to become impatient.
In order to reconfirm that there are no other threats, Zheng Tan sniffed everywhere, and there was no smell of strangers. Recently, because of the holiday, no students have come here for a long time. The workers on the construction site will not come here either. When they are tired, they will find a place to smoke. They will definitely not be in the wooded area. There is a sign around them that smoking is not allowed here. If they are caught by the school, they will definitely not ask for it. Well, the New Year's salary is estimated to shrink.
After the confirmation, Zheng Tan felt much more relieved. Isn't it just two children and a dog, or a familiar dog, nothing to be afraid of.
When he finally saw those two little figures, Zheng Tan was completely relieved. There were no obvious injuries on the two children, at most they might have twisted their feet or something, so they couldn't walk for a while. Otherwise, the first reaction of the children when they saw the dog barking at them would be to turn around and run.
The two little girls didn't look much older than Xiaoyouzi. One of them was sitting on the ground with Qi bangs cut and dressed like a hairball. Seeing Xiaoyouzi was like seeing her mother. With tears in her eyes, she reached out for help. appease.
And another girl in a pink padded jacket was next to the "hairball". She didn't look like she was injured. She was holding a branch and waving it at the black back not far away, trying to drive it away.
When the girl in the pink padded jacket saw Xiaoyouzi, she said, "Is your grown-up around? Call your grown-up to help drive the dog away!"
Little grapefruit shook his head, but no adults were seen around.
Seeing Xiaoyouzi shaking her head, the two girls were suddenly depressed. There is no adult here, how can I drive this dog away
The "hairball" girl covered her injured finger and looked at the dog a few steps away. Although the dog was not yet an adult, it was not a big dog, but it was bigger than the Chihuahuas and Corgis in their yard. Big, look at the fangs in that mouth, it must hurt to bite!
When the black back noticed Xiaoyouzi and Zheng Tan approaching, he only glanced at them, and then continued to yell at the two children, his voice getting more and more rapid, but none of the children here could know what it was thinking. express what it means.
Zheng Tan looked around, then looked at the black back. He noticed that the black back looked at the "hairball" girl from time to time, and did not focus on the pink padded jacket waving the branches, but the threatening action of waving the branches did make it uncomfortable. So when I was getting impatient, I became a lot more impatient. If this is replaced by Niu Zhuangzhuang, would you dare to try to wave branches on him? Already rushed up and down to bite.
Zheng Tan walked over slowly and came to the "hairball" girl. Xiaoyouzi wanted to stop her. In her opinion, most cats and dogs can't get along with each other. The few in the compound are only exceptions. As far as I know, there is not much hostility between cats and dogs, but the dogs outside the compound are different. After seeing that her black cat's movements did not make the dog rush over, Xiaoyouzi was relieved, and at the same time, she moved over there, holding a rolling pin in her hand.
Zheng Tan circled around the "hair ball" girl, paying attention to the sight of the black back as he turned around, and finally, Zheng Tan squeezed the "hair ball" child sideways.
"What is your cat doing? Let your cat go away! This is the new clothes my uncle bought me! It's very expensive!" The hairball girl looked at Xiaoyuzi.
"It makes you move."
"If you say move, move? Don't you know my foot is twisted? It hurts to death!"
Xiaoyouzi was about to say something, but Zheng Tan had already found the source of the calamity. Pushing away the corner of the fur coat, Zheng Tan saw a yellow plastic Frisbee. The frisbee has the black back's teeth marks and smell on it.
That's it!
Zheng Tan pulled the Frisbee out, and after seeing Zheng Tan's action, the black back wanted to rush over, but was knocked back by the pink padded jacket with a branch, so the bark screamed more intensely.
"You're pressing something." Little Grapefruit reminded.
The furball girl looked around suspiciously, and then tried to move a little bit, just at this moment Zheng Tan had already dragged the Frisbee out, and then raised his paw to swipe, and the Frisbee flew out.
Seeing the frisbee, the black-back didn't care about the three of them, and before Zheng Tan started to kick the frisbee, he started wagging his tail violently. Catch it, then walk towards the construction site with the Frisbee in hand.
The owner of the black back should be walking on the side of the construction site. The side of the construction site is relatively noisy. It is no wonder that its owner did not hear the roar here, otherwise he would have started to whistle.
Seeing the dog running away, the three children breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down in their pink padded jackets, ignoring the dead leaves and soil on the ground.
The alarm was lifted, and the source of the calamity was found. The two children talked a lot, and the girl "Maoqiu" apologized to Xiaoyouzi. She was very sincere. Knowing her mistakes and correcting them is a good child. This child has a good temperament.
Zheng Tan climbed to a nearby tree and did not stay with the three children. Because that pink padded jacket always wanted to come and touch him twice, Zheng Tan turned his head and ran away, not touching him! Little girl, you still have mud on your hands!
The furball girl was talking about their previous experiences. Today, the adults went to the street to go shopping and prepare for the New Year. The two of them came out to play when they were bored at home. The classmates are from the same family compound, and the relationship is good.
I heard that there is a plum blossom forest here, and the two children came over by themselves, but they stumbled over the roots on the exposed ground, and the sprained foot could not get up for a while. She was dressed thickly, and her attention was drawn by the pain on her body. After that, you won't find anything under your butt.
The pink padded jacket took out a small packet of tissues from his pocket, wiped his hands by himself, and also let the "hairball" girl wipe the wound.
The "hairball" girl originally wanted to find some snow from the surrounding area to wash the wound, but found that the snow had almost melted, and only a thin layer of white could be seen around, and there was some black dust and other debris on the snow. , She didn't feel relieved to use this to wash the wound, so after wiping her fingers with a tissue, the "hair ball" girl looked at the fingers that were still bleeding faintly, and stuck out her tongue to lick it.
Zheng Tan and Xiaoyouzi: "..."
Seeing Xiaoyouzi looking at her in surprise, the "hairball" girl taught solemnly, "I once heard my uncles and the others say that rat saliva contains a protein called nerve growth factor. A protein-addicted wound heals twice as fast as an unpainted one!"
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Xiaoyouzi triumphantly, which meant: Look how good I am and how much knowledge I know!
Zheng Tan and Little Grapefruit: "... "Protein... Crazy
The pink padded jacket next to him looked around, and it seemed that the surrounding scenery was quite charming, but he didn't hear the conversation here.
"There is also this in human saliva?" Xiaoyouzi asked.
The "hairball" girl paused for a while, then said confidently, "Even if it doesn't, it can work, trust me, that's right!"
The pink padded jacket continued to look at the surrounding scenery and became more serious.
Little grapefruit sighed, took out a small box from the backpack and handed it to the "hairball" girl.
Zheng Tan looked at it. It was a first aid kit. Jiao Ma prepared it for everyone in the family after she was discharged from the hospital. Jiao Yuan and Gu Youzi always carried a small first aid kit in their backpacks. Come, don't worry.
"What's this?" The girl took the first aid kit, opened it, and then said "oh", "I also have a first aid kit in my room, but I have never used it." Her first aid kit was placed there like a decoration. In the room, I never thought to use it.
When he took out the disinfectant wipes to wipe the injured fingers, the girl kept screaming "Aah" and "Wow", so noisy that Zheng Tan wanted to plug his ears.
When putting on the Band-Aid, the girl felt that it would definitely hurt when others put it on, so she used the other hand to stick it, which made it even worse.
It's not a big wound anyway. Many people are too lazy to deal with such a small injury. Besides, she will go home soon, and her family will definitely deal with it again after returning, so the other two don't say anything.
"You are the second grader who speaks better English than Chinese?" the girl "Maoqiu" finally remembered and asked. Before, she felt that the girl in front of her was familiar. Once, a classmate told her that there was a transfer student in the second grade who could speak English better than Chinese. They even went to see it on purpose, thinking it was a foreign child. focus on. She didn't pay much attention to Xiaoyouzi when she first saw it just now, and she only remembered it now.
"Yes, I remember what it was called grapefruit." The pink padded jacket finally stopped looking at the scenery.
Xiaoyouzi pursed her lips and said, "My name is Gu Youzi."
"My name is Yue Lisha, from the third grade and the third class, her name is Xie Xin, I am in the same class, we are one grade older than you, then if someone in your class bullies you, you will come to us and we will support you! "Yue Lisha, the hairball girl, raised her fist and said.
"Yeah, you're welcome, you helped us this time. When you have trouble, go to Class 3 or 3 to find us, and just report your name directly. Others will know." Xie Xin nodded.
Xiaoyouzi was silent. In fact, she really wanted to say that she would skip a level next year, so that she would be in the same grade as them, but Aunty said to keep a low profile, so after thinking about it, Xiaoyouzi didn't say anything.
After a short rest, Xiaoyouzi and Xie Xin worked together to help Yue Lisha out. After leaving the woods, Xiaoyouzi asked Yue Lisha to sit in the back seat of the car, and the two of them pushed the car together.
Zheng Tan followed, and this time, he didn't jump into the basket, so as not to add another burden to them.
After arriving at an on-campus supermarket, Xie Xin went in and called her family. There were acquaintances there, so she could borrow a phone even if she didn't bring any money. After the phone call, Yue Lisha and Xie Xin sat in the small supermarket and waited for their family members to come and pick them up, and Xiaoyouzi took Zheng Tan home.
The next day, Yue Lisha's parents came to thank them and gave them many gifts. Jiao's mother didn't care about these gifts. What she cared about most was that Xiaoyouzi was able to make friends. Jiao Yuan took it with him, otherwise, almost no one would come to play with Xiaoyouzi. Although Yue Lisha and Xie Xin were from the Xi family compound, the two family areas were not too far apart, at least they could run away occasionally. It's good to talk to the children, but it's not a long-term solution to play with cats alone. People have to learn to communicate.
Two days before New Year's Eve, Jiao Yuan "closed the door to thank guests" and practiced calligraphy in his room. For the New Year at home this year, Jiao Yuan planned to go out and write couplets in person.
Zheng Tan opened the window while Jiao Yuan was sleeping at noon and went in to have a look. This little brat was quite serious.
When Jiao Yuan woke up, he saw Zheng Tan in his room. On a whim, after writing the couplet, he dragged Zheng Tan to press three cat's paw ink prints, one on the top couplet, one on the bottom couplet, and one on the horizontal line. Because of this, Zheng Tan ignored him for two days. It is difficult to wash with ink sticking to it. Although it is black, the color cannot be seen, but when Zheng Tan raised his paw, he could smell the strong ink smell. He used Xiaoyuzu fruit hand soap. didn't work either.
The day before the Chinese New Year, Zheng Tan went out for a walk. Many stores around the school were closed. Compared with the situation on the central department store commercial street, some alleys from the school to Xiao Guo's pet center were much deserted. There are very few cats. Zheng Tan heard from some people around him that there are many people who catch cats during the Chinese New Year. There are several cats around here that have disappeared, and they must be sold.
When walking around, Zheng Tan saw "Li Yuanba" who came out to patrol the street, and there was peanut candy beside him. I don't know if this is the reason why this litter gave birth to such a cub. Peanut Candy was born a circle bigger than other cats and grew faster. Now it is much bigger than other cats of the same age. Also fierce.
However, Zheng Tan is a little weird, Peanut Candy's meow is a little weird, not like other cats, and also different from Zheng Tan. Once Zheng Tan saw Peanut Candy facing a big cat in the alley, arching his back and frowning and giving out that kind of warning roar, Zheng Tan suddenly felt creepy for no reason, and the big cat was also overwhelmed. Squeeze your ears and run.
