I yelled, "Ma Que'er, come over and chat for a while, why my face is not so good!" Since we separated in Qingyadong last time, Ma Que'er and I have not seen each other again for more than a month.

Sparrow walked over alertly and said: "After you left that time, Seven Color Gu died. My father no longer serves as the patriarch of Qingyadong. The new patriarch always troubles my father, I am It’s been annoying for a while, and I haven’t had much rest, so my face is not so good!"

After Qi-Se Gu died, Fatty Uncle, Hua Xue and I left Qing Ya Tong. Uncle Ma Huang personally stopped the Qing Ya Tong everyone who came to catch me in order to delay the time. In addition, Qi Se Gu died, and the whole Qing Ya Tong was shaken. The replacement of ephedra is also expected.

I asked: "Then how is your father's situation?"

Sparrow said: "My dad basically lives in the corpse cave and deals with those scorpions. Many people in Qingyadong make money by raising scorpions and buying scorpions, so for the time being, I dare not go into trouble. My dad is in a bad mood. Others are okay. He has something on his mind, he always tells me that there will be a crisis in Qingyadong at any time! I don't understand..."

I understand the meaning of ephedra. The crisis he said is that the former Gu God Qicai who was expelled from Qingyatong will be invited back again, because Qicai people can breed Seven-color Gu, and Qingyatong worships Seven-color Gu. It is very scary. For Seven Color Gu, they can make any mistakes made by the Seven Colors.

The whereabouts of the colorful people are uncertain, and it will take some time to invite them back. But this is only a matter of time, so Ephedra will have this kind of worry.

I said: "Sparrow, don't think too much about it. You are still young, and no one can stop things when things come. You can just listen to your father's words. By the way, the black spider in your hand How is the pattern?"

Sparrow lowered her voice and said, "It's still the same, no change. I'm so worried, I don't dare to tell my dad. I'm afraid he is worried. Recently, he has grown a lot older."

I comforted me: "Your dad is stronger than you think. It seems that your black spider pattern has little influence on you. Don't worry too much, pay more attention to Qingyadong. If the colorful people come back Yes, remember to tell me!"

Sparrow nodded, said a few more words, and ran away. I ate the leftover rice balls and slept on the table for a long nap. In the afternoon, my spirits improved a lot, and I didn't doze off anymore.

After school, the principal left me and wrote down the notes of the courses that were left in this month, as well as the notes and knowledge points that needed to be consolidated on paper, and handed them all to me, and said: "Xiao Kang, you study hard. No matter what you do in the future, I have to learn knowledge well. Learning knowledge systematically will enable you to master the ability to learn other skills, you know?"

I was grateful to the principal in my heart. After receiving the notes and study materials, I bowed to the principal and said, "I remember. Thank you principal. You are such a good teacher."

After I went out, I looked back at the school building and found that he was standing at the door of the office with caring in his eyes. He was looking at me. Seeing me turning back, he waved and shouted, "Xiao Kang, go back earlier. Will it take two hours to walk?"

I yelled, "Principal, you also have to rest earlier, so you don't need to give me away." My heart warmed, and after I walked out of the school gate, I carried the stone on my back and started to return to Chahuadong, and finally returned to normal school time.

It was the same as the condition of carrying a stone in the morning. At first, I felt that the stone was very light. The longer the time, the heavier the stone. It took more than three hours to walk on the mountain road for two hours before returning to Camellia Cave.

It was almost dark. Before returning to the yard, I heard the cries of chickens, ducks and geese.

As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I put the stone at the courtyard gate and shouted: "Senior, I brought the stone back, and it will exhaust me. Huh... so many little lives."

An open space was opened in the yard, surrounded by a simple fence, a dozen little ducks and chickens, and four little geese, just turned around in the fence.

Uncle Fatty has set up chicken coops, duck sheds and goose nests, as well as a sink and food trough. Under the eaves of the other side, a simple hut has been nailed up with wooden boards, and the humming sound of the piglet can be heard. On the side of the pigpen, there are three black goats.

Yuyinzi and Huaxue are eating chickens, ducks and geese. Uncle Fatty is finally finishing up. He builds a sheepfold, wears only a short sleeve, and is sweaty. They are waving an iron fist to fix the nails. I was amazed by their efficiency. It was amazing that they had everything done in just one day.

I quickly ran over and turned around, and found that the atmosphere of life in the yard suddenly became much stronger, and it was much more lively than before.

With a smile on Huaxue’s face, he said, "Xiao Kang, you sit down and take a break. We have been busy for a day, and it will take a while before we can finish. If you have a stomach, go and cook first. Wait for me. To help you."

Yuyinzi said, "Isn't you lazy?"

I said, "I didn't get lazy. I moved the stone back and carried it to school. I'm not that kind of person."

I put down my schoolbag, drank a large glass of water, and sat for a while before it was better. My legs were like lead-filled. I went to the kitchen to boil and wash the rice and cook, thinking that everyone had done a day’s work, so I would cook more. Some rice.

Huaxue was also busy, came in and cut vegetables, separated two catties of fresh pork into slices, made boiled pork slices, put away the remaining half, and saved it for cooking noodles tomorrow, and fried another vegetable.

After cooking the food, Uncle Fatty was almost finished, and after taking a shower, he gathered to eat together. Yuyinzi still sat on the side, just surrounded by the smell of food. Today, I walked back and forth with a rock on my back. It consumed a lot of money. I ate two large bowls of rice and drank a bowl of soup, which made me feel full.

Huaxue also had a busy day and ate a lot. The rest was rounded up by Uncle Fatty. There was no one bite of rice left. In the end, half a large bowl of soup was completely wiped out by Uncle Fatty.

I said: "Uncle Fatty, you bought so many chickens, ducks, geese, piglets and lambs, your savings are almost running out. I saw Sparrow today, and I will ask him to bring me a box of scorpion seedlings tomorrow. Raise some scorpions to make some money."

Uncle Fatty glanced at Yuyinzi and asked, "Senior, what do you think?"

Yuyinzi said: "Very good. You can't eat your food for nothing. Don't do anything. Let him raise scorpions in the future. I think Mr. Xiao Kang will be able to raise scorpions very large, and he will definitely be able to buy them for a big price. ."

Huaxue covered her mouth and laughed.

I shouted, "No problem. Raising scorpions is just what I want. Senior will really consider it for me. Don't worry, I will definitely raise big scorpions and make a lot of money."

After a tiring day, everyone took a rest after eating dinner and washing up.

I took out the study materials I brought back, read the lights at night, and slowly digested them. The little white dog was running around in the yard. It should be a courageous mouse coming over to eat the chick. The little white dog was busy chasing the little mouse away.

After studying for a long time, my body and mind were very tired, and I lay down in the vagina, and fell asleep all at once. When I opened my eyes, I felt much better. I got up and cooked the noodles, and after eating some, I went out.

Yuyinzi met me again behind the door, and she still tried to compete with me, let me go out for fifteen minutes first, and then chase me. Not surprisingly, I lost again, still rushing to learn with the stone on my back.

After arriving at school, I found Ma Que'er and asked him to buy me some scorpion seedlings at the market price. I want to raise scorpions, make money by myself, and reduce the burden on my family.

Sparrow said: "I will grab fifty scorpion seedlings for you, and the price will not be used. But there are many ways to raise scorpions. You have to study more by yourself."

I nodded, patted my chest and said it was okay, you don't want to think about it, I am the young Scorpion King. On the second day, Mahjong brought fifty scorpion seedlings. I still bet that I would lose to Yuyinzi and go back and forth to school with a stone on my back.

Time passed, and it was September in a blink of an eye. During the Dragon Boat Festival, the four of us went to the mountains to collect insects, and we also raised some gu insects and buried them in the yard. The poultry in the yard has grown up, eggs and duck eggs are harvested every day, and so are goose eggs. Goats and piglets are also slowly growing.

Of the fifty scorpions I brought back, 18 died at the beginning. Later, I mastered the trick. The scorpions grew very large, the number was also increasing, and the size was also getting bigger. They can be bought at a good price.

In September, the new school year began, and Hua Xue went to Qingqing Primary School with me. Huaxue read a lot of books in Shuge, her knowledge level is already very high, plus she had gone to school before, very smart, and she was in sixth grade with me.

My bet with Yuyinzi is still going on, but the 10 catties of stones have become 20 catties, and I have to carry 20 catties of stones back and forth to school every day. I run a lot faster on the top of the mountain, and I keep up with my diet. In only half a year, I felt that I was much stronger and taller.

I work harder, always thinking that one day I can beat Yuyinzi and I won't have to carry that big rock again. Time passed, and a year passed in a blink of an eye. Huaxue and I finished sixth grade in Qingqing Primary School, and then we have to go to school in the county.

The principal hoped that Huaxue and I could continue to school, and even talked to the fat uncle specially.

Uncle Fatty said: "Yes, we let the two children go to school. It takes a few hours to go to school from Chahuadong to the county seat. I can't worry about letting them stay in school."

Yuyinzi said, "If this is so difficult, I will rent a house in the county town. I will take care of them in the county town. You live in Camellia Cave, and the scorpions are harvested, and there will be tuition fees. There are also shredded tobacco, goats and pigsty pigs. You can sell it for money, don’t worry so much!"

Huaxue and I were overjoyed after hearing Yuyinzi's words.
