This is an island under the stars in the night, and the sea lightly slaps the rocky shore and makes a "crash" and "crash" sound.
But this kind of sound was only on the shore, and the night when I walked inside, it seemed more and more silent, and there were black mountains and trees everywhere, as if the whole island was asleep.
Only at this time there was a dim light on the mountainside of a mountain on that island, but the light was hidden by the dense trees on the mountainside.
The dim light was in a dilapidated room, and just under that light a young man was sitting on a broken stool.
He was napping against the wall, it was a wedding candy.
A woman on the bed opposite Xitang had closed her eyes. It was Lu Hongzhao.
Lu Hongzhao's skirt has been put down, whether her good slender jade leg or the red and swollen leg like a big pig's elbow are covered.
The lantern of the lamp has been knotted for a long time, so the lamp has become more and more dim.
Originally, Lu Hongzhao had discussed with Xitang to blow out the light, but Xitang thought about it but didn't move.
It's just because this Lu Hongzhao has a new understanding of Xitang. This guy, who usually looks carefree, now knows that lone men and widows need to avoid suspicion!
Forget it, she originally planned to save the lamp oil for the two monks, one old and one young.
The medicine on the legs still worked, Lu Hongzhao was also very tired, but the medicine gave her legs a tingling itch.
Although this kind of itching made Lu Hongzhao sleepless, she knew that the old monk's medicine was good after all, because her legs were almost unconscious in the past two days.
Only under the dual effects of drowsiness and numbness, she can only seem to sleep rather than sleep.
And just between half asleep and half awake, she was suddenly awakened by some sound.
The sound was very loud and weird, but she was so close to the room that she was shocked and sat up directly from the bed.
What kind of sound is that
There is no way to describe the scale in Chinese. It is a weird sound that is continuous like a whistle, but it is coming from the window.
"What to throw?" The voice screamed too loudly, and Xitang also woke up.
Xitang glanced at Lu Hongzhao, who had already sat up under the light, rushed out of the house with a knife.
It's just that the lamp is not on, and the outside of the house is naturally dark except for the starlight.
However, Xitang still heard the sound of flapping wings in the air.
"Zangmenxing! Frightened me!" Xitang murmured and turned back to the house.
"It's Ye Xiao?" Lu Hongzhao, who was sitting on the bed, asked at this time.
"Huh?" Xitang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't understand.
Seeing Xitang's confused expression, Lu Hongzhao explained hurriedly: "The bird that calls at night."
"Oh." Lu Hongzhao understood by saying that wedding candy, and he replied, "It's a night owl. This shivering person must have been a bird in his previous life. He recruits those birds during the day and night owls at night!
Lu Hongzhao looked at Xitang helplessly and said, "You don't need to accompany me to find a place to lie down and sleep."
Xitang looked at Lu Hongzhao's sleepy look, but asked, "What about taking medicine?"
"It's better, I know itchy." Lu Hongzhao replied.
"That's good." Xitang replied, but then she sat back on the broken stool and leaned against the wall.
"Turn off the lights and go to sleep. Didn't you say that Ying Ren might come to sneak attack at night?" Lu Hongzhao said again.
"When you are a Yingren, don't you know that we have someone here? They are not blind, so let's do it." Xitang said, and then closed his eyes again.
Lu Hongzhao could only look at Xitang, who had closed her eyes against the wall again, and after looking at it for a while, she finally lay down.
Lu Hongzhao is a little confused now, because she doesn't know how to get along with Xitang.
Xitang reads too little, and she reads too much.
Just like just now, she called the bird that made the weird and rapid call "owl", while Xitang called the bird "night owl".
Who knows how she will be like Xitang in the future? Lu Hongzhao no longer thinks about it, she will go to sleep again.
At this time, the bird called "owl" by learned people was flying in the sky.
Its eyes are naturally unique. It can catch mice at night, so how can its eyes look bad
It all fell on the window sill of that room just now.
But it instinctively felt that something was wrong and flew away again. It wanted to find what it was familiar with.
As a result, it flew and made a series of weird sounds like human whistles.
In the deep night, perhaps only a bird with its eyesight is free.
But at this moment, someone beside a rock at the bottom of the mountain was also talking about it. It was a Shang Zhen.
"The cry of the night owl here is different from that of my house." Shang Zhen said softly.
In the southeast coastal area, the Shangzheng earthquake has also been coming for a long time. He didn't know it when he heard this kind of bird call at night.
Shang Zhen naturally heard the calls of night owls in the Datingwei Mountain in the northwest, but he did not expect that the calls of night owls in the two places would be different.
The chickens in the northwest were called "quack" and "quack" when they finished their eggs, the duck called "quack", and the sheep called "baa".
The sounds of chickens, ducks and sheep along the southeast coast are the same.
But how can the night owl bark differently.
Shang Zhen listened to the call of the night owl in the sky, but the call got closer and closer, and the voice turned out to be in his own direction.
"Don't hit it, it's Xiao Huang!" At this moment, someone beside Shang Zhen said, but it was a shivering voice.
"What Xiaohuang?" Shang Zhen was surprised, he heard the voice of wings falling, and when the voice of the night owl came up again, the voice was already beside Shang Zhen!
Shang Zhen was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized, "Isn't this night owl also raised by you?"
"What kind of night owl, it's called Xiao Huang, I gave it the name, I fell out of the den last year, I fed it." He explained with a shiver in the darkness.
And just as he was trembling to speak, Shang Zhen listened to the night owl's cry that was already suppressed. Although the voice was weird, it sounded like a child's mumbling in his sleep.
Since Shivering said so, Shang Zhen could also imagine that the night owl must be falling on his shivering shoulder or enjoying his shivering hand stroking feathers in his arms.
Oops, this is fine, and Shang Zhen is happy.
He really didn't expect this shiver to be so terrible. Not only can people call the flock of birds like a phoenix during the day, but there will be night owls looking for him at night!
"Master and I are meditating and chanting every night, Xiao Huang will come to see me, today I came out with you, it may come out to find me without seeing me." Trembling said again.
I don't know how the old monk taught shivering. When shivering and speaking, it is full of Buddhism, as if not eating the fireworks in the world.
And only when he shivered and talked about the birds he raised, he looked like a mortal.
When you want to tremble and believe in Buddhism, no matter how pious you are, you will not be too much after all. People always have to show their true feelings instead of being full of Buddhism.
When Shang Zhen came down from that mountain, he naturally came to warn the people on the mountain.
This mountain was shivering and his master lived in the same place, but now it was for the wounded Lu Hongzhao, so the two monks, big and small, could only come out to find accommodation on the mountain.
Fortunately, it’s summer, so as long as it doesn’t rain, it’s the same wherever you stay.
So Shang Zhen made an appointment and shivered down to the mountain.
Shang Zhen wouldn't expect what Shake could do. Of course, his intention was because Shake was familiar with the terrain here. If Yingren really came, it would always be helpful to him.
It's just that the two of them are not talkative people. After they found a place with a flat stone under this mountain, the two of them talked for a while and then they sat up cross-legged to meditate!
Originally, when Shang Zhen thought that the night would have passed, he didn't expect that their peace would be broken by such a night owl named "Xiao Huang".
"Little Huang, go play by yourself and tell you not to come to me. You always come to me. Master should teach me again if he sees it." At this time, Shang Zhen tremblingly said again.
Then he shivered and said "Go" again, and Shang Zhen heard the sound of fluttering wings in the night.
It seemed that this was shivering and threw the night owl into the air.
Sure enough, after a while, the cry of that night owl was already far away.
"Why do you call him Xiaohuang?" Shang Zhen asked curiously.
"Because Xiao Huang's eyes are yellow, the kind of Jiao Huang Jiao Huang." Answered tremblingly.
Shang Zhenyi talked to him about the birds he raised, and there were more shivering words, and then it became long-winded again.
As for the shivering Xiao Huang's eyes are delicate yellow, Shang Zhen knew that the night owl's eyes were yellow.
"Then why did your master train you because of you raising birds?" Shang Zhen asked again.
"Because Xiao Huang caught the mouse and ate it, I saved it, and it knew how to repay him, but it didn't understand anything else, so he always caught the mouse back. Alas, it would be fine if it also ate grass seeds." Said.
When he heard this shivering, Shang Zhen couldn't help but laugh.
Think about it, too, this night owl does not have any other eyes, then he will definitely think that the mice in the mountains are the best delicacy.
Then, if Xiaowan caught the mouse, wouldn't he send it back with trembling
But how could it understand that it turns out that the trembling master and apprentice are vegetarians!
Think about it, too, a monk who is vegetarian, the old and the young will face a night owl every day to pick up a mouse or a rabbit for them. It's very happy to think about it!
"Who told you to save it?" Shang Zhen smiled, but then he said, "Actually, I also raised a small milk cat!"
When Shang Zhen shivered when he saw a night owl as his playmate, he also thought of the little milk cat.
After walking for so long, I don't know what the little milk cat has mixed up, and whether it will harm all the livestock and poultry in the village.
"Knowing kittens? Kittens eat birds, right?" trembling strangely.
"Yeah." Shang Zhen agreed. In fact, he is similar to Shaking in that he likes to raise things.
But before Shang Zhen said that his little milk cat was actually a lynx and was better than the jackal, he gave a "Huh".
Because he heard the cry of a night owl in the air.
The night owl's call here is already very rapid, but this time the call is even more rapid. The sound is as if someone is whistling continuously!
It was only a moment before Shang Zhen heard the sound of wings breaking through the air coming from his side.

"Xiao Huang, what's the matter? What are you doing if you don't go out to play by yourself and fly back?" At this moment, he shuddered.
Sure enough, the night owl flew back again.
And that Xiao Huang was still screaming, and after a while, he trembled and said confidently: "There is something wrong with Xiao Huang today!"
