Chapter 180
Chapter 180
The three bald men disappeared.
On September 19th, when the child arrived at Zhang's house, she didn't see the dog baring its teeth at her, so she felt puzzled. She asked Mu Tou and learned that the dog had disappeared at noon yesterday and had not returned all night.
No wonder the midnight snack was so delicious last night, I didn’t see it joining in the fun.
Child: "Then let's go find it. Where does it usually go?"
Before Mu Tou could answer, Zhang Fengci came out of the house and said, "What are you looking for? You have nothing to do. I couldn't even send the dog away, so now it's just right that it ran away. You still want to find it? You really don't want to get me well. Go away and do what you need to do."
When he came, Mu Tou just smiled and went back to work.
The child followed Zhang Fengci toward the vegetable garden and said, "It could have run away on its own, but what if someone caught it?"
"No big deal. That unfortunate thing bites everyone it sees. It deserves to be caught and stewed. Stop dwelling on it and go back to your work. The dog is a nuisance if I keep it. I was just worried about where to put it, so getting rid of it is just the right thing to do."
He said again that it was just right that he lost it.
The child didn't really like San Tu either, but after knowing him for so long, he inevitably had some feelings for him. Hearing this, he said with a bit of sadness, "He's much better behaved than before."
"What are you saying? It's always showing its teeth. A few days ago, Mu Tou went out to buy groceries and saw it chasing someone and barking. If he hadn't stopped it in time, he would have had to pay compensation."
Zhang Fengci felt sad when he thought about this, because he was the one who paid for the medicine for the three people's injuries.
The child sighed and found it difficult to say anything good about it.
It was originally tied with a chain, but it would bark incessantly when it saw no one. The neighbors nearby were dissatisfied, so Zhang Fengci had no choice but to let it go. Even when it was confined at home, it would not behave itself and would try to escape by digging a hole in the door.
It's such a bastard, it's understandable that it would get lost.
Zhang Fengci told her not to worry about it.
"Most likely beaten to death. If you like Liu Dianyi's dog, he has one at home. It's smart and well-behaved. I'll take you to see it later. When it has puppies, I'll bring you one."
The child pouted and said, "I don't want a dog. I already have a pumpkin."
"It's up to you. I won't ask anyone to look for it anyway. If you want to find it, go find it yourself."
Zhang Fengci opened a book of strange stories and legends and began to read it with great interest.
The child stood there and thought for a long time, but finally didn't go.
She was just a little sad, but it didn't seem that serious to go look for her.
Zhang Fengci glanced at her and said nothing more.
The two of them ate breakfast in silence.
During the trip, the child remembered the pumpkin and ran to the next door to tell Lian Li not to let the pumpkin out and to come back and take it home in the evening.
Lian Li held the cat and asked her with a frown, "Why? Are you trying to sow discord between us?"
It would be easy for him to lock up the cat, but what if the cat holds a grudge against him?
Child: Yeah! I never thought I could sow discord between them.
The child thought of Pumpkin raising its paw to hit Lianli and found it funny, but she didn't feel like laughing: "No, Sandu is missing. Maybe he was beaten to death and stewed. I'm afraid Pumpkin is missing too. He's so fat, and many people must miss him."
The child touched the pumpkin's thick thigh with a worried look on his face, and was given a cold look by the pumpkin.
Lian Li: "Okay, but you don't plan to keep it closed forever, do you?"
The child thought for a moment and said, "I'll take it out for a walk."
The bald man is lost, and his collar can be modified to be used by Pumpkin.
Lian Li:……
"Is it possible that it would rather run around until it gets eaten?"
Who wants to die?
The child opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but after thinking for a moment, he hesitated:
"I'm not a cat, I don't know."
She reached out and took Pumpkin and held him for a while. Pumpkin then climbed onto her shoulder dishonestly, kicked off its hind legs, landed lightly on the ground, stretched itself, held up its tail, and walked away twisting and turning, shaking its plump buttocks.
Lian Li patted her shoulder and reminded her: "If you don't catch it, it will run away."
Little Child: "That's right, why aren't you moving?"
Lian Li's casual question made the child unable to move his legs.
In the end, she didn't catch the pumpkin. Instead, she ran back, ate her meal in a hurry, and asked Zhang Fengci to help her take a day off.
Then he ran to find Sandu.
It’s not that she cares about the three bald creatures, she just feels a little regretful because she doesn’t know where they went.
Even if it was eaten by someone, she wanted to know where it went, just like the little things she had owned before. No matter what, she wanted to follow her heart and do her best.
Follow your own heart and also follow their heart.
At that time, Pei Zhu always felt that children were better to these little things than to people.
That's not wrong.
The child just likes these little things more than many people, and she herself can't explain why.
Maybe it's because I feel a little pity for their fate of being at the mercy of others and having no control over their own destiny?
Maybe it's because I like them, and they are very friendly to people when they are nice to them, but they are mean to them when they are mean to them?
Or maybe, when she was a child, she raised chickens in a temple on the mountain, and she felt that those chickens were just like humans, feeling sad, happy, and angry?
Or maybe she was just too lonely. Her first friends were a ghost and a group of chickens, and then cats, pigs, chickens, ducks and geese. So she got confused and thought that making friends with them would be simpler and easier?
You see, as long as you feed them, they will always follow you, as if they will never be separated from you.
Let you touch it, stick close to you, as if it trusts you wholeheartedly and always wants to play with you.
They are not as smart as humans, but they are much simpler than humans.
The child could not give them anything, nor did she make their lives very good, and she had no power to control their life or death, but every time they saw her, they would come to her happily.
So it was hard for her not to do something.
Of course, these have nothing to do with San Tu. This dog is very evil. When he sees her, he will just pounce on her with his teeth bared.
But if it's dead, the child still wants to know.
One is to wonder why it died and whether the pumpkin will die like it.
the other is……
The child thinks...she is actually the same as San Tu, always showing her teeth at people. If she gets lost one day, will everyone also think that it is just right that she is lost?
If she died quietly, would anyone know?
Or should everyone just go about their own business, and if they want, find a smarter and more well-behaved child?
The chaotic thoughts made the child even more confused.
The best outcome is actually that the three-bald cat did not die, but just lost its way and did not bite anyone. It just sat somewhere barking at passers-by, waiting for someone to find it.
It was annoying and a jerk, but no one was hurt and it was alive and well.
That’s what the kids are looking forward to.
But...it lived much better than the child imagined.
