Healing Hotel

In the daytime, the knot of the villain in the month is no longer visible.

But Lao Zhai said that the knot did not disappear, it was only invisible because of the strong light during the day.Moreover, tonight is still the night of the full moon, and the villain will appear when the moon is full.

Yu Qing said: "I saw many knots on your body."

The old house smiled: "Yes, I have received many thoughts from my family members. In fact, the tree house family seldom pass on their thoughts through the little man of the moon, because we have a well-developed root system and a well, even if we are thousands of miles apart. , and can be contacted at any time. I am probably the first tree house to keep the little man so busy."

In the evening, the villains really appeared again.

They spent the whole night yesterday and finally tied all the nostalgic knots of the old house, and now they finally relax, sitting on the tiles and watching the moon one by one.

The sparrow didn't go back to its nest either, but squatted on the roof looking at the night sky, and a mischievous villain sat on the sparrow's back and tied knots on its feathers.

When the eyelids couldn't hold it anymore, the little bird returned to the nest, and the half of the glowing rope was outside.Only then did Yu Qing discover that their nests were in the cracks in the wall outside the firewood house.It was built of mud bricks, and over time, some of the mud bricks loosened, and the gaps became larger, and the sparrows got in to make their nests.

Yu Qing guessed so.However, Hu Er’s version is like this——

"That's your grandpa's trick. A brick was deliberately drawn! If the sand is small, the gap will be vacated, and the birds will get in to make a nest. Huh, that old man is broken!"

"However, I haven't seen him dig out a bird's nest." Lao Zhai said.

Yu Qing didn't know whether it was true or not.But when he touched the knot in his hand, he suddenly had a feeling.

In the beginning, grandpa may have caught sparrows for his grandson to play with in the future.But later, after the little sparrow was born, it gradually became a nurturing one.

"I'm a little older today."

"The feathers are all coming out, the little bird grows much faster than the cub."

"Hey, don't eat the bugs I catch, you little stubborn bird!"

In Yu Qing's mind, the image of the old man tiptoeing to the bird's nest and removing stones to peek...

Although these few sparrows are probably not the same nest as before.Yu Qing still didn't want to disturb them.

The sparrow gradually became more courageous, and dared to stroll under the camphor tree, and played with the fox from time to time.

Cui Xiu lived there for three days. Although she was alone during the reunion festival, she was unexpectedly not alone, and on the contrary, she felt a little overjoyed.

"Are you leaving?" Hu Er said with some reluctance.

"Well, I should go home." Cui Xiu said.

Before Yu Qing could make a move this time, Zhang Shu gave her a red rope and said, "Souvenir."

This is a real souvenir.Because Zhang Shu didn't eat anything in the past two nights, everyone had a barbecue to watch the moon, and he was weaving rope.

At first it was woven with blades of grass, but no one noticed when it was woven with red rope.

"Ah, it's so beautiful! Thank you, your hands are so skillful." Cui Xiu said happily, and took it and wrapped it around her hand a few times and tied it in a knot.

"Is it alright if you go back alone?" Hu Er said.

"It doesn't matter." Cui Xiu said with a smile.She had a dream last night, dreaming that there was a villain collecting moonlight.The moonlight was kneaded into a long thread by them and wrapped around her hand.The other end of the line seems to be pointing to something.She walked and walked, and came to a small wooden house. The door opened, and there were surprised parents.

From then on, in her dreams every day, as long as she followed the line of the moonlight, she could always find the cabin.The cabin hidden in her heart.

Yu Qing sent her out and took Chen Jin back by the way.

The kid came back two days after he got home, saying that he was worried about Cheng Jing, but when he came back, he found that Cheng Jing was concentrating on painting sparrows.Because he ran over suddenly, all the sparrows flew away.Cheng Jing was so angry that he simply drew him as a cat with a big face.

Chen Jin was honest.

It's just that when he went out to take out the garbage, he scared a group of children at the door.

"Wow! The cat head!"

Chen Jin made a funny face to tease the children.

Yu Qing wondered, "What are they doing at the door?"

"I'm curious, I think they are betting who will dare to come in, saying that your place is haunted, I guess they want to play a big adventure." Chen Jin said.

"By the way, I just saw them scaring a little one."

Before Cheng Jing's anger disappeared, he didn't dare to wash off the painting on his face, so he frightened them by the way.

Yu Qing couldn't control it either.The children in this mountain are very wild, and it is inevitable that there will be fights.

However, in the evening, the three-headed dog barked loudly.

When he passed by, he found a child at the door.

"Can I come in and stay for a while?" the child stammered.

Yu Qing was still wondering which family's child it was, so he took the initiative to promise: "I, I, I will not mess with things."

Yu Qing agreed.

The child is quite obedient. He wears big slippers that don't fit his feet. There are mud spots on his clothes and trousers, as well as his bare legs with his trousers rolled up. He is dirty. He just sits there without moving. .

There were all kinds of fruit snacks on the table. He stared at them for a long time, swallowed, and didn't move.Even if Yu Qing handed it over, she didn't dare to accept it.

Yu Qing then asked: "Are you guys playing some kind of game?"

The child froze for a moment: "No, no."

He bowed his head and said, "Can I stay with you overnight? I lost my cattle, and I will be beaten when I go back."

Yu Qing: "..."

It's not a question of being beaten or not.Cattle are an important asset of the farm family, and losing them is a big deal.

"Where did you lose it? I'll help you find it."

He called Aunt Liu over and realized that this was Li Xiaogao, the grandson of the Li family's uncle and his second uncle's family.With the same surname Li, Li Xiaogao's family is much poorer.He was only in elementary school, and the family wanted him to drop out of school several times and go home to help. Thanks to the new village officials watching over the past two years, they didn't dare not let him go to school.

However, I have to work after school and holidays on weekdays.

Li Xiaogao went to the river beach to pick up his family's cow today, but the cow disappeared.The grassland by the river beach is a common place for grazing in the village. Sometimes the villagers are busy with other things, so they take the cattle there, tie down the cattle rope, let the cattle graze by themselves, and come back to take them away after they are done.

The folks in the village can recognize everyone's cattle clearly, even if no one is watching, no one will deliberately lead them.There are only a few roads at the foot of the mountain, and the big cow can't hide it, and if it is stolen on the road, it will definitely be seen by others.Who dares?

Yu Qing asked, "Did you not find the cow there, or did you lose it on the way?"

Li Xiaogao hesitated to explain clearly.

When it was getting dark, people from the Li family also came.They just didn't dare to enter the door, they were right at the door... and they didn't dare to call out. They just asked Aunt Liu to send a message, hoping that the Yu family would return the child, so that they could teach him a lesson.

Yu Qing said: "If you beat him, can you get him back?"

He knew that rural children were tough and it was common for them to be beaten, but there was no right or wrong in beating someone.

He has already asked Hu Er to help find the cattle.Foxes have a good sense of smell and are much more reliable in finding things than humans.

The Li family didn't dare to say anything, and they all murmured: "Let's go, let's go, let's look for it again, anyway, when can't the child be beaten?"

Yu Qing: "..." Even if he helps find the cow, Li Xiaogao will still have to be beaten when he goes back.

But the villagers can't justify this, and they can't prevent it.Can't he just stare at people forever and stop beating their children?

He asked Zhang Shu to watch the child, and went out to look for it himself.Although he is not very familiar with the village, he can ask A Piao.Although nonsense is unreliable, but with 586, I believe that no A Piao would dare to lie to him.

As soon as he went out, Li Xiaogao moved and ran to the gate of the courtyard to look around.

Zhang Shu saw that he didn't go far, so he didn't care.

After a while, a group of children came to the door.

"Wang Datou, where is my cow? Where did you go! It is agreed that if I dare to enter this yard, I will get the cow back for me?" Li Xiaogao said anxiously.

"What kind of cow, we didn't see anything, it was you who didn't watch the cow and let the cow run away. You are so stupid, you can't even watch a cow." The older child laughed.

"I, I didn't! You deliberately pushed it away and stopped me from chasing it!"

"Hmph, who stopped you, did anyone see it?"

"no!"

"I didn't see either..."

Li Xiaogao was very sad.This Wang Datou always likes to bully him and make fun of him because his family has some money.Although he has never done it himself, he knows that teasing others will always make him look ugly, either deliberately letting dogs chase him, or making trouble when he is working, causing him to be beaten by adults.The same is true for the lost cow today. When he went to chase it, the cow had already disappeared and could not be found anywhere.

He returned to the small yard, feeling restless.But he couldn't do anything, as soon as he went out, he would definitely be picked up and beaten by his family.His father's temper was very violent, and it was useless to say anything, he beat him first.

He could only follow Zhang Shu and help diligently.The yard was clean and there were flowers planted. The house looked like an antique. He had only seen it on TV, and he didn't dare to touch it, for fear that it would be damaged by accident.

With nothing to do, he just sat in the yard and waited for Yu Qing to come back.I became sleepy while sitting, and fell asleep unconsciously.Woke up to find myself in the room, scared to death.

He must have stained the bed!

But he jumped up and found that it was not dirty.I don't know who changed him into clean clothes, and his body was also clean.

When he went downstairs, Yu Qing said, "Are you awake? Come over for dinner."

Li Xiaogao hurriedly asked: "Have you found my cow?"

Yu Qing nodded: "I found it."

The cow was frightened and ran up the mountain, but fortunately he didn't go deep into the mountain, so Hu Er led him back.

He pulls up the chair. "Sit down, let's talk about another problem. Why did you play truant yesterday?"

Li Xiaogao: "!!"

"How do you know?" He widened his eyes.

Yu Qing, of course, listened to what A Piao and the others said.

"Don't you like going to school?" he asked.

The Li family didn't want him to study in the first place, and this kid still played truant.

"I like it..." he whispered, "but I don't want to enter junior high school. I'm afraid of being bullied..."

Yu Qing was stunned.

Only then did he realize that education in the countryside is not as simple as a lack of teachers.There are always a few scoundrels in this village and that village blocking the students outside, and there are even some gangsters in the school... Li Xiaogao is super honest, cowardly, never dares to fight, especially afraid of these.

"It won't happen in the future." Yu Qing said.

He intends to find a place to talk to, but [-]% of the talks will not work out.After all, he doesn't have any children who go to school here.

But it doesn't matter, he asked 586, he still has enough Apiao to use.

Sometimes, Ah Piao is much easier to use than humans.

As for Li Xiaogao... he still went home.

The Li family did not keep their promises and beat him up.But Ah Piao, who witnessed it, said that for some reason, Li Xiaogao didn't cry, as if he didn't feel any pain at all.

Yu Qing thought to herself that it seemed that the Li family didn't have the heart to beat them hard, otherwise how could it not hurt?

The small yard was quiet again. Yu Qing watered the flowers, planted vegetables and fed the cows every day. Recently, there was an extra activity, peeking at the sparrow nest.

The sparrow laid eggs!

Small six eggs with speckled shells.Yu Qing saw the sparrow running out, flew away, and sneaked over to see it.

But then, presumably the big birds started hatching, and he stopped peeking.

Because the fox said that the sparrows in the breeding season are very protective of their cubs and very vigilant, so it is best not to approach them.

Yu Qing could only wait patiently for the little sparrow to come out.

Lao Zhai teased him quietly and said, "If Xiaoyu likes eggs, I can secretly show them to you."

Yu Qing: "??" Where did the old house come from?

He didn't go there for a long time, only to find that the small garden of the old house had changed again. The small trees began to grow tall, and there was a bird's nest on one of the trees.

There is a white and fat egg in the nest, the size of an egg, but not like an egg.Because it is equally round at both ends, there are streaks of light flashing on the surface.

"This is a little man's stone, found in the little guy's room." The old man said, "Be careful, it's very fragile. In our world, this is a... well, a very special stone egg. It's emotions The villain has changed."

No wonder the more Yu Qing looked at it, the more he felt that it was alive.It is said that all the emotional objects produced by the old house are alive!

He asked, "Can I touch it?"

"Okay, but you have to touch it lightly, as light as a feather~" Lao Zhai said cautiously.

Yu Qing: "..."

He really couldn't grasp how light it was!

But he thought of a way, went to the yard to pick up a piece of duck feather, fluff, it's light enough.he thought.

The soft feathers brushed by, and the little human stone seemed to be awakened by being scratched, and the light spread.

Yu Qing saw it, and the light and shadow emerged inside, there really was a human figure!Small, riding on the back of a bull, leisurely through the woods.

It's just that when he observed it later, he found that the figures inside were sometimes in the classroom, and sometimes in the field, and the scenery was a little familiar...

He sees it!

"Could this be Li Xiaogao??"

"You guessed it right." The old man said with a smile. "However, this is just his incarnation."

"In our world, the little man's stone is a kind of guardian stone. Those who are hurt and expect to be protected will be re-engraved by it to protect them." It added a few branches to the soft nest.

"I was afraid that he would break the little man's stone, so I didn't send it out. Because the shell of the little man's stone is usually very fragile. However, if it senses danger, it will become extremely hard. The protected person will not will suffer any harm.

"The child is too young, and I'm afraid he won't be able to guard his own rock. In our world, only children's rocks are guarded by the tree house. Adults guard the rocks by themselves, because everyone While being protected, one must also learn to protect others.”

Yu Qing couldn't help asking: "What if the villain is broken?"

"The protective function disappeared. But at that time, people were already independent, so they didn't need to worry too much. That's why we let adults guard the stone by themselves." Lao Zhai said.

Yu Qing kept staring at the stone egg. With the protection of the shell, the villain looked very comfortable inside.

The old house kept protecting the nest, and was so careful that no fallen leaves from the sky were allowed to fall into it.The sparrow hasn't come out much recently, and has been lying in the nest, guarding its baby eggs.

As for Li Xiaogao, his ambition has grown, and he no longer shrinks back in the village, not only is he not afraid of Wang Datou, he is not even afraid of the village head's geese.He went to middle school safely, was admitted to a better school, and went to a farther place.

But the little person stone was lying still, and one day it suddenly disappeared.Yu Qing found the figure of the villain passing by in the grass leaves in the garden.
