Chapter 12

"Si Geng, when did your brother come? We've never met before. He's so kind to you." Xiaohu said enviously.

Ding Ye shook his head and smiled, and said casually, "He's my brother. He's been here for more than half a month, but we haven't had much contact with him before. The roads in our village are not easy to travel. Grandpa doesn't want him to work hard."

"Si Geng, what does your brother do? It looks amazing."

This Ding Ye didn’t know anymore. Although he stayed with Brother Xun all day long, he never asked about it, and Brother Xun didn’t mention it. Ding Ye waved his hand, “He is just a small employee, and his salary is too low. It’s not high, it’s just enough for him to live.” Ding Ye narrowed his eyes, finding his brother is not easy and he doesn’t need to tell outsiders, besides, there are many people in this village coveting to find his brother, especially Li Cuihua!snort!

Ding Ye didn't want to tell them this anymore, so he turned his head, "Xiaohu, have you guys come out to play and finished your homework?"

A group of people suddenly had a bitter face, "Oh, what about homework, let's go dig out quail eggs, there are so many at the fourth watch, we didn't know before."

"Yes, yes, those places are particularly hidden, and these quails are quite smart."

"Hey, when the time comes, we'll bake it, cook it..."

A group of children began to imagine that ordinary people's eggs are quite precious, and it is rare to see them as good as Ding Ye's every day. Ding Ye just smiled and didn't speak when he saw them. These little friends were very kind to him, and he liked them very much. .

A group of children walked quickly, as if they were afraid that someone would snatch their good things. An old man wandering around in the village saw it and occasionally sighed, "Hey, look at the children raised by this old forest. They are not the same."

Ding Ye is indeed different from them, Xiaohu and those little guys are mischievous, their clothes are dirty and painted with black ink, Ding Ye is also skinny, but he is clean, his white and tender face is in stark contrast to them, and that The little child has a magnanimity all over his body outside, laughs first when he sees people, with an indescribable feeling, let the people outside say yes, and has a little elegance in every gesture, after all, this is what the old man taught him child.

A group of people went deeper and deeper into the mountain, Ding Ye frowned, "How do you guys know about this place, Xiaohu?"

"Hey, I heard what people in the village said." Xiaohu rolled his eyes, and he was right.

"Who is it, Xiaohu? We don't even know." A child asked impatiently, who would share such a place with them.

Xiaohu was in a dilemma. It was agreed that he would not let it be revealed, otherwise he would not let them know if there were good places in the future, and he would not be given candy.

Seeing Xiaohu frowning tightly, Ding Ye smiled and said, "It doesn't matter how many, let's hurry up, it will be bad if the quail comes back later." No matter who catches a quail, it can't do anything to them, right? , just be careful.

Ding Ye is the king of children, and his ability to climb trees is so good. There are only five children in total. There are more than a dozen nests here, big and small. He and Xiaohu moved quickly. They picked up three or four nests by themselves, and the quail eggs were still warm. Yes, Ding Ye waved his hands and whispered, "Let's go quickly, don't let the old quail get caught." The old quail in the forest is not usually fierce, it hurts when it pecks on people.

The little guys nodded excitedly. Everyone had a lot in their arms. There were more than a dozen in a litter. After walking for a while, they immediately talked about it like a frying pan. Thank you Xiaohu for bringing them here. Xiaohu was flattered by them Yes, Ding Ye also smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Xiaohu, thank you, come to my house for dinner tonight."

Xiaohu waved his hands a little shyly, "Si Geng, you're happy, as long as you're happy, I still won't go, hehe."

Xiaohu likes to play with Ding Ye, but it is a pity that Ding Ye does not go to school, so the time he spends with Ding Ye is much less. Ding Ye was white, tender and cute when he was a child, Xiaohu is one year older than him, and he likes him It's incredible.If there is something delicious and fun, I want to give it to him. He is also Ding Yewan's best friend. It is common to go to Ding Ye's house to grab a meal, but this time, the one at Si Geng's house looks very cold when he thinks about it. My brother still forget it.

Ding Ye didn't force it, he could send something to Xiaohu's family to thank him at night, brother Xun didn't like having outsiders at home either.

"Ah! I remember now!" Xiaohu screamed.

"What's wrong?" Ding Ye carefully packed the quail eggs in a cloth bag.

"Fourth watch, last time I saw a lot of cicada shells under the big locust tree in front of me, didn't your grandpa want to use it?"

"Really? Then thank you, Xiaohu. It just so happens that the bag is big enough, so I'll pick up some and go home." Ding Ye was a little surprised, more is better than less.

Xiaohu nodded, "We will help you at the fourth watch."

"Well then, just like before, after you pick it up, sell it to my family, okay? I can't let you spend your energy in vain." Ding Ye said without thinking, so as not to let the villagers gossip.

Naturally, the children were not unhappy. Xiaohu nodded, and Ding Ye waved his hand, "It's about to leave the mountain, Xiaohu, tell me about the place. After you pick it up, there will be no home for you. Don't wait, it's the same as before."

This is their habit. After all, the mountain is so big that waiting takes time.

Xiaohu pointed to several places. There were two children together, and Ding Ye separated from them. It was the same as before, except that he had only been near the big locust tree once, and he never went there again when he saw nothing. The next time he found that there were quite a lot of tree roots, he was a little surprised, squatted on the ground and picked them up, just like a friend deliberately spilled them here, Ding Ye was a little puzzled, but no one would do that.

This big locust tree has been around for decades, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. Fragments of sunlight shone through the dense branches and leaves, and a little bit of light hit Ding Ye's face, making his face even more jade-like. There are occasional birds in the silent mountain forest He was used to being in the mountains, he didn't feel anything at ordinary times, but now he didn't know what was wrong, he felt uncomfortable, thinking about brother Xun's explanation, he should go back after he was out for a long time, otherwise brother Xun would have to worry of.

Ding Ye stood up and stretched, rubbing his sore shoulders, "Kach, click" the crackling sound of dry leaves sounded, Ding Ye was familiar with this sound, who would come at this time, Ding Ye turned his head in doubt but Startled, Zheng Wu just stood quietly behind him, staring at him with cloudy and cold eyes, Ding Ye swallowed, turned around and leaned against the big locust tree, he felt something was wrong and tried to calm down , "Uncle Zheng Wu, what can you do?" He backed away without a trace.

Zheng Wu grinned, his mouth full of yellow teeth, he got closer to Ding Ye, and Ding Ye could smell a stench mixed with a bad smell, he suppressed the nausea in his heart, when someone grabbed his shoulder suddenly, he raised his head and listened A hoarse voice sounded, "Si Geng, you come home with me, I will make your life better, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, come with me."

There was a hint of pleading in his eyes, but more of madness. Ding Ye couldn't help being afraid in his heart. He was a child after all, a child who was just ten years old. No matter how much he learned, in this small mountain village, he was taken away. The old man protected him very well. No matter how daring he was, he would still be afraid to face such a situation and such a lunatic. Ding Ye grabbed the locust tree bark with both hands, "Uncle Zheng, what nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up!" Let me go, grandpa is waiting for me to go home for dinner, you are hungry too, just eat with me."

Ding Ye tried to calm himself down, he couldn't panic, Xiaohu and the others should have left, and he was the only one left in the mountains without any accidents, so he couldn't panic.

Zheng Wu smiled, "Xiao Sigeng, uncle will take you to dinner. I have cooked it. There are chicken, duck, fish, and wine. You are satisfied with the safekeeping. Uncle's home is your home. Go with uncle, follow uncle Walk!"

Zheng Wu's hand on Ding Ye's shoulder was strong, and he didn't wait for Ding Ye's answer. He dragged Ding Ye down a small path and walked down the mountain. Ding Ye tightly held the cloth bag on his body. It was too big, and the speed was still very fast, Ding Ye couldn't help but started to shout, "Let me go, let me go, I want to go home, brother Xun and grandpa are waiting for me, Uncle Zheng Wu, don't do this! "

"Shut up! If you tell me to follow me, leave, and if you shout again, I'll beat you up!" Zheng Wu turned his head viciously, and slapped Ding Ye on the back.

The force was too strong, Ding Ye's eyes filled with tears instantly, he gritted his teeth tightly, Zheng Wu suddenly panicked, "Don't blame Uncle at the fourth watch, Uncle shouldn't hit you, but Uncle treats you so well and you shout at others How to recruit?"

He was hugged in the arms of a stinking man, Ding Ye could even see the lice wandering in his hair, his heart was filled with disgust and fear, he didn't know what Zheng Wu was going to do?Why did he grab himself? Ding Yemeng scratched at Zheng Wu's back and shouted, "Help! Help! Find brother, save me! Find brother! Grandpa! Find brother..."

The clear and hoarse shout scared countless birds away, but Tan Xiuxun, who was tasting the soup at home, felt his heart skip a beat, the spoon fell out of his hand, and the clear and crisp sound was extremely ear-piercing.

Ding Ye felt that if he didn't make a sound, he might not be able to make a sound. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes. He missed Brother Xun's embrace so much. He kept shouting. Zheng Wu became a little annoyed and covered his mouth tightly, " Brats are not allowed to speak, don't be ignorant of flattery."

Ding Ye rubbed desperately, he wanted to win a glimmer of hope for himself, even if this hope was too slim, he kicked hard with both hands and feet, and Zheng Wu was in pain when he kicked, it was too close to the mountain pass, Zheng Wu gritted his teeth, his eyes became ruthless, and he punched Ding Ye's neck hard. Ding Ye fainted immediately after a dozen shots.

Zheng Wu turned his head to look around, grinned, put Ding Ye on his back and left quickly, with eagerness in his eyes, when his work was done, it would be too late even if someone found it, hehe.
