Papa Fox's Trouble

After Father Fox came back, the life of the Fox family returned to a normal track.

"Sloppy!" Papa Fox roared angrily, with veins popping up on his forehead.

At this time, it was another early morning, as usual, father fox took three baby foxes to the vegetable garden to pour vegetables.

The careless baby who was named by Father Fox looked up blankly, and looked at Father Fox suspiciously. One short leg was still raised, and the little gun was facing the root of the tree, swaying, and was enjoying the water.

"You can't defecate anywhere!" The stone baby next to him had a serious face, raised his little hand, and patted his head hastily.He remembered everything his father said, and he did it earnestly. Shitou is a good and obedient boy.

Father Fox walked over a few steps, squeezed Cao Cao's two little hands that were originally on the ground, and asked him to stand up, "Didn't Dad say that you can't walk with your hands, your feet are enough for walking."

"But Dad..." He staggered two steps and was led by Father Fox, and muttered, "You will fall when you walk, and you can't run fast..."

"Yeah," Xiaoyu nodded in agreement, took two steps with his short legs, threw himself on Father Fox's leg, hugged him, and said coquettishly, "Daddy, let's walk on four legs." !"

Father Fox picked him up, rubbed his nose against his little face, and said jokingly: "There are not only two legs, but there are only two legs, and the other two are hands."

Baby Fish looked at Father Fox in a daze, he didn't understand the difference between legs and hands at all.Isn't it all for running?Oh, by the way, the front legs can also be used to hold eggs!

Father Fox is helpless.I don't know if it's because the babies' bones are still soft or their brains are still developing and their balance is not good. Since babies learned to crawl, they are used to landing on all fours, as if they were instinctive, and they don't need much practice.On the contrary, when walking in a human way, each one is staggering, just like a human child learning to walk.

Father Fox once thought about the Tao, but he didn't read many books, and he couldn't think of such a deep place. He thought it might be because the genes of foxes and humans are different in the babies' three-year-old stage, and the developmental development of babies is different. The level is also different - a three-year-old fox can already run all over the mountain, and a three-year-old human child can't walk steadily, so the three fox babies who are three years old and belong to the active period prefer the form of a fox.

Father Fox has no effective way to correct the habits of the fox babies. He can only try to let the babies learn human habits in their daily life from an early age. Thinking that when they reach a certain age, the babies will naturally behave like normal humans. .

But what Father Fox didn't expect was that before he was mentally prepared, the crisis was quietly approaching.

This afternoon, after a nap, Father Fox was teaching the three baby foxes how to read. He read it once, and the three baby foxes followed suit.

Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound outside the house.The sound seemed to come from far away.The ears of the three baby foxes immediately stood up.

Father Fox was also surprised, and a little uneasy arose in his heart. He let the three baby foxes stay in the house and couldn't go out, so he stood up and went to the mountain outside to see what happened.

Looking at the opposite mountain peak, I saw a few figures looming in the dense forest, and the buzzing sound of the machine came from there.

Mr. Fox knew what it was. It was the sound of a chainsaw chopping wood.He couldn't help but start to worry, would those lumberjacks come here during logging?After cutting down the trees on the opposite mountain, will you come here to cut down?If all the trees on the mountain were cut down, would the stones be found without the shelter of the trees?

The father fox was in a heavy heart, and walked back full of worries, but three baby foxes came running in front of him. The father fox was startled, he squatted down and hugged the baby foxes who rushed over, looked around in surprise, and finally Lowering his head, he scolded: "Stone, Xiaoyu, Caocao, didn't Dad tell you to stay in the house?"

Xiaoyu was excited: "Dad, what's that sound?"

Stone and Caocao also looked curious and excited.

Although the three fox cubs usually heard from their father fox that they would be captured if humans saw their ears and tails, in fact, since they were born, the creatures they have seen, apart from wild animals in the mountains, are There is only Father Fox. Human beings and human society other than Father Fox have never been in contact.The mountains and forests are quiet, inaccessible, and there are no large carnivores. The fox father is always by his side, protecting and pampering them. The fox babies have almost no sense of crisis.

It is rare that there is something new in the mountains. Not only are the three baby foxes not afraid, but they are very excited and curious, and can't wait to see it.

Faced with three innocent and curious fox cubs who don't know the danger at all, Father Fox has a lot of headaches.Instead of answering the baby fox's question, he picked up the three baby foxes and brought them back to the house.

After closing the door, the fox father sat down in a row facing the door seriously, looked up at his three fox cubs with puzzled faces and said, "Listen, babies, a lumberjack is coming from the opposite side of the mountain. In order to prevent them from discovering the existence of the babies, from now on, the babies cannot be seen by them."

"Why?" asked hastily.

"Because if they see the babies, they'll see the ears and the tails of the babies, and then they'll take the babies away, and the babies won't be able to live with their dad."

"Ah, those people are bad guys, daddy said they want to catch Shitou, Xiaoyu and hasty bad guys!" Shitou exclaimed, remembering what his dad had said.

"That's right!" Father Fox nodded in relief - the baby still remembers what he said!

"The little fish won't let them see it!" The little fish snorted angrily, oh, those bad guys!

From that day on, the father and son began to pay close attention to the movement of the opposite mountain.No, just after Father Fox finished pouring the vegetables, he saw three little heads popping out of the grass by the woods.At some point, the three baby foxes who had been hiding in the woods under his instructions sneaked out their little heads from the grass beside the woods, and looked nervously and curiously at the busy work in the logging clearing at the foot of the opposite mountain. lumberjack.

Father Fox's nose was sore when he saw this scene.It's all useless by myself, if I have the ability, I can buy all the surrounding mountains, and the babies don't have to follow me to hide in Tibet, and they don't have to hide in the wild mountains and ridges.

Father Fox packed up the vegetable-drenching bucket and wooden spoon, carried three bundles of leeks, and went into the woods to pass them to the three baby foxes.It's like three puppies waiting to be fed when they see meaty bones.

"Shall we eat scrambled eggs with leeks today?"

"it is good!"

"Little fish want to eat!"

"egg!"

After lunch, Father Fox put away the bowls and chopsticks, then called the three baby foxes to him, sat upright, and looked at the three dazed baby foxes seriously.

"Father has something important to tell you three." Father Fox paused for a moment, his expression more serious than ever before, "Listen well, in order to prevent others from discovering the identity of the baby fox, from now on, we must control the tail and ear training."

The three baby foxes also imitated the appearance of their father sitting upright, with their waists stretched straight, their faces tensed, and they nodded solemnly.

"Okay, let's start now, trying to maintain the human form during the day, without showing the ears and tail."

The fox babies continued to nod.

"Then start with controlling the ears, Stone, come here!" Father Fox called.

Shitou tilted his head, his eyes were blank, and he walked slowly to his father's chest.

"Ah—" Father Fox suddenly yelled, his voice was sharp and piercing, and his face distorted, like an evil ghost from hell.

The stone baby was startled, and the two furry ears on the top of its head popped out instantly.

Caocao and Xiaoyu were also dumbfounded, looking at their father foolishly.

Father Fox wondered, wasn't he scary enough just now?

"Wow!" The next moment, the three baby foxes burst into tears at the same time.

Father Fox was startled, and felt distressed immediately. He held the three baby foxes in his arms, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, just now Daddy deliberately scared the babies, it's fake, it's not real, don't be afraid..."

After a good meal, the baby foxes stopped crying.Father Fox's heart finally fell.

"Look, if you are scared, will you show your ears next time? If the babies can't control themselves and let their ears and tails show, and others see them, they will be captured!"

"Father..." The heads of the three baby foxes were buried in the arms of the fox father, and they kept drilling.The fox babies didn't understand the meaning of what father fox said at all, and they couldn't understand father fox's painstaking efforts.

They have lived in this mountain since they were born. The family of four lives happily and carefree all day long. Even if there are bad guys who catch them, it would be good if they don't see themselves. Why did my father treat me so viciously?

They just felt wronged in their hearts, oh, dad was so fierce just now...

Father Fox looked helplessly at the three baby foxes in his arms who for some reason started dropping golden beans again, so he rubbed their heads and smoothed their hair, hoping that the babies would stop crying.

They cried so hard that Father Fox's hard-hearted determination was faltering, and it was about to fall apart.
