At dusk, Lu Gu stood on the ladder in fear, wiped away the tears on his face and shouted to the forest outside: "Good boy!"

There was no dog barking in the woods to respond, and there were only tall trees in front of him, blocking his view.The dust splashed on the ground and the smoke and dust of the overturned grass faded away, except for these traces, there was no other movement.

The wind blew again, Lin Xiao continued to sway, it was dusk, the mountain was getting cold quickly, dust was all over Lu Gu's body, and the dust on his face was washed away by tears, he was in a panic.

He stood on the top of the wall in a daze, with a dazed and confused expression. After hearing no response, he shed tears again. It was getting late, and he didn't dare to go out to find the boy, and he didn't even dare to open the courtyard door, so the more he thought about it, the more sad he became. I want to hide my face and cry bitterly.

Tears pattered down on the mud wall and clothes, and his face became dirtier. He pursed his lips tightly, trying to restrain such useless things as crying, but the tears just couldn't be restrained, and flowed more and more.

Until several dogs were barking, he hurriedly looked up, but it was Dahui and Dahei rushing out from the forest in the east, running much faster than usual, like two gusts of wind, they soon reached the gate of the courtyard, raised their heads towards He barked twice.

Shen Xuanqing is back.

Lu Gu didn't care about anything else, he almost slipped down the ladder, gritted his teeth and tried to move the long tree trunk above the door away. As soon as the courtyard door opened, Big Ash squeezed in from the outside, wagging its tail around him, but His expression was completely different from usual, as if he smelled a beast and became agitated.

Dahei lowered his head and sniffed the traces on the ground, Lu Gu ignored them and only looked towards the forest to the east.

Soon, a vigorous figure appeared between the trees. Shen Xuanqing's chest heaved violently, and the bamboo basket on his back disappeared. After seeing him at the door, his expression stopped being anxious.

Lu Gu couldn't stop crying, and also ran towards Shen Xuanqing.

"Are you okay?" Shen Xuanqing gasped. On the way back, he saw wild boars arching the ground, and the traces were all the way to the yard. Frightened, he even lost the bamboo basket and the prey. After unloading the weight, he ran back with only his longbow and quiver on his back. Dahui and Dahei also smelled the smell of wild boar and ran ahead of him.

Lu Gu's eyes were full of tears, his throat was choked up and he couldn't speak for a moment, he could only shake his head to indicate that he was fine.

He finally found his voice, and cried, "My dear boy, my dear boy has led the wild boar away and ran away. I can't find it, I can't find it."

Seeing that there was no injury on Lu Gu's body other than rubbing the dust, Shen Xuanqing was relieved. After listening to him, he found that the boy was not there. Looking around, he found that there were traces of trampling on the ground at the gate of the courtyard. Quickly asked: "Have you met the wild boar face to face?"

"Yeah." Lu Gu nodded and wept. He raised his hand and wiped his face heavily with his dusty sleeve, which made his face even dirtier. It’s far away, it can’t deal with it alone, what should I do.”

Shen Xuanqing glanced at the traces going far away over there, and her face became serious.

The deep mountain is very big, and some forests are dense. I don't know where the boy will run. If I really go out to look for it, I should be able to find it along the trails, but it will be dark in less than two quarters of an hour. Sometimes you can't see anything.

This place is not like Qianshan, where a few people light torches and dare to search and call at night, there are wolves, tigers and leopards in the depths, if they attract bloodthirsty and meat-eating beasts, they will lose their lives.

"Go back first." Shen Xuanqing said in a deep voice.

When he saw the battered courtyard door and the broken wooden latch, his complexion became even worse. It looked like a big wild boar.

"It's a male, black and big, with a pair of tusks turned outward." Lu Gu stopped crying, and told him the scene just now with his tears: "The wild boar chased me, and I ran into it." In the courtyard, I want to let the boy come in, but the wild boar can only back up and can't get in. When I close the door, the wild boar slams into the door and almost breaks open. I haven't put the tree trunk on top at that time. Aberdeen lured the wild boar away outside."

"Yeah." Shen Xuanqing frowned and thought, the male wild boars in the mountains often forage alone, so there is no need to worry about a herd of wild boars nearby, it's just that this kind of thing comes out at night and chases the boy away, in case Encountered on the road, even with a machete in his hand, he couldn't deal with it head-on.

Wild boars have rough skin and thick flesh, and if they miss a single blow, they will go berserk. They will run amok when their eyes are red, not to mention killing people. They will eat anything, even corpses.

After thinking for a while, there was no way out, so Shen Xuanqing had no choice but to say: "Tomorrow morning, I will take Big Hui out to look for it."

Lu Gu looked up at him in a daze, even his lips were pale, and murmured: "That boy..."

Shen Xuanqing's heart was heavy, and she felt a little guilty. She pursed her lower lip slightly and said, "My boy is smart, and nothing will happen. Find a hidden place to hide at night. It only takes one night. I'll look for him tomorrow morning."

"En." Lu Gu nodded, he was too anxious just now, now thinking about the danger at night, he must not let Shen Xuanqing go out.

"It's getting dark, clean up, and fix the door first." Shen Xuanqing said, and brought back the wooden bucket rolled on the ground at the door. As for the bamboo baskets and prey thrown on the road, we will wait until we find the boy tomorrow.

After the courtyard door was closed, Lu Gu still felt uncomfortable. He and Shen Xuanqing couldn't do anything, they could only hope that the boy would be smart enough to avoid accidents. It was already smart and should hide itself at night.

-

As soon as the sky was bright, Shen Xuanqing took Da Hui out to find Guai Zai, leaving Da Hei behind.

The two of them didn't sleep well last night. When Lu Gu closed his eyes, either the ugly and ferocious wild boar attacked him, or the boy couldn't find him, and he woke up from time to time. Now he sat on the threshold and watched Shen Xuanqing leave. He looked tired, with bruises under his eyes, but he didn't feel sleepy at all, he just wanted to wait here for Shen Xuanqing to find the boy and bring him back.

"good boy!"

Shen Xuanqing followed the traces on the ground all the way to find it, and the shout echoed between the mountains, forests and valleys.Da Hui seemed to know that they were looking for Guai Zai, so he raised his head and whined long into the distance.

After walking for more than half an hour, the traces on the ground gradually became shallower. He stopped to check carefully. It should be that the wild boar failed to catch up with the boy and went to the other side.

The traces of wild boars foraging, as well as the feces on the ground and a few strands of hair hanging on tree trunk stones, are easy for hunters to distinguish. However, dogs are small in size and eat meat instead of eating grass. Leaves and trees, it’s okay to run on the muddy ground, and you can see footprints. Once you get into the deep forest, there are few people here.

The immediate priority is to find Guaizi first, otherwise if he runs away and gets lost in the deep mountains, and runs farther and farther, he will never be able to find him again.

Following the one or two paw prints left by Guaizi, he continued to walk forward with Big Ash. In order to find the road as soon as possible, the tall and short trees and vines made him dirty, and he also encountered several nests of snakes. He often runs in the mountains, and he is not afraid of snakes, insects, rats and ants, and Dahui is very alert, and will remind him when he finds a snake.

After losing the boy's footprints again, Shen Xuanqing could only wait for Dahui to sniff nearby. He has good eyesight and hearing, but he can't be as sharp as a dog's nose.

Dahui ran into a dense forest, and even turned his head and called out to him, his heart sank, he really got into this kind of deep forest.

But Guaizai can't be blamed for this, he is just a dog loyal to his master, wandering outside all night, he can go anywhere.

"good boy!"

He went into the woods and called out, but heard no answer.

-

Lu Gu sat on the threshold and waited, looking at the direction where Shen Xuanqing left. Dahei stood beside him and turned around from time to time, as if he knew that he was not in a good mood, even wagging his tail dully once or twice.

The sun was getting higher and higher, and he was in a daze. For a while, he felt that the waiting was hard, and for a while, he looked up, squinting his eyes stimulated by the sun, and only then realized that it was almost noon.

He took a few hasty bites of last night's dinner, and now he felt hungry, so he got up and went to the kitchen to touch two white flour steamed buns, and threw one to Dahei, who sat in front of the clay stove and ate while boiling water.

The family harvested a lot of wheat this year, and this time I brought a lot of new noodles, so I can eat white steamed buns every day.

This wait lasted for a long time, the sun moved to the west, Lu Gu sat on the threshold and became more and more uneasy, Shen Xuanqing never came back, did he not find the boy, or did something really happen to the boy?

Sometimes, when there is no forgiving person by his side, the more he thinks about it, the more afraid he becomes, and all bad things will appear in his mind, his face turns pale, and he can't sit still. Said to wait here, I am afraid he has already taken Dahei out.

Lu Gu is not stupid, his impulsiveness made him want to find Shen Xuanqing by himself, but he also knows the dangers in the mountains, with his meager ability, he can't even hunt rabbits, even if he brings Dahei with him, it won't help, the only thing he can do is wait.

The sun is gradually setting to the west, and it will be dark in another hour, Lu Gu's heart seems to be sinking, he is afraid that something will happen to the boy, and Shen Xuanqing, he is full of fear.

His heart was sore and tight, making him breathless, he could only hold his trousers tightly, trying to cry, the pain almost drowned him.

When he was almost desperate, Dahei, who was lying at his feet, suddenly raised his head, his ears pricked, and he yelled twice in the distance, got up and ran over there.

Lu Gu's feet were faster than he thought, and he ran behind Dahei. The dogs at home were all smart, and they would run out to greet them whenever their own family members came back. Dahei's reaction showed that Shen Xuanqing had returned.

"Wang!"

The familiar barking sound of a dog sounded from a distance, and he stopped in his tracks, tears streaming down his face unconsciously. After raising him for so long, he could of course distinguish the voice of the boy.

"Guy boy!" He shouted, wiped away his tears and ran two quick steps, and saw Guai Zai appearing on the gentle slope at a low place. When he saw him, he became more excited and ran faster.

The wolf green dog that rushed to the front was wagging its tail so fast that you could almost see afterimages. The boy's buttocks were twisting, and there was a whimpering sound in his throat. He even stood up, with his front paws resting on Lu Gu's stomach. On the ground, the touched ears were facing backwards, and they were still licking Lu Gu's cheek and the hand touching it.

Lu Gu didn't dislike it licking it up this time, and rubbed the fluffy dog's head while crying, and only let the boy go down when he saw Shen Xuanqing and Dahui coming from behind.

I haven't seen him all night, and Guaizi misses him very much, keeps rubbing against his leg, wagging his tail non-stop.

"You're fine." Lu Gu's voice was very nasal and muffled.

"It's okay." Shen Xuanqing smiled, his body was covered with dirty dust, but it didn't affect his bright smile at all. He bent down and patted Big Gray's head, and said, "This time, thanks to Big Gray, it is the one who found the good boy." young."
