Pastoral Daily Life

    It was already midnight when Da Hei came back.

    Lu Lingxi waited left and right to wait until Da Hei came back, and fell asleep while being held by Yan Yue. Because of something in my heart, I haven't slept very well all the time. As soon as there was movement outside, he woke up with a start. Yan Yue woke up a little earlier than him and was already dressing.

    Lu Lingxi couldn't sleep, thinking that Yan Yue brought Da Hei in for a while, she agreed, lying on the bed waiting for Da Hei. But the strange thing is that after Yan Yue went out, there was no sound, not even Da Hei. He couldn't lie still, and hurriedly dressed and went out, and was a little stunned for a while.

    Da Hei is back, but it's not just Da Hei who comes back.

    There are more than 20 dogs squatting in the small yard, Da Hei squatting in the front, with a dog in his mouth that looks like he was born a few months ago, curled up and fell asleep A mature puppy. Yan Yue stood at the front and looked at Da Hei, Lu Lingxi could almost see the veins jumping on Yan Yue's forehead.

    Hearing the movement behind him, Yan Yue tried his best to soften his expression, turned to look at Lu Lingxi and said, "It's cold outside, why is Xiaoxi up?"

    He looked helpless, although he had pressed it as hard as possible, he could still see the twitching of the corners of his mouth. Lu Lingxi knew that he shouldn't be smiling at this time, but he couldn't help it. It was the first time he saw Yan Yue's headache, and he smiled with his eyebrows curved. "Brother Yan."

    The boy's tone was cheerful, and Big Brother Yan had a hint of coquettishness. Yan Yue had no choice but to indulge him: "Does Xiaoxi want them all to stay?"

    Lu Lingxi nodded and couldn't help laughing again.

    Seeing Lu Lingxi nodding, Da Hei put down the little milk dog in his mouth, turned around and barked quite seriously. The dogs in the yard seemed to understand what it meant, and they responded in twos and threes. But it seems that they are afraid of waking up the neighbors around, they all deliberately lowered their voices, it sounds like a group of dogs are coquettish.

    Lu Lingxi was a little curious to see this scene, Da Hei has always been alone, even if he went to Brother Dong's pet store, he didn't communicate with other puppies at all. This is still Da Hei's first. Once with other dogs. And the way they communicate... Can each other really understand what the other is saying? Lu Lingxi's mind drifted to where he didn't know, and Yan Yue looked at the dogs in the courtyard with a strange look, and suddenly thought of the question Lu Lingxi asked him last time. Plants have evolved, will animals evolve? At the time, Yan Yue felt that this question was a little far-fetched, but looking at the scene in front of him, he began to be uncertain.

    Da Hei shocked the dogs in the yard, turned around and barked lowly at Lu Lingxi, as if explaining something.

    Lu Lingxi felt that he understood what Da Hei meant, explaining the origin of these dogs. Some of these dogs are stray dogs nearby, some are dogs who can't go home temporarily without a dog hole at home, and there is a little milk dog who can't be driven away by the big black. When talking about the little milk dog, Lu Lingxi even felt that he could hear the helpless taste in Da Hei's mouth.

    Just as Da Hei explained it, the little milk dog on the ground seemed to wake up. Before its eyes were fully opened, the pink and tender little nose first sniffed, then squinted and moved to Da Hei's side, got under its stomach and continued to fall asleep.

    When the sky was a little brighter, the dogs were finally settled. Lu Lingxi "brutally" grabbed every stray dog ​​and gave them a bath, and then discussed with Yan Yue where the dogs would go. Not all stray dogs came back with Da Hei. The dogs that came back were all older dogs and looked very thin and thin.

    Lu Lingxi felt that since they came back with Da Hei, they just didn't want to wander anymore. It just happens to be kept in the garden, and they can't eat much anyway. As the size of the flowerbed became larger and larger, Uncle Li also suggested that they hire someone to guard the flowerbed at night. If you have this pack of dogs, it will be fine to hire another person. After he finished speaking, he looked at Yan Yue with bright eyes. Yan Yue had always indulged him, and naturally nodded in agreement. Although Yan Yue felt that it was more suitable to keep a few wolf dogs in the flowerbed, these local dogs didn't matter. He likes the softness in the boy's heart, and because he doesn't have it, he is more willing to protect this softness.

    "Brother Yan, thank you." Lu Lingxi said seriously. It seems that no matter what he does, Yan Yue will do it, making him more and more dependent on Yan Yue unknowingly. This dependence seems to have become a habit and integrated into life.

    Yan Yue smiled at the serious look of the young man. A smile poured out of his eyes, and the originally handsome face was even more handsome, with an indescribable charm. Lu Lingxi was a little stunned, and the tips of his ears suddenly turned red. He could feel his heart pounding, as if it was about to jump out of his throat the next moment.

    "What does Xiaoxi want to thank Brother Yan?" Yan Yue asked with a hint of teasing.

    Lu Lingxi blinked, as dull as he knew that Yan Yue didn't really want his thanks. The smile in Yan Yue's eyes deepened, and he leaned over and kissed Lu Lingxi.

    When I woke up again, it was past nine o'clock. Last night, after taking care of the dog in the middle of the night, Lu Lingxi overslept for the first time. Yan Yue had already called Dong Qi and asked Dong Qi to help him hang up a one-day closing sign at the door of Micro Gardening. Since he didn't have to go to the store today, Lu Lingxi didn't rush back to Fengcheng at all. After washing his face and tidying up, he walked around the village alone.

    The fact that the dogs in the village ran away collectively and found them all in the middle of the night became a hot topic in the whole village. Under the big willow tree, the villagers had to get together in twos and threes. The topic at the beginning must be: "Did your dog run away yesterday? When did it come back?" Because of the big black, Lu Lingxi was pulled and asked this several times. question.

    Just when the villagers were paying attention to this matter, another well-informed villager broke out another bombarding news. Last night, the plastic yard in Songjiazhuang was besieged by a group of dogs. I heard that there were hundreds of dogs surrounding the plastic factory. The dogs from several nearby villages were all dispatched, and even the dogs kept in Songjiazhuang surrounded them. This group of dogs has a clear division of labor. The big dog is slamming the door outside, and the puppies squeeze in and make trouble everywhere. Several machines in the plastics factory were damaged, and the people inside were terrified.

     "Should! Let them drain the waste water in the middle of the night. Isn't that fooling us."

    "That's right, scaring them."

    Although the people in the village had some weird expressions when they heard the news, they still felt that the people of Songjiazhuang committed suicide by themselves, and even dogs couldn't stand it anymore. If you think about it, there are many wild dogs nearby. Usually, the dogs in the village are basically not tied, and they are allowed to run. Dogs need to drink water when they are tired from running, and they also need to drink water when it is hot. The only nearby water source, the Lingshui River, was polluted by Songjiazhuang. These dogs have no place to drink water, aren't they going to make trouble?

    In the countryside of China, dogs have always been regarded as spiritual animals, and there are many stories similar to dogs taking revenge. The older people are, the more they believe this, and they all say that the dog king is angry and calls on the dogs to take revenge. In less than half a day, the story spread around nearby.

    People in Songjiazhuang also heard the story. Song Wancai murmured in his heart that what happened last night was a little evil. First, there was a sound like a wolf howling from the entrance of the village, and then the dogs in the village rioted, and ran out of the house after climbing over the wall and drilling holes. When the people in the village chased them out, they saw a group of dogs surrounded the plastic field.

    Song Wancai wanted to greet the villagers to drive these dogs away, but the people surrounding the outermost area were all dogs raised by the villagers themselves. They didn't even fight, and the dog owner didn't listen to them, and they kept making noise until midnight, which made everyone in the village torment miserable.

    "There's no real dog king, right?"

    Song Wancai was a little convinced, and wanted to discuss with the people in the plastic factory to stop work for a few days. The manager of the plastics factory is Jin Laoliu, who is not a local. He was a little unhappy when he heard Song Wancai's words. Stopping work means loss. He is already distressed enough to stop work during the day, and stop at night to drink the northwest wind.

    Jin Laoliu insisted, Song Wancai hesitated, and continued to work.

    The people of Songjiazhuang don't believe in evil, and Yan Yue doesn't think they can stop work once. When he and Lu Lingxi returned to the city in the morning, Da Hei was left in the flowerbed. Now that you have done it, just do it to the end, completely once and for all.

    Lu Lingxi was reluctant to part with Da Hei for the first time. He squatted in front of Da Hei and touched Da Hei's head, promising to pick him up in two days. Yan Yue looked a little appetizing. The last time he returned to Beijing, Lu Lingxi didn't show such reluctance. While Lu Lingxi was not paying attention, Yan Yue glared at Da Hei fiercely.

    Stupid dog!

    Da Hei ignored Yan Yue's eyes and rubbed Lu Lingxi's palm affectionately. He knew what he was going to do when he stayed, leading the dogs behind him, looking very dignified and dignified. Of course, the premise of all this is to pretend not to see the little milk dog with the **** legs.

    The owner of the little milk dog is the man and woman that Lu Lingxi heard about yesterday. I don't know how the four-month-old little milk dog ran out of the yard. In the morning, Da Hei followed the smell and sent the little milk dog back, but the little milk dog refused to leave Da Hei. The hostess of that house looked funny and threw it to Da Hei with confidence.

    Lu Lingxi finished touching the big black, and then the little milk dog, and finally followed Yan Yue back to the city.

    That night, the plastic factory in Songjiazhuang did not stop, and Da Hei once again summoned a group of dogs to surround it. The plastic factory is ready this time, and has found a lot of poles for dogs. Da Hei looked angry, jumped lightly, and bit off the bamboo pole that was closest to it. The group of dogs behind them followed suit, and soon rushed into the plastic factory, making a fuss.

    For three days in a row, Da Hei took a group of dogs to contain the plastic factory. The plastic factory has also developed from a dog's pole to buying a bag of rat poison in a bun, scattered around the plastic factory. To the surprise of the people inside, none of the dogs went to eat these buns. There were a few who couldn't help but be greedy, and were reprimanded by the leading big dogs.

    Darkness shrouded in darkness, the black dog group squatted outside the plastic factory, looking like a well-trained army. Now, needless to say, among the workers in the plastic factory who were lured by high overtime pay, even Song Wancai, who came with the villagers to disperse the dogs, couldn't hold it any longer. He felt that the scene in front of him was really frightening. Some of the timid villagers had their legs weak, and said with a trembling voice, "Aren't these dogs becoming sperm?"

    Seeing that the situation was wrong, Jin Lao Liu rushed out aggressively holding a shotgun he didn't know where he got it. Before he could take aim, Da Hei's figure flew out, baring his teeth and pressing him to the ground.

    "Kill... kill." Jin Laoliu shouted like a pig.

    The people in the plastic factory took a step back, and no one dared to come forward to save him.

    Da Hei pulled the shotgun with his paw, and a stray dog ​​ran out quickly and took the gun away. Da Hei squinted and looked around, and the few people who were facing it shivered: "Dog... Gou Daxian?"

    Da Hei ignored them, raised his head and barked, and the group of dogs behind him snorted. Song Wancai felt that he would never forget this day in his entire life, the way hundreds of dogs howled up to the sky together, and the **** dog in the front.

    It wasn't until it was almost dawn that Da Hei led the dogs away. As soon as they left, the workers in the plastic factory made a fuss about resigning, and no one dared to stay. Song Wancai went to Jin Lao Liu with his pounding heart, and he was ready to stop the factory first, but he was frightened. In the end, after searching for a long time, no one was found. Finally, I heard that Jin Lao Liu had fainted from fright and was sent to the clinic in the village.

    The surrounding villages all know what happened in Songjiazhuang. I heard that the first thing Jin Laoliu did when he woke up was to close the plastic factory and leave. Is he not going to stay in this ghost place anymore, those dogs are not dogs at all, they are all scumbags.

    Uncle Li quickly told Lu Lingxi about this by phone. The old man didn't know that the legendary dog ​​king was Da Hei, so he exaggerated and praised the dog king on the phone. Although Lu Lingxi couldn't tell Da Hei's identity, he heard Yu Yourongyan and made up his mind to pick up Da Hei at night and bring him a box of chicken drumsticks by the way.

     After hanging up, Lu Lingxi spoke to Yan Yue again. Yan Yue was not in Micro Gardening, but went to Xue Yongtong. Gao Yongliang formulated the first perfume with the essential oil extracted from begonia, and specially invited Yan Yue to take a look at the sample. Hearing that Lu Lingxi wanted to go to the flowerbed to pick up Da Hei at night, Yan Yue readily agreed and asked Lu Lingxi to wait for him in the store, and he would come back immediately. But not long after Yan Yue hung up the phone, the sky suddenly darkened, and a heavy rain poured down without warning. There was lightning and thunder for a while, pedestrians on the road avoided one after another, and the falling rain quickly accumulated on the street.

    Lu Lingxi brought the flowers placed at the door back to the store in the rain, looking at the sky outside with some worry. It was dark before five o'clock, and the visibility was very low. I definitely can't go to the flowerbed like this. Da Hei has Uncle Li to take care of him and doesn't need him to worry about it. Now he is worried about such a heavy rain, how will Yan Yue come back.

    Yan Yue's text message came soon, he is now stuck on the road, let Lu Lingxi not worry. Yan Yue didn't say it, but Lu Lingxi was even more worried when he said he was blocked on the road. Glancing out the window again, Lu Lingxi couldn't stop thinking about what to do, so he simply carried a rattan chair and sat at the door while waiting for Yan Yue, while reading the news on the Internet with his mobile phone.

    For this rain, Fengcheng Weather Station was also very surprised, and there was no warning at all before. I don't know what's going on. The weather in China this year is very abnormal. The southwest side was originally a humid area, but it didn't rain a few times throughout the summer, and there was a severe drought that was rare in decades. Fengcheng's side is better, although the temperature is ridiculously high, but there will always be heavy rain every once in a while, and it's not too dry. The most puzzling is the northwest. As a traditionally severe drought area, this year it rained too much, and several small-scale floods broke out. These news are superimposed together, and there is a feeling that the climate of China is completely messed up.

    Lu Lingxi put away the phone and looked out the window, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, as if a hole had been torn in the sky and someone was spraying water down. There are no pedestrians at all on the road. Occasionally, cars drive past, and they drive very slowly, wandering past Micro Gardening. After so long, Yan Yue hadn't come back, and he didn't know where he was trapped, so Lu Lingxi became a little anxious.

    He was anxious, and Yan Yue was even more anxious.

    There was a car accident at the intersection not far from the street of Micro Gardening. All the cars on one road were blocked there, pulling into a long line in the distance. Yan Yue put his hands on the steering wheel and tapped the steering wheel lightly with his fingers. This is the action when he is thinking, and it is also the subconscious action when he is irritable.

    It's past six o'clock, and Lu Lingxi is still stuck in micro gardening. Yan Yue was in a hurry to find him, for fear that something would happen to the young man alone. The window of a car next to him was slightly opened, and there was a faint scolding. "This **** weather."

    Yan Yue wanted to scold after hearing this, "This **** ghost weather."

    He was fine when he went to Xue Yongtong in the afternoon. The weather forecast didn't say there would be rain this afternoon. Who would have thought that such a heavy rain would suddenly come. Fortunately, the traffic police seemed to have taken into account today's weather conditions, and the car accident in front was handled fairly quickly, and the traffic jammed together slowly started to walk away.

    Yan Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and looked out the window a little carelessly, suddenly his eyes changed, and his eyes condensed on a car opposite. That car was the car that had been involved in the accident on the corner earlier. The person in the driver's seat was Yin Ya, whom he hadn't seen in a while, while the co-pilot unexpectedly was Lu Weian.

    From his point of view, Yin Ya is smiling and talking to Lu Wei'an, and the relationship between the two seems to be somewhat close. Yan Yue's eyes were clear, and he remembered the mother's plan mentioned by the housekeeper. I just don't know what the two of them are doing in Fengcheng?

    In the other car, Lu Wei'an took a keen look outside. Yin Ya said with concern, "Brother Wei An, what's the matter?"

    Lu Wei'an frowned slightly, "I always felt like someone was looking at us just now?" Because of his illness, he was very sensitive to other people's eyes, and he was sure that someone was looking at them just now, not an illusion.

    Yin Ya didn't care much, "Maybe she's looking at our car."

    Lu Weian smiled and didn't speak again, seemingly accepting this explanation.

    Meeting Yin Ya was just a small episode, Yan Yue quickly withdrew his attention. The two cars passed by across the fence, Yan Yue didn't look at each other again, but turned in the direction of Micro Gardening. A quarter of an hour later, Yan Yue finally received Lu Lingxi. "Get in the car quickly."

    Lu Lingxi took the umbrella and trotted into the car, so his right shoulder was also wet.

    Yan Yue touched Lu Lingxi's face uneasy, feeling a little too cold. He found a coat from the back seat and replaced Lu Lingxi's clothes, and asked, "Is it cold?"

    Lu Lingxi shook his head, "It's okay."

    Yan Yue reluctantly let go. Now that he has connected with Lu Lingxi, he is not in a hurry. The two drove slowly all the way, and planned to turn to the small restaurant to pick up Wang Shuxiu in the middle, but Wang Shuxiu said that the rain was too heavy, so they should leave her alone, and she would just live upstairs in the small restaurant.

    Lu Lingxi heard Brother Feng's voice faintly on the phone, and hung up the phone with a strange expression.

    "What?" Yan Yue asked, noticing his expression.

    Lu Lingxi frowned, "Brother Feng was blocked by the rain in the small restaurant."

    Yan Yue was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized what Lu Lingxi meant, and couldn't help but laugh. No matter what, Lu Lingxi was still a child, and seemed to have a natural possessiveness towards his mother. Xiao Feng was just blocked by the rain in the small restaurant, Lu Lingxi was already vigilant, as if what would happen to Xiao Feng.

    "Don't like Xiao Feng?"

    Lu Lingxi shook his head, "No, it just feels weird."

    Yan Yue rubbed his hair with a smile and did not comment on the matter.

    The two slept very early when they got home. They didn't know that on this night, the continuous heavy rain caused the water level of the Lingshui River to skyrocket, and the black river water wrapped in silt began to move towards the village. spread in the ground. From Songjiazhuang to Shigou River, the black river water slowly seeped into the ground, polluting large tracts of fields.

    Among the villages that Lingshui River passes through, Lingshui Village is the only one that is not polluted by river water. The roots of the big willow tree are firmly planted by the river, and the intertwined roots block the infiltration of the river water, slowly absorbing the river water that has not come over.
