Chapter 140: The Big Cat Puzzle

Looking at the flames in the distance, three words popped out of Wen Xu's mind instantly: It's on fire!

After being stunned for a second, he immediately came back to his senses, so Wen Xu threw off his legs and ran towards Wen Shigui's hill.

Except for Wen Xu, everyone immediately put down their work, and if they had anything available, they took it with them, and everyone rushed towards the fire.

At this time, we can see the results of Wen Xu's long-distance running these days.

Although he ran fast, when he got to the place, he only had the strength to breathe. He raised his hands several times but couldn't speak, and he was holding his knees and panting heavily. As for fighting the fire? That's even more impossible.

"Sheep, is there any loss for the sheep?"

When she was able to speak, Wen Xu hurriedly asked.

What should be burned has been burned, even if you want to save the rest, there is nothing to save, a few bare wooden pillars, and they are the kind that are so black that they are almost carbonized, even if they are saved, they will be the last ones. It is also the end of dismantling, the only suitable thing for it is useless except for making charcoal.

There is a reason why the shed burned fast, because Wen Shigui wanted to save trouble, and the roof of the shed was made of nothing but straw, and the weather in the past two days has been super good, so if this guy goes up with a little spark It's terrible, not to mention that people like Wen Xu came from such a long distance, even if they were on the scene, it was not so easy to save them from the fire.

At this time, Guangcheng arrived, after all, he was young and physically strong. But he is just a person, here not only does he have no strength to speak, but also the strength to stand upright. As for people after Guangcheng, they all come on foot, just like this, everyone is still out of breath. gas.

"There is no loss. The sheep are all fine and we drove them out," said Aunt You.

At this time, Second Aunt You brought Guangfang and daughter-in-law Liu Yan to stand in front of the crowd. Now the three of them don't look good, their upper and lower bodies are wet, and they each hold a basin in their hands. There is half a basin of water that hasn't been spilled, not to mention the face, which is wiped like an opera.

"That's really lucky!" Wen Xu heard that the sheep had no losses, and understood that the damage caused by the fire was almost negligible.

Wen Guangcheng caught his breath at this moment, and asked Aunt You and the others: "Auntie, brother, how did this fire start?"

Aunt You said: "I saw a big tabby cat, it was too big, it looked like a little leopard."

Having said that, Second Aunt You made a gesture and continued, "I think it wants to catch the lamb in the pen, so it took the family dog ​​with a stick to drive the cat away. The cat immediately shrank when it saw someone. It was a coincidence that the lantern cover fell to the ground and broke, and the oil spilled out, and it was all covered in one fell swoop.”

At this time, Guangfang complained and said: "Mom, I told you not to use horse lanterns, don't use horse lanterns, and gas lanterns don't cost much money!"

"I hung that lantern there? Did your father tell you that the lantern in the shed is going to be hung on a lamp stand? How many times has he told you?" Second Aunt You stared at her son with a stern face. scowl.

Seeing that her mother-in-law was angry, Liu Yan immediately pulled her husband who wanted to continue talking, and said to Aunt You with a smile: "Mom, Guangfang is wrong about this, but let's not talk about it at this time, the problem now is What should we do with so many lambs in our family tonight?"

Second Aunt You heard her daughter-in-law open her mouth,

I didn't mention this matter anymore, thought it over and said: "It's all burned like this, your father-in-law will definitely come over."

At this time, Guangcheng asked curiously: "Brother Guangfang, have you and sister-in-law seen the cat that auntie mentioned?"

"No, your sister-in-law and I were going to sleep in the house at the time, and we came out only when we heard my mother's cry. When we came out, the fire had already started, and we didn't care about seeing any cats," Wen Guangfang said.

Liu Yan also said: "I didn't watch it either. I was so stupid when I saw the fire. I didn't even think about watching cats."

After hearing this, Guangcheng said: "Auntie, don't just look at the flowers in the dark at night, how can there be such a big cat, let alone a cat, according to your gestures, it is not a cat at all, but a leopard! Now Where will there be leopards?"

Second Aunt You looked at Guangcheng and said unwillingly: "Your Second Aunt is old, but I am not blind and my mind is not confused. I know what I see."

Wen Xu has seen leopards before, although he was in the zoo, but seeing Aunt You's gestures, he felt that this thing didn't look like a leopard, not to mention, as Guangcheng said, there might have been leopards in Wenjia Village before liberation , even if it existed at that time, people rarely saw it, let alone now? After liberation, even the trees in this large area were almost cut down, so there would be no leopards.

Hearing what Aunt You said, Wen Xu finally understood why Guangfang said it was her fault, probably because the old lady saw something dazzled and mistaken it for a big cat, so she accidentally broke the lantern, which caused this fire.

Seeing everyone's disbelieving eyes, Second Aunt You immediately became a little angry, and opened her mouth and said, "I said such a big cat! It has such a long tail!"

"Second aunt, there isn't a cat this big in our village, and the biggest one has the tail as long as the cat you gestured for!" Wen Guangmin stepped forward and said to Second Aunt You.

"You don't believe it, wait for the day when this big cat takes something from your house, then you will believe it!" Second Aunt You said.

The ones that should have been burned were gone, and the ones that should not have been burned were not burned. Everyone watched for a while and helped to take care of it, and then left here one after another.

Guangmin and the others continued to go back and push the bricks, and Wen Xu naturally took Dongliang home.

As soon as he was about to reach his own mountain, Wen Xu saw Wen Shigui riding a bicycle quickly towards him, and shouted while riding: "Who is in front, give way!"

"Second brother, it's me!" Wen Xu stepped aside first: "Don't worry, the fire is extinguished, it didn't burn the sheep, it just burned the shed."

Hearing that the sheep that didn't burn his own house were just the shed, Wen Shigui let out a big breath, got out of the car and took a few breaths: "Oh, seeing the fire here in the village scared me to death. Nearly gone. Just the shed? That's a blessing!"

"The sheep were snatched out by the second sister-in-law and Guangfang," Wen Xu said.

"Then I see, thank you, Shixu." Wen Shigui pushed the car back to his mountain. Although he knew that no sheep had been burned, Wen Shigui still had to see it with his own eyes before he could feel relieved. Now a few hundred lambs have just been brought in, and if they are going to be burnt out, it is really enough for the whole family to hug and cry.

Just passing by Wen Shigui, Wen Xu continued to walk home.

Before walking a few steps, Wen Xu seemed to hear her own sheep bleating on the cliff, a little far away, in such a quiet night, the sheep's cry came faintly, and it was impossible to pay attention to it. Can't hear.

Wen Xu looked down at Dongliang, and saw that Dongliang raised his head high at this time, looking motionlessly in the direction of the sound of the sheep, and after listening for a while, he couldn't stop whining, and turned his head to look at Dongliang. With a warm smile, the tail began to wag violently.

"Walk!"

As soon as he saw Dongliang's movement, Wen Xu called Dong Liang directly, and when he heard Wen Xu's voice, Dong Liang immediately jumped forward, leading the way in front, while Wen Xu followed closely behind Dong Liang, facing the cliff where he herded sheep. ran over.

With the lesson just now, Wen Xu didn't run so fast anymore, but just tried to keep some energy.

When he reached the edge of the cliff, Dongliang kept whining and growling at a cliff in front of him. It seemed that there was something squatting on the cliff. Wen Xu looked at it for a long time under the moonlight, but he didn't see anything. , took out a bright flashlight and looked up, and found that forty or fifty sheep were huddled on a cliff, bleating incessantly.

"Woof! Wang!" Dong Liang barked twice at the sheep on the cliff.

The sheep huddled together on the cliff heard the sound of the pillars, and started to walk slowly down the cliff, jumping back and forth in a zigzag shape, and jumped to the ground from a height of 20 to 30 meters in a short while, surrounding the pillars They huddled together behind them and couldn't stop bleating.

Dongliang still raised his head, stared at a place and barked twice from time to time.

Following Dongliang's barking, the sheep on the cliff came down from the cliff one by one. After about twenty minutes, Wen Nu's side was crowded with no less than hundreds of big sheep, not counting the lambs.

"I'm going!" Seeing these sheep, Wen Xu realized that he had put so many space sheep on the side of the cliff so far.

After sighing sheep, Wen Xu took a flashlight and carefully took a photo on the cliff. When the light hit an old cliff tree, Wen Xu instinctively felt that there was something in the tree, but he just couldn't see what it was.

"It's a ghost!" Wen Xu said according to the motionless old cliff tree.

Wen Xu has space, but he doesn't have the ability to climb such a cliff to see what is hidden behind the old cliff tree, and the thing is still motionless, so Wen Xu can't take it away even if he wants to!

Wen Xu's last patience disappeared when the flashlight was no longer bright.

"Go, go back! Take the sheep back to our shed." After Wen Xu said something to Dong Liang, she turned and walked to her shed.

After Dongliang barked twice, the whole flock started to move.

Bringing the flock to the shed, Wen Xu believed that even a leopard would not be afraid. Even if it was a leopard, it would probably have to consider it when facing hundreds of big geese, not to mention that Wen Xu put Dong Liang here.

Back in her small courtyard, Wen Xu saw Zhuo Yiqing sitting alone on the recliner in the main room. When she opened the door of the main room and walked in, she didn't feel it either, she just nodded her head little by little. , as if wanting to sleep but unable to sleep. Seeing that she opened her eyes wide and looked towards her, Wen Xin thought she had seen her, but who knew that she was just staring blankly, not looking at anything at all, but with the expression of opening and closing her eyes that she was not asleep.

"Why don't you sleep?" Walking to the side of the reclining chair, she said to Zhuo Yiqing in a warm and soft voice.

Zhuo Yiqing opened her eyes and saw Wen Xu standing in front of her: "You are back!"

"Well, why don't you sleep?" Wen Xu said.

Zhuo Yiqing said: "I'll leave the door for you, I'm afraid you won't be able to come in if I sleep and lock the door!"

Wen Xu smiled after hearing this, warmed her heart, stroked a few strands of hair hanging from her forehead, and stroked them gently to her ears: "There will be no problem if the door is not locked, there are no thieves in Wenjia Village."

"Then I'm going to sleep." Zhuo Yiqing's eyes were half open, which showed how sleepy she was.

Wen Xu saw that she wanted to stand up, but her body was wobbling again, so she stretched out her hands and stroked her back, one of them passed through the bend of her legs, and leaned her head against her chest, and hugged her like this.

"Where are you going?" Zhuo Yiqing asked confusedly.

"your room"

"Oh!" Zhuo Yiqing said, and after yawning, she curled up in the warm cup, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

Wen Xu carried her to the room, put her on the bed, lifted the quilt to cover her body, and then helped her take off her shoes. Originally, Wen Xu wanted to take off her pants, not because Wen Xu wanted to do something, but because He felt uncomfortable sleeping in his outer pants, but he stood by the bed and hesitated for a while before giving up, then quietly exited the room and closed the door.

After leaving Zhuo Yiqing's room, Wen Xu took a shower in the shower room, returned to the room and turned off the lights to sleep.

But in the middle of the night, Wen Xu heard some movement in the yard. He thought it was his hallucination, but the sound became louder and louder.

Sitting up from the bed, Wen Xu listened carefully with his ears sideways, and found that there was something moving, so Wen Xu got out of bed, directly took out a wooden stick from the space and copied it in his hand.
