Anyway, the kids are safe, everybody went home to eat and sleep. Liu Hutou did not sleep for a night, sitting in the room to watch the night, and several times sneaked out around the yard to see if there were thieves coming over.
Nothing happened that night.
Next day, Liu Hutou went to Yamen to report, the govenwith more than a dozen servants, carried by stones and beams, to see the ravine that had been fighting the previous day.
Next day, Liu Hutou went to Yamen to report, the government sent some officers to investigate this case with Stone and Liangzi.
There were indeed traces of fighting on the ground and in the ditch, as well as blood, but they didn't find any wounded ones. The officers just wrote something in their notebooks, and went back to Yamen.
A few days later, all the work before the winter was almost finished. Stone and Liang Zi took the younger brother and sister to the vicinity of Houye's Manor, and played war games with the kids of neighbor village, Zhangjiazhuang. Stone and his brothers defended a soil platform, and the children from Zhaojiazhuang attacked them. After several rounds of offense and defense, the two groups of children had their own wins and losses, and they were tired. So they sat under the mound and rested, bragging, telling stories.
In this aspect, Stone had some advantages. He told the children a story of a bragging king that his father of the "Future World" told him, the children laughed.
"... I entered the dense woods and saw a small male boar and a female boar. They came to me face to face. I shot with an arrow but did not hit. Little boar went straight ahead, the old sow was still standing, and it didn't move, just like being stuck on the ground. I approached the sound and saw it, but found it was a blink of an eye. The sow, which originally bit the tail of the little boar, the little boar had to walk with his mother in order to fulfill the child's filial piety. My arrow happened to pass through the two of them, interrupting the pulling of the game, so the old sow still biting the tip of the tail. At this time, it lacked the son who led the way and had to stop. I then made a ready-made, went to grab the tail left by the pig, and took the effort to take the helpless old sow to the house."
"It was very scary to meet the female wild boar. If it was a male boar, it will be more violent and more dangerous. Once upon a time, I had met one in the woods. It was unfortunate. I didn't have the power to attack it and I didn't have the ability to defend myself. In the midst of this millennium, I was still clever, and after hiding my body behind the tree, the angry beast, with all my strength, flew straight to me from the side. However, instead of touching me with a villus hair, it deeply embedded the secondary teeth in the tree, so that it could not be pulled out at once, and it was impossible to attack me again. Aha! I thought, I can catch you this time! I didn't say anything, I picked up a stone and slammed it a few times, knocking its teeth deeper so that it could never be pulled out. In this way, it had to wait until I was from a neighboring village. I took the trolley and the twine and took it back. This was really great... "
It was getting dark, "That is all for today" Stone said," and I will come here tomorrow to tell you what happened then. " The children are reluctant, but they had to go home.
"What anxious, such a good story, I haven't heard enough!" Stone didn't know when Hou Ye sat on the mound and smiled. "Come on, what happened then?"
But the kids had to go home, they could hear the voices that their mom called them back home.
The family was about to eat. Hou Ye brought a roast chicken into the house: "Stone, the story you told yesterday was so good. Can we help me to write it down?"
"What story?" Auntie Zhao asked.
"My ridiculous story," Stone said.
"The story is really fun, I stop to hear!" Zhaodi said.
