Yejia Village, at night, countless stars are shining on the dark night, shining with weak but firm light.
Under this starry river, the rural fields, mountains, and rivers all look particularly peaceful, and the chirping of insects and frogs interweave into a beautiful nocturne.
At the northern end of the village, a thatched house stands alone, simple and poor.
At the door, a little girl sat blankly on the ground, leaning against the corner, quietly looking towards the entrance of the village. Her little figure looked so thin in the night.
The little girl wore a pair of braids and her hair was black and shiny. Although her face was dirty, it could not hide her clear and bright eyes. The clothes on his body were patched and tattered, and even his shoes had holes in their toes.
After a while, Ye Nannan (nān) carefully took out a bronze ring from her arms and carefully put it on her finger. Then she raised her hand and giggled as she seemed to remember some happy scene.
Nannan means boudoir when a girl has a boudoir. When a girl enters the boudoir, she can be thought of as a girl in the boudoir. A little girl who has never been born is also a pet name for children (including boys and girls) in the village.
Yes, she is only three years old and doesn't have an official name yet.
When she was very young, her parents died in an accident, and she was raised by her brother. Fortunately, although my brother is only seven years older than me, he is very strong and can already help work for the villagers and supplement the family income.
After that, they lived together with their elder brother. During the most difficult times, they had to rely on begging for a living. Although they lived in poverty, the two brothers and sisters lived happily.
This bronze ring was given to her by her brother for her birthday last year. It was her favorite toy. She also had a bronze mask, but her brother took it away.
Thinking of this, Ye Nannan put down her hands, pouted, and looked at the stars.
"Brother, where have you been? When will you come back to see my daughter?" the girl whispered a little aggrievedly.
That day, because my brother went to work in the town, he seemed to be so energetic at a young age and was noticed by an adult who happened to be passing by. After that, he was found to have a special constitution: the Holy Body, and he was to be forcibly taken away.
And I heard that the adult said that he would take his brother to the other side of the starry sky to practice.
At that time, no matter how much he and his brother cried, it was useless. In the end, they could only throw the bronze mask to the brother who was forcibly taken away, hoping that he could still remember Nannan.
"Brother, when will you come back? Wuwuwu~ Nannan is so hungry and tired!" The girl cried in grievance as she spoke.
When her brother is around, she doesn't have to think about anything. She just needs to clean the house, wash her clothes every day, and then wait for her brother to come back with food.
Wotou, rice balls, bran, steamed buns, candied haws, half fish, chicken skeletons... all kinds of delicious things.
When it was cold at night, her brother would hold her in his arms, which was very warm.
But now, her brother was suddenly taken away. If the uncles and aunts in the village didn't give her something from time to time, and she ate some leaves and bark, she would have starved to death.
Crying, the girl carefully put the ring into her arms, then held her stomach, her little face wrinkled up: "Brother, I'm so hungry!"
After complaining, Ye Nannan got up and searched carefully inside and outside the house to see if there was anything else to eat: cockroaches, mice, centipedes, and small snakes.
If that doesn't work, you can only go to the river outside the village to catch small fish and shrimps. But according to the old people in the village, there are treacherous waters in the river, and it is best for children not to get close.
Moreover, no matter you are hungry, small fish and shrimps are very fishy even if they are cooked. If you eat too much, you will easily get stomachaches and diarrhea.
"Little mice, little centipedes, little bugs, where are you?" Nannan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, shouted softly, and rummaged under the leaves and rocks outside the house very carefully.
"Meow meow~" A little yellow cat fell from the sky and appeared in front of her, looking lively, cute and delicate.
[What a coincidence. Are you my shit-sweeper? 】
Nannan's eyes lit up, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and her head straightened: "Yes, yes, yes, I am, come home with me!"
After saying that, Nannan stepped forward and hugged the little yellow cat, holding it close to her arms. She even looked around warily, thinking carefully about which house in the village had a cat.
All the way to the kitchen, the little girl nodded seriously. This cat was definitely not from the village, because the cats and dogs in the village hid away in fear when they saw her.
Maybe it was the last time they saw a mad dog bite them and then be bitten to death by themselves.
The little yellow cat was very satisfied as he clung to the shit-sweeper's arms and listened to the weak heartbeat.
This year's shit shovel officer is not bad, unlike the previous ones, when I saw him, I wanted to eat myself.
Kittens are so cute, good-looking, and adorable, how do they manage to eat them?
Too much!
"Pa~"
After a while, the little yellow cat was put into a stone basin, and then the scavenger was busy inside and outside, adding water to the stone basin, adding a lot of firewood under the stone basin, and finally even Add some leaves and flowers to the pot.
He also used some strange things to pat and massage the little yellow cat.
"Hoo, hoo~"
The little girl blew the firewood to light the firewood, and the water gradually became warmer. Then she squatted on the ground and looked expectantly at the stone basin. In the dark night, her eyes were as bright as stars.
The little yellow cat was lying on its back in the stone basin, opening its mouth and sticking out its tongue, feeling extremely comfortable.
When we met for the first time, the shit-sweeper gave him a bath and massage without saying a word.
So particular!
As for the posture that looks like stewed cat and is unsightly, that’s not a big problem. It’s obvious that this generation’s shit shoveling officers are not very good at it. They are dark and thin, and their families have no money.
After casually looking around, he even suspected that the most expensive thing in the whole house might be this stone basin, so this could be regarded as the highest standard bathing treat for him.
Moreover, if the cat was not really hungry, no one would bleed the stewed cat first and pluck and clean it first. Besides, if you are really hungry, who would bother cooking it instead of just eating it raw?
After thinking about it this way, this guy who shovels shit is really thoughtful!
"Kitten, kitten, why are you not yet familiar with it? My brother said that no matter what you eat, you must cook it before you eat it, so that you won't get sick."
The little girl was muttering as she added to the fire. She also held a stick in her hand, not knowing what it did.
Little Yellow Cat:? ? ?
An hour later.
The little girl was already dizzy, her big eyes flickering, looking at her stone pot in confusion.
During this period, she kept adding firewood, and the water boiled out several times. She kept adding water again, fearing that the taste would be weak, so she added a lot of seasonings, and her legs were sore from running back and forth.
But thinking that there would be delicious food soon, she finally persisted. However, when all the firewood and water at home were burned, why was the cat still swimming around calmly in the pot?
Is this reasonable?
Enduring hunger, dizziness, and stars in her eyes, Ye Nannan looked at the stone pot up and down, and then looked at the cat who still looked leisurely and calm. With a quick thought of her little brain, she was finally sure of one thing: the pot was broken!
Change the pot!
Thinking of this, the smart Ye Nannan did not hesitate, stretched out her two dark rough little hands, grabbed both ends of the stone pot without hesitation, and then.
"Wow!"
A sharp scream and cry suddenly echoed throughout the village.
Miao Le:.
It seems like this year’s shit shovelers are a little less smart!
"Bang~"
The door of the small thatched house was suddenly pushed open, and a tall and strong daughter, Aunt Ye, stood at the door.
When Ye Feng was forcibly taken away that day, the only thing he couldn't bear to leave was his sister, so he asked the villagers to take care of Ye Nannan.
At that time, no one thought that this little guy actually had the qualifications to practice, and could even be favored by the aloof Yuhua Dynasty.
Then in a few years, wouldn't Ye Feng be at least the master of a city or even a country when he comes back?
So at that time, the villagers cared for the little girl in every possible way, and allowed her to eat and have fun. However, after this continued for a while, they found that the big shots had never cared about the little girl. The villagers seemed to understand something and stopped. How much thought goes into it.
There is only Aunt Ye. Although the family is also very difficult, her parents and elders are all here, and her son and daughter are not very old. In order to supplement some nutrition for her children and elders, she can only eat thin whole grains twice a day.
But she still comes over every day or two to take care of her and bring a little food, sometimes even meaty food.
One is that the little girl is really pitiful. She is only three years old and has no father or mother. Her only brother was taken away. She is well-behaved and sensible.
The other, of course, is that she still has some small expectations in her heart.
Although now it seems that the adults above know what Ye Feng was taken away for, and there is almost no chance of survival, so they ignore Ye Feng's only sister.
But what if?
Ye Feng has been so powerful since he was a child. If he really becomes a high-ranking figure, standing in the clouds, wouldn't one of his own family be able to achieve enlightenment, and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven?
"Little girl, what's wrong?"
Aunt Ye held the little girl Ye Nannan sitting on the straw mat in her arms, and gently stroked her hair with her rough hands, her face full of concern and nervousness.
Seemingly finding support, Ye Nannan started to cry loudly, tears streaming down her face.
"Wow, auntie, I was bullied by a kitten!"
As she said that, the little girl pointed at the little yellow cat in the stone basin who was playing with its tail out of boredom. Filled with indignation, she then spread out her two little hands, which were already red with heat and even had a big blister on one side.
Looking along the little girl's fingers, Aunt Ye's face gradually became serious.
The water has been boiled, but the little yellow cat is still so leisurely. In this case, there is only one possibility: monster!
But all monsters must have supernatural powers. Some of them are so powerful that the whole village may be slaughtered. Back then, Nannan's parents were eaten alive by a monster that happened to pass by.
Thinking of this, Aunt Ye quickly turned around and prepared to run away.
Regardless of whether this monster is powerful or not, it is not something a mortal like her can deal with.
"Meow~"
Her heart sank when the little yellow cat appeared in her arms at some unknown moment, looking at each other with her little girl on the left and right.
From such a close distance, Aunt Ye could really see what the monster looked like.
This is a delicate and cute little kitten with bright fur, as if it has been illuminated by the sun. His body is small and exquisite, his limbs are flexible, and his young body is so soft that people can't help but want to touch it when they see it.
The head is round and the ears are pointed, like two small leaves. Its eyes are big, like two crystal clear sapphires, very energetic.
Could such a cute little guy harm anyone? A big question suddenly appeared in Aunt Ye's mind.
"Ah, help, aunt, he is going to eat me!" Ye Nannan suddenly shouted nervously, closed her eyes, and then tried to push the little yellow cat away with both hands.
"Suck~"
Miao Le didn't take it seriously. Instead, he licked his two little hands twice, then jumped on the aunt's shoulders and combed his hair with his paws.
As a noble king, it is natural to keep his hair neat and shiny at all times.
"Ahhhh~"
After screaming for a while, Ye Nannan realized something was wrong. She slowly opened her eyes and raised her little hand. She was surprised to find that there was no pain anymore, and the wound was back to normal, and her little hand was even whiter than before.
Aunt Ye's heart was shaken, and she came up with an extremely bold idea: raising monsters!
She remembered one night before, when the host said afterwards that she was tired and in a bad state, that's why she fell asleep so quickly, so she told a story tonight to pass the time.
Thousands of miles away from Yejia Village, there is a village called Mang Village in the south. Their village has a huge python.
The python was extremely huge, with a body as thick as four people's arms. It was invulnerable and powerful. It also had some special magical powers: for example, it screamed very loudly, could eat, and would actively go out to capture prey to defend against other monsters attacking the village.
In this way, there will no longer be a threat from monsters within a hundred miles of the village. The villagers can safely and boldly grow various kinds of food, and the big shots in the towns will not dare to collect taxes arbitrarily.
The second choice for girls from other villages to choose a husband is Mang Village. The first choice is of course to become a city dweller. In just over ten years, Namang Village has become one of the largest villages within a hundred miles.
Even when the village chief of Mang Village goes to the city, all the wealthy families are rushing to entertain him.
This is called a decent person!
And this little kitten, with its young body and cute demeanor, did not even harm the little girl Nannan. It looked like a newly born little monster.
This kind of little monster is also the easiest to raise. As long as it is well trained, it will become a family when it grows up.
Moreover, although it is said that monsters can eat, this little guy is only so big, how much can he eat? With the combined efforts of the entire village, can’t we afford it?
As for whether other villagers would agree to feeding, she didn't think it was a big problem.
Although I don’t know what other special abilities this little yellow cat has, the ability to heal wounds with just a lick can make Yejiacun become a super village in the future!
There is of course a reason for letting the villagers raise them together instead of raising them as a single family. Because such a mythical beast cannot be saved by one household at all.
Now that she had made up her mind, Aunt Ye quickly hugged the little girl and ran to the village chief's house with the little yellow cat on her shoulders.
Yejiacun is about to rise!
…
