Raising Gu Notes

Looking at the messy toilet and the empty fish tank, Xie Lin couldn't help but feel like crying.

After standing blankly for a while, he sighed a long time, turned around and cleaned up the toilet.

The big mouse caught in the mousetrap was already dying. When Schelling released it from the mousetrap, it only convulsed for a while, and then died completely.

Xie Lin was a little strange, wondering why the mouse appeared in the toilet, and wondered if the mouse also got up through the sewer pipe.

And was this mouse just unlucky, happened to be a scapegoat, or was it driven by that little monster to serve as a vanguard for that little monster to break the trap?

It's just that now Schelling can't get a clear answer.

It's a pity that this mouse came out of the toilet, otherwise it could be used to stew a pot of good meat. Seeing this fat big mouse, Xie Lin felt a little regretful.

He found a plastic bag, put the dead mouse, the stickers and the fish offal, ran downstairs, threw it into the trash can, and then went back to the dormitory to collect the mousetrap , Flushed and cleaned the toilet well, then went back to bed and continued to sleep.

Not long after, it was broad daylight, and Xie Lin, who hadn't slept much, got up, washed up, picked up his schoolbag, and went out.

After leaving the dormitory building, he bought two steamed buns in the nearby cafeteria, and ate them all the way to the library with the boiled water he brought.

After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, I finally arrived at the library. The outside of the library was already crowded with students.Although it is summer vacation, there are tens of thousands of students in the whole school. Even if the proportion of them staying in school is very low, the total number is still quite a lot.For most of the students who stay in school, the reason why they stay in school is not to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination, or to prepare for the civil service exam, or to prepare for various foreign language exams required to go abroad. When it is hot, the cool and comfortable library with strong air conditioning is naturally the best place to study.

However, unlike most students, the reason why Schelling came to the library was not to prepare for any exams, but because he was working part-time in the library.

After his father left inexplicably when he was eight years old, Xie Lin, who was no different from an orphan, stayed in the small town called Xie's House.Most of the people in Xie Zhai Town have the surname Xie. It is said that they are descendants of the famous Xie family in the Six Dynasties. However, it has been more than 1000 years since the Six Dynasties, and the so-called famous families have long since disappeared.

After Schelling stayed in the small town for a few months, a lonely old man in the town took him in because he felt sorry for him, and it was the old man who gave him the name Schelling.During the years of wandering with his father, Xie Lin never had an official name. When his father called him, he only used the word "hello".

Schelling also asked his father what his name was, but his father said he had never given him a name, so he asked his father to give him a name, but his father said he didn't need a name.

Until now, Schelling still has trouble understanding why his father didn't even choose a name for himself.Sometimes he even wondered if he would be similar to the bastard in "Xia Ke Xing". His alcoholic father was not his real father, so he was not even given a name.

On the day when she was taken in by the old man and named again, Xie Lin, who seldom cried, hid under the covers and cried for an entire hour.

I have a name, I have a name!He kept muttering in his heart, mixed with sorrow and joy.

The old man's name is Xie Anping, but people in Xie Zhai Town usually call him the old man of medicine, because the old man makes a living by collecting herbs all year round.His wife died early and had no children. He is kind-hearted and loves Xie Lin very much, treating Xie Lin as his own grandson.The reason why the old man took Xie Lin in regardless of his old age was because he accidentally heard that Xie Lin was abandoned by his father and became an orphan, and he felt sympathetic.

The old man also let Xie Lin go to school. On weekends, Xie Lin would go to the mountains with the old man to collect herbs.During the years of being dependent on the old man, although life was hard, it was the happiest and happiest years for Xie Lin, because he felt the warmth of home for the first time.

It's just that such days only lasted for a few short years. Not long after Xie Lin graduated from elementary school, the old man in his 80s passed away, and Xie Lin became an orphan again.

That year, Schelling was 13 years old.

The old man lived in poverty all his life, and only left Xie Lin with a dilapidated old house after his death.

However, during the few years of being dependent on the old man, Xie Lin also learned more things. He learned love, gratitude, optimism and open-mindedness, and his resentment towards his father who abandoned him has also faded a lot.

After the old man passed away, Xie Lin took up the burden of life alone. Relying on the little medicine picking skills he learned from the old man and the support of some kind-hearted people in the town, he finished junior high school and high school, and was admitted to the current university. University.

But because the university school is in the provincial capital, Xie Lin can't go to the mountains to collect medicine to make money as soon as school is over, so he can only work and study in school.And although during the summer vacation, if he goes back to Xie Zhai Town to collect herbs, he should earn more than the work-study opportunity, but in this way, the work-study opportunity will be given to others. After thinking about it again and again, I simply stayed in school during the summer vacation.

Seeing Xie Lin, many students also greeted Xie Lin.Many students who often come to the library know this thin and thin classmate who is always quiet and polite. In order to see Xie Lin's slightly shy and embarrassed look after hearing this address.

"Hello, hello..." Xie Lin nodded and greeted them one by one, with a slight smile on his face.

After a while, several teachers, security guards, and several students who were working in the library also came one after another. At 08:30, a teacher opened the door of the library, and the students also rushed in.

……

After a busy day, at ten o'clock in the evening, Schelling left the library.

When he got outside the dormitory, he saw someone selling pets, including turtles, hamsters, rabbits, and of course goldfish.

Schelling looked at it briefly, but walked over anyway.

Originally, he also planned to buy a few more goldfish, but now he is alone in the dormitory, raising a few goldfish can more or less add vitality to the room, but thinking about what happened in the past two days, he still gave up this idea.

Forget it, if I buy it again, I'm afraid it will go into the stomach of that little monster.

Xie Lin had some doubts that the little fish-stealing thing might be some kind of mouse spirit or cat monster, that's why it was so powerful.

Xie Lin is also giving up now, with the means of that little monster, even if Xie Lin defends day and night, it only needs to deal with Xie Linha with one breath.

Can't afford it!

Schelling didn't want to smell that stink again.

Now that there are no fish in the dormitory, the little monster shouldn't come again?

But when he returned to the dormitory, when Xie Lin opened the door, he couldn't help being dumbfounded.

He saw that the fish tank on the small square table fell to the ground and fell to pieces.

The water in the fish tank also flowed all over the floor.

Xie Lin walked over to look at the window, but found that the window was tightly closed, so even if the wind was strong outside, it was impossible to blow the fish tank to the ground.

Is it...

Just as Xie Lin thought about it, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from behind the small square table.

It turned out to be the little monster that stole the fish.

Xie Lin couldn't help being startled, and took two steps back.

The little monster looked at Xie Lin, and then jumped up and down in front of Xie Lin.

It raised one foot, kicked the broken glass of a fish tank next to it, then raised its head towards Xie Lin, grinned, and stared at Xie Lin, seeming a little angry.

Xie Lin felt his scalp tingling, thinking that something was wrong, the little monster was obviously angry when he saw that there were no fish in the fish tank, and dropped the fish tank.

But why?

After thinking about it, Xie Lin also became a little angry.Is it reasonable to be a thief?

Go! Go! Go!Find something else to eat!

Xie Lin waved his hand and said viciously.

But the little monster wasn't afraid at all, instead it jumped towards Schelling, and opened its mouth wide as if to breathe out.

Schelling covered his nose in fright, and took a few steps back.

Fortunately, the little monster stopped again, and didn't really breathe out.

"What do you want to do?" Xie Lin put down his hands, looking a little helpless, "Now that you have eaten all the goldfish, what do you want? I don't have anything to eat here."

The little monster shook his head, as if he didn't believe Xie Lin.Then it pouted at Schelling again, then raised one of its front paws, pointed to Schelling's pocket, and then pointed out the window.

"You... want me to buy it?" Xie Lin hesitated with a look of surprise.

The little monster nodded.

Xie Lin couldn't help but took a breath, shocked in his heart.

The little monster pursed its lips again, its eyes widened, and it seemed a little impatient.

"I don't have any money!" But Xie Lin got angry and played bachelor, "If you want to eat, buy it yourself!"

No reason, all thieves have become robbers.

The little monster suddenly grinned, with a smile-like expression on his face, and bounced to Xie Lin's feet.

Afterwards, it opened its mouth wide, and spit out two one-dollar pieces of steel from its mouth, then pointed out the window, and pouted at Sherin.

Xie Lin was completely stupid there.
