Features: The content of this book: Back then, I was still quite skilled. Although I was thin like a small black dog, my brain was sharp. I could make a toy gun out of wire and a bicycle chain. I'd stuff a match head inside and pull the trigger, and it would make a crisp, pleasant sound, just like a real one. I thought real guns might be similar to this one. I could also tie a live knot with a single hair from an ox's tail and use it to catch cicadas on a bamboo stick, hitting them every time. We'd roast these cicadas in the fire, and the aroma would fill the air, drifting into our nostrils, making us unable to resist sniffing, and then our mouths would water.
