Chapter 6: The Late Night River Monster

The meandering creek meanders and flows into the river.

The rushing river bluffed and hurried into the river.

The calm undercurrent of the river is surging, and it is running steadily towards the sea.

All rivers will eventually return to the sea, but the small splash in the mountains will take a long time before they will miss how worthy of nostalgia is for the beautiful spring in the mountains. The torrent of life is rolling, and fate is up and down in it. Maybe one day, those things that flicker and disappear will tell the origin of all this.

The nameless stream on Meishan is very quiet in the night, and the sight of the fire in the distance can not make it stay, the firelight is getting farther and farther away, and gradually disappears from view, a large school of fish swims around the aquatic plants that flow downstream, the moat at midnight is sparkling in the moonlight, and under the street lamps along the river, the sleepless life has its own thoughts.

The bar, which is less than 1 kilometer away from the riverfront, is lively at the moment, one climax after another. The drunken man's eyes began to blur, the beat of the drums in the powerful music became faster and faster, and the girl in the short skirt and stockings began to dance the last dance of the night. From the high heels to the girl's red lips, every detail was carefully chewed and savored by the guests, who greedily took a big sip of wine and then said something out loud to the people around them. The laser lights illuminate everyone in a colorful space, and the smell of alcohol, the smell of cigarettes, the unique smell of perfume diluted by sweat, and even the smell of invisible hormones mingle in the air.......

Xiao Li on the stage properly grabbed every drum beat, and then threw it out through the twisting of the body, and the men were so excited that they gulped down another glass. The bar manager watched the sales performance at the bar, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy. At the end of the dance, there was a commotion in the audience, and whistles and cheers rang out.

"Dancing girls are also a profession", Xiao Li, who once dreamed of being a star and participated in many drafts and was eliminated, thought so. Either way, she's the main character on the stage here, and she's enjoying being here without the nervous frustration of the contestants. It's just that she doesn't have much interest in staying any longer, and she doesn't have much interest in accepting an invitation from a man for a drink. If it weren't for the bar manager's diligence and an extra 2,000 yuan in red envelopes, she wouldn't have dragged her feverish body to finish the last song.

Money is a good thing, Xiao Li always likes to say that she is a layman.

"Xiao Li, it's really sassy, today is a new high in performance!"

The bar manager smiled at Xiao Li, who had just finished changing her clothes and walked out of the room.

"Get out, don't forget the red envelope!" Xiao Li gave the manager a middle finger.

The DJ began another warm-up activity, the music vibrating everyone's eardrums and nerves, and Xiao Li was now so weak and exhausted that she could barely hear what she said.

The bar manager, of course, understood what he meant, and replied loudly:

"I can't forget it, hit your card! ”

Xiao Li didn't reply, and walked straight out of the wine.

The bar manager did not receive a reply and looked displeased. Talking to himself:

"Just a fucking bitch who loves money, I'm angry, I'm going to have to get you another day. ”

Xiao Li walked out of the bar, took out her cigarette case, and shook out a cigarette.

"Sister Li, get off work early enough today" The security guard ran over and took out a lighter to help Xiao Li light a cigarette and accosted him.

"Well, I'm not feeling well today, go back early. Xiao Li looked at the security guard and continued: "Xiaolu, you haven't been gambling recently, have you?"

"No, I still dare, if you didn't lend me the 5,000 yuan, my hands would be chopped off!"

"That's good, tell my sister something, I'm leaving. ”

"Sister, shall I call you a car?"

"No need, a few steps, I'm home after smoking a cigarette, you're busy. ”

"That's okay, Sister Li, slow down. The security guard who called Xiaolu clenched the mobile phone in his pocket and looked at Xiao Li's back as she left uneasily.

Xiao Li lives on the other side of the river, not far from Daji's bar, which is a company-equipped apartment dormitory. Walk a few hundred metres along the riverside promenade through the underpass and up the bridge via the escalator, where Xiao Li's residence is located across the river, and the bar on the other side of the river is clear from the apartment.

Today is at least two hours earlier than usual, and on weekdays I am with the little sisters who live in the same apartment, and I still feel lonely when I walk alone today, just such a short distance, just walk quickly. Xiao Li threw away the cigarette butt and quickened her pace.

The vegetation by the river was lush, because the riverside promenade was much lower than the main road, so the lights could hardly shine here, and by the moonlight, Xiao Li saw two people walking towards her.

The instinctive reaction was to turn around and retreat, and then return to the bar, and the moment Xiao Li turned around, the two people in the darkness quickened their pace and pounced at once, followed by a cold dagger against Xiao Li's waist.

"Don't make a sound, I'm stabbing you to death, throwing it in the river to feed the fish!"

The taller thinner man turned around and covered Xiao Li's mouth with his hand, and the fat man put a dagger against Xiao Li's waist and said.

Xiao Li was gagged by the tall and thin man as soon as she shouted twice, and at this moment her legs were trembling and her whole body was like chaff.

The music in the bar not far away can still be heard, and it only takes a few minutes to run back. Xiao Li was so helpless at the moment, she began to regret it, regretted her decision all day today, and even began to regret why she was greedy for the 2,000 yuan red envelope. Now it's about to take your fate.

"Fatty, is this girl rich, she looks like a young lady. The tall and thin man said.

The fat man said with a wicked smile:

"You know the, this is the number one dancer in Daji's bar, and if you want to have a drink with her, it will cost 800 yuan. ”

The fat man lowered his voice and said to the thin man: "The gambling money last time was not as good as that kid said, this girl has at least hundreds of thousands of dollars in his hand." We're going to have to make her throw it all up today, and then we'll just"

The fat man was behind Xiao Li's back, his left hand made a killing gesture, and the two of them exchanged glances and made a cruel smile.

Xiao Li didn't hear what they were saying, and her gagged mouth couldn't make a sound. Tears flowed.

"God, God, Lord, what a miserable life I have. Who will save me, I will give you everything, I promise to make you a cow and a horse for the rest of my life, let me do anything, save me" Xiao Li thought to herself, tears flowed uncontrollably.

In Ji Han's dream, everything was full of life, and the dean brought him food to eat, and then told him a lot of words. He didn't want to pay attention to the dean, he felt that he was too hungry and just wanted to eat well. The dean's face changed, he said strange things, and pushed himself into the water......

Ji Han heard two screams, which were a bit like a bird being frightened, and it was different from the voice of everyone in the villa. Suddenly, Ji Han woke up from his dream.

The wet Ji Han was by the river, like a mourning dog, a mourning dog that had been soaked in water and his whole body was covered with aquatic plants.

Before Ji Han had time to look at the surrounding situation, he saw three people walking over from the opposite side, and the strange three people walked over as if they were playing some game, and two people walked over with a woman in their arms.

Ji Han has only seen women in the books treasured by the dean, and in the past few years, the dean has taken the trouble to tell Ji Han that he should find a woman to marry or something. But the real living person, the living woman Ji Han is still seeing it for the first time.

The people on the other side got closer and closer, and Ji Han, who was dressed in water and grass, was hungry at this time, stood up suddenly, and said to the three people: "I'm hungry, what about the dean, do you have anything to eat?"

If life could be chosen again, Xiao Li would no longer choose to walk out of the bar alone in advance and walk through this dark riverside road, at this time, thin and tall people and fat people would also have this thought.

A monster covered with water and grass suddenly appeared, and the tall and thin man and the fat man focused all their attention on Xiao Li's body, and they didn't know where this monster came from, and the two of them screamed in fright.

Xiao Li, who had a high fever, was already dying of fright after being kidnapped, and suddenly saw this monster appear, Xiao Li's body was weak and fainted directly.

At the same time as Xiao Li fell, the frightened fat man instinctively burst out, holding the dagger and stabbing at the monster covered with water and grass, and the thin and tall man sat on the ground.

When the fat man's dagger stabbed over, Ji Han didn't hide, and he hadn't figured out the situation yet. It would take a long time for Ji Han to see clearly in an instant, dozens of cold weapons were slashing at him at the same time, and then easily dodging. But at this moment, Ji Han took another step forward, and Humpty Dumpty's dagger was impartial and inserted into Ji Han's arm.

Ji Han, who was dressed in wet water and weeds, didn't notice the dagger on his arm, and Mu Ne's dead fish eyes looked dullly at the face of the fat man. Humpty Dumpty was stunned for a moment, looking at the monster after being stabbed by himself, without the slightest reaction, the pair of dead fish eyes in the moonlight stared at him blankly.

This scene appears every night after Humpty Dumpty, in a horrible nightmare, in which the monster keeps saying, I'm hungry, I'm hungry. The fat man couldn't remember how he escaped, and when he returned home, he found that his right leg had been cut with a long cut, and he couldn't remember if it was the work of a monster.

Two months later, the fat man was admitted to the main hospital of Meishan Psychiatric Hospital, and the monster who was stabbed with a knife in the face and shouted that I was hungry became his lifelong nightmare, and the thin and tall man also chose to turn himself in three months later and confessed everything, which was later.

It all happened so quickly that in the blink of an eye, two of the three had run, and the remaining one was still lying on the ground with an extra dagger on his arm. Ji Han's whole body has undergone too many instrument interventions, and there is almost no pain in his arm at this time. But the hunger pangs were real, and he didn't know where to go, or why the Dean wasn't with him now. He crouched down and took Xiao Li's hand. Every time Dean Laifo looked at Ji Han who was trembling after the experiment, he would hold his hand and couldn't help but shed tears, Ji Han didn't know why at this moment, holding Xiao Li's hand and tears kept flowing.

The city of Pitou under the moon is quiet, and in a few hours, the sun will rise. Life is sometimes too boring and sounds boring day in and day out. It really takes disaster to understand how wonderful those boring days were.

Ji Han was a little sleepy, the arms were still bleeding, and the sleepy eyes slowly blurred......
