Chapter 3: The Mysterious Visitor

Erhei felt that the scarecrow looked at him like a hunter looking at a prey trapped in a trap......

The whites of the scarecrow's eyes widened at the boss, and he looked at him motionlessly. The two sides faced off in this dark night.

One hideous, the other cringe.

One in the air and one on the ground.

Suddenly, at the moment when Erhei was in a panic, the scarecrow flying in mid-air swooped towards Erhei in an extremely strange posture, Erhei couldn't react for a while, he instinctively retracted his neck and held his head with his hands, thinking that he would die this time, but he didn't feel the pain, but his legs were numb and itchy. He looked down and saw that the scarecrow was leaning over and biting his thigh with his mouth wide open.

The scarecrow doesn't have a mouth, and if it does, it's just a hole cut out of the straw bundle.

At this moment, this hole happened to be stuck in Erhei's thigh, and at first glance, it looked like a scarecrow was biting him.

Erhei's heart was numb, and he felt that even the bones were crispy all over his body. His head exploded with a "bang", and he couldn't care much more, gritting his teeth and grabbing a large handful of straw on its head and pulling it out......

The scarecrow's head was ripped off by Erhei, but his hands were still holding Erhei's thighs desperately and refusing to relax, many straws flew up in mid-air, and a strong smell of dead grass accompanied by a faint fishy smell in the air instantly diffused.

Blood was bubbling out of the grass, splashing black and black. The grass body fell to the ground with a bang, and Erhei raised his hand to shake the straw head vigorously, then turned around and ran to the house with a rolling belt.

But he couldn't find his way home.

The road that I had walked countless times had changed, and all I saw in front of me were straws, all of which were floating in the air, floating up and down, sometimes "brushing" the ground, and many straws were squeezed together to form a strange scarecrow shape, and then "brushed" and scattered in the air. There are also a lot of straws that keep hitting Erhei's body.

Erhei dodged in a panic, and those straws were like sharp swords, threatening to pierce his body at any moment.

"Erhei ......" had a voice calling him, but it sounded eerie. Maybe it's the soul that is looking for the ghost of the dead to call the soul, Erhei closed his mouth tightly and didn't dare to answer.

"Erhei ......" The voice sounded again. The voice was fluttering and leisurely, with a hint of weirdness.

Erhei carefully identified the source of the sound, and with such a distraction, a straw swooped down towards Erhei in mid-air.

The straw pierced his hand with a whistling sound like a sharp arrow that broke through the air.

Erhei didn't have time to react, he only felt a sharp pain on the back of his hand.

He suddenly felt as if his whole body was in pain, and then he screamed, and then woke up with his eyes open.

Erhei sat on a wooden bed that "creaked" in a flash, he glanced at the thick straw under the broken sheets, and then remembered that he was going to go to the east of the village to steal sweet potatoes last night, why did he fall asleep in a daze?

"Are you having a nightmare?" A voice suddenly sounded in his ears, Erhei was suddenly startled, he hurriedly followed the sound to look over, only to see a pair of eyes wide open, staring at him without blinking, less than half a meter away from him.

Suddenly, there was a flash of doubt in these eyes, but only for a moment.

Erhei tried to look away a little, and when he continued to look down, he saw that someone was pinching the back of his hand fiercely.

It's just such a pinch, it's no wonder that it doesn't hurt!

It turned out to be just a nightmare! Erhei sighed softly, ready to put his mind at ease. At this time, he suddenly turned his head to look at the owner of this hand, and the heart that had just been put down suddenly hung high again: Where did this person come from? Erhei panicked in his heart, instinctively leaned back, only to hear a "bang" sound, Erhei's head hit the wooden bed without pillows, heavy and crisp.

"......Sizzle" Erhei snorted softly, and rolled off the bed with grinning teeth, at this time the knock on the door sounded in time, and Uncle Liu, who was opposite the door, shouted Erhei and two voices outside the door, and the door was pushed open with a "creak".

Sunlight poured in through the crack in the door, and the sunlight was just right outside.

"Comrade, have you found it?" Uncle Liu stood at the door, but the question was not Erhei. His eyes turned out to be the person standing next to Erhei, but he saw that the girl who pinched the back of his hand just now hurriedly nodded to the door and said, "I found it, thank you, uncle." ”

What's going on? Could it be that the two of them know each other? Erhei was a little confused.

"It's good to find it. After Uncle Liu said this, he retreated, and didn't forget to close the door before leaving.

Sunlight is kept out by the door panels.

Erhei turned his head and looked at the girl carefully: her hair was waist-high, she was wearing two braids, and she was wearing a small floral bragi dress with a belt of the same color around her waist, and it was not obvious what kind of fabric it was, but it looked particularly good on her body. Erhei couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

This girl doesn't look like a bad person.

The girl looked back at Erhei and asked him, "Are you Erhei?"

Erhei looked at her for a long time before hesitantly asking her, "Who are you?"

"I finally found you!" the girl suddenly smiled: "I'm a little sister." ”

"Little sister?" Erhei looked at her suspiciously, who is the little sister?

The little sister nodded and said, "Yes, do you know the ...... on the Aquarius Mountain before?"

"Aquarius Mountain?" Erhei was startled. Since the battle of Aquarius, the Sichuan army has renamed Aquarius Mountain as Yuping Mountain, and Erhei's father was even more secretive about moving his family away from Aquarius when he was alive, and the things on Aquarius Mountain were rarely mentioned. This girl looks young, how does she know about Aquarius, and how much does she know?

The girl who called herself the little sister smiled slightly: "What are you nervous about? You're a big man, aren't you as brave as me?"

Erhei was silent.

The little sister glanced at Erhei and continued to ask, "Do you know Li Lao Wu?"

Erhei really heard his father mention a person named Li Lao Wu, since Erhei can remember, his father and son have depended on each other, Erhei's father rarely mentions the past, but this Li Lao Wu is an exception. Although it is an exception, Erhei doesn't know much information, he just knows that this Li Lao Wu is an orphan, and he has followed Erhei's grandfather to fight in the green forest since he was a child, and it is said that he was his grandfather's right-hand man.

The father and son trusted this Li Lao Wu very much, and Grandpa Erhei also valued him very much when he was alive. But after that battle, there was no more whereabouts of the man. How did this person know about Li Lao Wu?
