Chapter 179: Mengxi (4)

"What about Mengxi, does he know what he did afterwards?"

After listening to what Xiao Jiu said, my shocked expression couldn't come back to my senses for a long time!

But when I thought of what Meng Xi had said, that the bottom of the lake was a swamp of dead people, I couldn't help but wonder again!

If the bottom of the lake is really a swamp of dead people, then how did Mengxi know about it?

And what is the green thing floating on the surface of the lake, why did Meng Xi warn everyone not to go into the lake?

When I was still thinking about these questions, I only heard Xiao Jiu say at this time!

"Hey, Brother Fang, since then, everyone found that there was no more trouble at the bottom of the lake, except for the people in Zhuqing Village, the people at the other end of the market began to alienate Grandpa Meng, and they all said that Grandpa Meng was a liar, and Grandpa Meng's reputation at that time also plummeted, and Grandpa Meng never said anything about the Dead Man's Swamp."

"So you and you Fei both think that the reason for the capsizing of the boat in the big lake this time is because of the dead man's swamp under the big lake?"

"Yes, the flood disaster that year caused many people, and the corpses rushed into the big lake, how can you say that the stagnant water can become clear later, and there are big live fish? If you want me to say, it was the stagnant water that absorbed the nutrients of the corpse, and because the corpse had sunk to the bottom of the dark lake for many years, it became resentful and turned into a water ghost to harm everyone. ”

Advertise, the app I've been using recently, Android and Apple phones are all supported!

I smiled incredulously: "Where do you think this, Meng Xi told you?" ”

"Hehe, I guessed, but it's definitely so!"

Xiao Jiu touched his head embarrassedly, thinking that I was praising him, he said casually: "And didn't Grandpa Meng also say that the corpses in the dead man's swamp need to pull the living to replace them, so those corpses are not water ghosts?" ”

I shook my head, not agreeing with Xiao Jiu's words, nor refuting him.

I think that the bizarre phenomenon that occurred in this big lake, maybe Meng Xi is the one who really knows or understands, and this may also be related to his warning to everyone not to go to the lake.

Either way, it's not for me to worry about!

A few days later, the news of the lake god's power spread completely, and the fishermen began to run out of food.

In this case, the fishermen are worried about another accident, so they can only wait for the next person to go down to the lake, so as to break the rumor that the water ghosts in the swamp of the dead are pulling the living!

This evening

, Xiao Jiu had nothing to do, and took me to Fan Youfei's house as a guest, and I also saw this strong young man again.

is different from Xiao Jiu's natural playfulness and verbosity, and it is not that this person gives me a feeling of a calm big boy in a hardworking family, which may be related to his living environment.

It's not a young year, twenty-three years old, and there is a father with paralyzed legs at home, and an old lady who falls ill every once in a while.

And below him, there is a younger brother and sister.

In the early years, because of poverty, this younger brother and sister were born late, the younger brother was thirteen years younger than Youfei, and the younger sister was ten years younger than Youfei, so the burden of the family fell on Youfei!

At this time, when he came to Youfei's house, he brought me and Xiao Jiuyi a bowl of hot water.

Xiao Jiu is not very familiar with him, he doesn't have the appearance of a guest, and at this time he is playing with his younger brothers and sisters and two children, and the three of them are having fun!

Father Fei lay on the bed, coughing from time to time, and his wife went to work in the field, but because of her illness, his mother couldn't work for long, and often came back in an hour and a half an hour, and you didn't take over.

At this moment, you Fei is chopping wood outside the house, picking up dry branches and tying them into bundles, sweating hard for daily life.

In the middle of boredom, I sat in the house and did nothing to come outside, and looked at Youfei, who was still chopping firewood, and I came to his side!

"Brother Fang, don't you sit in the house, the sun outside is very hot."

I didn't know about falling into the stream and losing my memory, I heard Xiao Jiu call me my eldest brother, and I didn't learn Xiao Jiu to call me like this.

"It's okay, the sun is where men work."

I smiled, saw the dry firewood tied up, looked at the same smile and asked, "How long has Uncle been like that, can't he be cured?" ”

"It can't be cured, in the early years, my father went to the mountains to hunt and fell from his waist, although his life was saved, his foot fell into trouble."

He said to me in a bland way, to be honest, I still feel sorry for this big boy!

In such a living situation, facing his father's disability, his mother's illness, and two young siblings, this eldest boy did not compromise with life, but lived a good life with his family.

I can't imagine what it's like to be in the deepest part of my heart!

"Hehe, Brother Fang, what about you

Is there anyone in the family? ”

It's not like he's used to it, or rather, because it's his family, and he can't change anything.

The only thing you can do is to live well with this family, and the rest is up to God!

I nodded, I didn't expect to be quite optimistic, and when I saw him ask me questions, I subconsciously just wanted to speak.

It's just that at the moment of speaking, I suddenly realized something, looked at it in surprise, and changed my words.

"It's not that you don't know that Brother Fang has lost his memory, how can he still remember the past."

It wasn't unintentional that scared me into a cold sweat, and in the face of my answer, he just looked at me with a smile!

This made me suddenly feel that what was in front of me was a little different, and I couldn't tell if he was unintentional or deliberately tricked me.

But he is definitely a reserved and calm person, and I am starting to lose sight of him!

Fei Fei still didn't speak, smiled, and when he heard my answer, he silently chopped the dry wood and stopped talking.

Just when I felt that the two of them were about to fall into silence, then his sick old lady returned.

His wife was carrying a basket of hay on her back, and when she saw this, she hurriedly greeted him and took his mother's basket into her hand!

I also saw her for the first time, under the introduction of Youfei, his wife greeted me with a smile, and I hurriedly greeted her with a smile.

"You kid, how can you let the guests help you work outside the house, come on, come in and sit down, what about Xiao Jiu's child?"

The old lady scolded his son a few words, and I was very embarrassed to see this.

In this regard, I hurriedly said that I had nothing to do, so I came out to chat with Youfei for a few words, but as soon as I spoke, I saw you back!

While talking, we have entered the house, just at this time Xiao Jiu and the two children were playing in the house, seeing us come in, happily walked over, pointed to the things on the small wooden table and smiled.

"Auntie, come and try this dried fruit, I just begged for some at Grandpa Meng two days ago, and I was reluctant to eat it, so I brought it over to my younger brothers and sisters to eat, Lao Fan, you can try it too!"

Xiao Jiu was talking about the walnuts he took from Meng Sina last time, and the girl from the water grass glared at him dissatisfied.

And this walnut Xiao Jiu has also tasted a few for me, but they call walnuts dried fruits here.
