Chapter Fifty-Eight: Exploring the East Pimple
On the third day after everyone left, according to the funeral rules in the village, the round grave was regarded as the final part of saying goodbye to the deceased, and after that, the first seven and even the most important relatives could no longer participate.
After finishing the round grave, Jiang Yao can say goodbye to Shaozhuang and return to the university, and he can also hide away from the dangerous person Shaogong Wang in the mouth of the second grandmother.
As the three highs said, Shaogong Wang, who had suffered heavy losses, really did not reappear, and the three days passed peacefully, and the family relatives also kept silent about the horrific past of that day. It's just that when it was a round tomb again, the originally prosperous family was just a few close relatives.
The two trucks that were originally planned were only used at this time, and the first round grave this year was just a formality, and the small number of people did not work.
Strange to say, a car of people walked halfway to the road, and it seemed that it would take less than 20 minutes to reach the grave, but the car broke down in the middle of the road.
"Yaozi, go back and call someone to fix it, don't delay it for too long." The father looked at the old men in the car, and he also aroused Jiang Yao.
Jiang Yao rode the broken bicycle thrown from the car by his uncle and rushed to the village in a hurry. But then I thought about it, isn't this tomb the junction of Shaozhuang and Jiangcun? Why don't you go closer to Jiang Village?
Jiang Yao's mind turned, and he walked in the direction of Jiang Village. I thought that Jiang Village would be easy to walk, but when I got to the East Pimple, I realized that I had done something wrong with good intentions.
If there is a small ditch on the side of the brick road, there is nothing to be afraid of, but this is the east pimple that drowns people every summer, and when he rides the bike, Jiang Yao is extra careful.
The brick road is not spacious, so only a small car can pass alone, and even if the two cars meet, one has to withdraw dozens of meters to the only wrong parking space and wait.
But then again, in this desolate place, usually no one else comes except those farmer men.
It stands to reason that Jiang Yao is riding a bicycle, which is considered safe, not to mention that Jiang Yao has been walking on the brick road. But while riding the bike, I saw a pile of dirt on the road in front of me, and the mound of dirt was horizontal on the brick road, leaving only a small crack for a bicycle to pass through.
Jiang Yao complained bitterly in his heart, this is good, the retreat time is too long, and the danger of moving forward is too great. I remembered that the auspicious day of the burial was delayed, and I can't miss the time anymore if I say anything today.
Jiang Yao, who had suffered a dumb loss once, carefully pushed the bike up the dirt slope and moved it over with a little more effort.
Ben was still secretly proud, but he didn't think that as soon as he climbed up the dirt slope, the bicycle he was holding tightly was dragged into the water by a black arm stretched out of the water. And the strength and speed of this black-haired arm are so great that they don't give the defenseless Jiang Yao buffer time at all.
When he got into the water, he reacted and shouted desperately to climb to the shore. Originally, I was lucky, there would always be one or two people working in the field who heard the call for help, the black haired hand grabbed it, Jiang Yao plopped and fell into the water, no matter how loud the sound was blocked by the water, it was difficult to hear, and he died.
I thought that drowning would be over, but the black water ghost put down the car in his hand and dragged Jiang Yao firmly, and his head would not be pulled into the depths of the water.
No matter how hard Jiang Yao struggles, it is always a drop in the bucket for this powerful water ghost. It seems that the field has been premeditated for a long time, Jiang Yao is the next substitute ghost, and he can be reincarnated.
Jiang Yao relied on his clumsy swimming skills, held his breath, and prayed in his heart that whether it was Tianyan or Jin Lian, he would come out quickly to save his life. But until he pulled himself to the bottom, there was no long-awaited life-saving straw.
The water ghost pulled Jiang Yao down to the bottom of the water, he should have killed him, but he circled around him, full of feelings of helplessness, and it didn't take long for him to swim away in frustration, after desperate struggle, Jiang Yao was already exhausted, and even the last breath he held back was unconsciously spit out.
At this moment, Jiang Yao had already given up the struggle automatically because of his strength, and even began to swallow a big mouthful of lake water in his mouth.
When I got to the bottom of the water, I didn't know whether it was life or death, but I remembered that Shao Qingren's book vaguely recorded strange things about the underground world, including mentioning that there was a person from the water tribe under the water, who lived freely like ordinary people, wore human clothes, ate underwater creatures, and breathed freely. But after all, it is a legend that has been separated by thousands of years, so how can it be taken seriously?
Jiang Yao, who couldn't tell whether it was real or not for a while, pulled his big mouth into his face fiercely, and his face immediately began to hurt hotly, which can be regarded as proving that he still exists. Thinking that the ancient rumors were found by chance, I still felt a burst of ecstasy in my heart. I was even more annoyed that I lost my grandfather's old antiques.
Looking at the pitch-black water monster overhead, there was a great intention to prevent him from going ashore, so Jiang Yao pondered how to break free from this underwater back and forth.
The more he couldn't think of a way, the more he went back and forth, but he didn't want to be tripped by an object and hit the ground, the bottom of the water was pure silt, and Jiang Yao fell and made him covered in sludge. But when he put his hands on the ground, he felt like he had touched something.
Both hands involuntarily pulled in the ground. The sludge and sludge continued to spread with Jiang Yao's overturning of the river and the sea. The water source that was already dirty because of itself is even more turbid at the moment.
The surface layer of mud was pulled clean, and there was a stone gate wide under his feet.
Jiang Yao was shocked, and happened to say to Shimen, who was rumored to be in contact with the outside world.
The water ghost trapped Jiang Yao here but failed to kill him and reincarnated himself, and even Jiang Yao was indifferent to the big stone gate. But he was still blocking the water, and he couldn't let Jiang Yao go ashore and escape for his life.
Since this is the case, Jiang Yao has no choice but to continue, and he has no way out.
