Chapter 8: Wicker Fights Ghosts

Unlike the iron pillar, I always felt that something was wrong, because I found that as soon as Erdan's head was exposed to the water, the little girl went to grab his calf again, and looked at the posture, and wanted to pull Erdan's water into the water, looking like she would not give up.

I thought to myself, whose dead child is this, it's not over yet, just make a joke, and if it goes on like this, it's going to kill someone.

I was in a hurry, and yelled at Erdan: "Erdan, what do you want, hurry up and grab the rope, and I'll pull you back." ”

The second egg in the water heard my voice, fluttered a few times, choked on two mouthfuls of water, and quickly reached out to grab the rope of the fishing net, and I used my strength here to start pulling him.

But what shocked me was that the little girl's strength was so strong that she grabbed the calf of the second egg, and I grabbed the rope and didn't drag her.

Little by little, my feet stepped into the water from the shore, and I was pulled into the depths of the pond by the rope, and the second egg cried in the water, choked on a few mouthfuls of water and sank into the water.

"This dead child's strength is so great, I can't save the second egg if I go on like this, not to mention, I have to be pulled into the water by her." I saw that a man was not strong enough, so I yelled at the iron pillar and told him to come and pull with me.

Tie Zhu obviously also noticed that something was unusual, with a serious face, and hurriedly ran over to help me, and with the joint efforts of the two of us, I narrowly pulled the second egg out of the water.

As soon as Erdan's head was revealed, he cried at the two of us: "Help, something is pulling my legs, I don't want to die." ”

I hurriedly said Erdan, you hold on, Tiezhu and I will pull you up, I was afraid that the two of them would not have enough strength, so I shouted a few times at the children who were fishing in the distance, and called them over to help pull the rope together.

The two of us, along with a few other children, a total of six people, began to pull the rope together.

There are many people and great strength, and the second egg was finally pulled back by us to the shore little by little, but what made my back chill was that the child still grabbed the second child's calf and held on, and his eyes looked at me viciously, as if he had a deep hatred for me.

I was anxious at the time, thinking, you dead child, shameless, endless, right, what are you staring at me, who are you scaring about, I was angry, stubborn came up, let go of the rope, picked up a few small pebbles on the ground, and smashed her head and face.

The pebble I threw out fell on her, and she didn't dodge, but the look in my eyes became more vicious, but the iron pillar saw me throwing stones, and behaved very strangely, so he asked, "Why don't you pull the rope, why are you throwing stones?" ”

I said isn't it the dead kid yet, she grabbed the second egg's leg and didn't let go, I hit her with a stone, and gave her some color.

Tie Zhu looked into the water, except for the second egg crying father and calling for help, how could there be any children, he asked a few other partners, and they all shook their heads and said that they didn't see any children in the water.

Hearing him say this, I was a little stunned, cold sweat on my back, why can I see, but they can't see the iron pillar, thinking of the little girl's terrifying appearance and her amazing strength, I can't help but start to wonder if I have met a ghost.

As soon as this thought came to me, I was so frightened that my whole body went limp, my head buzzed, my heart was so panicked that I almost couldn't breathe, and my body shook a little.

Tie Zhu saw that my face was not good-looking, and said What's wrong with you, it's okay, come and pull the rope if it's okay, don't be stunned.

I didn't dare to tell a few of them about seeing ghosts, for fear of scaring them away, who would save the second egg at that time, I had to tremble and grab the rope, and pull with everyone without saying a word, and from time to time I looked at the little girl under the water, and I couldn't tell what it was like.

Just when we worked together to pull the second egg halfway, to everyone's surprise, the rope suddenly collapsed, and it was disconnected from the middle, and a few of us sat on the ground with a butt, and for a while people turned over on their backs, wailing endlessly, very embarrassed.

Seeing that the rope was broken, Erdan was suddenly frightened, his face turned like dirt, his hands were waving, his mouth was shouting for help, and he was dragged by the little girl to the depths of the pond.

Now a few of them are dumbfounded, they don't know what to do, only I understand what's going on, the rope is broken, the second egg was taken away by the ghost, and he will never come back.

At that time, I was only ten years old, watching the second egg being dragged into the water by the ghost in front of my eyes, I was scared and aggrieved, I sat on the ground and cried, crying, shouting for help, my friends listened to my shout, and after being stunned, they also opened their throats and shouted for help.

It also happened that an old man with a hoe was passing by, and when he heard our shouting, he ran over with a hoe.

He looked into the water, and without saying a word, he broke a willow stick and jumped into the water, swimming towards Erdan.

The old man swam to the place where Erdan sank, groped in the water for a while, and took Erdan's arm and pulled him out of the water.

Then he took the willow stick and beat it in the water, and at the same time shouted in his mouth: "Hurry up, if you don't get out, I'll whip you dead kid." ”

Tiezhu They saw the old man taking willow sticks and beating them in the water, they were all confused, only I could see clearly, the old man's wicker was all hit on the little girl at the bottom of the water.

At this time, I can't help but think of a story that the village people hang on their lips after tea and dinner, saying that wicker belongs to yin and has a restraint effect on ghosts.

There is a willow branch inserted in the white jade net bottle dragged by Guanyin Master, called the pure willow branch, all the willows in the world are from this pure willow branch, and the willow branch is soaked in the white jade bottle all the year round, contaminated with aura, so it has the ability to drive away evil spirits and avoid ghosts.

It is said that the ghost is beaten with willow branches, and every time it is beaten, the ghost is three inches shorter, so as the saying goes, the wicker beats the ghost, and the more it hits, the smaller it gets.

Sure enough, I saw that the little girl in the water seemed to be very afraid of the wicker, with a look of fear, the old man hit her a few times, and she was finally unwilling to let go of the calf of the second egg, and slowly retreated to the depths of the water, but before leaving, she did not forget to glare at me fiercely.

When I met her eyes, I suddenly felt cold, as before, there seemed to be something in my head, buzzing again, my chest was like a block, I couldn't breathe, the feeling came again, and it was very uncomfortable.

I simply closed my eyes and stopped looking at her, so after a while, I felt that the breath I was holding in my heart was finally smoother and more comfortable.

Erdan was carried ashore by the old man, and then the old man pressed him on the chest a few times, except for a few mouthfuls of water and his face turned pale, there was no major problem.

At that time, everyone asked the second egg, what the hell was going on just now, so many of us dragged you back.
