Chapter 34: Water Ghosts
The eldest brother's temper is very bad, I have seen it, he glared at me once before, the cold eyes of the eyes are still palpitating when I think about it now, but the fat man is also a hot temper, they seem to be about to do it under these words, I must not be able to do it when I see this situation, I quickly came out to play the round and said: "What are you doing?" Is there anything you need to say? They're all friends, what if they make a move? ”
The fat man said: "Brother thief, the fat man is taking you as a friend, and he also wants to take your brother as a friend, but don't you see it?" Someone not only deliberately found fault with the fat man and deducted the basin on my head, but also wanted to threaten the fat man, really when the fat man was scared? ”
"Can't you say less?" Because of the previous situation, I feel that this fat man is definitely not my eldest brother's opponent, and although I am also suspicious of him now, I still don't want to watch him suffer.
And the eldest brother, standing up at this time, looked at the fat man, as if he was going to make a move in the next moment.
Not to be outdone, the fat man glared at my eldest brother and said: "For the sake of the face of the thief brother, the fat man will not do it with you first, and now the fat man is unhappy and I am going to leave, I will see who can stop me." ”
In fact, no matter whether the fat man's words were cowardly or what, I really wanted the eldest brother to just stop him, but after the fat man turned around and drove away, the eldest brother suddenly moved, I quickly hugged him, shook his head at the eldest brother and said, "Big brother, don't." ”
The eldest brother gently broke me free, and he walked towards the fat man.
And the fat man suddenly stood still, and the next moment, he suddenly turned around, and threw out something in his hand, the speed of this thing was very fast, and he rushed to the eldest brother almost immediately.
Who knew that the thing burned with a bang when it didn't get close to the big brother, and I saw that it was a yellow talisman, but the yellow talisman burned before it got close to the eldest brother.
"Sun Zhongmou, I really didn't guess wrong, fat man, you grew up eating water corpse meat." The fat man looked at the eldest brother and sneered.
"Get out!" The eldest brother didn't make a move, and the fat man's words seemed to make the eldest brother unusually angry, and he shouted loudly at the fat man.
The fat man smiled, shrugged his shoulders and said, "There will be a meeting later." ”
After the fat man finished speaking, he turned around and limped out, the atmosphere in the room was very embarrassing, the fat man's sentence that the eldest brother grew up eating water corpses made me very puzzled, but I didn't dare to open my mouth to see the eldest brother at this time, after a while, the eldest brother still stood motionless, I whispered: "Brother, don't be angry, can't do it." ”
"You can go too." The eldest brother spoke to me much softer, but his tone was as unquestionable as before.
"Okay, you can rest and sleep for a while, it's going to be dawn." I said, and with that, I walked out of my big brother's way.
- After walking out of the eldest brother's yard, I found that the fat man did not go far, but sat not far from the eldest brother's gate panting, and when he saw me coming out, he beckoned to me and said, "Give me a cigarette." ”
The cigarette on my body was still that pack of damp, the fat man directly took out one and lit it, and smoked a few puffs fiercely, at this time it was almost dawn, I saw that the fat man's face was very pale, and it was covered with beads of sweat, he gritted his teeth and smoked, as if he was enduring great pain.
I looked down and saw that the wound on the fat man's leg was oozing blood, and his wound was already shocking, and after a few steps, it cracked.
"Are you still strong when you're hurt? What should I do if I really get started? "I couldn't bear to look at the fat man's uncomfortable appearance.
The fat man smiled bitterly and said: "Fat man, I have been walking the rivers and lakes for so many years, don't look at this fat face, it is worth a little money wherever I go, so the gold is expensive, my life can be lost, and my face cannot be lost." ”
After saying that, he took out a few talismans from his waist and lit them, and then sprinkled the talisman ash on the wound, although the talisman ash stopped the bleeding, but he grinned in pain, he held the stone, and one hand was on my shoulder.
I don't know why, but I suddenly turned sideways, and this slight movement made the fat man's hand fall into the air.
I immediately realized that my action was hurting the fat man, but when I looked up and saw the fat man's eyes, I knew it was too late to explain.
There was a faint sadness in the fat man's eyes, which I hadn't had since the first day I saw him, he smiled bitterly and turned his head and said, "You don't believe me either?" ”
"Nope." I wondered.
"It's not strange, the fat man is you will also suspect it, I came here to introduce it to Tang Renjie, you have a pimple in your heart, and now we are by mistake and Tang Renjie's way, you must think that the injuries on my legs, including the fat man, are all bitter tricks, don't say anything else, I will finally say a word, whether this thing was done by Tang Renjie or not, I don't know about the fat man, you just say you believe it or not." The fat man looked at me and asked.
"Let's go back and find some medicine on the wound first, why are you talking about this now?" I bowed my head to pick up the fat man.
The fat man shook off my hand and said, "Believe it or not!" ”
"What about believing and what about not believing? Do you think I have that good judgment? I asked.
"If you believe in the fat man, I will recognize you as a friend, if you don't believe it, pull the cock down, I know that this is stupid, and you don't care if you have a friend of the fat man." The fat man said.
I looked at the fat man and continued to look him in the eye, after which I nodded and said, "I believe it." ”
The fat man turned his head, looked at me with a firm look in his eyes and said, "King of Thieves, from today onwards, you will be my friend Liu Fatzi." ”
Hearing the fat man say this, I feel very warm in my heart, to be honest, since I was a child, because my father died early, and died strangely, I actually don't have any friends, these years have grown up, and I have seen a lot of friends at the wine table, but only the fat man's words make me feel that this has a kind of heroic dry clouds of eight worship.
"Let's go, go back, don't hold on, I know you can't walk." I bent down and motioned for the fat man to rest on my arm.
This time the fat man did not refuse, but he was too heavy, and it was difficult for me to carry him so much, and the fat man scolded as he walked: "Your eldest brother is very damaged, and if you want to fight with the fat man, you can't wait for me to get better, isn't this taking advantage of people's danger?" ”
"That day, I beat the coffin under the water, and you said that you have a specialization in art, and today the person with the mask can hurt you like this, but my eldest brother can beat him away, so even if you two haven't done anything, it's easy to judge who is higher and who is low, it's not interesting to have a hard mouth like this." I laughed.
"Not necessarily." The fat man is still hard-mouthed.
"Don't talk about this, the talisman just now was in front of my eldest brother, you said that my eldest brother grew up eating water corpse meat, what's the matter?" I asked, and it seemed that after the fat man said this, the eldest brother was very angry.
"I've heard of these twelve ghost caves, although I don't know that there is a sarcophagus inside, but I also know that there are countless corpses inside, the water belongs to yin, and the corpses are even more yin, so the ghost cave is a place where corpses are accumulated, and ordinary people will definitely not be able to get out when they go in, so when I first heard Tang Renjie say that your eldest brother can go in, I suspected that he was a water ghost." The fat man said.
"Water ghosts?" I was stunned.
The fat man nodded and said: "I didn't have the opportunity to get close to him before, and I don't dare to conclude, today it's close, I can feel the death of your eldest brother, I threw out the anti-evil charm and threw it on the living person is a piece of waste paper, it stands to reason that it will work if it is thrown on the dead person, your eldest brother is not a dead man, he grew up from eating water corpse meat, and he is full of corpse gas, and he can only suppress the walking corpse in the water." ”
"Wouldn't it be a corpse?" I asked, with a chill.
"That's right, it's a corpse in the water, from a snack to this, after eating enough for eighteen years, then you will become a water ghost." The fat man said.
I can't accept the fat man's statement to the eldest brother, although I actually feel accepted in my heart, if not, why is the eldest brother so angry after the fat man said this?
"Don't talk nonsense, you only eat water corpse meat!" I said.
"Don't believe it, your eldest brother erected the flag as a corpse digger, maybe you don't know, the water ghosts in the past were corpse diggers, saying that they were corpse diggers, but they are different from corpse diggers." The fat man continued.
The more he talked, the more I felt like my big brother was like he said.
"I heard a friend of mine say that in ancient times, when there was a perennial war, coupled with the plague and famine passenger boat accident, there were a lot of corpses in the Yellow River, but at that time as now, the general situation was that the fishermen were responsible for collecting the corpses, and the rules for collecting corpses were much more than now, and after the corpses were found, the corpses would be covered with white cloths, and then tied to the waist of the corpses with hemp ropes woven with black dog hair, and they dragged the corpses and waited for people to claim them, and if the family members recognized them, they would drag the corpses ashore, but no one recognized the corpses. They will be thrown into the water, and the ownerless and lonely souls will not be fished. But there is a situation where they will invite water ghosts. The fat man said.
