Chapter 850: Losing face
When the six of us came to one of the two villages, I could feel that the village was a little lifeless.
"Excuse me, is anyone there?" As we stood in the middle of the village, You Zhipei shouted loudly.
"It seems that no one," Duo Duo interjected on the side.
"Are all the people in this village drowning in the floods?" You Zhipei continued.
"It's very likely" said this to my master.
"I'll take Liu Shou, little junior sister, you take Duoduo, He Laosi, you take You's nephew, let's scatter the six of us and see if we can find someone in the village" Master instructed to Little Aunt, Uncle He.
"Okay, then let's scatter and look for it!" Uncle He answered, and took You Zhipei to the east of the village first.
"Duoduo, let's go to the west of the village" So the little aunt took Duoduo to the west of the village.
"Let's go too," Master led me to the north of the village.
In this village, people did not see a single one, dead pigs, dead chickens, dead ducks, dead dogs, etc., but saw a lot, the village road was covered with domestic garbage, and the air was filled with a pungent smell, I couldn't help but plug my nose with my hands.
Master and I walked for less than ten minutes, and I saw a puddle on the side of the road, the diameter of the pit was about two meters long, and the depth of the water was less than half a meter, and I saw seven or eight big carp swimming around in it, each carp was more than a foot long, and this should have been the time when the water was released, and the fish ran out of the nearby lake and river, and when the water receded, these fish did not run away and were trapped in this puddle.
"Master, Master, there are fish, we have fish to eat tonight," I said to Master with an excited face, pointing to the puddle.
I am a rural child, and when I was a child, the greatest pleasure in the countryside was nothing more than climbing trees, going into the water to fish, hiding cats, etc. When I saw those seven or eight big carps, I thought of when I was a child, following Wen Jun and Dawei to fish in the ditch near our village. Wen Jun and Dawei gave me all the big fish they touched, and they only kept some small fish to take home to eat.
"Liu Shou, wait a minute" Just as I ran to the puddle and was about to take off my shoes and go into the water, Master shouted to me.
"What's wrong, Master, is there anything wrong?" I looked back and asked the Master suspiciously.
"Look what that is," Master said to me, pointing to a spot not far from the puddle, and I followed Master's hand and looked at it.
"Vomit" When I saw what Master was pointing, I couldn't help but vomit, I vomited out all the things I had eaten in my stomach at noon today, even the acid water in my stomach.
Not far from the puddle was a swollen and blackened corpse, crawling with maggots and flies, and I saw several rats gnawing on the corpse's thighs.
"Do you dare to eat the fish here?" Master asked me with a smile, and I waved my hand at Master, then ran to the side and crouched down and continued to vomit.
In the two adjacent villages, we didn't find a single person, but found a few swollen and blackened corpses, Master, Little Aunt, Uncle He, when they saw the corpses, they just frowned, You Zhipei and Duoduo and the three of us couldn't help but vomit when we saw the swollen and blackened corpses crawling with maggots, and the three of us almost vomited out the bitter gall water.
When I got back to the car, it was already completely dark, I only drank a small sip of water, and my aunt handed me a pack of biscuits, which I didn't eat in my hand, although I was very hungry now, but I didn't have the appetite to eat at the thought of the corpses in the village. You Zhipei, Duoduo's condition is the same as mine, and the two of them have no appetite to eat.
"Little junior sister, drive on," the master instructed the little aunt.
"Okay, second senior brother," the little senior aunt answered, started the car, and then drove forward.
On the way, we encountered several water ghosts walking aimlessly on land, and Master took out the soul collection bag pinned to his waist, opened the car window, and put the water ghosts we encountered into the soul collection bag.
It is easy to distinguish the ghost who has been drowned in the water, one is that the water ghost has a lot of resentment, and the other is that the water ghost will have water hanging on his body, just like a person who has just come out of the water after swimming, and he is wet all over.
"Uncle Jiang, wait a minute, leave this water ghost to me" When the master took out the soul collection bag to collect a female water ghost, he was stopped by You Zhipei.
"Okay, I'll leave this water ghost to you," the master nodded and replied to You Zhipei.
You Zhipei asked Uncle He for a soul collecting bag, he opened the door of the van and ran towards the female water ghost, You Zhipei didn't run two steps before he tripped over a big rock and fell to the ground, falling all over the mud. You Zhipei fell down, and he also startled the female water ghost, and the female water ghost turned around in fright and fled into the distance.
At this time, I jumped out of the car with Master and chased after the female water ghost, and since I had not eaten at night and did not have much strength in my body, I felt that I was running and fluttering.
Just when the female water ghost ran to the river and was about to jump into the water, the master ran behind the female ghost using the Tiangang Big Dipper, and the master stretched out his right hand and grabbed the female ghost's clothes, and threw the female water ghost to my side.
"Liu Shou, you took her," Master shouted at me.
"Yes, Master" I replied to Master, and then took out the copper gourd that I had brought with me, and collected the soul of the female water ghost into the gourd.
"I wanted to perform well, but I fell down so badly, it's really embarrassing to throw it home," You Zhipei got up from the ground and muttered with a frustrated face.
"Not only do you feel ashamed, but your uncle and I have also made you lose all of your face," Uncle He patted his face and said to You Zhipei angrily.
At this time, You Zhipei's body was full of mud, and his face was also full of mud, and we couldn't help laughing when we saw the bear that You Zhipei suffered.
"Second brother, you go to my suitcase and get me a set of clothes, and I'll take a bath by the river," You Zhipei turned around and commanded me.
"Haha, okay" I smiled and replied to You Zhipei, and then went to the van to find clothes for You Zhipei.
Just when You Zhipei was about to walk to the river, my master and he grabbed You Zhipei.
"Master You, don't wash it, there should be a lot of water ghosts in this river, once you are dragged into it by water ghosts, it will not be good" Master looked at the river in front of him with a worried face, which was more than ten meters wide, and said to You Zhipei.
"Uncle Jiang, I'm about to die of discomfort with this mud, you better let me take a bath!" You Zhipei pointed to the mud on his body and replied to my master.
