Dad was so frightened that his legs were weak, and it was a problem to stand up, let alone run.

It's too late, it's too soon......

I saw Mr. Feng jump in front of him, shaking down with the rolled door god in both hands, and threw it at the rushing thing, and suddenly a burst of golden light lit up, accompanied by a poignant sound, which was fleeting.

Dad couldn't remember what happened next.

Because he fainted.

That night, Mr. Feng carried him home, saying that my family has accumulated eight lifetimes of blessings to have this pair of not ordinary door gods to bless, and instructed to worship well in the future, not only to protect the family but also to ward off evil spirits, if you encounter a special situation, you can learn from your father to write paper burning, they will come out to help.

After Mr. Feng left, no one saw him again.

The news soon spread through the village.

Many people from other villages came to look at the portraits on the gate, and they all said that they didn't look like the door gods, and other people's door gods were mighty and domineering, but my door gods looked gloomy and weird, and even the children cried when they saw them.

There are even people who learn from their fathers to write paper and burn in the City God Temple, just hoping that their business will be prosperous and rich, but it has no effect, but it is unlucky.

In the end, everyone took it as a joke.

After all this, I was left with a lot of shadows.

From a bear child to a taciturn and good child.

After a period of time, during the summer vacation, the character of the country that is easy to change and difficult to change is ready to move again, because the weather is really hot, and the friends are hot and prickly, so someone proposes to go to the river to swim.

They are actually hungry and thirsty, but there have been cases of children drowning in the past, and every parent has probably warned that they can't swim in the river alone, and they are afraid of being beaten.

There was a man named Da Niu who was a year older than us.

He had the most ideas, so he asked us to form a gang and look for like-minded partners everywhere, and in just an hour, more than 20 children gathered sneakily by the river, very quiet.

Circling around is like conspiring to do something big.

Da Niu sat in the middle, brainwashing with a group of us to say that there are many people with great strength, and the family doesn't let us swim alone, but now that there are so many people together, there will be nothing at all, just soak your feet in the shallows by the river, wet your head, and don't go to a place in deep water.

After he finished speaking, a group of us thought it made sense.

At first, everyone just rolled up their trousers and ran around the river.

On the way, an old man who herded cattle passed by, and he warned us not to swim in the water, and scared us that there were water ghosts in the water, and we should be caught as substitutes.

The partners all patted their chests and said they were playing on the shore.

The old man nodded, and specially smoked a cigarette not far away while observing for a while, and one of the youngest children asked if there was a water ghost in the big cow water to catch someone as a stand-in?

Da Niu rolled his eyes, "That's if the adults scare us not to swim, what are we afraid of, with me, if you want to catch it, you will catch it first." ”

After the old man left, the more we played, the more crazy we became.

All of them are childlike, simple-minded, and quickly throw the previous words out of the clouds, once there is a leader in stripping and swimming, all of them are like a swarm of bees and no one is convinced, think about it, more than 20 people are like a fryer, very spectacular.

After swimming like this for more than half an hour, the parent of one of the friends came back from the town on a motorcycle, and saw that his own son also had a swimmer, and got out of the car with a hideous face and looked for sticks all over the ground.

When everyone saw this situation, they all went ashore and put on their clothes.

At this time, someone found out that the big cow was gone.

Searched and searched, counted over and over again.

The big bull is really gone!

When the parent saw that something was wrong, he turned his head and slapped his son, and while jumping into the water, he asked us to go back and call people, this is the real fryer, the timid and afraid have begun to cry, and some are scattering and fleeing.

A few minutes later, the miserable cry of Da Niu's mother was heard from a distance, and many adults who rushed to hear the news jumped into the water to help touch the corpse.

The shore was crowded with black heads, several small boats were looking downstream, police cars and ambulances also received phone calls, and after a few hours, still nothing was found.

Even when it was dark, everyone didn't give up with a flashlight.

That night I was punished to my knees and thought about it.

At about two o'clock in the morning in the middle of the night, the body of the big cow was finally fished up at the mouth of the dam downstream, and the scene was terrible, only a body remained, and the head was crushed by the sluice, and I don't know where it was washed away.

The people in the village talk about some superstition, there is a saying that life to see people, death to see the corpse, a day do not find the head back to make it complete, the big cow can not be buried in the earth, the weather is so hot, the corpse quickly emits the smell.

His family went to the Onmyoji and did a few rituals.

However, there is no real ability, if Mr. Feng is here, maybe he can find his head in the vast river.

Thinking of what Mr. Feng once said to me, I felt that I was carrying an unshirkable responsibility, and I felt remorse and sadness, so I found a piece of paper and wrote a paragraph with twisting and twisting:

"Two governors of the underworld, I beg you to help find Li Tieniu's head and bury him as soon as possible."

Shen Shusheng's name is also signed on the back.

Walked to the gate and bowed a few times, and burned the paper with fire.

Then sit on the doorstep in a daze.

I stayed there and fell asleep unconsciously.

I don't know how long I slept, I felt some itching on the back of my hand in a daze, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that it was a big black cat raised by a neighbor.

Why did you suddenly become docile today?

It licked the back of my hand, took a few steps, and turned back.

And so on and so forth, several times.

After thinking about it carefully, it suddenly dawned on me.

Pointing at it, he exclaimed, "You were sent by the door god to help me?" ”

The big black cat barked and turned its head in one direction.

I stood up and ran after it.

If you run slowly, you will stop and wait for someone.

This run stopped, and it took more than an hour.

Finally the big black cat squatted on the edge of a small inlet, and the current was very slow, and I slipped around the shore and saw nothing.

It seemed to be in a bit of a hurry, and its paws kept digging the ground.

I knelt on where it was crouching, and the water was cloudy.

"Down there?"

After asking, it planed more often.

At that time, I wanted to help, and I didn't have any extra thoughts.

One hand touched the water, touched a ball of similar aquatic plants, grabbed it and lifted it up directly, with a bang, the big cow's facial features like a layer of lime appeared in front of him, staring at a pair of gray eyes.

I was so shocked that I reflexively threw myself to the ground.

The head of the bull rolled down the slope.

I was shocked, but I thought that my father and the people in the village were still looking for it in a hurry, and I didn't care about being disgusted and afraid, so I found a black plastic bag and put the head in it, and rushed back to give it to the adults.

Halfway through the run, I remembered the big black cat.

When I turned around, there was still a shadow of it.

Rushing to the door of Da Niu's house, I panted and shouted with a plastic bag: "Found it, found it." ”

Adults gathered around.

Da Niu's family suddenly cried again.

Thankfully, the big cow was finally able to settle down.

So many people couldn't find it, so I let a little kid find it, and asked me where I was, how did I know where the head was, etc......

I made up a lie that Da Niu told me in a dream.

They listened and didn't ask any more questions.

I stood aside and silently watched Da Niu's funeral.

Seeing the familiar playmate lying in the small coffin, the scene of playing together in the past is vivid, tears unconsciously flowed out, and he was sent all the way to the burial place.

When he was burying the soil, he dimly saw the transparent figure of the big cow standing on a tree behind the dirt pit, waving his hand in his direction, rubbing his eyes vigorously, and he disappeared again.

At night, I didn't dare to sleep on my own.

The puffy lime face of the big cow always comes to mind.

I went to sleep with my father, he turned off the light, and asked me if I wanted a new mother in the future, which university I would go to in the future, in short, we chatted all over the world, but I didn't mention all the things about Da Niu.

I didn't know what time it was in the middle of the night, and I was awakened by the sound of a slight footstep.

I looked out the window at the end of the bed with my eyes open, and listened attentively with my ears pricked up.

Click......

Click......

From far to near, and from near to far, it seems to be wandering at the door of one's own house.

Dad's big hand suddenly covered my eyes, and whispered that it was the governor of the underworld patrolling, and with them, all the bull gods and ghosts would retreat.
