Chapter 122 (Water Ghost)

I shook it hard, and suddenly I didn't feel anything anymore. The mountains in the distance are stacked, a barrier is far away from a barrier, and it is still hazy to appear like the sun, and this time there is a little blue and black shrouded up,

We had just gotten off the bridge and landed on the other side of the shore.

"How?" Mom turned around and asked me.

I shook my head, since that I have been often approached by these things, but not so often at first, until I return to Goya, the situation has worsened day by day, ten steps and five steps, and it is not uncommon to encounter anything. In addition, Goya itself is an old place, and everything that has existed for a long time will make people feel a little awe, so looking at the grass and trees, stones and tiles here, it seems that they are full of souls and have their own joys and sorrows.

The more I think about it, the more ghosts there are in this world.

Mom stopped asking me, let go of my hand, and walked forward.

I couldn't help but wonder and turned my head to look.

This look is amazing, the sky is blue and the sky is white, and the bridge seems to be loaded into a TV.

I saw that on the stone bridge, which was not wide, a bunch of shadows of people were densely crowded.

These people are men and women, old and young, the old people wear their hair in coils, and the young people wear shirts and straw sandals with buttons, which are even more clear.

The clothes look like coarse old clothes, the style is also simple and simple, and the colors are relatively monotonous, most of them are green, blue, black, and gray.

The patches on the clothes and pants are even more rare, and the clothes are washed white and old.

It is not clear from the clothes that they are in the season, and there is no distinction between male and female styles.

The group gathered around the bridge, pointing and pointing, as if they were arguing about something.

But as if it was a silent movie, they were emotional, their mouths were wide open, and they danced with their hands, even gesturing, and there was still no sound at all.

Everyone was looking under the bridge, so I looked under the bridge too. The water is clear, and the colorful pebbles and splashes are clearly visible, including the small tadpoles that swim from nowhere, but there is nothing in the water other than that.

Looking up at the stone bridge again, a gust of wind passed, and the thatch growing from the stone cracks on the bridge shook slightly, and the shadows of the people on it disappeared in an instant as if they had been pressed to shut down the machine.

It is said to be a scientifically explainable phenomenon, and it is essentially the same principle as a video camera saves images.

However, it is still very difficult to preserve the image in pure nature, just like in the Forbidden City, there are always people who see palace maids walking around on the wall.

Recording is a very demanding thing, including weather, environment, etc.

"Not leaving?" Mom walked a distance of about ten meters, and suddenly turned back to call me, and I turned to follow.

When I got to the field, Ning Yu wanted to go to the stream to play, so I asked me to come along.

Because the water was shallow, my parents agreed, but told me not to get wet, otherwise I would get cold, so we didn't go to the bridge, but went to the creek next to the ridge, where my parents could see what we were doing at a glance.

In the stream, some people piled up stones to hold back the water and build a small dam.

The water flows here, the speed of the flow is much slower, and the color of the water is a little yellow, probably because there is some yellow floating dust in the water.

Adults once said that the floating dust is called rust, and there are two possible reasons in the water, one is that the water is polluted, and the other is that there is iron under the water.

Of course, I suspect it is contaminated.

From the surface of the water, you can faintly see the bottom of the water. There was nothing but mud and a stone dam on the side, and there was nothing underneath.

On both sides of the water, there are ridges about two feet high, and the ridges are narrow, only a little more than a foot wide, and if you had not grown up in the village and were accustomed to this kind of road, you might have fallen into the stream or the fields on the other side.

It's not pretty.

There is an unknown dwarf tree growing next to the ridge path, like a tree, but it is too small, all long branches, these branches are like willow, soft, not long, but the willow grows willow leaves, and this branch grows is indeed a kind of cylindrical hanging strip with a diameter of more than five or six millimeters, the hanging strip is soft, the long one may be ten centimeters long, and the short one is two or three centimeters, because the shape is a bit similar to the street carrying wheat to olives into noodles, and then hanging them one by one on the bamboo pole.

So my parents told us that the names of the branches were all noodles.

Ning Yu wanted to fold the long noodles, I was thinking that it was not very safe, and said no, he was stubborn and unhappy, so I thought about it and said to him: "Then you stand next to you, and I will fold it for you." ”

I think it's safer for me to do it myself than to let him fold it.

"Hmm!" Ning Yu nodded.

I cautiously reached over, and as I had expected, my hand stretched out and grabbed the most handsome of the noodles.

The branches of the noodles are a little soft, and it is not easy to fold them, so while I fold it with all my strength and skill, Ning Yu is shouting and urging beside me.

Finally breaking off the hanging noodles, I straightened up and handed the wooden sticks towards Ning Yu.

An inexplicable wind came, and my heart suddenly tightened.

Ning Yu was standing with his back to the stream, and I don't know why, we didn't react.

Suddenly, Ning Yu leaned back, with a sudden horror on his face, and the whole person fell upside down into the stream.

This is the deepest part of the stream, and it won't hurt anyone if you fall down, but it won't drown us in the stream, as long as he gets up, he'll be fine.

"Ning Yu!" I shouted.

He threw himself into the water, making a big splash, and then he floated out of the water again, lying on his back, his limbs fluttering.

He struggled and shouted, "Sister...... Help me......"

Then the yellowing water passed through his mouth and nose, and poured into his mouth, and he struggled again, and floated a little bit.

I shouted anxiously: "The water is shallow, you stand up." ”

He was still fighting and did not react.

I put out the long branch in my hand and cried out, "Hold on to the stick, and I will pull you to your feet." ”

He heard me, and was about to reach out and grab the branch, but it seemed to sink down, and then he began to struggle, and he couldn't hold on to the branch at all.

He shouted again: "Sister......"

At this time, I suddenly saw a big black hand like carbon in the yellowing water, reaching towards Ning Yu.

In the blink of an eye, the big blackened hand had gradually approached Ning Yu's neck, and faintly, the water around Ning Yu was covered with a black shadow.

Ning Yu was still fighting, shouting in his mouth: "Save ......" and then the word "I" was flooded again.

Without thinking about anything, I shook the branch in my hand and jumped into the stream.

Anger rushed over my brain, supporting my modest limbs.

The icy water of the early spring rushed across my chest, and the water rippled and swayed, and I almost fell into the water.

It was only a few steps away, and it was extremely difficult for me to get to Ning Yu's side, and the big black hand that looked like it had been burned by charcoal disappeared from Ning Yu's neck.

I helped Ning Yu's shoulder, and with a force, he stood up in the water, I hugged his shoulder, and slowly moved to the shore together, Ning Yu's whole body trembled.

At this time, Mom and Dad had already run to the edge of the field.

Mom looked flustered and worried, and kept shouting, "I'm going to die, I'm going to die...... Little dead babies ......"

Dad's face was pale, and he stretched out two big hands and lifted Ning Yu up with one hand.

When my mother took over Ning Yu, my eyes were red with distress, and my father turned his hand to pull me.

In the water, there was a hand that grabbed my ankle.

But because I jumped in and muddied the water, I couldn't see anything when I looked down.

I hurriedly grabbed my father's hand and held it tightly.

Dad frowned, and lifted me up with a blushing face.

My father lifted me up there, and that hand pulled me in the water.

He didn't want me to go......

But this is impossible, when I kicked that hand with my other foot, I suddenly remembered that my amulet was given to Chu Qin, and I suddenly wanted to laugh at my rotten kindness, and I was too busy to take care of myself, so I went to take care of it.

"Don't struggle." Dad said in a calm voice, and I stopped moving.

Dad lifted me up, and then, without saying a word.

"Smack!" A bang.

A slap in the face made my eyes look like stars......

At this time, you generally can't speak, just bow your head and admit your mistakes.

The face was hot, and when I lowered my head, a hot current came from my nose, and I was stunned when I saw the nosebleed fall to my feet, and this thing was brought out.

That's a hand.

There was no flesh and skin, just the bones of a white hand.

The bones are caught in my shoelaces.

Reaching out to cover the nosebleed, he raised his head, only to see that his parents' eyes also fell on the hand bone.

Mom and Dad's faces were horribly pale in an instant.

Ning Yu's body was still trembling slightly.

Maybe it's because you're used to it, or you're too lazy to panic, and fear only eats away at your heart for a moment, and then your mind is blank, so the whole person calms down.

I squatted down, the cold wind blew on the soaked clothes and pants, the whole body was cold, and when I turned around, I saw that my mother was already taking off the wet clothes on Ning Yu's body, except for a few of us, all around were empty, and I instantly felt that the color of this season was really plain, and I missed it all of a sudden.

The man who said he was going to protect me for the rest of my life doesn't know where he is now.

Is this the same relationship between people and people?

They come inexplicably, and they leave inexplicably, in fact, they can see the scenery of this life with themselves, and they are the only ones who can see the scenery of this life.

When the gentleman did not come out, I made up my mind to avoid the hand that was entangled in the laces, and put my thumb and index finger on the heel together, so that the foot in the shoe came out.

Then he tore off another shoe, and threw it into the water, and sank.

In such shallow water, people can drown?

The thought flashed through my mind......

There was still a stream flowing down my fingertips, and I stepped barefoot on the road with fine stones, but all the sensations disappeared, and I seemed to have become those shoes, and the cold water flooded my mouth and nose, and in the water with yellow floating dust, I opened my eyes, and an infinitely magnified, extremely ugly face appeared in front of me.

That face ......

Densely interlaced with this scratch, burning.

One eye, only one hole remains; The lower lip was cut off, revealing yellowed teeth and flesh-pink gums, ears were gone, and two nostrils were open.

Looking at the face soaked in water, there was no blood, except for the burning black scars, every other wound was clean and neatly pink, this was a face that looked tattered.

The face was breathing, his breathing was rapid, but it seemed as if something was holding him back from speaking, so that he could only open his mouth with a black hole, and nothing could be said as his emotions were.

Maggots crawled out of his black hole, and a nausea feeling flooded his heart, like swallowing a maggot crawling out of his mouth alive, extremely uncomfortable.

I woke up with a shout in my head, and when I woke up, I only heard my mother's voice rising higher and higher, trembling, worried, and at a loss to complain to my father: "You are still so heavy, afraid that she will not die?" ”

I wanted to say it was fine, but it was choked in my throat, and it was as if something was holding me back.

Extreme drowsiness hit, and I tried to lift my heavy eyelids, but it was extremely difficult, but I still couldn't open them.

Suddenly, the soft fingertips fell on the eyelids, and the touch was cold, and the gentle and familiar voice was like the aftermath of the music after it had stopped, and the voice chuckled lowly, and said, "I have only been away for a short time, and I have made myself like this." ”

Then, my fingertips opened my eyelids, a beam of light came into view, and the sleepiness disappeared in an instant, and the person in front of me was Ye Zhiqiu's face.

Turning his head sideways, the walls with various fine patterns were drawn, the old curtains, the old desks, the "Dream of Red Mansions", "The Shadow of the Dream", and "Zi Buyu" on the table were still left as they were, and even the half-dead chrysanthemum in the window was never moved.

I don't know when I got home, but my mother changed my clothes.

The master was there, he frowned, his eyes looked blankly in front of him, puffed his small cigarette pouch, and only after a long time did he smack the two absent-minded bars, and then two wisps of gray light smoke exhaled from his nostrils.

Mom stood next to her and coughed twice, and the little grandmother didn't know where the voice came from and said, "I want to smoke outside, and the room where I smoke stinks to death." ”

I turned to Ye Zhiqiu again, he looked down, looking at me intently, his eyelashes were like moth wings, resting on his thin cheeks, and a look of gentle pity arose......

In my mind, the word "sir" was about to come out, flowing to my chest, overflowing from the respiratory tract, and suddenly turning into a wisp of incense, a trace of sweetness, lingering, but I couldn't get out of my mouth.

I couldn't help but get frustrated.

Seeing that I was depressed, he smiled quietly again, like a rising moon, suddenly enveloping the brilliance of a room, and everyone lost their demeanor unconsciously.

Even I, at that moment, was stunned by the light of his smile.

His eyes turned bright and warm, sharp and sweet, and he said in a calm and warm tone: "Sleep, I'll accompany you, just sleep......"

In a daze, I felt his hand, fingertips gently rubbing against the palm of his hand.

It's still cold, and the long winter makes me feel as if time doesn't even flow.

He held my hand, and I followed him along a dark road, and then I walked through a forest, and the wind blew the leaves, and fell all over the ground, and I was like a cloud, and I felt that my whole body was light and free.

It's a long time since I've had an easy time.

The sky gradually brightened, the woods came to the end, suddenly brightened, a huge old locust tree, like an open umbrella, covering the sky and the sun, the sun through the branches and leaves projected down, the land under the tree was flat, the houses were like, and the passers were all face and happy.
