Chapter 3: Thunder at Pine Lake
By the time I came ashore, the fish I had caught were enough to satisfy the appetites of the five of us.
Du Longbiao looked at the tall and big horses, but he really wanted to make a move, he was not much stronger than Tong Yang, he didn't even dare to kill a live fish, and he had to throw it on Tong Yang, Tong Yang didn't dare to look at it, a few live fish jumped in his arms, scared his face pale, like a big girl who was molested.
In the end, it was Zhu Xiaoman who started his work, dissecting the hall, scraping the scales, dividing the two by two, more than a dozen fish have been cleaned up, we found a gravel beach to make a fire, I opened the bulging backpack, and everyone was shocked again - there are not only small aluminum pots in it, but also soup spoons and chopsticks, soybean oil hot sauce, and even green onions, ginger and garlic.
Seeing Du Longbiao scratching his head, "Li Er, when did you prepare?" It looks like you've been planning this trip for a long time! β
Zhu Xiaoman scooped the water from the lake directly with an aluminum pot and boiled it on the fire, which she said was called local materials, and the local fishermen did it.
Seeing Tong Yangzhi, he grinned and said that this was unhygienic, and there might be some bacteria and microorganisms in the lake water, or even insect eggs.
But when the smell of fish was wafting around, Tong Yang couldn't help swallowing his saliva, especially when the four of us had already picked up the chopsticks, he finally came over......
When everyone tasted it, the taste was very fresh, but it still seemed to be a little bit worse, and then I slapped my thigh - I forgot to bring salt!
Tong Yang began to complain again at this time, "I brought a lot of miscellaneous things, but the most important thing is to forget, you are really unreliable-"
Du Longbiao said angrily, "Or, you go back and get it?!" β
Tong Yang pursed his lips and said no more.
Seeing that the two guys smelled of gunpowder again, Zhu Xiaoman hurriedly played a round and said with a smile, "Actually, you don't have to bother with it, there is a salt factory on the east mountain by the lake, why don't we want to get some to go?" β
We all know that she is joking, "want to recruit" means stealing, we are police academy students, even if we are bold and out of line, we dare not know the law and break the law and discredit the organization.
This meal was hearty and dripping, and we brought our own liquor - there was not much money on us at that time, only enough to buy a few bags of bulk wine, I don't know if it was blended, anyway, it was extraordinarily fragrant, and after three mouthfuls, we were drunk.
Of the dozen or so fish, there was one of the most delicious and strange-looking, small in size, but with a long, sharp bone on each side, and I almost got my hand pierced when I caught them.
Tong Yang began to be dirty, but his mouth was more greedy than others, and later he picked this fish to eat, which attracted Du Longbiao's disdain.
Zhu Xiaoman said that this is called "Ga Yazi", if the sauce is stewed, the taste is even more amazing. I haven't eaten it, and I want to taste it, but I was glared back by Du Longbiao's eyes, I found that his eyes flickered, as if he was holding back something bad, sure enough, when Tong Yang ate only a few fish bones left, Du Longbiao coughed his throat and said, "The meat of 'Ga Yazi' is fragrant, you only know one, but you don't know the other." β
Tong Yang looked up at him vigilantly, as if he had foreseen something wrong.
"Do you know what this fish likes to eat?" Du Longbiao asked with a smile.
"What?" I cooperate with him.
"Let's put it this way - when I was a child, I stayed at the house of the second master in the countryside, and one summer the reservoir drowned people, and the village party secretary took the villagers to salvage them, but there was no harvest for three days in a row, and finally the people were fished up on the night of the fourth day," Du Longbiao said, "As a result, everyone vomited, and the water-soaked corpse had a yellow face, and the flesh was all bitten by fish......" He pointed to the fish bone on Tong Yang's hand, "That's it, 'Ga Yazi'." β
Tong Yang almost threw up, covered his mouth and ran into the forest behind him. Du Longbiao was so happy that his back molars were exposed.
I was also a little disgusted, and I wanted to take this opportunity to change the topic and ask Lu Yao how he could have deceived "Miss Tong" in a few words.
Lu Yao took a sip of wine, touched his bare and beardless chin, and pretended to smile deeply, "It's not a lie, it's a scareβI said, you just stay in the bedroom by yourself, someone will definitely come to accompany you in a while, and he asked who will come?" I said, what, you don't know yet? What did we do before we lived here and had children? β
We have all heard of this, it is rumored that it was the first military and political command post built by Japanese devils, and later it was renovated by Lao Maozi (the former Soviet Union), and it has gone through ups and downs for decades.
"In those years, there were many people who died in the command post, maybe there is still a half-evil ghost and a terrible ghost left, and seeing that you are alone, you will come out from under the bed and talk to you......," Lu Yao said with a smile.
"You're still bad!" Du Longbiao laughed, "Lu Daxian is a fairy, and he can think of this trick!" β
The nickname "Da Xian'er" is not something we added out of thin air, Lu Yao was born in the countryside, and his grandparents are engaged in a very special industry, helping people eliminate diseases and disasters, but he is not a doctor who practices medicine.
According to his own words, his grandfather and grandmother have tried their best to educate him since he was a child - except for ghosts and gods, that is, Zhiwei, which family's broom pimple has become fine, and tomorrow where and where will the crops grow human heads......
If he hadn't grown up under the red flag, he might have inherited the mantle of his ancestors long ago, and he didn't know where to dance at the moment.
They were laughing, but my stomach was churning all the time, and I had to turn the topic back again, "Biaozi, you just wanted to rectify Tong Yang's problem, but the fish were all boiled in one pot, and you didn't let others eat them?" You have to take care of everyone's emotions when you make up nonsense. β
But Lu Yao's next words made me lose my appetite completely.
He said, "Li'er, Biaozi didn't talk nonsense, how can there be a big reservoir like this that has not drowned people, such a big lake, I don't know how many corpses are buried underneath." β
I couldn't help but look at Zhu Xiaoman, the girl was also real, "Well, every year, two days ago, I heard that there was a wild bath, and I didn't come up again......"
I'm speechless, so you still use the water from the lake......
"Don't believe it, do you?" Lu Yao said more and more, "Then you have nothing to do to take a look, the elders say that as soon as the sky thunders, the corpses at the bottom of the lake will turn over......"
The three of them saw that my expression was a little stiff, and they all secretly snickered, thinking that I was frightened by this, but how could they have imagined that I was thinking about another thing.
I was about to ask, but I heard a "boom" and thunder exploded above my head......
On the day of July, the child's face changed when he said it, and the sky that was still white clouds just now was instantly lead-colored, and soon covered the sun, and the rainstorm was coming at any time!
"Lu Daxian'er's mouth is really open!" Du Longbiao got up and packed his things, "Let's go quickly, don't wait for God...... Huh? Why hasn't Miss Tong come back yet? β
The rain of beans has fallen, we used the soup in the pot to extinguish the fire, turned around and went to the forest to find someone, but after a long time, we didn't even look at a figure, we were a little anxious, began to expand the scope, the most angry is Du Longbiao, although he doesn't like Tong Yang, but when it comes to the critical moment, he seems to care more than anyone else.
In the end, he found Tong Yang, who was lying on the side of a mountain stream, as if he was dead, motionless. Du Longbiao turned him over, and when he saw that his face was pale and his teeth were clenched, he was suddenly startled, touched his nose, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, he just fainted.
Du Longbiao slapped a few times in a row, and Tong Yang woke up slowly, and the first word that came out was an exclamation of "ah", and then shouted, "There are ghosts!" Ghosts! β
Du Longbiao gave him another spoonful, "There is a ghost of his grandmother!" If you vomit and faint, you vomit and faint, what reason do you have to find yourself?! β
"No, really, reallyβ" Tong Yang trembled, as if he had really seen a ghost, "A woman, with a red scarf tied around her waist, no, no head!" β
"! Without a head, can you still tell it's a woman? Du Long scolded angrily.
"She, she's not dressed!"
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the head is accompanied by thunder and lightning, and we can no longer listen to Tong Yang's nonsense, because the most taboo in thunderstorms is under the trees, and if a thunder strikes, we will be worse than those boiled fish.
We ran wildly towards the lake, in the woods in the wrong direction, and by the time we rushed out of the woods, it was no longer the place where we had just had a picnic, but fortunately, the terrain was open, and there were two large rocks that were stacked together, and a gap was naturally formed in the middle, which was not big, but it was enough to squeeze a few of us.
Rainstorms and lightning like this should have come and gone as fast as possible, but I didn't expect it to rain endlessly this time, and we were all half-drenched, crowded under the boulders, helplessly waiting for this ghost weather to pass early.
The lake became gloomy in the torrential rain, like a huge black eye, which made people's hearts chill, I watched for a long time, and finally said my doubt-
"Xiaoman, do you have any extra-large fish in this lake? One man grows, and the ground is white. β
Zhu Xiaoman thought for a while, "There must be big fish, but the white ones can only be silver carp, and they can't grow that long." β
But what I just saw under the water is obviously a big guy, is it really-
"Li'er, you won't see the lake corpse, will you?!" Lu Yao really didn't open any pot, and then added a sentence that made my scalp tingle, "Then did you feel like you were caught by something at that time?" β
"Really?!" My face must not be very good-looking, Lu Yao read out my fear, "The elders have such a saying, it is called 'ghost robbing people', some people who die horizontally can't enter reincarnation, and they can only be freed by catching another 'ghost for the dead', and you are also favored by people who drowned at the bottom of the lake!" "I really don't know how this guy's political trial went.
I feel furious in my heart, but I can't show weakness on my lips, "Nonsense is a fart, it must be a water weed." β
The most dangerous thing about swimming in the wild is to be entangled in your arms and legs by aquatic plants, and the more you struggle, the tighter you get entangled, and many tragedies are caused by this.
"No, you wait, let me see-" Lu Yao began to flip my sleeves and trouser legs, I was disgusted, but I heard Tong Yang cry out "ah", and several other people also stared at my legs, their eyes widened -
On my ankle, there is a red mark, four forward, one backward, clearly a slender handprint!
