Draft, the family affairs in the past two days, the writing is messy, and I am not in the mood to revise it, let's talk about it tomorrow.

After the wooden man smeared the blood, there was the last step of the sacrifice, I didn't let Chen Hui and the three of them follow, I found a hidden place by myself, and practiced the wooden man, and I won't write about the specific sacrifice method, because there are many taboos in it, and it can't be made public. However, I can reveal a little bit, this thing can't be sacrificed at night, can't be sacrificed in the absence of sunlight, and can't be sacrificed in a place or time where the yin qi is heavy, otherwise, it is likely to be sacrificed into an evil thing that summons yin, which is why I don't announce the specific method of sacrifice.

After the sacrifice was completed, I put it in the sun for two hours, in order to dry the blood on it, and at the same time to allow the wooden man to fully absorb the yang energy in the sun's rays.

In the evening, we went back to the old woman's house, and by this time all the people in their house were in order, the old man and the young man had gone home, and the child had woken up.

The grandmother's family let us have dinner at their house, after the meal I asked them if there was a hemp rope at home, the longer the better, the old man said, there is no hemp rope at home, but there is a straw rope that was only kneaded a few days ago.

The old man took out the straw rope, I looked at it, the thickness of the two thumbs, a little thick, the old man said, it is thick and easy to get, just take apart one strand, so, a straw rope was split into four strands, each share is only the thickness of the little finger, I looked, this is it.

In the evening, at about ten o'clock, I took the straw rope paper man and beckoned Qiang Shun to go with me to the waterhole, Chen Hui was not at ease, and he also wanted to follow, Zhou Hua was silent, the grandmother and their family made a room for them to lay on the floor, Zhou Hua shrunk on the ground and did not move. The three of us left the old woman's house and went straight to Houshan Waterhole.

Soon, I crossed the mountain to the edge of the waterhole, and at this time, the whole ravine was pitch black, and the hazy moonlight in the sky was reflected in the waterhole, making the waterhole look particularly weird.

I asked Qiang Shun to open the yin and yang eyes, first looked at the waterhole, Qiang Shun shook his head at me after reading it, I asked him to hide a little farther back with Chen Hui, I wet the straw rope in the water, and then tied it to the wooden man, picked it up and threw it into the water, and then I pulled the straw rope myself, two or three meters away from the waterhole, and greeted Qiang Shun, looking at the wooden man in the water, what is there, hurry up and greet me.

At this time, due to inertia, after falling on the water, the wooden man began to float towards the middle of the pool, because it itself is light in wood, the buoyancy is very large, a moment of effort, towards the center of the waterhole floated four or five meters away, I saw that it was OK, gently pulled the rope, so that the wooden man stabilized on the water.

After waiting for about half an hour, Qiang Shun whispered behind him, "Come up, there's a dark shadow under the water." ”

Listening to Qiang Shun say this, I immediately became vigilant, at this time, the wooden man moved slightly, as if the fish on the fishing line floated a little, followed by, the wooden man sinked down suddenly, the straw rope in my hand immediately straightened, I hurriedly sent the straw rope into the water, after sending two or three meters, I began to pull back, the straw rope was straightened again, I felt that the thing in the water was quite strong, I turned around and threw the rope head to Qiang Shun behind me, signaled him to hold the rope head, I began to compete with the things in the water, Holding the rope with both hands and pulling it up, the wooden figure was finally pulled to the surface by me, and I hurriedly signaled Qiang Shun again and pulled the rope back.

Chen Hui also came over at this time, stood with me, and pulled the rope back together, I quickly whispered to Chen Hui, to pull up with the strength of the water ghost, not to pull hard, otherwise the wooden man is not strong, it is likely to pull the wooden man into two sections, Chen Hui nodded confidently.

Seeing, the wooden man was about to be pulled to the shore by us, suddenly, the water ghost increased the force, the three of us hurriedly sent the straw rope along the way, the wooden man was pulled into the water by the water ghost two or three meters, at this time, it felt not so strong, the three of us began to pull up again, and when we were about to pull to the shore again, the water ghost suddenly increased its strength again, and we hurriedly sent the rope again.

After going back and forth a few times, we all understood that this water ghost didn't want to go ashore, I pondered for a while, and then whispered to Chen Hui Qiangshun to discuss, "You two pull your bodies on the shore to attract the attention of the water ghost, I will go around from the side and go down to the water to get him up!" ”

Chen Hui disagreed, this was too dangerous, I said: "There is no other good way, if you just consume it with him like this, you won't be able to get it until dawn." After saying that, I let go of the rope and quietly walked towards the water on the side of the wooden man, on the side of the water, there was a rocky field protruding into the water, I went down from the other side of the rocky field, it was difficult for the water ghost to find me, and then I took advantage of the gap between the water ghost and the wooden man, and blocked it from behind.

Everything went according to my plan, Chen Hui and Qiang Shun pulled the wooden man, attracting the water ghost, I quietly slipped out of the side of the rock into the water, and looked at the wooden man, the wooden man floated together in the water, indicating that the water ghost had not noticed that someone had entered the water.

I walked along the rocky shore and gently waded through the water towards the wooden man, when the water had just reached my waist, and in order not to let the water ghosts find out, I half-squatted in the water, only putting my head out of the water, and moving a little in the water.

The location of the wooden man happened to be a water recess, the front and both sides were shores, only the middle and the back were who, as long as I touched the notch and blocked the notch, it would be difficult for the water ghost to escape.

Seeing this, I was about to wipe it to the notch, and suddenly, I heard Qiang Shun on the shore shout, "It's not good, the wooden man is broken!" ”

Immediately after, there was a "bang", the wooden man was pulled ashore by Chen Hui and Qiang Shun, I concentrated my eyes to see, the wooden man's legs were gone, needless to say, it must have been torn off by the water ghost, at this time, Qiang Shun shouted again: "Yellow River, quickly block him, he hasn't run yet!" ”

As soon as I heard this, I didn't have to tiptoe in the track, so I hurriedly pounced on it, blocked the notch, spread my arms, and paddled up into the water.

"On your right!" Qiang Shun shouted again, and at the same time, I felt a stream of water rushing towards me on the right, I was stunned, this thing, aren't you afraid of the yang energy on my body, and then remembered that when I was a child, I was scratched by the water ghost once, and I hurriedly touched the water flow.

After a few clicks, I came across a soft and cold thing, my heart suddenly trembled, as if it was a cold and cold human face, at this time, I felt a tight right foot and neck, not good, was grabbed by that thing ankle, if it was left alone, I might be scared to pee, I closed my breath, and with a pop I plunged into the water.

Grandma's, dare to catch my footsteps, now I'm not a child, get into the water to touch the hand on the neck of the foot, a touch, this hand is also cold and piercing, before I can react, click, the left foot and neck are also caught, I screamed in the water, a string of blisters came out of the mouth, said it was too late, that was fast, the water ghost grabbed my foot and neck and dragged it into the deep water, I gritted my teeth, you dare to drag me, then I will drag you, I grabbed the two wrists of the water ghost, kicked hard, and pulled the hand up, At the same time, the two cold water of the water ghost suddenly let go of my feet and neck, I followed his hand and touched its head, I felt that this could be a female water ghost, the hair was particularly long, and I grabbed its hair, but it was soaked in the water, and then I kicked my feet and wanted to put my head out of the water for a breath.

However, the water ghost was not idle at this time, after I grabbed its hair, it grabbed my wrist with both hands, and the body sank to the bottom of the water, not wanting me to breathe, wanting to drown me, I was in a hurry, a cat body, and the other hand grabbed its shoulder, at this time I found that this water ghost was naked and naked, and the body was not only cold and biting, but also as smooth as a loach, because it was at night, and I had my eyes closed in the water, I didn't know what it meant at all, but, from the feeling point of viewIt's the person.

Grabbing the water spirit's shoulders and hair, I struggled to lift it to the surface, and by this time we were still some distance from the deep water, and if I stood up in the water, the water would reach my chest at most.

"Hula", the water ghost seemed to be pushed out of the water by me, at the same time, I straightened up, stood up from the water, spit out a mouthful of water first, followed by a big breath, but, before I opened my eyes, the water ghost fell into the water with my two arms, a person and a ghost poofed and planted into the water again, this time, the water ghost seemed to become cunning, struggling in the water, two hands at me headless scratching, but, maybe because of the blister, its nails are not sharp, I didn't even scratch my clothes, but I just scratched my body.

I wanted to lift it out of the water again, but at this time, it was like a snake, hugging me tightly and wrapping around me, and my heart was suddenly anxious, not good, just like going into the water to save people, as long as the rescuer wraps up the rescued, the rescuer will finish playing, and the water ghost is going to follow me at this time, and wants to entangle me and drown.

All right! I immediately put my heart horizontally, you hug me and I will hug you, let go of the water ghost's hair and shoulders, and hugged the water ghost's waist, this feels very strange, like hugging a section of the water man's body, light and slippery.

The body straightened up again, stood up from the water again, took a deep breath again, and looked at it, it seemed to be only four or five meters away from the shore, holding the water ghost, and walking towards the shore.

Don't look at me and the water ghost seem to have been tossing in the water for a long time, in fact, it is less than a minute, on the shore, Qiang Shun is yelling at me, "Huang He, are you okay, are you okay?" ”

At this time, although I was walking towards the shore, I was actually still struggling with the water ghosts on my body, and I didn't have time to answer Qiangshun.

After I staggered ashore with the water ghost, Chen Hui and Qiang Shun both surrounded me, Qiang Shun looked into my arms, and said in amazement: "Yellow River, why did you pick up a fish?" ”

"What?" I first glanced at Qiang Shun, and then looked down into my arms, but no, I was really holding a fish!
