It's still a draft, and I'll revise it tomorrow, this book is going to end in the near future, and I don't want to finish the book until the end, because my energy can't keep up, so that the book will leave some shortcomings.

Here's the text:

After I staggered ashore with the water ghost, Chen Hui and Qiang Shun surrounded me, Qiang Shun looked at my arms, and asked me in amazement: "Huang He, why did you pick up a fish?" ”

"What?" I first glanced at Qiang Shun, and then looked down into my arms, but no, I actually held a fish, this fish is about half a meter long, and it is black all over its body, and it can still be tossed in the water before, and it is no longer moving at this time, as if only half a life is left.

I walked out a few meters to the shore and threw the fish on the ground, Chen Hui came over and squatted down to look at the fish, and said in his mouth: "Bahu catfish." ”

Qiang Shun also came over to take a look, and without saying a word, I asked him, "Do you see anything with your yin and yang eyes?" ”

Qiang Shun licked his lips, "It's a fish, but it's ...... It's black all over, I'm afraid you can't eat this, right? ”

I said, "Of course you can't eat it, this should be the 'soul fish', the ghost is angry, it's night, if it's daytime, if you give the sun a day, it should smell all over your body." ”

"Then why doesn't it move now?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because it's a soul in the water, so I don't have much power out of the water."

"So what do we do now?"

I looked at Chen Hui and Qiang Shun, and said, "It's better to carry it back, let the old grandmother and their village people see, we have already caught the water ghost, and we will be afraid in the future." ”

Qiang Shun nodded, and Chen Hui said: "I don't think I should take it back, dispose of it as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

I said, "Dao Chief, if we don't bring the fish back, will the people in their village believe that we have caught the water ghost?" ”

Chen Hui glanced at me, "Are you catching water ghosts just to make the people in their village believe it?" ”

I didn't know what to say, so I asked Chen Hui, "What do you say we should do now?" ”

"Dispose of it your way now."

At this moment, I shivered fiercely, followed by sneezing, my whole body was soaked, and I shivered with cold, Chen Hui saw me like this, and hurriedly said again, "Why don't you go back first, change into dry clothes, as for this water ghost, I'll talk about it later." I nodded.

At this time, the season is basically late autumn, so it's simply in the south, if you're in your hometown, you have to wear thick clothes, and you can't stand it like this, plus it's late at night, and you're soaked, and no one can stand it.

I wanted Qiang Shun to hold the soul fish, but Qiang Shun didn't dare, Chen Hui bent down and hugged the soul fish in his arms, beckoning me to hurry back and don't catch a cold again.

Back at the old grandmother's house, the old grandmother had already slept, the old man and the young man, as well as Zhou Hua, were waiting for us, seeing us back with a fish, they all seemed very surprised, Chen Hui hurriedly explained to them that this fish was transformed by a water ghost, and then told me to quickly change my clothes and dispose of the fish quickly.

When I changed my clothes, I felt a little dizzy, and I couldn't stand the cold all over my body, as if I was frozen and was about to catch a cold. When the old man heard this, he hurriedly cooked, saying that we had been busy for most of the night, and that he had made some soup for us, and that the old man had taken his little son to cook soup for us.

A few of us took advantage of the light in the room to look at the soul fish again, at this time, the soul fish seemed to be dying, no different from a dead fish, motionless, Zhou Hua asked us curiously, this is the water ghost?

I replied that it was just a form of a water ghost, and that it should be a long time before anyone could turn themselves into a fish. Chen Hui asked me what to do with this water ghost. I said, I'm afraid it won't work tonight, after coming out of the pool, I feel that my health is not very good, it is better to wait until tomorrow, no need to do things, as long as the soul fish is put under the sun to dry, I will be gone, but at this time, I can't let it get wet, I'm afraid it will come back to life if it gets wet, or run away.

After the soup was ready, we drank two bowls, two bowls of soup in the stomach, I felt a little warmer, but the sleepiness came up, the upper and lower eyelids fought, I couldn't open it, I told the old man and the young man, see if there are any jars and jars at home, put the fish in first, and I will deal with it tomorrow.

At the old man's house, there happened to be an empty jar, put the soul fish into the jar, and the mouth of the altar was pressed with a wooden board, and I wrote the word "seal" with my blood on the wooden board.

This night, I slept very deeply, until the sun was three poles, Chen Hui woke me up, Chen Hui looked very strange at this time, "Huanghe, you get up and take a look, that fish is gone......"

"What?" As soon as I heard this, I immediately fell asleep, jumped up directly from the bed, put on my shoes, and followed Chen Hui to the altar, and saw that the mouth of the altar had been opened.

Chen Hui said to me: "I had breakfast this morning, we saw that you hadn't gotten up yet, so we didn't disturb you, and we didn't move the jar, and later, I saw that the sun outside was very good, so I asked Qiang Shun to open the altar and put it under the sun outside, who knows, after Qiang Shun opened the altar, there was nothing inside." ”

I looked at Chen Hui, and then at Qiang Shun, Zhou Hua, and the old grandmother next to me, the soul fish was gone, could it be that who got up in the middle of the night and let the soul fish go, or ...... I asked my grandmother, "Grandma, what about the grandfather and the uncle?" ”

The old grandmother muttered a few words, and Chen Hui explained: "After eating early in the morning, I went to work in the field. ”

My heart moved, did the old man and the young man not believe that we caught a water ghost, got up in the middle of the night to hide the fish, and took it to the outside of the mountain to sell the fish today? However, this fish man can't be eaten, and if he eats it, it will be bad.

I said to my grandmother, "Grandma, your family didn't touch the fish in the altar in the middle of the night, and this fish can't be eaten." ”

The old lady hurriedly muttered again, and Chen Hui shook his head at me.

I frowned, I put it in yesterday, everything was fine in the morning, and the fish was suddenly gone, what's the matter, could it be that the fish is very deep, and after we caught it, it has been pretending to be dead, and after we fell asleep, it escaped again? But with my blood smeared on the board, will it be able to escape?

I asked my grandmother again for some old wool, and went out with a firewood knife, why did I go, and then become a wooden man, if the water ghost really ran away, he would return to the waterhole, if he was no longer in the waterhole, someone must have gotten it elsewhere.

At noon, I tied up another wooden figure, discussed it with the old woman, and with the old woman's consent, I used her blood to put a drop of blood on the wooden figure, the head, the arms, the legs, and each of the five places.

In the afternoon, I dried the wooden figure for a day, and in the evening, it was still Chen Hui, Qiang Shun, and me, the three of them, came to the waterhole, and the wooden man threw it into the water again and waited, but it waited from late at night until dawn, but there was nothing to drag the wooden man.

The three of them waited for the dawn and returned to the grandmother's house, and happened to meet the old man and the young man going out, I bluntly asked them if they had touched the jar the night before, and the father and son shook their heads and said that they had not touched it, and I said to them that it looked like a fish, but it was actually a ghost, and it was the one who put your family into the water, and the fish could not be eaten, and it could not be sold to other people, and the father and son shook their heads again, and they both promised not to touch the jar, let alone the fish.

I was not reconciled, and slept all day during the day, and at night, I went to the waterhole again, and kept watch until dawn, but found nothing.

On the third day, I kept another day, but I still didn't find anything, Chen Hui persuaded me, maybe the soul fish has disappeared by itself, let's not delay time here, let's leave early, besides, we eat and live at the grandmother's house this day, which has added a lot of trouble to others.

I was very depressed, but there was nothing I could do, even Qiang Shun's yin and yang eyes couldn't see anything abnormal in the pool, but at this time, I could conclude that the pool was safe, but the water ghost didn't know where to go.

When I returned to my grandmother's house, I had no choice but to lie to my grandmother, we had already eliminated the water ghosts and avenged your son and daughter-in-law, and in the future, you villagers would be relieved and bold to go to the waterhole.

The old lady took a deep breath at my words at this time, and a few of us packed up and left the old woman's house.

In a blink of an eye, we walked north for half a month, or because of Zhou Hua's leg, walking and stopping, still in Hunan Province, however, the weather is much colder at this time, and it has entered the middle of October in the lunar calendar, and it should snow in this season, in our hometown.

At this time, since I broke the bronze medal, I have been frustrated several times in a row, and I have doubts about my own exorcism skills, even if I see evil things on the road, I dare not take action easily, I can accept success, but I can't bear failure.

In the first half of November of the lunar calendar, we finally entered Hubei from Hunan, all the way over, to be honest, it was not easy, it was all dependent on asking for food, sometimes it was not enough, a hungry was a day or two, plus the weather turned cold, in the trees or in the ground, I could no longer find any food to eat. However, in the past few years since we left home, we have long been accustomed to the ups and downs.

When he walked to Jingzhou, Zhou Hua wanted to separate from us, let the three of us go directly to Xiaogan, and he went home to Xiangyang, it could be Xiangyang, it could be Xiangfan, I don't remember very well, and it is possible that these two places are the same place.

Zhou Hua asked Chen Hui to leave him an address, and when he went home and raised his legs, he would go to Chen Hui again. Chen Hui disagreed, after all, this was his apprentice, and the injury on his leg seemed to be much worse than before because he walked too much every day, but seriously, for so many days, Zhou Hua had never untied the wound for us to see.

Chen Hui wanted to show Zhou Hua many times, but Zhou Hua found various reasons to cleverly bypass it, for example, he said that he was broken by someone, and his leg was clamped by an old Chinese medicine doctor who seemed to be clamped by two wooden boards, and explained to him that the injured muscles and bones would be moved for a hundred days, and they could not be taken apart within a hundred days.

As soon as he said this, Chen Hui gave up, but once, I inadvertently touched his leg, and on the left and right sides of his calf, I really sandwiched two boards, and after I touched it, it hurt too much for a long time.

At this time, Zhou Hua said that he wanted to go separately with us, Chen Hui disagreed, and finally discussed with me, we went from Jingzhou to Xiangfan, and we also went north, so it was better to send Zhou Hua to the house and go home from Xiangyang to Nanyang.

When I heard it, I didn't object, after all, I have been together for so long, and I have some feelings, and the junction of Xiangyang and Nanyang is also a smooth way. So, we gave up going to Xiaogan and went directly to Xiangyang, the purpose was to send Zhou Hua home, and then we went home.

didn't think about it, sending Zhou Hua home almost became a point of no return for the three of us.
