But the sound of the grass was gone, and the thing stood somewhere. Grandpa teased it again, and Grandpa put down the canvas bag, took out the meat and bones from it, and threw them in front of us not far from us. The sound of grass moving sounded and disappeared. It seems to be quite clever.

Grandpa heard the sound of grass moving in which direction this time. Because of the wind interference, it is difficult to identify where it is. The voice came from the tea bushes on our left.

Grandpa took out another meat bone and threw it into the tea bush on the left, and his mouth still kept "tsk". I saw that my grandfather's eyes had changed, and the light of a star shone in the middle of his eyeball, as if a lamp had been lit inside.

The sound of the grass moving sounded again, and it could be discerned that it was close to the flesh and bones that had been thrown into the tea bushes. Sure enough, I saw a few tea trees on the left shaking, and it was there. My palms were oozing with sweat. Grandpa's eyes were brighter, even more than the moonlight.

Then, I heard the "rattle" of bones being bitten! That thing is eating meat bones.

This time we knew exactly where it was, right next to the meat bone that had just been thrown. But my grandfather and I didn't dare go out into the mess of tea bushes, we had to lure it out a little more.

Grandpa took out another meat bone and threw it closer than before, and then took out another one that was still closest to it, and led it out step by step.

That guy really hit the trick!

After eating the first bone, it tripped over the grass and approached the second, and the rustling of the grass came closer to us. Then there was the sound of "rattling" bones being bitten. After a moment, it paused slightly, and then moved closer to the flesh and bones by the side of the road. That's when I smelled a foul stench, the smell of rotting flesh.

It peeks out a head behind a camphor tree! It's the appearance of a dog! It's just that the teeth are two or three times bigger than the dog's teeth, and the mouth can't be covered, and it's very scary to show it outside the mouth. Grandpa made a no-move gesture to me. We continue to wait for our time. Grandpa had already lifted the scale pole and assumed a whipping pose.

It finally came out from behind the camphor tree.

I was finally able to see what the gas eater looked like! It looks like a dog, but only has two front feet, and the entire lower half of its body has rotted away! The lower body is covered with dense maggots! Later, my grandfather told me that because he didn't have the lower half of his body, he ate something and expelled it immediately, so he couldn't eat enough all the time, and he bit when he saw something.

Seeing the rare opportunity, Grandpa immediately shouted and pumped it at it with a weighing rod. The scale rod hit it on the head, and it immediately let out a wild bark. It dropped the flesh and bones from its mouth and reflexively tried to bite Grandpa. I grabbed the rope in both hands and threw the scale at it, but it didn't.

It immediately turned around and bit me, and I hurriedly turned around and ran. It bit down on the corner of my pants and didn't hurt my leg. I didn't know where I got the courage for a while, but I gritted my teeth and ran with all my might, and I didn't cry. My mind was so clear that I thought that as long as I ran faster than it, it wouldn't be able to bite me.

My grandfather followed me and shouted, "Run!" He smacked it hard with a scale.

It just wouldn't let go, grabbing the corners of my pants and being dragged away by me.

In a short time, I ran down the hill and ran aimlessly along the ridge, and I kept telling myself not to listen. I jumped when I was in a ditch, and I jumped when I was in a ditch, without a moment's pause on my feet. The fields are no more than a foot wide, and there are paddy fields on both sides.

While I was running wildly, a man suddenly blocked my way. I ran and shouted, "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way! ”

In the cold and weak moonlight, the man was less than a meter tall, but he had a long beard, a wooden staff in his arms, and a scarlet cloak.

I thought to myself that there are so many strange things, and at this time I encountered such a strange person blocking my way. At that time, because he was already frightened, he didn't think there was anything strange about the person in front of him, but he was blocked on the ridge. If it were in normal times, even if you met such a person during the day, you would be trembling. And his outfit is quirky, not like it was of this era.
