Chapter 22: The Monster Under the Yangtze River
"I'm sure he's from Old Town Street," he repeated, "Old Town Street isn't as simple as you think, I've learned from him for so many years, and I don't have a lot of information about him, but I'm sure he's from Old Town Street." ”
I also paid attention to it, and I could rush to the Yangtze River area as soon as I walked out of the police station, and according to the information provided by the black-faced police, it was not far from the overpass.
I can't do it in the water, and I remember the last time I had a ghost, and every time I saw the Yangtze River, I would swing.
In the dark Yangtze River, the water roared, and Uncle Wang and others then rushed over and beckoned a few brothers from the coastal generation to go into the water to have a look.
I also know those three brothers, they are people from Fujian, they used to follow the black blind man, these days the black blind man went to Tibet to deal with the affairs of the third master, and the three brothers followed Uncle Wang.
The three of them are tattooed with the sea goddess Mazu, and I heard that some capable young people in Fujian will tattoo this thing, which seems to be able to deter things in the sea.
The three brothers listened to Uncle Wang's instructions, put on the rice bowl and inserted three incense sticks, the so-called feng shui that eats the mountain and kneels to the god of the mountain, and drinks the blessings in the well and worships the fairy of the well.
They worshiped the little dragon king by the river and were about to go into the water, and Officer Liu was worried about causing death, so he asked the three brothers if they needed to tie a rope.
The eldest brother's face was unhappy, he grew up in the sea of the Tan people, and rarely went ashore in his life, and who didn't know how good the water nature was.
Officer Liu's words didn't have to be heeded by the three brothers, and when the boat came to the middle of the Yangtze River, the three brothers shouted, "The water is rippling." ”
The three of them jumped down with a thud.
At this time, a familiar voice came from behind me, "How could this Tan nation have so many stinky rules before, it is really going back and forth." ”
I raised my eyebrows, who would talk nonsense here with a big mouth? I didn't have to look back to know that it was Ryoko, and sure enough, in the crowd, I saw Ryoko talking to his dad, he saw me and beckoned to me, and said a simple word to his dad and came over with a smile.
I said you're so fast?
He patted his chest and said, "I can't die."
Ryoko tilted her head and said, "Is there really my dad talking about in this river?"
"Soul Attraction Ritual," I added.
He nodded thoughtfully.
I was curious and asked, "Do you know this ritual?" ”
I was in a hurry to separate from the old man Cai Wen just now, and I didn't have time to ask about this ceremony.
He touched the back of his head, "Remember, this thing seems to be contributing with blessings, when I was in Tibet, I had nothing to do when it snowed heavily and closed the mountains, so I used my pile of broken books to mess around." ”
Time passed with difficulty, and soon the three brothers swam up to get their breath, because we were on shore and could not hear what they were saying on board.
The boss shook his head at Uncle Wang, meaning that he had not found it.
Uncle Wang turned on the walkie-talkie and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Uncle Wang, if you don't see the stone statue, will it be moved?"
Uncle Wang said that the water in this area of the Yangtze River is gentle, and it is impossible to wash away, so you can go down and have a look, and pay attention to safety.
The three brothers jumped down together, but this time something happened.
Suddenly, the river near the boat boiled violently, and the whole hull shook violently.
The people on the shore were frightened and ran away.
"What's the situation?" Uncle Wang was calm and asked on the walkie-talkie.
"I don't know, there seems to be some big guy down here."
As soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly saw a huge black figure climb onto the boat.
Ryoko exclaimed, ", what a big black snake." ”
The light of the ship hit the dark shadow, and it was clearly a giant snake the size of a bucket.
The people on board were frightened and ran into the cabin, where the serpent struck several times to no avail, and finally turned its attention to us.
"It's not good, everyone retreats," Uncle Wang reacted the latest time, and a group of people were so frightened that they almost peed their pants, and they fled up the slope with a rolling belt.
The serpent swam over, and the speed was comparable to that of us, and it was crawling towards us.
Ryoko was in a hurry, took off her coat and lit it with a lighter, waving it at the snake.
Sure enough, the snake stopped, coiling in fear and hesitating in place.
I quickly took off my clothes and waved at the giant snake a little next to Ryoko's burning clothes.
Uncle Wang said that everyone takes off their clothes, and if they can't run away, we will use fire to drive it.
Everyone imitated the method of illuminating the son, and suddenly the fire lit up.
Everyone waved their lives, and they didn't care that the burning fibers on their clothes burned their skin.
The giant snake was frightened, turned around and burrowed into the river again.
Ryoko and I had palpitations, and my legs were weak, and I could already feel the sound of its breathing just now.
Uncle Wang used the walkie-talkie to ask how the people on the boat were doing.
The result was good, except for the three brothers of the Tan people, the rest of them were fine.
"Are they dead?" Ryoko Mu pushed me in a daze, his face pale.
I was covered in cold sweat, and I shook my head blankly and said, "I don't know, now my feet are swinging." ”
He smiled wryly, "Damn, this thing is harder than a ghost." ”
I said it wouldn't be the one that came out of that swamp!
Ryoko nodded, lit a cigarette and said it might be.
Uncle Wang and the others asked people to make torches and began to look for the three brothers along the river, but they did not find them.
I can't explain this to the black blind man.
Liangzi's body has not fully recovered, Uncle Wang said let's go back first, they have enough manpower, we have made a lot of efforts, and there is a day tomorrow.
I said that if the snake was not killed first, no one would dare to go down.
Uncle Wang said that this is a difficult problem, you can leave it alone, go back and rest.
Ryoko and I took a taxi and went back, and by the time we got home, it was already a little bit closer.
As a result, my shop was still open, and my mother fell asleep in front of the computer desk when I pushed the door in.
I whispered to wake my mom, and my mom was startled, lifted her wrinkled face, smiled awkwardly and said she had fallen asleep.
I was a little distressed and angry, "Mom, on such a cold day, you will catch a cold here, and your legs are swollen so badly, I will help you into the house." ”
Her legs were numb, so I carried her into the room, and my mother lay on the bed and looked at the marriage certificate on the wall and said, "Don't learn from your dad when you're busy, forget this home, you know?" ”
I said Mom, in fact, I am busy during this period of time, I don't have time to take care of you here for the time being, I feel distressed when I look at me, and I want you to take care of it, so I'll send you home.
She nodded and said that it was okay, and the medicine from the hospital was also taken, and she went back to accompany your grandmother.
I said I'd send you back tomorrow morning.
The next morning I bought some things for my grandparents and sent my mother to the car, before leaving my mother said remember to take care of Sister Bao'er, your grandfather was a granddaughter of Bao'er before his death, and before leaving, he told your father to protect her.
I patted my chest and said with a smile, "Mom, I will definitely protect Sister Bao'er." ”
In fact, there are some compulsions in my heart, and I don't know who will protect whom.
After sending my mother away, I called Uncle Wang and asked if the snake had been solved.
He said it's going on here, come here.
"What about the three men who are black and blind?"
Uncle Wang said that he had found it, and the three of them were unharmed, and they saw the giant snake after they went into the water, so they kept hiding under the water, and told us that they had determined the location of the stone statue.
I said yes, I'll be right over.
As soon as I hung up the phone, I heard someone call my name, only to see Ryoko waving to me in his father's jeep.
In the car, I was worried about his health and said it was better not to go.
He said that this thing was so strange, there was no reason not to go.
Soon we came to the riverside, Uncle Wang and the others did not sleep, and when they saw us coming, they pointed to a pile of pork on the shore and said, "They all got poison, and I don't believe it will come when it spills blood." ”
To be honest, I thought it was a bit inappropriate, but I didn't say much.
As he spoke, he made people start pouring pig's blood, and everyone hid away when they saw this situation.
When I saw this, I felt that this method was really not feasible, why, if you think about it, the water is flowing, and the water in this area is relatively turbulent during the day, and this pig's blood has just been splashed down, and it will be far away in a few seconds.
Uncle Wang also realized this problem, so he could change the plan and find someone to go to the flyover to splash one scoop at a time.
And just when a few of his subordinates were about to lift it, suddenly there was a movement on the water, and the giant snake really surfaced.
Just as we were cracking our mouths and laughing, a mutation happened that shocked us.
It actually swam towards the pillar of the first overpass, and had the idea of climbing up.
I was shocked and said, "Grass, it's not good, it's going to climb the flyover." ”
