Chapter 7: Spitting Smoke and Summoning Spirits
Killing people is a thing in modern society, no matter how big you find a reason, you can't escape the punishment of the law, as soon as I heard that Wang Erniang was beaten to death, I also learned from my father's appearance and probed under her snort, and I didn't get angry at all.
I was frightened, my father beat people to death but was watched by dozens of pairs of eyes, if this is spread out, it is estimated that the two of them will never see each other in their lives.
Dad's face was dead ash, and his body froze there without moving, but grandpa said that he was not afraid, so he asked me and my father to stand at the gate of the courtyard and block the gate, then lit the cigarette pouch, took a deep breath, and then spit out the smoke on Wang Erniang's face.
My dad and I stood in the doorway and looked at it, but we didn't dare to ask, and we looked at it with big eyes and small eyes.
The white smoke spit out of Grandpa's mouth was scattered on Wang Erniang's face, and there was no wind at that time, but the smoke that blew away all got into Wang Erniang's nostrils impartially, and the effort was almost finished in the blink of an eye.
Where have I ever seen this kind of scene, I didn't dare to take a breath when I saw it, and covered my mouth, for fear of disturbing Wang Erniang's smoking.
The smoke in the air was sucked up by Wang Erniang, and the grandfather patted her stomach with his hand, only to feel that Wang Erniang's face turned blue all of a sudden, and her head tilted to the side, and she began to vomit, and the familiar fishy smell entered the nose again, and I couldn't help but want to cover my nose, but at this moment, the door behind me suddenly "banged", as if someone was rushing the door.
Grandpa said in a deep voice, "Can't let it in!" ”
I don't know who my grandfather is talking about, I only know that the thing outside is extremely powerful, and it hit the courtyard door all at once, and my shoulder hurts, if it wasn't for my father's top, I would have been able to do it a long time ago.
Fortunately, that thing didn't last long, and there was no movement in less than three breaths, and at this time, Wang Erniang actually breathed a long sigh of relief and got up from the ground.
After Wang Erniang woke up, she looked at the three of us in a bit of confusion and said, "Where is this, why did I get here?" ”
"Don't worry about these things for now, just say that you remember what happened recently in your mind." Grandpa said.
Wang Erniang rubbed the position where her father had just hit, and thought for a long time before saying, "I remember that Yingzi came to me at home and said a few words to me, and then I don't remember anything else." ”
"What?" My grandfather and I said in unison.
Wang Erniang said: "It seems to be asking if I want to be a man or something, if I want to, don't bolt the old rooster at the door at night." ”
The three of them looked at each other, Wang Erniang's man was also drowned in the river, her man was a drunkard, once he went out and drank too much and went back to the village to listen to the sound of the Yellow River and treat the Yellow River as a thatched house.
Grandpa nodded thoughtfully after hearing this, and said, "Go back, don't believe her words, you should bolt the old rooster at night, don't come out when you hear anything, you know?" ”
Wang Erniang rubbed her head and left, muttering as she walked, why did her head hurt so much.
The three of them stood in the courtyard and were stunned around the puddle of things that Wang Erniang vomited, all that a normal person can vomit out in his stomach is to die some undigested food or sour water or something, but what Wang Erniang vomited was a pile of river sand.
This pile of river sand was as if it had just been fished out of the bottom of the river, wet, and exuded a fishy smell, which was the same as what I had smelled in Da Zhuang's house and Aunt Li before, and my stomach was tumbling.
"No wonder this group of bastards are so rushing, they dare to be doused with dirty water."
Dirty water pouring our hearts is the same as that of ghosts, according to the situation just now, Wang Erniang is not the only one who is confused by Yingzi.
Could it be that Yingzi is really the mother of the Yellow River?
And what happened to the retribution that Wang Erniang said about his father and grandfather just now?
I asked the doubts in my heart, and my grandfather's face was crooked, "Donkey eggs, people who are doused with dirty water believe what they say?" ”
Looking at grandpa and father, both of them unanimously denied it, but I still felt that they must have something to hide from me, but since they didn't want to say that I had no other way, I had to divert the topic and said: "Then what to do, Wang Erniang is awake, what should others do?" ”
Grandpa was silent, looking at the sky with cloudy eyes, and only after a long time did he slowly speak: "The Yellow River Niangniang and the ghost lady are together, I'm afraid the village won't be able to get through tonight." ”
I nervously said, "Will that person come to the door at night?" ”
Dad was a little puzzled and said, "Who's coming?" ”
Grandpa glanced at him and said, "Come into the house with me, and the second child will go to get food." ”
I sat in the kitchen with some anger, and my grandfather pushed me away when there was something critical, and the more he did this, the more it proved that he was hiding something from me, and through the performance of my grandfather in the past few days, I found that I couldn't see through him more and more.
An old boatman in the Yellow River, fished out some corpses, how could there be so many gods and gods, especially the hand spitting smoke to summon spirits, it is simply a means of immortals, what has he been doing all these years, and what is he hiding from my father.
The more I sat there, the more angry I became, and the match in my hand unconsciously scratched my head, and when I took out another match and struck it, it still didn't strike.
The matches were drawn one after another, and none of them caught fire, as if this box of matches was damp, and the matches were black, and I felt that something was wrong, and it didn't rain, why was the tide so bad.
And sitting in the kitchen at this time, I feel that the moisture inside is very strong, and there are traces of soaking in water on the walls, and when I go up, the wall seems to seep water at any time.
At that time, I felt a sigh in my heart, and faintly remembered something, so I took out a windproof lighter from my pocket, which was bought from the county town to give to my grandfather, but my grandfather didn't want it, and said that the smell of fire when I lit a cigarette with a match was the essence of smoking, and I kept it on my body.
With trembling hands, the flame made me feel calmed down temporarily, but this calming lasted less than a second before I heard a "whirring" on the back of my neck, as if someone had blown a breath and the lighter went out.
My bones were cold, my hairs stood on end, tears were rolling in my eyes, and I cried out: "Grandpa, grandpa!" ”
Before the words fell, I heard a rush of footsteps outside the door, grandpa and dad rushed in in with a panicked face, and hurriedly asked me what was wrong, I sat there with a lighter and would not move, my teeth clucked, grandpa stood in the kitchen and looked around, his face sank like water, and he ran out with me in his arms, and then locked the kitchen door.
When I got out of the kitchen, I felt a little better, but my throat was tight and I couldn't speak, and my grandfather said to my father, "You go quickly, I'm afraid it's too late." ”
Dad answered and ran out, Grandpa grabbed my ear and kept calling my name, and when my mind was completely stable, I pointed to the kitchen and said, "Master, that thing has been hiding in the kitchen!" ”
As soon as my grandfather knocked my hand off and said don't be blind, he turned around and led me into the hall, but when I entered the room, I saw a dark figure squatting in the corner of the house.
I was really stupid by this succession of things, my mind was blank, my grandfather stepped in front of me, pointed a cigarette gun at the black shadow and said: "What kind of demons and evils, dare to come to my white old ghost's house to make waves, Lao Tzu will beat you now!" ”
Grandpa rushed over with a cigarette gun as he spoke, but at this time, the black shadow actually spoke.
"Don't fight, it's me!"
As soon as the words came out, my grandfather and I were stunned, the voice was a little familiar, but we couldn't hear who it was.
The black shadow was originally hiding in the dark corner of the backlight, and when he spoke, he began to walk out, and my grandfather hurriedly took two steps back to block in front of me, and when the black shadow stood under the light, I couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, it was the old village chief!
The reason why I can recognize it as the old village chief is completely based on my voice and dress, and I am still wearing the clothes I wore when I appeared that day, but my face is no longer human, there is no flesh at all, the folded skin is wrapped in bones, the eye sockets are deep, and the eyeballs are like dead fish eyes, and I can't tell whether it is a person or a ghost.
The old village chief has never shown up since he appeared at the same time as Yingzi that day, how did he do this.
Grandpa hurriedly helped him to the chair, and before the old village chief could sit down, he opened his mouth and said, "Yingzi, she is not human!" ”
