Chapter 77 The well of the bamboo forest is quiet and deep
Saying that, this Ding Hong felt that the white-haired dwarf was a little strange, this bucket actually had no bottom cover, and it felt a little similar to the fairy lady of the Sifang Monument, and just turned his head to ask, he was so frightened that he screamed loudly and jumped into the arms of the flower in the water.
It turned out that behind the white-haired dwarf, in the round hole near the tabletop, a small black snake slowly crawled out of it.
"Hahaha! You don't have to be afraid, this is the treasure I picked up on the slope when I went out two years ago, this little guy usually comes out at night, and the mice around here are all eaten, so I dig a small hole for it, and in a blink of an eye, two years have passed, and they have grown into big snakes. The white-haired dwarf old man grabbed the head of the black snake and said to Ding Hongshui.
"What are you doing in there? Why didn't you come out for a long time, didn't you say that you had water to drink? Where's this tank? The nun Huiqing and the officials came to the door, and when they saw the black snake in their hands, they were so frightened that they took two steps back and went back.
"Hahaha! Maybe it's because of the strange breath in this house today, and it that was sleeping in the room also came out to say hello to everyone. The white-haired dwarf placed the snake's head at the mouth of the cave, only to see it twist its waist and slowly crawl inside.
"Let's not say anything, let's fill the water tank first! It's just this...... Ay! The water flower put Ding Hong on the ground, carried the bucket without a bottom cover, shook his head and sighed and went out.
"Wait for me! I'm going too! Sister! Let's go over and see how he fills the tank. Ding Hong's face was in a cold sweat, so he followed the water flower, took the right hand of the nun Huiqing, and walked towards the courtyard of the five surnames.
At this time, in the courtyard, children were playing in the courtyard, and the chimneys on the roofs of each house suddenly rose with puffs of green smoke and drifted away with the breeze.
The flower in the water carried the bottomless bucket, walked towards the door of the sinus, and watched the old man come out with a sand knife in his right hand, and two long bamboos under his left armpit, and threw them in the courtyard dam, and put his head on the threshold.
"Old lady Dou, this family is so strange, there is only one broken bowl for dinner, I originally thought that I would go into the house to ask for saliva to drink, who knew that this water tank was empty, and I smashed this bowl, and promised to go and fill it for her! Look at the barrel that is leaking again, lend me your barrel, and I'll fill her tank. The water flower left the barrel at the door, and carried the flat pick towards the house.
"You're talking about the old woman of the Zeng family, right? Ay! Since her son was arrested and ran away, he has been in tears all day long, and rarely goes out, he is a poor person! Actually you see her, that's fate, next to the chicken pen next to the water tank in the room, that's our bucket, wait for me to take a few thick bowls out, you bring it to her! The old woman of the Dou family came out of the back room, followed the water flower into the room, and pointed to the side of the water tank and said.
"Thank you, old woman! The bottom cover of her bucket is gone, so let's borrow your one for the time being! It's also strange to say, on the earthen wall of her dining table, there is a hole the size of a fist, which is actually fed with black snakes that specialize in eating rats, but it frightens us, don't you say strange? The flower in the water was hooked with ropes on both sides of the flat pick, and the bucket was hung and went to the back door.
"Alas! Who knows? Since her son left the house, he has rarely come out of the house, and sometimes we knock on the door, but no one answers, and since you say that she is still alive, it is a great blessing! The old woman of the Dou family came to the back door, held on to the stone doorpost, and greeted the neighbors who passed by.
The water flower went out all the way, but she didn't know where the well was? Then he stood on the stone road, turned his head to look at the old woman of the Dou family and shouted: "There are paddy fields everywhere, where is this well?" ”
"You see I have a bad memory! Forget about this as you talk, you come back quickly, along the ridge next to the paddy field behind my house, all the way to this bamboo forest, see a few steps of stone stairs, then there is a well, remember to pick up the water and leave quickly, do not wander in this bamboo forest, so as not to cause a disaster. The old woman of the Dou family explained, pointed to the bamboo forest on the left, and said.
The water flower nodded while humming a little song towards the bamboo forest, only to see that just outside the white courtyard wall, a "cooing" sound came, and then it was the sound of wings fluttering, and a burst of red and yellow feathers fell on his head.
"What is this? In broad daylight, there won't be anything unclean! The flower in the water plucked the chicken feathers from the corner of her eyes, and when she saw the red blood on it, she suddenly felt nervous, and hurriedly carried the bucket to the stone steps under the bamboo forest.
The water flower put the bucket on the stone slab next to the well, only to see that the road was wet, and from time to time there was a piece of soil stained on the stone road, and after the well water dripped down, it obviously felt a little slippery.
Shui Zhonghua picked up the bamboo pole next to it, put the rope of the bucket through the hole in the middle, wrapped it around the bamboo pole behind it, and slowly lowered the bucket down the well.
I only heard the sound of "cripping" dripping water, and on the stone wall next to the well, the water dripping down the well above, dripping down to the bottom of the well from time to time, and the water halo suddenly swept away.
Shui Zhonghua grabbed the bamboo pole, lifted the bucket full of well water, and laid it on the stone road, constantly wiping the sweat from her forehead.
I only heard the sound of the bird's cry, which came from the bamboo forest from time to time, and the flowers in the water looked at the weeds under the ridge on the opposite side, and my heart suddenly felt a little comfortable!
"This place is really good, as long as this demon and monster is eradicated, it should be a paradise, but it's a pity that the people of Yundu Dao are so inexplicably gone, I don't know if this Thousand Ghost Hall is still trapped there?" The flower in the water put the flat pick between the buckets, sat on it and watched the words.
I saw that next to the well, it was the big paddy field just now, and the water shook for a while, and a few fish jumped out of the water, causing a splash.
The water flower wiped the water droplets on her face, and came to the side of the paddy field, only to see that the fish had disappeared, and a black thing in the water swam towards the side of the paddy field.
The flower in the water looked at the disappeared fish, then turned around, bent down and put the flat burden on her shoulder, and swayed away with the bucket.
I saw the big black guy in this paddy field, dragging his long tail to follow the back of the water flower, and walking in the direction of this back in the paddy field.
Ding Hong was outside the bamboo forest behind the house, watching the water flower carrying the bucket back, so he jumped all the way and greeted him with a smile on his face.
When Shuihua saw Ding Hong coming, she put the bucket on the ground, wiped the sweat on her forehead, and fanned her sleeve to cool down.
A scream of "ah" came, Ding Hong threw down the wild flower in his hand, turned his head and ran into the house, the flower in the water turned around tremblingly, and suddenly cold sweat dripped down......
