Chapter 5 Lice
The old man continued to speak, in fact, this matter has no result at all, and the more you know, the more questions you will have. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but I also got an answer about my strange illness that is not an answer.
The follow-up happened three months after my grandfather went to sea in the harsh winter. My mother received the news of my grandfather's return, so I went to the pier with my father to pick him up.
There are vendors selling fruits, melons and vegetables along the Qiaokang Bridge. Under the Kukang Bridge is a river, the famous Jiushan River. The reputation of this river in the old W city is not good, it is clear and pleasant, but there are many people who drown or break their legs. The Jiushan River leads directly to the Oujiang River, and our W City is a big city in southern Zhejiang surrounded by the entire Oujiang River
"Curtain white! What are you doing in a hurry! Coming here at noon? Didn't my dad return in the afternoon? At this time, my mother was on the bluestone road by the bridge. My mom is what everyone calls the 'boss lady'. She was really beautiful when she was young, she wore two braids, and she wiped the sweat on her forehead at this time, and looked at the sun in the middle of the sun and said aggrievedly.
"I don't know! My dad told me to wait for him! "The tall and thin young man next to him is my father. The lips were red and the teeth were white, and the two were only in their early twenties at the time.
"White ...... No! Father-in-law said to wait here? "My mother pursed her lips and almost called out the words 'white knife'! It's not appropriate to call your father-in-law by her nickname in front of your husband.
In the 80s, there was little to do in this old city! No TV! No phone! On weekdays, it's nothing more than jumping erasers, throwing away small sandbags, and drawing a square to jump there! But it is also the childhood fun of the older generation, laughing.
Seeing that there were people "jumping on the grid" on the side of the bridge, my mother was not pregnant with me in her belly at that time, and she was very naughty like a child king. Ignoring his father, sighing beside him. Laughing and running into the pile of half-grown children, he said, "Let my sister play too!" Sister, I was a master of dancing this when I was a child! ”
"Dance! You're so old, you're not ashamed! ”
"Yes! You're so big, the house you painted collapsed! ”
"That's it! No cheek, rubbing the skin of the feet, no shame, no shame! ”
Suddenly, a big girl of eighteen or nineteen popped up, and these half-grown children knew that they were strong enemies! Most of the games will lose, which one is willing to play!
"Yo! Sister, I'm playing with you, but I look up to you! Still not happy? The mother grabbed the boy's ear, which was the most coaxing, and was very angry
"Huh?!" The child was shivering in pain and struggling desperately. The old mother was glad to glance at the house painted by the children, and laughed in surprise and said, "You little, the painting of the house is crooked like this!" The water is a little low! ”
It turns out that the house on the ground is sloping! Painting a house is basically a nine-square-grid painting method, and after painting, it looks like a scarecrow with its feet together! And this house is tilted nearly 45 degrees! This painting skill is really bad enough.
"You stinky bastard, what kind of eyes do you have, I drew them so straight that it was like measuring with a ruler. How can it be tilted? The child, who covered his ears, grinned and cursed
Mom was so happy that she didn't let go of her hand. Say "See for yourself!" It's either that you're slanted or your eyes are slanted! are all crooked and follow the trend like wicker? ”
"Where is it slanted! I think it's your sister's eyes... The eyes are slanted! ”
"Yes! The house is drawn straight! It's like your waist! "A group of children over there were gossiping about their mothers, and they were stunned that the house was straight!
My mother was about to get angry but felt a pat on the shoulder, and when she turned her head, she saw her husband frowning and looking at the chalk-drawn house!
"Don't mess with them. I received a call from my father, and I arrived with my father-in-law immediately! Dad pulled her aside and said
The group of children saw that this fierce girl was pulled and 'boomed' and scattered, for fear that they would be pinched like that baby! And don't pinch the baby, the running shoes are lost!
Naturally, the mother ignored the children. Turning his head and saying suspiciously, "Curtain white?!" What's going on!? Aren't my father and father-in-law on a boat? How to wait in Kukang Bridge? Do they make cars? ”
Dad shook his head and said he didn't know. And my mother knew that she would ask in vain. Look around yourself. The crowd on the street was as lively as ever. Just in her eyes, this world? Or maybe the place where you are standing is a little sloping? Mom is very strange, no matter how you look at it, it seems to be standing halfway up the mountain?
"Huh? This ship is the old square-headed 'Sino-US No. 1', why did it come here? ”
"What is this old man going to do? Could it be that they are here to hand out food stamps? ”
The surrounding crowd was talking, and the name of my grandfather's old square head was thunderous in W City at that time. A big boat is slowly approaching on the river! Mom looked at the ship in amazement! I don't understand what my dad is doing for a while? Logically, the water level by the bridge is very low, just look at the women who are washing and photographing their clothes by the river with gavels! The old man's head is kicked by the donkey? Don't you want to put the 'Sino-US No. 1' stranded here?
At the bow stood an old man with a goatee, dressed in a black robe. It was my grandfather who was in the harsh winter. The old man stood at the bow of the ship and looked anxiously left and right, as if he was not afraid of the ship running aground.
My mother watched the people around her greet her grandfather in a chaotic manner, but my grandfather, who had always won the hearts of the people, ignored it at this time. Mom thought he was looking for himself and shouted, "Daddy!?" I am here! ”
There was a loud and piercing sound. The huge bow of the 'Zhongmei No. 1' finally washed up on the shore and ran aground. Two-thirds of the boat was under the bridge, and the rest of the boat washed ashore and crashed into the stone wall!
"Ahh You're a short-lived!! The woman who was washing clothes over there was frightened, and then she came back to her senses and pointed to the bow of the boat and cursed, and when she saw that it was my grandfather, she quickly shrank her head and did not dare to make a sound. But my grandfather was anxiously looking around as if he hadn't heard it, not knowing what he was looking for.
Mom and Dad's faces are green! 'Sino-US No. 1' is the lifeblood of the old man. Just arching headlong into the shore? How much does it cost to repair this?!
"Bell bell!" On the bridge, I rode a three-wheeled cart carrying vegetables. The cart was loaded with all kinds of vegetables, and in those days, it was natural to be overloaded regardless of what was overloaded. That pile of vegetables was almost twice as big as a cart. And there was a woman sitting next to the pile. The woman was dressed in flowers, blue cloth, and wore large braids like twisted flowers. At first glance, it is a representative of ordinary rural women. And this woman's belly bulged out like a big face plate, obviously pregnant with Rokka. Look at this belly, it is estimated that she has been pregnant for seven or eight months!
The "bell bell" cart rang the bell and rode right to the house where the children had drawn with chalk.
"Not good!" Mom's face changed and she screamed.
Before the words fell, something happened over there. The cart tilted to the right, and the driver seemed to be unaware. Still humming a song and pedaling the car.
"Oops" only to hear a scream, and the woman in the cart fell out. The cart has just reached the bridge. The piers of the 80s are not high, and the wheels of the board cars are high! And the woman took it headlong and went directly over the bridge pier to the dark green Jiushan River to plant.
"Ahh The people around were almost shocked! This bridge is about ten meters away from the river below! And the river can make Zhongmei No. 1 run aground, it must be no more than two meters deep! I'm afraid that this woman will die if she goes headlong.
And the most excited is my mother! Even though he was on the side, he couldn't go to the rescue, so he jumped straight to the ground.
I only heard the sound of "poof", but there was no "bang" from the water? The old mother and his wife, along with the surrounding crowd, crowded on the side of the bridge.
I saw that the woman landed on the canopy above the wheelhouse of the 'Zhongmei No. 1'! There were several layers of quilts on the canopy! The canopy of the boat was a thin layer of iron plates, and there were several layers of quilts, and the woman fell on it and shook it, but she was unharmed!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this scene. The strangest thing was the grandfather at the bow of the boat. At this time, he wiped his sweat, his eyes were gentle, and a relieved smile appeared on the corner of his mouth......
With the man on the cart, the old man on the other side is very grateful, and everyone sighs that the woman is lucky and has not caused a tragedy!
"King of the Essence Sea! King of the Sea! He shouted for a while. It wasn't until a long time before the crowd slowly dispersed!
Out of the cab was a man in a white robe, who was my grandfather's white knife. Said "Boss! You see, this ship is also stranded and worn! Although I support this, I don't know how that thing will take revenge on us! ”
My grandfather's face was a little pale at this time, and he pulled out a large front door from his trouser belt, and the match cut several times before he lit a cigarette. Said: "Lao Tzu saved that thing, whatever!" Let Lao Tzu see death and not save me, it is better to take a gun and crash me......"
"Daddy! Father! "Mom and Dad are waving and saying hello on the shore!
……………
Grandpa rubbed his temples and told his daughter about the ghost ship. said, "! Nearly 100 of Lao Tzu's brothers have folded in! ”
My mom is the kind of person who breaks the casserole and asks the truth. She asked urgently, "What about later?" What happened? What about the coffin? And how do you know today that the pregnant woman is going to fall off the bridge? ”
Grandpa glanced at the grandfather on the side, and the two sighed. It turned out that it was all the fault of greed. At that time, the ghost ship disappeared in peace. Nearly a hundred water bastards under his hands also disappeared out of thin air! The huge 'Sino-US No. 1' left only two old men. My grandfather discussed with my grandfather to see the coffin that had slipped down from the ghost boat. The two old men have been mixed with water for most of their lives, and their guts are indeed quite fat!
Grandpa leaned the boat towards the coffin, which was black and floating in the water, dropped the anchor and went over to help. Grandpa wanted to cast a net to cover it and drag it up. The heart said that if it was just lice, throw it back into the sea, and if not, remove the net and touch the box!
With a "bang", the two finally dragged the coffin to the bow of the boat! The faces of the two were also ecstatic, and they didn't care that they were tired like dogs at the moment. Take two steps and run towards the net, and look closer. The coffin lay quietly in the fishing net, and the two of them were trying to find something to pry it open.
Suddenly, the coffin board slipped to the side with a 'bang'. This scared the two old men enough. Grandpa's gall is fat. He took a flashlight and shone it, and there was no movement.
Grandpa's face turned pale and said, "Be in charge!" You said that tonight, we are more evil than all the evil things we have encountered in this life! ”
Grandpa just wanted to answer his words. Suddenly, there was a 'pop', and a black thing in the coffin squatted and sat up. It was a pale corpse, with a huge white face, which took up a third of the entire body, and there were black and flickering pustules on it. Covering the entire face of the giant, most of them leaving dark red blood. The most terrifying thing is the huge protruding eyes, both of which are whites and no eyes, like a pair of bleached ping-pong balls hanging on their faces.
That thing squatted up suddenly, and even if my grandfather was calm again, he was so scared that he almost peed! 'Wow' yelled and fell out of the way.
Grandpa was even worse, and hurriedly crawled back. But the splint slipped very much, and I fell a few steps back. Rolling and crawling yelled: "Ghost, ghost!!"
The monster in the net crouched there motionless, and the silence was terrifying. For a while, there was only the sound of wind and rain in my ears.
The monster rolled its eyes, and seemed not to be angry except to sit in the coffin. Time passed slowly, and the monster didn't move anymore!
At first, the two old men trembled with fright, each carrying a gun in his hand. Grandpa looked at the monster with half-closed eyes, and the thing didn't seem to be angry at all. I thought to myself, is it dead? It's not right to think about it! Lying in a coffin must have died. But why did you sit up?
After a long time, the monster was still like that. Grandpa got up with courage and walked on his legs that trembled like a sieve. Cautiously move towards the monster. The mouth reads: "Lao Tzu is the head of the water." Lao Tzu is the king of the fine sea. Lao Tzu is not afraid of anything! Lao Tzu let you go back to the water, don't come to me again! ”
This time. Grandpa took his cat to the monster, but he didn't dare to come forward. During this time, he kept watching the monster move, squaaning there as if he was really dead?
By this time he had grasped the rope of the net. He snorted and tried to pull the monster up with the coffin. But one person couldn't do it at all, so Grandpa hurriedly went up to help, and the two finally dragged it up and threw it hard. There was a 'poof' sound, and the monster was thrown back into the sea. As soon as the voice fell, he hurriedly withdrew the fishing net in his hand!
After doing this, he almost lost his strength, and sat down on the bow of the boat. At this time, my body was sweating profusely as if I had taken a shower. Grandpa gave a thumbs up at this time. said: "The master deserves to be the master!" ”
After a while, the two of them got up and went to the bow of the ship to raise the anchor. When the anchor was closed, my grandfather had to look around with both eyes, for fear that something evil would happen again.
Grandpa was wary of the sea around him. Suddenly, the black coffin floated in the sea. The monster sat in the middle of the coffin, a pair of terrifying eyes staring straight at him.
Grandpa shuddered when he saw the monster, the thing he thought was dead! actually looked in his direction, but the corners of his mouth cracked a weird smile. Grandpa was suddenly frightened, and hurriedly shouted: "White knife!" Hurry up, hurry up, go away! Don't stop for a moment! ”
