022 Haunted Land (3)
As time went by, Dali and I won more and more money, and my courage became bigger and bigger as the amount of money I won. Each bet went from $10 to $100.
And Dali is more ruthless, every time he will press all the money he has won, just like that, Dali now has more than 1,000 money on the table, but this kid is not satisfied, if I hadn't pulled him several times in secret, he might have pressed it all directly.
Although the dealer has been losing, but his money seems to be lost, every time he loses the money on the table, he will be in the black bag behind him again.
"Whoa, whoa!"
There was a rooster crowing in the distance, and before I knew it, Dali and I had been playing Pai Gow for a night.
The crowd around the table, after hearing the rooster crowing, all hurried away, and after a while, I was left with Dali and the thin man sitting in the village.
"Guy, I'm lucky today, I can't play tomorrow, come to me if you want to play, my name is Han Weifeng." After the man finished speaking, he put away the poker on the table and walked towards a house with an open door with a black handbag on his back.
I looked at the streets that had just been crowded with people, but now they were empty, and I didn't know what was going on, and I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't say it.
"One hundred, two hundred, three hundred............ Two thousand five, two thousand six! ”
The sound of vigorously counting the money pulled back my thoughts, looking at the excitement on Dali's face, and the thick RMB in his hand, I shook my head when I looked at the big bill in my hand that was less than five hundred, and said to Dali: "Dali, has the money been checked, let's go home after the check, the chickens are crowing!" ”
"It's done, haha, now there's an explanation, by the way, Gao Tian, don't talk nonsense when you go back. Otherwise, if the old man in my family knows, he will have to beat me half to death!" ”
"Got it, hey, did you see the dish I was carrying!" After saying a strong word, I suddenly realized that the dish that I had been bringing back with me was missing.
He glanced at me vigorously and said, "Don't look for it, Gao Tian, how much money did we win, and are we still missing that dish?" As he spoke, he walked vigorously towards the broken bicycle on the side of the road.
When Dali and I left, all the lights in the village that were originally brightly lit were turned off. There were no lights, and it was pitch black.
As soon as Dali and I stepped out of the village, a fog was lifted in front of us, and the fog was so big that we couldn't see our fingers.
"Gao Tian, you put on the back seat of my bicycle, let's not get separated!" After entering the fog, Dali hurriedly shouted.
When I heard this, I quickly reached out and grabbed the back seat of the bicycle, and just like that, the two of us slowly leaned on and felt the slow movement forward.
I don't know how long I walked, but the fog suddenly went away, and a glimmer of morning light shone on me and Dali.
Looking at the sun rising in the east and the fog in the distance, I touched my clothes wet with the fog, looked at the nearby village with a puzzled face, and asked Dali: "Dali, how can such a big fog drift away?" ”
"How do I know this, I've already arrived in the village anyway, let's go home first, I'll look for you later!" As he spoke, he vigorously pushed the broken bicycle and walked in the direction of his home.
Since Dali's house and my house are not the same street, I looked at Dali, who was leaving with excitement on his face, sighed, and turned to walk towards another road.
But I had only walked a few steps before I turned around and looked at the fog that had just drifted away, and I had an indescribable feeling in my heart.
When I walked into the yard, my grandfather had already gotten up and was sweeping the fallen leaves in the yard.
"Grandpa, why did you get up so early?"
Seeing that my grandfather didn't see me walk into the yard, I spoke first.
When my grandfather heard my voice, he stopped what he was doing and looked up at me, but when he saw me, the broom in his hand slipped off his hand.
"Gao Tian, where did you go last night?" My grandfather didn't care about the broom that had fallen on the ground, and walked quickly towards me with a nervous face.
When I saw my grandfather's appearance, I scratched my head and reached into my pocket with my right hand, trying to pull out the money I had just won.
But when I put my right hand in my pocket, my right hand, which should have touched the money corner, was like touching the ashes. I was immediately shocked, and quickly turned my pocket over, only to see that the pocket that was originally full of money was now full of paper ashes.
"Shhh I gasped as I looked at the paper ashes floating in the wind, and I couldn't tell what I felt in that strange village just now, and I fully understood with the appearance of the paper ashes.
When my grandfather saw the paper ashes in my pocket, his face changed suddenly, and he came to me in a few steps and whispered, "High heaven, stand still, I'll come when I go." After speaking, the grandfather went straight to the side room.
After listening to my grandfather's words, although I was a little scared, I didn't dare to move even a single step, and stood in place waiting for my grandfather's return.
After about three or four minutes, Grandpa came out with a copper basin filled with clean water, and at the same time held a willow branch full of willow leaves in his hand.
When my grandfather came to me with a copper basin, he put the willow branch in his hand into the water in the copper basin and moistened it, and then hit my body with the wicker sticks that had been wet.
Although my grandfather didn't use much strength, I felt a piercing pain when the wicker hit me, but as the wicker continued to whip, the pain disappeared.
It wasn't until I was beaten nearly thirty times that my grandfather looked up at me, then he breathed a sigh of relief, put the wicker into the copper basin, and asked with a reproachful face: "Gao Tian, where did you go last night, and you came back with a face full of ghosts?" ”
"Hell?" I listened to my grandfather's words and took a sharp look at the clear water in the copper basin, but the reflection in the water did not change in the slightest.
"Don't look at it, I used wicker to disperse the ghost qi on your body just now, what else are you looking at!" Grandpa paused, took a few steps in front of me, and spoke again: "Tell me, where did you go last night?" ”
"I ......" Before I could finish my words, a loud and hurried voice came from outside the gate.
"High heaven, high heaven!"
I followed the sound and saw Dali standing outside the door with an anxious face, and shouted to me urgently: "Gao Tian, come out quickly, I have something urgent to find you!" ”
Looking at the pale and anxious face on Dali's face, I knew what he was looking for me, so I said, "Dali, you come in quickly, I'll talk about it later!" ”
Listening to my words, he hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in.
When Dali walked into the yard, I suddenly saw a piece of blue-purple black gas on Dali's forehead, and I couldn't help but jump in my heart.
"Vigorously, stand there and don't move!" After Dali walked into the yard, my grandfather hurriedly picked up the copper basin on the ground and hurried towards Dali.
Although Dali stopped moving after hearing my grandfather's words, he looked at me with a puzzled face and said, "Gao Tian, what are you letting me stand for?" ”
"If you don't move, don't move, where is so much nonsense." I followed my grandfather to Dali's side, and watched him use the wicker in his hand to constantly whip Dali, whose face was full of doubts.
"Okay, tell me where you two boys went last night?" After Grandpa finished beating with wicker, he asked with a straight face.
"Uh, this!" Hearing my grandfather's words, he was dumbfounded and speechless.
Looking at Dali's appearance, I smiled and said, "Grandpa, Dali and I saw a village last night when we came back from the trail to town............ After the fog came out, Dali and I went home separately, so there is no need to talk about the rest, right? ”
"The village? Fog? I said that you two boys are really bold, what kind of village is that! The two of you obviously broke into the ghost field of the mass grave, and I said that you both have this large amount of ghost energy on your body! "Grandpa, after listening to my words, smashed his mouth, and looked at me and Dali with a strange look on his face.
After listening to Grandpa's words, Dali and I were already wet with cold sweat on our backs, and I was still stronger because of the previous events. But he was so frightened that his teeth kept chattering, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Grandpa Gao, then there will be nothing wrong with me and Gao Tian, right?" ”
"It's hard to say, who let you win their money!"
