"Xiao Ning? Bring a gourd. Go to your second uncle? He is the insect king Xiao Guan...; …; Grandpa's voice came.
Two masked heads suddenly peeking out of the window? Shouted: "The child is down there? Are you going to chase it? Don't let him run. ”
Those two have a poisonous light in their eyes? I'm deeply imprinted in my mind? I will never forget it.
"Live? Xiao Ning! "I told myself in my heart. Pick up the yellow gourd as fast as you can? Run ahead in the night.
Am I running ahead with all my might? On the road? Vehicles and crowds in front of you? Hot and dry air? Shortness of breath.
I only remember my mother's words? Run ahead with all your strength. I don't know how long I ran? How many people were hit.
Finally stopped in an abandoned alleyway? Are you sure the person who is tracking me hasn't caught up? Just gasping out? Hide in the shadows. Mosquito bites? Let the tears fall? Hold the yellow gourd and the bamboo tube tightly.
How many dollars do I have in my pocket? Don't dare to mess around? I only bought a steamed bun for the night.
It's the middle of the night. I hesitated for a long time? I sneaked back to the place where I was separated from my grandfather. People coming in and out of the hotel? Only there is no trace of my mother and grandfather.
I waited for days. There is no sign of them. Do I have an ominous premonition in my heart? Something happened to them. Who the hell is it? Why are they targeting me? It's a real headache.
But the scariest question at the moment? Not figuring out these? It's how to live. And if in a small town? Can I go down to the river to catch fish? Picking wild fruits in the mountains? Will not starve.
But here are the big cities? Once the money runs out? I'll be a wandering beggar. Starved to death on the side of the street. The scariest part? The Gu worms in my body could attack at any time? When the time comes, no one will know if it will rot.
Do I want to live? I tell myself in my heart? Do everything you can to survive. Just live? I'll meet my grandfather again.
"Wow!" There was a dog barking.
I saw grandpa's black dog? It escaped? Then they found me. Its fur is a little wilted? There is no life left. I stepped forward and hugged it? Say, "Now you're the only one with me?" You're my family. ”
I have nowhere to go? On a hill on the edge of the Yangtze River? Found a bomb shelter. The iron door at the entrance of the cave is rusty? The iron lock on the iron door did not require much force to open.
I live in it temporarily. Black dogs follow me? Occasionally bite something back? I survived.
This night? Am I resting at the entrance of the cave? By the moonlight? Temporarily soothes my pain. In the middle of the night? Gu worms flare up again. The pain quickly spread throughout my body.
Am I hunched like a shrimp? Getting shortness of breath? Like a pair of hands around the neck? Little by little, life is disappearing.
Black dogs all around me? Steaming? Kept screaming. The entire bomb shelter is completely in noise? A lot of mountain rats ran out of the depths of the cave.
Although this mountain is in the middle of the city? But it's already the middle of the night? People outside can't hear at all. Running mouses, won't save me.
Residual consciousness tells me? I'm going to die here soon.
"Click!" I hear the sound of bones? The sound is clear? Someone like it's coming? The barking of the black dog is even more restless? Then he pounced.
I can't see clearly? But it feels like the black dog has flown out entirely? Crashed into a wall? Act recklessly.
Ha! A slight exhalation landed on my face. A black, withered head looked at me.
Am I panicked and amazed? Even forgot about the pain.
Soaked with sweat? Hands on the ground? Reluctantly retreating? Leaning against a stone wall? All of a sudden? Amazed.
What catches my eye? Is it a black skeleton? His arms also take on a black texture.
Dressed in loose black? But can't hide his form? This man is horribly thin? Barely a bit of meat? Like a layer of black skin on your bones? The flesh under the skin is long gone.
I can't believe it? How the hell did he survive? Or simply a dead man.
The skeleton man twisted his head and looked at me? He looked at me silently.
After a while? The skeleton man said, "Kid? You're going to die! You're screaming and waking me up? You seem to be tormented by a powerful Gu worm. ”
The sound was harsh. I can't deny it? Because what he says is the truth.
The skeleton said, "If you kowtow to me three times?" I can save you. Guaranteed you won't die. If you agree? Just blink. ”
I thought to myself, "Although I don't know what kind of monster he is." If he could save me? What is kowtow? Besides, he's older than me? Kowtowing to the elders is not a loss. ”
I blinked.
Skeleton Man is happy? Lift me up.
Did I really kowtow to him three times? And leaning against the wall? Gasp out. The whole action took all my energy? I can't move anymore.
The skeleton man said, "Kid? Since you kowtowed to me? Then I'll revive you. "The skeleton man pinched my mouth open? A wooden stick was placed.
And then reached out and slapped me on the back a few times? He said, "Poor child? Don't hurt his life. Since you chose to join him? It is necessary to protect this body. If he dies? You can't live either. ”
Didn't you say that to me? This object is clearly a bug inside me.
After being slapped by the skeletons? A mouthful of black blood spat out of the corner of my mouth? The discomfort in my heart gradually disappeared.
"Who the hell are you? Why would it be...; …; So skinny...; …; "After you come to your senses? I asked cautiously.
The skeleton man said, "It doesn't matter who I am. I have great unreported hatred? I have great hatred unrepented...; …; ”
The skeleton man said this repeatedly.
I said, "Then you must have had a hard time." ”
Is he already like this? Still thinking about revenge? It must have been very hard. Will he be alive? Must have relied on an extremely strong will? Otherwise, he would have died a long time ago.
"Then why are you hiding in this bomb shelter!" I asked curiously.
The skeleton man said, "I can't help it? Only come here. But you little doll? Poisoned insects? Running here? Must have suffered a great ordeal. If not? I'm not going to save you. Ha ha...; …; Are there so many wicked people in the world? Am I going to live? There is hope that he will be cleaned up. ”
The night was getting deeper.
Me and the skeleton man leaning in the cave**? The bustling city in the distance comes into view.
It's almost dawn? Footsteps were heard at the foot of the mountain.
Skeleton man startled? Say, "If they want to ask me?" Don't say you've seen me. ”
After the skeleton man stood up? Rushed into the bomb shelter as fast as possible? Footsteps? Soon there was no trace of it. The beans are dead.
But for a while? Two people appeared at the entrance of the cave? About the same age as my mother.
Does the man look quite chic? Women are also heroic. The two walked in together.
"Kids? Are you here alone?" The man asked. He probably thought I was a vagabond? I lived in a bomb shelter.
I'm pretending to be sleepy? Some impatiently said, "Yes? I'm alone. ”
The man asked, "Besides you?" Is there anyone else?"
I said, "There's only one person." ”
A woman's eyes flashed? smiled: "Are you really alone?"
Am I impatient? Say, "That's right? I'm alone. There is no one else here. ”
The woman said, "Brother Guan? This is it. The skeleton man must have been here. ”
Women are smart? Exposed my lies at once.
I quibbled, "No?" I'm the only one here. ”
Men are scary? Say, "Kid? Tell me? What is your relationship with the skeletons? What not to say? I'm not going to be kind to you. ”
And the woman on the side suddenly shouted: "Brother Guan, isn't this your gourd?"
The woman came up to fetch my gourd? I pounced? Say, "This is what my grandfather left me?" Don't break my stuff. ”
The two looked at each other? The woman even detained me? Said sharply: "Who is your grandfather?" Where did your gourd come from? What you don't say? We're really not kind to you. will let centipedes bite you...; …; ”
