Chapter Twenty-Six: "Fraud" Warms and Colds
As mentioned above, the uncle and the group of civets exchanged their lives for my time to escape, and I didn't dare to waste a second, and I ran to the depths of the old forest without looking back. I don't know how many slopes I climbed, how many hurdles I crossed, and after about an hour, I slowly stopped. Suddenly, a white-haired wind rose and howled like a wild beast, causing my already frozen face to ache like a knife, and almost turning me into a snow sculpture. After a bout, the wind finally stopped, and the blizzard rustled down like goose feathers.
Anyone who has lived in the northeastern forest area knows that the snow falls with sound, and if the environment is quiet enough, you can hear the sound of snowflakes hitting the ground, and the "rustle" is very slight and wonderful. The population of the Eternal Forest Farm is not large, and it is located in the depths of the endless primeval forest of the Xiaoxing'an Mountains, so every winter, nature will use this special way to present one beautiful song after another to the people in the forest area.
After running all the way for so long, I was a little dizzy, I couldn't figure out where I was, and I was too exhausted to lift my spirits. I looked up at the deep old forest, not knowing where to go. Thinking that the night was already late, and the old ghosts must not be able to find me, I thought, let's make do with the night here, and it is not too late to make plans when the sun shows up tomorrow morning.
The snow was falling more and more rapidly, and after a while, the wind began again, and the wind showed signs of getting stronger. I looked around, and saw a large boulder protruding not far away, with the wind direction in my back, and there was a good shelter from the wind under the boulder, so I found some dead sticks, spread a few layers, and put them under me. It was surrounded by snow shells that could block the wind, and I pressed the soft snow into the porcelain, leaving few gaps, and in this way, a simple safe haven came out in three or five clicks.
I curled up and lay down. The wind was blowing in the old forest, and I ignored the snow foam that kept drifting on me, and my head was full of the encounters of the past two days, which were projected in front of my eyes like a movie.
First, my uncle told me about the life of the old ghost, and then I went home to see my father drinking human blood, and the third uncle still chattered that my grandfather did it; Later, he encountered the national beam that changed into a black cloud; Seeing the old ghost's real body, I heard him say something inexplicable, and the old ghost has been emphasizing that my uncle is using me, but what is there to make use of me? Reading between the lines, it seems that the uncle and the old ghost are old acquaintances, but what is the relationship between the two? The old ghost also asked about the cat in the cave, what is the story here? The more I thought about it, the more confused I felt, as if there was any connection between the uncle, the old ghost, the cat master, me, my father, and my father, but I couldn't tell the truth. It seems that there is only a layer of window paper, as long as someone clicks it, I can immediately understand the overall situation, but now I am still confused, simply do not think about these things, a wave of sleepiness hit, I fell asleep in this wind and snow.
I don't know how long it took, I felt more and more hot and unbearable, and in a half-asleep state, I stripped off all my cotton jacket and cotton pants, even if I only left a small pants, and felt a stinky sweat. I closed my eyes, I felt that the light outside was getting stronger and stronger, it must have been the third pole of the sun, I wondered in a daze, there was a snowstorm before going to bed, how could this be as difficult as a dog day, although I couldn't bear to leave Xiangmeng, but I was really hot and no longer sleepy, so I opened my eyes.
The image in front of me froze me.
Although I was still lying on the dead branches and sticks, I was still leaning against the boulder, but the surrounding area was no longer icy and snowy, and it seemed to be the height of summer.
The towering old trees have grown dense branches and leaves, wisps of hard sunlight shine into the forest, under the low bushes are lush weeds, from time to time you can see a few handfuls of bright wildflowers peeking out, and a few butterflies flying between the grass and trees, decorating the forest with life. I was stunned and didn't know what to do, as if I suddenly appeared in my uncle's cabin, and even though I tried to remember what had happened, I would never understand.
I thought that maybe after falling asleep in the winter, my body was frozen, and the spring melted and came alive. But this is like a beautiful scenery in midsummer, spring has long passed, and it is going to be early, how can you get such a day.
I was pondering, and suddenly I felt a jolt under my buttocks, and the roots of my thighs were cold, as if something had slipped over my body wearing only pants, and I turned my head to see that a black snake suddenly slipped behind my ass! This snake is called Mound in the Eternal Forest Farm, it is more than half a meter long, and its body is black and red, it is one of the most common snakes in the forest. I heard the old people say that in the past, when every family in the field lived in the woodcarved flute, board and mud, there were often mounds in the middle of the night to climb to the kang head, and when they woke up the next morning, people would find that they had slept in a bed with this cold-blooded guy all night. The old people in the field like to catch these mounds to make wine, and they are said to be effective for cold diseases such as rheumatism.
However, I am a baby who is naturally afraid of snakes, and when I see this, I jumped up, pulled up my pants and looked for it, for fear that there was a mound hidden in the crotch of my pants, which had climbed half a foot away, and when I was so flustered, he looked back at me, as if mocking, spit out his beard at me, and disappeared into the grass with a whizz.
I was so frightened that I almost peed my crotch, and looked at the broken "bed" where I was lying, without any thought, as if there were snakes under those dead branches, and I turned my head and ran for my life.
I wore my pants and ran around in the woods like a headless fly. With a bang, my forehead hit something directly, and I was dizzy, and a dog ate and fell to the ground. I slowed down, propped up my body with my hands, choked on black soil in my mouth, spit vigorously, and cursed non-stop, thinking that it must be the method of the Gluo pot, just like last night, and cast an invisible wall to make it impossible for me, a little ghost.
"Yes, is it pockmark?"
Suddenly, a weak voice called me. I looked up and saw an unkempt and scrawny man slowly rising from the ground and staggering in front of me, as if a gust of wind could blow it into the sky. Listening to this voice, looking at this appearance, it should be a little girl, just my age. Her clothes were ragged and her face was covered with black mud, as if she hadn't been cleaned for a long time, and I couldn't recognize whose child it was.
"Who are you?" I asked,
"I, I am—" With that, the girl covered her head and fell to the ground, and it was her head that I had just hit. Seeing her with such a physique, this may have knocked her down a lot. But I don't feel guilty at all, I think this girl must be the black cloud or the fox demon changed, the master has been deceived by such means, first the fake grandson of the fox demon, and then the fake Guoliang of the black cloud, and now there is a girl, and then there is no time and again, if the master falls for you again, the master is not a ghost! I stared at the girl and found a sharp ashlar on the ground, and held it tightly in my hand just in case.
"I'm a three-kilometer old Henan family, girl, Lijuan!" She split her sentence into four sentences and squeezed out breathlessly. Then she came to me, looking terrible, lying on the ground, her dirty hair hanging down in front of her, and her hands stuck in the dirt, gradually approaching.
"I, I'm starving to death, looking for it, I can't find a home!"
I thought to myself, the daughter of the old Henan family was fished out on the night of her grandson's disappearance, and the body was soaked, and she was still pretending to be garlic here! Besides, the living can't see me at all, this guy in front of me must be an illusion formed by the old ghost's dog legs, specially out to lure me, if I take the bait, I don't know what will happen, that old ghost is fierce and cruel, I finally escaped, how can I fall for you again.
Thinking of this, I didn't hesitate at all, I swung the stone and smashed it at the girl who crawled towards me, and a few strokes made her brain open, white brains and red blood mixed out, this scene was very terrifying, but I didn't have too much timidity, knowing that this was all an illusion, I was very relieved. When I saw that the girl didn't move, I patted my ass and turned her head to run, scolding incessantly, "You're still using this trick to deceive me, it's so fucking stupid!" ”
I still clutched the blood-stained ashlar in my hand, and suddenly it felt like it was pretty good, more effective than the scimitar. It didn't seem like I was having enough time to kill the girl just now, and I thought to myself how good it would be if I did it a few more times.
After walking for a long time, I found that this forest became more familiar and friendly, and I trusted my instinct that this place must not be far from the Eternal Forest Farm. Sure enough, the forest ahead was getting thinner and thinner, and the Eternal Forest Farm loomed into my sight. I quickened my pace, and finally jumped out of the forest, and in front of me was the great river, the mother river of the eternal forest farm. I jumped in, and the cool water of the river instantly made me feel like I was in heaven, and I had never experienced such a wonderful feeling.
I thought, now that the sun is in the sky, the old ghost doesn't dare to come out to make a mistake, even if the black clouds turn into some means, they also make me fall on my stomach in threes and twos, I seem to have no scruples, and indulge in the water to spread joy.
"Why did you come back, you can really ink!"
A very familiar voice came from not far away, and I stopped my hands and looked intently, isn't this a grandson!
I thought to myself, the illusion of this monster is becoming more and more realistic, to say that the grandson and Guoliang who have changed before, can more or less feel that something is wrong, but the grandson in front of me, I can't see the slightest difference, I even admire it a little, but I think that the fake is fake after all, and I will beat you back to the original shape with a stone.
I saw my grandson standing waist-deep in the river, looking at me and then turning his head and staring intently at the water. After a while, he jerked out a canned bottle, and a black loach was trapped in it, and the grandson quickly poured the loach into the net bag tied around his waist, which was already full of bulging, and already filled most of the bag of fish.
I'm a little overwhelmed, this scene, live and real. My memory instantly returned to the day my grandson disappeared, that is, at noon at the beginning of the story, my grandson and I happened to catch fish by the river, and that day was also the first time I saw the loach change its face.
When I came back to my senses, I felt like I was on the verge of collapse, and this time and again I couldn't bear the mental shock, and suddenly I felt nauseous, and my body fell into the water without being called. When my grandson saw this, he immediately ran towards me, and I saw in a daze that he seemed to have turned into a strange face, a terrifying and cautious person, that is, that hideous face. I understand, this must be the black cloud that has just become an old Henan girl in the forest, the grandson is already dead, no matter how realistic this scene is, the master will not believe it! Thinking of this, I clenched the ashlar in my hand hard.
The grandson shouted as he ran, "Mazi! Are you okay! ”
The moment he held me, I swung the stone and slammed it on his head, and before he could do a second blow, he fell into the water and stopped moving, and blood kept pouring out of his skull, and soon a large area of the river was red.
I scolded angrily,
"Fuck you! It's crooked! It's not over when it comes to deceiving the master! ”
I threw the stone into the river and gasped for air. Suddenly, I snapped back to my senses,
"That's not right!"
I shouted.
A few days ago, the grandson of the fox demon and the national beam that the black cloud turned into were injured, and after being injured, they either turned into a wisp of green smoke or turned back into a black cloud, and the illusion disappeared. But the old Henan girl and grandson I just killed were clearly motionless, and they had never seen any green smoke and black clouds, and the dead bodies were so miserable that their brains were shattered and blood gushed out, I was shocked, could it be that I killed the living!
But the grandson and the old Henan girl are clearly dead!
I can't tell what it looks like.
Thinking of this, I panicked and put my bloodstained hands into the river and washed them, at this time my grandson had already drifted down the river, I looked around and there was no one else, this atmosphere was exactly the same as the day my grandson disappeared, I chuckled in my heart, waded through the river and ran home.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw my mother cooking around the pot, she saw me wearing pants and ran back in a panic, and said,
"I'm going crazy again! Hurry up and wash your hands, Mom has made something to eat for you! ”
I'm completely dumbfounded, could it be that I killed my grandson?!
