Chapter 8: The Eight Undead of Stone Bridge
While I was being pulled by my father, I shouted, "Why don't you believe me, it's not Sun Chi who died"
"I'll let you talk nonsense! Let you talk nonsense! "He spanked my ass hard.
"Don't hit me, you wait for Uncle Ge to rescue Sun Chi, see what else you say!"
"Let you talk nonsense! Let you talk nonsense! ”
I followed my dad with a bag of frogs and went straight home.
My mother has slept, but I don't feel sleepy at all, I've been waiting for the news of Ge Changchang, but in the second half of the night, there is no movement, I listened to the crackling rain outside, and I was very worried, this kind of worry was never in the past, first, it was Sun Chi's life and death, and second, with the child's imagination, I always felt that something big was going to happen in the Eternal Forest Farm.
In a blink of an eye, it was dawn, and Widow Feng in the west hurried before the rooster crowed, shouting several times, as if to vent her youth that had nowhere to be placed. The roosters in the Eternal Forest Farm are particularly lazy, and with Widow Feng working for them, these roosters have almost lost the ability to crow, and every time they crow is like whispering, they can't do anything.
The rain outside has not stopped, and it has been raining for more than a week, and the water in the river is getting more and more fierce. I finished breakfast and stayed in the house in a daze. Thinking about last night, thinking about my grandson, and thinking about the two corpses in the water, I wondered if I had made the red cat stupid and see a vision last night.
Knock knock knock knock on the door
Squeak-quack-my mom opened.
"Hey, Brother Ge is here," my mother greeted.
"Well, your man isn't here?"
"Oh, he went out early in the morning" My dad is not at home, except at the table, on the way to the table.
I saw Gro Pot and a big tall man wearing a raincoat and waterproof boots with a strange look into my house, that tall man should be the person who was with Gro Pot and Lao Henan last night, Gro Pot saw me at a glance, that look was very scary, just like the look I saw in Dali with the cemetery, it was creepy.
He turned to whisper a few words to my mother, as if he was deliberately carrying me behind my back, and I was surprised to see the reaction on my mother's face, and covered her mouth in a panic while turning her head to look at me.
Gro said a few more words to his mother and left.
My mom seemed to be trying to digest the words of the Garrow pot, staring at the ground and froze there.
"Mom, what did he say?"
My mom came back to her senses and looked at me, as if she was thinking about something, and didn't know what to say
"Did they rescue Sun Chi?"
She came over and sat down next to me and touched my forehead with her hand as if to take my temperature.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
"Son, you tell your mother, what you said to your Uncle Ge last night, is it made up?"
"I didn't make it up, I really saw Sun Chi, and I also saw the same colorful rope on his hand, how could I be wrong!"
"Then Sun Chi has already died, why are you talking nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense, when did I lie to you!"
"Son, are you sick?"
"Mom, why don't you believe me, why don't you believe me?"
"People, your Uncle Ge and the policemen from above went to see it last night, and there was nothing in that pit! People say that you are a child talking nonsense, or you are sick, and in two days, they will take you to the town to see a doctor."
Hearing this, my original self-confidence suddenly disappeared, I recalled that night, although I saw my grandson vividly, but I was indeed scared enough by the red cat before, the forest was already dark, whether there were any hallucinations uncertain. Besides, one person says you're sick, but you don't believe it, two people say you're sick, and you refute it, three people, four people, everyone says you're sick, and you can't help but wonder if you're really sick.
People interact with this society, and a large part of people's evaluation of themselves is feedback from society, and when social feedback is overwhelmingly opposite to your self-perception, self-doubt arises.
"I, I was frightened by a wild cat that night, but that Sun Chi-"
"Son, I know that you are good with the Sun family, you always play together, but this person can't be resurrected from death, don't think about it every day, we don't have a lot of little eggs (little boys), you find someone else to play, don't worry about someone who is not there" My mother comforted my feelings, and even I felt that I was a little nervous.
I really want to go to that pit and see if my grandson is still there.
"Mom will give you something to eat at noon!" My mom pointed to the frog bag that was sitting aside, and the little things were still struggling in it from time to time, and the bag was bumped into a bulge. I seemed to be happy in an instant, and my saliva was about to flow out.
Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock
There was a quick knock on the door again
"Is Lao Wang here?"
I haven't introduced my surname until now, my surname is Wang, the reason why I don't want to say my surname is because the people in the field always love to call my dad Lao Wang, and there was no proper noun "Lao Wang next door" in that era, and everyone called it Shun Shun. But now, how can I describe in the novel the situation when my neighbor came to my father's door?
Without further ado, my mother opened the door and saw that it was Ge Lao Wu, who was in a hurry to find my father in the heavy rain "Lao Wang next door" and didn't know what was going on.
"He's out playing, what's the matter?"
"Why can't you see people every day, there is a big incident in the field, and people are urgently needed, you hurry up and find him and let him go to the bridge to help! Not a minute to lose! ”
After that, Ge Lao Wu turned around and left, not even giving my mother a chance to say a few polite words.
"Well, I'll let him pass!"
My mom is a kind and honest person, and she does everything she says.
"Son, you hurry up to your third uncle's house to see if your father is there, and let him hurry to the bridge."
My dad went out to gamble and basically organized a game at the third uncle's house, and his life was very regular.
"Oh!" I took the umbrella and ran to the third uncle's house.
To get to the third uncle's house, you have to pass by the bridge, which is the only bridge in the Eternal Forest Farm, the construction time is unknown, but it is very strong.
Every day, a large timber truck passes by dozens of times, the big cart is called "Big Red Head" by the locals, the front of the car is tall and wide, brown-red, the body is full of 20 meters long, full of horsepower, it is definitely a giant carrying logs, it is said to be imported from the Soviet Union, there are only thirty or fifty vehicles in the country, and the production point of the Eternal Forest Farm accounts for three.
This tonnage of vehicles walks on the ordinary bridge for several months, according to the current quality of the project, the bridge is basically about to enter the funeral period, but the bridge of the Eternal Forest Farm has been standing still for more than ten years.
Before I reached the bridge, I saw a large group of people gathered on the side of the bridge, and I could see from a distance that everyone was nervous, like ants on a hot pot, at a loss. A few people in front of them were holding nets, and they seemed to be dragging something from under the bridge to the shore, and the thing seemed to be very heavy, and it was particularly difficult for three or five men to pull it up.
I'll walk in and take a look!
Eight corpses appeared naked in front of me, and at a glance, I knew that they were all children. Three of them had been fished to the shore, and five were still floating on the surface, and although the current was strong, the five floating bodies were firmly stuck between the two boulders.
Before I could come back to my senses, there was another commotion from the crowd, and I looked in the direction everyone was pointing to, damn it, three more corpses floated upstream, and they were gradually approaching along the turbulent river!
Suddenly, there was a "boom-" sound, like a loud sound like opening a mountain and exploding stones, and the earth-shattering secret wrapped in the primordial red pine forest was slowly revealed in front of the world.
