Chapter Eighty-Five: The Story of His Life
After I tumbled into the river, the headless ghost did not chase after me, but turned around and continued to walk around the bridge. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
By the time I grabbed the shopkeeper to the intersection, the headless ghost didn't seem to notice us, still walking back and forth in the middle of the bridge.
However, the people who saw the headless ghost were terrified.
Far away before, Ning Hongyan only saw a figure choking my neck, and didn't see the appearance of the headless ghost clearly, I shouted, she didn't dare to go any further, and when I climbed up from the river, she chased back, and then waited for me to grab the collar of the shopkeeper, she turned back for the second time, and only then did she see the appearance of the headless ghost, and the heart that was originally noisy and worried about nervousness suddenly became cold, her hands and feet were cold, and she was stunned on the spot.
Guan Xiaoxiao has always been very eager to see ghosts, and when she was sitting on the stall before, she only saw a shadow, and when she saw the bare neck, she was also too frightened to move.
Especially the shopkeeper, he already had a ghost in his heart, and when he saw the headless ghost on the bridge with his own eyes, everyone was frightened and sat on the ground, staring at the headless ghost on the bridge in a daze.
The two guys who chased the shopkeeper and some people who stopped to watch the excitement on the road, as well as the people in the car blocked by a few of us, they couldn't see the headless ghosts, and they were here to watch the excitement.
A headless ghost is a murderer, but without a head, there will always be some defects in the 'ghost ability', and it is normal that he doesn't notice us.
However, when there are many people, they dare not guarantee it.
"You two, pull him up and put him back." I shouted at the two guys in the store.
The two of them didn't see the headless ghost, they only knew that the boss was frightened, and he was chasing me and pushing and beating just now, so he lost his temper at all, and honestly picked up their boss and went back.
"Hongyan, Guan Xiaoxiao......" I knew that both of them were frightened, and called them softly.
Guan Xiaoxiao suddenly reacted, turned her head and ran back.
Ning Hongyan breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't dare to look at the headless ghost anymore, so she just asked me in a low voice, "Are you okay?" ”
"I'm fine, let's go, let's go back." My back hurts a little and it's still cold, after all, it's almost winter.
When Ning Hongyan and I returned to the shed of the stall, Guan Xiaoxiao and the shopkeeper were all done inside.
"Are you alright?" I asked Guan Xiaoxiao again, afraid that she would be frightened.
"It's okay......" Although Guan Xiaoxiao was scared, she was not so flustered, and it was estimated that it would be better to slow down for a while.
"Hongyan, you go find some firewood, I have to bake the fire...... "I was covered in muddy water, shivering from the cold, and I could carry it for a while with my young fire, but I couldn't last long.
"No need to look for it, we have a stove here, I'll move it for you." A guy about my age said that it was probably a relative of the shop owner.
I nodded at the guy, and Ning Hongyan went with him.
I looked at Guan Xiaoxiao again and made sure that she was okay, so I walked up to the shopkeeper and called a few times: "Uncle, uncle, uncle......"
“…… Ah......" The shopkeeper's body twitched suddenly, came back to his senses, looked at us in a daze, knelt down for me, and begged hard: "Little brother, help, you must save me, their affairs have nothing to do with me, little brother, you believe me, you must save me......"
It seems that the shopkeeper was really frightened and panicked, thinking that the two ghosts had come to look for him.
"You get up first, get up, uncle, what are you doing...... there are a few good people watching next to me, a middle-aged man from my uncle's generation kowtows to me, I quickly pulled my uncle up: "It's okay, it's okay, they're not looking for you, you get up first and then talk." ”
"Oh oh......" When the shopkeeper heard this, he dared to stand up, but he still looked at me bitterly, afraid that this disaster would implicate him: "Little brother, you are a learner, right?" Oops, you didn't say it twice, and if you had said it earlier, I wouldn't have ...... In this way, you can see what I can do, I can pay for it, you must help me! ”
"Hmm......" He didn't say that I had forgotten, and asked him twice that he didn't have a breath, and if he knew that there was another one in the water, I wouldn't be scared half to death, and he should be in a hurry.
It just so happened that the young man and Ning Hongyan moved the stove over, and I moved a bench and made a fire around the stove.
"Little brother, no, sir, what do you think should be done about this, I will pay as much as I want!" The shopkeeper thought that I was deliberately taking advantage of him to ask for more money, so he hurriedly packed the ticket and said the money.
"Money is not money, let's not talk about it first, there are some things, you have to explain it to me, otherwise......" I was afraid that he would react, and hid it for me.
"It must be, it's ......" The shopkeeper looked at a few people here and was embarrassed.
I guess that the owner of the store knows that he will get into a lawsuit, or provoke revenge, so he has been holding back and not daring to say it, in fact, many people are like this, no matter what happens to him, just don't get into trouble, understandable.
I couldn't leave the stove while the fire was baking, so I said to Ning Hongyan and Guan Xiaoxiao: "You two go out for a while, don't be afraid." ”
The shopkeeper understood what I meant, and let the two men who were with him out.
In the shed, there were only two of us left, and the shopkeeper sat down beside me and whispered to me the story of the two ghosts:
The one who died in the water was called Xiao Wu, who was from the city, and his home was in the old street in the west of the city.
Xiao Wu is an only child, he has been pampered by his parents since he was a child, and as Xiao Wu grows up, his parents' meager income can no longer provide for him, so Xiao Wu learned to steal, and later mixed with some indiscriminate people, and did nothing good.
Xiao Wu not only steals, but also gambles, how can there be a lot of money on the gambling table, over time, Xiao Wu owes a lot of debts, and also borrows usury and loans.
That night, Xiao Wu was chased to the bridge by a debt collector, and jumped off in a hurry, but he didn't expect to choke to death with a mouthful of water.
And the person who took the lead in chasing him was the one with no head on the bridge, called Dongzi.
Dongzi is a person from the village near the county seat, the people here are fierce, there are many fights and brawls from the village to the county seat, Dongzi is a brave and ruthless child, from the village to the county, he has become a professional bastard, leading a group of people, doing debt collection business, and he is very famous on the road.
More than two years after Xiao Wu's death, it seemed to be the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, and it was very late, and Dongzi was eating alone at the boss's stall.
Suddenly, a group of people came and got Dongzi onto the bridge.
At that time, the boss's stall was not on this side of the road, but just south of the bridge, so the boss saw what was happening on the bridge.
The group pressed Dongzi, saying that Dongzi was too domineering and not authentic, and asked Dongzi to give them softness, and also mentioned who would borrow money, but Dongzi refused, so they pressed Dongzi's head under the wheel, and asked Dongzi again, Dongzi still didn't let go, so they drove over Dongzi's head......
I listened to the story of the two of them and fell silent.
After waiting for a while, I didn't see me speak, the shopkeeper was anxious first, his face was red and his neck was thick, and he almost didn't shed tears: "Little brother, I really know this, I don't know anything else, you must save me, I didn't hurt them, I really didn't hurt them......"
"Well, it's none of your business, you can sit down first." I felt very uncomfortable, an indescribable kind of discomfort, not painful, but equally heartbreaking.
How cruel it is to put a man's head under the wheel and run over it! How outrageous! What a tragedy!
There are also Xiao Wu's parents, if they teach Xiao Wu the principles of being a man from the beginning, teach him to follow the right path, teach him to work hard and be kind to others.
I can't accept this kind of tragedy for the rest of my life.
"Boss, do you have any cigarettes?" I want to smoke a cigarette and calm down.
......The shopkeeper quickly took out a cigarette, lit one for me, and continued to wait.
I smoked a cigarette, my heart finally calmed down a little, from the emotion to the things in front of me, although after becoming a ghost, I can no longer judge according to the things in life, but I think, Dongzi is looking for his head, and his head is in Xiao Wu's hands, if I can take that head from Xiao Wu's hands and return it to Dongzi, Dongzi may be able to relieve the resentment in his heart and go to where he should go.
"Alright, come in." I saw that there were more and more people outside, some people were talking, and some people were looking for Ning Hongyan to inquire about them, and they quickly called them in.
Ning Hongyan, Guan Xiaoxiao and the two guys all came in, and a few people outside seemed to have talked about the haunting on the bridge.
"You three, hurry up and wash your eyes with water, you can't see them, they can't find you." I have to face two demons at once, and I don't have any confidence.
Guan Xiaoxiao and the shopkeeper hurriedly looked for water to wash their eyes, but Ning Hongyan hesitated: "Then what should you do?" ”
"I'm fine, don't worry." If Ning Hongyan can help, she will follow, but she can't help at all, and I still bother her to do something: "Don't worry, I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet, I won't mess around, if not, I'll withdraw!" ”
"......" Ning Hongyan washed her eyes at this time.
I stood up and moved my legs and feet, there was no problem, it didn't hurt to get muddy water on my body, anyway, I went down to the river to find the water ghost first, and I couldn't do it.
Buddha beads, mahogany swords, flashlights, and three-legged incense burners are all right, and I am relieved.
Knowing what was going on with them, I walked out, walked a few steps, and then turned back to the people in the shed and said, "You have all seen me, and you know what is going on with me, but I can tell you, if anyone dares to tell me about me, I will let the dirty things go to him, and if you don't believe me, try it!" ”
The second generation of the second generation of fans is passed on among a few girls in the school, even if it is passed on, I don't want to go out of the first middle school and become popular in the county.
“…… Know, know. The shopkeeper and the two guys hurriedly agreed.
I walked out of the shed with my head down, walked briskly to the river, plopped and jumped into the river. (To be continued.) )
