Chapter 26: The fragility of life
This name is too profound for me, not only me, but also the mark and the dead Xiaoling, who are also very familiar. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info That's a nightmare for the three of us since childhood! How can this "she" in front of her be Li Erya? I was frightened and scared, did I see a ghost again this time?
I remember when I was nine years old, I heard that after Erya drowned in the Black Water Pool, Biaozi and Xiaoling, with a curious heart, led from the back mountain to the side of the Black Water Pool, and peeked at the body of Er Ya who had just been salvaged ashore in the grass.
Erya's corpse was only a skeleton, except for the head and limbs, but they were all very swollen, hanging like lotus roots on her bone shelf. The three of us who watched it shouted "wow", and then ran straight home without even daring to turn back, and were still immersed in the terrifying atmosphere for several days.
Since then, the three of us have never dared to set foot in the Black Water Pool, and because of this incident, the three of us have had a common nightmare since childhood.
In the dream, Erya's corpse was very pale, and she did not miss anything, she turned her back to us, and asked us to save her, and the voice sounded very ethereal, as if she was in front of her, and as if she was from a distant place. After saying this, she will suddenly turn her head to stare at you, and I will see, ah! Why is her eyeball missing? There are only two black holes left in the eye sockets!
Those two empty eye sockets seemed to be connected to the hell under the nine shadows, and inside was a darkness and emptiness, and it was impossible to see the bottom at a glance. Er Ya through the empty eye socket, but can see my existence, as long as she is stared at by her empty eye socket, I feel a numb brain, as if the three souls and seven spirits are going to be sucked into that eye socket, and every time I come here, I will wake up from the dream, at that time, it is already a cold sweat all over the body.
Later, when I asked, I found out that Biaozi and Xiaoling also often had this strange dream.
It wasn't until after graduating from high school, as we grew older, that we slowly forgot about it, and I didn't want Xiaoling to die in the black water pool now, the nightmare in my heart was finally stimulated again, and I resolutely went into the water to explore, on the one hand, I wanted to completely solve this nightmare and not let it continue to haunt me.
But after going down to this cave, not only did I not break free from the shadows, but I fell deeper and deeper, and now the girl in front of me, she said she was "Erya", how could I not feel fear? She's been my nightmare since I was a child! Could it be that all this is predestined by God, and I can't get rid of that nightmare.
I looked at the girl in front of me in horror, I couldn't say a word, I didn't expect to die, she turned out to be a ghost, which was too unacceptable. Thinking of all the actions she did to me just now, I even want to die, oh my God! I was naked with a ghost, and I was going crazy.
"Erya" seemed to see a stunned look on my face, she hurriedly walked over, and was about to reach out and touch my forehead, I was frightened enough, and suddenly a voice came out of my mouth: "You go away, don't come over!" β
She looked at me inexplicably, not knowing what I meant, but after thinking about it, she actually started crying. If I wanted to change it three minutes ago, I would definitely comfort her and let her stop crying, but now my heart is very weak, no matter how loud her cry is, it can't infect me, I said loudly: "** is a ghost or a human, how can you be Erya?" β
She heard me yelling at her like this, and she cried even louder, basically the kind of screaming, which startled me with a burst of hair. I remember hearing Grandpa Biaozi say that after a ghost roars, it will show her true colors, because her resentment is stimulated, so I don't dare to speak again, I really don't want to see her appearance before she died, how terrible it is.
She suddenly turned her head, her eyes were fixed on me, she was already in tears, I saw in her eyes that it was still the same sadness as before, and it didn't suddenly disappear, but I was still afraid, only gasping for breath. She started screaming at me, as if she was scolding me, but I couldn't understand what she was saying.
Seeing that I was indifferent, she raised her right hand at once, and without even thinking about it, she bit on it in one bite, and immediately, I saw the red blood flowing down her pale arm, and at this moment, I seemed to understand something, and said loudly: "Don't!" β
Unfortunately, it was still a step too late, and as soon as she shook her head, I saw a piece of flesh on her arm being torn off, and I felt a pain in my heart when I saw it. I just wanted to persuade her not to do anything stupid, when I heard a gunshot, and then "Erya" trembled, and the blood in her mouth bubbled out, and her mouth moved as if she wanted to say something.
Then the gunfire rang out again, and I shuddered, and there were a few more bullet holes in her body, and streams of blood "gurgled" out like water columns, and then began to fall backwards, but in her last moments, she could not forget to smile at me.
After "Erya" fell, I saw Lao Cai, who was holding a submachine gun, appeared in front of me, white smoke was emitting from the muzzle of his gun, obviously he fired the shots just now, and then the mark also walked in from outside the door with the help of Professor Zhang.
My heart was cold, and many pictures appeared in my head, and I suddenly thought of the scene where "Erya" hugged me, and the tenderness when she fed me fish. Suddenly, the anger in my heart suddenly soared, and I don't know where the power came from, my mind moved, and I actually sat up from the stone platform, I staggered to Lao Cai, didn't say anything, and directly hit him in the chin with an uppercut.
Before Lao Cai could react, he said, "Ah! With a bang, he fell to the ground heavily, he struggled to stand up, touched the painful left side of his face and shouted angrily to me: "What kind of nerve is the **? Believe it or not, I'll shoot you in the skull! β
Biaozi saw that Lao Cai was really moving, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade me: "I said Lao Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time, why don't you even know Lao Cai anymore, do you recognize him as a water monkey?" β
I choked up and said, "I hit him!" He killedβ" I paused, accentuated my tone, and said, "He killed Erya!" After saying that, I squatted on the ground like a child, and my heart was full of grievances, and I almost didn't shed tears.
Biaozi was stunned for a moment, his face was very ugly, he thought he had heard it wrong, squatted down and held my shoulder and asked again, "What did you just say?" β
I feel very aggrieved in my heart, a person who was still alive just now, only a moment later, it will disappear forever, I feel that life is so fragile, I feel a headache when I think about it, I really want to find a crack in the ground to get into. At this moment, I have lost my mind, and when the mark asks me, I yell: "I said that he killed Erya, it was Erya!" Do you understand? β
Biaozi was so shocked by my words that he almost collapsed to the ground, and hurriedly explained to the innocent Lao Cai: "Lao Cai, my buddy may have been stimulated, you have a lot, don't take what happened just now to heart." β
Professor Zhang seemed to see something, and he asked the target, "Who is Erya?" β
Without waiting for the standard to answer, Lao Cai said angrily: "It's a little girl who died in Heishuitan eighteen years ago, what do you say about Xiao Yang, you actually said that Erya was killed by me, I think he was scared and nervous." β
Professor Zhang suddenly thought of something, and only said, "Oops! Then he quickly ran over to see the corpse of "Erya", and then sat down on the ground in fright, turned around and said to Lao Cai in surprise: "Captain Cai, you ...... You're really murderous! β
Lao Cai looked dazed, thinking that Professor Zhang was also wrong, so he said: "Lao Zhang, are you also scared stupid, I killed a water monkey!" β
Biaozi stared at Professor Zhang and nodded affirmatively: "That's right, what Lao Cai killed just now was the water monkey!" How can it be human? After saying that, he felt that something was wrong, so he also went to see the corpse of "Erya".
As soon as I finished reading it, I said, "Mom! Jumping away, his lips trembled and he said to Lao Cai: "Lao Cai, you ...... It's really murderous, it's still a woman! β
Lao Cai's face turned white all of a sudden, and he only said one sentence: "His mother is all neurotic, is neuropathy still contagious?" After saying that, I also went to see the corpse of "Erya".
With just one glance, Lao Cai also retreated in shock, his face was full of disbelief, and he said tremblingly: "This is impossible? I saw a water monkey just now, and it was still roaring, how did it become a woman in the blink of an eye? It's fucking impossible, I bet we're collectively hallucinating. β
Lao Cai laughed madly after speaking, presumably he will not be hit less than me.
Professor Zhang quickly calmed down, he looked at the corpse of "Erya", and then at me, as if he sensed something, and then asked, "Comrade Xiao Yang, what is going on?" β
My mind was blank, I didn't know how to answer, and at the same time, I was sorry for punching Lao Cai just now, after all, he killed "Erya" by mistake without knowing it. Think about it, in such a cave, who would believe in the existence of people, not to mention that "Erya" was wearing a monkey skin at that time, and it was reasonable for Lao Cai to mistake her for a water monkey.
After a long time, I let out a heavy sigh before I said, "I don't know, all this is really confusing." I didn't hide it at all, and told Professor Zhang what happened after I was dragged away by "Erya", and after everyone listened to it, they were also full of surprise, especially the mark.
Biaozi sat down next to me, his face was full of solemnity, probably thinking of the nightmare when he was a child, and then shook his head and said: "It doesn't make sense, if this girl is really Erya, then who is the one we saw when we were children?" β
I said that I was also scared enough by this incident, but the girl in front of me was flesh and blood, it couldn't be a ghost or something, and she herself admitted that her name was "Li Erya", and she didn't need to lie to me about the situation at that time! Is there anything else in this that we didn't expect? In short, it is impossible to have two "Li Erya".
Lao Cai kept looking at the corpse of "Erya", not knowing what he was thinking, and when we discussed these issues, he didn't say a word, only sighed occasionally. I couldn't see any expression on his face, but the more it was, the more I felt that something was wrong with him, and I was afraid that he would do something irrational.
Professor Zhang patted him on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "It happened suddenly, you can't be blamed for this matter, if it were me, I would have fired those shots, so don't take this matter to heart." β
