Chapter 783: Bombing the Broken Bridge
Because of the dream entrusted by the old boatman, the black bandit said that he was about to die soon, and for a while, in the face of this empty moon wheel, he still didn't know what to do.
At this moment, when he saw the thin man and the woman appear in front of his house again, he wanted to talk to him, but he thought that he would die soon, and his words were good, and he felt that he should do more good deeds, so he gradually threw that unbearable thought into the country of Jawwa.
The bandit felt that he should do something good and explain it to him, otherwise, once the old boatman's prophecy was fulfilled, he would die, and I am afraid that it would be inappropriate, except for making people laugh in vain, other meanings may be gone.
Not far from the deserted village, there is a dangerous bridge, which has been in disrepair for many years, and it is already dilapidated. At this time, the bandits stood by this dangerous bridge, wanting to repair it well, to somewhat offset the sins they had done over the years, to make up for the losses of the people, and by the way, to be able to escape this catastrophe without having to die.
This dangerous bridge has been abandoned for many years, and in recent times, there are few pedestrians, and absolutely no one dares to walk on it, preferring to take a long detour rather than set foot in half a step, otherwise, it will definitely be a tragic end to the destruction of the bridge.
The bandits wanted to repair the bridge, and the people of the deserted village admired his spirit so much, but it was not wise, even if some skilled craftsmen, with their ability to reach the sky, wanted to repair the broken bridge, but they also felt that it was in vain.
And the black bandits actually let out their words, wanting to rely on their own clumsy skills to repair this bridge that everyone has abandoned like a piece of ruin, except for some ignorant and ignorant people, no one must believe it.
However, the bandits really wanted to repair the broken bridge, of course, because of the old boatman's dream, and more according to some of the statements of the deserted village for many years, doing the most heinous things, often can only be like this, otherwise, if you want to calm down and not be condemned by your conscience, I am afraid that it will not work.
But this bridge is really weird, there is a statue placed on it, the Bodhisattva blesses, it is definitely to suppress the ghosts, because in recent days, there are some incredible things on the bridge, often you can see people walking on this bridge during the day, but when you look closer, you see some irrelevant stones, wood and other things, and you don't really see the existence of people.
Otherwise, why would the people of the deserted village place a statue of the Bodhisattva on this bridge, but only to use their divine power to suppress these unclean things, so that they will not come from the other side of the bridge to harm people.
This bridge seems to have become a way for gods and ghosts to walk for a while, and ordinary people will never dare to approach, otherwise, once the bridge collapses, the consequences will be unbearable, and they may die directly.
At night, the cattle passing by the bridge are often in herds together, and do not dare to walk alone at night, as for why this is so, no one knows, and only the cows themselves know.
There was a time before when the people in the deserted village, except for the bandits, heard a god say that the bridge was his way, and no one was allowed to approach it, let alone move it easily, even if it was not enough to move a stone on the bridge.
For the words of God, the people of the deserted village will never dare to slack off, always pay attention, not to mention to carry a stone on the bridge, even if you look at the bridge, it is terrified, and at night, you have to have some extremely terrible nightmares!
But the bandit stood by the bridge, of course, thanks to the old boatman, who said that he had to repair the bridge, and even move the statue to a new one, if necessary, to break it and recast a new Bodhisattva.
This kind of solemn thing is generally only done by some people who are highly virtuous, but how can this black bandit do such a thing that does not know the height of the sky, once it is spread, it is small to be ridiculed, and he may lose his life because of it.
The black bandit didn't want to do this kind of thing, he felt that he was not qualified to say anything, and he forcibly did it, for fear that it would be improper, and he didn't dare to make a mistake for a while, but he couldn't go against the old boatman's words.
At night, when the sky is getting dark, the bandits dare not stay by the broken bridge, first, it is not good to disturb some men and women dating, and secondly, at this time, the gods of all walks of life pray to haunt, in case they are offended, they may not be able to afford to be guilty.
When he was about to leave, he suddenly saw some people talking on the broken bridge, the voice was not too loud, but it was enough to hear, and he thought it was some passers-by, and when he got closer, he saw nothing, only a few pieces of rubble were piled up together, very scattered, and there seemed to be a wisp of smoke floating out, red or white, so weird.
The bandit wanted to go over and talk to him or something, but he couldn't, because he heard someone on the broken bridge say something, and he was not allowed to set foot in it, let alone casually destroy some of the facilities for sacrificing gods on the broken bridge, otherwise, he might be killed.
I feel that I may have heard it wrong, there is no one on the broken bridge, why don't I hear someone talking, I don't want to leave at this time, I have to figure things out anyway, otherwise, even if I return home, I will not be at peace.
In the past, there were many stonemasons who wanted to repair this broken bridge, but the end was very miserable, and some people quietly escaped from the deserted village at night after repairing the bridge, escaped from this wild place, went to a distant place, and never returned. And some people, for some reason, got an incurable disease, and since then, they have lived half-dead.
The most terrible thing is that someone built this broken bridge, and when no one was there at night, he wanted to do that kind of murder and arson, and after killing someone, he hung the rope on the broken bridge, and then hanged himself.
Because of this, the bridge is really unbearable to repair, even if it is about to collapse, it is about to die, and people can only turn a blind eye, and they dare not touch any stone on the broken bridge, even if the stone is only a small piece, very insignificant, then they dare not touch it.
But that night, when the bandit was sleeping, he dreamed of the old boatman, and severely condemned him for his dishonesty, why did he delay repairing the broken bridge, and when the time came, if it was not repaired in good condition, I am afraid that there would be an immortal disaster waiting for him.
When the black bandit woke up from his dream, he looked outside, and the pale moonlight was like a flower, reflecting on the person's body, so desolate that it made people want to cry.
In such a night, the bandits often did not dare to stand outside, because the wind blew in an instant, and the place they passed was broken, although there were stones flying and hitting their heads, and the bandits still did not care, and still felt that they might blow the broken bridge, and then they would have enough reasons to repair it, and they would not be interfered with by the gods.
On such a night, it was really very terrifying, the wind swept everything, many dilapidated houses collapsed immediately, and even some impregnable cities, in this strong wind, also became fragile, and in an instant, as if evaporated from the world, the whole thing was gone.
Some big trees the size of thick buckets were uprooted, and even the small river, in the midst of such a strong wind, was so frightened that it whined, and could not bear to rage, and prayed for mercy from heaven to let itself go.
But it's also a strange thing, in such a strange weather, the broken bridge is still intact, not to mention collapsed, even a small stone on the bridge is not missing, but has increased a lot, these increased stones, and the original stone, in this sky of yellow sand, gradually merged into one, for a while to make the broken bridge more solid, no matter what.
Seeing this scene, the bandits did not dare to have any luck anymore, pinning their hopes on this violent wind, it was impossible, they could only rely on themselves, and use their own methods to repair the broken bridge, otherwise, if the old boatman's prophecy came true, he would die, it would be bad.
A few days later, an auspicious day of the zodiac was chosen, and the bandits were ready to start construction, and on the day of the construction, all the people in the deserted village were invited to come and watch, cheer for themselves, or set off some firecrackers for themselves.
But for some reason, some elderly people have persuaded them, saying that this broken bridge should not be repaired casually, otherwise it will definitely cause some unnecessary trouble, and it will be not good to set themselves on fire at that time, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Originally, when they heard such words, the bandits didn't dare to do anything, but when they remembered the words of the old boatman, they had the same dream every night and night, and if they didn't repair the broken bridge at this time, they were afraid that it would not work.
Regardless of the opposition of everyone, the black bandits braved the condemnation of the world and blew up the broken bridge, because they felt very unlucky, and if they didn't blow it up, how could they rebuild a new bridge?
On the day the bridge was bombed, many people from the deserted village gathered in front of his house and condemned him for his immorality, and some asserted that he might die within three days.
Because when the black bandits blew up the broken bridge, they also blew up some bodhisattvas on the bridge, and they ignored the words of the gods, didn't they commit a heinous crime, and they would definitely die in the future!
After blowing up the broken bridge, for some reason, the river bled for three days and three nights, and in the dead of night, when everything was silent, you could smell a faint cry coming from the broken bridge, of course, this is only heard by those who are about to die, and the average healthy person, it is not heard anyway.
Despite this, the black bandits do not regret it, if it is blown up, it will be blown up, and they are afraid of any retaliation, so they are ready to repair the broken bridge at this time, once it is repaired, this immortal work is their own.
But that night, just as the bandits were preparing to repair the broken bridge, for some reason, there was a bleak moon ring in the sky, and the moonlight was very unsightly, sprinkled on people's bodies, and it still made people feel a little cold, and they didn't even dare to look at the moon ring, otherwise, they would itch all over their bodies, and it would be very uncomfortable.
