Chapter XXII. Rescue the rescue
The terrible scream stopped abruptly as my eyes darkened. Strange to say, when my eyes were dark, I knew that I had fainted, not died. I don't know why I felt this way, but maybe it was because I suddenly felt hope when I saw the big hand that grabbed the female ghost, and then I felt at ease.
During the coma, I seemed to have had a few dreams, and the content of the dreams was almost the same as the night before, but I didn't remember anything about it, just a little impression in a daze. When I woke up, it was still dark, but I could tell from the light through the cracks in the windows and doors that it was already daylight.
When I woke up, I felt a little like I was in a different world. The smell of herbs in his nose was a bit of a rush to his nose. And my posture is a flat lying position, squinting my eyes and seeing Da Mao sitting next to me, one hand supporting his cheeks, dozing off, and the room where I am sleeping now is the one that Da Mao and I occupy.
I tried to sit up, but I found that my hands and feet were sore, and I couldn't exert my strength and fell down again. With my "oops", Da Mao also woke up, he saw that I was struggling to sit up, and hurriedly said to me, Brother Shankong, don't move, you have to recuperate for a day.
I asked in a daze, what's wrong? When I finished asking this question, I remembered the wound I had suffered yesterday, so I lay down and raised my two hands, and found that my hands had been wrapped in torn strips of clothing, and the knuckles and wrists that had been broken last night had a hot sensation, and the smell of herbs in my nose became stronger, so I knew that someone had dealt with my injuries.
So I tried to move my fingers and wrists gently, and found that I could move, but it would be very sore. At this time, Da Mao said, you fell off the roof last night, broke your fingers, wrists and a foot, but fortunately, it was not broken, but only dislocated, which has been connected, put on some medicine to reduce swelling, and rest for another day, you should be able to move slowly. I asked Da Mao and said, these are all made by you, I didn't see it, stinky boy, I didn't think you still had this function?
Da Mao smiled and said, how can it be me, brother, this is all treated by Jia Ma Dan, a Qiang man, grew up in the mountains since he was a child, this little injury is nothing at all. He was the one who saved the two of us last night, otherwise we might not have been able to stand it.
I took a closer look at Da Mao at this time, and found that there was a long wound on his face, as if it had been scratched by something sharp, but the wound was not too deep, so it was already starting to scab a little. On the left cheek of the face, there was also a large black bruise, as if it had been violently hit by some blunt object. So I asked Da Mao, what's wrong with your face, what happened last night, you tell me, I remember that I fell off the roof, and then it broke off. Also, my hand wasn't broken when I fell, but when I fought the female ghost on the roof, it just seemed to be my foot, but my memory is blurry now.
Da Mao said, last night when I reminded Da Mao that there was a ghost behind him, he turned around all of a sudden, and after his turn, it was basically the same distance as me and the female ghost behind me, but Da Mao is a Tianyan master, for the tricks of catching ghosts and fighting ghosts, although there are but there are not many, but the inheritance of Da Mao's faction is relatively mild, they rely on their eyes to eat, so there will be more eye-related tricks. He can let his opponent see some fantasies that don't exist in the first place, called "Lost Eye", when I was defeated, he came with my master to save me, and it was only by using Lost Eye tricks that he blended into the heavily guarded cell. And when we left, the two sentries at the door were still standing straight, and they didn't even see us walk in or out.
But Da Mao said that he had done this trick to some ghosts before, and he could still charm the eyes of ghosts, and he could use this way not to attack the other party, and let the other party go to the pre-set trap by himself, so as to achieve the purpose of catching ghosts. However, this trick didn't seem to have much effect on the female ghost in the green cheongsam. I've been fascinated in front of it many times, and according to common sense, there should be dozens of big hairs in its eyes, but it can accurately find out which one is the real me from its mung bean-sized eyes.
Da Mao pointed to the wound on his face and said to me, Brother Shankong, look, this is this guy slapping and hula, I have tried my best to dodge, but I still let its nails scratch. I raised my chin at him, and then asked, what is the matter with the colored strip on your cheeks, you sing, everyone wears blush, you wear black... Da Mao waved his hand and said, Hey, don't mention it, I'm timid, I didn't look at the road when I dodged that guy, I tripped under my feet, and my face hit the big rock on the ground. After saying that, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly and laughed, it really looked like a big macaque in Wushan.
I asked Da Mao what happened later. Da Mao said that he felt that he was quite useless, and he fell down after being caught by the female ghost, and then there was no other way to deal with it, thinking that it would probably be over, so he got up and ran desperately, planning to run through the house to the ghost market, where there were many masters, and there were so many people who would help, but before he ran to the edge of the house, he felt that something ran through from behind, and a cold passed through the body, and then he couldn't breathe.
I think he must have felt the same as I did at the time, and I was also stuck in my chest by the female ghost, and then I couldn't breathe. It's just that the difference is that I go from the front chest to the back, and the big hair is from the back to the front chest. Da Mao went on to say that at that time, he couldn't use his strength in his hands and feet, and his body was about to fall down on his knees as soon as he was weak, when he suddenly heard a buzzing sound in his ears, as if someone was turning the whip quickly, and then he saw an eye glowing with red and white light, running from far and near from his front, and when he looked closely, he found that it was Jia Ma Dan running over with his hand stretched out, and the other hand was holding something like a horse rope, which kept turning, Then he threw it at the female ghost behind him.
Da Mao said that at that time, he only heard a scream behind him, and Da Mao was able to gasp for breath at once, but his body was still very soft, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden, and at this time, Jia Ma Dan stepped over Da Mao's body that fell to the ground, and suddenly grabbed the hand with the tattooed eyes on the female ghost's head, and then the female ghost disappeared in a way that was sucked away by something.
Da Mao said that when he fell to the ground, he saw that the horse rope had tied up the female ghost's body, as if he had tied the other party, but what happened later was too fast, and he couldn't see it clearly. After Jia Ma Dan cleaned up the female ghost beside him, he asked Da Mao, "Can you still stand up?" Da Mao said yes, Brother Jiama hurry up and save people, my Brother Shankong is still on the roof over there. Then Da Mao pointed in my direction. So he ran towards me.
Then I realized that the dazzling white light I saw, and the big hand that stretched out inexplicably, were actually Jia Ma Dan who saved me. It's just that I wasn't as lucky as Da Mao, but I couldn't watch the scene where he saved me very closely. So I asked Da Mao, do you see how he saved me? Da Mao said that his hands and feet were sore on the ground at that time, and he ran away before he could get up, so he couldn't see everything behind him. I asked Da Mao again, what kind of thing did you say about that set of horse ropes, which can still bind ghosts?
Da Mao said that this is the first time he has seen such a thing, it seems that there is a heavy object tied to the two ends, and then there is a strong rope connected in the middle, which rotates and throws out, and can hit the enemy as soon as it comes, and because of the rotation, it can also immediately tie up the other party. Da Mao said, I used to watch the Water Margin, and many green forest heroes used this thing to tie the horse's legs when they robbed the dart team.
I was silent, for I knew that some things could be used by humans to cause harm to ghosts or ghosts from another world, but this was the first time I had heard of such a weapon, and I had never heard of it before. It seems that although I have experienced some major events and had an adventure, I know very little about this industry.
Da Mao continued, after saving you, I will carry you back with Jia Ma Dan, and after Jia Ma Dan grabbed the female ghost next to you, it was as if the female ghost was put into a copper ball, and it seemed that he had taken it. As soon as I heard Da Mao say this, I asked, how can I do it, so that he doesn't want to sell this female ghost? If that stupid girl sees it, she will tell the people around her, and in this way, our investigation will be interrupted!
Da Mao also frowned and said that he had also thought of this, but after all, people have the grace to save their lives, and they are really embarrassed to mention it, isn't this just waiting for you to wake up, let's discuss how to do it.
I thought about it, it's really hard to open this mouth, but sooner or later I have to say it. So I asked Da Mao, when you two got me back, did the other vendors see it? Da Mao said, not only did he see it, but all the vendors near that end heard the movement of the two of us, but no one came, so Jia Ma Dan came to help. I asked again, did they see the ghost? Da Mao shook his head and said, there shouldn't be, because the whole time was at the back of the house, and Jia Ma Dan caught the other party before he got out.
I breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to myself that it was okay, the people here took care of each other and didn't communicate with each other, and even if the news was guessed, it would at least be kept secret for a while. So that means that in the meantime, we're going to have to get this out of the way.
