One Seventy-Two: The Hungry Captive
Po looked at him in amazement, speechless.
Only then did he realize that this monster was not very old, it should be less than twenty, but because he was locked in a cave, his body was dirty and smelly, and his physique was tall, and he thought he was not small if he didn't look at it seriously.
At this time, the old grandmother took the barrel in Bao's hand and walked towards the monster.
She put the barrel in front of him and scolded, "You starving ghost, where did you get the oily man? Eat it while it's hot! This is a doctor, don't scare him later, I'll let him see you?"
When the monster saw the barrel, he couldn't care about anything else, so he took the barrel and took one hand to pick up the rice, and swallowed it like this, ignoring them again.
The old grandmother sighed, then retreated to Ah Bao's side, and explained to him: "This stupid boy is always nagging except for eating, he said that there is a person in this world who has been drenched in oil, and he will come to save him, give him a big axe, and finally let him live a good life." ”
Ah Bao was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "What's the matter with the oily people?"
The old grandmother shook her head and said confusedly: "God knows what's going on, but this starving ghost has said this since he was a child, and everyone just thinks he's crazy and stupid, and no one takes it seriously." What kind of oily person, no matter how rich he is, he is afraid that he will eat poor!"
When the old grandmother said this, she pulled Ah Bao and said, "Let's stay away first, don't get too close to this starving ghost, when he finishes eating, he will go crazy if he is not full, but don't hurt your comrade doctor." ”
Po followed the grandmother back a few meters, and then watched the monster eat from a distance.
The speed at which he ate could be described as god-speed, and soon the two barrels were turned upside down.
After watching him seriously finish the last grain of rice in the bucket, his grandmother walked slowly towards him and said, "Give me the bucket." ”
After the monster handed him the bucket, the grandmother slowly walked away with the bucket, and when she had put the bucket away, she stepped aside to pick up the dead branches on the ground, presumably taking it back to the fire for cooking.
Then the monster stared blankly at the barrel, and said pitifully, "Grandma, I'm still hungry." ”
Grandma ignored him and continued to collect firewood by herself, when the monster suddenly stood up and said loudly, "Grandma, I'm still hungry!"
"No, I've let you finish eating, and I don't know where to go tomorrow. I'm still hungry, starving to death!" the old man didn't look back, and continued to busy himself.
The monster suddenly rushed forward, only to hear a loud "boom!" from the chains behind him! He roared: "Hungry! I'm still hungry!"
At this moment, he suddenly became irritable, and opened his hands and shouted to the sky: "Hungry—I'm hungry!"
Saying that, he rushed forward without a life, and his body rushed forward one by one, bringing the huge fine steel chain that tightly fastened his left foot, making a loud sound that shook the heavens and the earth!
Every time he rushed forward, he carried a strong wind and emitted terrifying energy! Moreover, because he was still rushing forward endlessly, he saw that his ankles were deeply pressed by the strong iron cuffs, and he soon bleed!
The situation in front of him stunned Po!
As the monsters clash with each other, the whole earth shakes!
He roared forward like a beast, straightening the chains on his feet again and again, and then being pulled back, the huge rushing energy shook the entire cave!
The old grandmother was still nothing, she slowly collected the firewood together, and then slowly chose a sturdy, trembling towards the beast-like grandson, according to his head, while beating and scolding: "Hungry, hungry! One day my old bones are out of gas, you take it and cook it to eat enough! I call you hungry, make you hungry!"
The old woman was obviously angry, and while scolding, she didn't whip hard for a while, and the rampaging monster didn't dare to fight back, and then she didn't rush forward anymore, but only held her head with both hands, slowly retracted, and finally sat back in the hole and didn't move.
After a while, the old grandmother couldn't move, and while panting, she held the branch and scolded: "You starvation and not short-lived retribution, who can't eat enough like you? You me off, and I starved to death, don't waste food in the world and harm others!"
The monster's chest rose and fell violently, and then gradually calmed down, and slowly stopped moving.
The old lady threw a twig at her, and then approached him and said, "Lie down and starve to death! Let this comrade doctor show you, if you can be cured of your disease of retribution from starvation, I will live a few more years!"
The monster was obviously afraid of this grandmother, so he held his head at this time, slowly fell on his side, and lay on the ground without moving.
The old woman pointed at him again and scolded: "You lie down honestly and don't move, if you touch or frighten the doctor comrade, I will also crash into this hole and die, enough for you to eat a full meal!"
The monster didn't say a word, and Po came back to his senses, knowing that he had calmed down, and walked towards him slowly.
He cautiously approached the monster, and found that the chain that locked the monster had obviously exhausted the hearts of the villagers.
It is estimated that they first used explosives to make a large hole in the cave, and then chained a boulder, and then cast it with reinforced concrete.
The place where the iron chain pierced out was a large trumpet-shaped hole, and the wall of the cave had already been polished by the steel chain!
Ah Bao was secretly surprised, and then he realized that this stone wall with steel chains was probably designed by an engineer, because the design was so reasonable that it could consume a lot of energy when the monster attacked, and it would not be crushed by him.
So he asked, "Who tied this chain here? It doesn't seem like an ordinary person made it, right?"
The old woman sighed: "This hungry man was eating at home one day, and because he was not full and went crazy, he smashed the village chief's car to shreds, and the village chief was doing construction work outside, so he had this chain specially designed to lock up this scourge." ”
Ah Bao was relieved and understood that it was really not made by ordinary people. It seems that this village chief obviously hates this monster because his car was destroyed, and even if he is locked here, he will never be able to escape from this cave.
Po looked again, but found that although the place where the chain was locked, many of the thick steel links had been pulled and deformed and cracked, and it was estimated that it would not be long before this monster could no longer be trapped here.
Ah Bao was surprised and surprised, just now he could see the huge energy of this monster, it didn't seem like a person could send it out at all, it is estimated that if this guy tries his best, he is afraid that the cliff can also be overturned!
Po is a sailor, so he is quite familiar with the structure of the human body, he can't imagine that a flesh and blood body can emit such a strong force, and for so many years, he has never eaten enough!
He looked at the monster for a long time, until the old woman said in the back, "Comrade doctor, he is honest now. Please show him, if you can cure him, do a favor and do a good deed, and heal him. If he wants to eat like this again, I can't afford to raise him. I can still move now, but when I'm really old, won't my mother-in-law and grandson have to starve to death?"
Ah Bao nodded, and then he kicked down and said to the monster: "I gave you the pulse, don't move." ”
At this point, he turned back and asked the old woman, "What's his name?"
The old grandmother sighed: "What is the name, everyone is screaming, some are called fierce sons, some are called hungry ghosts, they are screaming nonsense." ”
Ah Bao groaned for a while, and then said: "Mengzi, don't move, lest you hurt your grandmother, I'll treat you!"
The monster didn't squeak, just didn't move, letting him grab his hand.
As soon as Ah Bao took his pulse, he saw him slowly turn his head and said seriously: "Cold hands, play with parasols." I have been dreaming since I was a child, and there was always an old man with a long beard dressed in black, and he told me. ”
As soon as Po put his wrist on him, he immediately found that his body muscles were very normal, and the digestive function of his stomach was quite terrible, and he was completely malnourished, so what was wrong?
At this time, I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard him say this, and asked in amazement, "What did you say?"
The monster was still tired on the ground, and without looking back, he said: "Last night I dreamed of the old man again, and he said, 'Cold hands, with a parasol,' and the oily man came to save me, and your hands are cold, but what about the parasol?"
Ah Bao was surprised at this time, because he was a ghost, although he had a soul bead to protect his body, but the temperature was really cool! And he also said that he was playing a parasol...... Isn't the girl outside wearing a parasol?
But what does it mean to be an oily person, and does it have anything to do with yourself and Juan'er?
He stared blankly at the strange man, and saw him sit up slowly, and said solemnly: "If it were you, the old man would let me tell you, you could untie my shackles and take me to the oily man." ”
For Po, such a handcuff can be solved with a simple unlocking spell, but why does he know that he can untie his shackles?
The monster was still staring straight at Po, and then said, "The old man told me that the person who was drenched in oil was his named disciple, and I was the sauce of the person who was drenched in oil, you are a ghost, right?"
When grandma heard him say this, she couldn't help but scold: "You short-lived retribution grandson, the doctor is kind enough to treat you, and I don't have any money to give him, you still scold him for being a ghost, you are a starving ghost!"
The old man wanted Po to treat his grandson, but he didn't have the money to give it. At this time, when he saw that his grandson said that the doctor was a ghost, he scolded indiscriminately, and looked at Ah Bao carefully, for fear that he would be angry and leave.
Po stood up in shock, he stared at the monster blankly, speechless.
When the monster saw that Po was surprised, he smiled and clapped his hands, making the chains sound chaotically, only to hear him say: "That's right, that's right! The old man told me that it was two ghosts that saved me, a man and a woman, and that one ghost was wearing a parasol?"
Grandma just wanted to scold, but Po finally couldn't help it, he exclaimed in shock, "Who are you?"
When the monster saw Po panicking, he quieted down and muttered as if he had done something wrong, "I'm the oily man's miso...... You don't look like a ghost, and you don't seem to know the oily people, so why are you here?"
Ah Bao stared at this monster closely! He already understood that the person who came to save him as the old man in the monster's dream must be himself and Wan'er! At first, he thought that this person was pretending to be crazy and stupid, but it seemed that he was not like this at all!
So what is the origin of this powerful monster with himself?
Why is he talking nonsense, telling his identity so clearly and in detail? If he really dreamed, the old man must have meant that he would save him, but who was the oily man? What was the matter between them?
Po froze, looking at the monster and not knowing what to do.
The monster retracted in disappointment and muttered, "The old man is lying again...... People are not ghosts and they don't have umbrellas, and I don't want to talk about the rest of the words, it's useless......"
Ah Bao came back to his senses and quickly asked, "What else did the old man say later?"
The monster ignored him at this time, and Ah Bao pondered for a while, and then said solemnly: "Mengzi, you tell me that if the old man says that the person who saved you is really me, I will let you go and let you eat." ”
Only then did the monster roll over and laugh, "You gave me a full meal?"
Although Po was not rich, he estimated that he could still feed him, so he nodded.
The monster then laughed and said, "The old man asked me to follow you, don't go crazy." Then you will take me to meet the oily man, and he will raise me. There is another thing, the old man said that if you take me, you can scare away a person surnamed Gan. ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw that Ah Bao was struck by lightning, and he was stunned!
