Chapter 40: Capturing the Old Bastard Spirit Alive
Dense stars, long river through the sky, a Chinese moon as inlaid in the deep night sky, exceptionally beautiful.
Moonlight and starlight sprinkled into the river, the river surface flooded with light like a good satin, soft and smooth, bright and beautiful.
The river's edge of the grass, out of the frogs chirping bursts, and the northern rice paddies in the frogs chirping echo, like in the performance of a piece of nameless beautiful music.
The river flowed with a rushing current, and after reaching the bridge, it leaped over the dam and into the bridge hole, striking out a rumbling sound of water.
A few of us young men were sitting on the ground at the mouth of the riverbank, lighting cigarettes and laughing, and looking at the time, it was almost midnight.
Bathing women girls one after another to come, one after another to go, whether it is to come or go, will be on our gang of people look angrily, scolded a few shameless, small sex and other dirty words, causing us a few giggles. This can not be blamed on those compatriots scolded us, people bathing under the bridge, we are good, all sitting on the river embankment mouth talking and laughing, from the compatriots bathing place, not more than fifty meters, if not for the bridge and bridge piers blocking the line of sight, then these compatriots naked look will definitely let us see. The good thing is that these compatriots also know that we are in a position where they can not see them, so just pointing and chattering in a low voice scolded us for a few words, but also did not affect their mood to bathe.
Rural women spicy ruthless, although on the surface or to pretend to be shy and embarrassed, scolded us twice, but from their hearts, they simply did not take us a few hairy children as a matter of fact.
I remember once a few of us bathing in the river in broad daylight, several people standing naked on the river bank is laughing and joking, and suddenly saw the riverbank far away from a few young women, panicked a few of us bare-assed big boys rushed to jump into the river. As a result, guess what? After the women came to the riverbank facing us, they smiled and did not go away, just looked at us a few young people jumping in the river with only their heads exposed, and laughed and scolded: "Yo, a few kids who are a little bit older than me have not yet grown all the hairs, and they know that they are shy? What are you afraid your sisters-in-law will see? A little kid, you sisters-in-law have never seen anything?"
They made us blush with embarrassment before they wiggled their asses and left.
No bullshit, that is to say, the night is getting deeper and deeper, bathing female compatriots see is only to go, and then no one, we are looking for the time is almost right?
It is said that the headless ghost with a lamp, is in the night after twelve o'clock will appear, we a few people naturally want to wait here after twelve o'clock, to see how the headless ghost with a lamp appeared, and whether it will carry a lamp to see us clearly, dare to poison us?
If there really is a headless ghost, we don't know whether it dares to poison us, but one thing is certain, we will definitely poison it.
After a while, I thought it was about time, so I said, "Yunliang, look at your watch, what time is it?"
Chang Yunliang raised his wrist and said, "Eleven fifty."
"Almost almost, brothers, all quiet ah, don't scare the headless ghost dare not come ……" I hurriedly waved my hand and said.
So the brothers were all quiet, and in their hearts they thought, in the end, people are afraid of ghosts or ghosts are afraid of people ah?
Tightly staring at the bridge below the rushing river, looking forward to the legendary light appeared, if there is really that light appeared, then, our brothers and sisters immediately rushed down, jumped to the bridge hole, with the headless ghost with a lamp over, grandmother, to see what in the end it is the gods.
Not much time, brothers can not help it, this kind of quiet waiting for us young people, is absolutely torment. Chen Jin said: "This motherfucker is not really let us scared, do not dare to come?"
"That's right, it's probably because we were too loud just now and let it hear us." Chang Yunliang nodded and said.
Xue Zhigang simply said, "Perhaps there is no headless ghost at all, still carrying a lamp, I bah, surely Xu Erdog and Zhang Qingping two people made up …… nonsense."
"That's not necessarily." Yao Jing said, "I guess there is another reason."
This kid said a half-assed words, the brothers have looked at him, I asked: "What reason? You son of a bitch say ah."
Yao Jing heh heh snapped a laugh, some embarrassed like, stumbled and said: "Just now so many pussy in the bridge under the bath, you say if they happen to come to that …… that thing to ward off evil spirits ah, so the headless ghosts do not come to the chanting."
"That one? Which is that one?" Guo Chao asked doubtfully.
Several of us on the sidelines are secretly happy up, Chen Jin simply slap on the back of Yao Jing's head, laughing on the ground hit two rolls, scolded: "You dog day really can think, I fuck, how do you girl think out of it? Haha …… also that it, how not to say this ah?"
"Right right, in the end which ah? Haha ……" I also covered my stomach and laughed.
Chang Yunliang rushed to Guo Chao a look of regret, said seriously, "You a fool, a look at the girl when she went to school did not study properly, that, that is …… menstruation well."
"Ha ha, ha ha ha …… or Chang Yunliang know more ah! Cultured people, big intellectuals!" A few of us immediately made fun of it.
"Oh, so it is this ah." Guo Chao suddenly realized.
When the few of us heard Guo Chao's words, we all laughed again.
When the brothers and sisters were still laughing, a cool breeze came from the river, the cool breeze dipped into the body, the brothers and sisters couldn't help but feel comfortable, in this hot summer, it's rare to have such a cool and comfortable wind ah.
I can not help but squint my eyes, mouth muttered: "This small wind blowing good, really comfortable ……" open eyes along the direction of the wind blowing to see, only to see that the stone bridge in the center of the hole, vaguely translucent light, all unlike the water surface reflection of the moonlight starlight. I hurriedly stood up, pressed his voice and said, "Hey hey, brothers, quickly, headless ghosts come, there is light, there is light ……"
Brothers and sisters to rise up, to look under the bridge, is not it, the center of the hole in the bridge, indeed, through some light to, suddenly bright and dark.
"Brothers! On!" Chen Jin beckoned, cat waist carrying steps carefully toward the bridge.
Brothers immediately followed, each child with the village in the middle of the night like the little devils, a breathless gaze, almost to the soles of the feet bundled with a layer of sacks.
After arriving at the bridge, the brothers slowly took off their slippers and walked barefoot toward the stone steps under the bridge.
We took off our pants slowly to the stone steps, and gently slid down the stone steps into the river. The water was gushing out of the bridge hole, the water was turbulent, but the water was loud and crashing, and the bridge hole was rumbling. This makes the actions of the few of us more bold, anyway, there is the sound of the water to cover our movements.
Still Chen Jin and I walked in front of the two, I have already pulled out the belt tightly held in the hand, thinking that later, no matter what we see is a thing, we do not say anything immediately with the belt to whip it. The other brothers cat waist followed me and Chen Jin's back, turbulent and water so that the brothers in the water to walk unsteady, the result of Guo Chao was washed into the water, Xue Zhigang and Chang Yunliang two people rushed to pull him.
They have stretched out their fingers to their mouths, signaling not to make a sound.
The water surface is flooded with stars and moonlight, and the water flowing undulating in waves, flowing out from the bridge hole.
The bridge was wide, five meters wide, so the bridge hole naturally seemed much deeper. Chen Jin and I walked through the first hole of the bridge with the water flowing through us, and we stood under the bridge pier between the first hole and the one in the center.
The two of us took two deep breaths and prepared for the attack, then looked at each other and nodded, then …… leapt out violently and struck out at the center hole in the bridge hole.
The back of the brothers and sisters also rushed to pour out, and ran to the center of the hole in the bridge in unison.
Chen Jin and I have rushed into the bridge hole, just one into not a meter away, we can not help but freeze, the bridge hole in the light is not very good, only the undulating surface of the water slightly light, a flash, in the north side of the abutment wall, the two flashing yellow-green light bulb like things hanging on the abutment wall, from the water probably more than a foot high it.
"Hey, what kind of ground work?" Chen Jin yelled.
Being surprised in the brotherhood of several can not help but laugh, the dog's Chen Jin, to this time, but also to a classic Japanese devil words.
However, those two "light bulb" seems to simply do not understand the words of Chen Jin, so post wall, motionless, cold gaze at us.
Chen Jin turned his head and whispered to me, "Yinle, this thing looks like the eyes of something, let's go down and take a look!"
"Cheng, I think so." I nodded and shouted to the back, "Brothers, stay away, grandma, Jinzi and I will go over to see what it is."
With those words, Chen Jin and I raised our guard and slowly walked towards the inside.
The water was waist deep, the water was turbulent, when the upstream river water jumped over the dam into the bridge hole, it splashed up countless water bubbles, the white flowers swirled in the uppermost part of the bridge hole, the sound of clattering and rumbling water resounded together, making people's moods not help but be uplifted.
In fact it wasn't too far from those two bulb-like things, it was about five meters away if you counted at an oblique angle. Chen Jin and I two people if you let go of the footsteps, a few steps can rush to the front, but …… more or less in the heart of this kind of inexplicable things a little taboo, so we two action speed is still very slow and very careful.
Waiting to walk to the distance from the two light bulbs and more than two meters away, I and Chen Jin two people see clearly what is the thing, suddenly two people are violently stood still, stunned to look at the two light bulbs, or, have the two light bulbs of the thing.
Boy, what kind of thing is it? Really something two eyes, that thing pointed head, like a big melon, from the water inside out so long a big thick neck, head and neck about the same thickness, to the surface of the water a foot high, and then the head is low, bent into ninety degrees, flat look at us.
After I took a look at this thing carefully, the nameless fire in my heart was lit immediately, stepped forward, the belt in my hand swung out at a fast speed, pumping towards that thing, and cursed in my mouth, "Fuck your grandmother, I'll smoke you to death!"
That thing looks slow, and very stupid, but in such a short distance, my belt did not hit its head, its head looks to be slowly sinking into the water, along with the two bulb-like eyes, so disappeared in the clattering water.
"Where to run!" Chen Jin bellowed, crouching down and stretching his arms out in the water, trying to stop the thing that was attempting to escape, while shouting to his brothers outside the bridge hole, "Brothers, quickly stop the hole, don't let this old bastard spirit escape!"
As you know, it's really an old wangbaoshen, those two light bulbs are its eyes, to be honest, I still don't understand how that old wangbaoshen's eyes can release such a bright and shining light, and also, why does it have to run under the bridge and release the light like it's full of food?
In the old Wang Bark unhurriedly sank into the water at that moment, has taken back the belt, the same is fast step forward, reach out to the water to touch it, thinking that this time what can't let it run, have to use the belt to trap it!
The heart is thinking so, the bridge hole in the water suddenly intensified, underwater as a bomb suddenly exploded like the original in the bridge hole rumbling back and forth in the river to the fury, set off a huge wave, one by one of the force of that seems to want to lift the entire bridge to the up.
Chen Jin and I was shocked, not yet able to react, let the huge force washed out of the bridge, a rush out more than ten meters away, and when we struggled to stand firm in the water, standing on our necks in the water, can only reveal our heads. Although a few other buddies originally in the bridge hole outside the guard waiting, but in front of the powerful water, they were not spared, also washed out more than ten meters away.
A few brothers all stood in the water, revealing their heads, looking at the bridge hole in fear.
Only to see in the bridge hole in the middle, slightly glowing water, a large black shadow standing in the water, indeed did not disclose, round body and two front paws in the water slowly swaying.
I thought to myself, "What kind of plotting and scheming is this motherfucker old bastard spirit engaging in? Shrinking the head in the shell, so far away to see the past, really a headless ghost, as for the light, that is, the old wangbajing two eyes, also shrunk to the inside of the shell, but the eyes face up, as if to open a searchlight upwards, the top of the black bridge two circles of light. Than the flashlight beam is not worse.
"Fuck, what does this old bastard want to do?" Chen Jin wiped the water on his face and said angrily, "Brothers, kill!"
As soon as the voice fell, Chen Jin's body moved and swam upstream against the water, furiously going to fight with the old bastard.
I hurriedly swam upstream, and while swimming, I shouted, "Jinzi, let's be careful this time, this old bastard is very capable in the water, we can't stand it!"
Behind them, they heard the sound of splashing water. The boys were all swimming upstream against the current. Chang Yunliang shouted, ‘Hey, guys, shouldn't we get out of the water first and then figure out what to do next…’
His words have not yet fallen, above the water once again strengthened, and one after another wave smashed over, we a few simply can not top the impact of the water surging, immediately washed up in pieces, have fallen back, hastily swim along the water to the shore.
After we leaned over the shore, we were already more than thirty meters away from the bridge.
The water slowed down a lot, brothers have boarded the shore, furious and some fear and anxiety to look at the distance under the bridge in the middle of that hole in the huge body, that damn old bastard spirit.
It is still so wobbly and unhurried in the bridge hole in the water walking, walking around, wobbling around, I do not understand why it has to shrink its head in that bastard shell, it is not afraid of the bridge collapsed to the head to hit?
Chen Jin said: "Fuck it, what can we do? We can't get to it, so we don't even have a chance to fight it."
"I think it's better to find Hu Laoshi, we can't do it at all." Yao Jing said.
"Go go go, besides looking for Hu Laoshi is looking for Hu Laoshi, Hu Laoshi is your real father?" Chen Jin scolded.
I frowned and thought about it and said, "Stop bickering, go go go, go up to the bridge, see if that old bastard spirit dares to go up to the bridge to fight with us!"
After saying that, I led the way down the river bank towards the bridge.
Brothers hurriedly followed up, while walking, Chen Jin said while cursing: "Or not all say shrinking head turtle shrinking head turtle, Wang Bao this kind of thing is his mother's coward, do not dare to meet the battle …… head on."
More than thirty meters away from a moment to, I first rushed up to the bridge, stood to the middle of the hole in the bridge above, grasping the head rushed to the bottom of the hole in the bridge shouted: "Hey, you motherfucker have the guts to come up to the old man one-on-one, have no guts ah? Hey hey, wimp, you fucking no wonder they say you shrinking head turtle ah ……"
"Old bastard fine, are you really stupid or fake stupid ah? If you change to do well, come to do a fight in the morning!" Chen Jin cheered from the side.
The other brothers and sisters looked at me and Chen Jin two people crazy crying and laughing, this is not nonsense? Really take the old bastard essence as a person?
Shouted so a long time, or what is not moving, and the bridge hole sub-bottom is no longer that flash a flash of Wang Bao vision.
I wonder, can't it be that the old bastard has had enough fun and ran away? Or were we angry fainted in the water?
"Son of a bitch, it is not possible to run away, right?" Chen Jin lying on the bridge, vigorously probe down to see, "Hey really no, I fuck!"
I heard on the gas, three or two steps to run to the bridge on the dam pier, jumped directly into the middle of the hole in the bridge, thinking about the old man from the bottom of the rush, then, Wang Bajing through the water to wash me down, I want to be from the top and bottom of the words, it can not go against the water up against the top of my right? Even if it is rushing down again, I also have to have to pass the old Wang Bajing in front of me, hit a bit to count, if …… in case I can use the belt to beat a few times, or use my hand to embrace it, it is also OK ah!
After the plopping jump, I couldn't stand still in the water pouring down from above, and was soon washed into the bridge hole along with the rapids, I struggled to stabilize myself in the water, and the same seemed to reach out and flop around inside the water, trying to look for the old Wang Bajing.
Sure enough, my hand touched the edge of the smooth bastard shell, and I immediately clasped one end of it with my finger, while shouting, "I've caught it, come down and help!"
Just as my voice fell, Chen Jin jumped down from the bridge along with the water, followed by Xue Zhigang and Chang Yunliang, and quickly rushed to my front under the raging and turbulent water.
At the same time, a strong force erupted violently from the place where my hand was grasping, as if that old Wang Bastard was trying hard to break away from my hand, a vicious swing, my hand was still clasped in the gap where the claws of the Wang Bastard and the shell met, as a result of that the Wang Bastard's shell twisted, my fingertips in the gap was twisted and twisted and dragged fiercely.
"Ah!" At that moment, I couldn't help but cry out in pain, feeling as if my fingertips were broken, my right hand whirled the belt is pumping ah, helplessly, my left hand is underwater, and that bastard shell that I grabbed is also underwater, the belt is viciously pumped on the water surface, it is not helpful at all.
Chang Yunliang and Chen Jin, Xue Zhigang three people see my can't help but be dragged down to the bottom, hastily dripping water up to reach out and pull me, at the same time reach along my arm to the water to touch, so they also touched the bastard shell like things, but that thing smooth simply nowhere to make force. Touch to touch, Chen Jin's hand finally also buckle a gap, immediately hand force pull, at this time Chang Yunliang's hand also stretched down, although nowhere to force, but Chang Yunliang this kid fast reaction, directly then the force of the water flow rushed to the bottom of the king's eight shells, in the water effort to stand, and then pushed his hands in front of his chest, blocking the king's eight shells downstream swimming.
Xue Zhigang simply squatted down, the whole person is submerged underwater, and then both hands to the bottom of the shell, struggling to the end of the rise.
Brothers are using the force, I hurriedly pull out my hand, do not care about the intense pain in the fingertips, simply open arms, a stretch into the water, tightly embraced the eight shells, yelled to hold up.
Clattering, waves rolling on the water, a roughly the size of an ordinary round table that is lifted out of the water, of course, this is still with the help of Xue Zhigang as well as Chang Yunliang two people's strength, and Chen Jin's right hand is still hard to buckle in the gap between the shell and the claws of the king's eight connected to the Chen Jin grinning viciously cursed: "Quick, lift it out, throw to the shore!"
"Hurry up, holy shit, can't catch it anymore!" Chang Yunliang shouted, while moving his steps towards the bridge hole, at the same time, just like me, he also stretched out his arms and chest to hold the big bastard in his arms.
As soon as Xue Zhigang looked at the appearance, he also immediately stretched out his arms to support the old bastard from the ground.
When the huge shell was just exposed to the surface of the water, it was still an oval-shaped thing, surrounded by nothing, then suddenly stretched out the limbs, and revealed a huge head, the two eyes on the pointed head immediately emitted a bright and eye-catching light.
I panicked in my heart, shouted: "careful, do not let this dog day bite!" Between shouts, I free my right hand, hand belt ruthlessly whip to the head of Wang Bajie.
As soon as the words fell, that bastard's head twisted twice and flew, biting fiercely towards Xue Zhigang's shoulder.
Just when that bastard's mouth was about to bite Xue Zhigang's shoulder, the belt in my hand had already swung over, snapping accurately hit the old bastard's mouth, the bastard was in pain, the pointed head immediately flew like a shrinking back, at the same time shrinking back there are four claws.
I am very happy, it seems that this thing still can not ah, nothing scary, I shouted: "brothers, carry it up, we stew the eight soup drink, work harder oh!"
At this time, the bridge hole and came a few plop plop sound, Liu Bin Guo Chao they also jumped down, a few brothers all surrounded up, tightly surrounded together, you reach out to me to reach out to everyone hand, embracing some of the bridge to the outside of the hole to go.
Stepped waist-deep water, we cheerfully carried the large king's eight shells rushed ashore, and then hula scampered to the bridge, the king's eight shells thrown hard on the concrete bridge, thunk loud bang, the king's eight shells in the hard surface of the bridge smashed a bit, and then also wobbled a few times, only to stabilize the immobility of the.
Well, this Wang Bastard is considered belly to the sky cover down, no way out of it.
Everyone panting, Chen Jin waved his hand and said: "Liu Bin, Liu Bin, quickly go to the old man's cigarettes to bring, in the following is the stone steps in the pants, we celebrate celebrate, grandma's ……".
He shouted, a few other buddies are moving, now is not more than before, the brothers are rich masters, who is still poor so two packs of cigarette money ah? So everyone has cigarettes in their pockets.
I didn't move, holding the belt around the big bastard shells around two circles, the corner of the mouth turned up to show a smug smile, Grandma, listen to the old Hu Lao Si said this old bastard spirit how much how powerful, but it is just like that, at first it is quite capable of doing it, a few of us in the water washed is sparse and dizzy, but still can't stand the old man to play horizontal, go down to the old thing to fish up, to see what else you have! I'm not sure what I'm going to do about it.
Brothers took the cigarettes over, have lit a cigarette smoking, naked on the bridge around the bastard shell to see, each face with an excited smile.
I swung the belt in the old bastard shell above a few times, and then smugly said: "how brothers, what monster evil, all fucking is a paper tiger, take a good rest, a moment to carry this thing to find Hu Laoshi, so that the old girl quite look, this is what he said that the awesome old bastard spirit … … …"
"That's it, but that's all, haha." Chen Jin said laughingly, his face full of disdain.
Brothers laughed, they also heard me and Chen Jin two people said, Hu Lao Si how how to say that this old bastard spirit powerful, difficult to deal with, and even the old age in the time can not be dealt with, now how? Easy to deal with, of course, this is also thanks to Zhao Yinle students, and his hands of the invincible belt, really powerful!
Yao Jing suddenly said, "Not right ah, this old bastard essence …… is really so unbeatable?"
"Huh?" Brothers all quieted down, think about it, this victory is also too easy to come a little bit right?
"Hey don't say, is a little bit wrong, this old thing at first quite powerful, rushed us all to pieces, how now ……" Chen Jin also frowned.
I heard them say this, the heart is also flooded with ambiguity, crooked head around the eight shells and turned two circles, did not find anything wrong, I smoked a mouthful of cigarettes, swinging the belt again in the eight shells beat a few times, said: "No problem, right? Take a look at it, it's a genuine bastard shell, it's right."
"But how come this bastard shell doesn't move? It couldn't be that this old bastard spirit lost his shell and ran away, right?" Chang Yunliang walked to the front and kicked the shell twice, saying, "No, it's still a bit wrong."
It seems that this old Wang Bark just want to dispel our concerns, Chang Yunliang just finished this sentence, the old Wang Bark shell suddenly stretched out the limbs and a pointed head, after the head exposed, turned around and looked, and then the two pairs of eyes again shot out a bright beam of light, and that like a light bulb like eyes, clearly penetrating the ferocious gaze, it is very clear that this old Wang Bark on us a few very resentful ah. It is obvious that this old bastard is very resentful towards us.
I swung up my belt and hit the old bastard's pointed head twice, the old bastard ate the pain and immediately shrunk his head and limbs back into his shell.
I said: "that, now you rest assured it, this thing is afraid of this belt in my hand, hey, not to say shrinking head turtle shrinking head turtle, it is too small gall, otherwise, with its ability we can not catch it, the problem is that it is small gall, see my hand of the belt made of the skin of the crow's nest, immediately afraid, not to mention the trouble we have, and do not even dare to run! I think it was thinking, "Oh, I've run into the Wu Ting, I can't run away, I might as well not run, with my hard shell, what can you do about me?"
The brothers were amused by my analysis, and they did just see the king's head and legs exposed in the king's shell, and naturally they were sure that this was the old king's spirit.
Chen Jin smiled and said, "I think that bastard must not only think this way, it also has other ideas."
"What idea?"
The brothers all looked at Chen Jin, not knowing what this kid was going to say.
"It must be thinking that it won't be killed when it meets Yin Le anyway, so it's not afraid anymore." Chen Jin said rightfully.
"Then why? Silverle wouldn't want it's life?" The brothers were even more puzzled.
Chen Jin spread his hands and said, "I said why are you guys so stupid? Didn't listen to what Yinle just said, what those bastards think in his heart he knows, it's possible that this kid is also a bastard, bastard meets bastard, can still kill each other?"
"Chen Jin you son of a bitch, you're the bastard!" I was furious, kicked over, Chen Jin laughed and dodged away.
A few brothers and sisters reacted for a long time before they understood, immediately laughing and joking.
After a while, I waved my hand and said: "Okay, it's not early, everyone hurry to carry this old bastard spirit to Hu Laoshi send over, grandmother, let him know what is called guts, what is the young man! Rely on him Hu Laoshi to get rid of the evil things, everything will have to be delayed ……"
"Yes, that's …… it."
The brothers nodded their heads in response to me, and then surrounded up to lift up the old bastard shell, and together they walked towards the village.
