The year that is about to pass is generally smooth. Although the rainfall this year is less than in the past, the village where the three Jiang brothers live has experienced a rainy season that they have not encountered in decades.
Fortunately, the drought came later and did not have a too serious impact on the crops. But if you count carefully, it really hasn't rained at all in the past three or four months.
In this era, productivity is already considerable. People's awareness and methods of drought prevention and relief are unprecedentedly good. Even if it doesn't rain for several months, there will be no harvest. However, there is one thing that makes the three brothers of the Jiang family think...
The representatives and others were very worried. I don’t know when, more and more people began to talk, saying that it had not rained for several months, and was it a "drought"?
Most people think that "Hanba" is a kind of ghost, but to be more precise, "Hanba" should be regarded as a variant of zombie. It is said that the level of this kind of thing is higher than that of black zombie and white zombie, and its ability is higher than that of black zombie and white zombie.
Ordinary zombies are much more powerful. I have looked up relevant information and investigated, but I have never encountered one. If the suspicions of the three Jiang brothers are true, then this matter may really be a bit tricky.
As we all know, there are eighteen types of zombies. The most common ones are black and white. People say that after zombies are formed, they will grow fine hairs on their bodies. Most of them have white hair, followed by black hair. This kind of thing has different levels.
Neither I nor my abilities are very strong. It’s very troublesome when I encounter it at night, but it’s easy to deal with it during the day. I
I heard that in the past, in the old forests of Changbai Mountain, you would encounter one or two like this every ten years. An old man once told me that in the past, there were always those black and white evils that came up in the dark.
, sucking the blood of cattle and sheep, counting from the early days of liberation, there have been hundreds of livestock victims.
At the beginning, everyone didn't know who did this kind of thing, so they started talking about it. Some said it was a black blind man, and some said it was a leopard that came down from the mountain. But after squatting in a pit at night for several days, they caught it.
But it was a big monkey with white hair. When everyone saw it, they didn’t know what it was. Rumors said that this thing was
Maybe it was the wild man in the mountains who was said to be a god. There was also a rich imagination. It was rumored that the muscles of this thing could cure diseases and prolong life. After several discussions, the villagers who captured him actually used a big pot to cook the "white meat".
The "hairy savages" divided it and ate it. That night, corpses were scattered all over the field, and more than thirty people died in one breath.
After the death, the body was swollen and green, with black and purple eye circles and spots on the outside of the body. There were obvious signs of poisoning. When the police from the police station received the report and came to investigate, they thought they had encountered a gas bomb left by the Japs.
For months, it has made people panic.
Later, a carpenter from out of town came over and overheard this incident. After careful identification, he concluded that the captured white-haired savage was not some strange creature, but just an old rice dumpling that escaped from the mountains.
In fact, such things are not that rare. In ancient records about savages and snowmen, there are many cases where the suspicion of zombies can be seen. However, there are some things that are difficult to say without seeing them with your own eyes, and there is no need to complain.
Say a few words crookedly.
The three Jiang brothers, Guigui and I, the six of us were lying on the long-distance bus chatting about some strange things happening there. I don’t know if I’m a little sensitive, but I always felt that those people’s words seemed to be deliberately misleading us.
As if my eyes were fixed on the creature called "Drought Demon", I sat next to Gui Gui, Gui Gui leaned against the window, and Xiao Nizi faced the window and looked outside happily, and I, listening
I fell asleep while listening to it.
In fact, I have a chronic disease that has persisted for many years: motion sickness.
Others who get car sickness can't stand the constant shaking of the car, but I'm different from them. I can't stand the smell of gasoline. Even the slightest smell of gasoline will make me sick for a long time.
Therefore, when I go out, I prefer transportation such as trains and airplanes. No matter how difficult it is, cycling and walking are also good. But the long-distance bus makes me the most uncomfortable.
However, people have already bought the tickets, so I can’t get any privileges just because of this. Thinking of this, I can only wrap my clothes tightly and turn my head.
I slept in a daze for most of the day, and ate some of the cakes Guigui brought. When I almost couldn't hold on any longer, we finally arrived at the station.
When I got off the bus and walked out of the station, I saw the boss of the Jiang family holding a Nokia and calling people over. After waiting at the door for a while, a blue open-top agricultural tricycle roared over with a long tail sound, and drove
of
He was a middle-aged man with a dark face, in his thirties, who looked cunning and optimistic. I held my stomach and glanced at him. Before I could see his face clearly, I saw a row of big white teeth shining in the afterglow of the setting sun.
...
The boss of the Jiang family called the man over and introduced him to us. As expected, this guy has a father-son relationship with the boss of the Jiang family. After a simple greeting, we jumped into the car, and then it was as if we were jumping in line.
Driving slowly towards the village involved.
It takes two hours to drive from the bus station to the village where they live. From this point of view, the agricultural tricycle should have been waiting here a long time ago.
Sitting in the car, I was blown by the cold wind, and I finally came back to life. Along the way, the surrounding scenery kept changing, from scattered small buildings, to neat national highways, to the fertile and wild North China.
plain, following
And when we boarded a small embankment, and when it was almost dark, we saw the little fluorescent lights in several villages far and near, bright as mirrors under the moonlight, but lying weakly between the embankments.
of a large river.
This year, we have indeed encountered a drought. The river has shrunk severely. Looking at the distance between the dams on both sides, normally the width of the river would be hundreds of meters. But now, counting the depth and shallowness, the widest
The place is less than twenty meters away, and judging from the surrounding terrain, the water surface in some places may only be as deep as the feet.
"Is this often like this here?" Sitting in the car, swaying along with the ups and downs of the terrain, Master Lin frowned and asked the boss of the Jiang family who was chattering away. Master Lin had said that this place was his hometown.
, asking such a question now is enough to prove that this old man has not been back for many years...
