As soon as the old man said this, my head was dizzy. What he meant was clearly not even sure of himself. He was not sure, and my life would hang.
The only thing I can count on now is that the old man has better luck than me and can get through this barrier. Or, he suddenly showed kindness and solved my blood curse before dying.
There was no way. I completely dispelled the idea of escaping and stayed in this small cave with the old man to retreat.
The old man often gets sick. When he gets sick, he hangs upside down on the cave wall like a bat. Only in this way can he get better. Usually, the old man wants to drink blood, and I go to the mountains twice a day to catch rabbits for him. It lasted for about five or six days, and I couldn't figure out whether the old man got better or worsened.
This old man also often chats with me, but the content of the chat is basically he is asking, I answer. What he asked was all right and wrong on the river beaches and lakes. As expected, he hasn't appeared in the world for ten years, and no one can guess the changes in these ten years.
I have been chatting with the old man for a long time, and I also wondered if I would ask him about the situation. He has been in this big river for the past ten years, and he should know better than me about the movement in the big river. I still want to ask about the three-eyed floating corpse.
"Did you ever see a three-eyed floating corpse when you were walking east and west with the big fish in the river?" I tentatively asked, "When I went down to the river, I heard someone say that there was a floating corpse in the river. The three-eyed floating corpse looks scary."
"Three-eyed floating corpse?" The old man suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at me unblinkingly: "Do you know three-eyed floating corpse?"
I suddenly regretted it, because the gaze I looked at the old man at the moment was quite scary, as if my question touched his taboo. This old man can't be offended. I waved my hand quickly and said, "I just listened to others and asked casually. If you don't want to answer, then don't say it."
The old man looked at me for a while, looked away, and turned to look at the cave wall. At this time, I vaguely noticed that the old man's expression seemed to have more sadness and more resentment.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not at you, I just remembered something." The old man looked at me in a little fear, and after a while, he said: "I am like this, and it has something to do with the three-eyed floating corpse. Hearing the three-eyed floating corpse made me feel a little unhappy."
"You? What's the matter with you? Why is it related to the three-eyed floating corpse?"
The old man squinted his eyes again. At this moment, his gaze was a bit scary.
"It happened a long time ago." The old man seemed to have squeezed a lot of past events in his heart. He hadn't told anyone about these past events. He held it in his stomach for so long, and it was very uncomfortable.
"Then you just talk about it." I took advantage of the old man's recollection of the past, and leaned forward, and said: "Anyway, I am idle and I am idle. Talk about it, just vomit bitterness."
The old man habitually glanced at me, but this time he didn't get angry. He thought about it and said, "Do you remember, I told you that the people of Hanako Club wanted to find the fish god, and then followed the fish god. To find the treasure, I said they are all stupid people."
"I remember, you are so
Say them. "Now I think about it for myself, it's really stupid that Hanako will meet those people, just relying on a legend of the rivers and lakes, desperately sending so many people to search for the fish god, and finally got more than a dozen lives in vain. After being killed by the fish god, Hanako would have nowhere to get revenge.
"I said they were stupid, but in fact, I was just as stupid as I was back then."
Until now, the old man has not told me his name and origin, but I have already seen it, he must have been a gangster before.
Ten years ago, the old man was probably thirty-four-five years old, and he was in the prime of life. His skill is good, and his brain is also clever, and he has made a name for himself by joining hands with his two brothers on both sides of the river.
At that time, they learned about Guo Tong’s treasure, and at the same time learned about the legend of the fish god.
Not many people know the legend of the fish god. Some people say that that very big fish has been alive for thousands of years. It was the horse that the owner of the treasure used to ride across the river. As long as you find the big fish, you can follow the vine and find the treasure.
The old man at the time did not have the current state of mind, and in front of the treasure, it was impossible for anyone to remain unmoved. He and his brother secretly planned for a long time, and when all the clues were found out, they made very careful preparations, and then worked together to prepare to catch the big fish.
The two brothers were so skilled and experienced that they didn't even find another helper. In their opinion, no matter who they are looking for to help, even their own relatives may reveal secrets. Only the brothers of a female compatriot can be trusted, so the two brothers set up an ambush near a river called Zoumaying.
They specially found a blind man to calculate the specific whereabouts of the big fish. Big fish had to pass through the Zoumaying River. When everything was ready, the two of them waited quietly on the boat on the shore, waiting for the big fish to be caught.
In the middle of the night, the legendary fish god passed by here, and as soon as he passed, he immediately fell into the trap set by the brothers.
The trap they set up included not only a net, but also a few harpoons specially designed to catch big fish. The fish passed through the river and got into the net. They were immediately stabbed by the harpoons. Watching the fish god continue to struggle in the fishing net.
"That big fish was hurt all over, the more struggling, the heavier the injury. In the end, it broke off a few harpoons, but it was exhausted."
The old man silently recounted the scene at that time. To him, that scene seemed to have just happened yesterday, and his memory was still fresh.
The fish god struggled for a long time, and finally stopped moving. The brothers waited until this time before driving the boat closer, trying to gather the fishing net, and then dragged it to the shore. Their purpose is to catch the fish god alive, but they don't want the fish god to die like this. Therefore, when collecting the fishing nets, the two took a close look at the wound on the fish god's body.
Just as they stopped and watched, the still fish god suddenly set off a wave of water. This fish god has lived for too long, has spirituality, and knows to pretend to be dead to seduce people. The two brothers were taken aback, and then began to fight back.
Their skills are very good, however, no one is sure about fighting such a big fish in the water. Fish god
The body is so huge that with a casual flick of his tail in the water, two people can be thrown into the air.
After fighting bitterly for a while, both of them were injured. The old man also thought very well at the time, that if you stay in the green hills without worrying about no firewood, you have to save your life first.
They started to retreat and began to think of ways to move towards the river bank. But the fish god was obviously angered and turned upside down in the river. In desperation, the two of them had to completely abandon their boats and look for opportunities to swim ashore.
When he retreated, the old man was caught off guard and was lifted by a big fish to a height of more than two feet. He was directly dizzy and finally landed heavily on the boat. Speaking of it, the old man had bad luck. He was dizzy in the air and couldn't control his balance. When he fell into the boat, there happened to be a machete with an upward blade on the boat.
The back of the old man's head was cut off. At this time, the fish god walked around again to attack the old man's brother. The two people were entangled by the fish gods and there was no way out. His brother stepped back two steps and retreated to the old man's side. Almost half of the fish god got on the big boat, and the fish mouth that was enough to swallow people alive had already approached the two of them.
At the moment, the old man's brother may be really frightened, or it may have been premeditated. In order to survive, he actually grabbed the faint old man and threw it directly at the mouth of the fish. The old man didn't know anything yet, and was swallowed by the fish god all at once.
Although he was dizzy, he fell into this field, knowing the priorities. He firmly supported it with both hands, but refused to slip into the fish's belly. And his brother, taking advantage of the opportunity of the fish god to swallow the old man, he went into the water by himself and got away in the chaos.
At that moment, the old man was ashamed. He never dreamed that his brother, who usually wears a pair of trousers, would throw himself out as a substitute in the face of life and death.
"At that time, I thought, I just die. I live for half my life. What is the energy of living." The old man sighed imperceptibly and said: "But again, why should I die? Why should I die? ?"
The old man's heart was filled with grief and anger. It was in this situation that he didn't know where to come from, so he stuck in the fish's mouth forcibly and refused to be swallowed.
The old man didn't know how long he had been supporting him. Afterwards, he also gradually found the trick to support his body on two legs so that he would not be swallowed in his stomach. After suffering like this for several days, the old man couldn't get down or get out. The more he got through, the more exhausted he got, and finally he passed out.
Before fainting, the old man knew that this time was definitely over, and he couldn't survive anymore.
However, I don't know how long it took before the old man woke up. He found that he was still stuck in the fish's mouth and had not been swallowed.
It's just that when the old man wakes up completely, he is going crazy. He felt that the back of his head didn't know when he grew up with the big fish. If he broke free, he would first need to separate the head from the big fish.
If the brains are separated, can people still live? Under the madness of the old man, he didn't know how many times he tried, but there was still no way to escape.
