Chapter 13 Inducing the Dragon
Everyone has a deep past buried in their hearts. There are long and short, there are joys and sorrows, there are laughter, there are tears, there are light, and perhaps darkness. These things are sometimes called privacy by others, and they can see through people's hearts and find those hidden things in the depths of their hearts at a glance. Huang Hailin did not believe it before, but now God, it happened in front of me vividly. Looking at the old man Cao who was gradually disappearing away, his spine, and the dry smoke gun in his hand, all of which surprised Huang Hailin.
He tried to calm himself down, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.
The bright moon was in the sky, and the night in the small mountain village looked particularly cool. The yellow sparrow was worried. Since Huang Hailin decided to attract the dragon again, he felt that something would happen. He didn't sleep well all night. He to toss and over sat up, but he didn't expect that Xiao Di next to him was very alert and suddenly opened his eyes. .
"Brother Huang Que, what's wrong?" Xiao Di asked.
The yellow finch scratched its hair and said, "It's okay. I'm frozen and woke up!"
Xiao Di put a piece of animal skin on his body on the yellow finch's body. "I'll cover you. I'm not cold."
After saying that, he smiled slightly, and his teeth looked whiter in the dark, which made the yellow finch's irritable mood calm down. The yellow finch felt that Xiaodi was an angel who came to the world from the sky. Although his appearance was rough and grew up in such a wild mountain village, his smile was really touching. In a metropolis, you may not find the kind of sincere smile that reaches your heart at all.
The yellow finch looked at Xiao Diu and whispered, "Xiao Diu, remember to wake me up at dawn. I'm afraid I'll oversleep."
"I know! Brother Huang Que.
Xiao Di blinked his eyes and lay on the wooden board. The yellow finch had to lie down, open his eyes, and look at the moonlight shining through the wooden window. He was still uneasy. In his opinion, the second uncle Huang Hailin was too persistent. Did he gamble on this with his own life? For so many years, it is the first time that the yellow finch has seen his second uncle like this. There must be something he doesn't know about.
In a daze and thinking too much, the yellow finch finally closed its eyes.
It was about to dawn. At about four o'clock in the morning, the yellow finch was woken up by Xiao Dou. At this time, he also saw that Huang Hailin, Dong Kuiwu, Lao Qi and others were ready. Xiao Diao was carrying the self-made bow and holding an arrow in his hand, which looked heroic, just like a fighter in the ancient battlefield.
Dong Kuiwu held the small iron machete used to kill wolves and cats in his hand. Huang Hailin carried a circle of rope and a machete in his hand, but it was much smaller than Dong Kuiwu's. Lao Qi held a cigarette in his mouth and two bamboo tubes of blood, and could not see any expression on his face, but the yellow finch believed that he must be happy. No, it's not excitement, it's fear.
"Bad boy, why are you up?"
Huang Hailin took a look at the yellow finch and really planned not to let him go.
"Second uncle, second uncle, at least I'm a man. I can't humiliate our old Huang family, can I? Besides, you've gone. If I don't go, what accident will happen to you? I won't feel guilty for the rest of my life?" The yellow finch said softly.
"Sleep well and wait for us to come back!"
Huang Hailin scolded angrily.
"Second uncle, I don't..." The yellow finch became stubborn.
"Are you really not listening to me?"
"I won't listen to you this time!"
"You stinky boy..."
"Uncle, let Brother Huang Que go. There is a little one. It's okay." Xiao Di came out at this time and said something for the yellow finch. After he said, not to mention Huang Hailin, even the yellow finch felt that his fear had eased a lot.
"Bad boy, don't say I didn't remind you, this is not a zoo!" Huang Hailin finally compromised, and the little lose next to him smiled at the yellow finch. The five people gently walked out of the wooden house and went to the mirror pool.
Mr. Cao in the dark did not fall asleep. When everyone was far away, he slowly sat up, lit the dry smoke called 'fire', and smoked crackling.
The mirror pool seems to be more sad than the dawn. There is no calm ripple on the wide pool. From a distance, it looks like a huge black hole, devouring everything in the world. The thatch next to it keeps making a rustling sound, and I don't know if it's a mouse. What else was it? Everyone did not dare to come forward. They threw it in front of them to open the way and strode forward. The yellow finch walked in the middle. Dong Kuiwu finally listened to the strange screams from the jungle not far away, and the yellow finch couldn't help shivering.
"Uncle, it's right here!"
Xiao Di stopped and took the snake blood on the lame seven's hands. "You stay here. I'll come. You can't light the fire here at this time, otherwise, it will be dangerous!"
In this damn place, what Xiaodi said is what he said. Not to mention that he can't light a fire now, that is, when he met a wolf cat in the past, he said that if he could get out of danger by eating a piece of shit, everyone would not hesitate to eat and run away. Don't doubt the feeling of fear occupying the whole body. If you really want to say that I die, it's not much. Well, it can only be said that you have never been deeply afraid of death. In fact, it is really not the most difficult thing to accept in the world.
With the last experience, as soon as they stopped, everyone grabbed the mud on the ground and covered their bodies naked. The exposed part, with only two eyes, looked at Xiao Di doing everything.
Xiao Di first dug a pit on the ground, and then threw some turpentine oil he brought in it. After burning, he quickly put the bamboo tube on it to block the firelight. The yellow mud snake's blood kept melt, and the strong fragrance slowly came again, making the yellow finch's stomach gurgling unconsciously.
After sprinkling the blood of the yellow mud snake into the grass and pool next to him, Xiaodi grabbed a handful of mud to cover the smell of pine resin, and then squatted with the crowd and whispered, "Second uncle, do you want to catch the dragon?"
Huang Hailin nodded and raised his hand to tighten the rope in his hand. The meaning was obvious. What did this thing bring? It's to tie the dragon.
The yellow finch is funny, dragon. If it is really a dragon, it should also be tied with an iron chain, right? Isn't it the same in the movie and the novel? What kind of iron rope mad dragon, what kind of steel rope mad dragon, the rope in front of you, hanging, besides, and the blood-sucking bat, what should I do?
Sure enough, Lao Qi asked, "Xiao Diu, what about the bird?"
Xiao Di seems to have thought about it for a long time, "Let them fight first, and then we'll catch it."
This boy actually knows the essence of mantis catching cicadas and yellow finch. Hearing this, the yellow finch couldn't help but be proud and sighed. In fact, his name is not bad, and the meaning is unpredictable.
Everyone calmed down and waited for the big bat to appear. The sky was not yet, but he could already see a glimmer of light in the eastern sky. Huang Hailin looked at his watch. At 4:40, Dong Kuiwu held a fish iron machete in his hand and never felt nervous now. Although the lame old seven was sorry for his parents. It's not bad to really die here, but if he really let him face it alone, he will probably be able to scare out of his crotch. Time seems to pass slowly, and everyone's hearts are gradually restless. Only Xiaozhuo, biting a thatch in his mouth, staring at the direction of blood, as if he is as confident, the yellow finch can assert that, Of the five people, only he doesn't have a trace of fear. The others, no matter how similar they are on the surface, will betray everything.
The eastern sky finally revealed a large area of fish and white belly. At the moment when the sun shone at dawn, there was a strange cry in the cave at the end of the mirror pool. The big bat that had seen before suddenly rushed out and was still hovering on the surface of the mirror pool. , rushed into the sky, and rushed to the surface of the water. At the moment when he crossed the water, the black claws 'banged', stirred up a large splash.
After hovering for five minutes, the beast calmed down. The yellow finch estimated that it should be tired. This time, it was high and low. He really didn't believe it. Although the beast was perverted, it also needed physical strength.
"Uncle, the beast is coming!" The yellow sparrow whispered, and there was an inexplicable excitement in his heart.
The playful expressions on everyone's faces suddenly disappeared, staring in that direction. The beast put away its wings and stood on the ground, like a huge crow, looking for the strong fragrance of yellow mud snake blood and enjoying it.
After waiting for five or six minutes, the so-called dragon had not yet appeared. Huang Hailin was a little anxious. He moved his hard body, approached Xiao Diu and spoke with his mouth, which means, Xiao Diu, what should I do? Will the dragon appear?
Xiaodi made a gesture that was not in a hurry and continued to stare at the big bat.
In the thatched grass, a lot of yellow mud snake blood was sprinkled, which was widely distributed in an area. Next to the mirror pool, the small drop was even more weighted. When the snake blood in the thatch was slowly eaten up, the big bat went directly to the bamboo tube beside the pool, searched for a while, and wandered around the bamboo tube. The snake blood was Many, the fragrance is also extremely strong, but the bamboo tube is too deep buried in the soil, and the mouth of the bamboo tube is too small for this beast. There is a feeling of a crow drinking water. Can it really learn from the crow and throw a few stones in? The yellow finch doesn't think so. From the situation of this beast wandering around, it can be seen that it does not have such a high IQ.
The big bat gradually became impatient. The black claws kept attacking the soil next to it, but there was still no effect. Finally, it creaked and opened its wings and seemed to be furious to the extreme. At this time, the surface of the mirror pool was suddenly blown up, the closest to the big bat. The so-called 'dragon' suddenly appeared on the surface of the pool, at least seven or eight meters long, with a thick body, black, just jumped out of the surface of the water, rolled up the big bat and threw it into the water.
The beast came so suddenly that everyone was shocked. When he looked at it again, the pool was already quiet. Everyone looked at each other and there was another loud noise. The 'dragon' rushed out of the water, and the big bat actually broke away and snapped a few times on the surface of the water and soared into the sky. , rushed to the sky, kept hovering on it, screaming strangely and furiously, and the water droplets of the body sprinkled on the surface of the pool, just like rain.
Sooner or later, the big bat did not give up at all. He dived down, stopped on the 'dragon' body and bit it fiercely.
The pool rolled over. At first, the big bat was attacked, but now it is a real battle of strength. The 'dragon' rushed out of the pool and dived into the water for a while, and the big bat could only fly up and down, looking for the right time to start attacking, and the fight was very happy.
"That's it, that's it, that's this dragon!" The lame old man was incoherent, pointed to the pool and said with a pale face.
Huang Hailin nodded and said that this thing was a dragon, which was not too much at all, but it was really not a dragon, just like what Xiao Diu said. It didn't have claws, and it's still a dragon.
