Chapter 31 The Medicine Thrower
Several flashlights and several people were watching.
If the rope is still laid, it means the duck is still walking.
But no one expected that the rope that was tied to the duck neck suddenly began to shake violently, as if it was caught by something underground.
"Pull it out quickly!"
Brother Yu shouted and reached out and pulled the rope out.
Douyazi also helped.
"Damn it! This...why is this so powerful!"
Douyazai directly used his hands, and his face turned red in just ten seconds.
Brother Yu's forehead showed blue veins and he shouted, "Help everyone!"
Everyone present was shocked, and Xiaoxuan also grabbed the rope and pulled it outward.
I held the rope with both hands and said anxiously: "This... is there something underneath this! Why can't I pull it!"
With so many people exerting force, the rope that was not thick was instantly tightened! If it were still stuck on the duck neck, it would be pulled in half.
"etc!"
He suddenly said with his head: "Listen to me, let go slowly... Don't exert force."
Although we were puzzled, we heard it and gradually let go.
It’s strange that when we unload our strength on the other end, we lost our strength on the other end. The rope that had collapsed into a straight line suddenly loosened.
I grabbed the rope with my head and shook it up and down, and took it back little by little.
It took several dozen meters long to put it down, and it took time to collect it. He put the rope on his head and said, "It is probably hanging on the stone. No matter how strong we use it, we can't do it."
"Huh... it's not right... why is it so light?"
The rope was retracted, and everyone present was stunned.
The rope was still there, but now it was empty, and only a duck feather was pulled up.
Where is the echo duck?
Where are the ducks we borrowed?
Douyazi clapped his hands and said loudly: "Damn it! It's over! Our duck was eaten by the weasel!"
Xiaoxuan glared at Douyazai and said, "Did you see the weasel?"
"You still need to see this? You see, there is a hair hanging on the rope. I said it was like a weasel cave before. You don't listen. Now? The duck is gone." Douyazai spread his hands and said.
Brother Yu had feelings for the duck. He immediately lay at the entrance of the cave, bent his fingers and put them in his mouth, and whistled several times. The whistle was loud, hoping that the duck could hear the whistle and crawl out by itself.
"Shh..."
"Don't blow..."
"We were so disturbed just now..."
Uncle Xue pointed to the entrance of Guizai Ridge, which was very close to the hut where Lao Hu lived at night. We were whistling and shouting just now. The noise was too loud, and the hut could be seen light from the hut through the branches. Someone walked towards here with a flashlight, but couldn't see clearly. I wonder if it was Lao Hu, maybe it was.
"Hide quickly." He ordered.
"What about these bricks!" I said, pointing to the bricks that were pried up.
"It's too late and I can't care about so much. Once we are seen, it's hard to explain, hurry up."
The small temple is that big.
Two people hid in the temple and squatted down. Several people hid behind the temple. I hid behind the nearest stone sculpture.
Seeing that there was no place to hide, Douyazi went up the tree directly. He wriggled and climbed up the tree quickly.
No one comes to this ghost place in Guizai Ridge throughout the year, not to mention that it is now, so I never expected someone to come.
The surroundings were instantly quiet.
As the flashlight was getting closer, I could hear my heart pounding, and the crackling sound of people stepping on dry branches in the distance.
Hiding behind the stone sculpture, I took a secret glance outside.
OK... It seems that he is not a forest ranger Lao Hu?
Not the same body shape.
The man wore a black mask with a hat and a very loose black men's sportswear.
The man was about 1.6 meters tall. Because he was tightly wrapped, the light was not very good, so he could only see these.
He stepped on the dead branches and finally stopped twenty meters in front of the Ghost Temple, about ten meters away from me.
There were many old stone statues on the ground here. I saw this man holding up a flashlight and looking around, then sneakily took out a white bottle from his pocket.
Unscrew the lid and scattered some pill-like things around it, then kicked the dead leaves with his feet to cover it up, and finally threw the empty bottle under a tree.
After doing all this, he walked more than ten steps westward and stopped under a tree, where Douyaozi happened to be hidden.
He stopped for a few seconds.
"Pata..."
Suddenly, a crisp sound came.
A pack of four and seven smoke fell from the tree, and it happened to fall under the feet of this man.
The man saw the cigarette box falling from the sky, hurriedly raised the flashlight and looked up!
Douyazi, who was lying on the tree, had a tense face, and stared at each other with big eyes.
Suddenly I saw someone on the tree, and the man turned around and ran away in panic.
"Do it!"
"Stop him!"
Uncle Xue shouted when he found that the situation was not good.
Brother Yu first rushed up from behind the temple. With the speed, Brother Yu waved a punch and hit the man directly on the head!
The man reacted quickly. He took two steps back and could barely avoid Brother Yu's punch, then quickly opened the distance and ran towards the entrance of Guizai Ridge.
"Where to run!"
Li Tiecheng started to chase after him.
The man ran and groped in his sportswear pocket.
He suddenly took out an iron slingshot wrapped in thick hemp ropes and pulled it away.
A snap!
A stone hit Li Tiecheng's head. At such a close distance, he was shot at the head by a slingshot. Li Tiecheng groaned and fell to the ground, his face was covered in blood in an instant.
"Old Li!"
Uncle Xue ran to check Li Tiecheng's injury. Brother Yu might be angry and chased the man and ran out of Guizai Ridge. He shouted twice in a row, but he didn't hear it.
I was also going to chase this person, and my face turned gloomy, waved my hand to stop him and said, "Don't go, everyone will follow my command."
"Junior brother, please carry Lao Li back quickly. There are bleeding bandages in the place where we live, so pay attention to the road."
"Douya, together with Xiaoxuan, cover the hole, pack the tools and pack it, put the bricks in the temple back, and put the mud statues in the original place."
"hurry up."
"Yunfeng, come with me."
"Put your head!"
I said anxiously: "Who was that just now! That person saw us!"
"Don't worry about that, leave it to Wenbin."
I asked me to find something, and soon found the white medicine bottle that the man threw away just now. Because the pills he threw were too scattered, we were afraid that Lao Hu or other people in the village would come over, so we didn't have time to pick them up one by one, so we only picked up two or three white medicine tablets.
Turn off the flashlight, we trotted all the way through the darkness and returned to our place of residence.
It was almost two o'clock in the morning and I didn't meet anyone on the road.
"Bang bang!"
I just put down my bag when I entered the house and hadn't changed my clothes, someone suddenly knocked on our door.
Douyazi was very careful. He first glanced out through the crack in the door, and then opened the door.
"How about Wenbin?" It was Brother Yu who knocked on the door.
Brother Yu wiped his sweat and said, "The man was probably from the village just now. He was familiar with the terrain and was very accurate in shooting the slingshot. If I hadn't blocked it with something, he would have hit it."
"Also, I almost caught the man two times just now, but he ran into the alley and climbed over the wall."
"But...I got this."
As he spoke, Brother Yu took out a handful of hair from his pocket.
It's long hair, black.
But what do I think...it looks like a woman's hair...
