Chapter 4 Chapter 4

But it is said that in the city of Beijing, south of Taoranting, there is a depression called Nanxia depression.During the period, the plants are luxuriant and the aquatic plants grow. It is desolate during the day and gloomy at night.No matter whether it is day or night, people try to walk around the depression as much as possible. No matter what time they pass by the Nanxia depression, they always feel unspeakable discomfort.In a word, Nanxiawa is not clean. In 1894, a terrifying sound suddenly came out from Nanxiawa: quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quak Woke up from sleep, and listened carefully, but there was no movement.

it's wired!People were restless all night, but until dawn, nothing strange happened.People have been busy all day, and by the second night, they have forgotten the horrible screams.But in the middle of the night, that terrifying cry suddenly sounded again: quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack...the strange sound screamed three times in a row and then returned to silence . What is going to happen? At dawn the next day, people had been busy for another day, but nothing strange happened.But in the middle of the night, the strange voice came again: 呱 呱 呱 呱 嘎 嘎 可 可, 呱 呱 呱 呱 嘎 嘎 可, 呱 呱 呱 嘎 嘎 …… …… ... Wait until dawn, the North Korean side has come to the report: report, Japanese ships in the Yellow Sea of ​​the Yellow Sea On the way, suddenly launched an attack on the Beiyang Navy, and the entire Beiyang Navy was wiped out.

On this occasion, people suddenly realized.It turns out that the strange ghost screaming in Nanxiawa told people about the Sino-Japanese War. After the Sino-Japanese War of 1884-1895, the ghost screams in Nanxiawa stopped, and no movement was heard for more than 20 years.But the horrific screams during those three nights made the residents of Beijing uneasy. No one knew what terrible thing was hiding in the Nanxia depression, so people named it the Great Old Demon. In the blink of an eye, it was 1916, twenty-two years had passed since the terrifying cry of the grand old monster.Just when people were about to completely forget the Nanxiawa ghost screaming incident, the big old demon came back again.

Quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack... The big old demon yelled again in Nanxiawa, and everyone who heard it was terrified. This time, something terrible is going to happen again Son? 嘎 呱 呱 ， 呱 呱 呱 呱 呱 …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… …… ” Quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack... The big old demon kept screaming, the more he screamed, the more joyful he was. The old demon returned to Nanxiawa, and Tao Ranting heard the ghost cry again.The news quickly spread throughout the city of Beijing. In an instant, people from all directions flocked to Nanxiawa, wanting to see for themselves what the big old monster looks like.There were too many people who came to see the excitement, and the small vendors seized the opportunity and rushed to do business, resulting in a depression for vendors.Even the merchants were gathered together, so the media shouted in unison, demanding that the police station dispatch to arrest the old demon.

To this end, the Jingshi Police Department held an important business meeting, and Police Chief Wu Bingxiang delivered a speech in person.He said: The public is the father of the police, and the mother of the police. If the parents are in trouble, can a son stand by and watch?cannot!Now I order that the monster hunting operation will start immediately, enter Nanxiawa immediately, and capture the big old monster alive. If you don't win a complete victory, you will never withdraw your troops! The policemen lined up in a long line rushed to Nanxiawa majesticly, spread out and began to search.The common people stood around, a sea of ​​people, watching with bated breath.While searching, a policeman found a weird gray ball of hair, poked it with a gun, and heard a puff, a silver-gray light flashed like lightning, and a big blood hole appeared on the back of the policeman's hand .

Wow, it hurts me to death... The policeman screamed. When the other policemen heard the screams, they immediately shouted in unison, and rushed over with their guns.But seeing the gray fluffy ball bumping towards the policeman, there were screams in Nanxiawa, and all the policemen fell to the ground with blood streaming down their faces. More policemen rushed up and beat around the fur ball.Suddenly there was a strange scream: 呱 呱 呱 呱 呱 …… …… ... I saw that the hair ball suddenly became tall, there were two thin long legs below, and a pair of terrible glamorous eyes on it. With a sharp mouth like a cone, he kept pecking at the policemen.

A policeman had a deep blood hole pecked on his shoulder, and fell to the ground in pain. Amidst the screams, he suddenly saw the monster's two thin legs in front of him.He gritted his teeth, grabbed those two slender legs suddenly, called your uncle, and pushed it hard, and there was a loud bang, and the monster was thrown to the ground.Seeing this, the other policemen rushed up shouting, and without any explanation, threw themselves on the monster and held it down firmly. The old demon was finally captured alive by the brave Beijing police. Looking closely at what it was, one could see that it was covered in gray hairs. The body shrunk three feet thick and stretched more than five feet. It turned out to be a huge strange bird.

What kind of bird has such a huge body and such a terrible cry? The police took photos of the strange bird, published it in a newspaper, and escorted it to Sanbeizi Garden, which is now the Beijing Zoo.Then, the police department issued a sincere invitation to the scientific community: Please, scientists, biologists, can you tell us, what kind of bird is this big old monster?Tell us, and it will clear the doubts in people's minds. However, people in the scientific community kept their mouths shut as if they had made an agreement, and refused to say a word.To this day, academic circles still say nothing about it.

The silence of the scholars left us with the confusion of the great old demon that has continued since then.
