Chapter 11 Chapter 2 Spiritual Buffalo

Bingbing screamed loudly, it was too late to turn around.The faces of the people behind him were all purple, and they desperately swung their arms and rushed towards the shore.Immediately, the water splashed into one piece. The people on the shore saw the long black hair rushing towards Bingbing quickly, causing huge waves.The long hair wrapped around Bingbing's paddling arms. Bingbing sank, took a sip of water, and struggled to get out of the water. Before he could yell for help, he was dragged down again.The people on the shore still couldn't see clearly what was under the water, they could only cry loudly and call for help.

People passing by heard the call for help and ran over, but Bingbing never floated up again.Two middle-aged men took off their coats and jumped into the water. They touched the place where Bingbing sank for a long time, but they didn't touch anything heavy.They widened their search, but found nothing.At this time, in the lotus pond, there was no other abnormality except for the water waves made by the two middle-aged men. At this time, the buffalo on the shore spread its four hooves and ran, stopping at one place and calling.Everyone thought it had spotted Bingbing, so they all ran over.The two middle-aged men touched back and forth several times under the buffalo, but there was still no sign of Bingbing.Everyone does not know the meaning of the old buffalo.

Just as the middle-aged man was about to leave, the old buffalo immediately called out more fiercely.Everyone said: "The old buffalo must know something. It had a premonition before the water ghost came out just now, but no one understood what it meant." The two middle-aged men had no choice but to dive into the water to find them.A few more people jumped into the water on the shore, and it would be too late if Bingbing was not rescued. Several people in the water dived and touched for a while, but they still couldn't find Bingbing.The old buffalo is still in a hurry.One of them touched a hard object with his foot at the bottom of the pond, his eyes lit up, and he said, "I know what the old buffalo is talking about!" Everyone was amazed.

The man said: "The old buffalo often drinks water here, and he knows there is a water pile here. Pulling out the water pile will allow the water in the pond to flow away. If there is no water in the pond, can you find Bingbing?" They did what they said, and a few people scraped away the silt at the bottom of the water and pulled up the rotten water piles. A vortex the size of a dining table immediately formed on the water surface, and the water flowed "dororo" from the hidden channel to the downstream paddy fields.The old buffalo finally stopped barking, and it really is a human animal.

The pond was not very deep, and the water quickly drained away, revealing the mud at the bottom.Everyone was dumbfounded!There is still no trace of Bingbing.Is it impossible to be eaten by a water ghost?But there was no thing with long black hair at the bottom of the pool.Except for some silvery silver carps and carp, jumping small fish and shrimps, there is nothing else in the mud.Is it impossible to flow away from the waterway?But the waterway is half a foot high and half a foot wide, and there is no room for a person at all.Everyone lifted up every lotus leaf and looked at it, but there was no sign of Bingbing.

Shan Dae and his wife were distraught and screamed for heaven and earth, but they could never call back their lovely son.Especially Bingbing's mother, who cried until she passed out several times, only to be pinched by the people next to her to save a life that was so breathless.So everyone advised Shan Dae to be stronger, after all women are much weaker and still need Shan Dae's care and comfort. At this time, Shan Dae didn't come to invite grandpa, because Bingbing was already dead, calling grandpa would not bring him back to life. People say that the water ghost took Bingbing away as a substitute, and Bingbing became the new water ghost in the lotus pond, telling the children in the family not to play in the lotus pond, and be careful not to be taken away by the new water ghost as a substitute.According to Grandpa, water ghosts are different from other ghosts. Water ghosts must find a new drowned person as a substitute before they can reincarnate.Some water ghosts couldn't wait, and when they saw a swimming pool passing by, they seized the opportunity and grabbed their feet, dragging desperately to the depths of the water.Water ghosts are as weak as babies on the shore, but they are extremely powerful in the water. Once they are caught, they will have no way out.

Since then, the people who swim in the lotus pond have disappeared, and the women who wash clothes also carry water from the pond to wash at home. The strange thing started from then on. When the women who got up early heard the cry of "beep" from the north bank of the lotus pond when they were carrying water, it was creepy.Some people also said that they heard similar cries when they slept at night, which was very sad and gloomy. After hearing these seemingly false rumors, Shan Dae's daughter-in-law hid at home and cried every day, but she became so skinny in a week that she hardly ever went out.

Some people secretly saw the daughter-in-law Shantae combing her hair in the morning from the window. They said that the daughter-in-law Shantae’s head was as thin as a skull, with a thin layer of withered yellow skin on the bony bones, and her hands were as thin as chicken feet. tip.Tears were still streaming from her eyes, but the tears were turbid yellow and as dirty as muddy water.Most of my hair fell out, and when I combed it, a lot of broken hair curled up in the gaps of the comb.Shan father's daughter-in-law found that someone was peeping at her, and when she looked at this person in a blink of an eye, the person almost peed his pants in fright.Because of excessive tears, her eyes sank into deep pit-like eye sockets, like dried longan placed in the shell of longan.When she looks at you, you feel as if you are immersed in a cold underground well, and your whole body is icy cold!

Suddenly one night, everyone in the village heard the wailing and cries coming from Shan Dae's house, as well as the sound of the furniture colliding in the house.The kind-hearted people nearby got up and knocked on the door of Shan Dae's house.Shan Dae replied in the room: "It's nothing, I'm sorry to disturb you! My daughter-in-law is going to be Bingbing's stand-in!"
