Chapter 7 Chapter 6: Ghost Baby's Revenge

I don't know why, every time I see the eyes of that Orion's wife, I feel chills in my heart.I have seen women who have been ravaged by devils, their eyes are empty and lifeless, as if the hope and support in their bones have been pulled out of their bones. And although the eyes of the woman in front of her are also gloomy, they are not lifeless, as if in the depths of her eyes, there is something quietly spying on you.If there is any similar feeling, it is like when I was not in the army, I suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and found the green eyes of my black cat on the kang head quietly staring at me by the pillow, and when I woke up, it closed immediately The eyes seemed to be in dreamland all the time.

When I pretend to fall asleep again and secretly leave a slit in my eyes, I will find that the black cat quietly opens its eyes again and continues to peep at me secretly in the dark.And it's not just this woman who gives me this feeling, the girl in her arms gives me this feeling even more strongly. I can only understand that they have a strong sense of distrust for the devil's military uniform we are wearing now. But at least what she said this time shows that her ears are still listening to every move outside, instead of a mindless walking dead, but after saying "ghosts come out in the afternoon", she has become that kind of The blank expression, no longer speaking, made us feel a chill rushing up from the soles of our feet after hearing it, and we were speechless for a while after looking at each other.It was eerily quiet all around.

The Japanese woman also looked at us blankly. The fat Japanese devil who was captured couldn't understand Chinese, and was not afraid if he didn't understand. Stop here." We Qiqi was taken aback, and when we realized it, Li Ergou had already run dozens of steps away, and Wang Qiang fished out a can of canned food from his back pocket, throwing a grenade With a wave of his hand, he made an arc in the air and landed on the back of the running Li Ergou's head. Li Ergou staggered a few steps, a dog gnawed mud on the snow, and we quickly surrounded him. Li Ergou lay motionless in the snow, Li Cunzhuang kicked him, and said worriedly: "Qiangzi, you are so strong, you must have been crushed to death." Wang Qiang shook his head: "It's nothing, I have enough " Then he put the barrel of the gun against the middle of the two devils' buttocks, and said, "Even if he is dead, if I shoot this gun down, the dead man can still jump up and down."

Li Ergou immediately jumped up and down, screaming: "Excuse me, sir, I just fainted from fright. I'm not dead, I'm not dead." Wang Qiang chased after him, beat and kicked: "I've been Knowing that it’s not a good thing for you to run away, why are you hitting the wall and trying to cover us so that you can escape? Are you thinking of running back and bringing the devils to catch us? Don’t dream, let’s see your strong man smash your melon with a single shot flesh." Before we could talk, Wang Qiang had already put a gun on Li Ergou's head and was about to pull the trigger. Li Ergou's legs softened and he fell to his knees and cried, "Dad, dad, dear dad, I'm wronged, I'm wronged, I want that I can blind all my fathers and turn around, and transfer the officers back to the imperial army, no, the devils went to receive the reward, who will accompany you on this wrong road! Heaven and earth conscience, my family has a seventy-year-old mother, and there are... "

Li Cunzhuang picked up Wang Qiang's barrel, and with a bang, the bullet obliquely grazed the back of Li Ergou's head and shot into the ground, leaving a scorched mark on the back of Li Ergou's hair. Gou Wensheng fell to the ground, his limbs twitched, and a smell of urine overflowed. Wang Qiang said dissatisfiedly: "Why, this kind of scourge should be killed as soon as possible." I touched Li Ergou's nose and nodded: "Old Li is right, what these two devils said is also reasonable, forgive him if he can't figure out such a thing." Big news is coming. Now that he is a prisoner of war, we can’t just kill him.”

On the ground, Li Ergou closed his eyes and let out a faint sigh: "Am I dead? Everyone, I have always done good deeds and accumulated virtues in the mortal world, being upright and selfless..." Li Cunzhuang kicked him: "Doing good deeds and accumulating virtues. The honest and selfless ones mean that you are strong, grandpa, and you have no part in it. Wake up, you have a big life, and you are not dead yet." Li Ergou got up overjoyed and kowtowed again and again: "Thank you, sir, for your life, thank you, sir, for your life." Li Cunzhuang scolded, "You deserve what you deserve if you die, Hu Ziqiang is right, you kid actually wants to escape back and continue to be a dog to the Japanese devils, It should be killed."

Li Ergou swears to the sky: "If you want to bring devils to arrest the officers, I, Li Ergou, was not raised by my parents. I wish I could not meet the ancestors of the fierce gods for eight lifetimes. How could it be..." Wang Qiang and Li Cunzhuang were angry together Said: "What, are we so unfriendly?" Li Ergou was so frightened that he quickly changed his words: "No, no, I mean, I want to run for other reasons." Wang Gang and I asked together: "Other reasons, what reasons?" Li Ergou realized that he had slipped his mouth, and looked at us speechlessly.

Wang Qiang immediately drew his gun again: "I said it's useless to keep this scourge, everyone get out of the way." Li Ergou wailed: "I said, I said, I, I ran away because there were ghosts in the team." Have you ever seen a person's expression of real fear, not the kind of pretended fear, but the chill that really comes from the heart.Li Ergou's current expression is like a hungry mouse, sneaking out of the hole, looking around, knowing but not seeing the vicious cat that is quietly hiding in a certain corner, ready to pounce on him at any time. It is certain that what scares him so much is not Wang Qiang standing in front of him, but something unknown hidden among us.Because Li Ergou's expression was so surprising, Wang Qiang was also a little startled by him, and put down his gun for a while, looking at me.

The four of us in the company looked at each other at the same time. The sky was terribly dark due to the wind and snow. Everyone's faces were a little blurred. We could see that everyone's expressions were a little creepy. Maybe, like me, we all thought of the night before yesterday. There was an extra number of people when signing up in the cave, and all the weird things started from then. Li Ergou said that there are ghosts in us, could it mean that there is an extra thing in the team that can't be seen?I was still thinking, Wang Gang has already started counting: "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven... plus me, plus the child, nine people, that's right."

Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief, and looked down at Li Ergou trembling even more. Wang Qiang went up and kicked him, cursing, "Say, what do you mean?" Wang Qiang pointed at the Japanese devil, "He?" Li Ergou bowed his head and did not speak.Wang Qiang pointed at the Japanese woman again: "Her? Is there a problem?" Li Ergou still bowed his head and did not speak. Wang Qiang became furious, and scolded angrily: "Playing tricks with your master Qiang, if you dare to shake the morale of the army, I will kill you now." Then he drew his gun, and Li Cunzhuang pushed Wang Qiang away: "It's so rare, you can also learn to shake the morale of the army. Words? Be careful, the company commander came back and picked you up." Wang Qiang said dissatisfiedly: "Who are you targeting, Li Youzi? If I keep bluffing him again, I'm going to make a fuss. Let's see what kind of sword he's playing."

Li Cunzhuang shook his head: "I don't think his expression is fake. What's more, when we first encountered the strange thing, these two devils hadn't seen us yet, so they couldn't make it up." Wang Qiang wanted to open his mouth, but Wang Gang pulled him away. A cigarette was handed to Li Ergou: "Come on, come on, smoke a cigarette first." Li Ergou took it tremblingly, Wang Qiang muttered dissatisfiedly.Li Cunzhuang smiled and said to Li Ergou: "It's ruined!" I kicked Wang Qiang's ankle: "It's okay, if you have something to say, now everyone is a grasshopper on the same line. If you don't say it clearly, you will be soaked in boiling water." A litter of rats will die, if you tell them, everyone can have something to worry about." Li Ergou looked up and saw that even the eight girls were staring at him, so scared that he immediately lowered his head and dared not speak.Li Cunzhuang stood up and walked to my side, whispering in my ear: "There is something wrong, these two devils seem to be really afraid of someone among us." I shivered, and asked Li Cunzhuang in a low voice: "You mean Huziqiang?" Li Cunzhuang shook his head: "I don't think so. He is afraid of Huziqiang because he is obviously afraid, but now he is secretly afraid. I think everyone is like this. Staring, he wouldn't dare to say it in eight lifetimes. Or you tell everyone to turn their heads away from him?" I nodded, and when Li Cunzhuang asked Li Ergou again, I pulled Wang Gang and ordered everyone to turn their heads back. Finally, I also turned my head, and vaguely heard Li Ergou whispered the word "footprint", and then There was no sound, and he turned around quickly. It was obvious that I was not the only one who was talking, and Wang Gang had already started to check the footprints. I wondered if something had been following us, and the extra footprints were accidentally discovered by Li Ergou?I don't know if it has something to do with the hissing sound I heard, but although the footprints were covered up by the new snow, I couldn't see where there were more traces. I looked up in confusion and found that Li Cunzhuang's face changed . Li Cunzhuang nodded heavily: "Yes, footprints, why didn't I think of that." Just as I was about to ask him, Li Cunzhuang raised his gun and pointed it at a person in the team. Wang Qiang roared angrily: "Li Youzi, you're not finished, are you? Are you deliberately confronting me? Threatening people with a gun again? You put the gun down, will you let it go?" Li Cunzhuang pointed the gun at the Chinese woman holding the child. I was also taken aback, and quickly grabbed Li Cunzhuang's arm: "Old Li, why did you shoot again when you have something to say?" A drop of water fell on my hand On the next day, I took a closer look and found that Li Cunzhuang's bald forehead was steaming. I don't know if it was sweat or snowflakes evaporated by the sudden rise in body temperature. The Chinese woman held her baby girl and looked at Li Cunzhuang coldly. Wang Gang grabbed Wang Qiang who was about to pounce on him, and his voice was a little impatient: "Brother Li, why do you always have trouble with these girls?" Li Cunzhuang held the gun in his hand Trembling: "Footprints, do you see anything wrong with those footprints?" Wang Gang looked at the footprints left behind again: "Eight pairs, that's right, no more, no less, nothing wrong." I also nodded, and Li Cunzhuang yelled like crazy: "Nine pairs, it should be nine pairs." Wang Qiang He laughed loudly: "Li Youzi, are you crazy? Of course there are nine people, but this girl has been held by her mother all the time. Where can there be footprints?" Li Cunzhuang's gun muzzle trembled even more, staring at the mother and daughter under the gun muzzle without even daring to blink: "Hu Ziqiang, your fucking head is in the crotch of your pants? Think about it, since we entered the woodshed , Have you ever seen this girl’s feet on the ground? Who knows if she has any footprints?” I let go of the hand on Li Cunzhuang's arm in astonishment, and looked at the baby girl in the woman's arms. She lowered her head and played with the black ball as if she hadn't heard the conversation outside.Could it be that the abnormality of this girl I thought I was wrong about was not my illusion? A chill that was colder than the wind and snow pierced into my military uniform in an instant. The meaning of Li Cunzhuang's words could not be more obvious: Those with footprints are people, and those without footprints are ghosts. The baby clings to her tightly. Apart from doting on the child, there is another possibility. This girl is a ghost baby.A woman who doesn't let the child's feet touch the ground is covering up the fact that the ghost baby has no footprints. Li Cunzhuang slowly raised the muzzle of his gun, pointed at the girl who was concentrating on playing with the black ball, and shouted to the woman: "Put her down, put her on the ground, and let us see if she has any footprints." The woman hugged like she hadn't heard The girl was motionless, but the girl was finally startled, and raised her head to look at us in a daze. Maybe it was preconceived after listening to Li Cunzhuang's words, the more I looked at this girl's eyes, the colder it became, and the two black and watery eyes seemed to be able to see directly into my brain through my eyes.I suddenly had a feeling: Li Cunzhuang was right, this girl was abnormal. Kill people and set fire to the golden belt, build bridges and pave roads without bones, and it is even said that once the success is complete, all bones will be withered.There are battlefield rules on the battlefield, women's benevolence is not a matter of sex, and two armies confronting each other is like harvesting crops. Whoever cuts more heads will be the general, but it is said that the blood of soldiers is stained on their hands after death. The military salary itself is money for hard work, and there is limited guilt, but for ordinary people, any soldier who kills will have retribution. This is not just a question of conscience condemnation, but a real, tangible and visible retribution.Ordinary people can't fight with guns while they are alive, and they are not afraid of guns when they are dead. However, there are not many legends about ghosts taking their lives in the army, but stories of ghost babies' revenge have been circulating in private. Wang Gang suddenly kicked the squatting Li Ergou in the face, kicking Li Ergou lying on the snow ground, and asked in a deep voice: "Damn it, did you kill this girl?" Li Ergou Buried her head in the snowdrift, she wailed and said: "It was the devils who did it, not my business, not my business, it was the devils who stabbed her to death with knives, and I was also confused by the blow. Think about it. She, she, she is a dead child, she was picked to death by the devil more than ten days ago, and I buried it behind the temple with my own hands." My head buzzed, and I quickly raised my gun. Wang Gang also raised his gun and aimed at the girl, and said in a low voice, "Brother Quan, this is a big trouble. Do you believe what Li Ergou said?" I looked at the tense Li Cunzhuang, was silent for a moment, sighed, and asked Wang Gang, "Do you believe Li Cunzhuang's words?" girls, but no one dared to shoot. Legends about the ghost boy's revenge have always been popular in the army. The most popular story is about the melee of the Beiyang Army. The revolution is to see if there is a donkey stick in the back of the head, so military discipline is extremely corrupt, and it happens from time to time to kill civilians to claim rewards for meritorious service.This killing is not one or two, because if you kill one or two in a village, the rest of the villagers can see it, and sooner or later they will be stabbed out. The official will never spare you. Even if the official does not take the lives of the people, he cannot tolerate such a waste of bullets. Whoever does it will lose his head.In such a situation where he wanted to do immoral things but was afraid of losing his head, something even more immoral happened, that is, massacring the village. In the whole village, as long as there are adult men, no one will be left alive, and the corpses are all chips for receiving rewards. As for the women and children, these easily exposed corpses are dug deep pits and buried cleanly on the spot.There is no way for an official to force the head of a dead person to speak clearly: Hey, are you a soldier or a farmer when you are alive?What's more, some officials themselves also hope that the soldiers under their hands will kill more heads so that they can receive rewards from bigger officials. Even if the bodies of those women and children are dug out by wild dogs in the future, it is also the opposing army who has done this. There will never be a day when the truth will surface for such a detrimental act. In this case, the story of Guiwazi's revenge finally broke out.No one can remember who was the first person to tell the story, but the story spread in the army at a speed like fire, and it roughly goes like this: After a war, a certain army cooking squad went to the river to fetch water for cooking in the evening, and some children were laughing and playing across the river.Since the river was very wide and the sky was dark at dusk, no one cared about the trivial matter of how there were children near the battlefield.The cooking team got water and went back to wash and steam the rice. After the meal was finished, the soldier who had been starving for a whole day devoured hungrily. Suddenly, a soldier groaned and clutched his throat and gurgled. At the moment when less gas was needed, the military doctor arrived.At first glance, the military doctor was also a fierce man. Without further ado, he took a knife and cut a hole in the throat of the soldier who was about to choke to death. As a result, when the throat hole was opened, something fell to the ground with a thud. Guess what?It wasn't a bone, it wasn't a fish card, it was a silver bell, a little bell hanging from a child's bracelet and anklet.The bell was taken out, and the soldier choked to death. After the army buried him, he hated the cooking team to death: he dared to leave this thing in the meal, deliberately joking about the lives of the men, and almost mutinied. Force the cooking class to clarify this matter. Even if the cooking class complained about being wronged, the cook would have the benefit of not starving to death. If he had the money to put this silver bell on his body, even if he hit it, it wouldn't fall into the rice grains.The soldiers who took the lead in making trouble made it clear: "Don't pretend, before the war, in the village where everyone slaughtered together, it was your cooking team who buried the bodies of women and children. How can you not skin the heads of the dead and scoop up the jewelry from the corpses? It’s already wrong for the silver bell to choke to death in the rice, what’s even more wrong is that you took care of the things you picked up so carelessly, and even dropped them in the rice, let the higher-ups find out, and don’t take everyone together? You say you deserve to die? Damn?" When he said this, a cook suddenly remembered: "Yes, I have seen this bell before, it was set on a silver bracelet, and this silver bracelet was indeed picked off by me on the dead child, but before the war I’ve already sold it as a pawn, and I haven’t got the money to redeem it.” While talking, he took out a pawn ticket from his pocket, which clearly stated that it had been pawned for almost half a month. The soldiers were all stunned, and this was a strange thing.At this moment, the cooking squad leader suddenly thought of the group of children who were playing on the other side of the river while washing rice, and after careful questioning, none of the soldiers in the cooking squad saw the faces of those children. When the cooking team told the story to the mutinous soldiers, the soldiers were skeptical, but in the end, they didn't dare to kill all the people in the cooking team. Who would cook if they were killed?Hundreds of people can't start cooking by themselves from now on, can they?So I yelled for a while, and the matter was left alone. The weird thing happened in the evening of the second day.When the cooking team went to the river to wash rice and get water again, the group of children appeared on the other side of the river to play again. The cooking team leader hurriedly asked people in the barracks to come and see. He didn't dare to shoot casually, so he sent two good swimmers to swim to the opposite bank to see what happened. The two people who went down swam into the river, and suddenly disappeared at the same time. Under the eyes of everyone, they sank their heads into the river (read mo), and then did not come up again.Everyone hurriedly sent two more people with good water skills to rescue them, but when they got to the river, the two people disappeared again. The children on the opposite side were still laughing and playing there, but the soldiers on this side were in a panic, who would dare to go into the water again?So some soldiers pulled the bolts of their guns and shouted to the other side of the river, trying to force the children on the other side to swim over to see what happened, but the children on the other side ignored them and continued to play with their own. Shots fired. At this moment, the children on the opposite side finally stopped playing, and stared blankly at the soldier over here, and the soldier with good eyes shouted in panic: "Something is wrong, something is wrong, those children's eyes are bleeding, we must not let them come over. " It was already too late, and the child on the opposite side slowly waded into the river arm in arm. On the surface of the water, his head was floating slowly towards the river, getting closer and closer.You can see it clearly when you get close. There are no eyeballs in the eye sockets of these children, and blood is bleeding from black holes. At this time, the group of children just swam to the center of the river, before the bullets arrived, all of their heads suddenly sank into the river, and there was no sound. It was completely dark, and the river flowed quietly without even a bubble, as if nothing had happened.A group of soldiers trembled by the river with their guns in hand. Those who were brave enough went downstream to find a boat. They lit torches and went to the place where children were playing opposite to search carefully: there were no footprints. Standing on the wet soil by the river, the children played on the soil for a long time, but there were no footprints—this is why Li Cunzhuang was particularly concerned about whether the girl had any footprints! But me, Wang Gang, Wang Qiang brothers, and Li Youzi, we can all swear that we have never done any immoral things such as torturing and killing civilians. Logically, we will never invite ghost babies to retaliate. I guess the bad luck will be on the few prisoners of war we are keeping.We wiped out the entire devil army, leaving only this second devil and that Japanese soldier.If that army of devils had done something unacceptable to heaven and earth at that time-the fact seems that they have indeed done it.There is really an explanation for the weird things that happened last night. It was Guiwazi who came to take revenge, but we messed it up. The remaining two people will be spared - Li Ergou and that devil. What's even more unfortunate is that after we killed the devil, we put on the devil's military uniform and walked with the remaining two guys. Now in the eyes of the devil, we are no different from the devil, and we have become the target of their revenge .It's really bad luck.This is not my random guess, based on the legendary story of the ghost baby's revenge, I can only infer this. It is said that in that incident back then, a group of soldiers returned to the barracks in a state of agitation, and they still wanted to eat anyway.It is estimated that the cooking team saw that the brothers in the camp were restless, so they spent a lot of money and added ingredients. In every pot of rice, a piece of delicious meat was steamed.But after eating, the soldiers still have to beat the cooking squad, why is that? Because at the end of the meal, some soldiers ate teeth, not one or two, but dozens of them in total, and everyone would be angry.The pork head meat is delicious, I have never seen it cooked like this, and I was already nervous, so I rebelled again and wanted to beat the cooking team. The monitor of the cooking class was surprised: Who the hell added meat?Who the hell added meat?The officer above picks you to death, I wish I could boil the bran in clear water for you so that you can clean it, and add meat to it, deliberately bully people, don't you take the cooking team as your duty?After two confrontations, a stubborn soldier took out his tooth and handed it to the cooking squad leader: "Look clearly, isn't this a tooth from a pig's head?" The cooking squad leader was shocked when he saw it: "My mother, these are not pig teeth, they are clearly human teeth." After finding all the teeth, thirty-two teeth fit into a set of human teeth. Now the whole barracks are fried.After a long time, what kind of meat do you eat?The answer came out quickly. The soldier who was choked to death by the silver bell yesterday had his body dug out from the soil. His whole body was stripped to nothing but a skeleton, and even the teeth in his mouth were pried out. Where did the teeth and flesh go?The soldiers in the entire battalion vomited one after another. Although this battalion is full of masters who do bad things and kill people without blinking an eye, this kind of thing that exceeds the limit of tolerance is still unbearable.At this time, someone remembered that the soldier who was choked to death was the one who first proposed to massacre the village. During the process of massacring the village, he also ruined a girl. A silver bracelet with a small bell on it. In this regard, the rumor that Guiwazi came to revenge spread in the camp at the speed of sparks igniting gasoline.That night, countless soldiers deserted and fled in groups, but at dawn, there were quite a few of them, and they all gathered at the gate of the barracks.It turned out that they had been walking around the wall all night, and none of them could get away. What's more, the bodies of the four soldiers who disappeared in the middle of the river were all swollen by the river water, and now they were all hung in the barracks. On the branch of the tree at the door, the eyeballs were also gouged out, and the empty eye sockets were fixed on the barracks. No one can escape, there is always a price to pay for what you do.People are ruthless as mothers, ghosts are ruthless as dolls, the younger the child, the heavier the resentment after death, because it is not easy for a person to come to this world, just like a flower, you pick it off before it blooms and put it in a bottle Add water to it, and it has to survive the blooming and falling leaves before it is willing to go.The same is true for children, and what is consumed is the anger of leaving the mortal world without resentment. This tone is now falling on the heads of this battalion of unscrupulous soldiers. No matter how they were abused at the beginning, they will be punished as they were, and they will have to intensify.Dolls have no moral constraints, and being a ghost is even more tossing and sad. The entire barracks are closely monitored from washing rice to cooking to serving the table, lest they eat something unclean again.But that's it, something happened. The source of the matter was that the people in the cooking squad were beaten to death and refused to go to the river. Eight soldiers went to wash rice and fetch water, but only two came back. While fetching water from the river, the duckweed that had just floated away from the surface of the river suddenly found that there were gloomy children's faces under the river quietly staring at the people on the river. None of the people whose shoes got wet could leave the river, and they were all pulled down by the hands of children stretching out from the river. Only these two people who were a little farther away from the river came back alive.The entire military camp screamed from hunger overnight, and organized itself early the next morning, deciding to dig out the bodies of the women and children buried under the massacred village and set aside their ashes. The village was built on a sloping hill, and there was a gap between the top and the bottom. The corpses were buried on the slope. When they were dug out, they found out that they were dug close to the water source. Soon after the soil was loosened, there was a landslide, and all the corpses slid down and floated away along the water source. I don't know where to go.A group of menacing bandit soldiers looked dumbfounded at the bottomless pothole that kept gushing water. It was not so cheap to run away again, so I ran out in all directions, and finally returned to the barracks. The corpses of the six soldiers who disappeared while fetching water were swollen by the river water, hung on the branches of the trees at the entrance of the barracks, and their eyes were gouged out again. , staring at the barracks with empty eye sockets. At that time, the soldiers were also in a hurry. No matter who was sorry for anyone, they would all be dead. They decided to go all out with Guiwazi: First, the brigade drove to the river to fetch water with live ammunition, and cleaned all the tanks and pans in the barracks one after another. Filled with water and made long-term plans, but things happened faster underneath, completely catching them off guard. When the sentry was on guard at night, they heard the sound of gurgling from the place where the water was stored in the cooking team. The sentry boldly went over and saw that in the dark, beside the water tank, a group of monkey-like figures were lying on the edge of the water tank, facing Drinking water, he suddenly raised his head when he heard the footsteps of the sentry, and his white teeth gleamed in the darkness. The sentry fired without hesitation while pulling the trigger, and the sleeping soldiers rushed to the room one after another, lighting the room with torches. There was no one there, but the water in the bucket was obviously less than half.Now people are even more panicked, no one dares to drink the remaining water, who knows how people will react if they drink the water that this ghost has drunk. So a large group of people had to be sent to fetch water from the river, and when the water was fetched, they had to stand guard to watch the reservoir. People were tossing like windmills. At night, they were so sleepy that they couldn't get up even when there was thunder, but at dawn, some people really couldn't get up. The neck was swollen and tall—a small palm print, and it seemed that he was suffocated to death because he was so scared that the donkeys in the camp neighed all morning, and then fell asleep again at night.At dawn, some soldiers' necks were touched by Guiwazi, and several of them were suffocated to death. The soldiers went completely crazy. They dared not sleep, dare not eat, even took a washbasin to fetch water to wash their faces. In the washbasin, there would be a bloody face looking at you, and dead bodies would not dare to eat. Buried, they were all piled up in the middle of the barracks, and everyone was afraid that something would happen if they didn't see the buried soil.In the hot weather, the corpses rotted quickly, and the barracks was full of stench. No one dared to leave alone, and the smell was only next to each other. This time, there is no need for ghosts to come to the door. Soon the plague broke out, and the first to fall was the military doctor. One after another, half-dead soldiers fell down, their faces were yellow like wax figures, and they walked like skeletons. There was urine and feces everywhere, and finally a soldier couldn't bear it and chewed the muzzle of the gun into his mouth and pulled the trigger.Suicide is also contagious, one after another, and at the end of the night, someone whispers in sleep: The devil is here.All the half-asleep soldiers jumped up and started shooting, regardless of whether they would kill the living or not. After firing the guns, they continued to hold up the corpses. Every morning when they woke up, there would be a few fewer living people.It wasn't ghost touch, they were all shot and killed by their companions. In ten or so days, there were only a few of the hundred and ten people left, and the rest was a huge pile of dead people in the middle of the barracks.The matter finally alarmed the higher authorities, and sent troops to investigate, but it is said that all the troops who entered the barracks never came out again, and the result was nothing. I can speak in such detail, but there is one thing involved here.I heard from Wang Gang that before I joined the company last year, Wang Gang and Wang Qiang were the first to be in the company.After Li Cunzhuang came, the greatest pleasure for Wang Gang and Wang Qiang was listening to him tell stories every day, until one day he told the story of the ghost baby’s revenge. Everyone wanted to have a good time after listening to it, but when Li Cunzhuang was telling it, he looked around and was suspicious. Leng Wang Qiang laughed angrily, and scolded Li Cunzhuang: "Old Li, you ran to tell a story and made so many tricks. Could it be that you escaped from that barracks at that time?" Li Cunzhuang jumped up furiously: "Huziqiang, you fucking use your mouth to eat and your butthole to talk? You can talk nonsense. I think your wife was pretty good in the village at that time!" Wang Qiang's expression changed immediately, and the two The two started to do it together, almost fired a gun, and looked at each other from then on, it was always unpleasant, and the beam was formed at that time.Wang Gang also felt that Li Cunzhuang was overreacting, so he didn't help him. From then on, Li Cunzhuang didn't tell them anything, and he kept it in his stomach. He was still like this when I went. But at that time, I really didn't take Wang Gang's ghost baby's revenge story seriously. Although he told it in a ghostly way, if you think about it carefully, it means that you have done something wrong with your heart and produced a dark ghost, and then it was exaggerated by the legend.There must be troops in Tucun, there were in the past, there will be in the future, and there must be a few soldiers who were frightened to death after doing bad things.When the news came out, the military officials felt that this story was very good for strict military discipline and preventing the phenomenon of fake meritorious service. This is my more practical idea, but finally one day, I realized that many things are not so practical.A few months ago when our battalion was stationed in a private house at the foot of Zijin Mountain in Nanjing, I woke up in the middle of the night and just yawned when I suddenly found the figure of a child squatting beside the sleeping Li Cunzhuang under the moonlight. Under the moonlight, I could see it clearly, it was clearly the back of a child, I suddenly thought of Li Cunzhuang's abnormal behavior when he talked about the ghost baby's revenge, and my hairs stood on end: Could it be that this old soldier is talking about everything real?Was Wang Qiang right? He really escaped from that barracks?He brought something that shouldn't be in our barracks? Before I finished thinking, the moonlight moved away from the figure of the child. It seemed to feel that I was looking at it, and looked back at me suddenly. In the darkness, only a pair of watery eyes could be seen showing endless sadness.I screamed in fright, and hurriedly went to touch the gun, and the people around me woke up, and the figure slid out of the window, as fast as a shadow, which is not something a human can do at all. When everyone got up and lit the torches, there was nothing left, and there were no footprints around Li Cunzhuang. Everyone thought it was my nightmare and complained one after another. Only Li Cunzhuang remained silent after listening to what I saw. He hugged his legs tightly and buried his head between his knees.I saw him trembling, but he never said a word. The next morning, the sentinel found nut shells like chestnuts at the gate of the barracks, so I guessed that there might indeed be a black shadow that I saw last night, but the black shadow was only caused by monkeys in the mountains. I was the only one who didn’t believe it, because Those sad eyes were so human. Maybe Li Cunzhuang didn't believe it, but he didn't say anything after he quarreled with Wang Qiang, maybe because I was the only one who saw that shadow, Li Cunzhuang has always been closer to me since then.To be honest, we all looked down on him a bit, and always felt that this person was too slick and a bit supernatural.But after all, he is a brother who fights in the trenches, and when it comes to critical moments, he can still rely on his life. Unexpectedly, after such a long time, at this fatal moment, we actually encountered the revenge of the ghost baby, and the target of revenge actually involved us who were innocent.I thought about so many things, but in reality it was just a moment. Looking at Li Cunzhuang's forehead with bulging veins, and looking at the mother and daughter who stared at us silently, our gun-holding hands trembled.You know, if this shot goes down, if we are suspicious, then we will shoot and kill civilians! Suddenly there was a scream, which startled us. Turning around, Wang Qiang kicked Li Ergou on the shoulder, and cursed: "Fart, you two devils have no good intentions, and you deliberately picked us? If you say that the team There is a ghost, it can only be you! If you don’t tell me, I’d forget. I remember that when you were wrestling in the temple, you ran as light as a rush. ?” I was stunned for a moment, and immediately recalled that I had indeed heard Wang Qiang say such a thing. At that time, Liu Xiaogang also said that Li Ergou was a low-spirited person, but judging from this strange incident, the words of these two devils really cannot be easily believed. . Li Cunzhuang's eyes also glanced over, and Li Ergou yelled strangely: "You are wronged, you are wronged, sir, what are you talking about, she, she was indeed buried with my own hands, right behind the temple."地里，我，我可以带你们去看……” 王强上去就是两耳光，骂道：“各跑当你爷爷是糨糊泡出来的？跟你回去？跟你回去送给鬼子咬？越听越觉得你各跑不是东西，处处算计你爷爷。”李二苟捂着脸呜呜地哭，还是王刚一句话说了明白：“别闹了，让那女娃下地，走几步看看脚印不就什么都知道了？” 王强过去一把推开了李存壮的枪，真心实意地对那女人说：“嫂子，你也看到了，乱得不行，你就把娃子放下地，走几步，还娃个清白，好吧，算我求你了。” 女人冷冷地不说话，反而把女娃往怀里裹得更紧。
