I shivered and didn't dare to act rashly. I calmed down and observed in secret.
The woman was standing behind me, so I could only see her head.
To be exact, only her face could be seen. Her face was dark and blue, and her appearance was incomplete. It was as if someone had erased some parts of a portrait sketch. After that, I didn't dare to look at her anymore, afraid that my gaze would anger her.
I first turned off the flashlight, then quietly pulled out the dagger, ready to defend myself at any time.
The surroundings were eerily silent. At this moment, the sound of footsteps stepping on dead leaves rang out in his ears.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! His voice was filled with vigilance. This guy seemed to be moving carefully. He quickly stood behind me. I vaguely felt a strand of hair fall on my neck.
I finally couldn't take it anymore. I thought to myself that no matter if he was a human or a ghost, he definitely didn't have good intentions by sneaking around in the middle of the night. I suddenly turned around and swung my knife.
He did not expect that not only did he miss, but he also fell into the water with a plop because he used too much force.
Fortunately, the depth of the pool didn't drown me. I splashed in the water for a while before coming up with the bucket.
I looked up again and saw that the figure by the water hadn't left. He was looking at me with a green gaze. It was really scary.
I quickly touched the flashlight on my waist, but this thing had long been lost. I was in a very sorry state. The black shadow on the shore looked at my comical appearance and actually laughed.
Hehehe! Hehehe! It was really not much better than a ghost crying.
But when I heard this laughter, I was no longer afraid. I recognized her.
She's a crazy woman from our village. No one seemed to know anything about this madman. I knew that she came from somewhere else and had been wandering around here since a long time ago. Sometimes he begged for food, sometimes he picked up trash to eat. He had actually been fair and fat for more than ten years and lived healthily until now.
My impression of her is that she has a keen sense of smell for liveliness. No matter where there was a temple fair or an opera, or if there was a red and white banquet, she could basically be seen. She was like a ghost on the plains.
Under the moonlight, I saw that she was wearing colorful clothes. It didn't fit him, and looked like a scarecrow used to scare sparrows. She was used to being away from the secular world for a long time. Her eyes were as bright as a cat. His night vision must be better than ordinary people.
He didn't expect to see her here at the party tonight. I couldn't help but feel fear for my actions just now. No matter what, she was still a human. If he stabbed her, he really didn't know what to do.
I heard that lunatics are not afraid of anything but dogs, so I wanted to use dogs to scare her. He touched his pocket and scolded her,
"What are you laughing at? I have a dog with me. If you don't leave, I'll let the dog bite you!”
He pretended to take out his pocket.
My lie was so ridiculous that even I felt that it was a little ridiculous. I didn't expect it to really scare her. When she heard the word 'dog', she immediately ran to the shore in fear.
I can't stay by the water's edge forever. Follow me to the ridge with a bucket of water.
Under the dim moonlight, the crazy woman walked to a pile of fallen leaves in the dark ditch, then buried the fallen leaves on her body and fell asleep.
Seeing this situation, I immediately felt that something was wrong.
We will be staying here for a long time in the next few nights. If we let this crazy woman stay here, she might ruin our plans.
To be safe, I decided to drive her away.
However, this woman has a hard life. It wasn't easy for her to find a place to settle down in this pile of fallen leaves. I can't force her to leave. He remembered that he had seen her use money to buy things before. It seemed that she still knew how to spend money, so he decided to give her some money as compensation. He shouted at her,
"Hey, get up. I have something for you!”
This woman could understand what others were saying.
When she heard that she wanted to give her something, she got up from the fallen leaves and walked over.
"I'll give you some money, but you can't stay here anymore, okay?”
I told her. He started to give her money.
I remember that I had 20 yuan in my pocket, but I couldn't find it after rummaging through it for a long time.
This woman was waiting beside me. Seeing that I was dawdling, she couldn't wait any longer and reached out to take my money.
I took a few steps back and quickly swatted her hand away. In the end, he had no choice but to give her the 50 yuan. This is almost my weekly salary.
I thought she was going to leave after getting the money. But he didn't expect it! She actually returned to her original position, covered herself with the leaves, and fell asleep again.
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I thought to myself, so you only heard half of what I said just now.
But then again, to reason with a lunatic, unless I'm crazy too.
In the middle of the night in the wilderness, meeting this madman really made her feel a little nervous. For a moment, she did not know what to do.
At this moment, I found a lighter in my pocket and immediately thought of a solution.
This woman is sleeping here because there are leaves here. As long as I burn these leaves, she will leave naturally.
Just do it! However, to prevent the fire from burning her, I started from a distance.
The fire immediately lit up the surroundings. The crazy woman was immediately woken up by the fire and got up from the leaves.
Only then did I see her clearly. His hair was messy and covered in firewood, and his face was black. He looked like a savage. With such a face, she was wearing a bright pink autumn dress. The contrast was a little scary and strange.。
I really underestimated this woman. When she saw the fire, her reaction was not to leave, but to put out the fire. He really didn't know if he was stupid or strong. Seeing that there was a bucket beside me, he wanted to grab it to put out the fire. Of course, I wouldn't let her succeed. I quickly stopped her. When the woman saw that not only did she light the fire, but she also didn't let her put out the fire, she was so angry that she kicked me. However, it didn't hurt very much, so I didn't lower myself to her level.
During this period of time, the few bonfires had already formed a fire dragon and spread towards the woman's sleeping place. Madman also knew that the fire couldn't be extinguished, so he muttered a few words that seemed to be scolding him. Then, he went to the other side of the fire wall and pulled at the leaves, looking for something.
I didn't pay too much attention to it, but then a terrifying scene happened.
Through the fire wall, I could vaguely see another woman standing up from the leaves. I couldn't see what she looked like, but I saw that she was wearing white clothes. Her hair was so long that it hung on the ground. She stood with the crazy woman and looked at me in a daze.
The dead leaves made a creaking sound as they burned, and the woman's hair continued to grow.
I was shocked and quickly went around the firewall to see what was going on. But by the time I went around the other side of the wall of fire, the woman had already crossed the ditch and was heading southwest. In the darkness, she was carrying a bulging white snakeskin bag. There was a long black thing hanging from the bag, which looked like hair.
I said to myself:
"It's no big deal. This woman likes to be lively. She might have stolen some props from a troupe.”
However, I also know that the probability of this happening is extremely low.
