Dreaming of 1988, I have the ability to see ghosts and ghosts

Chapter 17: Xiao Hei Bites 2 Little Guys' Butts

The next day, grandma took Xiaobao and me to Village Chief Du's house early in the morning. A group of people had been waiting there for a long time, and a van arrived soon.

Xiaobao said goodbye to his grandmother and we all got on the bus. Because the road was mostly paved with stones, and some of them were slightly larger, the road was uneven. It took us more than two hours to get there, covering more than 60 kilometers.

When we arrived at Guiyuan Temple, Village Chief Du helped Xiaobao with the relevant formalities and settled Xiaobao down. He also accompanied Xiaobao to have a vegetarian meal in the temple at noon before we left.

When we parted, Xiaobao kept holding my hand and didn't want to let go for a long time. I squatted down and comforted him softly. He listened to me and nodded with tears in his eyes.

On the way back, I was chatting with Village Chief Du, and Li Yuangui was still sitting in the back row with a wooden face. If I hadn't heard him say a few words, I would have felt that this man had lost two of his three souls, or that he was a mute.

When my grandma saw me back, she happily asked me about the situation in the temple.

"That's good now. Jinfang can finally feel at ease." Grandma sighed.

In the evening, Li Jinfang showed up, and I told her about the situation in the temple, as well as Xiaobao's food, clothing, housing and transportation in the temple.

"Jinfang, do you still hate Li Yuangui?" I asked tentatively. If she couldn't resolve the resentment in her heart, she would not be able to go on the journey with peace of mind.

When she heard Li Yuangui's name, black air did not immediately emerge from her head like in the previous times, but she spoke very calmly.

"Forget it. Maybe all this is the sin I committed in my previous life. I am here to pay for it. He may not even know what he has done."

Li Yuangui is now in a state that makes him look like a walking corpse. This is his retribution, I think."

"Thank you so much, Liu Feng. May you live a peaceful life." She looked at me and smiled. She slowly rose into the air before my eyes. Her figure became more and more illusory, and finally turned into a wisp of green smoke and floated into the sky.

I saw a meteor across the sky, leaving a shining white line and then slowly disappearing.

I hope you won’t be so miserable in your next life, I pray silently in my heart.

"Jinfang is gone?" Grandma asked.

I hummed.

After settling Li Xiaobao down and seeing Li Jinfang off, my grandmother and I returned to normal life.

The peaceful days passed quickly, and the school day arrived in the blink of an eye. Due to the education reform, the original five-year primary school system was changed to a six-year system.

Huangjiacun Primary School was listed in the first batch, and naturally, I became a sixth-grade student.

At the beginning of September, the village was busy with the autumn harvest. I no longer took the main road to go to school, but took a shorter path.

Walking on the ridge of the field, passing through the golden rice fields, with occasional breeze blowing, the heavy rice ears swaying left and right, carrying people's joy of the harvest and hope for life.

The autumn heat in the Central Plains is still very hot. In order to avoid the scorching sun at noon, some hardworking people get up early to work before dawn.

They bent over and waved the sickles in their hands. Neat rows of rice fell in their hands. From time to time, they picked up the towels on their shoulders and wiped the sweat from their heads.

The moment people waved their sickles, swarms of grasshoppers spread their wings and fled everywhere, forming a unique landscape.

By October, all the rice in the fields had been harvested. My grandmother still repeatedly confirmed which family's field it was from, and the owner no longer went to pick up the fallen rice ears.

Whenever she had free time, she would drag her hunched body to search carefully in the fields. I would go with her to pick up the fruits in the evening after school or on weekends.

It's November again, and the weather is getting cooler. There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening. There was a lot of fog this morning, and the visibility was only 5 meters.

I still took a shortcut and walked along a small path, then turned onto the main road. My head was already covered with tiny crystal dewdrops, even on my eyelashes.

As soon as I turned onto the main road, I saw a blurry shadow not far ahead. I was walking very fast, but the shadow didn't seem to be in a hurry. Gradually, the distance between me and it got closer and closer.

When we were less than 5 meters apart, he suddenly turned around and gave me a wicked smile. I was too lazy to pay attention to him and kept walking forward, avoiding his gaze.

Because this guy is not very old, only two or three years older than me, he should be from the village, but I don’t know him. At first glance, I can tell that he has dropped out of school and is a gangster.

Influenced by the Hong Kong Young and Dangerous movies of that era, he imitated the gangsters in the movies and dressed in a cocky and nonchalant manner.

I don't know when it evolved into the image of gangsters and bad boys, and how it became so popular among contemporary young people and everyone is vying to imitate it.

Suddenly he blew a sharp whistle, and then I caught a glimpse from the corner of my eye that he was pulling his pants down.

"Ah!" I screamed in fear, quickly covered my eyes and turned around to run back. Oh my god, is this a psychopath? Or is he a bad boy with exhibitionism?

I was very nervous. What if this person wanted to do something to me? It would be difficult for me to escape with my small body. I prayed silently.

"Ah!" I didn't run far before I heard the man screaming. I didn't dare to pay attention to him and continued to run forward.

"Ah, ah! There's a snake, there's a snake!" The man screamed again.

Hearing this, I slowed down my pace, turned around and looked at the man. I saw that he was holding up his pants with both hands, running forward desperately, shouting as he ran.

"Ah, ah! Help, help! The snake bit my butt!"

I looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black figure chasing the man like a sword.

I relaxed all of a sudden. My Xiao Hei came to save me. It always protects me secretly. Whenever I am in danger, it always appears at the first time, as if it has always been by my side.

Gradually, I developed an inexplicable dependence on it. I would always search for it unconsciously, but I didn’t want others to know of its existence.

Because it was getting bigger and bigger, I was afraid that someone would find it and do something bad to it. Oh! I was too conflicted.

I walked back to the school with a smile on my face. After a long while, the man's shouting voice could no longer be heard, and the black figure rushed out from the field by the roadside.

"Xiao Hei, thank you!" I whispered to Xiao Hei!

It opened its little black eyes and looked at me.

"This is the busy farming season, and there are many people in the fields. Go back to the river and don't let anyone find you!"

It nodded at me again and disappeared into the field with a whoosh.

When I arrived at school, I did come early today and was the first one to enter the classroom.

"Haha! This morning I ran into Zhang Sanlaizi from our team. He was holding up his pants and said that he was bitten on the butt by a snake. Haha, how could he be bitten on the butt? Shouldn't snakes bite feet or legs? Ha, ha, ha!"

I heard the voice of Zhang Ming from Team 3. He was chatting with another classmate.

"Really? That's so weird! Ha, ha, ha!" followed by another round of laughter.

I remained calm and smiled. People like this deserve to be taught this kind of lesson.
