"Okay then, Xiao Sun, you, you go and try to start it!"

Village Chief Huang instructed Xiao Sun to start the water pump, but his eyes never left me.

"Okay, okay!" Xiao Sun was in a daze watching Xiao Huang and I coming down from the embankment.

I didn’t understand what Xiao Huang and I had just experienced up there, and suddenly I heard the village chief’s instructions and woke up with a start.

He walked to the water pump and started the machine quickly. The sound sounded very normal, without the roar of an old man pulling a cart that we heard when we first arrived.

Hearing the sound of water rushing from the top of the dam, Village Chief Huang was surprised and ran out to see.

"That's great, Aunt Xu, we can really pump water now, thank you so much!"

Village Chief Huang finally felt relieved at this moment, and his position as village chief could finally be kept.

He was very happy and danced with joy, completely losing the calmness of a country man.

When he saw me, he even wanted to come over and hug me. He stretched out his hands, then turned around and hugged Xiao Huang who was standing next to him, and said to me.

"Liu Feng, right? Little girl, you are amazing. How did you do it? Is there really a ghost?"

"Did a person named Huang Chuanxi die here?" I asked.

"Yes, yes. Last summer, Huang Chuanxi from the second team died here. This kid was too naughty. He lost his life here."

The village chief listened to me and nodded in agreement. He told us that the cause of Huang Chuanxi's death was the same as I imagined.

Last summer, Huang Chuanxi was farming at home. One evening when the weather was hot, more than a dozen children from the village came to the base station to play in the water, including Huang Chuanxi, who was the oldest among the group of children.

Everyone was playing in the water, and some were even using nets to catch fish.

While playing, Huang Chuanxi suddenly had an idea. He looked at the water outlet and said to his friends:

"Believe it or not, I can block that water pipe."

"Are you afraid? Brother Chuanxi!"

"If you block it, the water will be gone, so forget it!"

"If we can really block it, the adults will scold us."

Several friends were talking at once and expressing their opinions, but Huang Chuanxi refused to listen and walked towards the water outlet as if possessed.

One of his friends stopped him and said, "Brother Chuanxi, don't go. Don't hurt yourself."

"It's okay!" He shook off his friend's hand, walked straight to the water outlet, and pressed his chest against the outlet.

As expected, he was sucked tightly to the mouth of the tube. His friends rushed forward and tried to pull him out, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't pull him out.

There was no way out, the children panicked and went to call for help from the adults. By the time Xiao Huang, Xiao Sun and others arrived, they cut off the power supply to the water pump and took Huang Chuanxi down, but he was no longer breathing.

This is why Xiao Huang was so scared when he heard Huang Chuanxi's name.

He and Xiao Sun were the first to arrive at the scene at that time. Huang Chuanxi's death was indeed tragic.

I explained to the village chief that Huang Chuanxi's ghost blocking the pipe was not intentional, and told them the real situation.

"Then, Liu Feng, how did you get him down?"

Village Chief Huang expressed his doubts.

"The secret cannot be revealed. I am the heir of the Xu family. Of course I can bring him down. Grandma just didn't go up to see it. Otherwise, she could have solved it without me coming."

I was being mysterious and didn't want to explain too much to them.

To be honest, even if I were asked to explain, I wouldn't know how to say it, and they might not believe me even if I did.

"Well, Village Chief Huang, now that the matter has been resolved, Feng'er and I will go back first."

Seeing that I didn't want to explain more, grandma changed the subject.

"Okay, in that case, Xiao Huang, you should take Grandma Xu and Liu Feng back."

Village Chief Huang ordered.

"By the way, Aunt Xu, I'll give you the Feng Hong matter when I'm done tomorrow. Thank you so much to you and Liu Feng today."

Village Chief Huang looked at me with a look of suspicion and a bit of admiration.

"Aunt Xu, Liu Feng is so talented at such a young age. It seems that your Xu family has a successor."

"Yes, Feng'er was born to be a horse-foot, but she doesn't like this line of work. I'll let her do what she wants and let her choose for herself in the future."

Grandma looked at me with satisfaction.

I didn't say anything, just looked at my grandma with a smile and blinked my eyes.

"I, I'm sending it alone, and I'm a little scared."

At this time Xiao Huang said timidly.

"What are you afraid of, kid? Young people all have three Yang Fires on their bodies, and ghosts will avoid them when they see them."

Village chief Huang looked at Xiao Huang's bitter face and laughed.

"Yes, Brother Xiao Huang, ordinary ghosts will not harm people at will."

I also said to Brother Xiao Huang with a smile.

"Then Xiao Huang and I will go together!" Xiao Sun looked at Xiao Huang's expression and stepped forward to help.

"Well, the two of you come back and take good care of the pump house to make sure everything is safe and pump the water as quickly as possible so that the villagers can grow the seedlings."

Village Chief Huang agreed. Looking at Xiao Sun's expression, I guess that after what happened just now, Xiao Sun might not want to stay here alone at night.

In this way, Xiao Huang and Xiao Sun drove the tractor to take me and my grandma back home.

"Feng'er, how did you get Huang Chuanxi away just now? Did Xiao Hei help you?"

After Xiao Huang and Xiao Sun left, grandma asked me while washing up.

"How do you know?" I was very surprised.

"I knew he was always by your side," Grandma said to herself.

"Grandma, what did you say?"

My grandmother's voice was very soft, and I didn't hear it clearly. I only heard the last few words, "by your side." My curiosity was immediately piqued.

"No, nothing. You should go to bed early. You have to go to school tomorrow."

Grandma didn't continue to respond to me.

"Grandma, what are you talking about? You're always keeping me in suspense." I said coquettishly.

"You will know it later. The secret cannot be revealed. You'd better study hard now!" Grandma said with a smile again.

Forget it, I won't ask anymore. I know my grandma's character. If she doesn't want to talk about something, no matter what method I use, I can't get her to talk about it.

I washed up in a bad mood, climbed onto the bed and fell asleep.

In my dream, I saw a black snake and a spotted snake. They were the poisonous snakes called nine-hooped snakes in this area, the same kind that Wang Fang and I encountered last time when we went to the river near the school.

The two snakes were fighting each other. As a bystander, I felt that the black snake was my Xiao Hei.

And the black snake was obviously just defending itself. It didn't seem to want to hurt the flower snake, but the flower snake was ruthless in its attack. No, it was ruthless in its words.

It bit the black snake, and my heart ached as well, as if it was biting me. I really wanted to push them away, but I was powerless.

My heart was filled with helplessness and pain. I felt that my power was so small, my thoughts became confused, and anxiety and despair were intertwined, as if covered by a dark cloud.

The next morning, when I woke up, I had a splitting headache and a dull pain in my chest. I felt a little better when I felt the warm breath emanating from the beads on my chest.

I vaguely felt that maybe Xiao Hei was in some danger, which was why I had this dream, but I had no idea. Forget it, I'll go to Heilongtan after school and call Xiao Hei out to ask him.

When my grandma saw that I looked bad, she asked me if I had a nightmare. I nodded and said yes, and told her not to worry, that I would be fine after a while.
