Suddenly a slingshot fell out, and Lao Hu subconsciously reached out to pick it up.
I just happened to see that this slingshot was made entirely of pig iron. It had been around for some years, and there were several loops of hemp rope wrapped around the hand. The slingshot rope seemed to be made of four strands of beef tendon, which looked very strong at first glance.
I picked it up first, handed it to him and asked, "Brother Hu, are you still playing with this?"
Lao Hu's expression did not change. He took it and said, "Don't call me Brother Hu. I'm not that young. I just play for fun sometimes. There used to be a lot of birds around here. When it's okay, I'll shoot some birds and sell them for money. If I catch some, they'll be worthless."
Just feed the dogs.”
"Help me hold up the raincloth and cover these memorial tablets," Lao Hu asked me to help.
I grabbed a corner of the raincloth and thought: "Did he hit Yapo with a slingshot? That shouldn't be right... He is also from Tianguangdong Village. The iron slingshot with beef sinew is very powerful at first glance. He hit her on the head with a stone. Is that right?"
If he can kill someone, why would he shoot Yapo?"
After covering it with a fan cloth, Old Hu said: "Young man, kowtow, maybe God Zai Zai will bless you in the future."
The statue of a Taoist priest wearing a hat stood in the small temple in front of me. Maybe it was cracked in some places because of the water soaking last time. I followed Lao Hu and kowtowed three times.
Haven't had time to get up yet.
Lao Hu suddenly pushed me and shouted: "Get down! Back off!"
Snap!
A small stone flew from nowhere and hit the table leg!
The table was moved backwards by the impact. This is a very heavy solid wood table!
If he hits someone on the head this time, it will be fatal!
Lao Hu pushed me and hid behind the small temple. He turned off the flashlight and looked around nervously. I also leaned against the wall.
He said: "This is not for you, it may be for me."
"Hu... Mr. Hu, who hit you with a stone? He almost hit me on the head." I asked breathlessly.
"have no idea."
Lao Hu put the hat he was wearing on my head and whispered: "Slowly reveal your head and go out, and then count silently in your mind, remember that the time should not exceed three seconds."
I immediately shook my head and retorted: "How can that work? I don't know who is outside! If I show my head out? Then beat me to death!"
"No, it's not that exaggerated. It's not a gun. It's easy to miss in the bad light. I need to know where the person is. You trust me."
"What? Did you just think that I hit the old lady with a slingshot?"
I nodded and immediately shook my head.
Lao Hu nodded to me while holding a flashlight.
I took a deep breath and slowly put my head out with his old hat.
Counting to three seconds, I just took my head back, and there was a snap in the darkness!
A pebble hit the red brick of the temple wall! A lot of red brick powder splashed out.
Lao Hu bit the flashlight between his teeth. He touched a small stone and put it on the slingshot, then leaned out.
The flashlight illuminated a dark figure. Lao Hu straightened the slingshot, took aim with one eye, and let go instantly.
I don’t know if I was hit or not. I only saw a black shadow, and I was sure it was a person.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
He immediately hid after shooting the slingshot, just like a kid playing around. Maybe the light problem lowered the accuracy. Two pieces of the red bricks that built the small temple were broken. There were birds in the woods at night, and they were frightened by flapping their wings.
Flying.
Perhaps because they felt that neither party could do anything to the other, the whole process lasted for nearly half an hour and finally calmed down.
"Run away?" I asked quietly, leaning against the wall.
"I don't know, I'll wait and see."
After waiting for more than half an hour, the surroundings were quiet and there was no movement at all. Lao Hu secretly glanced outside.
