My purpose was to find people, so I could only try my best to restrain them. Some old men and women were holding bowls and shaking, obviously frightened.
When I came out of a house, a brother looked around, pulled down his mask and asked me in a low voice: "Brother, we have searched more than 20 people. Brother Tian said that we should pay special attention to those who raise birds at home. I will take care of him for my brother."
Let me ask, what kind of bird is this? Myna, parrot?"
"No, it may be called a big-headed badger bird in their local dialect. I don't know what it looks like. Please put on a mask quickly so that no one can see it."
"Woof! Woof woof!"
A native dog yelled at us crazily on the street. Immediately, a boy ran out, raised his hand and hit the dog's head several times with a steel pipe. Then the big native dog snorted a few times and lay motionless.
"This house is so dilapidated, no one must live in it. I guess it doesn't even have electricity."
"Brother Tian, what did you say? You have to find any unoccupied houses and kick them away."
Two big feet kicked open the door, and a group of people rushed into the abandoned old house with flashlights.
There were old pots and broken bowls, broken mats and broken tables and chairs. The house was very dusty, and the walls were covered with spider webs. No one had lived in it for who knows how many years, and it was lifeless.
At this moment, the small walkie-talkie in my pocket rang.
"How's the progress going there?"
I looked around, pressed the small intercom and replied: "We have searched dozens of houses, and now we are leading someone in a dilapidated house. Where are you?"
"There is a well in my courtyard. I just asked someone to check it, but there is no harvest yet."
"Go on, keep in touch. I have a feeling that I am getting closer to that person."
"Okay, keep in touch."
After setting up the walkie-talkie, I was just about to go out, when suddenly out of the corner of my eye, I saw a broken chair that seemed to be moving.
"Wait a minute."
"Did you hear anything?"
"No, is there a mouse? Brother, you are too nervous."
I took a photo with my flashlight.
This chair is an old-fashioned rocking chair made of bamboo. Most elderly people like to lie on it while rocking and reading newspapers.
I stared at it for two minutes. There was no movement in the broken rocking chair. It was very quiet.
Just as I turned back and took a step, I suddenly heard another "squeak" sound, like a rocking chair moving.
I turned around sharply and shined a flashlight on it.
"Go and have a look."
The brother closest to me nodded, held up a flashlight, and approached with the steel pipe.
When he got there, he kicked over the broken rocking chair and turned around and said, "There's nothing there, maybe it's a mouse."
"do not move..."
"Liu Zi...listen to me, just stand there and don't move."
"What's wrong? Is there something on my head?"
"Damn it, don't be scary." The man didn't dare to move.
I swallowed and turned pale.
All of us could see it clearly.
I don’t know when a huge green-skinned toad lay on the brother’s head.
The big toad's cheeks bulged and retracted, and a small piece of rat tail was exposed from the corner of its mouth.
