"I asked you to move, but you are moving. There is a toad on your head. Don't move. I will knock it off for you."
After whispering, the man held up the steel pipe and slowly leaned over.
Shining a flashlight on it, I saw that the toad's eyes were glowing green, there was an uneaten mouse tail at the corner of its mouth, and its cheeks were shrinking. It was obviously not a toy, but a living thing.
"Lower your head!"
The man yelled and struck him with a round stick.
Liu Zi immediately lowered his head in cooperation.
Just listen to Bang!
Liu Zi was lying on the ground, rolling his eyes, his head was covered with blood, and he twitched twice.
"Fuck...go, go, go, I didn't hit you."
"Where!"
"Jumping into the corner!"
Immediately, seven or eight people ran to the corner with steel pipes.
Aim at a place and start hitting with crackling sounds.
"stop!"
"I'm holding on!"
In the corner, a green-skinned toad had its head held down by a steel pipe. When I looked at it, I saw that it was big, as big as an adult man's hand, and its skin was green. In addition, it was completely different from the three-eyed toad with a tin nose.
I saw this brother pressing the steel pipe against the toad's head and exerting all his strength.
It was like stepping on a caterpillar, it burst into pulp with a sizzling sound, and squeezed out a lot of yellowish-brown semi-solid liquid, much like eating yellow sauce from a pancake brush.
"Fuck, you touched my feet. What the hell is this? It's so fucking disgusting."
"Come and see Liu Zi!"
Seeing how badly the person was injured, I said, "You can't even hit him accurately, and you're still stunned? Send him to the hospital quickly."
The person who did it looked ashamed and said that he couldn't see clearly because it was too dark in the room.
There was a man in the team who spoke very little. He was in his thirties. He shook his head and looked at me and said, "You don't need to command us. Brother Tian has told us that if there is an accident tonight and he is seriously injured, he cannot go to the hospital."
.”
"Carry Liu Zi away, don't touch him, let him take a break."
Watching the people being carried away, I shook my head helplessly.
By the way, I turned to look at the dead frog in the corner, and suddenly remembered something.
Spring has just begun this season, and it is warmer in the south than in the north. Frogs and toads may not need to hibernate, but if they want to live, they must have water, right?
I turned on the flashlight and looked around.
This old house is located at the east end of the village, and the Guizailing pond is at the west end of the village. Could it be said that this big toad jumped from the east end of the village to the west end of the village?
No...it doesn't make sense...
I walked out of the house, patted the dust on my head, turned on the flashlight, and started walking around the house.
really.
In a hidden corner, I found a small iron gate, which was rusty and locked with a bicycle lock. It was only over one meter high, like a dog hole.
I asked someone to use a steel pipe to break the door open.
Pushing open the door and bending down to pass through the rusty iron gate, what appeared in front of us was an earthen yard.
There is a dwarf pear tree planted in the yard. Not far to the left of the pear tree, there is a pond-like thing built, covered with wooden boards, with more than a dozen bricks pressed on top of the wooden boards, and there is a smell around it.
"Go, be careful, go over and take a look."
After taking away the brick, the two of them worked together to push away the wooden board.
When I shine a flashlight on it, it sparkles.
This is an abandoned pool. Because the water has not been changed for a long time, the water is hairy and smelly.
The water was too turbid and I couldn't see the bottom, so I found a stick and poked it into the pool. I touched the bottom. It wasn't very deep, maybe about 1.8 meters.
"What... is there something?"
You can feel something in the pool when you hold the stick in your hand.
"Come here." I waved to someone.
"What are you doing?"
I said you jump in and fish it out to see what it is. The water is not very deep.
This brother looked at me up and down and said, "You are taller than me, and I can't drown you. Why don't you get down? This water is fucking stinkers than a piss bucket."
I pointed at this kid and said, "You don't listen to me, do you?"
"Oh, Tian Boutou."
I took out my walkie-talkie and shouted: "Your people don't listen to my orders. They won't do the work I ask them to do."
"Who? Which one?"
Hearing Tian Sanjiu's voice, this brother opened his mouth wide and kept making mouth shapes to me, but he didn't make any sound.
"Oh, Boss Tian, I'm not here for the moment. I'll ask for your name later and let you know. I'll contact you if anything happens."
I put away the walkie-talkie and shook my head at this person.
He pointed at me, as if to say, wait for me, kid.
Lifting the mask up, he turned it up reluctantly and jumped into the smelly pool.
With the flashlight in hand, the man held his nose with one hand, took two deep breaths, and plunged into it.
A string of bubbles appeared on the surface of the water.
In less than five seconds, the man came up with a splash.
Immediately holding on to the edge of the pool, he made a "vomiting sound" and started retching.
I said, brother, you are holding on, I feel something at the bottom of the pool, I just touched it with a stick.
"Ah, ha..."
"Pooh!"
The brother spat twice, looked at me with evil intentions, took two deep breaths, and then got into the water.
This time the time was relatively long, about thirty or forty seconds later, with a crash, he came up and shouted: "Tank... big tank!"
"Under the pool! There are two water tanks!"
"Covered with a stone slab!"
"It stinks so damn much, it might just be a cesspit!"
"Water tank?"
He said it was a cesspit. At that time, there were no flush toilets in rural areas. There were quite a few such things. Nowadays, people pay great attention to hygiene when developing new rural areas, so they should be gone.
Just dig a hole, bury a large pottery jar in the ground, and put two stone slabs on it, and it becomes a toilet.
Why do I say it's unhygienic? Because when you squat down to use the toilet, you will 100% hear a gurgling sound. It's useless to lift it up, because it will splash on your butt | buttocks.
After a lot of effort, I fished the two tanks out of the pool. I held my nose and leaned over to take a look.
The round stone slab that was originally covered has been removed, and now it is still covered with two or three layers of transparent raincloth. The eaves of the tank are tied tightly with two circles of thick iron wire. The iron wires are severely rusted.
I used a steel pipe to poke a hole in the raincloth. I held up my flashlight and swung it inside. Anyone who was curious came over to take a look.
"what is that?"
Is it...a dead toad?
You see clearly, it’s a dead frog and a dead toad!
Turning over the belly, layer upon layer! They were densely packed in the vat and had deteriorated for a long time.
There was also half a tank of viscous, soy sauce-like liquid.
Extremely nauseating, nauseating.
People with trypophobia will definitely not be able to watch this scene.
Some people ate too much at night and vomited everything. I suppressed the nausea and opened another tank.
This is relatively better.
There was a pair of human feet soaked inside.
Two feet, floating on a soy sauce-like liquid, with five toes clearly visible.
They looked like pig's trotters, which had been soaked and turned white and swollen.
The brother who went into the water to fish out the jar turned pale and said loudly: "It's disgusting. Who the hell did this! This is a jar of toads and human feet. I won't be able to eat this week."
"Stop talking, cover it quickly, it's really smelly."
I quickly walked aside and told Tian Sanjiu about the new discoveries here.
"Well...it seems that we have found his lair."
"I'm going to go there now and I'll be there in about twenty minutes. Don't waste time now."
