Bamboo branch girl

Several men carried Zhuji back to the elders as if they were prey.

Many people gathered at the temporary refuge in the village, and they dug a big pit for the fat uncle to rest here.After setting up a tombstone, the elders began to pray for the fat uncle who had just died.

The villagers were in a state of grief.

Fat Uncle loved to help people during his lifetime. He led everyone to go fishing to make a fortune, and contributed money and strength to the construction of the village.He had never done anything bad in his life, but now he died because of cutting a bamboo.

At the moment of his death, the fat man was still holding the ax tightly. He knew that the people in the village were still waiting for those bamboos to build a place to live.The fat uncle died for no reason, and he had no relatives to see him to the end. He refused to close his eyes when he was buried.

"Village head! Village head! We've caught the culprit!" A bald young man in the lead threw Zhuji to the ground, dragged her to the fat uncle's grave, and kicked her hard, "Damn! The murderer , Kneel down and kowtow to Big Brother Fat!”

Zhuji was in great pain from the fall, her hands and feet were paralyzed and she couldn't move. Looking at the grave, she was extremely puzzled.

What's in front of this little mound?Why kneel down?

"This child... isn't it just... Could it be a mistake?" Xiao Douding's mother was also there, and she remembered that the girl had played with the little fat man and Xiao Douding.If it was really a monster, she would have to take Xiao Douding far away, and quickly separate the relationship, so as to avoid all suspicions.

The bald young man let out a pooh: "If the spell works, can it be wrong?"

"Village chief, come and judge!" Someone suggested to call the village chief.

The village head was still teaching Huang in his room, trying to persuade him to put more effort into predicting and not to make any more mistakes.Otherwise, the future fate of the village will be destroyed in his hands.

However, Huang didn't listen to the village chief's words, he was thinking about Zhuji's safety at the moment, and stared blankly at the place on his arm that was healed by Zhuji.Even the whip wound that fell not long ago was healed.

When Huang heard the word "Jingli", he knew that everyone must have brought Zhuji back!Huang begged the village chief not to hurt Zhuji, but the village chief even tied him up with a rope to prevent him from going out to make trouble.

Except for the ability to predict, Huang has no power like ordinary children, and when he is punished, he can't resist at all.

As soon as the village chief took a step out of the house, he saw Xiaodouding's mother pointing at Zhuji and saying, "This...isn't this one who often comes to play with Huang...what the hell! It's actually a monster!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Douding's mother covered Xiao Douding's mouth, which was about to speak out, and carried him to another place.In the face of a catastrophe, the most important thing is to save your own child first, and you must not let everyone know that Xiao Douding is also related to Zhu Ji.

"What about Huang?"

"Huang was locked up by the old man, and he can't be allowed to run around in the current situation." The village head was also very tired. Facing everyone's questioning and suspicion about Huang, he had tried his best to cover Huang.

No matter who it is, as long as it kills someone, it should be punished as it should be.There is only one life, if you don't cherish other people's lives, others have no obligation to cherish your life.Even if the other party is a child, as the village head, he must give everyone an explanation, so that he can serve as a warning to others.

The muscular man who went with him was an apprentice brought out by the fat uncle. His master was killed by a monster for no reason, and he was the most angry one.

"What are you talking about, the son bestowed by God? Not only did he not predict the disaster, but he also played with monsters. I think he foresaw it and deliberately didn't tell us, so that the monsters would harm us." The muscular man picked up the ax and was about to attack Zhu Ji cut it off: "Damn it! The dead monster made us homeless!"

"I'm sorry... Please don't kill me..." Facing the sharp axe, at a critical moment, Zhuji regained a little strength, but she was only able to speak.

The young Zhuji still didn't know that she had committed a heinous crime, and she didn't understand why everyone's reaction would be so violent after killing someone.Perhaps by replacing the killed person with Huang, she could feel the anger of the villagers.

The moment Zhuji raised her head completely, the villagers recognized her appearance.

"That child, isn't it!"

"Yes, I remember! It's a sacrifice that Lord God wants to catch!"

It was precisely because it was a sacrifice that the gods wanted to capture alive that the villagers became more and more nervous.According to the past practice, children who escaped from the hands of the gods must bring infinite curses to the village!If we explain the successive disasters from this direction, the villagers will naturally hate this bamboo demon who looks harmless but is actually a broom star.

In this way, more and more villagers threw things at Zhuji.Pots, eggs, vegetables... all smashed over!In their hearts, the Bamboo Demon is the criminal and the murderer!

It is undeniable that Zhuji killed someone.Facing the ferocious human, she was terrified, and when she could move a little, she kept moving back, back, to the back of the fat uncle's grave: "Please don't kill me...I...I know I was wrong , next time... next time will never..."

Even if they knew they were wrong, they would not come back to life. No one would pay attention to Zhu Ji's begging for mercy, and the anger of the villagers still could not be appeased.

"Never again! Never again! Can there be a next time?! Go to hell!"

People get great satisfaction from bullying the weak.The villagers who have been overwhelmed by the heavy disaster for many days have finally been released and vented.

"I won't...I won't..." Zhuji curled up, holding her head tremblingly.Vicious people, with vicious words, insulted her to the point where she was utterly abused.

Facing the helpless child, a person with a little compassion stood up: "Even if it is a demon, it is still a child. Is this too much?"

"A life pays for a life. Can people survive if they say sorry? Monsters are best at charming people's hearts. Don't listen to her!" The muscular man shouted, pulling his throat.

"Listen to the old man!" The elder, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up. Leaning on crutches, he walked slowly in front of Bamboo Girl, and asked someone to light a torch, "The thing that the Bamboo Demon fears most is fire, light it now." Let her show her original shape with a few fires."

It rained heavily for several days, and there was almost no dry grass. It was not easy to burn a monster with such a small fire.The elder knew that he hadn't considered it well, and after everyone's unanimous approval, he decided to let the muscular man take an ax to chop off her head, which can be regarded as giving the muscular man a chance to avenge the fat uncle.

Of course, the muscular man is happy to eliminate evil for the people, eliminate violence and bring peace to the people, because his ideal is to be a hero who fights against monsters.He raised the ax in his hand and slowly approached Zhuji.

Zhuji thought she was going to die, so she covered her eyes and didn't want to watch.

Suddenly, a highly recognizable voice sounded from the crowd: "Well, I heard a loud voice just now, is it... something happened?"

The muscular man put down the ax in his hand, and turned around to see who it was.

"Who is he?"

"It's from the next door village. I've seen him a few times."

A tall and strong uncle is particularly conspicuous among the villagers. He is not young but has the unique demeanor and charm of a man. His appearance is extraordinary and his eyes are like pools.Presumably he was a suave young man when he was young.

The single women among the villagers were so excited when they saw this man, they forgot about dealing with monsters.

"Don't get me wrong, because our village was also flooded, so we also escaped here to take refuge." The uncle quickly explained to show that he was a good person.

The elder stroked his beard and nodded: "It's just right to come, tell your village that this little bamboo demon caused us to be like this."

"What's the little demon capable of? At most, he knows a few sorcerers. It's really not worth fighting with everyone." The uncle rubbed his palms with a smile, "To tell the truth, I have learned some Taoist techniques to drive away evil spirits, and I just want to try it. Can you... let me eliminate harm for the people and be a hero for a while?"

Sounds like it's awesome.

The elder hesitated, it was not appropriate to see blood today, so he said that he would burn the bamboo demon with fire, but in the end he had to use an ax in desperation.Since exorcism can be used, it is not impossible to try it.

"Since you are the monster about to be killed and you are also the victim, let me vent your anger." The elder agreed, and stepped aside to watch the uncle's performance.

Seeing Zhuji's pitiful look, the uncle's heart twitched, and a sense of pity came slowly.What a beautiful child, just being abused by those people like this, are they still human! ?

Zhuji didn't remember the uncle very much, he looked very kind, and it wasn't that scary in comparison, so her body didn't move back reflexively.

The uncle squatted down, glanced back at the expressions of the crowd behind him, then patted his chest, took a deep breath, picked up Zhuji with lightning speed, and ran down the mountain desperately.

The villagers didn't react for a while, and looked at each other for a while.

The air was silent, and when the elder tapped his cane, the scene instantly exploded.Several men volunteered to chase after him, but the elder stopped him.The uncle ran very fast, and he disappeared in two or three strokes. Blindly chasing after him would only waste energy.

Don't chase after the poor, the one who suffers is yourself.No one can predict what the next disaster will be, and the consequences of losing the labor force are unimaginable.Letting the tiger go back to the mountain is a hidden danger, and even the elders have no way to do it, so it's just a mistake to know the wrong person!

"Hey, I'm going! Run quickly! Whoa, whoa, whoa!!"

Roaring can increase explosive power, the uncle ran wildly holding Zhuji, and Zhuji's small body was always slumped on the uncle's shoulders, holding her mouth flat and holding back her tears.

After running back home, the uncle was sure he was safe.

The village next door was also flooded. They are not close to the sea, and the water level is not easy to recede. If there is no other way, everyone takes advantage of the natural conditions and temporarily lives in the cave.The caves are very secretive, and the group of people couldn't find it for a while.

"Huh...that group of people is really scary. If I had known this, I might as well have sold you to the city." The uncle wiped his sweat.

After learning that there was no threat, Zhuji immediately burst into tears, bursting into tears.

The uncle is not good at dealing with children who often cry and scream, frowning, scratching his head: "Little devil, isn't your father very powerful? Why didn't he come to save you?"

Zhuji sobbed, out of breath: "Zhuji's flute... because Zhuji's flute is missing..."

"If you cry any more, uncle's heart will melt. Are you hungry? Although there is nothing to eat at home, it can still fill you up." The uncle helped Zhuji wipe away her tears with his sleeve, and wiped the picture on the way. Dirty face.

What happened to Zhuji made the uncle feel distressed. Fortunately, he didn't become a human trafficker at that time, otherwise the gods would not bless him.

"Thank you... Uncle..." Although the pain on her body did not disappear, Zhuji still did not forget to thank the kind-hearted uncle.

"Just call me Uncle Hai. They all call me Ah Hai."

Ah Hai heard from a fortune teller in the city that he was an ugly fish demon in his previous life.However, he later helped many fishermen at sea and did many good deeds before he became humane and became very handsome.Ah Hai is very superstitious, he will do what the fortune teller says.

Since the last time Zhu Ji was let go, the fortune teller told Ah Hai to continue to do good deeds in this life and not to have any wrong thoughts, so he has always been a good person.

Therefore, he decided to adopt the homeless Zhuji.
