Chapter 179: Arriving at the Destination
It's March. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The lunar calendar has just come out of the first month.
In this season, the Yellow River Ancient Road is still in the dry season, and the Yellow River Ancient Road where Qin Feng is located is very dry and almost cut off.
The surface of the water is also very shallow, and although the water is very turbid, you can still see the sediment at the bottom of the river.
Qin Feng knew this, and it was precisely because it was not in the flood season from May to October, so Qin Feng was not sure if he could find the corpse collector immediately.
At this time, it was still noon, Qin Feng and Zhen Gaoming worked together, found a high ground, and set up the tent, after all, if they were going to stay in this wilderness for three days, they must make good preparations.
"Boss Qin, are we going to stay here for three days?" Although Zhen Gaoming knew the result, he couldn't help but ask Qin Feng.
"Yes. That's how the agreement was discussed, and your boss should have told you! You go and get ready for lunch first, and I'll go for a walk first. What's the matter, call contact, you know my mobile phone number. Qin Feng turned around and said affirmatively.
Before I came, I had already explained everything, I was paying the price of 5,000 a day, and I completely asked the rental company to take care of everything, so I didn't have to worry about these trivial things at all.
Qin Feng looked at the barren place in front of him, with many hills, Qin Feng was ready to take a look first.
This is already a place marked on the map, and although it is the dry season, although the river is not deep, the silt below is very deep.
It's deserted, so check it out on your own and see if you can find some useful information.
For water ghosts, that is, corpse fishers, in his previous life, Qin Feng also knew some things.
Last time in the school office, when I looked at the file bag handed to me by Professor Zuo, I remembered some things about corpse fishers, in fact, among the people, there are still many rumors about water ghosts and corpse fishers.
For example, after the body is recovered, the person who salves the body cannot accept any money from the family of the deceased, but the family of the deceased must invite the boatman to have a vegetarian meal at home, and before leaving, he must tie a strip of red cloth three inches wide and one foot long to the middle finger of the boatman.
These are all for the purpose of warding off evil spirits, and they are also the ancient rules of the Yellow River.
There are also corpse fishers in the folk, this corpse fisher is not the same as the corpse fisher in the feng shui world, most of the folk corpse fishers are called water ghosts, although they all have the same meaning, they do the same thing, and they are all recognized by the water dragon vein, but there is still a difference between the two in nature.
The folk corpse collectors have the rules of the corpse collectors, they only fish for the corpse, use a long bamboo pole to pick up the weeds and branches floating on the Yellow River, cover the corpse with a white cloth after finding the corpse, and then take a hemp rope mixed with black dog hair and tie it to the waist of the corpse, hang the corpse on the cliff in the shade, and wait for the family to identify and recognize it clearly, and then carry the corpse ashore.
Of course, the folk corpse collectors do not fish for everything, if they encounter a corpse standing upright in the water, and only a touch of hair floats on the water, they will turn around and leave, and will never try to salvage it.
In this regard, their explanation is: they are just picking up corpses on behalf of people, not redressing grievances on behalf of ghosts, and this kind of death standing upright in the water is not a corpse, it is a kind of evil.
Strange to say, after many people die in the water, the corpse does not float up, and when the corpse is fished out, it is still as if it has just died, and the corpse is still the same as before.
Not only that, but these underwater corpses will always stand upright in the water, maintaining a walking posture, and the corpses will slowly move forward with the waves, as if they are walking slowly.
Many times in the dry riverbed, you can see clear footprints under the water, step by step to the deepest point, and when you reach the end, you will turn in another direction and continue walking, as if you are walking underwater.
It is said that these people who died on the Yellow River were so angry that they refused to leave, and they had to wait until they killed others before they would fall.
It's a terrible legend, if you think about it, if you cross the Yellow River in a boat, and the boat goes to the middle of the river, you look down and you see a man walking underwater, and he smiles at you as he walks.
With this feeling, your trip to the Yellow River will definitely not be comfortable.
If such a death is encountered, then the family of the deceased will have to go to the water ghost.
Water ghosts are also the name of folk corpse fishers, this kind of water ghosts are not feng shui corpse fishers, most of them are hereditary, they have unique skills, and their unique ability is to ask for trouble.
It is said that the water ghost is an ancestral secret method, and the behavior is strange and strange, and outsiders have no way of knowing.
Some people say that water ghosts have used a secret potion to wash their eyes since they were young, and after decades of practicing water watching on the edge of the Yellow River, their eyes can penetrate the turbid river water, and they can see the walking corpses underwater at a glance.
This kind of water ghost generally lives alone on the edge of the Yellow River, has no children and no daughters, has a black dog at home since childhood, and has a large penny in the courtyard, on which is tied an octagonal mirror, these are all objects to ward off evil spirits.
When the water ghost came home, the first thing he did was to call the black dog, then look in the mirror, and if it was all right, go back to the house to cook and sleep.
If the black dog barks incessantly and there is blood in the mirror, he will turn around, go to the edge of the Yellow River and walk around again, remove the obscure objects on his body and come back.
On the edge of the old Yellow River, there are many folk rumors about water ghosts, some people say that the black dog he raised is the dragon dog in the Yellow River, and some people say that water ghosts have fed on water corpses since childhood, and they can only get close to the walking corpses in the water.
However, these claims are legends and cannot be believed.
Qin Feng knew that these so-called folk corpse fishers were actually just the descendants of the ancient feng shui corpse fishers, because the ancestors' grievances were too heavy, and the cause and effect of good and evil could not be solved at all, so they would repay the debts from generation to generation, and repay the causal debts, in the final analysis, in fact, this is more of a curse from the water dragon veins of the ancient Yellow River.
Cursed Feng Shui monks to dig up the descendants of corpses. After a long period of moving, it slowly transformed into a profession.
It is precisely because of this that the current feng shui monks are becoming more and more rare, on the contrary, there are more and more corpse-fishing ghosts among the people, and they are easy to find.
In his previous life, Qin Feng also knew a lot about the rumored classics of the Yellow River Ancient Road.
Especially in the feng shui world, about the Republic of China period, at that time, a master in the feng shui world, Qin Feng has heard of it, and it has been recorded in many classics, at that time, this incident shocked the entire Chinese feng shui world, and the same also made a master of the great perfection realm of the feng shui world fall here.
