87_87408 Chapter 206 Water Ghost

He really couldn't figure out that he had only been out for a few days, and the person who had been smiling softly at him before leaving, saw it again and turned into a cold corpse.

He asked his fifth mother-in-law, who was holding the child, why her daughter-in-law threw herself into the well, and the fifth mother-in-law actually said that she didn't know it herself, and said that Xu Yuling came back from the city, and when she was pregnant, she also contracted some postpartum depression in the city, so she couldn't think about it for a while.

Of course Gangzi doesn't believe it, his daughter-in-law always smiles at herself, where does she look like a person with depression! But he really couldn't think of anything else than that.

He really didn't believe why his daughter-in-law would commit suicide when she suddenly saw it, and Gangzi also said that he would report to the police station and let people find out the truth.

The fifth mother-in-law is naturally unwilling, everyone knows that she and her daughter-in-law do not deal with each other, although the daughter-in-law threw herself into the well, but after all, she still has her own reasons, and she is afraid that she will not be able to escape the involvement.

Besides, his son still attaches so much importance to Yuling, if he knows the truth, he must not take his grandson to cut off relations with him.

Therefore, the fifth mother-in-law refused to let her son call the police, but pointed at her son's nose and scolded: "If a person dies, he will die, can she still come back to life if the police are recruited?" If you don't look at these ten miles and eight villages, if everyone knows that Yuling threw herself into a well, maybe you will be a wife, see what you will do in the future? ”

Gangzi is not afraid, without Yuling, he doesn't want anyone else in the future, so he said: "If you don't marry, you won't marry, and I don't want anyone else in the future, I just want to give Yuling justice!" ”

"What's fair or unfair, if this thing gets out, her family won't have to come to us to trouble, you got married and spent a lot of money, and the money that came back to you is so blind to toss, and you look at this doll, you don't care if you cry like this, and you still think about the dead person?" As he spoke, he pointed to the crying child in his arms.

Gangzi listened to the old lady's scolding, and then remembered that Yuling also left a son for herself, and when she looked up, the child in the arms of the fifth mother-in-law who was waiting to be fed couldn't help but be a little soft-hearted.

The fifth mother-in-law saw that her son's attitude was a little relaxed, so she made persistent efforts, and persuaded Wen Sheng again: "You have to spend money to find someone to check, it is the right thing to bring up the child with this money, and the daughter-in-law can go again if she is gone, this doll is indeed the root of our family, and nothing is important to him, do you know?" ”

In this way, the fifth mother-in-law coaxed her son with scolding and persuasion, and asked him to no longer investigate why her daughter-in-law committed suicide by throwing herself into a well, but only publicized that her daughter-in-law accidentally fell into the well when she got up in the middle of the night.

Of course, this is an external statement, and it can't be hidden from the people in the village, the words of the fifth mother-in-law on the day Yuling threw herself into the well can be heard more or less by the neighbors, and the fifth mother-in-law usually takes advantage of Gangzi's absence to always let Yuling do this and that, and everyone also sees it.

Later, Yuling threw herself into the well, but Gangzi didn't rush back, and the people in the village helped fish people up, so in addition to hiding these things from Gangzi and people outside the village who didn't know the truth, who would understand.

The people in the village also like Yuling, she has been outside for a few years, she has seen a lot of things, and she is always willing to chat with everyone, but she does not have the sense of superiority that comes back from outside, and she never looks down on people, so everyone has a lot of complaints about her death.

But the fifth mother-in-law let go, saying that if anyone gossips about her family too much, he will embarrass her wife and bully their orphans and widows, and when the time comes, he will die in front of his house.

The fifth mother-in-law is a strong person, spicy by nature, a mouth is famous for the ten miles and eight villages, there was a child and Gangzi when they were playing together, accidentally pushed Gangzi to the field, after the fifth mother-in-law knew, that pointed to the nose of the family, stood at the door of the house and scolded, scolded for several hours, and then saw the family once and scolded once, the scared family since then, saw the five mother-in-law are hiding and walking.

In addition, the fifth mother-in-law and the village chief have some relatives, everyone is afraid that offending her is equivalent to offending the village chief, you must know that the village chief is the biggest official in the entire village, and it is really not worth offending him for an outsider.

Therefore, although everyone has a lot of complaints about Yuling's death, they dare to talk about it from home behind their backs, and never dare to say it in front of Gangzi, and Gangzi has been kept in the dark.

It's also strange to say, this child was born just a few days ago, and he was originally very well-behaved, and he could stay quietly in anyone's arms, but on the night when Yuling threw himself into the well, the child seemed to be telepathic with his mother, and he couldn't coax it, just crying vigorously, no matter how the fifth mother-in-law coaxed, he couldn't be quiet, and because of this, the fifth mother-in-law was tired all night and didn't pay attention to what happened in the yard.

Looking at the hungry crying child, Gangzi was a little at a loss, but it may be the nature of the father and son, he was still a little nervous and hugged the child from the arms of the fifth mother-in-law, recalled the appearance of the women in the village coaxing the child, gently shook his body to coax him, and the child seemed to be sensing Gangzi, and actually stopped crying immediately.

But as soon as the fifth mother-in-law took it, the child howled "wow" again, and when Gangzi saw it, he hugged it back, and the child immediately stopped crying.

Only then did they know that the child only kissed Gangzi, and no one else followed, and only when Gangzi held the child, the child would obediently quiet down and drink milk.

In this way, Gangzi took his newly born son by himself, a father and a mother alone, wearing many hats, sometimes very hard, but thinking that this was the last thought that Yuling left for himself, he felt more or less comforted in his heart.

In this way, the days flickered for more than a few months, and the children left by Yuling grew up slowly, but they were still sticky to Gangzi, and no one would hold them, including the fifth mother-in-law, who was only willing to follow Gangzi, as long as Gangzi would not cry when he hugged him.

The fifth mother-in-law saw that her grandson was always clinging to her son, and he was not close to herself, and on the one hand, she felt sorry for her son, and felt that he was a big man to take care of a doll, which was really not good.

So, the fifth mother-in-law's mind came alive again, and she began to plan to find another daughter-in-law for her son.

Yuling has just been gone, the old lady is looking for another one for herself, when Gangzi heard it, he was naturally unwilling, he still has Yuling in his heart, and he also has a son at home, where can he look at other women, not to mention that this is also a pit for others!

Therefore, Gangzi resolutely disagreed, but the fifth mother-in-law insisted on having another daughter-in-law, but Gangzi refused to see it, so she invited someone to her home to see each other, and soon fell in love with Xiaofen in the next village.

Xiaofen's family was originally from the same village as Gangzi, but later moved to another village for some reason, because Yuling's matter was not from this village, the family didn't know, only that the daughter-in-law in front of Gangzi left him a doll, plus Xiaofen grew up playing with Gangzi when he was a child.

She also likes Gangzi, and she didn't let the family think about it for too long, so she agreed, saying that she was willing to marry Gangzi and help him take care of the children.

The fifth mother-in-law heard it. Naturally, she is very happy, Xiaofen is from a neighboring village and knows the roots, and she usually doesn't come to visit her, and she likes Gangzi, let her be her daughter-in-law, and the fifth mother-in-law is naturally willing.

But Gangzi is unwilling, he still has Yuling in his heart, and Xiaofen has been a sister and a playmate since he was a child, where is there any feeling.

So the mother and son began to argue again, one said that he didn't want to marry again in the future, and the other scolded Xiaofen for being his daughter-in-law, so they argued for a few months.

Later, somehow, Gangzi actually compromised, saying that he was willing to go to Xiaofen to be his wife, and soon under the joy of the fifth mother-in-law, a wedding banquet was set up, and later, early in the morning of the second day of the wedding banquet, there was a scene at the beginning - the fifth mother-in-law threw herself into the well.

"It's all retribution!" When the woman had finished speaking, she sighed.

Retribution? Maybe!

Liu Wanyan and the three of them listened to it and didn't say anything for a long time.

"You say, is that Yuling back for revenge?" Seeing that the attention of the people next to him was on the other side of the house, Li Xianzheng asked quietly.

"I guess it's Yuling," Liu Wanyan hesitated, but finally replied in the affirmative.

"How do you know it's Yuling?" Cheng Buxing asked.

"Remember when we had a wedding banquet yesterday, right?" Liu Wanyan looked at the two friends and said, "At that time, I saw that there was a dark shadow behind the fifth mother-in-law, but the light was too dark at that time, so I couldn't see clearly, it was very blurry!" ”

"Are you sure there's a dark shadow?" Li Xianzheng asked.

"Of course it's sure!"

"That's right," Cheng Buxing also said at this time, "At that time, I saw that the fifth mother-in-law was full of red faces, and her clothes were red and her face was a little black, at that time, I thought it was wrong!" ”

"Then why didn't you say it earlier?" Li Xianzheng said with some reproach, "I saw it all, you should remind them at that time!" ”

"How do you remind you?" Liu Wanyan replied with some amusement: "Yesterday was a day of great joy for others, so we rushed to say that your old lady is going to have an accident, isn't this looking for scolding?" ”

said, and added: "Moreover, I see that although this Yuling threw herself into the well and died, she has not turned into a ghost?" ”

"Didn't turn into a ghost? It's impossible, if not, how could the fifth mother-in-law throw herself into the well? Li Xianzheng was puzzled.

"I'm Yuling has become a ghost, but it's not a ghost, if it's a ghost, the fifth mother-in-law would have died a long time ago, how can someone save her?" Liu Wanyan replied.

"What, how do you say that?"

"I usually want Yuling to die like this, I calculated just now, in fact, she drowned in the water, and the one who drowned generally turned into a water ghost."

"Water ghosts?"

"That's right, it's what the old people often call water monkeys. If Yuling becomes a water monkey, it is impossible for her to let go of the fifth mother-in-law, and she will leave time for people to save the fifth mother-in-law. Liu Wanyan said.

"Why?"

It seemed to expect Li Xianzheng to ask like this, so he replied: "Water ghosts, commonly known as "water monkeys", have long hair all over their bodies, red eyes and black faces, and are said to be ghosts similar to ghosts transformed by the unjust souls of people who drowned in the water, and must be replaced by drowning a person. ”

"You said, if Yuling becomes a water ghost, or a water monkey, the fifth mother-in-law will not be fished out so easily, not to mention that the fifth mother-in-law is an adult strong man, and the water ghost can also pull him in." Liu Wanyan added.

Excessive fright.

In fact, there is a story in the origin of the water ghost, or water monkey.

Once upon a time, there was a man named Ah Fu, who was the only one in his family who depended on his mother, and he was very bad at many things, such as throwing sandbags and making bows and arrows, and he was very bad at children's things, so he was often ridiculed by everyone.

But whenever he talked about water monkeys, he always looked excited, and he said that he had seen water monkeys, and that they were small, monkey-like animals, and that they had dark green claws like ordinary monkeys on dry land......

Whenever Ah Fu told the story of the water monkey, even the adults in the village sometimes stopped to listen to his childish but juddering voice.

At that time, Ah Fu was like a king, a king who was held by others.

Of course, there are also people who are skeptical of Ah Fu, but every now and then, Ah Fu will tell the more terrifying process of predation by the water monkeys to amaze those who doubt.

"The monkey grabbed something on the surface of the water with its tail and pulled it into the water desperately, then grabbed the prey by the throat with its claws and bit it with its teeth! If the man struggles, it will drag him into the water, and the strength will be great," said Ah Fu.

But one early morning, Ah Fu took off his stained coat in front of the children, and jumped into the reservoir behind the village wearing only a pair of shorts.

Of course, Ah Fu refuted the child's words, and said that there must be water monkeys.

So, Ah Fu went into the water like this, and after stabbing in the water a few times, he began to slap the water, which did not seem to be intentional, but with the force of a great desire to survive.

After a while, Ah Fu let out a terrible cry and sank, and the voice was particularly crisp and powerful in the dazzling sunlight - "Water monkey! ”

When Ah Fu was fished up, the big guy saw him again, and Ah Fu's blistered face had the pride of storytelling, but it was no longer vivid; He had a horrible scar on his leg and a small tooth mark.

Since then, Ah Fu's mother has gone crazy, like Xianglin's sister-in-law, and when she sees people, she will always say, "It's for the water monkey cubs, and the tooth marks are so small......"

Later, the village organized people to clean up the reservoir, and only found some water snakes, the so-called "water monkeys", which everyone said had quietly come ashore.

Since then, everyone has turned the person who fell into the water into a ghost, called a water ghost, or a water monkey.

When they turned into water ghosts, they didn't recognize their six relatives, and they only thought about finding a substitute for themselves so that they could be reincarnated, and they didn't care who was in the water, they would only use more strength than a cow to drown the prey in the water.

Therefore, Liu Wanyan can be sure that Yuling has not become a water ghost.

But what would she have been if she hadn't turned into a water ghost? It's not a terrible ghost, otherwise she would definitely have killed the fifth mother-in-law before people found out.

At this moment, there was a frightened scream from inside the room, "Ahhhhh

Startling everyone, Liu Wanyan and the three of them hurriedly ran into the house.

I saw that the fifth mother-in-law opened her eyes angrily, with a frightened expression on her face, her mouth opened wide, and she sat up from the bed at once.

"Yuling, Yuling is back!" The fifth mother-in-law's words were full of panic.

"I see her!" The fifth mother-in-law waved her dry limbs, saw her son, grabbed him tightly, and shouted in her mouth: "I saw her, wet all over her body, looking at me, she was looking at me!" ”

As she spoke, the fifth mother-in-law burst into tears.

Gangzi on the side was stunned, and he hadn't been able to recover from the nonsense in front of the fifth mother-in-law, and he didn't care about the wolf appearance of the current fifth mother-in-law.

Xiao Fen on the side, suddenly brushed a white face, trembled hands, couldn't say a word, one hand was still dangerously supporting the table, and the whole person looked a little shaky.

At this time, Gangzi suddenly seemed to wake up, covered his head, squatted on the ground, buried his face in his knees, and cried, as if he knew some of the truth about his daughter-in-law's suicide.

Liu Wanyan looked around and looked at all corners of the room.

"Hey, they said Yuling is back, did you see anything?" Cheng Buxing poked Liu Wanyan with his elbow and asked quietly.

Liu Wanyan looked at the whole room again, frowned and said, "I didn't see Yuling, I didn't see anything?" ”

"Really?" Cheng Buxing said with doubts.

Liu Wanyan nodded, and once again affirmed: "There is really nothing!" ”

"Then this old lady is strange, you don't have anything to see, then she can still see." Cheng Buxing monster shouted.

"Who knows!" Liu Wanyan replied, saying, "Let's watch it for the time being and see what else she says." ”

The village chief on the side saw that the fifth mother-in-law was awake, and he was still talking nonsense, so he asked his daughter-in-law to go up and help the fifth mother-in-law.

How do you know that the fifth mother-in-law threw the person who came to support her quickly, turned her legs back, knelt on the bed, knelt long enough and kowtowed, and muttered: "I was wrong, I was really wrong, I don't dare anymore, Yuling, please don't come to me again." ”

Liu Wanyan and the three of them were even more strange at this time, obviously there was nothing, how could the fifth mother-in-law be like this.

But at this time, Gangzi still held his head alone and squatted on the ground, as if everything in the room had nothing to do with him, and Xiao Fen also sat on the edge of the table as if he had long lost his strength.

Seeing such a plot, the son and daughter-in-law of the fifth mother-in-law couldn't help, and the village chief had to beg the doctor to go up and show the fifth mother-in-law again
