Chapter 187: Yun Mengze
It was a stranger who called, and before He Siliu could ask more, the person hung up the phone, although there was a possibility of prank, but his intuition told He Siliu that the stranger who called should not be joking with him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He Siliu naturally wouldn't let He Cheng call home and ask his mother directly if he knew about it, combined with the fact that He Shuntian hadn't called home during this time, He Siliu decided to go to Shandong with He Cheng to have a look.
Shandong, Yunmengze.
This is the address that the stranger said on the phone, Yunmengze, also known as Yunmeng Daze, the general name of the ancient lakes on the Jianghan Plain in Hubei Province, China. It is bounded by the Yangtze River in the south. In the pre-Qin period, the circumference of this group of lakes was about 450 kilometers. Today's only remaining big lake, Dongting Lake, is only 2,007 square kilometers. Later, due to the continuous sedimentation brought by the Yangtze River and the Han River, the Han River Delta continued to expand, and the scope gradually decreased. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was reduced by half, and during the Tang and Song dynasties, it disintegrated into a group of small lakes dotted around. Since then, some small lakes have gradually silted up, while others have expanded, and Honghu Lake is a large lake that expanded rapidly after the middle of the Qing Dynasty. Of course, Shandong's Yunmengze and Hubei have no half-dime relationship.
He Siliu and He Chengren called before they arrived, hoping that their friends in Shandong could make it convenient and help find out where Yun Mengze was.
The group of friends in Shandong didn't do things efficiently, and when He Cheng and He Siliu got off the car, they had already figured out where Yun Mengze was, it turned out that this Shandong "Yun Mengze" was the name of a small coastal fishing village, and with the help of local friends, He Cheng and He Siliu found the fishing village without much effort.
Listen to the introduction of friends in Shandong, "Yunmengze" this village was not called this name before, that is, in the early nineties, the local government to vigorously develop the local tourism, there is a boss who thinks this small fishing village is good, in order to attract tourists also deliberately changed the name, as a result, not long after the development, the boss was found to have economic problems, the construction of a general small fishing village no one asked anymore, leaving only a mess, with more and more young people in the village going out to work in recent years, The small fishing village, which was already desolate with few families, is even more desolate.
Before going to the fishing village, He Siliu specially learned about the situation in this village, this fishing village now has less than 30 households, and there are only three families who really rely on fishing in the sea to make a living, one family is surnamed Niu, and there are three brothers in the family, all of whom are about 30 years old, because the family is poor, they have not been able to get a daughter-in-law, and the other two families are surnamed Ding, one of which is a father and son fishing, and one is two brothers.
During the Chinese New Year, He Siliu knew from He Shuntian that what they investigated this time seemed to be a big tomb under the sea, since it was a tomb on the bottom of the sea, and it had something to do with this village, so He regretted that they would have to start with these three families, as long as He Shuntian and they went to the sea, they would definitely find local experienced fishermen to help.
He regret that when they arrived, the village was really doing a funeral, at the entrance of the village, I saw four or five sixty and seventy-year-old people sitting there basking in the sun, all chatting about the three brothers of the Niu family who had just died, most of the people in the village were relatively simple, several old people saw He Cheng and He Siliu, two outsiders who were old and young, asked the Niu family how to go, and thought it was a distant relative of the Niu family, sighing and saying a few words, He Siliu and He Cheng knew that it was the Niu family who did the funeral.
He Siliu and He Cheng were not in a hurry to go directly to Niu's house, some things can often be seen more through others, He Siliu took out a pack of Chinese cigarettes from his body, and then smiled and gave a cigarette to each of the old people, He Cheng also obediently lit cigarettes for them, although several old people live in remote fishing villages, but they have heard of Chinese cigarettes, and the smiles on their faces are also a lot brighter.
"Brother, don't hide it, we are the uncle of the Niu family, alas, we didn't know what was going on when we came in a hurry, brother, you tell us, this is my son." He Siliu sat down on a stone next to a few old people with a smile.
"It turned out to be a relative of Lao Niu's family, hey, this kind of thing is not easy to say, it is not easy to say......" Several old people smoked, although they were laughing, but they didn't say much, He Siliu also understood, rural people are more taboo, busy giving cigarettes to a few people, and at the same time making a look at He regret.
"A few uncles, come, the baby will light a cigarette for you, you can tell my father, this way, we are both in a hurry, and I don't know what's going on, and we can't ask directly when we get to his house." He Cheng naturally understood what He Siliu meant, and asked in a pleading tone while lighting a cigarette.
"You really don't know what's going on?" There was a bald old man who was a little overwhelmed by He Cheng's begging, and pretended to be surprised and said.
"Oh, old man, can I still lie to you, I only heard that it was an accident, no, didn't I come to ask you, I know how good you are......" He regretted that he knew that it would be a bit too much to say more, and not everyone was willing to wear high hats, especially these old people in the countryside, who simply closed their mouths and looked at the old man with blank eyes.
"It's really strange to say this, you don't know, this matter has been rumored in the village for a while now, don't believe you ask a few of them, right?" The bald old man said and asked a few people next to him.
"What's strange about this, if you do something bad, the sea god can't look past it, you de......serve it" The one who spoke was a tall old man, and before he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that He Cheng and He Siliu were relatives of the Niu family, and he was still saying bad things about the Niu family behind his back, stood up and sighed, shook his head and left, and the other old people next to him also smiled and left.
"You old things, really, why are you all gone......" The bald old man saw that the other old people also stood up, and scolded helplessly.
"Come on, brother, you sit, they're gone, we'll listen to you, what did you do bad, what did the sea god? Could it be that the brothers of the Niu family have done something unreasonable? He Siliu saw that the old man was afraid that he would run away, so he hurriedly helped the old man sit down and said suspiciously.
"This, this, you are relatives of the Niu family, and several brothers of the Niu family are dead, I shouldn't have said these words, alas, I still won't say it......" The bald old man seemed to think of something, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and he was about to get up and leave.
"Hey, old man, you can say anything, to be honest, I haven't been here, although we are relatives with the Niu family, but I don't know if it is a relative in that life, if it weren't for my grandmother to let me and my father come over, I wouldn't want to come......" He regret also figured out the old man's thoughts in his heart, depending on the situation, this Niu family does not seem to be very popular in Yunmengze, seeing that the old man stood up to leave, He regret decided to gamble, put aside the relationship between the Niu family, and see what the old man said.
"Alas, okay, the Niu family blames me, just blame me, you two also sit down, in fact, this matter is also a long story." When the old man heard He Cheng say this, he was also stunned for a moment, then smiled, sat down again, and said.
He regretted knowing that he had made the right bet.
