Chapter 20: The Yellow River Corpse Collector (Part II)
Chapter 20: The Yellow River Corpse Collector (Part II)
Before leaving, Jian Wunian learned about the corpse collectors in the Yellow River on the Internet
They only fished out the corpses, used a long bamboo pole to pick up weeds and branches floating on the Yellow River, covered the corpse with a white cloth after finding the corpse, and then took a hemp rope mixed with black dog hair and tied it to the waist of the corpse, and hung the corpse on the cliff in the shade, waiting for the family to identify and recognize it clearly, and then carry the corpse ashore. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
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.
According to the requirements of the old water ghost, the equipment was set up, and the water ghost followed the water ghost to the bank of the Yellow River. As soon as the black dog jumped on the bow of the boat, the old water ghost stood still, but told him about the Yellow River corpse king incident that was in a uproar in the lower reaches of the Yellow River before liberation.
In the year of the flood, a large number of corpses floated on the Yellow River. In order to prevent the Japanese from invading Zhengzhou, ****** exploded a dam at Huayuankou, and the Yellow River flowed backwards for a while, drowning hundreds of thousands of people. Afterwards, tens of thousands of floating corpses in the Yellow River, the corpses floated down the current, a stack of piles were blocked at the river bay, groups of big fish and turtles gnawed at the human corpses under the water, listened to it at night, clicked and clicked, just like a group of people lowered their voices and sang there, and occasionally a cry came, I don't know if the people were not dead, so they let the fish eat alive, which made people listen to the creepy, and no one dared to go out to see the black light.
It is said that there was a famine in those years, and there were many dead people, especially on the edge of the Yellow River, and there were floods one after another, and no one had ever seen a dead person, but after all, there were too many corpses, and the corpses kept floating over, and they all stinked in the water, and the smokers did not dare to pass by the river. Later, there was no way out, so the government intervened to let nearby fishermen collect the corpses and burn them collectively on the river beach to prevent the corpses from decomposing and spreading the plague.
As a result, as soon as these fishermen fished, they found that the problem was big, these corpses floating upstream did not go anywhere, but went to a place alone, and dared to feel that these corpses did not float by chance, but something under the water beckoned them. Let's say that these fishermen were curious, and they were also forced by the government's obscenity, so they called everyone to salvage the floating corpses ashore. They found out that there was a strange thing here, generally speaking, when a person dies, the corpse will sink to the water, and when the body decomposes, it will float up, so the higher the floating corpse, the more decompositing it will be. But here it was the opposite, the fishermen found that the corpses floating at the top were the most complete, almost like newly deceased people, and the further down the corpses became, the more decomposed, and at the bottom, the corpses were simply a pile of bones, piled up into a mountain of bones.
Although everyone is afraid, they all know that it is taboo in the water, and no one dares to say anything, so they only work there, thinking that it is serious to quickly fish out these dead bodies that killed a thousand knives, and go home to sleep with their wives and children in their arms! At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling sound under the water, like an earthquake, the boat jumped straight on the water, and the water of the Yellow River seemed to be boiling, and a large bubble as big as a bowl mouth came out from under the water.
The big bubble was extremely smelly, and everyone couldn't help pinching their noses in the rolling waves, and then they heard a hula in the water, and a huge black coffin turned up under the water. The coffin was covered in ink, with bright red ink lines on it, and tadpole-like runes were painted with cinnabar everywhere, red was bright red, black was inky black, and it looked extremely shocking.
The huge coffin shook a few times, and then began to turn slowly, and the floating corpses that had been piled up in a pile followed it, hugging it and floating straight towards the shore. At this time, someone who knew how to do on the shore screamed: "Run, the Yellow River Corpse King has come ashore!"
The legend about the Yellow River Corpse King has been circulating on both sides of the Yellow River for a long time, and folk legends say that the Yellow River Corpse King is transformed by the unjust soul buried in the Yellow River, and will eat people's hearts and minds alive, charming people's minds, and make people become ghosts, following behind it.
――――――
After driving for a day and a night, the three finally came to the Yellow River Ancient Road.
The Yellow River, a major river in northern China, has a total length of about 5,464 kilometers and a basin area of about 752443 square kilometers. It is the sixth longest river in the world and the second longest river in China.
The middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River are mainly mountainous, and the middle and lower reaches are dominated by plains and hills. Because the middle section of the river flows through the Loess Plateau region of China, it carries a large amount of sediment, so it is also known as the river with the most sediment content in the world. But in Chinese history, the diversion of the lower reaches of the Yellow River has had a huge impact on human civilization.
It is the most important birthplace of Chinese civilization, and the Chinese call it the "mother river". Almost 1.6 billion tonnes of sediment are produced every year, of which 1.2 billion tonnes flow into the sea, leaving the remaining 400 million tonnes in the lower reaches of the Yellow River for many years, forming an alluvial plain that is conducive to cultivation.
The Yellow River originates from the Maqu of the ancient Zonglie Basin at the northern foot of the Bayankala Mountains on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in Qinghai Province. From west to east, it flows through 9 provinces of Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan and Shandong, and finally flows into the Bohai Sea in Yingkenli County, Shandong.
However, this time, the place where Jian Wunian and the others went was the Yellow River Ancient Road in Zhengzhou, Henan.
Henan is commonly known as the Central Plains, Central Plains: In a narrow sense, the Central Plains refers to present-day Henan Province. The Central Plains, which originally means "the wilderness in the middle of the world", is the birthplace of Chinese civilization, the cradle of the Chinese people, and the ancestral residence of the Han people, and is regarded as the center of the world by the Chinese people. The Central Plains is also known as China, Middle Earth, and Middle Xia. The Central Plains region has spread with the great integration of the Chinese nation and the expansion of the Central Plains civilization, and the more advanced Chinese people call themselves Chinese in order to distinguish themselves from the four Yi, and some areas that are still in the Siyi period have also been included in the Central Plains cultural area with the spread of the Central Plains culture. For more than 3,000 years, from the Xia Dynasty to the Song and Jin dynasties, the Central Plains has been the political, economic and cultural center of China, with more than 200 emperors building or moving their capitals here. Since ancient times, there is a saying that "those who get the Central Plains get the world", the Central Plains can be established in the world, the rulers of the past dynasties all believe that the dynasty that included the Central Plains into the territory is the orthodox dynasty of China, collectively referred to as the Central Plains Dynasty, China has historical records or archaeological evidence that the ancient capital of the main regime for a long time, the Central Plains region occupies four, namely Luoyang, Kaifeng, Zhengzhou and Anyang.

"It's so beautiful here! It's spectacular."
Jiang Guo looked at the water of the Yellow River, felt the magnificent momentum of the Yellow River surging endlessly, pouring thousands of miles, and couldn't help but sigh.
There are really a lot of pedestrians who come here, it can be described as a sea of people, this time the three of them came to see if the Yellow River corpse fisher still exists, and Tie Wunian himself came with a purpose, if in this crowded place, not only is it in the way, but it is also not easy to act, so Wu Nian took out his mobile phone "Love Crazy 8S" to look for the phone book, and said to Jiang Guo and the two: "I will contact the soul file recorder in this area"
"Hey, I'm Bind Wunian, I'm coming to Zhengzhou, right! I'm in your jurisdiction, oh! The Yellow River Ancient Road! Okay, come quickly, I happen to have something looking for you."
Jian Wunian shook the phone, the phone automatically hung up, and the three of them walked up again, the more they went up, the fewer people there were, and at this time, ...... There was a small boat that appeared in the eyes of everyone, and there was a woman sitting on it, who was not tall and about 1.6 meters, with short hair in a shawl! Wear sunglasses! It also has a star demeanor, with a round face, a high nose bridge, a slightly hooked nose, and a seductive and criminal cherry mouth whispering something.
The three of them walked in and listened, and finally heard the woman's muttering clearly.
"The high-ranking officials in front of him are famous, but after his death, he is just a glass of loess and turns into ashes. Everyone has an obsession that we can't give up, and for this obsession, we turn our backs on God and lurk at the bottom of the dark river, incarnate into Prajna, and never return."
With the woman's whisper, the originally calm Yellow River began to glow with black light, and one after another ghosts appeared in the black light, slowly climbing out of the water and looking down to listen to the woman's whisper.
"One day, you look back, only to see the red dust open the way, no trace, where did I come from, you have forgotten your original appearance"
The ghosts kneeling on the surface of the water, some have a deep resentment, and some don't know why, but at this moment, their bodies emit white light, all the ghosts are looking up at the sky, as if they want to take one last look at the world, Fan Chou suddenly felt strange in his heart, the ghost looked back and took a last look at the scene of this world, it seemed that it had happened somewhere, but Fan Chou just couldn't remember.
Jian Wunian glanced at Fan Chou, and then the ghost turned into a little starlight and dissipated into the world. Fan Chou felt more and more that this scene had happened somewhere, but unfortunately he couldn't remember it.
Her face ...... Good round...... It's like a ball."
Fan Chou is also a cheap, what is not good, say this, the woman on the boat suddenly raised her head, took off her glasses and then threw it at Fan Chou, Fan Chou stretched out her hand, palm outward, the back of her hand on her forehead, and grabbed her glasses steadily.
The woman tapped the boat on her toes, and the whole person was like a flying swallow, jumped to the shore, walked straight towards Fan Chou, raised her hand and called at Fan Chou's face, Fan Chou grinned, grabbed the woman's wrist, and was just about to speak, the woman raised her leg and kicked under Fan Chou's crotch, if you were there at the time, maybe you would hear the sound of broken eggs.
Fan Chou's smile instantly stiffened, his face was like the color of pig's liver, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, his eyes were huge, his hands slowly covered his crotch, and he fell to the ground with an ordinary sound, his body arched into a shrimp, and even his wailing sound was trembling.
Jiang Guo couldn't bear to cover his eyes, and finally saw the woman's appearance clearly, shawl short hair, air bangs, straight eyebrows, black and white eyes, and the power eyes on the bridge of the tall nose added to the quietness.
"Hmph, I haven't seen you for a hundred years, my temper has not changed, I just jokingly said that my face is so round, and you will be so heavy-handed, it will inevitably be too small-bellied."
Jian Wunian pulled Jiang Guo back and said to the woman.
"How my Pantene is small-bellied, I can compare to you, a treacherous villain, a hypocrite, looking at people and animals harmless, scheming in my heart, and scheming so deeply, I didn't expect you to take advantage of the fisherman, sneak attack me behind my back, and take away the treasure mirror, it's really despicable"
