"How old is Xia Xian Zuncai? I don't know how to line the boat and don't understand the current, I salvage upstream, and then I will move the people to make a bamboo basket to hit the water, but it's a pity, Xia County Zun is too rigid and self-serving, if the old man knows him, he will definitely scold him for being a yellow-mouthed child, ignorant and arrogant. An old man with a white beard and a look of indignation, wearing a hat and fishing boots, dressed as a fisherman.

A fat woman next to her asked, "Why didn't Gong Zhang fish today?" ”

"Jin Erniang, my boat was requisitioned by Ding Zhutou, how can I go fishing?" Zhang Xuehua is 58 years old this year, has been fishing for a living for generations, and is a well-known fishing expert in Zhending County. Over the past few decades, more than 100,000 fish have been caught from the Hutuo River by his hands.

Jin Erniang asked again: "The boat was requisitioned, why didn't you go to pull the net?" ”

"The old man didn't have time to accompany Xia Xianzun to toss blindly, don't believe it, salvage for a long time, let alone the corpse, there won't even be a fish. With such a big fanfare, the fish were scared away. Zhang Xuehua laughed and twisted his long beard complacently, "It's a pity that the old man didn't have the opportunity to see Xia Xianzun, if you can see him, you must ask him for advice in person, why do you think Dong Xian's body is upstream?" ”

"Zhang Gong, why do you think that Dong Xian's body will be downstream?" As soon as Zhang Xuehua's words fell, a clear-eyed Lang Jun next to him saluted him and said, "With your years of fishing experience, Dong Xian's corpse can only rush downstream?" ”

"That's nature, the corpse is a dead person, and it can only go with the flow, can it still swim against the current like a live fish?" Zhang Xuehua glanced at Lang Jun beside him a few times, and saw that Lang Jun had red lips and white teeth, not to mention that he was very handsome, and his face was pleased, so he couldn't help laughing, "I don't believe you throw a piece of pork into the river, and see if the pork is washed downstream or will it run upstream with long legs?" ”

Young Lang Jun shook his head and said, "Pork is pork, and corpses are corpses." If it is the corpse of an ordinary person, it will definitely be washed downstream by the current, but Dong Xian's corpse is different, Dong Xian is a wealthy businessman in Shile County, and he has a lot of money. ”

"Hahahaha......" Zhang Xuehua couldn't help laughing out loud anymore, "What's the difference between a rich businessman and a poor man when he dies?" Could it be that if you have money before you die, you can buy the river god and let the river god send his body upstream? ”

Jin Erniang opened her mouth and laughed: "Zhang Gong, I've known you for most of my life, and I didn't know that you were so good at telling jokes?" Hahahaha, laughing to death. ”

The crowd around laughed together.

The young Langjun was not annoyed, and stretched out his hand to ask: "Please Zhang Gong follow me to the river." ”

"Just go." Zhang Xuehua doesn't care what young Langjun wants to do, anyway, he has been fishing all his life, and he has never seen any strange things, and he has long been accustomed to things in the world, "Let's go, Jin Erniang will also take a look together, and see how Xiao Langjun let the dead swim upstream." ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested, you pushed me, I pulled you, followed a few people, and came to the river.

Young Langjun squatted down by the river, took out a long stone, and put it in the river. Under the impact of the current, the stone shook a few times and rolled downstream.

Zhang Xuehua grinned: "Xiao Langjun, even the stones are going downstream, let alone people." ”

The crowd laughed again.

The young man was calm and relaxed, and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, don't worry, the show is still to come." He plucked the river with his hand, and the water kept hitting the stones, which shook again and rolled downstream.

"I said Xiao Langjun, don't make trouble, save your energy, your little lady is still waiting for you to go home early." Jin Erniang patted the young Langjun on the shoulder, and laughed so hard that her fat body trembled, "What are you doing with this time and mind, go home and toss your lady, maybe you can still toss tricks." ”

The crowd erupted in a hearty laugh.

The young Lang Jun still smiled lightly, and pointed to the stone in the water with his hand: "Everyone, don't blink, please look at ......"

After tumbling, the stones slowly sank into the soft sand at the bottom of the river, only half of them were exposed, and the river kept hitting the stones, and soon a small pit was washed out at the junction of the stones and the sand. The eyes widened in amazement, and the small pit grew larger and larger, and the stone shook a few times and fell into the sandpit.

"Ahh There was a burst of exclamation from the crowd.

"Huh!" Zhang Xuehua was surprised, the stone really took a step upstream, and he couldn't help but open his mouth wide, "I've been boating on the Hutuo River all my life, and it's the first time I've seen such a strange thing, Xiao Langjun, what kind of weirdness is this?" ”

"It's not weird, it's normal." The young Lang Jun stood up and stood with his hands in his hands, "Zhang Gong has been boating on the Hutuo River for many years, can you know that there is a lot of silt at the bottom of the Hutuo River?" ”

"I know this, the Hutuo River intersects the Lingshou River and the Fuyang River, and the water of the Fuyang River has a lot of sediment. When it flows through the river, the channel of the Hutuo River widens, the water flows slowly, and the sediment is deposited at the bottom of the river. After a long time, it becomes silt. Zhang Xuehua didn't understand why the young Langjun asked this question, and looked puzzled, "What if there is silt at the bottom of the river?" When a person is drowned, the body floats in the water and does not sink to the bottom of the river like a stone. ”

"It's still Zhang Gong's experience, such a simple question, I thought about it for a few days before I figured it out, if I had met Zhang Gong earlier, Dong Xian's body might have been salvaged long ago." Young Lang Jun shook his head slightly and sighed, "I also don't understand, why the bodies of Ma Xiaosan and his wife were found downstream, while Dong Xian's bodies were not seen for dozens of miles down the river?" If it hadn't been deep in the mud, it would have surfaced a long time ago. ”

"That's right, I've been boating on the Hutuo River for many years, and I've seen a lot of corpses, and I've fished some of them, and people usually come to the surface in three to seven days after they die." Zhang Xuehua saw that the stone fell upstream again, and slapped his thigh suddenly, "I understand, Dong Xian's body must have been trapped in the mud, and it was hit by the river, just like a stone, slowly going upstream, and reaching the upstream ......"

"Found it, found it!"

As soon as Zhang Xuehua finished speaking, there was an earth-shattering cheer in the river, and I saw more than a dozen boatmen pull open a large net and forcefully lift the net to the surface. In the middle of the net, there is a corpse!

"It's really upstream!"

"Oh my God, it's amazing, why did you run upstream again after you died, did you meet a ghost?"

"To tell the truth, there must be a lot of water ghosts who have drowned so many people in the river."

"Okay, don't guess, it's not a water ghost, it's a river god."

"I really found it." Zhang Xuehua stomped his feet, waved at the young Langjun and said, "Xiao Langjun, the old man is offended, please don't be surprised." It's just that the old man still has something unclear, please correct. Even if Dong Xian's body is stuck in the mud, after being washed away from the mud, he will surface. Man is not a stone, a stone can sink to the bottom of water, man cannot. ”

"Gong Zhang doesn't have to be polite, it's okay." Young Lang Jun waved his hand, looking at the corpse salvaged in the river from afar, and was overjoyed, "I haven't figured this out before, so I've never been sure that Dong Xian's corpse will be upstream." Later, I thought of one thing, and I figured out the truth. ”

"What's the matter?" Zhang Xuehua's curiosity was aroused, and he was eager to know the truth.

"Zhang Gong come with me." Young Langjun turned around and left, Zhang Xuehua followed closely, no matter where young Langjun went, he had to follow to see and understand, otherwise his curiosity would make him unable to sleep.

Jin Erniang was also full of doubts and quietly followed behind.

The young man parted the crowd, walked all the way to the boat, and got on the boat without saying a word. More than 100 boats are crossed together to form a pontoon bridge. After the young man got on the boat, he passed through one boat after another and came to the largest boat in the middle.

Zhang Xuehua and Jin Erniang followed behind, and they didn't think much about it, just thinking that the young Langjun was a river worker or a boatman.

The body has been salvaged and placed on the ship. Due to the long soaking time, it has been seriously deformed, and its smell is incomparable. The boatman frowned and covered his nose, but the young Langjun didn't care, came to the corpse, leaned over and looked at it a few times, turned back to Zhang Xuehua and said, "Zhang Gongke has heard of the legend of a stone lion......

The boatmen didn't know who the young Langjun was, and when he was a boatman or a river worker, everyone gathered around the corpse and talked non-stop, not caring about the arrival of the young Langjun, Zhang Xuehua and Jin Erniang.

Zhang Xuehua didn't know why the young Langjun asked this, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it." ”

The young Lang Jun first circled around the corpse before he said: "There is a temple near the river bank in the south of Cangzhou City, and one year the canal was flooded, and a pair of stone-carved lions at the gate of the temple's mountain gate were washed into the river. More than ten years later, the monks of the temple wanted to rebuild the mountain gate and find someone to salvage the pair of stone lions. However, the river is turbulent and rushing, and after such a long time, where can I find it? ”

"At first, people fished in the river near the mountain gate, but they found nothing. It was speculated that the river must have been washed downstream. A few more small boats were dispatched, dragging iron rakes, like grate hair, from top to bottom, from left to right, looking for more than ten miles in one breath, but still did not find them. ”

"The stone lion should have sunk to the bottom of the water, and the deeper it sank." Based on his experience, Zhang Xuehua came to a conclusion.

Young Lang Jun smiled and continued: "An old teacher heard about it and said to the salvage man: You really don't know what to do! If the stone lion is not carved from wood, how can it be washed downstream? The stone lion is strong and heavy, the river sand is loose and frivolous, the stone lion is annihilated in the mud and sand, it will only sink deeper and deeper, but you go downstream to find it, is it not in vain! The stone lion is in the silt at the bottom of the river! After listening to the old man's words, everyone felt very reasonable, and they prepared to start digging at the place where the mountain gate had collapsed. At this moment, an old river worker who was guarding the embankment came over and said with a smile: You can't dig in the same place, you should go upstream to find it. ”

When the old gentleman heard this, he shook his head again and again, and said very angrily: Ridiculous, really ridiculous, the old man is knowledgeable and has taught for many years, is it not as good as you as a river worker? How could a stone lion be upstream? Nonsense! Everyone agreed with the old man's words, and they all felt funny about the old riverman's words, and no one paid attention to him. The old river worker felt that he had been greatly humiliated, and he was alone, propped up the river, and went up the river, and found the stone lion in the upstream direction where the stone lion sank with only one meal! ”

The surrounding boatmen surrounded one after another, although a corpse was salvaged, they were not sure if it was Dong Xian's body, but they were all curious about why it was salvaged upstream. When they were arguing endlessly and didn't know why, someone told the story of the stone lion, and they all became interested and listened attentively.

Young Lang Jun continued: "This is a big surprise to everyone, the water is flowing down, a stone lion weighs thousands of catties, and has no long legs, how can it run upstream? Everyone surrounded the old river worker and asked him to tell him why the stone lion ran up. The old river worker laughed and said smugly: I have been dealing with river cement and sand for decades, and I can't figure out its temper? The stone lion is turned upside down. As the saying goes, if you lose a stone in the river, you must seek it upstream. The stone lions are sturdy and heavy, and the river sand is loose and frivolous. The water coming down from the upstream could not move the stone lion, so the stone lion was blocked, and then turned back and rushed to both sides. In this way, the sand under the stone lion is constantly swept away, and slowly rushes out of a pit under the stone lion, and the bigger it is, the stone lion loses its balance, and can not stay in the same place, so it turns upside down in the pit, and the flowing water rushes the sand under the stone lion, and then the stone lion can not stay in the same place again, so it reverses again. In this way, they kept turning their heels, and as the days went by, the stone lions turned their heads upstream one after another. ”

After the young Langjun finished speaking, Zhang Xuehua was stunned on the spot, and suddenly slapped his thigh: "Xiao Langjun, the old man has obeyed you!" But the old man still didn't understand, why did Dong Xian's body turn upstream? Dong Xian is a human being, not a stone lion! ”

"That's right, Dong Xian is a human being, not a stone lion." Young Lang Jun came to Dong Xian's corpse and pressed Dong Xian's swollen corpse with his hand, and the boatmen hid aside, lest they be splashed by the corpse stench, "Zhang Gong, come, you press it, see what is strange about Dong Xian's corpse." ”

Zhang Xuehua stepped forward and carefully pressed his hand on Dong Xian's corpse, and as soon as his hand fell, he said "Huh": "Strange, what is this?" Remembering something again, he asked, "Xiao Langjun has seen Dong Xian?" How do you know that this is Dong Xian's corpse? ”

"I haven't seen Dong Xian, and I'm not sure this is Dong Xian's body. However...... "Young Lang Jun pointed to a black mole on the ear of the corpse, and a short ring finger on his right hand," Dong Xian's younger brother Dong Xuan said, Dong Xian's right ring finger was cut off by a knife when he was a child, and there was an obvious black mole on the front of his right ear, the two characteristics were exactly the same, and this person must be Dong Xian. What is Dong Xian's body? See it at a glance. ”

Dong Xian has not been in the water for a long time, and the clothes on his body have not yet begun to rot, so the young Lang Jun reached out and pulled Dong Xian's clothes without pulling them open. At this time, a servant rushed over from behind and pushed the young Langjun's shoulder: "Who are you, why are you moving?" Beware of Xia County's honorific punishment of your sins and hitting your board. ”

Zhang Xuehua also came to his senses at this time, how could he follow Xiao Langjun on the boat in a daze, in case the government investigates it, he can't run away from the board, he was afraid for a while, and said to the young Langjun: "Xiao Langjun, let's get off the boat quickly, don't delay Xia Xianzun's investigation." ”

The young Lang Jun smiled at the officer: "What's your name?" ”

The official was in his twenties, not long after he was on an errand, his face was not childish, and he did not have the air of sophistication, he raised his face and said with extraordinary momentum: "The surname of this errand is all famous, the eldest in the ranks, and the people are called Qi Da." Who are you? Hurry up and get off the boat, be careful to let Ding Zhutou see it, and hit you on the board. ”

"How long have you been on an errand?" The young Lang Jun saw that the fast suit on Qi He's body was very new, and the knife on his waist was also a new knife, and guessed that Qi He should be a newcomer to the county government.

"Today is the seventh day. Why, do you think I'm a newcomer and a bully? Tell you, this difference is a new errand is right, but this difference used to be a well-known fast knife hand, you go to inquire, from Zhending to Shile to Lingshou, who doesn't know the name of Qi Kuaidao? The more Qi He spoke, the more excited he became, and suddenly realized something, no, he was here to drive people off the boat, not to introduce himself, so he coughed majestically, and pressed his right hand under the handle of the knife, "If you don't get off the boat again, don't blame Ben for being polite." ”

"Xia County Zun, Xia County Zun!" Ding Ke and Xiao Wu ran along the pontoon bridge with quick steps, and when they saw Xia Xiang standing in the middle of the boat safe and sound, their hearts fell.

He and Xiao Wu were originally guarding Xia Xiang around Xia Xiang, but in a blink of an eye, they found that Xia Xiang was gone, this surprise was not trivial, there were many onlookers, who knew if there were bad people with ill intentions inside, in case something happened to Xia Xianzun, he couldn't think about what the consequences would be.

Xiao Wu was not in a hurry at all, he had a blind trust in Xia Xiang, thinking that Xia Xiang would definitely be fine, he walked around the crowd with relish, listening to everyone's discussions, observing everyone's every move, like a child who is curious about everything.

Ding Ke turned around for a long time, but still didn't find Xia Xianzun's whereabouts, he was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, he saw that Xiao Wu was not only not in a hurry, but also didn't know where to get a string of sugar gourds to eat with relish, and couldn't help laughing: "Brother Xiao, you still have the heart to eat sugar gourds, Xia Xianzun is gone, come with me to find Xia Xianzun." ”

Xiao Wu bit off a hawthorn and grinned: "Ding Zhutou, Mr. can't lose it, he is better than anyone else, you don't have to panic." If you can guess where my sugar gourd comes from, I'll tell you where your husband is. ”
