Chapter 179: No Body
But when it comes to jade tablets, I can't help but be curious in my heart, and ask Lei Tingting why the jade piece is so important, and I have to fight hard to get it?
Lei Tingting's face changed, she tucked her collar a little unnaturally, and said with a smile that the reason was very complicated, and when she had the opportunity to tell me again, she turned the conversation around, saying that the plague corpse leader was estimated to be because he couldn't be saved by the epidemic, so he wanted to go to Taiyin to refine the form, but he was so unlucky, and he boiled it out, but he was harmed by the broken face Wenqu, and he took so many lives. 8.88.1c1om
I could see that Lei Tingting was also holding the jade piece and hanging it in her personal place, exactly the same as the place where the plague corpse head was hung.
, it's really not disgusting, but at the same time, I have a hunch that this jade piece may be a little dangerous.
Xiao Liang seized the opportunity and said that Lei Tingting was hiding it very inauthentically, Lei Tingting showed an expression of not caring about you, and Xiao Liang was even more unhappy.
When I was walking around the hospital, there were two beautiful women around me, one on the left and one on the right, and the male patients in the hospital showed an expression of envy, jealousy and hatred to me, and gave me the nickname Peach Blossom Plum.
Your mother, this peach blossom is really the taste of who knows.
Fortunately, my body has the help of the two things on the back after all, and the recovery is very fast, speaking of which, I haven't heard the sound of that thing for a long time, only the pair of tattoos on the back are left, and everyone who sees it thinks I have mixed with the underworld.
When it was finally time to be discharged from the hospital, I took the ABC card with me, and the first thing I did was to go to the West Pond to buy fish and release them.
The West Reservoir is the holy place of the county's release, there used to be an ancestral hall here, but now it is dilapidated, there may be no one left, and I don't know what god is worshipped, people call this ancestral hall the ancestral hall.
There is also a legend about the release here, saying that a fisherman who stayed in the ancestral hall of Xishuitang caught a few yellow eels and kept them in a bamboo basket to be sold in the vegetable market the next day. But that night, he dreamed that ten men in yellow cloaks threw their hands at him, begging him to let him live, and that he would be rewarded.
When the fisherman woke up, he didn't know what this dream meant, so he asked the monks in the ancestral hall.
When the monk heard this, he asked him if he had caught anything that day, and the fisherman remembered the yellow eel he caught yesterday, so he took it to the monk to see, and it turned out that there were no more or no less than ten of them, and the monk said that the person in yellow clothes was this, and persuaded him to release it.
The fisherman was timid, for fear that this thing would become fine, and if he really sold it, he would not be able to sell it for a few dollars, and he would have to suffer retribution, so he released all the ten yellow eels, and that day, when he threw the basket again, he felt heavy when he lifted it, and when he looked at it again, there were ten gold bars in it.
This is a very famous legend in our county, so our county has always had the tradition of releasing animals, and the release location is of course the West Reservoir.
led the increasing number of members in the door, and entered the West Pond in a mighty way.
Because the West Reservoir is also a well-known tourist attraction in our county, there has always been a special hawker here to release fish, forming a fish market.
I used to pick fish, but I was surprised that this fish market has changed from the bustling and lively of the past, and it is actually scattered with people, and the door is crowded, similar to the Korean shops after THAAD.
Even the vendors are much less.
I was a little puzzled, so I asked an old man who sold fish, why are there so few people recently, don't the people in the county do bad things, and they don't need to release their lives to accumulate virtue?
"Hey," the old man slapped his thigh and began to pour bitter water: "You don't know, something happened to the West Pond, we are really miserable!" ”
I became interested and asked the old man what was going on in the West Pond.
The old man sighed, pointed to the famous release port in the West Reservoir, and said that someone jumped from there, but he still hasn't found it!
Can't you? How big is the West Pond, if someone falls down, it is impossible to find it!
"It's true!" The old man sighed and lowered his voice: "It's not only strange that people can't find it, but what's even more strange is that since the person who hit him disappeared, this place has started to haunt the water ghosts." ”
I was more interested, urging to ask what was going on with the water ghosts.
The old man said, because the depth here is suitable, and now it is early summer, many children come here to take a bath, but after the incident, some children are not allowed to come, but there are still bold people to steal, as a result, as soon as the water is released, I feel that someone pulled him down, several children choked on the water, and when they picked it up, there were really a few blue and black finger marks on the ankles!
The children also said that they were vague under the water, and they saw a white face that had been soaked and rotten.
Naturally, no one dared to go down at this moment, but the professional salvage personnel filtered it with a strainer, but they still couldn't find the body of the diving man.
So people naturally have a legend that the person who threw himself into the water has become a water ghost, and he wants to find a stand-in to replace him!
Now, let alone swimming, no one dares to come to the release, for fear that when they get to the shore, they will be dragged by a white hand and be a water ghost.
"You said, the junior who intervened in other people's families, had abortions, beat his father and scolded his mother, and pit others for his livelihood, he was a human being, and he would be a little disappointed, and he would come to release him if he had a bad heart, but in this way, who dares to come, we can't hold on to this business, you don't know how high the price of this fry is, and how expensive the feed is."
Kelpie? Legend has it that the water ghosts, hanged ghosts, and these people who committed suicide, although they killed themselves, they also had the sin of killing, so these dead people should stay where they are and not allowed to be reincarnated, unless someone else also looks for a short-term view to replace them.
But suicide is hard to find after all, and some such dead people are in a hurry, and deliberately pull people who have no thoughts of suicide over for themselves, called "substitutes".
Could it be that there are really water ghosts here? I asked the old man who sold the fish, did the man who threw himself commit suicide, or did he have an accident, or was he pushed down by whom?
The old man shook his head, and said regrettably, although he also sold fish in the West Pond that day, but because the business was so good, he only saw the man sitting on the bridge alone all day, and it seemed to be crying, because the man had tears and did not flick, and he would always feel that it was useless to see the man crying, so the old man did look at it a few more times, but when he looked up again, he heard the people around him shouting that someone fell into the water or something, and no one knew how to fall down.
Even if you become a water ghost, there's no reason why the corpse is gone? There are too many places where you can't see people alive or dead, and you can't say for sure.
Lei Tingting specializes in dealing with this kind of thing, so she has already looked for it, sniffed the surrounding smell carefully, and said with certainty: "The person must be dead, there is indeed corpse gas here." ”
I asked, under what circumstances is a person dead and the body not found?
Lei Tingting thought about it sideways and said: "One possibility is that the corpse was damaged, such as being eaten by something, or the dead person didn't want the corpse to be revealed and hid it himself, and there is another possibility, that is, the person who fished was not serious and did not show up." ”
"This last one may be unlikely," Tang Benchu took out the strength to look at Conan, held his chin and said seriously: "The old man also said that the fishermen have fished several times, and I still think that Sister Tingting's first idea is more likely, there must be something that eats people under the water!" ”
"," Wang Deguang was the first to disagree: "You also said, the fishing team has fished several times, and there are really man-eating monsters or something, and they will be caught as soon as possible." ”
"Tsk," Tang Benchu hurriedly said, "It's not necessarily a monster that eats people, have you heard of piranhas?" ”
said and slapped his thigh, "Could it be that someone bought a piranha and released it and ate the corpse?" ”
I remembered Lei Tingting's second conjecture, if the dead don't want their bodies to be found, why is that?
At this time, someone suddenly shouted behind him: "This is it, cast the net!" ”
Looking back, another fishing team came, and a few people followed behind the fishing team, and a middle-aged woman with hot instant noodles pointed to the water with red eyes: "I have to fish my brother up today!" ”
Coincidentally, it was the family of the deceased who came.
We were all curious about it and wanted to see what was going on
