Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Broken Temple at the Entrance of the Village
"Oh! Blame me for not making it clear, that's what happened......"
It turned out that a week ago, Professor Song received a call from Li Guozhi, and the two chatted for half an hour, in which Li Guozhi begged him for a favor, if he learned that he had an accident, he must rush to the estuary as soon as possible, and the idea was to cremate his body within 48 hours.
Hearing Professor Song say this, Yao Liguo and the others were even more confused, but I was extremely calm.
The bodies of Stationmaster He and Lao Wang all appeared strange when they were cremated, and it is estimated that Li Guozhi also knew that his body would be the same as them after his death.
In fact, I've always been curious - Stationmaster He's body grew a layer of hair, and when Lao Wang's body was cremated, there was a strange sound similar to a person's scream in the crematorium, what was going on?
If Li Guozhi ...... All three of them are like this...... Does it mean that they have had similar experiences or have had the same experience, which leads to this?
Li Guozhi has always been a river patrol at the Yellow River Water Conservancy Station, and Lao Wang and Wu Baocai both worked as security guards at the Yellow River Pharmaceutical Factory before - of course, Wu Baocai went to the Yellow River Museum again, and if I have to find similarities among the three people, I guess it must have something to do with the events of the year.
Nowadays, there are not many people who know what happened back then, but coincidentally, there is one in front of me.
I was about to ask Professor Song what strange experience they had back then, but before he could speak, he said that he would go to the Hekou District Police Station and communicate with the director about cremating Li Guozhi in advance.
These words couldn't help but make me look at the old man in front of me again, and my tone was so big! But on second thought, after all, he is a professor at a provincial museum, and he must know many high-level figures.
It's hard to say, and it's easy to say with someone's words.
Then wait until he comes back and ask! There is no hurry for this moment.
Yao Liguo accompanied Professor Song to the district police station, and I went out for a walk with Wu Jinghan again, during which I answered a phone call from Liu Liwei, who asked me if I had anything to do in the village in the afternoon, and I briefly told Bo Daya about it.
"That's great! You...... You discuss it with the old Wang's daughter, and we'll go to Zhanhua tomorrow. ”
Just go, Liu Liwei is also anxious.
I hurriedly called Wang Shengjia to discuss, and tomorrow morning I will gather at the district police station and go to Niutou Village in Zhanhua, Binzhou Prefecture.
Although Zhanhua and Hekou belong to different cities, in fact, they are only separated by a river, Niutou Village in Zhanhua County, Binzhou Region, is located in the lower reaches of Hekou District, and it is also a village on the edge of the Yellow River.
This is also easy to understand, after all, it involves big shots.
The less than hour's journey passed quickly, and Liu Liwei parked his car in front of a pontoon bridge.
"Next to this pontoon bridge is Niutou Village."
I wanted to drive the car to the village, but when I arrived at the entrance of the village, I found that the road into the village was full of potholes, probably because of a heavy rain just a few days ago, which was not suitable for cars at all, so I simply parked in the open space under the dam.
Compared with the estuary area, Zhanhua County has a long history, in the Tang and Song dynasties, it was a prosperous port within a radius of 100 miles, gathering guests and friends from all over the world, and during the Anti-Japanese War, it was the local base, and people secretly became the "Wudi Command Area".
However, in recent decades, due to geographical location, economic development has lagged behind, and it has become a poor and backward area in the entire North China Plain.
Looking at Niutou Village from afar, there is a feeling of traveling back to the 80s in a trance.
I couldn't help but secretly say: How did this thin big tooth marry his daughter to such a poor place, and he also came to support the elderly, is it sick!
The four of them walked towards the village, looked from a distance, and saw a broken temple on the edge of Niutou Village, which made me very curious - Zhang Lihai said before that they found Hong Jingsheng in the broken temple at the edge of the village in Binzhou, and it seems that there are still many temples in Binzhou.
As soon as I entered the village, I saw dozens of men, women and children coming out of the village, looking at the direction of the broken temple, looking at the clothes, these are the villagers of Niutou Village.
"Fellow, what are you going to do?" Liu Liwei smiled and stopped the middle-aged woman with freckles on her face.
"Go burn incense for the Yellow River Niangniang!" After speaking, he muttered something in his mouth and continued to follow the crowd forward.
I can't help but sigh with emotion: the poorer and more backward it is, the stronger the feudal mentality, I really didn't expect what age it is, and there are people who collectively burn incense and worship Buddha......
With the last experience in Shaanxi, after entering the village, we first found the village commissary. There was a young woman with buck teeth in her thirties standing in the supermarket, and if she looked closely, she also had freckles, which could be said to be ugly and ugly.
When Big Bucktooth saw us coming in, he grinned, "What are you buying?" ”
Said to be a supermarket, but only a small house of 30 square meters, I glanced around, basically all of them are tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea and other daily necessities, and they are all relatively cheap.
"This ...... Take another box of ham sausages ......"
Liu Liwei pointed to a box of eight-treasure porridge and then to ham sausage.
Da Luo took something by the side of the big buck teeth, and swallowed melon seeds, and hummed a small song in his mouth: "You came to my village to find relatives?" ”
Liu Liwei nodded: "We are from Hedong, let's take a look at an old guy in the village, he has been living in his daughter's house for five or six years." ”
Big bucktooth threw the melon seed skin to the ground and pouted: "What's the name of her daughter?" ”
Liu Liwei looked at me, I looked at Wang Shengjia, yesterday she only told me that the old man's name was Bo Daya, and she didn't tell me what his daughter's name was.
"This ...... I didn't ask about that! ”
Big Bucktooth laughed: "You guys don't know who you're looking for!" Who are you looking for? ”
Thinking about it, it's useless to know the name Bo Daya, because this is not Hewang Village, Hekou District, the key is to know what his daughter's name is.
"Little ...... Xiao Wang, you can call the neighbors in the village and ask! Liu Liwei said to Wang Shengjia.
"Okay! I asked the neighbors. ”
Wang Shengjia took out his mobile phone and dialed the number and walked outside the supermarket, and a minute later, he walked in again.
"I asked, it's called Winter Flower...... It should be a thin winter flower! ”
Big Bucktooth shook his head: "There is no one named Bo Donghua in our village, she ...... How old is she? ”
"Forty-five or sixteen!"
"I know all the women in our village who are in their forties, and there is no one named Donghua." Big Bucktooth thought for a moment, but still shook his head, "Or you go to our village chief's house and ask?" The brigade headquarters has the household registration information of the people in the village, which can also be checked. ”
After asking the village chief's house to leave, he thanked him and walked out of the supermarket.
The family lived in the easternmost part of the village, with five newly built large tiled houses, which we quickly found.
knocked on the door, and an old man who looked fifty or sixty years old, still holding a cigarette pouch and pot in his hand, walked out slowly.
"Who are you looking for?"
