Chapter 190: Red Mist and Black Ship
I couldn't help but take a deep breath: "The fog on this stretch of the river is red?" ”
The old man turned his face abruptly, glared at me vigorously, and said sharply, "You didn't understand at all!" Then...... It was early summer, where did the fog come from? There shouldn't be fog! ”
I was taken aback by his sudden move, and hurriedly waved my hand: "Uncle, don't be excited!" Didn't see anything other than the red mist? ”
I actually wanted to ask him if he had seen the wreck process clearly.
The old man shook his head, and his voice trembled even more: "I heard a crackling sound coming from the red mist, and the sound of help also came from the red mist, I was frightened at that time, and quickly hid in the cabin and covered my head with a quilt......"
He happened to drink a lot that night, and was a little drunk, and thought that what he saw was "the river ghost grabbing people, so frightened that he hid in the cabin all night, and the next morning he learned about the shipwreck last night."
The second time was three years ago, and it was also in the middle of the night in early summer, and after the same as the first time, there was also a red fog lingering, and it was also a huge black ship that quickly rushed out of the red fog, and it was not until the next day that he learned that another ship had sunk and more than a dozen people died.
If it is said that it may be a coincidence, but the two experiences are almost exactly the same, there is a big black ship, and there is a red fog in both of them, it can't be a coincidence, right?
Except for these two experiences, he had never seen a red fog on the Yellow River, let alone the big black boat.
When the people above came to investigate, he also reflected this, but who believed it!
After listening to the old man's words, I took a deep breath, whether others believed it or not, anyway, I believed it.
On the way back to Donghu Village from the edge of the Yellow River, I couldn't help but call Liu Liwei again.
"Hey, Viagra! Busy? ”
"Just came out of the Forensic Science Bureau's office and had a meeting!"
"Oh? What's the matter? ”
"The DNA test results of the dried corpse found by the Shendan family have come out, who do you guess this person is?"
In fact, I guessed who it was at that time, but the answer in my heart was too terrifying, and I didn't dare to accept it in my heart until there was no solid evidence.
"Yes...... Who is it? ”
"According to Healy's DNA test results, this person is the immediate family of the Divine Egg!"
Although he had already guessed it, when he heard Liu Liwei say this, his heart still trembled: "Could it be his father?" ”
"That's right! Judging by his age, this man can only be his father! ”
Oh, my God! This old guy is a pervert! Nailing a strange mother and daughter alive in a coffin, perhaps to complete some kind of evil sacrifice, can mummify their own father...... I can't say anything about it.
I was stunned for a few seconds before I came to my senses: "Viagra, that...... So why did he do that? ”
"It may be related to some ancient sacrificial ritual, but the specific reason is unknown!"
After a pause, Liu Liwei said again: "That's right! Be careful!
This made me stunned: "What's the matter, why does viagra say that?" ”
"Before the meeting, I talked to the people in the task force, the case is still being sorted out, according to the latest information, your father and they have been active in Donghu Village since they came back from Shaanxi, maybe this is also their ...... After they were killed, the reason why they were buried on the outskirts of Higashido Village! ”
The mood instantly became heavy.
"Brother, this is all the way things go, you still have to mourn and change...... They suspect that there is a reason why your dad stayed near Higashido Village, but they don't know what the reason is. ”
I thanked him, and after deducting the phone, my heart was even more up and down, and before I knew it, I had walked to the small supermarket in Donghu Village, and when I first entered the village, the old men I met were still sitting on the steps basking in the sun.
I thought to myself that these old men would get together if they were fine, although they were not like the old ladies who chewed their tongues for a short time, but they also knew a lot about the village, especially the previous ones, why didn't they ask them about the gods.
"Hello uncles!"
I leaned over and was about to reach into my pocket to touch the cigarette, only to remember that the only box of cigarettes had been given to Old Man Sun.
"Young man, I always see you walking around our village, what are you doing?" The tall and thin old man asked me.
I smiled embarrassedly: "Actually, I am from the water conservancy department of the district police station, and I am here to investigate the shipwreck!" ”
The old man nodded: "I'm afraid you can't control this matter!" ”
I hurriedly explained: "I didn't want to care, I just wanted to figure out the reason and avoid ...... Avoid capsizing in the future! ”
Thinking of what Old Man Sun said just now, I don't know if it's true or not, I always feel a little mysterious, so I want to verify it with a few old men, so I smiled and continued to ask: "There is an old man surnamed Sun by the river, I know each other!" ”
"Sun Cannon?"
The hunchback on the side of the thin old man asked me rhetorically.
"I don't know what it's called, he has an old wooden boat, and he is dressed ......"
Before I could finish speaking, the hunchbacked old man waved his hand: "That must be him!" Don't believe what this man says! It's just a madman - no! It's a ghost! “
Before I could reply, I heard Han Jianjian mutter, "This name is taken - cannon!" Cannon! Why don't you call it a tank! I think he's living a very nourishing life, what a hell is this! ”
I also think it's very strange, I often hear scolding people for being crazy and the like, although this is ugly, it is easy to understand, many people in life scold like this, why does he say that Sun Cannon is a ghost?
The name Sun Cannon is quite strange, but it is easy to understand.
In the past, most of the rural people were free, saying that splashing fame is easy to feed, names like "dog eggs", "pillars" and "urine bubbles" are very common, and there is an interesting legend here, I remember when I was a teenager, the neighbor's uncle said:
Legend has it that the Lord of Yama had a book of life and death in his hand, and every day he would take a pen and draw on it, and draw a cross on whose name, and his subordinates "Little Black" and "Little White" (also said to be "Little Cow" and "Little Pony") would go to arrest people.
Lord Yama is actually a "name control", when he sees an elegant and beautiful name, he wants to circle it out and see what this person looks like, such as "Nalan Xingde", "Li He", "Luo Bin Wang", people with this kind of name don't live long, he doesn't look down on very rustic names, and he is too lazy to circle what he sees "dog eggs", "urine bubbles" and the like, so it leads to the status quo of "cheap names are easy to feed".
The hunchback patted the soil on his hands, a strange expression flashed on his face, he seemed a little embarrassed to look at it, and his voice was obviously lowered: "This 'cannon' is a nickname, and the cannon refers to...... In front of the girl, I can't explain it in detail...... Calling him a ghost isn't a curse! ”
The old man took a breath before he continued: "Sun Cannon is an old bachelor who has been fishing all his life, and now he is quite miserable...... He drowned in the Yellow River ten years ago, and then he came back to life, and since then he has always said crazy things, saying that he has seen the Dragon King of the Yellow River, and that there are many Japanese soldiers and old villagers living in the Yellow River......
Shocked, Han Jianjian scolded behind me.
I asked, "Why didn't he come to live in the village?" ”
The tall and thin old man replied, "He doesn't have a house in the village...... Mainly after that incident, he always said that his life already belonged to the Dragon King of the Yellow River, and he had to live and eat on the Yellow River for the rest of his life. ”
After saying that, the old men all looked at me, and after a few seconds, they actually laughed together.
I was a little confused: "What? A few uncles won't make up nonsense to tease us, right? ”
The tall and thin old man shook his head: "How can it! What we say is true, but believe it! Anyway, the people in our village don't believe it, saying that Sun Dacang is lazy and unwilling to farm honestly, since he says so about himself, the neighbors simply say that he is a river ghost! ”
"I see!"
I was about to ask something, but I heard a cold voice behind me: "Why are you asking so much!" ”
The voice...... My uncle?
When I turned around, I saw my uncle standing more than ten meters behind us, looking straight at us.
"It's okay...... Just ask....... What are you going to do? ”
I can't tell why, when I talk to my uncle, I always panic.
"Find a boat!" After speaking, he walked straight towards the entrance of the village.
After watching him go away, I often breathed a sigh of relief!
"The egg is dead...... I'm afraid I have to find Boss Song for this matter! Before he could turn around, he heard the whispers of several old men.
"Something happened again?"
I asked casually.
It can be seen that among several old men, the tall and thin man is a "leader", with the right to speak first, and the hunchback on the side is considered the "second in command", and the elderly group and the children have a small leader.
The tall and thin man deliberately lowered his voice: "Young man, you don't know yet, do you!" The village is haunted! ”
"Haunted? What a haunting! ”
I thought they were still talking about Sun Cannon.
"Devil in white, don't go out at night!"
It was a bit chaotic to be said by them, first they said that Sun Cannon was a ghost, and then two female ghosts in white appeared, the blue sky and the white sun, Lang Lang Qiankun, where are there so many ghosts! In my opinion, the so-called ghosts are nothing more than the work of the human heart.
Thinking so, he didn't bother to ask again, said goodbye, and walked towards the village branch.
Last night's experience left me physically and mentally exhausted, so I thought about going back and getting some sleep.
As soon as he entered the courtyard gate of the village branch, Zhou Laohan happened to come out head-on, and his face was not good-looking.
"Uncle Zhou, what are you doing here?"
"Oh! Go to the town's health room. He continued walking.
"Who's sick?"
"A neighborhood...... I was scared at the latest. Listening to the tone, he was a little anxious.
With that, he went out of the courtyard gate.
Han Jianjian grinned on the side and said, "What era, still believe this!" ”
Wu Jinghan, who had never spoken, retorted to Han Jianli: "There is no harm in having more faith, at least it makes people feel better psychologically!" ”
I was tired and didn't want to listen to the arguments between the two, so I walked to the room where I had slept before, and without even taking off my coat, I just lay down and fell asleep in a daze.
When I woke up, it was already a little dark, and Wu Jinghan sat on one side playing with her phone.
"What time is it?" Rubbing my eyes, I asked Wu Jinghan.
"It's six o'clock! Just now, Uncle Zhou's daughter came, let us go to dinner, see you sleep so deeply, I didn't call you! ”
When I woke up, I was refreshed, sat up, and saw that there was no one in the room, so I hugged Wu Jinghan behind me, and my hand was still ......
"What are you doing! Wu Jinghan symbolically struggled twice.
"Do what you love!"
Just as he was about to make further moves, he heard the sound of hurried walking outside.
"Is it Uncle Zhou?"
Wu Jinghan hurriedly sorted out her clothes, and I immediately sat up, and took the initiative to shout out to reduce the embarrassment.
No one answered, listening to the footsteps, it was a few people who walked into the courtyard, and they all entered the office on the west side of the village branch at this time.
Soon there was a crackling sound, it was supposed to be moving something out.
The two of them hurriedly walked out of the house, and saw several neighbors carrying tables to the courtyard, and I recognized Li Bo at a sight.
"Brother Li, what are you doing here?"
Li Bo glanced at me and replied, "We will send money and food in the evening, and we will arrange the arrangements for a few of us."
"Sending money and grain" is a local dialect, simply put, it is a kind of sacrificial activity of putting offerings and then burning paper money, the object of sacrifice is sometimes the ancestors of the family, sometimes it is a god, the purpose is either to pray for blessings or to dispel disasters.
Under normal circumstances, "sending money and food" is either for the New Year or for the holidays, or something has happened.
"If it's not a New Year's holiday, why 'send money and food'?" I asked hurriedly.
Li Bo frowned, and his voice was suppressed: "The village is haunted, this matter is still small?"
After saying that, he carried the table and went out the door.
Haunted? It seems that a couple of old men are not joking.
It wasn't early, Wu Jinghan and I hurried to Zhou Laohan's house, and happened to meet Zhou Laohan's daughter on the way.
"Brother! Sister! Let's go eat. ”
We smiled embarrassedly and followed him home.
"What's your name?" On the way, Wu Jinghan asked softly.
"Monday No!" The girl is no longer as shy as before, and her voice is very crisp.
"How old are you?"
"19 years old, almost twenty."
While talking, I arrived at home.
There were several plates of home-cooked food on the table, as well as half a bottle of wine, but Zhou Laohan was not at home.
"Where's your dad?"
"The village 'gave money and food' tonight, and he went to work."
Eating and talking about the haunting of the village.
"Was the village really haunted last night?"
Zhou Zhou Nuo blinked his eyes, nodded, and replied softly: "Not only last night, it's been two consecutive nights!"
"Ahh Wu Jinghan's chopsticks fell to the ground.
All three of them said that it was haunted, especially Zhou Zhounuo, and it shouldn't have been made out of nothing, so it seems that this thing is ......
"Don't go out after dark!" After Zhou Zhou Nuo poured us two glasses of water, he reminded us tremblingly.
"The ghost you're talking about is one big and one small, dressed in white?" I asked.
Zhou Zhou Nuo nodded vigorously: "I heard them say that, and they have already scared several people, and I heard that they have all seen ghost faces." ”
Listening to what she said, I couldn't help but take a deep breath.
When I was about to finish eating, I remembered Han Jianjian, so I asked Zhou Zhounuo, "What about the young man we came with?"
"Brother Han?"
"Oh! Right! Right! ”
"My dad asked him to help, they had already eaten, and said you were sleeping......"
Wu Jinghan laughed on the spot, and hurriedly explained: "It's him sleeping, I'm ...... I didn't sleep! ”
Originally, Zhou Nuo was very natural, but when he heard Wu Jinghan say this, his face instantly turned red.
