People in the village said that the crazy mother and daughter had been in the village for about half a year, and almost everyone in the village had seen it. Think about 20 years ago, many men who couldn't marry a daughter-in-law would choose to spend money to buy a daughter-in-law, including female college students who were cheated, more were "trafficked" from remote areas such as Sichuan and Yunnan, and of course, there were also a small number of girls from poor countries such as Myanmar and Laos.

In the countryside of that era, this kind of thing can be said to be not strange, and it is not surprising to see that someone suddenly has an extra woman, even tied with a rope.

Now many similar documentaries restore the tragic fate of these abducted and trafficked girls to the greatest extent.

Most of them were imprisoned at first, you think! If you can't find a daughter-in-law, either the family is poor or you have problems, and it's nothing to be poor, it's just the hardships of life, and the most shocking thing is those whose families are not poor, but their sons have physical problems, such as: intellectual retardation, paralysis, severe tuberculosis......

These people have money in their families, so they want to save face, and they know that even if the daughter-in-law they buy is beautiful, their sons will not be able to use them, let alone their own grandchildren. I'm reminded of a joke I watched a few years ago:

A landlord's family married a daughter-in-law to a stupid son, and it was time for the cave house at night, and the old couple knew how many pounds and taels their children had, so they were very anxious. There was no way, before going to bed, the landlord called his son to the study and told her that he would play games with his new daughter-in-law at night after stripping naked.

The stupid son asked the landlord, what game to play?

The landlord said that the son should use his "head" to pee on the daughter-in-law's urine until the top bleeds.

The son smiled and said he understood.

The old couple was very satisfied, and joked that this kind of thing is nature, and there is no need to teach it at all, and when the time comes, there will be no teacher.

The night was very lively, and there was a sound of "squeeze" in the cave room, mixed with the son's "ouch" and the daughter-in-law's crying.

The old couple squatted outside to listen to the door, and they couldn't close their mouths with joy.

Who knew that the next day I saw the stupid son walking out of the house with a bloody head, muttering "It's not fun at all".

When the old couple saw this scene, they were full of doubts, so they asked their daughter-in-law what happened.

The daughter-in-law blushed and said that after the stupid son took off his clothes, he began to bang his head against the toilet......

For the sake of the so-called face, their sons are useless, so they do not hesitate to use the despicable way of "borrowing seeds", and some fathers-in-law even get on the horse in person. Women! In fact, there is no "wife's nature" in nature, but there is "motherhood", once they have children, most of them will choose to accept their fate, which is the saying handed down by the elders: marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog.

In the 90s of the last century, Hong Kong made a movie of that kind called "Borrowed Seeds", which was about a similar tragedy.

At that time, in a remote village like Higashido Village, in the dead of night, it was common to hear a woman's hoarse screams from a certain house......

As for how the mother and daughter were stupid, there is probably no way to plug in.

Wu Jinghan in my arms was already asleep, and I was about to sleep, when I suddenly heard someone softly calling my name.

"Liu Ludong ......"

"Liu Ludong—"

For a moment, the sleepiness that had just sprouted was gone, I turned over and raised my head, and I saw two women in white dresses standing inside the door, the moonlight shimmering, shining on the two of them, looking a hazy beauty.

The back of my neck was cold, and I remembered very clearly before going to bed, the door and the door were closed, how could the two of them come in silently? They must not be human...... What else can it be if it's not a human being?

I think about it with my toes, and I can think of it.

The two of them walked to the bed with a smile and reached out to touch me together, their hands were weak and boneless, slippery, and itchy, which should have been very comfortable, but I felt creepy.

"You ...... What do you want to do? ”

In a panic, I didn't know what to say, so I subconsciously shrank back, reached out and touched it, and the side was empty.

What about Wu Jinghan?

My scalp exploded, and he was still lying beside me just now, and it was only a blink of an eye, why was the person gone!

The two women, one big and one small, did not answer, but grinned at me, showing Bai Sensen's teeth, and I could only feel my heart hairy.

It must be a dream! Right! It's a dream.

Taking a deep breath, I admonished myself.

Thinking about it like this, I calmed down a little, everything in front of me should be a dream, I dreamed of them - those two stupid women!! This really fulfills the saying: think about it during the day, dream about it at night.

Who is in a hurry!

How can I wake up from my dreams as quickly as possible? In a hurry, I thought of the "ghost press" that Han Jianli talked about a few days ago, and he said that when he encountered a "ghost press", he could bite the tip of his tongue, because the blood on the tip of the tongue could drive away evil things.

To be honest, when I heard Han Jianli talk about this, it was purely for nothing to listen to and play, and I didn't take it seriously at all, let alone believe it, but at this moment, I just gave it a try with the mentality of "a dead horse as a live horse doctor".

I was so ruthless that I pressed the tip of my tongue to the tip of my teeth, and with a strain, with a burst of pain, everything in front of me changed.

"You...... What are you doing? ”

I saw Wu Jinghan lying on my stomach, stroking my pectoralis major muscle, which is not protruding.

"You were talking in your dreams just now!"

Seeing me open my eyes, Wu Jinghan blushed and sat up with a grin.

"Dream talk? What dream talk? ”

"Say 'don't', 'don't', and call 'mom'."

After saying that, he covered his mouth and laughed.

I scratched my head: "! ”

After saying two words, I realized that my tongue had been bitten and affected my speech, so I quickly turned over and spat on it.

"Yikes! Broken mouth? ”

Wu Jinghan poured me a glass of water, and after I rinsed my mouth, I told the dream I had just had.

The two of them didn't take it too seriously, and after chatting for a while, they consciously went to Zhou Laohan's house for breakfast.

At half past seven in the morning, the village began to worship the river. happy

A large group of villagers, some carrying tables, some carrying chickens and ducks, all alive, walked towards the river.

As far as I know, a hundred years ago, people living on both sides of the Yellow River would sacrifice to the river every time they had a big festival or a major event at home.

According to historical documents, the worship of rivers can be traced back to the primitive society period, and in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, some areas in the south regarded the worship of river gods as a very grand sacrificial activity, such as the Chu State during the Warring States Period.

Qu Yuan wrote an article "Nine Songs. Hebo" should be the earliest river sacrifice word in China.

"Swim with women in the nine rivers, rushing to the wind and raising the water; Take the waterwheel and ride the lotus cover, and drive the two dragons; Deng Kunlun looked around, and his heart was soaring; The sun will be twilight and forgetful, but the extreme is long; Fish scale house Xilong Hall, purple shell que Xizhu Palace; How the spirit is in the water; Take the white turtle to chase the salmon, and swim with the woman in the Zhu of the river; The flow of turmoil will come and go; The son handed over the eastward and sent the beauty to Nanpu; The waves are surging to welcome, and the fish scales are smiling. ”

It is to the effect that the riders of Hebo made a magic car with a cover of lotus leaves, and the two dragons pulled it, galloping on the river, all the way to the east, all the fish, shrimp, crabs and turtles warmly welcomed......

The river god here is the river god, and it is also the most common name for the river god in China, of course, the name of the river god is not the same throughout the country, the entire middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River is believed to have four dragon kings in the four oceans, and similarly, there are also dragon kings of the Yellow River in the Yellow River.

They believed that the dragon king in the Yellow River was the god of the river.

Han Jianli walked behind me, and also noticed that many neighbors were carrying live chickens and ducks in their hands, and couldn't help but ask a fat woman: "Auntie, shouldn't the tributes be cooked!" ”

The fat woman, holding a chicken in one hand and a duck in the other, glanced at him: "Are you stupid?" The Dragon King doesn't eat dead things! ”

The choked Han Jian opened his mouth and didn't speak.

There is an old pier on the riverside, which is said to have been in use a hundred years ago, and it has been abandoned since the river was changed.

The pier was flat, and later fishermen used to dry their nets here.

Nearby villagers over the age of ten know that the water in the river near the old wharf is extremely deep, and even in the years of continuous drought in the sixties, the water here is still bottomless.

It is said that a fisherman surnamed Cui a few decades ago could hold in the water for about ten minutes in one breath, but he dived to the bottom of the water, but what he saw under the water, but he didn't mention it.

Later, when Cui Yufu became seriously ill, when relatives and friends saw him, he once said that he had slipped his mouth and told his friends that there were several huge monster stone statues at the bottom of the river, and a huge stone door, which was carved with strange shapes and symbols.

Immediately after Cui's death, his children moved out of the village, and no one knows where they went.

When moving, many good neighbors in the village went to help, and they also asked the reason for moving, but the children of the Cui family just said that it was a will left by the old father, and refused to say anything else.

So some people say that this is the Yellow River Dragon Palace.

There is another thing, which is also evil and very weird.

Speaking of which, it was seventy or eighty years ago, when it was the period of warlord melee, and after the Midyear Festival, the villagers found more than a dozen corpses in the river, which was not strange, that era! It doesn't matter how many people die, and dead bodies often float down the river.

But after clearing the appearance of the corpse in the river, everyone present was stunned.

These were young and beautiful girls, and they were all dressed in ancient robes, and their hair was all coiled up with elaborate hairpins.

This is strange, could it be that they are all ancient female corpses? But look at the dead corpse with black hair, white skin and red skin, not to mention the dead, it is clear that it has just fallen asleep.

At that time, someone noticed the jewelry on the female corpse, so he dared to go into the water and drag two of the female corpses ashore, and then took off the jewelry, and looked at the clothes intact, which looked like silk to the touch, and the three-inch golden lotus shoes, which were also very beautifully made, and these could be exchanged for money on the black market.

The man had just stripped off the clothes and shoes of the female corpse, and strangely, the female corpse had turned into a white skeleton right under their noses.

Later, this man died, and died a terrible death, because he had cut himself to death with his fingers, and the blood vessels in his neck were broken.

Before he died, he kowtowed hundreds of times towards the Yellow River, chanting "The Dragon King spare me!" I know wrong. ”

A few years later, there was an explanation in several nearby villages, saying that these dozen or so young women were girls who used to sacrifice to the river, and all of them served as the harem of the dragon king, because they made mistakes later, or they were not pleasing to the dragon king, and were punished, but after all, they were also women who had slept with the dragon king, how could they allow mortals to get involved, so the dragon king punished him.

As for why beautiful maidens were used to sacrifice to the river in ancient times, there is a myth and legend.

Said in the ancient river god Feng Yi's daughter-in-law Luo Shen Mi Concubine, looks amazing, was occupied by the Xia Dynasty's tyrannical monarch Dayi, the river god was angry and washed away hundreds of villages, resulting in tens of thousands of people displaced, and later people in order to appease the river god, and then every time the river was sacrificed, she would contribute a young and beautiful girl as a wife to eliminate her anger.

Gradually, it became a cruel custom to sacrifice beautiful maidens to the river.

Time has passed, and now there are few people sacrificing to the river, and even if there is, it should be impossible to use people, right?

Zhou Laohan asked Li Bo to set up the offering table, and all kinds of fruits were placed on the table, and sure enough, there was no cooked food, and finally a king-size incense burner was put on, and more than a dozen yellow incense sticks were inserted.

The ritual of sacrificing the river has begun.

An old man who looked eighty or ninety years old handed an old book to Fa Dian on crutches. Fa Dian still looked hippie and smiled, and after taking the book, he read it aloud.

It sounds like a river sacrifice or an ancient text.

While reading, Fa Dian also danced with his hands, which reminded me of the witch in the primary school textbook "Simon Leopard".

This makes me a little uncertain, if I didn't know in advance that this old monk did have two brushes, I would definitely treat him as a god stick who cheated on eating and drinking.

My eyes were instantly drawn to the villagers on the side.

I saw more than a dozen village women walking to the river, and threw the chickens and ducks in their hands into the river, the chickens and ducks were alive, and the screams were loud, and the ducks could swim, but their legs were tied firmly, and they all sank after a few flutters in the water.

I vaguely remember hearing others say that this is called "life sacrifice".

The dusk water of the river soon returned to calm, and at this time two strong men carried a woman to the river, and I was shocked, cursed, and quickly stopped it. Just now, I thought that even if there is a river sacrifice in today's society, it is absolutely impossible to use "human sacrifice", but I didn't expect it......

Since the late period of primitive society, there are records of sacrificing the Yellow River with living people, not to mention anything else, let's say the "Ximen Leopard" in the primary school textbook, the witch at that time would choose a daughter-in-law for Hebo every year, and the girls from poor families were selected.

It was a slave society 2,000 years ago, not to mention the use of people to sacrifice the river, and the "dignitaries and nobles" of that era were buried with living people, as few as a few people, as many as dozens of people, in today's words: it is very "fashionable" to do so.

But what era is this, how dare you still use living sacrifices? Isn't that murder!

I stopped in front of them: "You guys...... How do you do this? ”

The two of them looked at me in confusion: "What's wrong?" ”

"What era is it, how to use people......"

Before I finished speaking, Zhou Laohan behind me shouted: "Fake! It's a dummy! ”
