At that time, the spread of information was slow, but this matter still spread far and wide, and soon spread throughout the lower reaches of the Yellow River, Lao Wang said that even thirty years later, if you ask the old people in this vicinity, most of them know about it.

Li Si returned home with his wife and children, and he was also worried! No matter what you say, it's always your own flesh and blood, as the saying goes, "blood is thicker than water", you can't just throw it away, you have to raise it first! Later, there was a saying in Hewang Village: The day Li's fourth daughter-in-law gave birth to a child happened to be the first anniversary of him leading people to catch the white snake, which was the revenge of the white snake.

Thirty years ago, most of the people liked to spread this kind of godly chatter, whether it was true or not, in fact, the communicators themselves did not care whether it was true or not, even if the rumors sounded illogical and outrageous, they preferred to believe that it was true.

More than a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and Li Si's child is more than a year old, and the neighbors behind him call him a snake child.

Normal children can walk when they are more than a year old, and they can also shout simple words such as "daddy", but the snake child can only crawl on the ground, and the speed is surprisingly fast, and he can't speak, and his mouth keeps making this "whoosh" sound, and what makes people feel even more creepy is that when he smirks at people, he always likes to stick out his tongue.

Within three years after the birth of the snake child, that is, before 1989, Li Si's family died unexpectedly, and some people suspected the cause of death of his whole family at that time, but on the surface, some were car accidents and some fires, all of which were accidents.

Later, the snake child also disappeared, as for his whereabouts, there are different opinions, some people say that he died, others say that he was taken away by a group of mysterious people, for these two statements, I believe that there are more people who support the latter statement, because on the afternoon of Li Si's car accident, it rained heavily, and several neighbors saw a car parked in front of Li Siyuan in the heavy rain and took away the snake child.

But almost 30 years have passed since these things, and who can tell whether they are true or false?

Lao Wang took the last sip of wine, smiled at me, and lowered his voice: "Brother, there are no outsiders tonight, I'll tell you a secret." ”

"What's the secret?" I hurriedly asked.

"Remember when I said about the Yellow River Museum?"

I nodded: "Remember, there are a lot of objects related to the Yellow River in it." ”

"Someone has seen a snake child made into a specimen, which is said to be Li Si's child."

I felt like I was electrocuted by these words, and it seemed that the specimens of the deformed children salvaged at the bottom of the river really came from this museum.

The two chatted until midnight, and they drank a bottle of wine to the bottom.

The next day, a commercial car came from the city and pulled up in the open space next to the dam house, and four or five people with glasses came out of the car, three of whom were slightly younger, estimated to be in their forties, and all five of them looked polite.

Director Liu and Lao Wang of the police station found me.

"Xiao Liu, those experts are sent by the city bureau to do the test, the location of your dam house is quite suitable, can you borrow it?"

Since the last time I went to the police station to ask him about the black box, and he dealt with me, I didn't have a good impression of this deputy director, anyway, I didn't break the law, there is no need to bird him.

I wanted to refuse, but I saw that Lao Wang's eyes were red. Looking at me swollenly, with expectation in his eyes, my heart softened all of a sudden.

"Whatever! I'm a humble place, and I don't have a place to sit. "I replied lukewarmly.

Director Liu clapped his hands together, this is easy to do, he shouted behind him, and soon a few policemen. Cha brought a few matzas and small tables from the car, as well as teapots and bowls, all of which were placed in the house.

A few experts sat down and discussed things while drinking tea, holding a few pieces of paper in their hands, and I sat and listened.

A middle-aged man said to the old man: "Dr. Zhu, judging from these forensic reports, there are no signs of poisoning on the deceased, except for the scratches on their fingernails, there are no other external injuries on their bodies, and the cause of death is drowning, which is a bit strange!" ”

The old man nodded, took the paper in the middle-aged man's hand, straightened his glasses with his hand, and nodded after a few glances: "It's really strange, but the bud element in their blood is more than a hundred times higher than that of normal people, which may be the reason for their mental abnormality." ”

The old man asked another young man, "Has the food in the stomach been tested?" ”

The young man nodded: "I have already got the report sheet, and I have asked the district police station, they are not a family." ”

The old man asked again, "Is there anything unusual about the food?" ”

The young man thought for a moment: "They all have undigested fish residues in their stomachs, they should have eaten fish in the twenty-four hours before they died, I don't know if this counts as ......"

The old man pondered for a moment and called Director Liu: "Hello! Please send someone to the house of these deceased and bring back all the food scraps that were left over from the night before, if ...... If you can't find it, ask their family what they ate that night, and remember to ask in detail."

Director Liu nodded, turned around and went to assign tasks. Several people continued the discussion.

"Dr. Zhu, do you suspect that they have eaten some poisonous food that causes mental abnormalities?"

The old man shook his head: "According to the autopsy report, the possibility of poisoning has been ruled out, but ...... But I have another idea, we have to wait for them to find the food scraps, and then we can test them to confirm it. ”

In less than half an hour, a few people who went to the village to find food scraps came back one after another, each carrying a bag, and it seemed that they had a harvest.

The old man made a place vacated, and spread a layer of blue plastic paper, and asked several people to put the contents of the bag on the plastic paper. When the contents of the bag were poured out, a fishy smell suddenly spread, and I only felt sick to my stomach.

Looking at the plastic paper, there are leftover meals, animal offal, and half a fish head.

The old man was not too dirty, took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket, and squatted down, and the young man quickly brought a small box and took out a few bottles and cans from it.

The old man took a small tweezer and put a little bit of food from a pile of food into a small vessel, took a drip irrigation, and sucked a tube of blue liquid from a blue bottle and dripped it onto the food residue in the vessel.

My vision was blocked by a few people, and I could only see the old man's face, and I saw that the old man's mouth was slightly open, probably because the old man's face was full of wrinkles, and I couldn't see any change in expression.

"Sure enough! The fish contains a large amount of thunder in its body, which is not poisoning, but radiation. ”

This is even a warning. Cha and several middle-aged people beside the old man were also stunned, and they all retreated.

"Dr. Zhu, this ...... How can there be radiation in this? The young man beside him asked tremblingly.

"I also think this is strange - the fish was caught in the Yellow River?" The old man turned to look at us.

I was so smoky by the smell that I really didn't want to put down my hand, and the old Wang who was sitting next to me hurriedly replied: "Yes! Many neighbors have eaten it, why are they the only ones ......?"

The old man thought for a moment: "It should have something to do with a woman's physique!" This element is very mysterious, not everyone will react, and the so-called lightning poisoning is not really poisoning, but affects the human nervous system and can stimulate the primitive desire in the human body. looking, and even producing strong hallucinations. ”
