Chapter 349: Vertical Corpse in the Water
Yang Yang was also startled and ran over to see me.
Xie Sifei pulled out the arrow feather with all his might, and suddenly sighed, asking Senior Brother why this arrow was burnt, as if it was burning? After saying that, he stretched out a finger and wanted to touch it.
"Don't move!"
I ran over and grabbed it and threw it into the water: "Poisonous!" ”
"This is called a coke copper arrow, which is a unique weapon in Jiaozhou. Not only are the materials unusual, but the arrows are extremely poisonous. It is said that it is made of an iron pot that has been burned for many years, but only the old people in Jiaozhou can tell which kind of iron is poisonous. This poison is more powerful than many things in the world, and those who are hit by the arrow will die of purulent blood within three days. ”
Xie Sifei was suddenly shocked: "! ”
"It's a peaceful and prosperous era in broad daylight, or how can someone release arrows in modern society?!"
Hua Butterfly glanced around and pointed to a place not far ahead: "Brother Shouyi, it's there, it's there, the person on the boat put it!" ”
When I took a look, I saw that there was really a small fishing boat on the river.
Two fishermen on the boat, as well as a middle-aged man in a robe, were waving vigorously at us: "Don't come!" Don't come here! ”
"There are !! bodies in the water"
After speaking, he hurriedly picked up a large jar beside him and slammed it into the water, pulled his bow and aimed at it, and put a few scorched copper arrows into the water.
We hurriedly glanced at the place where he had put his arrows, and we were also startled.
I saw that the water was dense, and it was full of "people", all of whom were wearing different clothes, but they all followed the closed and rigorous, and followed the leader of the man wearing a red cloth and a big flower jacket.
The "man" had pigtails and looked like a little girl of fourteen or fifteen years old.
However, like other "people", he walked in the water with his eyes closed, although his feet did not touch, and his mouth kept spitting bubbles, like a fish in the water.
My scalp was numb, why didn't I see this thing just now?
These "people" are actually sunken corpses in the river.
It seems that all dynasties, generations and even periods died in the water, and only when there is a deep resentment will they stand in the water. Because the people who are generally drowned are men and women, the corpse collectors will usually go to salvage and go ashore when they see this situation.
If you see a man looking up and a woman bowing, then this corpse is just as dead as a grievance, and it can't be fished out.
The corpse diggers will not touch it when they see this situation.
Not to mention the corpse standing upright in the water, which is quite resentful, and if you are not careful, you will die.
Therefore, the corpse collector has a rule of three fishing and three non-fishing.
The first is that this kind of corpse standing upright in the water will never be fished out. Because the corpse that stands upright in the water is evil.
The second is that the body will never be fished out of the boat during a thunderstorm, and the third is that after the same body is not successfully fished out of the boat three times, it must not be fished again.
But I see that the long posture on the boat opposite is trying to fish out some vertical corpse below?
At this moment, Xie Sifei was already holding his sword and howling over there: "Hey! What are you doing? How dare the fuck shoot this scorched bronze sword at us! I want to hurt people! ”
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! ”
The middle-aged man stood on the rickety boat, raised his hands above his head and waved at us: "I wanted to shoot the vertical corpse under the water, and I missed it!" ”
Another waved at us and shouted, "Hey! Flash away! I'm going to get a corpse! ”
When I saw the jar he had just thrown into the water, I couldn't help but ask in a loud voice, "Dao Chief!" Did you draw out all these corpses? ”
"Isn't that okay!?"
The Taoist chief looked quite proud, crossed his waist and shouted at us: "I was entrusted by someone to fish up their drowned little granddaughter, na!" Did you see the little girl with pigtails and a big red cloth jacket? That's her! ”
"You guys get out of the way, I've failed twice just now, and I almost hurt her once, this time I must succeed!"
Then he threw a spell worn with a fishing line into the water.
When the charm went into the water, it was bitten by the little girl like a fish swallowing bait, and the Taoist chief was immediately overjoyed, and the fishing line in his hand began to slowly retract into the boat.
The little girl in the red cloth and big flower jacket also followed the hooked fish, and slowly followed the fishing line in that direction.
Gradually, getting closer and closer, the Taoist chief looked more and more happy.
When the little girl approached, he hurriedly took a yellow talisman and put it around the little girl's neck, bypassed the two shoulder blades, tied the little girl tightly, and beckoned to the other two fishermen: "You two dragons!" Why don't you come over and help!? ”
Before the fisherman could pass, we heard a scream from the chief!
Take a closer look, oh yes!
The little girl under the water opened her eyes, only the white triangular eyes stared at the Dao Chief, and a hand with a sharp nail and a hook grabbed the Dao Chief's shoulder, and the other hand clasped the Dao Chief's waist pole, and was about to throw him into the water.
Even Xie Sifei couldn't help but scold the stupid when he saw it.
Just now, when he lassoed the rope, he smacked the little girl's face, which must have made her suck in popularity and shocked.
I said that now is not the time to curse, hurry up and save people.
Seeing that the water is full of vertical corpses, we can't jump into the water!
Hurriedly shouted at the two fishermen: "Quick! Pierce it with a scorched brass arrow! ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard the Taoist chief scream: "Ah! Damn it! Why did you stab me when I was told to stab the corpse? ”
The fisherman said again and again that he was sorry for the mistake, and hurriedly grabbed the arrow and poked it in the little girl's face.
I only heard a pop, and the arrow sank into one of the little girl's eyes.
The little girl immediately let go of her hand and sank straight to the bottom. As soon as the group of vertical corpses under the water saw it, they immediately scattered like swimming fish.
When the water was clear, the little girl with her pigtails was gone.
I don't know if I let those vertical corpses take away or let the scorched copper arrows disappear.
The Taoist was also pulled back to the boat by the two fishermen, and sat on the deck with his legs spread and panting.
I hurriedly asked the shipowner to drive our boat over and pick them up on board, originally wanting Hua Butterfly to show the Taoist chief, after all, he had just let the coke copper arrow pierce it, and if he died, he would definitely die in three days.
Who knew that as soon as Chang got on the boat, he immediately went berserk, came up and grabbed me by the collar: "Who told you to meddle in your business?" Stinky boy, do you know my financial path if you are bad? ”
"Uncle,"
I waved him away calmly: "If it weren't for me just now, you would have let the corpse be pulled down." I can't save this life, what way to make money? ”
"You know what?"
The Taoist chief immediately felt that his face could not be hung up: "I am a plan, this is called ..... Is this called being in Cao Ying, and the heart in Han understands? I first pretended to be caught by them, took the opportunity to penetrate the enemy's interior, and when I discovered the weakness of these vertical corpses, I found their lair and hunted them all down. ”
"Pull it down!"
I almost didn't laugh out loud: "I've never heard of someone taking their lives as undercover agents, and if you really go undercover, then you will become a corpse, you are the same kind as them, how can you catch them all?" I haven't heard of the vertical corpse sweeping the vertical corpse, what's the matter? Will you ever come back to life? ”
The Taoist immediately sat on the ground like a deflated ball: "Then you.... You can't put a scorched arrow at that little girl! It's good this time, not to mention the corpse, there is not even a hair left, and it has disappeared! ”
As soon as I heard it, I said, "What? The little girl is your relative? ”
"It's not,"
The Taoist chief waved his hand: "I was also entrusted by their family to come to retrieve the corpse, I promised before I came out, I will definitely bring the little girl back, and they also promised me to give 30,000 yuan after the deed!" ”
"It's okay now, I haven't made any money, and I have to pay 100,000 yuan!"
I wondered, "What's going on?" ”
The Taoist chief said impatiently: "I made a package ticket with that family, and signed a contract, saying that I must bring the little girl back, if I can't bring it back, I have to compensate them for all their losses, 100,000 yuan!" ”
"! Lao Tzu estimated that their family had never spent so much money on raising this little girl in their lives! ”
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and I jumped up from the ground again: "You are also Mr. Yin and Yang, right?" Otherwise, how do you know that the scorched copper arrow can carrion corpses? ”
I said mine, but it was.
As soon as the words fell, the chief rushed up and clamped my hand: "No matter, you come ashore for a while, you come with me, you go and tell the family, because you and I didn't catch Yang Erya's body, this responsibility is yours!" ”
After saying that, regardless of three-seven-twenty-one, he took my hand and didn't let it go.
I looked at this long man's face, which was a face that had been robbed, and the treasury was red, and he was about to break the fortune.
I don't plan to rob him of his money!
This face was a little abnormal, so I agreed to go with him.
Soon the boat docked, and the Taoist led us along the shore path into the village, and pointed to a place under a bamboo forest: "It's here!" ”
When I saw that the place was a three-room dilapidated house made of loess, I immediately became suspicious.
Xie Sifei even directly said this doubt: "Mom! This dilapidated house is broken, the feng shui is not good, and it will be poor at a glance, even if you fish up the body of the little girl, can they pay the 30,000 yuan? ”
"A man shall not be a man, nor shall the sea be measured."
The Taoist chief glanced at us and warned us in a very disdainful tone: "When is it, you can't just look at people's appearance, you can't just look at people's wealth, you can't just look at clothes and residences, there are a lot of rich people, hidden!"
"I'm sorry,"
I refuted him unceremoniously: "I don't know if the sea water can fight for the time being, but in the eyes of our Mai sect physiognomy masters, people must be able to look good." ”
Who are you, you must have it on your face, and you can't run away.
What you have experienced, what bad things you have done, and what good deeds you have done, are all clear on your face.
Then I looked at the Taoist chief again: "For example, your Taoist chief, your treasury is empty, and your nasolabial folds are raw, which means that you are often hungry because you have no money to eat, and you are usually full and hungry, right?" That's why I earned 20,000 yuan so that I could eat a few good meals. ”
"Alright, alright!"
The Taoist chief was stunned for a moment, and soon waved his hand impatiently: "Even if you are powerful, I won't fight with you!" Let's fix it! ”
Pulling his neck, he shouted into the house: "Aunt Ou! Aunt Ou, I'm back! ”
Immediately, a strong old lady opened the firewood door and rushed out, and saw the Taoist: "How is it?" Did I get it back? ”
