Chapter 14: Floating Corpses

The daughter-in-law of the boss Liu Yuanhua came to Liu Dehai with a bitter face and told him that Liu Yuanhua and Liu Yuanshuang left together.

Hearing her words, Liu Dehai's eyes turned black and he sat on the ground all of a sudden.

He has a total of five sons, two of whom have already had accidents, and now hearing the news is like a bolt from the blue.

Of the five sons, he liked the eldest son the most. He had already planned that when he was older, he would hand over this family business to Liu Yuanhua to take care of, and even the affairs in the village would be decided by Liu Yuanhua.

He didn't expect to hear such bad news.

Liu Dehai stood up from the ground trembling and asked, "What happened to Yuanhua?" ”

Liu Yuanhua's wife told him what happened that night.

According to Liu Yuanhua's wife, because the two brothers had accidents one after another, Liu Yuanhua felt very uncomfortable and couldn't give up all day long.

He has a hobby, that is, he likes to play suona. Every day after dark, I have to sit on the big bluestone at the gate and blow for a while, and then go back to sleep.

At nine o'clock that night, he sat there with a suona and blew it as before.

His daughter-in-law is used to it, and knows that he will come back to sleep after blowing the suona.

Liu Yuanhua blew for half an hour, and just as he was about to finish, he suddenly heard a gentle footstep behind him.

He tilted his head to look, half frightened to death, when he saw a bloated man standing beside him.

His face was so swollen that he couldn't see clearly, and his eyes were left with only two empty black holes.

According to the contours of his face, Liu Yuanhua still recognized it, and it was his brother Liu Yuanshuang who came.

He had the best relationship with Liu Yuanshuang, and Liu Yuanshuang often sat beside him while smoking and listened to him play suona. Maybe it's because of the sound of suona, which attracted it.

Although Liu Yuanhua missed this younger brother very much, when he saw his appearance, his soul was almost scared away.

He didn't expect that this younger brother liked to listen to him play suona when he was alive, and he was okay after death.

He blew the suona for a while, and planned to quietly run back to the house.

But the suona voice was a little quieter, and Liu Yuanshuang immediately opened his mouth, revealing his white teeth, and saliva flowed down his mouth.

Liu Yuanhua was trembling, so he had to keep blowing down. He blew for more than an hour, dizzy, a little out of breath, but he didn't dare to stop.

He looked around, and it was already past ten o'clock in the night, and everyone in the village was sleeping, and no one would come to help him.

He was thinking of a way to escape, and at that moment, he heard a scream from someone next to him.

He squinted his eyes and glanced at it, it turned out that his wife was a little worried when she saw that he hadn't returned to the house for so long, so she came out to see the situation. As a result, he saw the carrion standing beside him.

She had never seen anything like it before, and she couldn't help but scream.

Hearing her scream, Liu Yuanhua was stunned, and the suona stopped.

This is going to kill him. Liu Yuanshuang pounced over and bit him by the throat fiercely.

Liu Yuanhua only felt that Venus was shining in front of him, his body was getting cold, and at the same time, anger was spreading out of his body. He finally felt his body spread out like air.

And his wife was scared stupid when she saw Liu Yuanshuang biting Liu Yuanhua's throat fiercely. In just a few minutes, Liu Yuanshuang let go of his mouth.

Liu Yuanhua fell to the ground softly, Liu Yuanshuang turned his head, and his empty eyes were in the direction of Liu Yuanhua's wife.

She opened her mouth wide in horror but didn't dare to say anything. What surprised her even more was that Liu Yuanhua, who had fallen to the ground just now, slowly stood up.

He followed Liu Yuanshuang like a puppet. Liu Yuanshuang walked unhurriedly towards the outside of the village,

Liu Yuanhua has been following him more than a meter away.

Not knowing where they were going, Liu Yuanhua's wife got up from the ground tremblingly and quietly followed behind them.

They walked straight towards the river, and the two corpses were in the same posture.

The surroundings were unusually quiet, and only heavy footsteps could be heard, and Liu Yuanhua's wife was almost scared to death. But she doesn't want her husband to be like Liu Yuancai, who can't see anyone alive or dead.

She dared to follow them. They walked to the place where the boat was tethered, and Liu Yuanhua bent down to untie the rope. Together with Liu Yuanshuang, he scuttled the boat out.

By the moonlight, looking at the two corpses digging the boat there, and at the same time, the sound of knocking came, and Liu Yuanhua's wife's scalp was numb.

After more than ten minutes, a hole was finally carved out of the bottom of the ship. Liu Yuanhua slowly rowed the boat and headed towards the center of the river.

This reminded her of what Liu Cong had said. Sure enough, not far from the stone pillar, Liu Yuanhua sank in with the boat. As the vortex gradually decreased, his figure disappeared completely.

Liu Yuanshuang didn't follow into the water, he stood there like a wooden pillar with his face facing the direction of the stone pillar.

Liu Yuanhua's wife waited for more than an hour, but Liu Yuanshuang did not move.

Only then did she think of finding someone to help, stumbled to Liu Dehai's house, and told him what had happened.

Liu Dehai grabbed his face with both hands, he was about to collapse. Although most of his life has been talking in the village, he has never encountered such a situation.

The five handprints were indeed right, and the sons lost their lives one after another, and there was no room for recovery.

Like an angry beast, he got up from the ground with a thud and said, "We'll go and get out the corpses at dawn, and we'll get out of theirs anyway!" ”

By this time, he had already found a manpower. He found five people who were the best in the water.

They all live on the edge of the Liao River, and the water nature is one of the best, and some people even make a living by fishing for corpses, and everyone calls them water ghosts.

No matter how big the whirlpool is, it can't stop them, and with their help, Liu Dehai still has a lot of confidence in his heart.

It was finally dawn, and everyone in the village was at the river.

I was surprised to find that Cao Xi also came. She was still wearing a long red dress, which looked very conspicuous in the crowd.

I walked up to her, greeted her, and asked, "Why are you here too?" ”

Cao Xi looked coldly at Liu Dehai's family who were busy in front of the crowd, and said in a low voice, "I want to see with my own eyes how they died." ”

In my opinion, Cao Xi seems to have an irresolvable hatred with the Liu family.

I only know that although the Liu family is very bad to the Cao family, it has not reached this level. I don't know why Cao Xi targeted them like this.

I whispered, "What the hell did they do?" Make you hate them like that? ”

Cao Xi gritted his teeth and said, "You don't know, what heinous things they did behind their backs. Today retribution has finally fallen on them. ”

Chen Bo stood in front of the crowd with a calm face. Although he had a very unpleasant quarrel with Liu Dehai, he knew very well in his heart that this matter was related to the survival of the whole village, and of course he couldn't stand idly by.

Five people and five boats have been neatly parked by the river. In front of the villagers, they all looked arrogant.

Although everyone is begging for a living in the water, Liu Dehai invited them at a high price, which shows that they are better than the people in the village in every aspect.

Especially among them, there was a middle-aged man in his fifties.

His name is He Quan, and he is very famous in the nearby village. His face is dark, which is the most obvious sign of a person who lives on the water all year round.

Due to the perennial exposure to the wind and sun, his skin is particularly dark. Especially often underwater, he has a layer of rust on his body.

He looked thin and thin, but his body was unusually strong. He wore a close-fitting black tights with a dagger more than half a foot long stuck in his belt.

It is said that the dagger was fed with the blood of a black dog, and it has a strong ability to ward off evil spirits. The reason why he can become the most famous water ghost in the neighborhood is inseparable from his dagger.

In his opinion, no matter what kind of corpse he is, he can't be bothered. Even the floating corpse that his grandfather was very afraid of, he wouldn't look at it.

Although he is the most famous, the others are not to be outdone, and they hold their breath as soon as they appear.

Liu Dehai also made a lot of money, and told them that if he got a corpse, he could get a reward of 100,000 yuan.

They all knew that the three sons of the Liu family had sunk into the water near the stone pillar. If you can catch three of them at the same time, you will really make a fortune.

Liu Dehai told them a few words, and finally said, "Everyone can do it!" ”

Hearing his words, they rowed the boat together. Like arrows, the ship rowed towards the pillar.

Whoever gets there first will have an advantage and a better chance of being rewarded.

Among them, He Quan was the most experienced, and he rowed unhurriedly, seemingly not in a hurry. Seeing the other boats row past him one by one, he fell to the end.

The first man to paddle near the whirlpool stopped the boat, and he frowned as he looked at the swarthy whirlpool in the distance.

Although the reward looks very attractive, they also know that the water here is extremely dangerous, and they are trading their lives for the reward.

Although everyone was in a hurry, they stopped almost at the same time when they arrived not far from the whirlpool.

Of course, they were not convinced, and finally one of them could not bear it anymore and jumped from the boat into the water.

He was like a big fish, his body entered the water, splashed only a little, and dived straight underwater.

These people are very good at ventilating in the water, and even if they stay underwater for half an hour, they can't stop them.

Seeing that someone was the first to enter the water, some people jumped down one after another. In the end, only He Quan and a middle-aged man in his forties remained on the ship.

The man had a long scar on his face, as if he had been scratched by something.

The scar stretched from his forehead to the corners of his mouth, like a long centipede across his face, and it was extremely scary to look at.

He squinted his eyes and looked at He Quan next to him. He Quan didn't even look at him, he took out a cigarette, lit it casually, and smoked it.

It feels like he's not here to fish up corpses at all, it's more like he's here to see the fun.

The boat floated and sank on the water, and only the rumbling of the whirlpool could be heard.

The people on the shore craned their necks and looked in the direction of the stone pillars. Especially Liu Dehai, his expression was extremely solemn.

Uncle Chen retreated to my side and said, "I hope they can succeed, and maybe the people in the village will escape this fate." ”

Before I could speak, Cao Xi said disdainfully, "Dream, it's simply impossible." Of those present, only one person could do it. Others go down and die. ”

With that, she squinted at me.

Of course, Uncle Chen understood the meaning of her words, he grew up watching Cao Xi, so he was naturally very familiar with her.

Uncle Chen said in a low voice, "It's better not to go until the last resort." The fate of Shen Jiazu is an example. ”

I understood what they meant. At the beginning, my grandfather didn't let me get close to Liaohe, because he didn't want me to follow in their footsteps.

The group stopped talking, their eyes fixed on the whirlpool.

After nearly half an hour, there was still no movement there, and the people under the water seemed to have evaporated.

He Quan and Scarface were very calm, and they looked at the water unhurriedly.

Someone finally poked his head out of the water, and he swam to the boat in a hurry.

His hands were empty, and he didn't even find a body. The expression on his face was very nervous, as if something was chasing him from behind.
