Chapter 45: The Yellow River Affair (2)
"Huh?"
The old village chief didn't understand what the second uncle was talking about, so he couldn't help but ask.
The second uncle hurriedly shook his head, and then asked the village chief, "So, where is that jade coffin now?" ”
The old village chief took a sip of water and continued: "We have already sent it into the river again!" The patriarch said that the river god Niangniang is the god in the water and cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time, which is a big disrespect! So, he asked someone to send it back to the Yellow River. ”
Hearing this, the second uncle's face changed!
Just as he was about to speak, the village chief said slowly: "However, that jade coffin seems to be really spiritual!" Coming back to the dam every two years! It seems to be taking care of the villagers of our wind chime village! ”
Hearing this, the second uncle hurriedly spoke: "What you said is true?" Does it pop up here every two years? ”
The village chief nodded and said, "Then can I still lie to you?" I'll see, it's not long before the jade coffin appears! ”
Hearing the village chief say this, the second uncle was excited: "It's okay! Then let's stay here and wait for a while! ”
Looking at the second uncle's reaction, the village chief couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Looking at your appearance, it seems that you care a lot about that jade coffin!" You don't know something, do you? ”
Qiao Fat Man hurriedly played the round and said, "What do we know when we first arrive?" If you really know, you don't need to bother the village chief to tell us so much! Right! We've just never seen anything so bizarre before, and we want to see it for ourselves, and it's a long time to see! ”
The village chief nodded and said, "Okay! If you don't dislike our village, the shabby and poor hospitality of coarse tea and light meals. You can stay as long as you want! ”
I smiled: "Village Chief, what are you talking about?" We're embarrassed to bother you! Oh, by the way, after talking for a long time, you haven't said why the people in the village are so abnormal? ”
Hearing my question, the village chief said, "Didn't I say it before?" Due to the topography of Longling this time, many things at the bottom of the river will be washed up. And some time ago, a coffin was washed up from the river to the shore.
To say that coffin, it is really very evil! It's all very black! At night, if you don't look closely, you won't be able to tell if it exists! What's more, with the appearance of the coffin, everyone also found that there were two corpses, a man and a woman, lying on both sides of the coffin! And they are wearing the costumes of the Qing Dynasty in ancient times, and they also bring a lot of gold and silver jewelry on their bodies. It's as if the two of them are taking care of the coffin!
The old people in the village said that this matter was too evil! So, there is no rash action! After going back and forth, this matter was spread. Some ruffians from other villages threw their minds on the coffin.
So, they contacted a gangster in our village who didn't do his job, Ergouzi!
Several people discussed together to prepare to get some advantage from the two corpses. However, I don't know what happened that night. Just as we were all asleep, suddenly, we were woken up by several heart-rending screams! By the time we all rushed to the coffin, all the rest of us were dead, except for the second dog! Only the two dogs were lying on the ground alone, shouting and screaming. Everyone came up to talk to him, but he ignored anyone.
Everyone really had no choice but to carry him back.
Soon after returning to the village, Ergouzi began to speak. But we didn't understand what he was saying! However, we can clearly hear that the voice is not Ergouzi's own voice at all! Obviously, it was the hoarse voice of an old man!
Later, after the well-informed old patriarch learned about this, he said that the two dogs had fallen into evil. Need to find someone to exorcise evil spirits! However, there are no capable people in these ten miles and eight towns who understand this aspect at all.
In the end, the old patriarch could only ask someone to carry the two dogs into the ancestral hall, hoping that the old ancestors could bless him to escape this catastrophe. However, as time passed, the people in the village found that Ergouzi showed no signs of improvement. Not only that, but the situation is getting worse!
The skin on the second dog began to fester, and it began to fester, and it became spotted! And it also emits a disgusting stench!
The older generation said he had the plague! It's going to die! Moreover, it is contagious! Everyone suggested that Ergouzi be sent out of the village and left to fend for himself. However, the old patriarch and I repeatedly insisted that he be kept. After all, he's also a member of our family!
Later, it became what you see now! Everyone in the village is in danger, and they don't even dare to go out! ”
Hearing the village chief say this, the second uncle fell into deep thought.
The fat man on the side couldn't help but say, "Have you found a problem?" ”
Hearing his words, I was a little curious: "What? What did you find? ”
Qiao Fatzi said seriously: "The name Ergouzi seems to be very popular!" That's what people call it in almost every village! It's better than the nine-year compulsory education popularization! ”
After hearing his words, I couldn't help but roll my eyes. The heart said: When has this been, he is still joking here!
While we were talking, the village chief's son returned.
The village chief's son is a strong man in his early thirties! Big shoulders and round waist! He is a famous boatman in the village. Don't look at the turbulent waves and turbulent water on the Yellow River. However, in his eyes, it was like walking on the ground!
As soon as he saw us, the village chief's son looked at the village chief suspiciously. Ask: "Dad, are they ......?"
The village chief introduced us: "They are an expedition sent by the government!" It's in charge of our village! ”
As he spoke, he introduced us to his son: "This is my son, Deng Hu!" I also have a daughter named Xiaofeng! Their mother died young, and we were the only family of three. ”
After listening to the old village chief's words, I nodded. Compared to the head of Temple Village, his luck is good! Although it was also the early death of his wife. However, there are a pair of children by his side!
Before you know it, it's getting dark.
The second uncle proposed to go and see the one named Ergouzi. The village chief waved his hand and said, "There is a rule in our village. When it gets dark, you can't go out. If you want to go to the ancestral hall, you must get the consent of the old patriarch. And the old patriarch and his family lived relatively far away. I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to go back and forth! Let's go back to Longling, the night is not peaceful! Let's go again tomorrow morning! ”
Hearing what the village chief said, the second uncle could only nod slightly and didn't say anything more.
After a while, the village chief's daughter, Xiaofeng, came back. After seeing us, I was also puzzled. Obviously, it seems that no outsiders have been in their village for a long time!
However, Xiaofeng is a very talkative girl. It's only a moment of effort, and it's already mingling with us.
The village chief's son stir-fried a few dishes for us. Then, a few of us sat down at the table to eat and talk.
The second uncle is taciturn, and he rarely speaks when he doesn't encounter serious things. I was hungry for a long time, and I was only interested in eating. However, Qiao Fatzi and Tang Xiao talked and laughed with the village chief.
If you want to talk about the amount of alcohol that Qiao fat man drinks, it is definitely not covered! Don't look at the village chief's son, who is five big and three thick, after a few rounds, he has been irritated by Qiao Fatzi and is unable to speak clearly.
And Xiaofeng was praising her beauty with a strong smile on the side, asking her the key to makeup.
After I had eaten and drunk my fill, a question suddenly occurred to me. couldn't help but ask Xiaofeng: "By the way, your traffic here is too inconvenient!" We waited for hours on the way to the bus and didn't wait for the bus. How often do you have buses here? ”
As soon as I said this, the village chief's family was stunned! No one spoke, and the whole room fell silent in an instant!
I was taken aback by the sudden silence!
"How...... What's wrong? Am I saying something wrong? ”
In the end, it was the village chief who sighed and said, "Since you have asked about this matter, then I will not hide it from you." ”
Hearing the village chief say this, I glanced at Qiao Fatzi. The heart said, "What's the matter?" Could it be that this village is weird and even has a problem with buses?
As if to confirm my thoughts, the village chief said slowly: "Originally, this road in our village was opened to traffic a few years ago. Although our village is a terminal station, there are not many people left every time the bus comes to us. However, there are still three times a day: morning, noon and evening, and there are cars coming.
However, it wasn't until one night a year ago that something went wrong with the bus!
That night, I don't know what happened, the bus inexplicably rushed down the road and crashed into the embankment of the Yellow River. There were more than 20 people in the whole car, except for the driver, and none of them were spared! At that time, the government immediately sent people down to investigate the matter. Then, he came to us again and asked some questions.
At the end of a drink, a young man in charge of investigating the incident told us what had happened.
After the car accident, the driver was rushed to the hospital in time. After some rescue, a life was finally saved. Later, the person in charge of investigating the incident found him and learned from him that the driver had been feeling restless all the time on the night of the accident! It always feels like something is going to happen!
And the situation that night also made him a little confused! In the past, when his car drove to the entrance of our Fengjing Village, there were no passengers in the car. However, no one got out of the car that day. It's as if their destination hasn't arrived yet!
That's weird! Do they want to sit back again?
