"Ahh Jiang Qiao let out an exclamation, she turned her head to look at Jiang Li, and at some point, Jiang Li's attention shifted from coffee to her conversation with the old man.

The old man was satisfied to see Jiang Qiao's frightened expression, he had told others more than once as a story about this past, but later, he was afraid that it would affect the business, and the people who knew it had moved away, so he gradually stopped talking. This time, he mentioned the dusty past again, and the tragic picture of that year was still deeply impressed in his mind.

"Everyone found that the smell was coming from the river, and it seemed that something was blocking the river, because it was so weird, so everyone covered their noses and watched the excitement on the riverbank. The unmoving blood was calm on the surface, but someone noticed that there were a few round things in the area that was almost in the eye of the river, floating up and down.

Someone took a bamboo pole and picked it, in fact, everyone thought it was a rotten watermelon or something that was thrown into the river, but when I thought of a bamboo pole, one of the round things rolled a few times, revealing black hair, and everyone found out that it was a human head!

Everyone panicked, do you think, this almost 100-meter-long section of the river is dyed red, how many people must be calm here. Soon, the police came. Although they blocked both sides at the time, our house was on the bank of the river. At that time, I was also bold and secretly looked at the door.

And guess what, the police fished up a total of 9 corpses, and I will never forget that situation in my life.

Those corpses must have washed down from upstream, and it had been a few rainstorms before, and it was these corpses that blocked the river. Oh, I don't know how long I soaked in this river, it was all rotten and deformed, and when they fished it they used a net, squeezing, foaming at the white foam and carrying carrion, it made me sick.

The most important thing is that the nine corpses are all headless, and those heads have to be fished out separately. One of the bubbles was so bad that the eyeballs were soaked out, and there was only a trace of flesh left, half-drooping outside the eye socket. There's a little fish bouncing in that eye socket. ”

Jiang Qiao heard a burst of gastric juice upwell, and his hands and feet were cold. She turned her head to look at Jiang Li, still looking normal.

The old man continued: "After tossing and turning all day, my noodle shop couldn't open, and in the end I only got 9 bodies and 8 heads, and I couldn't find one head. Because it was getting dark, the police also withdrew first, presumably planning to come tomorrow.

As a result, something strange happened that night.

I remember it was the middle of the night, and I don't know what time it was, but I slept anyway and was suddenly woken up by crying. At that time, my wife was still there, and I pushed her and asked her if she had heard. The events of the day were so terrible that when I heard the cry, I thought it had something to do with the corpse of the day. My wife said she heard it too, and told me to take a look. I had no choice but to go out and take a look.

I looked through the crack in the door, but I didn't expect it to be very bright outside, so I dared to go out and take a look. Hey, guess what, the whole river is on fire.

But it's not like a real fire, the fire has no temperature, how hot it must be in the summer at that time, as soon as I went out, I was shivering from the cold, I could see the white breath exhaled from my mouth, you know, we in the south even winter may not be able to do this. Moreover, the fire was not red, it was emitting white light, but the heart of the fire was green and faint, like the legendary ghost fire. When I was a kid, I saw ghost fires in the countryside, and that's what it looked like.

It freaks the hell out of me, you think, this eerie ghost fire burning all over the river, what a scene it is. I was so frightened that I ran home, and I didn't dare to close my eyes in the middle of the night.

The next day, the river turned red again, and it was all open to the river, and it turned red, and only our section was red. Everybody's talking, and a lot of people saw that last night. And, I've heard ... ”

Speaking of this, the old man stopped and took a sip of tea slowly, which made Jiang Qiao anxious, it was a pity that the old man didn't want to be a storyteller. Talking about a piece of news with ups and downs, climaxes and climaxes, Jiang Qiao is afraid and wants to listen to it, which is more exciting than watching a horror movie.

"Tell me, what have you heard?" Jiang Qiao hurriedly urged, and quickly poured him another cup of tea.

The old man hadn't told this story to anyone for a long time, and when he saw Jiang Qiao listening to it so seriously, he couldn't help but feel a little proud, took a sip of tea, and continued: "At that time, many people were like me, either woken up by crying, or attracted by the light outside. A lot of people went out to take a look.

I've heard of a guy who saw something different. Didn't you say that there was this ghost fire burning on the surface of the river, and the light of the fire was so bright that it could illuminate the bottom of the river, and the man said that he saw that in the firelight, there were nine shadows on the opposite wall, and those shadows had no heads, but they were holding heads in their hands, and they walked forward one after another, and then the shadows disappeared. The last one, the headless shadow did not hold the head in his hand, nor did it disappear, but spun in circles.

"This... It's fake. Jiang Qiao couldn't believe it.

"I didn't believe it, but you think, apart from me and the police, who knows how many corpses there are in the river, and the corpses are placed in the open space next to my noodle shop, surrounded by the police, and no one can see them. The most important thing is that there is a head that did not find this matter, when it was almost dark, I heard the policeman who led the team and I came to our house to borrow a toilet, and I called in the toilet, and I also heard him say that he had already explained this matter and was not allowed to disclose half of it to the public. If he made it up blindly, how could he make it up so accurately. ”

Seeing that Jiang Qiao didn't believe it, the old man hurriedly explained. Listening to him say this, it really doesn't look like someone is making up nonsense. Jiang Qiao only felt a chill all over her body, from the cold back bone to the back of her head, she looked at the other side of the river with palpitations, the original comfort had long disappeared without a trace, and she only felt that it was eerie everywhere.

The old man looked at Jiang Qiao's appearance and said with a smile: "Don't look at it, all the buildings on both sides of the river have been demolished at that time." These are all new. ”

"And then." Jiang Qiao asked.

"Later, until the end, I didn't find the head, but the river was not very peaceful, and no one dared to eat the fish in the river anyway, and if it rained, the next day the river would turn red and smelly. It is also rumored that at night he would see a headless man by the river and ask people everywhere where his head was. Everyone couldn't stand it anymore and went to the government to react together. The government decided to rectify the whole river.

"At first, I didn't plan to demolish both sides of the river, but the project went wrong again at the beginning."
