The tiger's head is gone.

I suddenly remembered the fish with human heads on their heads, and I felt a pang of hatred in my heart.

It must have been those strange things that took the tiger's head away.

The old man used his last strength to copy the tiger into the boat, and immediately set up the boat and ran to the shore, and as soon as I turned my head, I saw a black mass coming out of the big nest, rushing towards us, very large and very frightening.

The old man seemed to know what it was, and he held the boat in a muffled voice, and hurried to the shore one by one, and when he arrived, he pushed me directly to the shore, picked up the tiger's body, threw it on the shore, and jumped on it with the big black dog in his arms, and then kicked the boat.

The big rooster flicked along with the boat and the lantern into the middle of the canal.

Suddenly, the whole middle of the canal went up, and I was so frightened that I could not speak, except for the terrible crow of the big rooster. And the ship capsized.

The old man dragged the tiger's body and threw it on the embankment, and I stood on the embankment, looked into the water, and finally saw clearly in a daze, our boat was reversed, covered with something, which was about the size of a boat, boxy.

It's a huge coffin!

My heart trembled, and the river ...... In that big nest, a movable coffin was drilled!

It didn't take long for the canal to calm again, our boat was probably sinking to the bottom, the coffin was gone, and the big nest was still sucking water from the bottom.

I didn't dare ask the old man what it was, and the old man didn't say.

It didn't take long for Huzi and his mother to lead people to the side of the embankment, and shouted with the old man on both sides of the canal.

The old man asked them to find a boatman and pick them up, but at night, the bodies were still transported, and even if it was a neighbor's relationship, none of the boatmen agreed to go out of the boat.

It wasn't until dawn that Huzi and his mother borrowed a boat from the team next door and drove us over.

Everyone soon learned what was going on in the big nest in the canal at night, starting with the corpse of the tiger and then talking about the strange noise that everyone heard when they were sleeping.

Strangely, my mother did not come to me in the morning, so I had to follow the old man back to his mud house.

I slept in his bed until the afternoon, and when I woke up, the old man had just buried the big black dog, and several people came to the yard, and one of them was the captain of our team, who was a short and fat man, and he was very annoying. I've seen a few people next to me, who seem to be the captains of our teams.

I was standing at the door and heard the captain of our team, the short and fat man named Li Guangtian, pointing at the old man's nose and scolding: "Wang Xiguang, Wang Xiguang, how many times have I told you, why did you start making trouble again?" Yes? Now that you've made a fuss about the big nest again, what are we going to do in the future? Do you have to take more than 1,000 lives from our seven brigades to the funeral with you!? ”

Several captains next to him immediately echoed their words, with a look of indignation.

I was confused, could it be that the coffin I saw yesterday was an amazing thing?

"You baby, why are you here?"

After Captain Li Guangtian finished scolding the old man, he saw me standing at the door of the house, ready to pull his anger on me.

I shrank my neck in fright, turned my head and ran into the house, but who knew that Captain Li Guangtian Li immediately followed, grabbed my arm, and snapped at my buttocks: "Say, did you go swimming with Huzi yesterday?" ”

I was so frightened that I trembled and didn't dare say a word.

"Let go of that baby."

The old man rushed in the next step and grabbed Captain Li Guangtian's shoulder, his face a little serious.

Captain Li Guangtian was stunned, in the team, no one dared to speak to him so loudly, and his face suddenly sank: "Wang Xiguang, you are the opposite today, right?" In the first place, if I hadn't been soft-hearted and let you move to this place, do you think you would still be alive now? Are you going to bite me back now? You tell you, these bulls, ghosts, snakes, gods, and messes you got are ......"

Before Li Guangtian's words could speak, the old man immediately snorted coldly, and directly interrupted Li Guangtian's words: "Do you still want to live?" ”

A simple sentence actually made Li Guangtian stunned for an instant, and his face showed deep fear.

"If you don't want to die, just leave here obediently, and I'll make the decision about this baby. I've discussed it with his parents, and I can't help you interfere! ”

"You!"

Li Guangtian was so angry by the old man's words that his whole body trembled, raised his hand and pointed at the old man's nose, and was speechless for a long time, until his face was red, and then he squeezed out a sentence: "You still don't take me as the captain in your eyes!" ”

"Big fart captain, when I saved your father's life, you were still playing with mud next to you!"

The old man suddenly shouted, and Li Guangtian was stunned.

"Good, good, good! You're amazing, I'll give you three days, if you don't get this matter done, don't blame me for taking you under the knife when the time comes! ”

Li Guangtian glared at the old man Wang Xiguang viciously, turned his head and left.

Watching Li Guangtian leave the courtyard angrily with the rest of the captains, my heart suddenly relaxed, my eyes turned red, and I almost cried.

The old man stretched out his hand, scooped me into his arms, gently rubbed my head with his rough hand, and whispered in his mouth: "Baby, blame you for being born with this kind of life......

At that time, I was also thirteen or fourteen years old, and I said that I was sensible and sensible, and I was not sensible when I said that I was not sensible. After listening to the old man babble about everything to me, I understood.

The old man was a corpse digger, who used to work near the Yangtze River, and was driven to my hometown.

There are many ways to die, and those who fall into the water and die must be done by the corpse collector. The person who died in the river was unjustly killed, and he had a grudge, and he had to pull someone else to die with him, so that he could feel at ease. People who are resentful, the corpses do not decay, and they patrol the rivers all year round, looking for innocent people who can be harmed. Therefore, the corpse harvesting craftsman is doing excessive work, exceeding the souls of those who died in the river, so that they can die with peace of mind, so the corpse is not just as simple as fishing the corpse out of the water.

There is a saying among the corpse diggers, it is called a man lying on his back and a woman lying down, because the pelvic structure of a man and a woman is different, and when a drowned person sinks for two or three days, his body will swell and float up, and it is a man who floats up on his back, and a woman who floats face down.

Of course, there are exceptions here, that is, people who are too disgruntled, will be vertical in the water, and floating in the water along the river will look like walking in the river.

If you want to do a line, you will have to go into the water often and deal with the corpses in the water, which will inevitably be contaminated with corpse gas. Therefore, to do this line, you must meet three conditions, the first is the whole water life, the five elements belong to water, the second name is water, the physique is yin, and the third is to grow near the water and be familiar with the water. Otherwise, you will definitely die if you do a line. I am a full water life, growing by the water, I don't know who gave me my name, called Li Jinshui, Jin Shengshui, which is equivalent to two water characters in the name, as for my physique, it is the body of extreme yin, otherwise I will not always see people under the water, the old man said that I am born with the eye of heaven, can see all the filth under the water.

After hearing this, I knew that the old man wanted to take me as an apprentice, but I didn't want to do this kind of scary work at all, I just wanted to go home, but the old man told me that my mother had agreed, and I was the only one in our neighborhood who met the three harsh conditions, and the old man was dying, and if he couldn't find a successor, the things in the canal would definitely kill everyone in the villages around us.

When I heard that so many people were going to die, I began to be a little scared, it didn't matter to me that other people died, but I didn't want my mother to die.

Seeing that I was still hesitating, the old man simply began to scare me and said, if I don't do this, we will all die, I will die, my mother will die, everyone I know, my little friends, will die, and after they die, they will turn into ghosts to come to me for revenge, I was directly frightened by the old man and cried out, and finally agreed in fear.

There are three things that the corpse digger must have, the first is the big rooster, and the second is the big black dog, I have talked about the role of these two things before, so I won't go into details, just talk about the third thing. When he showed me the third thing, the old man took me into the courtyard and pointed to the long bamboo pole in his yard.

The bamboo pole was very long, like a flagpole in our school, and a bronze mirror hung from the top of the pole, and a red rope was tied under the mirror.

Every time the corpse collector comes back from the river, he has to look at this bronze mirror from a distance, if the mirror is clean, then it doesn't matter, if there is blood on his body or face in the mirror, then he has committed the evil in the river, or has been targeted by the things in the river. At this time, you must hurry back, sacrifice cattle at the place where the accident happened before, use yellow rice to make incense, and worship three times before you can go home.

"Okay, you go look in the mirror."

The old man waved his hand.

I took a few steps back in confusion, looked up at the bronze mirror, and screamed out.

Even though it was hanging very high in the mirror, I could still see it clearly!

In the mirror, my face was covered with blood, and the blood seemed to be pouring out of my eyes, and it was flowing out one after another, and it had dyed all my clothes red!

I reached out and touched my face in a panic, then looked down at my clothes, they were clean! Nothing!

The old man immediately noticed my strange movements, and immediately stepped over to my side, and as soon as he looked up at the bronze mirror, he immediately scolded in a low voice: "It's over!" ”
