All Chapters_Chapter 67 Mother and Son Love: Floating Corpses

I'm convinced that this place must have been tampered with. Or maybe at some point I don't know, we've fallen into a trap, anyway, now that the game has started, it's time to follow the rules.

We walked into the intersection, probably because of the trees on both sides, and the road was a little colder than outside. Zhang Aiai looked at the surrounding scene with interest, and she asked, "I heard that there are ice lanterns, is it time to see ice lanterns?" ”

I shook my head and said, "I don't know anything about ice lanterns, we can ask when things are done." ”

After walking down a few hundred meters, there was a three-way crossing, I asked Jiang Wei if he was familiar with the three-way crossing, he nodded very hard, and then went in to the left.

On the left side of the road, there is a pile of pine towers, which are awe-inspiringly high. There was no wind today, but it was also a little swaying, Sun Qing sighed: "When you wait for winter, wear pimple shoes, walk in a piece of snow, and take a step into it, it must feel very comfortable." ”

"But you're a ghost now, how can you get caught in your footsteps?" Xiaoqing asked.

Sun Qing thought about it too, and touched the back of his head embarrassedly.

"That's not the pimple shoes you think, maybe there are, but it's mostly cloth, otherwise the cowhide is too hard. When the old Northeast people made shoes, they cut the rags, stacked them layer after layer, and sewed them into the soles. It's also much more comfortable to wear warmly. I laughed.

"So much attention to a shoe?" Sun Qing was surprised.

I said, "I really need to pay attention to this, after all, it is in the north now, and if some details are not handled well, it may affect this problem." In fact, all I know about this place in the Little Khing'an Mountains is some small things, logging yards and the like. Choose a suitable place, find someone to climb up first, cut down the branches on it, otherwise it will fall down and crush the small tree next to it, and then start cutting. When you get off work, or when you go to work, walk on the road and look at the ground, maybe pick up a lion's mane mushroom. By the way, some workers will put a set before going to work, and when they go to see it after work, they may be able to put a hare or pheasant. If you're lucky, you can get a roe deer. ”

"Is roe deer delicious?" Xiaoqing asked weakly.

I shook my head and said, "The skin of the roe deer is used to make clothes, and the meat of the roe deer is not easy to sell, so no one eats it." People who know how to cook it put more lard to fry, and when it is served, the meat is still delicious. ”

Maybe Jiang Wei was in a better mood because he had a clue, he turned his head and began to talk to me with interest: "You are a native of Wenzhou, right?" ”

"Yes, more locals than locals, from the mountains." I nodded.

He said appreciatively: "As the old saying goes, how can you know so much about Xiao Xing'anling, a southern barbarian. It's not that you're wrong, but since I saw you yesterday, I felt that you didn't know what you were thinking in your head, so first tell the reason why others chose Xiaoxinganling, and there were conjectures just now after breakfast. Now when I hear you talk about Xiaoxinganling, I don't think of the Northeast people talking about things, do you know how it feels? ”

I laughed and said, "You think about a group of lumber yard workers sitting around after work rolling toad cigarettes and listening to the old workers, right?" ”

"High." Jiang Wei said with a thumbs up.

Zhang Aiai muttered again: "It's really pouring seafood? ”

"It's a running river." I said helplessly.

Jiang Wei opened his mouth at this time: "Go a hundred meters ahead, if it is really as I remember, there will be a hut." The hut was built by the villagers in the mountains, because the mountain road is difficult to walk, sometimes it may rain, there is no shop in front of the village, and it is also a place to rest. ”

"Then hurry up and go have a look." I said.

We hurriedly walked a few steps, and a small hill appeared in front of us, and Jiang Wei said that the hut was just behind the small hill. After crossing over, everyone was stunned.

There is a hut here, but the problem is ...... Behind the hut, there was a big river, and there was no road ahead of us. Jiang Wei frowned and muttered: "It's strange, I remember that there is no such river, but the road opposite is similar to the road in my hometown." ”

"There is no doubt that the river is a test ......," I said, "and take a look at the hut." ”

Everyone said yes, the door of this hut was hidden. When I walked in the door, I smelled an uncomfortable smell, and I saw a small bed in the corner of the room, and an old man was lying on the bed, covered with a torn quilt, which was not enough, and his body was still shivering.

I frowned, what do you mean by the appearance of an old man?

The old man's complexion was very poor, his face was yellow, his hair was gray and messy, probably because he had not washed his hair for a long time, and many of his hair was still sticking together. The most uncomfortable thing is that this old man is so thin that he is simply skinny.

I stepped forward and asked the old man with concern, "Old man, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Head ......" The old man said bitterly, regardless of me being a stranger, "Head ...... Ahem, it hurts a lot. ”

Brain pain?

Zhang Aiai pulled me at this time, and she whispered: "Does this old man have anything to do with saving Jiang Wei's mother?" ”

I shook my head and said, "I don't know, but it's probably a clue, and you can't be a person who dies without help." ”

I found two chopsticks in my room and said to the old man, "Open your mouth, remember not to move." ”

He obediently opened his mouth, and I pressed his tongue down with chopsticks and shone it with a flashlight by the way. His throat was red and he had some phlegm. I touched his head again, and it wasn't hot.

"Add a ......cold to the fire," I put the chopsticks on the table, frowned, and said, "Let the old man be comfortable first, his head will hurt, it should be due to a cold on the one hand, and a cough on the other." ”

"What about cough syrup?" Zhang Aiai asked.

I shook my head, where to get cough syrup now, and that thing wasn't too useful. I looked around, and if this was a test given to us by the mastermind behind the scenes, I guess the old man was the biggest clue. Thinking of this, I hurriedly asked, "Old man, do you have a boat?" ”

"Yes...... At the back of the room, but I'm going to use ......," he paused, and then added, "but I'm not feeling well." ”

I understand.

There are two ways to unfold before us, either to snatch the old man's boat and use it, or to help him and let him take the initiative to give it to us. If you choose both methods, there will definitely be two results.

I sighed, and according to the attitude of the man behind the scenes, he probably preferred that we could snatch the ship. But this is not my character, I searched in the room, finally found a white porcelain cup, and began to boil hot water again. Luckily, I also found a packet of rock candy on the stove where I was cooking.

When the hot water was boiling, I put the rock candy in it, brought it to the old man, helped him up and took a sip, and said gently: "Old man, are you comfortable?" ”

"Hmm......" he said weakly.

"We want to borrow the boat from you, can we borrow it?" I smiled and said, "I'll give it back to you tomorrow at most." ”

The old man thought for a moment, and then said, "Do you know how to rub tobacco?" ”

"It has to be." I said.

"Help me rub the bag of tobacco, and I'll lend you."

That's fine, I looked in the room, and sure enough, there was a smoking gun hanging on the wall, and there were two large pieces of tobacco next to it, so I took it and squatted at the door to rub it patiently. In order to be in a hurry, several of them also helped me rub tobacco together. Zhang Aiai and Xiaoqing didn't know how to do it, so I patiently taught them how to get it.

After rubbing, the old man finally agreed to lend us the boat. The boat was at the back of the house, it was a small boat, and we pushed it to the shore, and I said, "Be careful, the people behind it must be trying me to do something excessive, but I didn't live up to his expectations." Also, you have to write down every detail I did before. ”

"Write it down?" Sun Qing asked suspiciously.

"It's all about the details, and it's better to be careful."

With that, I pushed the boat over the river, and the boat rocked a little as it entered the river. I got on the boat, and they hurried on.

Since the ghost has no weight, crossing the river this time is simple. Sun Qing and Jiang Wei rowed together, but only I was the one who carried the weight, and the boat roared forward on the river.

The river is about 30 meters wide, and the current is not fast, after all, we are already the most downhill, and the current is not fast.

I looked at the river and muttered, "There's a problem." ”

"What's wrong?" Zhang Aiai hurriedly asked.

I pointed ahead and whispered, "Look." ”

About a dozen meters in front of us, a white object suddenly appeared on the surface of the river. The thing was white and floated a small part of the water.

It's a floating corpse!

His skin had already been blistered and wrinkled, and although it was white, his body was a little purple. Suddenly, the floating corpse held on and disappeared.

"Are you leaving?" Xiaoqing asked scaredly.

I shook my head and said, "No, if nothing else, I guess a pair of hands will come out of the water in the next moment." ”

"Whoa!"

As soon as I finished speaking, five meters in front of us, there were actually hands coming out of the water, straight and straight, and the body of the corpse could not be seen. The corpse walked towards us as if it were walking underwater.

Mori Bai's hand is getting closer and closer to us.

"Why would you guess?" Jiang Wei said in a panic.

I smiled wryly: "This is a legend in the Yellow River area, this kind of floating corpse is very resentful, and will drag the boat below and not let the boat leave. Generally, when this happens, the people on the ship will throw the goods down one by one, and will not let go of the ship until the floating corpse is satisfied. And now it's clear that what he wants is for us to jump ourselves. ”

"My question is, why would you guess?" Jiang Wei asked again.

"I guess I annoyed the people behind it......" I sighed, "he wanted me to be a villain to increase the entertainment, but I chose to refuse." Now he thinks I know a lot of things, and he wants to test me with this. Beating my strengths will make him feel happy. ”

Xiaoqing swallowed, and she muttered, "Then what will happen to us if we encounter something that you don't know?" ”

I smiled wryly, "What else can I do?" That's naturally nine deaths, don't say it, everyone hold on to the boat, and when he holds the boat for a while, the boat will definitely shake. ”

They hurriedly grabbed the boat, and so did I. Suddenly, with a thud, the boat was seized by the floating corpse, and just as I had expected, the whole hull shook violently at first, causing us to almost fall, and then quickly calmed down.

Suddenly, the ship seemed to freeze on the surface of the river, motionless.

At this time, I seemed to have become the backbone of everyone, Sun Qing asked me: "I went down to fight with him, what do you think?" It's just a test for you, and the difficulties encountered won't be too strong, I should be able to fight hard. ”

I shook my head and said, "The most terrible thing is the unknown, what is under the water, none of us know, don't rush down." So let's hold your feet, and you poke your head down to see what it is. ”

Sun Qing said yes, and lay down on the side of the boat, poking his head down, while we grabbed his legs.

He dived his head into the water, then quickly backed up and shook the splash hard. At this time, I noticed that his face was very pale and a little trembling.

"What's wrong? What do you see underwater? I asked, confused.

Sun Qing swallowed his saliva, gritted his teeth and said, "I saw it...... You. ”
