Chapter 224: Sacrifice to the River

The third uncle looked at the map, stood up and said, "The third feng shui bureau has appeared. ”

My sister and I hurriedly looked at the map, and the third uncle drew a red circle at the location of the original Jiangkou, which happened to be in a triangular position relationship with the Jiaohongshan Tunnel and Daliujiazhuang.

The third uncle said: "Qiangzi, follow me." ”

My sister hurriedly said, I'll go too.

The third uncle can smile calmly at any time: "You are gone, what should Liu Dong do?" What about the two mothers? Sisi, you stay and wait for news, and I will definitely take you when I have the opportunity in the future. ”

My sister pouted unhappily. Now that the situation is urgent, it is not the time to coax her, so my third uncle and I went out.

After the flood, there were continuous sunny days, and November was as hot as summer, and I was covered in sweat. The third uncle shook his head and said, "The sky is abnormal, we have to hurry up, I feel that something big is going to happen!" ”

I drove and spent nearly an hour on the road to Haraego. The original estuary is known to be an estuary of the Yangtze River, close to the river beach, with many characteristic embankments built, and the scenery is very good, and there are often crews here as the background to shoot TV and movies.

When we arrived, we found that the embankment by the river was full of people, and it was tightly blocked.

It took me a lot of work to find a parking space, and my third uncle and I hurriedly squeezed over to look, only to see that the river in the distance was muddy and dark yellow, and a lot of things floated down from the upstream, floating on the fairly gentle river. I can't really tell what these things are, they are big, kind of like cement bags. There were policemen and old men talking about something by the river, and these old water ghosts who had been in the river for many years shook their heads vigorously and retorted in dialects they didn't understand.

I hurriedly asked a big brother next to me what was going on, and the eldest brother said, "Do you see these things floating down, they are all floating corpses!" ”

The third uncle asked where these things came from.

The eldest brother said: "This thing is evil here, I don't know where it floated down, some people even went along the upstream of the river to see, but they couldn't find the source of the floating corpse." Everyone believes in a theory that these floating corpses are all souls sunk in the river, and they came out of the bottom of the river. He pointed to the policemen below: "Those policemen want the old men to salvage a few floating corpses, how much money can be paid, those people don't do it." The origin of these floating corpses is so evil, who dares to salvage them, how much money can be worth more than their own life. ”

At this time, there were more and more people on the embankment of the river, and it seemed that the matter of floating corpses spread very quickly, and many people came to see it.

"If you want to dig up the body, you don't have to be here, you can go downstream to intercept it." I say.

The eldest brother looked at me: "Brother, you don't know, the evil nature of this matter is here, these floating corpses have disappeared after turning the estuary of our river." It's strange that there is no downstream, and there is no shore either. It seems to have re-entered the bottom of the river. ”

At this time, there was a change in the surface of the river, and I saw a boat "da-da-da" make the sound of an engine, and drive from the shore in the direction of the floating corpse in the center of the river.

Everyone's eyes were straight, and they knew that they were going to find the corpses, so they hurriedly squeezed forward. There were several policemen standing on the boat, and it seemed that the boat was transferred by the policemen themselves.

Spectators by the river are waiting to see the big show, and the boat goes very slowly, drawing a line on the river. It took more than half an hour for the boat to reach the vicinity of the corpse, and someone on the boat stretched out a long bamboo pole with a strong interception net hanging in front of it, as if fishing for a corpse.

Everyone on the shore almost held their breath at the same time, and stretched their necks together to look, because it was too far away, the boat was as small as a matchbox, and many details were blurred.

The river suddenly became turbulent, forming many small whirlpools, and the situation was very urgent. Two more boats set off from the shore to rescue, and the whole process was like watching a movie, and the boat rescue took more than an hour. There were a lot of people gathered on the shore and tidal flats, all wanting to see what happened in the end, but there was a blockade below, and nothing could be seen.

Later, news came out that the police had actually fished out a corpse, but one of their own people had also drowned. This thing is evil, and everyone talks about it, saying that these floating corpses can't move, and even if they fish, they will exchange their lives for one life.

The third uncle pulled me to a place where no one was and said, I can basically confirm that the feng shui bureau arranged by the monk must be one in the original Jiangkou! The Feng Shui Bureau stirred up the earth's qi and the original balance of heaven and earth, which led to the appearance of floating corpses in Jiangxin. These floating corpses should have been flooded by the Yangtze River a long time ago, and they were used to sacrifice people and animals in ancient times.

I asked him what would happen if he couldn't find the feng shui bureau.

The third uncle sighed and looked at the crowd, "There will be a great river bursting its embankment and collapsing for thousands of miles, and everything will no longer exist!" ”

I wiped my cold sweat and said, "Third uncle, I think such a major event is not only our business, and we should gather fellow ...... the rivers and lakes."

The third uncle shook his head and interrupted me: "Qiangzi, you remember, in life, you don't just do things for your own interests, you must have a great justice in your heart. Although I used to be in Thailand, I also knew a lot of colleagues in China, and there is an unwritten rule in China's rivers and lakes, called the principle of proximity, if this happens on the ground near you, you have the responsibility to take action, instead of waiting for others to arrive. In this way, everyone protects their own ground and takes responsibility, and the whole environment will be better. ”

I think about it silently, it is also the same reason, I was born here, I have a special feeling for the Yangtze River, I don't want to see it tyrannical and make enemies of people, Ze country thousands of miles, countless people have lost their families...... It is my responsibility to protect my homeland and defend the Yangtze River.

I asked my third uncle how to find this feng shui bureau.

The third uncle thought for a while and said: "The turbulence of the land here, the imbalance of yin and yang, will definitely harass the people's homes, let's visit the nearby villages." ”

We drove to a nearby village. Yuanjiangkou is the transportation hub of the Yangtze River, and the nearest Yuanjiang Town is the largest township in the vicinity, with a scale of tens of thousands of people.

After visiting for a morning, there was no useful information, so I went to the restaurant to eat, and overheard such a news, saying that Yang Shenpo was going to worship the river god by the river tonight. In the past few days, there have been floating corpses in the river, and the people of the original Jiangkou are panicking, and they have spent a lot of money to invite the great fairy Yang Shenpo.

I inquired with the owner of the hotel about the specific reason, and then I learned that I had seen Mrs. Yang, and on the day the tunnel collapsed, she led a group of people to make trouble and worship the mountain god.

Wasn't she arrested, I didn't expect to be released again so soon and continue to make trouble.

As soon as I met with my third uncle, I said, "Will there be a problem with this Yang Shenpo, why is there something wrong with her?" ”

"It's hard to say now," the third uncle said, "Lady Yang looks quite famous, let's go take a look tonight." ”

After an afternoon rest in the town, it was dark and we drove to the river. The embankment is very long, and the wind is gusting at night, and there are almost no people to be seen.

As I was driving the car, I suddenly pointed to the front and said, "Third uncle, look at that!" ”

There were a lot of torches burning not far ahead, and the river breeze was blowing white curtains, and there were many people gathered there. The car was close, and we heard the sound of drums and horns from there, and we got out of the car.

This is a high cliff near the river, and not far away is the gloomy river in the moonlight. A group of people gathered here, torches were rising, and there was an old witch dancing, it was Yang Shenma.

Her two assistants, one male and one female, played a trumpet, and the other beat a waist drum, and Yang Shenpo was draped in red and hung colors all over her body, holding a small mallet, dancing and dancing.

There were more than 20 people watching the scene, and the silence could be heard by the falling needles.

My third uncle and I stood behind and watched, Mrs. Yang was really hardworking, it was very cold at night, she didn't wear much, she jumped for a while, and by the light of the fire, she could see that her head was sweating. After jumping, Yang Shenpo shook her head and began to sing the tune. The singing is quite good, but I can't understand a word. The gods harmonized with the night wind, and how far it spread out in the river, people could get goosebumps all over their bodies.

After singing, Mrs. Yang stopped, picked up the tea on the table and poured it several sips before she recovered. She said: "Old and young masters, do you know why there are so many corpses in the river? This is a catastrophe! This year, it is raining heavily and flooding, and the river god is angry, and none of us can run! When the time comes, countless people will be displaced, and their wives will be separated, I will see it sadly, today my wife and son I will go out and negotiate with Jiangshen, I would rather it blame me, and I will also use this life to prevent disasters for you! ”

Everyone present applauded.

The third uncle was behind and said softly: "This goddess has a way. ”

"Is she a bad person?" I lowered my voice.

The third uncle said: "I can't see it yet, but I have an intuition, if I want to find the feng shui bureau here, I'm afraid it will fall on her, and follow her for a while!" ”

Mrs. Yang clapped her hands, and an old man came out of the crowd, his face full of vicissitudes, and said in jerky Mandarin: "It's all ready." ”

Mrs. Yang walked down the stairs to the tidal flat by the river, everyone followed, and my third uncle and I were at the end.

When I got to the river, I saw a small wooden boat floating on the river, and a dead pig was placed on the boat. This is a whole pig, dehaired, oiled, and looks smooth and slick, with moonshine in the back.

The old captain dragged the cable and pulled the wooden boat closer, and Yang Shenpo jumped onto the boat, and the boat swayed back and forth.

She said: "I'm going to Jiangxin to throw pigs to sacrifice to Jiang, which of you will go with me?" ”

The scene was silent, there was no one, and suddenly the third uncle shouted: "He's going!" Then he gave me a hard push and pushed me forward.
