Chapter 2 The female corpse comes to the door
Lao Jiuye is over 70 years old this year and is the most senior person in the village. Although he is old, he is not deaf and blind, and his spirit is very strong. The most important thing is to be fair and kind, in our remote mountainous area, there is no such thing as a village chief, and the old ninth master has become a person in the village. If there is a big or small affair in the village, they will also go to the old ninth master to decide.
Today's sacrifice to the river god is actually done by the old ninth master with people, after all, it is all for the village, and everyone agrees.
At this time, when I heard the old ninth master say this, the big guys all nodded and agreed, and the rest didn't say anything.
I turned around in a daze, feeling that the excitement was gone, and there was no need to stay here.
Zhang Mo followed at this time, lowered his voice and said to me: "The old ninth master said that he asked people to inquire, in fact, that is to say, I heard that this woman is afraid that she is the daughter of the river god." Let's sacrifice to the river god, and the daughter of the river god came out, which is the sincerity that touched the river god. ”
"Fart river god, what's going on in your head? Mind your mouth! I pouted, disapproving. After reading the book for so many years, I don't really believe in any ghosts and gods, if I say that I believe a woman, maybe my son fell into the river and was washed by the current to the Wang Chuan River, but if it is said that it is the daughter of the river god, this is a bit evil.
Zhang Mo was a little uncalm, and he was anxious with me, saying, "Why don't you believe it?" Then you say, when you sacrifice to the river god, why does a woman come out? ”
I was speechless, so I simply ignored Zhang Mo, turned around and walked home.
When I got home, I flipped through a few books and felt bored, but the appearance of the female corpse kept echoing in my head. I don't know if this is a manifestation of the exuberance of male hormones, and I always feel that shadow has been echoing in my head.
After dinner in the evening, I mentioned it to my mother, saying that a woman was fished out of the river today.
My mother's movements froze, and she didn't say anything, just told me to finish eating and go to bed.
I thought to myself, maybe the mention of the river reminded my mother of the sad thing, so I simply closed my mouth and went back to the house after eating.
This night, I slept very hard, as if I had a dream, and always dreamed of the female corpse in my dreams, standing in front of me with her eyes staring straight at me.
Towards midnight, I was woken up by a burst of urine, and I pulled my clothes with sleepy eyes, ready to go to the bathroom. In the countryside, the toilets are almost all in the yard, so going to the toilet in the middle of the night is more painful.
I finally got up, put on my clothes, and opened the door in a daze, my face changed in a flash, and I suddenly came to my senses with a buzz in my head.
In the courtyard of my house, there was a woman kneeling, naked and untouched. When I saw it clearly, I gasped in fright, wasn't this the female corpse that was fished out of the river?
The female corpse knelt on the ground, and the cold moonlight sprinkled on her body, as if with a layer of coldness. The long black hair was scattered behind his back, like a strange picture. When the yin wind blows, the hair is like a living earthworm, constantly bending. The most terrifying thing is her posture, lonely and prostrate on the ground, unable to see the expression on her face, her body curled up, like a fetus still in the mother's womb, as if in repentance.
A few crows hovered over the courtyard, making a quacking sound and flapping their black wings, which made it even more eerie.
I was so frightened that I stood up, heard a clang behind me, and hurriedly looked back to see my mother watching this scene in amazement. The flashlights had fallen to the ground. She didn't seem to know, but her body trembled slightly.
"Yang Sheng, don't touch her, Mom will go find someone to get her out." My mother said in a trembling voice and hurried out of the yard. When I passed by the female corpse, I made a huge circle, opened the courtyard door, and disappeared.
I was terrified, staring at the female corpse in a daze. In the middle of the night, he appeared in the yard of my house, what the hell is going on?
It didn't take long for the old ninth master to come, and he brought a few people from the village. As soon as he entered the yard, the old ninth master patted his thigh and said, "What is this?" Which bastard got her? ”
My mother went into the yard and took my hand, seemingly comforting me, but her body shook terribly.
"Yang Sheng's mother, it's okay, I'll send people back to the ancestral hall. It must be some bastard, kidding you mother! The old ninth master comforted a few words, hurriedly took people, wrapped the female corpse in a white cloth, and carried it out of the courtyard.
My mom didn't say anything the whole time, but her face was a little ugly.
"Mom, it's okay, let Zhang Mo inquire tomorrow, it must be a bastard in the village, specifically to scare us!" I said comfortingly.
My mom just nodded, looking very scared. After all, this kind of thing happened, and it would be false to say that you are not afraid.
I comforted me for a while, and then went back to my room and lay down, barely sleeping that night.
The next morning, almost everyone in the village knew what had happened last night, and the rumors were spreading. The most talked, saying that the female corpse is the daughter of the river god's mother, I am a blessed person, and I was taken by the daughter of the river god, and this is to make a private agreement with me for life.
I don't believe in any river god at all, let alone the daughter of a river god, in my opinion, this is a ghost behind someone's back, a female corpse in the middle of the night, just for our house.
I look forward to the smooth progress of the old ninth master, find the family of the deceased, then hurry up and send this female corpse out, although it is indeed beautiful, but kneeling in my yard like this is really disturbing.
When it was approaching night, there was no movement on the side of the old ninth master, and I guess there was still no conclusion on the identity of this female corpse. Communication in the village is not well developed, and it is indeed not easy to find out the identity of a person.
At dinner in the evening, my mother was silent and didn't speak, and I didn't dare to say anything. My mom and I sat for a long time, and when it was getting dark, we went back to sleep. Actually, I said I was sleeping, but I kept thinking about today's events in my head, which is really strange.
I slept in a daze until midnight, and suddenly I felt a palpitation, opened my eyes suddenly, and felt my heartbeat continue to accelerate. It felt like a heart was about to jump out of my throat.
I don't know why I feel this way, I always feel a little panicked.
I don't know how long I lay in bed, but when I finally heard an exclamation from the kitchen, I hurriedly pushed open the door and saw my mother standing in the doorway, looking out into the yard with horror on her face.
"How so?" I got goosebumps all over my body, and my heart trembled.
In the courtyard, the female corpse was prostrate on the ground, her body curled up, and she knelt on the ground with five bodies on the ground, like a fetus still in the mother's body. Her hair fluttered in the air, like weeds flying in a mass grave. The most terrifying thing is that on her head, there is a dark green ghost fire floating in it, like a wolf's eyes, making a squeaking sound.
The cold moonlight sprinkled on her snow-white body, like transparent dry bones, and a dozen crows landed on the courtyard wall, quacking, as if they were running for funeral.
I swallowed my saliva, and the anger in my heart also stirred up, and at this time, I heard a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the old ninth master rushed in with a few people. As soon as he saw the corpse of the woman, he patted his thigh and howled, "What kind of sin has this been created!" How did such a scourge come about? ”
I hurriedly walked out of the house, and heard the old ninth master say to me: "Yang Sheng, I was afraid that something would happen at night, so I went to the ancestral hall to take a look, who knew that something would happen!" I locked her up in the ancestral hall yesterday, what the hell is going on! ”
My face was not good-looking, and I hurriedly asked him, "Ninth Grandpa, what is going on?" ”
The old ninth master's face became extremely pale, and he said to me tremblingly: "Yang Sheng, do you believe that this is the daughter of the river god?" ”
I saw that the old ninth master said solemnly, and I was a little scared in my heart.
Old Ninth Master's lips trembled, and he said, "Yang Sheng, Ninth Grandfather has heard a rumor......
