Even the police couldn't believe such a strange situation, so many fishermen disappeared, and not a single corpse could be found at the bottom of the river, which was really strange! I followed my father to watch the excitement by the river, my father may be kind, so he told the police that my mother was also missing like this, and I don't know if it was helpful to the police, anyway, there seemed to be a lot of police that night, around the entire Zijiang River, both on the river and on the shore have launched a dragnet search, a fuss came to the dawn, the families of the missing fishermen each stood on the shore and waited for news, my father and I returned home early to rest, when the village was panicked, there was a miracle happened, In the early morning of the next day, the villagers and many policemen who were guarding the shore said that the fishermen who had disappeared in the storm yesterday had taken advantage of the dawn to walk up from the Zijiang River one by one, and many of them had come back mysteriously!

What's even more strange is that these fishermen who came back were actually full of energy, and their faces were full of red light, except that they came up from the water and were soaked, there was no abnormality at all! But when the police and their families asked them why they suddenly disappeared on the water, they were actually the dragon king under the Zijiang River who invited them to be guests underwater, but this unbelievable answer came out, and the people in the village were superstitious about the dragon lady of the Zijiang River, and when they saw that the missing fishermen were fine, they recognized such a statement. But it was a little unbelievable to the police, but after finding a doctor from the city to examine these fishermen, they all said that they were healthy and there was nothing wrong with them, and the police could only accept such a ridiculous answer, after all, the case was normal.

However, when Tu Qianyi, who was also at the scene, looked at Tu Zhenggong, as if she felt that something was wrong, especially Tu Qianyi's face was very heavy, she set out to stop the fifteen fishermen who came up from the Zijiang River, and told the others loudly and unprecedentedly that although the fifteen of them were still alive, they were actually dead, and they could prepare a funeral for them!

Tu Qianyi's ridiculous words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the villagers, especially the angry rebuttal of the fifteen fishermen, saying that this was Tu Qianyi cursing them for their early death, and saying that such a young girl was talking nonsense here, which provoked Tu Zhenggong to hurriedly apologize, but I saw that Tu Qianyi was firm, and still did not change his position, and even said that the lives of these fifteen fishermen would definitely die if they didn't live for three days!

For this kind of absurd nonsense, no one in the village likes to hear it, if many men didn't see that Tu Qianyi is a little girl, I am afraid that they would have already treated her with their hands and feet, and they must know that the unlucky mouth in the countryside is to curse people to death. After making a fuss, no one in the village believed Tu Qianyi's words, so she didn't say anything more, when she was idle after returning home, I asked Tu Qianyi curiously, why did you say such a thing today, didn't their missing fishermen all come back in good shape?

Tu Qianyi lowered her head and drank, she glanced at me and asked me, if she told me the reason, would I believe what she said? I thought about it, in order to know Tu Qianyi's thoughts, I nodded along with her and said that I would believe it, but Tu Zhenggong on the side seemed to be a little opposed, and he whispered to Tu Qianyi for me to hear, saying that I was just a child, and I didn't understand these things.

"It's okay, Uncle Gong, I'm sure he'll understand. Don't forget that we came, the master said that we should move with fate, and if there is no specific clue, then we might as well come like this. Tu Qianyi told Tu Zhenggong a little inexplicable, but she told me that why the fishermen who came back today didn't live for three days was because all the essence in their bodies had been drained.

I scratched my head and asked what is Jingyuan? Tu Qianyi said that people have essence, energy, and spirit, which are necessary conditions to support a living person, which is also called Jingyuan. And if you don't have the essence, you will become a dead person. And the fifteen disappeared fishermen who came up from the Zijiang River today, although they are still alive and look very healthy, but it is only a sign of the return of the dead, and there is a trace of death in the eyebrows, and the pupils of their eyes are actually dull, saying that they have lived for three days is still the longest period, and I am afraid that something will happen tomorrow!

"Ah, that's this, this ......" I was really frightened by Tu Qianyi's answer, you must know that there are fifteen people, according to Tu Qianyi, they are all dead! In the past, everyone in the village had to do three days of rituals, and everyone in the village knew about it, so if what Tu Qianyi said was true this time, wouldn't there be a disturbance in our village?

I asked Tu Qianyi in a whisper, is there any way to save them? Tu Qianyi shook his head and said no, the lives of their fifteen fishermen had already become a dead corpse, and they couldn't save them without Jingyuan. My heart trembled, and I asked her why this was happening, and how did the lives of these fifteen fishermen die?

"It's under the Zijiang River, the thing that pulled you into the water last time."

Tu Qianyi said that it was the thing hidden under the Zijiang River that pulled these fishermen to the bottom of the water, and then sucked up their essence element, and then deliberately did not let them all die, leaving a trace of residual essence for them to come back, so that they could die on the shore, so that it would not be easy for the underwater thing to expose more traces.

I asked Tu Qianyi again, did the fishermen who came back say that it was a dragon girl? Tu Qianyi immediately shook his head and said no! She said that there was no dragon energy in the water vapor of this Zijiang River, not even at all, and Long Niang was not in this Zijiang River for a long time, as for the dragon king that the fishermen said, it was because they didn't know that there was something else hidden under the Zijiang River besides Long Niang, so when that thing sucked their essence, it should not have resisted anything, but mistakenly thought that it was Long Niang who was entertaining them.

"If there is such a murderous thing underwater, why do so many police people dive down and don't find that thing?" I'm curious, there are so many people who have gone into the water to look for it, but they haven't found anything other than the huge pile of fish bones. I'm very strange, but Tu Qianyi chuckled, with a contemptuous smile, as if laughing at me for being ignorant, she only said that the police are police, but after all, they are just ordinary people, and the thing under the water of Zijiang River can't be looked at with the insight and mentality of ordinary people, so it won't be discovered by the police.

I thought about it, and suddenly asked Tu Qianyi again, saying that since you can know what is under this Zijiang River, it means that you are different from those policemen, and you are not an ordinary person? In this regard, Tu Qianyi was also stunned, obviously she didn't expect me to ask such a question, she didn't answer me directly to this question, just said that I was still young, and even these adults in our village were still only on the basis of a little bit of the scope of their understanding of this world, and there were many incredible things, things, that we had never seen or even experienced, so there were many things that we didn't understand, which was normal.

I nodded, I really didn't know what Tu Qianyi meant by what he said at the time. But with some things happening later, I really realized how small I am to the world now! Of course, this is a later story.

On the same day, Tu Qianyi told me that those fishermen could not live for three days, and the next day, I had just woken up early in the morning, and I heard a sound in the village, which was the mourning music played by the loudspeaker used for funerals.

Remembering what Tu Qianyi said yesterday, I quickly got up from the bed, my father just came back from outside and made breakfast for Tu Qianyi and Tu Zhenggong, and my father was very surprised and said to Tu Qianyi: "Miss Tu, you are really accurate!" Three of the fishermen who disappeared yesterday died this morning! ”
