Chapter 2: Soul Shouting in the River

The wind blew by the river, the waves crashed ashore from time to time, and the sky was gloomy, so we lit a bonfire. The second grandfather was helping Duan Gong on the side, and when everything was ready, we got on a bamboo raft, Duan Gong held a bowl in his hand, the bowl contained rice, and a sign was inserted in the rice with Grandpa's name and birthday written on it.

He handed me the rice bowl and said to me, "Be steady, don't fall into the water."

I hummed.

The second grandfather is in charge of the helm, he is a good hand on the water, and this boat will definitely not capsize easily. After a while, Duan Gong began to chant some words, his voice was very small, and his speech was very fast, so I didn't hear what he was shouting clearly.

It's just that as he keeps chattering, I feel the wind in my ears become stronger.

Then I heard him call my grandfather's name and tell him to get back to his place.

Following his voice, the hull of the boat began to shake, and the rice bowl in my hand also shook, and I looked around, and my heart gradually became uneasy.

My eyes fell on Li Duangong and saw a cold sweat on his forehead, and his one-eyed eye looked a little scary in the night.

At this moment, a shadow suddenly appeared on the riverside, the black shadow fell on the water, my heart was suffocated, became nervous, and subconsciously took out a hand to get the flashlight and shine it on the river, this photo does not matter, the flashlight just turned on, and the hand was photographed down by someone.

"Don't mess around, your grandfather's soul is out." Li Duangong drank me sternly.

I was taken aback, and then adjusted my emotions, staring at the black shadow, although I didn't see the face, but the back was a little rickety, who else could it be if it wasn't my grandfather?

I held my breath and turned my head to look at my grandfather lying on the raft, but there was still no movement.

The dark shadow kept dangling from the bow of the ship, always keeping a certain distance. I was so anxious that I couldn't help but ask: "Li Duangong, why didn't my grandfather come?" ”

Li Duangong didn't answer, but it didn't take long for him to suddenly shout: "It's not good, the soul is sinking into the river, shout with me." ”

The second grandfather and I reacted quickly and shouted to grandpa together, so that grandpa's soul would come back soon. At the same time, the rice bowl in my hand shook more and more violently, and half of the rice inside was almost spilled. The voices of the three of us rang out one after another on the surface of the river.

But the shadow was still sinking into the river.

The second grandfather asked urgently: "Li Duangong, you should think of a way, my brother's soul is about to sink." ”

Li Duangong asked the second grandfather not to quarrel and concentrate on shouting souls.

When it was too late, my back seemed to be suddenly pushed down, and my body leaned forward, and the sound of the rice bowl sinking into the river. I hurriedly told Li Duangong about the matter. Li Duangong screamed and finished speaking.

Then I saw that Li Duangong jumped into the river with a jump.

People who were born by the Yellow River since I was a child generally have good water properties, so I don't think it's strange that Li Duan Guild can swim.

But the strange thing is that Li Duangong didn't come up from the river for several minutes, and the second grandfather and I looked at each other, and I asked the second grandfather, "What now?" ”

The second grandfather was also anxious, but the Yellow River was so long and wide, and if he sank alone, he really couldn't even splash the water. The second grandfather shouted Li Duangong a few times towards the surface of the Yellow River, but there was no response. After a few more minutes, Duan Gong still didn't come up.

Normal people who haven't come up for so long must have drowned. Although Duan Gong has some unusual skills, this time it is estimated that he is also more auspicious.

The second grandfather rowed the boat to the shore and asked me to go to the village and call someone to retrieve the corpse.

I hurried to the village, and soon called people back, but a dozen or so people searched for most of the night, and there was no news.

"Don't look for it, let's go to the bottom tomorrow and pick up the corpse." Someone said.

After everyone finished working, the second grandfather didn't look good, patted me on the shoulder with his hand and said to me: "Xiaoyan, don't think about it, leave the rest to your second grandfather, you go back to sleep first." ”

I can sleep anywhere, but there is no better way at the moment, so I have to carry my grandfather's body back first, and don't look back to what happened to my body.

When I got home, I put my grandfather's body on the bed. I stared at my grandfather and wanted to ask him what the hell was going on? Could it really be that all this has something to do with that woman, and these things can only be solved if that woman is found?

But the woman didn't leave any information, and she blamed herself at the time, and she didn't pay attention, but now it's too late to say anything.

I packed up and took a shower, still feeling uneasy.

Lying in bed, tossing and turning, I couldn't sleep, it was already late at night, and the rest of the village should be asleep. I don't know how the second grandfather handled the matter? I thought to myself, and in a daze, I slowly fell asleep.

"Bang bang" I suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.

I opened my eyes and looked at the door, but the wooden door did not move, I got up from the bed, went to open the door, and when the door opened, I couldn't help but gasp, and the whole person was in a state of confusion. The dress in front of me was a little strange, with a black caftan and a braid, and it didn't look like a person of our era at all.

When I came back to my senses, I boldly asked, "Who are you?" What are you doing standing in front of my house in the middle of the night? ”

He looked at the hollow, so that people didn't know what he was thinking, and after a while, he said, "Is your grandfather sick, I can save him." ”

I looked at the strange man's face and had some doubts in my heart, and said, "Can you really save my grandfather?" ”

He didn't answer me, but walked over me into the house, looked at me, and said, "Your grandfather's soul is lost." ”

When I saw that he was right, I took the opportunity to ask, "How can I get my grandfather's soul back?" ”

He twisted his fingers and said in a light tone, "It's a little difficult, but I can try." ”

I looked at this person carefully, and thought to myself, what Li Duangong couldn't do, can he do it? He can't be a liar. I asked him, "What are you doing for me for no reason?" ”

He didn't even raise his head, stared at his grandfather and said, "Your grandfather and I are old acquaintances." Then he said to me, "Go and get me a basin of hot water." ”

Although I don't know what this person is, but if I can save my grandfather, I am willing to try, I trotted all the way to get hot water.

When the water came back, I saw a person standing at the door of my grandfather's bedroom, he was leaning on the door frame, wet, looking at the back a little embarrassed, I opened my mouth and asked who he was? When he turned around, I was shocked to see that this person was none other than Li Duangong, who had dived last night.

He was pale and glazed-eyed.

I called Li Duangong, I just wanted to ask what happened last night?

He had obviously been at the door for a long time, and when he saw me coming, he said in a surprised tone, "Since this man has come, your grandfather's affairs will be much easier." ”

Hearing Duan Gong say this, it aroused the doubts in my heart, could it be that Duan Gong knew him. It seems that this man is not small. I opened my mouth and asked Duan Gong who he was?

Duan Gong pursed his lips, and just wanted to speak, but the black-shirted man walked over, stared at Duan Gong, and said in a serious and arrogant tone: "Since you know that I am coming, why don't you leave quickly." ”

Li Duangong immediately nodded and said, "I'll go, I'll go." ”

His expression was flustered, and seeing Duangong's appearance made my doubts even heavier, and his eyes fell on him unconsciously, and he seemed to find that I was looking at him, and said to me: "What are you still doing in a daze, bring the water in." ”

Duan Gong admires him so much, it seems that he has some real skills. After the water came in, he asked me to put it away, and then put my hand into the basin, and suddenly I saw two small fish swimming out of his sleeve, one black and one white, swam a few times in the basin, and the water instantly became boiling, but as his hand pressed into the water, it became calm again, and the fish returned to his sleeve. I was stunned.

After he had done all this, he said to me to wipe your grandfather's body with this water.

I answered in a distracted way, and wiped my grandfather's body with water, and when I washed the towel, the water instantly turned black, and I was curious, and I couldn't help but ask what was going on?

He said: "The water turns black, which means that the yin qi in your grandfather's body has been washed out, and someone has done something to your grandfather's body, so it will be even more difficult to return to the soul." ”

I immediately blurted out and asked, "Who is it?" ”
