By the time my grandfather and the others finally got on a canopy and rushed to the north bank of the river, the fishing boat had already docked, and the male corpse on the boat had also been carried down, and he didn't know where to go.

My grandfather found the boat boss on the fishing boat and wanted to ask where the body was, but the boat boss glared at him and asked my grandfather and a few of them in an unkind tone, "Where are you from and what do you want to do!" ”

This boat is about thirty years old, not very tall, very sturdy, probably because of the perennial boat on the river, the skin is blown black and red by the river wind, at first glance, the face is a little fierce.

My grandfather hurriedly explained to the boat boss that he was from Sanwangzhuang, and in the past, Sanwangzhuang had fished a female corpse with a similar situation to the male corpse, and the belly was also very large, and then a river monster ran out of the woman's stomach, and made trouble in the village for nearly a month, biting more than a dozen livestock in the village, and now, it is best to find out the male corpse and figure out the big belly, otherwise it will be a big trouble.

When the boat boss heard this, he frowned, and the expression on his face became complicated. The strange change on the face of the boat boss showed my grandfather in his eyes, and my grandfather didn't think much about it at that time. The matter of the water monster in Sanwangzhuang has long been spread in this area, and the boss of the ship has obviously heard of it.

After stopping for a while, the boat boss sighed "sigh", looked at my grandfather and a few of them, and opened the conversation: "The person we fished up is no one else, the wrinkle is our captain on this boat, his name is Liu Daqiang, this Daqiang and I are not only from the same village, but also I play with my bare ass to the big fat child, this fishing boat is also our two partners to buy miles......"

The boat boss said, and sighed again, "On the day of the dragon lord in the river, we were both frightened, and we left the fishing boat to flee for our lives, and there were a few guys on the boat, and a few of us jumped into the river to swim ashore, but after I swam ashore, I saw that Daqiang didn't come up, and a guy told me that he saw Daqiang pulling the dragon prince into the water and rolling him away." Later, I took the guys along the river bank to find the boat, and on the other hand, I looked for Daqiang, and finally the boat found it, Daqiang has not been able to find it, who wants to be a ...... Alas...... I asked the man to carry his body back to the village, and I guess I will go to his house at this time......" As he spoke, the boat boss raised his hand and wiped it from the corner of his eye, but my grandfather did not see tears on his face.

After the boat boss finished talking about the above, his attitude towards my grandfather and the others was obviously much better, and he asked my grandfather, "What is going on with that river monster in Sanwangzhuang, is it a dead ghost or something else." ”

My grandfather replied, "Ten of the *** are the resentment of the deceased." ”

When the captain heard this, his face changed, and he looked very uneasy, and hurriedly asked my grandfather, "Then, how did you get rid of the river monster?" ”

At this time, my grandfather felt that the boss of the ship was a little concerned about him, and he was not concerned about the death of his friend, but he was quite concerned about the ghost of the deceased. Perhaps, the common people are taboo about these things in their hearts, especially after the death of someone they know under abnormal circumstances, they are afraid that the ghosts of these undead will stick to themselves. My grandfather didn't want to intervene with the boat boss, so he casually perfunctory to him, "That river monster was used to kill us with wicker." ”

The captain of the boat seemed to be relieved when he heard this, and immediately showed a smile that was not smiling, which was very ugly and far-fetched.

The captain asked my grandfather again, "This little brother, are you doing this business?" ”

My grandfather paused, then quickly nodded again, and said ambiguously, "I learned a little bit when I was a child. ”

The boat boss's face suddenly showed joy, and he offered to show my grandfather and them the way, and take my grandfather and them to Liu Daqiang's house to see Liu Daqiang's body.

The deceased Liu Daqiang and the boat boss in front of him are actually from the same village as my great-grandfather, and I have already said earlier that my great-grandfather's home is in Yanjin Ferry on the north bank of the Yellow River, and later my great-grandfather followed Wang Shoudao to learn art, so he settled in Sanwangzhuang on the south bank of the Yellow River.

This village on the north bank of Huang, similar to Sanwangzhuang on the south bank, is also close to the bank of the river, under the jurisdiction of Yanjin County, I have never mentioned it in the past, and I don't think it's too late to talk about it now.

The name of this village is Liu Zhuang, and as the name suggests, most of the people in the village have the surname Liu. At this time, Liu Zhuang still lived in my great-grandfather's two younger brothers, that is, my grandfather's two uncles, my two ancestors, at this time are not young, both in their fifties.

Liu Zhuang is not a stranger to my grandfather, often come back with my great-grandfather to see during the New Year's holidays, this time my grandfather fled back to Sanwangzhuang alone, and also took the time to visit the two uncles.

After saying nothing all the way, several people followed the boat boss out of the river bank and quickly entered the village. During this period, my grandfather found that this boat boss walked vigorously, as if he was a practitioner.

After a few people followed the boat boss to the deceased Liu Daqiang's house, they were very surprised, and there was no such gloomy fog as my grandfather imagined, a bright big tile house, a large courtyard, and the home was well arranged, obviously this Liu Daqiang's family background was not bad, there were no old people and children at home, only a little daughter-in-law, who was in her early twenties, and her appearance was not bad, but her face was covered with heavy makeup, her eyebrows were slightly charming, and her clothes were dressed with bells and whistles, which gave me the feeling of my grandfather. It's like the girls in the green building.

At this time, Liu Daqiang's body was placed on a wooden board in the yard, and the corpse was covered with a broken straw mat.

After the boat boss took my wife and a few of them into the house, the boat boss directly told the little daughter-in-law and a few old people about the intention of my wife and a few of them.

When the little daughter-in-law and a few old people heard this, their faces changed. In the past, those ordinary people, everyone was afraid of provoking these things, so they couldn't avoid them.

The fancy little daughter-in-law immediately raised her throat and said, "Carry it away, carry it away, burn it with a knife and cut it, whatever you want, as long as this dead ghost doesn't come to the house to mess around." ”

When the old men heard the little daughter-in-law's words, they were a little unhappy, and they quarreled with the little daughter-in-law.

Later, my grandfather learned that Liu Daqiang's parents died when he was a teenager, and these old people were the elders of their family.

A few old people told my grandfather that they wanted to inspect Liu Daqiang's body, and they didn't need to carry it away, so they would inspect it in the courtyard, in front of everyone, if there was no problem, they would also take care of the funeral and bury Liu Daqiang in the ancestral grave.

The suggestions put forward by a few old people are also reasonable, but they have a big problem for my grandfather, why, because none of them can be sure whether Liu Daqiang's stomach is a soak of river water or a river monster, and he pressed Liu Daqiang's stomach with his hand, which was hard and strong, and there seemed to be something in it, but when he shook it with his hand, the round stomach was full of the sound of rushing water, and it sounded like there was nothing. My grandfather also asked Wang Caoyu and them to find a few wickers, and twitched Liu Daqiang on the stomach a few times, causing the old men to blow their beards and stare without saying anything, and they didn't react at all.

After the donkey skills are exhausted, the only way to judge whether there is a problem in Liu Daqiang's stomach is to disembowel his belly.

In our place, we pay attention to the deceased, and after the death of many young people, when the elders of the clan mourn, they have to kowtow to the spiritual position of the deceased. Disembowelment, that is absolutely not allowed. Leaving aside our traditional customs, as far as the Qing Dynasty statutes at that time were concerned, there was a clause in it that was specifically set to protect the bodies of the dead, and desecration of corpses was also a felony at that time.

This Qing Dynasty law was originally set up by Emperor Qianlong in order to rehabilitate Dolgon, but it is ironic that this law set by Emperor Qianlong invisibly condemned his own grandfather, that is, Emperor Shunzhi, the ancestor of the Qing dynasty. As we all know, Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty once dragged Dolgon's corpse from the tomb and whipped the corpse, which is a naked desecration of the corpse. Perhaps Emperor Qianlong was afraid that this kind of whipping of the corpse would happen again, so he set this regulation.

Having said that, at this moment, whether it is folk customs or the laws of the Qing Dynasty, let's not talk about these aside, even these old people promised my grandfather and them, and my grandfather and a few of them did not have the courage to disembowel Liu Daqiang's corpse, and even a ruthless person like my grandfather, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, frowned in the face of Liu Daqiang's big belly.

In the end, Wang Caoyu pulled my grandfather aside and whispered to my grandfather: "Uncle Bingshou, let's care what they are doing so much, tell me to say, let's leave this matter alone, what trouble they like in the village, as long as there is something in our village, it will be in trouble." ”

My grandfather said to Wang Caoyu: "If there is really a river monster in the stomach of that dead man, do you dare to guarantee that this river monster will not go to our village to make trouble?" ”

Wang Caoyu was speechless when he heard this.

At this moment, my grandfather's heart ached suddenly, as if he had been stabbed with a sharp knife, and his whole expression immediately became sad and sad.

Why? Because at this time, my grandfather remembered a secret technique that my great-grandfather taught him privately two years ago.

Why do I feel pain in my grandfather's heart when I think of this secret technique, because this secret technique is used for the children in the pregnant woman's womb to see men and women, and you can tell whether the pregnant woman is pregnant with a man or a woman through the belly. The name of this secret technique is "Fulfillment Technique".

I am saying at the moment that there is a secret technique in this world to see whether the fetus is male or female through the belly of a pregnant woman, you may not believe it, you must think that I am talking nonsense, but you still don't believe it, I can tell you clearly here that there is such a spell
