In ancient times, these people were convinced of such things as strange forces and chaos, and even the deeds in the county government were no exception. It is equivalent to the current forensic doctor, which has been mentioned earlier.

At this time, I opened the corner of the mat for my grandfather to see. My grandfather was puzzled, and walked a few steps to the feet of the corpse to take a look, and saw that Liu Daqiang's two feet and necks had a very clear five-finger scratch, which was bruised at this time, obviously grabbed by someone with his hands on his feet and neck.

He asked my grandfather, "According to the little brother, could the five-finger claw marks on these two ankles be caused by the female doll fish who has become a fine?" ”

My grandfather looked at the two bruises and shook his head, "I don't look like it, it looks like it was done by a martial artist who has practiced 'grappling technique' or 'eagle claw skill'." ”

"Yes, what Little Brother Liu said is right, I think it looks like a master of the green forest." The catcher next to him interjected, agreeing with my grandfather's words very much.

My grandfather heard the head catcher say this, glanced at him, reached out and pinched the bruises on the two ankles of the corpse, and said to the head catcher: "This person is not a master, judging from the degree of bruises on the corpse, if it was a master of the green forest, Liu Daqiang's ankle bone should have been misplaced." ”

As soon as my grandfather said this, the head catcher immediately looked at him with admiration, and the head catcher said: "As soon as the expert makes a move, he will know if there is one, it seems that the little brother is not simple." ”

My grandfather smiled faintly when he heard this, and was about to say something, but he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "As long as it is not done by the female doll fish who has become a sperm." He continued: "According to what the little brother said, coupled with my years of experience in autopsy, Liu Daqiang should have been drowned by someone first by grabbing his ankle and drowning in the river, and then by the baby fish laying fish eggs in the belly, if the claw marks on the ankle were not made by the sperm baby fish, then Liu Daqiang's death is a drowning homicide case." As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the head catcher, "You and I can report to the county magistrate and order a thorough investigation of the case." ”

"Hmm," the headcatcher nodded.

At this time, my grandfather found that since he had just entered the mill, the young man who had come with him had been lying on a stone platform and recording something with pen and paper. After finishing speaking, he walked to the side of the descendant, picked up the things recorded by the descendant, looked at it, and nodded.

Then the four of them walked out of the mill together, where the people were still waiting.

He walked up to the tall and thin old man, gave a salute and said, "Uncle, there is another secret in this matter, my nephew is going to return to the county government and say goodbye to my uncle." After speaking, he turned his head and said to my grandfather: "You can dispose of the corpse and this little baby fish as appropriate, and please don't talk about it to others about what happened just now." ”

A few old men wanted to stay and catch the head of the three of them to have dinner together, but they didn't agree, saying that they had to rush back to the county office immediately if there was an emergency.

It is said that the county magistrate of Yanjin County at that time was not very good, but his master, head catcher and servant were very effective, and Yanjin County did not have unjust cases, wrongful cases, or even headless cases during that period.

After the three of them left, the tall and thin old man asked my grandfather, what should I do with the corpse and the little baby fish?

My grandfather didn't think about it, and said, "The little baby fish will be handed over to us, and as for the corpse, you can take care of it yourself." ”

After my grandfather finished speaking, he didn't promise a few old men to stay and eat, so he took Wang Caoyu and a few of them and left Liuzhuang with baby fish.

Soon, several people came to a stop by a row of willow trees on the bank of the river. My grandfather threw the carcass of the baby fish under a big willow tree, and told the king grass fish to beat them with a few wickers, and a few people pouted a few wickers, surrounded the dead baby fish, and drew their round arms.

It doesn't matter if this one is pumped, my grandfather found that the wicker was pumped on this dead baby fish, just like it was pumped on a dead pig, there was no movement at all, and there was no phenomenon of black water flowing from the baby fish before, but the mucus on the dead baby fish was pumped and splashed everywhere, disgusting and terrible.

After a while, my grandfather waved his hand and asked a few people to stop, and he couldn't figure it out at this time, why didn't the same trick work when used on different baby fish?

He stared at the dead doll fish and thought about it, took out the Liangyi Yin and Yang Sword from his body, held the sword with one hand, and put on a mouthful of dantian qi, according to the dead doll fish's head is a sword, it may be too strong, just listen to the "flutter" sound, the Liangyi Yin Yang Sword actually pierced the head of the baby fish, and then my grandfather pressed the hilt of the sword down, the baby fish half pulled the head and cut it off, and dark red blood flowed out from the cut place, slimy, my grandfather took advantage of the situation to pick the tip of the sword upward, and the whole head of the baby fish was hung with sticky blood to pick it down, The whole process was as easy as cutting tofu, which made my grandfather more and more puzzled.

At this time, Wang Caoyu came over and asked my grandfather, "Uncle Bingshou, when did you sharpen your sword so quickly?" ”

My grandfather glanced at him, ignored him, waved his sword "brush, brush" a few times, cut the dead baby fish into several sections, and after looking at the fish corpses with a sword, he said to Wang Caoyu: "Go find some firewood and try it with fire." ”

Not surprisingly, this baby fish is obviously not of the same grade as the baby fish that appeared in Sanwangzhuang before, and it is very effective no matter how sword slashing and burning.

A few young people picked up a large pile of firewood ashes, lit them, and after lighting them, it didn't take much effort to bake the carcasses of the baby fish into charcoal on the fire.

My grandfather was afraid that the situation would happen again, so he crushed the coke into powder with his feet one by one, and when the river wind blew, it was everywhere near the riverbank, which really caused the bones to be dusted.

After burying the scraps of the dead baby fish, a few people rushed to the ferry to find a boat to cross the river. At this time, it was already late, and the captains had already called it a day and gone home, and they searched for a few laps but did not find a boat.

A few people had to go to the bank of the river to find the "river patrolman". What is a "river patrolman", to put it bluntly, that is, the person responsible for guarding the boat, the nature is similar to the current bicycle, the boat regularly gives these river patrollers some expenses, and the river patroller ensures that the boat is not stolen at night.

At the Yanjin ferry on the north bank of the Yellow River, a family of five is in charge of patrolling the river, an old father in his sixties with four sons, the oldest of the four sons is in his early forties, and the youngest is only fifteen or sixteen years old, younger than my grandfather.

However, my grandfather and a few of them found a few father and son patrolling the river, so to say, their mouths were about to wear out, and the father and son just didn't agree to ferry them, and they couldn't give any amount of money.

The old man who patrolled the river said that they had a small boat, but they did not eat the bowl of rice of the ferryman, and there were rules and regulations, and the well water did not violate the river water, and they could not mess with the rules.

In the end, my grandfather lifted my great-grandfather out again, and as soon as the old man heard my great-grandfather's name, he immediately changed his attitude towards my grandfather.

Why, because the five fathers and sons are also from Liu Zhuang, also surnamed Liu, not to mention the same clan as my grandfather, the old man's third son ran into evil when he was young, and it was my great-grandfather who cured it, and the old man's family was poor at that time, and my great-grandfather not only did not ask for their things, but gave them more than a dozen taels of silver, and the old man's family has always been grateful to my great-grandfather.

After the old man was polite to my grandfather, he asked his fourth son, that is, his youngest son, to send my grandfather and them across the river.

The old man's youngest son is named Yudan'er, and he is very clever, not only good in water, but also bold.

However, because the old man's boat is small and dilapidated, there are six people in total, and they can't support so many people at one time, so they can only support it twice. My grandfather asked Yudan'er to ferry three of them first, and he and Wang Caoyu and another young man did the second transfer.

An hour later, Yudan'er sent the three young men to the other side of the river and came back to pick up my grandfather and the three of them.

After my wife and the three of them got into the boat, the fish balls "squeaked and squeaked" and shook the oars. Although the sky was dark, the river was dark, and the bow of the boat only picked a white cloth lantern that flickered and dimmed, the speed at which the fish balls rocked the boat was not slow.

After a stick of incense, about half an hour, the boat walked to the middle of the river, at this time, the speed of the boat suddenly slowed down, almost stopped in the middle of the river and no longer moved.

Before he could reach the stern, Yudan'er shouted at my grandfather, "Uncle, let's see if there is anything under the boat, why did the boat become so heavy." ”

Before Yudan'er's words fell, the boat seemed to be out of control, slowly spinning in the water, and no matter how Yudan'er shook the oars, the boat just couldn't stop. My grandfather hurriedly turned around and took down the white cloth lantern that the bow of the boat had picked, raised it above his head and shone it into the river, and immediately took a cool breath.

I saw a big whirlpool in the river at some point, and the boat was hovering at the edge of the whirlpool at the moment, slowly moving closer to the center along the whirlpool. The center of the whirlpool was pitch black, like a terrifying bottomless pit, and if the boat drifted to the center of the whirlpool, the people on board would definitely be dead or alive.

The other three people on the boat also saw this terrifying scene by the light of the lantern, and the other young man who was traveling with my grandfather immediately screamed "ah" in fright, which invisibly made the tension at the moment more and more solemn.

Wang Caoyu said to my grandfather in a trembling voice: "This, isn't this the big whirlpool we saw during the day? ”

As soon as Wang Grass Carp finished speaking, bubbles the size of a human head rose from the black hole in the center of the whirlpool, and circles of ripples rippled from the center of the whirlpool, causing the river in this area to look like it was boiling.

Before a few people could react, there was a huge sound of water, accompanied by the sound, from the center of the whirlpool straight out of a black, python-like large water monster, this water monster head is the size of a carriage, the body is as thick as three people hugging, at the lower end of the water monster's neck, there is a pair of short duck webbed claws, the claws are also the size of a dustpan
