"Expert Li really has a lot of knowledge!" Village Chief Luo patted his ass. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fat Bao meowed and whispered: "Isn't it just like 'pop papa', where the man is face down on top and the woman is face down on the bottom?" Talking so much nonsense and packaging yourself as if you were cultured! ”

"But there is a third posture for the corpses in the water! This is a very rare gesture! Village Chief Luo showed a strange expression, "That's the standing posture!" It is a posture that does not float and is always in the water. ”

"Standing?" I repeated in surprise, "That's not scientific!" Not to mention immovable corpses, even living people can't be standing in the water all the time because of buoyancy! ”

"More precisely, the posture of walking." Village Chief Luo continued, "I believe that there will be legends of water ghosts in many places. Especially in the countryside near the rivers and seas, the legend of water ghosts is the most popular. And we call this kind of corpse that maintains a walking posture in the water a water ghost, also known as a water demon! If, during the dry season, human footprints can be seen on some dry riverbeds, and these footprints extend all the way to the center of the river, they must have been left by the water. The reason for the appearance of the water demon is that those people were entangled by the river demon before they were born, and after the river demon killed them, he also manipulated their corpses to swim in the water and continue to harm people. ”

"What a horrible scene that would be!" I say.

"How scary?" Fei Bao asked.

"Imagine when you are riding a boat in the center of Lion Ocean, and suddenly you see a person walking in the water, with a strand of black hair floating, and then turning his head and looking up at you slightly, even if it is daytime, it will scare you half to death!"

"Cut!"

"And when the water brake is fished up, it is often like it has just died, there is no sign of being blistered at all, but the face will be extremely distorted." Village Chief Luo said.

"Uncle, the more you talk about it, the more exaggerated it becomes!" Fei Bao said.

"It's not an exaggeration at all!" Village Chief Luo said, "In the past, we would only find a water brake in our village for a year or two, but as long as it appeared, it would alarm the whole village. But in the last few months, with the addition of the one over there, it has been the third water brake. This made the villagers more and more uneasy. ”

"Did you say the corpse over there was just standing in the water?" "It's still the same as when it first died, its body isn't swollen from blisters, but its face is a little crooked?" ”

"It's a twist!" Village Chief Luo deliberately emphasized, "The previous water demons were like this, but I didn't have time to look at the corpse over there!" ”

"How can we believe it if we don't have evidence?"

"Now that the body has been recovered, it doesn't prove that it has been walking in the water before." "But we can go over and look at the corpse and see it at a glance!" ”

"Go and go, whoever is afraid of whom! Let's go, Ke Shao! Fei Bao said.

"Huh? Autopsy! "My heart exploded, grandma's, this dead fat treasure, if you want to do an autopsy, you have to pull me up. But I can't be cowardly as an "expert". Both Qixing and Wolf looked at me, blaming themselves for pretending to be overdone just now. I can only bite the bullet.

We came to the corpse, and I motioned for Fat Bao to lift the corpse cloth. I was ready to see a corpse that was swollen all over, with lips turned out, eyes that were soaked out, and a head that had become unusually large due to the water ingress into me. But I didn't expect that, as Village Chief Luo said, the corpse had no signs of swelling at all, but it was really terrible for his boss.

Judging by her size, it was an adult woman. Her hair was messy, and her body and clothes were drenched. But the face was contorted at an angle that would not normally be possible. It's like there's a suction cup inside her body, spinning and sucking her face inside. It's almost impossible to see clearly. Goosebumps came out all over my body. This is more terrifying than the white bones below the heads seen in the underground ruins of Longtou Mountain, and the heads are as if they have just died, and even the corpses whose expressions remain in the moment of fear before they die.

We were all taken aback.

I shook my head, calmed down, and said, "Maybe this man just died not long ago, so he wasn't swollen by the blisters." But this face ......"

"Shui Sha's face is like this, that's why I told you to be mentally prepared just now!" Village Chief Luo said, "And this woman is not just dead, although her face is distorted like this, there is no way to identify her appearance, but according to her figure and clothes, it can be judged that she is the wife of our village Lao Wang." A few days ago, someone found out that her behavior was very strange, and the villagers estimated that she was entangled by the river demon, but before she could help her do the exorcism ritual, she had an accident. ”

"And here's the thing!" I said to Fat Treasure to cover the corpse cloth, I didn't want to see the corpse's eyes again.

"Now believe it! I don't want to take you to the grove over there in Legend of the Fallen Dragon because it's relatively close to the river, and I don't want you to hear or encounter these things! I don't want my superiors to know that we're haunted here! Because the Party has always taught us to be materialists, we can't spread ghosts and gods everywhere! I also ask the experts to help me say some kind things to my superiors, and we don't want to spread these ghost things. ”

"I'm still a little bit unconvinced!" I watched closely at the churning water by the river.

"Follow me!" Village Chief Luo said, "Maybe you'll believe it later." ”

"Where are you going?" Fei Bao asked.

"I'm going to see the water ghosts!"

"Isn't that what you're talking about?" Fat Bao pointed to the corpse and said.

"No, it's just a dead man's water!"

"Is there anything alive?"

"Of course it's alive!" Village Chief Luo said, "It's not far from here, let's walk over and talk as we go!" He motioned for Director Luo to stay and guard the body with a few other village cadres, and then he led us forward.

We all looked at each other in amazement.

There are still living water ghosts? The most important thing is that Village Chief Luo said it as if it were true. His boss, have I been in the countryside for too long and know too little about the outside world? Village Chief Luo's tone when he said this was as calm as eating lettuce usually, could it be that here, the dead water ghosts are terrifying, and the living water ghosts are normal? What kind of logic is this?

"Actually, the water ghosts I took you to meet are not the water ghosts you imagined!" Village Chief Luo said as he walked, "This kind of water ghost is a profession!" It is played by people as professionals. ”

"What does this profession do?" Fat Bao said, "Pretending to be a ghost? ”

I couldn't help but laugh a little. In addition to smashing me, Fat Bao also likes to come out to be funny!

"Water ghosts are a profession handed down from the Yellow River Valley! Only where you live by the river can you have it! Village Chief Luo said, "As I said just now, corpses appear by our river from time to time, so we need the profession of corpse collectors. The corpse collector will pick up the body stuck in the river and wait for the family to claim it. ”

"The schumpers refused to accept money from the families of the deceased. Because receiving this kind of money will be bad for three years. The traditional rule is that the family of the deceased invites the corpse collector to their home for a meal, and before leaving, they also tie a small red cloth strip on the middle finger of the corpse collector, which is to ward off evil spirits. ”

"What a profession! If the secretary doesn't take money, who else will do it? Fei Bao said.

"Therefore, in the past ten years, there has been no such thing as a corpse collector! The work of recovering the corpses is now in the hands of the police! Village Chief Luo said, "In the past, people who salvaged corpses did not dare to fish up after seeing the water, that is, after seeing the corpses that maintained a walking posture in the water. At this time, you have to invite the water ghost to come out! Water ghosts are also considered corpse diggers, but they specialize in salvaging water demons. After they salvaged the water demon, they would immediately do a ritual to exorcise the demon by the river, and the river demon would be driven away, and the water demon would turn back into a normal corpse. That's when we get close to the body. If you get close to the Water Demon before you do the exorcism, you may become the next Water Demon. ”

"It's the same ghost story my grandmother used to trick me when I was a kid!" Fei Bao said.

"How can this water ghost drive away the river demon?" The wolf, who had rarely spoken since just now, spoke. Just now when we came to the shore, he didn't know what he was thinking.
