Chapter 14: The Strange Story of the Fishing Village (I)
"It's okay, what are you racing!"
"Hey, don't throw up on my legs!"
The ultra-high-speed driving along the way made Chen Chun understand what the pain of life could not bear, and after nearly an hour, the two stopped on the bridge, and Chen Chun immediately vomited as soon as he got out of the car, and Zhao Tian on the side covered his nose with disgust.

Chen Chun took the tissue handed over by Zhao Tian and wiped his mouth, holding on to the railing and being blown by the wind, he suddenly felt much more comfortable.
The bridge where the car is parked is the only way to Boao, one of the famous "Top Ten Cultural Towns" in Hainan and the permanent site of the Boao Forum for Asia, an international conference organization.
Even if Boao is good, it is not the destination of this trip, and the Donghai fishing village under the bridge is the destination this time. There is a river under the bridge, and a village on the shore is full of smoke, which is the destination of this trip, "Donghai Fishing Village".
Donghae Fishing Village is located in an excellent location, on the left hand side of the bridge is Donghae Fishing Village, on the right hand side is Zhenhai Guanyin, passing by the Zen Temple, forming a triangular pattern. Zhenhai Guanyin is the top corner, the fishing village of the East China Sea and the Zen temple are adjacent, and they are covered by the Buddha's light and treasure all day long, and the villagers must have lived very satisfactorily.
"Don't be in heat, it's time to go." Zhao Tian's voice came from behind him, and when he turned his head back, he had already returned to the car.
After discussing with the two, they decided to park the car under the bridge and walk to the Donghai fishing village, which is fortunately not far away, but not much away.
The two took their luggage and walked to the Donghai fishing village on foot, and walked for nearly half an hour before coming to the entrance of the village. Looking at the Donghai fishing village from the front, there is no wishful thinking as Chen Chun thought, at least there are a few flat-roofed houses in his own village, but there are rows of brick houses here, and there is not even a figure on the road.
"This is the East China Sea Fishing Village?" Zhao Tian wondered. If you hadn't seen the stone tablet at the entrance of the village engraved with the four big characters of "Donghai Fishing Village", you would even think that this is just an abandoned village.
"Impossible, aside from other reasons, after all, this place is close to a big river, and the villagers are fishing for a living, how can it be so depressed."
Zhao Tian shook his head and did not answer. A shout caught the attention of the two men, and a stout man stood outside a house in the village and waved at them.
Chen Chun finally saw the villagers, and hurriedly pulled Zhao Tian and ran over, and Chen Chun couldn't help but be surprised when he stood in front of the villagers.
The man looked to be in his thirties, in the prime of life, but the man did not have any vitality, he was hunched up, his eyelids drooped, and he looked very haggard.
Although such men are common, the reason why Chen Chun was surprised was not this, but that the man's left leg was gone, and his trouser leg was tied in a knot. From the way the man walked, Chen Chun could naturally notice the abnormality, it stands to reason that the disabled person who has amputated his leg naturally needs to use a support to support his body, but the man in front of him has empty hands, obviously not adapting to the current changes.
"What are you doing here?" The man asked.
"Hello, we are here for tourism, can you tell us why the village has become like this?" Chen Chun took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to the man.
The man stretched out his hand to collect the cigarette, sighed, and then said: "If you are here to travel, then go to Boao, our village is not the same as it used to be." ”
"Not the same as it used to be?" Chen Chun was puzzled and asked, "What was the village like before?" ”
"You don't know, a few months ago the village was very prosperous, close to the big river, so most of the villagers were fishermen, and at that time the hotels in the big cities even cooperated with us." Speaking of this, the man showed a sad face, sighed again, and continued: "Who would have thought that a strange thing had happened, and in the early morning of that day, the villagers discussed a big business to fill their pockets. But the villagers who went out that day disappeared inexplicably, although the river is very big, but so many people are missing and it is impossible for no one to see it, so we called the police, but days and weeks passed, and the people were still not found, and the police did not have a letter, just like they disappeared inexplicably. ”
Chen Chun frowned, and then asked, "So what's going on in the village now?" ”
"You all saw it, after the accident, the villagers thought it was haunted, and the young people were even more afraid, and all the people who worked outside took their families from the village, and there is no one here now."
Zhao Tian interjected at this time, pointed to the man's severed leg and asked, "What's wrong with your leg?" ”
Chen Chungang wanted to cover Zhao Tian's mouth with his hands and secretly scolded Zhao Tian for revealing people's scars, but the man smiled and said, "You don't believe it." ”
Zhao Tian smiled: "Say it and listen to it." ”
The man's eyes fell on Zhao Tian, and Zhao Tian also stared at the man, the two looked at each other and smiled, the man opened the cigarette that Chen Chun had just given, took out one and handed it to the two.
After taking the cigarette, Chen Chun stared at the man directly, and had no time to light the fire, but Zhao Tian did look insignificant, and took out the lighter on the chair next to it.
The man took a deep puff, spit out thick smoke, and said slowly: "I didn't have this leg a few days ago, that night I felt that the police and the villagers were unreliable, so I took a homemade wooden boat to find out, I could only row with a flashlight in the dark night, and then something strange suddenly happened, guess what." ”
"Clothes!"
"Bloodstains!"
Chen Chun and Zhao Tian replied loudly, but the man shook his head, and the two of them were stunned when he said two words, and the cigarette in his hand fell.
"Human flesh!"
Chen Chun took a step back, with an expression of disbelief, shook his head and said, "How is this kind of thing possible!" ”
"Chen Chun, don't interrupt, you continue." Zhao Tian stood up and stepped on the cigarette on the ground that had not been half smoked, his eyes were very serious.
Chen Chun was also puzzled when he saw Zhao Tian like this, although he couldn't believe it, he still closed his mouth and stood aside silently and listened.
The man didn't seem to see the reaction of the two, his eyes were blurred, uninterrupted, and he said slowly: "That's right, what I saw that day can't go wrong, it's an arm that is about to lose its palm, only a section!" I couldn't be mistaken, and there was a black shadow under the water, which I shone with a flashlight, so I didn't dare to go deeper, and went straight back, but the accident happened, and my oars broke, silently broken. ”
"What does the fracture look like?" Zhao Tian asked.
"I didn't pay attention, I just wanted to run for my life and just throw away the oars." The man said this in a loud voice, and it was also shouted out.
Chen Chun touched his chin and wondered, "How did you come back without the oars?" Could it be that you swam back? ”
The man nodded, but before he could speak, Zhao Tian replied: "You didn't swim back, you can't swim!" ”
"I ......"
"Wait, Zhao Tian, why did you say he couldn't swim?" Chen Chun asked with a frown, very disgusted by Zhao Tian's sudden move.
Zhao Tian sighed, put his hands behind the back of his head, and said: "People who are often in contact with water will gradually become resistant to water, and their fingers will become depressed after a long period of contact, and water will enter the human body through capillaries, and the hands are active in the water, and the palms, especially the fingers, will stimulate the nerves to contract automatically after long-term soaking, but you don't have these characteristics." You said that most of the villagers here are fishermen, and you must be one of the minority, which means that you are not a fisherman at all! ”
Zhao Tian took a breath and said sharply: "Say, why are you lying to us!" ”
