Chapter 206: The Yellow River Maze
We took a sailboat, and since the beginning of autumn, there has been more west wind, and besides, it is downstream, so the boatman is very effortless, basically just sitting on the bow of the boat and watching the scenery to make money. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
On this day, I walked into Shandong, and I arrived in Jinan in two or three days.
The Yellow River on the Shandong border suddenly became elevated, and it was originally a hilly area in front of it, and the murky river meandered through the valley floor of the hills.
The muddy and sandy water slapped on both banks, and the splash was high, and the water was not turbulent, but because of the twists and turns of the terrain of the hills, the Yellow River was forced to be angry.
There are lower mountain bags that have been washed by the Yellow River and are hanging in the air, and watching this corner collapse into the river at any time, it seems that a giant mouth of a monster is open on the bank, swallowing the passing ferryboat.
Encountering such an environment, the two of them stopped talking, silently looking at the water in front of them, with a serious look on their faces.
When he arrived, the boatman did not dare to be careless, and stood on the bow of the boat with a long bamboo pole, always ensuring that the boat was moving in the right direction.
Suddenly the ship shuddered, as if it had hit something.
I watched the boat boss pound in the river with a pole, as if he was trying to find out what was underwater.
It's normal for there to be reefs in the water in this hilly area, and it's like the boat boss is exploring the location of the reef.
"Looking at the appearance of the boss of this ship, he should be experienced in sailing, and he should know that there will be reefs there, he must not be looking for reefs." Qing'er told me.
When I came out, I repeatedly told her to try not to talk when there were people, and when I first got on the boat, I was quite well-behaved, and I kept silent for a long time, why can't I hold it back now?
I glared at her and said, "Do you know what the boat boss is probing in the water?" Do you know better than the boat boss about what's going on in the water? Did you also sail before? I asked her three questions in a row, and they were prickly, suggesting that she should not do so much.
At this moment, the boat we were on trembled again, as if the bottom of the boat had touched a reef slightly, and I don't know how far away this hilly area was.
Qing'er suddenly grabbed my hand and said, "If the boat sinks, don't let go of me, I'm better than you and can save you ashore." ”
What does this crow's mouth say, how can the ship sink if it is doing well? Besides, if you talk about the shipwreck in front of the ship boss, will it be a taboo for you? It is equivalent to saying words in front of the dwarves, and the people are angry and refuse to carry them, where is the boat in this place?
"Don't talk nonsense, this is a river, not a sea, there is no wind and no waves, don't say that frustrating words......" I wanted to criticize Qing'er again, and suddenly saw the boat boss kneeling on the deck, trembling in his mouth What blessed, what a god, broken very much, I can't hear clearly, but the only feeling I have is that this situation is very serious, my hand clenched Qing'er's hand, her hand is very warm.
The other people on the boat also changed color, and the bald and vicious man was so frightened that he even changed his voice: "There are water ghosts!" ”
Kelpie? I've seen that the zombie general in Wuding's tomb was burned black, and Boss Shi also said that it was a water ghost, and the water ghost was like that.
As soon as the bald man said about the water ghost, the little couple couldn't sit still, and the woman said to the man: "Brother Huang (this nickname is called, my hand holding Qing'er is a little sweaty) Didn't our uncle just let the water ghost drown, and the corpses were rotten." ”
"Ji Mei (everyone, help hold me, I'm dizzy.) Don't talk about it, the water ghost will find us when he hears it. The man said.
The thin and tall man spoke: "It's not a water ghost, a water ghost won't touch the boat, it's a big fish, a strange fish as big as a house, and legend has it that there is such a big fish in the Yellow River, which can swallow the boat in one piece." ”
The sturdy short man said: "Don't scare people, there are water ghosts and big fish, sunny and dayless, it is the body of the drowned man in the Yellow River who touches the bottom of the boat, and the boat boss is too. ”
There are a lot of ownerless corpses in the Yellow River, some have been killed for money, some have stumbled and fallen, drifting with the water, if the bottom of the boat hits in the water, according to the sound transmission route, we can't still listen to the sound in the warehouse, I still support the strange fish in my heart.
The captain of the ship was still kneeling on the deck in prayer, and it seemed that his prayer was not sincere at all, and the ship suddenly came to a standstill, for I saw that the slopes on both sides of the river suddenly did not move.
We are on a sailboat, and I said at the beginning that there is still a little wind today, and even if the boat boss does not have any operation, the ship will not stagnate, even if the ship boss is like making it difficult to stop the ship, but what is the force that makes the ship stagnate?
"It's a water ghost!" The husband of the young couple said, and took out a bag hanging around his neck from under his neck, "There is a spiritual talisman drawn by the Taoist priest of Maoshan here, and the water ghost can't harm us." This sentence was addressed to his flirtatious little daughter-in-law, not to comfort us.
I said to Miss Qing, "You sit still, I'll go out and see what can be done on this sunny day." ”
"Be careful." She said.
When I got to the deck, I pulled up the boat boss who was kowtowing like garlic and asked, "What's down there?" ”
"There are a lot of evil things in this big Yellow River, there are Yin soldiers borrowing the way, there are ghosts who have died unjustly, there are whirlpools leading to hell, I don't know what is down there, please pray that people don't mess with us, you go and inform them to quickly kneel down and worship the river god, and bless the safety of our boatload of people......" The boat boss chattered in pieces.
These rambling words were useless, and even the least suspect was not raised, and it seemed that the captain was too superstitious and had been frightened.
I had no choice but to look at it, when the boat suddenly began to shake violently, and I hurriedly crouched down, steadied myself, and climbed to the side of the boat, looking down to see what was causing trouble.
Below is the turbid water of the Yellow River, with countless small whirlpools, and there is nothing to see underwater.
At this time, something continued to hit the bottom of the boat, and the boat that hit it tossed and turned, almost knocking me into the water, and I held on to the side of the boat to barely hold my body.
The dark clouds in the sky were even darker, as if it was going to rain heavily, and the dark clouds stained the water of the Yellow River black.
The wind was blowing so hard that the canvas almost knocked the boat off, so I picked up the boat boss and said, "Put down the sail, or you will capsize after wearing it for a while." ”
The captain of the ship is now in despair, and it is all at my command, and he has lowered the sails, and the ship is not shaking so much.
The wind was blowing evilly, as if it was only blowing towards the boat, but it could not blow the boat away, and it was still shaking in place, and it seemed that something was going to detain us in the water.
I helped the captain unsail when I heard a noise in the cabin.
It seems that someone said that there was some ominous person sitting on this boat, attracting demons and monsters, and in order to defuse the disaster, it is necessary to throw that person into the river.
Who the thought of this bad move, when there is danger, it is not to fight together, but to find the reason for it on your own people! It's just a waste of bullying the soft and afraid of the hard.
Don't let me know who started it, throw your-stirring stick into the river in a moment, and be in the company of those floating corpses.
I rocked the boat boss and asked, "How can I keep the boat as close as possible?"
He had no other way but to reduce the burden on the ship as much as possible, and to hold on for a while.
To lighten the burden on the ship is to throw everyone else down.
In fact, the guy in the cabin has used this method in disguise.
I was thinking about how feasible it was for the boat boss to lighten the burden of the boat, when a flash of lightning suddenly crossed the black clouds, reflecting the black river blue, but on the blue river there were countless dead bodies, straight and straight, rising and falling with the light waves of the river blown by the wind. "Ship boss, what's going on?" I asked, carrying him.
"Those are the mysterious corpses of the Yellow River, and our boat has sailed into the corpse formation of the Yellow River." The boat boss said tremblingly.
Yellow River Hydraulics? Who are they?
Boater? Or the farmer who cleans the river?
The boat boss who often runs the boat is scared like this, what is the special ability of a boatman or a farmer who cleans the river?
"We don't have any sailors on this ship, so is there no other way than such a person?" I asked.
"Yellow River Hydraulics? How does the name feel familiar? Qing'er beside me said.
"The Yellow River hydraulics are also called the Yellow River corpse collectors, and they have the best way to deal with the mysterious corpses of the Yellow River." Said the boat boss.
The corpse fisher of the Yellow River, also known as the "Yellow River Water Ghost". Because they have been dealing with the dead and undead for many years, they have this terrifying and mysterious name.
As the name suggests, the main livelihood of the Yellow River corpse diggers is to salvage corpses.
Although the Yellow River has given birth to countless lives, it has also swallowed countless lives. There are those who are swept away by the river while playing by the river, those who fall into the river by the boat, those who commit suicide by jumping into the river, and those who are murdered for money and thrown their bodies in the Yellow River, in short, there are too many to count.
Because of this, the banks of the Yellow River have spawned the Yellow River corpse collectors, whose main job is to salvage the dead bodies in the Yellow River, and those family members who come to identify the corpses will pay a lot of money. Of course, there are also family members of the victims who take the initiative to find the corpse in the Yellow River and ask for help in finding and salvaging the corpse, and the fee in this case is naturally higher.
The livelihood of the Yellow River corpse collector has always been a topic of controversy.
