Chapter 7: The Legend of Backwater Bay (6)
Strictly speaking, Liu Erye is a Taoist priest with no skills and no magic, who only knows some Taoist manipulations and taboos, and deals with some ordinary evil situations, but he only knows how to do it, and does not know its principles.
So strictly speaking, he is not a Taoist, he can only be said to be a folk 'Jianghu Warlock', he can't have any method to open the eyes of heaven, and he doesn't have that talent, but he has been such a warlock for a long time, plus he has done a lot of red and white things, and occasionally deals with the situation of evil, he naturally has accumulated a lot of unique experience, and there is a kind of intuition that cannot be said.
This kind of intuition is indescribable, even hazy, but Liu Erye can feel that the reason why he saw the worker named Niu Dazhuang was shocked, that is, his intuition made him 'see' the situation that the person in front of him was almost 'yin qi rushing'.
To put it more clearly, there is a layer of black gas wrapped around this person's forehead, and Liu Erye calls this thing 'Yin Qi Rushing to the Top'.
This situation, it's not that I haven't seen it before, but the black gas is a faint layer, Liu Erye has to close his eyes and feel it carefully to detect a little, but the black gas on this person's forehead, what is a pair of eyes, it makes Liu Erye feel that his eyes are dark, as if the black gas is about to spread to himself, how can he not be frightened?
This intuition only brings a momentary feeling, and the next moment, Liu Erye's eyes are back to normal, and standing in front of him is a sturdy man with black and yellow skin, everything is very ordinary, after all, Liu Erye will not really open his eyes, and the feeling that intuition can bring is only a moment.
However, this psychological feeling still directly affected Liu Erye's behavior, he subconsciously moved the stool under his buttocks, and the tea jar in his hand was almost unable to hold it, and the people in the room were all looking at Liu Erye a little strangely, after all, his reaction was too great.
"Second Master Liu, who are you?" The most shrewd is the second-in-command, he couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay, it's okay." In this social environment, doing things can still be accepted by the public, I am afraid that it is a feudal superstition, no matter how evil things are, I must be steady.
Liu Erye picked up the teapot and drank tea, gently covering up the past, but the first and second leaders looked at Liu Erye's thoughtful look, but in the end they didn't say anything.
Niu Dazhuang is a rough man, although he thinks that Liu Erye's behavior is a little strange, but he didn't think much about it, took the cigarette with a filter handed over by the second in command, he was happy, lit the cigarette, scratched the back of his head, smiled honestly and said: "It's nothing, everyone knows that some places in this river have to be frozen in winter, our timber transportation office is by water power, and it is not so busy in winter, but more or less some of the stored wood is busy to carry it up, this looks at the end of the year, everyone wants to finish it quickly, Let's have a happy Spring Festival."
"You get to the point." The second-in-command interrupted dissatisfied.
Niu Dazhuang smiled honestly again, I don't know what, this smile made Liu Erye's heart a little uncomfortable and uncomfortable, and he made up his mind in his heart with a groan.
"Okay, just these days everyone is working overtime, last night was not my class, but Lao Wang temporarily had something, so I was called on the top, the first half of the night was nothing, more than a dozen of us went to work and talked and laughed, but in the second half of the night, I felt uncomfortable, and I couldn't say why, I felt cold, no one wanted to speak, then it felt like I was being targeted by something, because of this, this construction site was very quiet, there was nothing to do, and later, When it was my turn to go into the water to get wood, something was wrong, and we both heard a woman crying. Speaking of this, Niu Dazhuang cautiously glanced at the people in the room, all of them were officials, what if he said that he was promoting superstition?
"It's okay, you go on." The first hand listened attentively, and the cigarette butt burned to his fingers before he came back to his senses, as if thinking of something, he encouraged Niu Dazhuang to continue.
Niu Dazhuang didn't care about anything when he had the courage, took a puff of cigarette and continued: "I'm sure it's not an illusion, the woman cried so much that she was very sad, now I am a little scared, but I didn't know what was wrong at the time, I was really not afraid, I just thought about whose mother-in-law was bullied?" I ran to the river in the middle of the night and cried, and I was so bold that I subconsciously looked around, and I really saw a woman sitting on a log crying. ”
Hearing this, everyone present gasped, not to mention the sensitive words of crying in the middle of the night, women, just say that when the wood in the timber transfer office is not carried up on weekdays, it is all soaked in water, and the water in the backwater bay will not freeze, but it is also frozen enough, who has nothing to do and sit on the wood in the water and cry? Something is wrong, something is really wrong!
Second Master Liu's face was not good-looking, but he was relatively calm, and asked, "What color is that woman wearing?" ”
Niu Dazhuang scratched his head, probably thinking back to the situation that night now, he was a little scared, and said: "It's a little far, vague and can't see clearly, like red, and like black!" Yes, wasn't the corpse fished up? It's the red robe, and Niu Dazhuang's face became a little pale, and his black, red, black, and red skin could also show this paleness.
Liu Erye's hand shook, and the lid of the tea jar 'snapped' on the tea jar, isn't this an absolute ghost? What a ghost! He doesn't know too much, but the male ghost in black and the female ghost in red are powerful, and this basic cognition can still be manifested to confuse people, which is not something he Liu Er can solve at all.
The sound of the teapot lid closing startled the people in the room, and the second-in-command asked cautiously: "Second Master Liu, do you see this?" ”
Second Master Liu was in a trance, and he didn't know what to answer to the second-in-command, so he said directly: "You let him finish talking, finish talking."
Niu Dazhuang's filter sucked the butt of the cigarette, threw it, and said with an ugly face: "Then what else to say, I didn't feel scared at the time, so I went straight over, the wood is just two or three meters from the shore, the water is not too deep, I passed, Lao Zhang also followed, where is the woman?" At that time, I was joking with Lao Zhang, saying that I didn't know if I missed my mother-in-law, just now I heard a woman crying, and saw a woman sitting on this wood crying, which scared others Lao Zhang, and pulled me away, but I couldn't walk, and my body seemed to be hooked by something. ”
"And then?" Second Master Liu actually didn't want to listen to it, he already clearly knew that this matter was definitely beyond his ability, he just asked subconsciously.
Then I looked down, this was really scared, my work clothes, that is, the waterproof pants were hooked by a foot wearing red shoes, I still wanted to subconsciously get it open, but the whole body had no strength to be stupid at the time, and I didn't know what to do, I called Lao Zhang loudly, pointed there to Lao Zhang, on the water, clearly one foot hooked my work clothes, I don't know how to hook it! Lao Zhang was also stupid, and shouted loudly to call people to come, but everyone came, no one dared to touch the foot, and pushed the wood to the shore with all hands and feet, and the foot didn't hook me, as a result, "Speaking of this, Niu Dazhuang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at the people in the house.
"Say." The words of the number one are very simple.
"As a result, the wood turned over on the shore by itself, and turned out the side facing the water, it was a big log, in short, I couldn't hold it alone, turn it over, and below that was a female corpse, holding the wood and wearing a wedding robe, it looked like a girl who was going to marry, I didn't understand how she died like this, anyway, the hands were tightly holding the wood, I remembered the previous things and didn't dare to look closely, anyway, I glanced at it, and saw a face that was completely blue, maybe frozen? Anyway, it's scary, like a new death, right? Later, everyone called the captain who was on duty that day, and then they were carried to the broken wooden house. Niu Dazhuang finally explained the discovery process of the body in detail.
"Just spent the night?" Liu Erye's heartbeat was 'sudden'.
