Chapter 527: Water Monkey
The next day, all of us found a good location on the hill near the small county town.
Because we couldn't find the ashes of the sunny day, we could only buy a few random women's clothes and make a quilted mound.
I went up the mountain with Sun Hanhan and Pan Donghan. While the three of us were making grave bags, I told the story of the current situation on a sunny day.
"She's actually quite pitiful, she was killed, but everyone thinks she died across the water.
Now we can't bring Qingtian's soul back to her hometown, so we can only erect a well-dressed mound for her here!"
Sun Hanhan touched his chin back and forth with his hand.
"What if a sunny day is really drowning? I think she's a little ghost, and she can even remember how long it's been since she's been dead.
It's been three years since I've been dead, but I just said that I just died three days ago. A little ghost like her might really remember the truth of her death. Maybe she just accidentally fell into the water and drowned, and then Qingtian said that she was abused to death!"
I hurriedly shook my head.
"It's impossible! People who die in the water become water ghosts, that is, water monkeys. Look at the sunny day, where does she look like a water monkey!"
As soon as Sun Hanhan heard about the water monkey, he instantly came to his senses.
"What the hell is that water monkey? I've heard from the older generation, but I've never seen it!"
I shook my head helplessly.
"I've seen water ghosts, but I haven't seen water monkeys!"
At this moment, Pan Donghan suddenly came to an end.
"Isn't it a water monkey! I know, I experienced it when I was younger!
It said it was a water monkey, but it wasn't actually a monkey at all. They are like ghosts in the water, with long white tails and look like monkeys. The main thing is to sink to the bottom of the water, and then when they see someone on the river, they pull that person to the bottom, and after killing the person, they can take their place!"
Pan Donghan said as he spoke to us slowly.
"When we were young, we all lived in the countryside! Dolls in the countryside never go to any bathing halls. We all went to the big river next to the village, and swam twice around the river without a glimpse of it, which was very refreshing!
At that time, the adults didn't care about us. Almost all children in the countryside know how to water. Sometimes, even the adults in the village went into the water with us.
I remember it quite clearly. It was almost autumn of the year, and the weather was quite hot. At that time, I was a little brother in my neighborhood, and the two of us went to bathe in the river loop at the entrance of the village.
Actually, I didn't want to go down to the river at all that day, so I made some bamboo at home and made a bird cage. The birdcage was on the rise, and I didn't want to bother with my neighbor's little brother at all. But he was young at the time, only eight or nine years old. Standing next to me and crying, I was annoyed by his crying, pointed to his nose and scolded him.
"*** can't go alone!" I never thought of it, just because I said it at the time. The boy listened to me, and as soon as he stomped his foot and turned around, he went to the river. Don't look at that kid is only eight or nine years old, and his temper is twisted. It's a tough one!
Later, my dad saw the kid writhing and walking towards the river alone.
My dad didn't think it was safe for him to go to the river alone as a child, so he asked him why he was going alone. The boy sued the wicked man first, saying that I ignored him and scolded him!
My dad took the boy back to our house and stood in front of me and pointed at me and scolded me.
After my dad scolded me, he asked me to take the kid to swim in the river
But to be honest, the river in our village is quite famous. The river in our village is called Dawang River, and our village is a 100-year-old village. It is said that there was a drought in the past, a disaster year. But I don't know why, the water of that Dawang River is always so turbulent, and it has never been dry.
It is because of this river that the people in our village have experienced so much poverty
of the age. As long as there is water in this river, the land in our village will never dry up, so we have never had too many people die in our village. net
Later, the more it was rumored, the more evil it became, and it was said that the Dawang River in our village was actually a fairy river.
It is also said that there are some gods guarding the river, so there are often some old people in our village, and every time there is a festival, they will take out some steamed buns or grain from their homes and put them by the river, in order to bribe the gods in the Dawang River.
But I don't know what the situation is, although the water of this Dawang River has not dried up, and this river is not deep, the deepest place is only 15, and your head can come out of it when you stand in it.
But, for some reason, one person dies every other year in this river. Some accidentally walked to the river, and then fell into the water and died. Some swim in the river and then all of a sudden disappear.
Anyway, every year there will be a person who is drowned by the river, and then the people in our village will spread that as long as anyone does not respect the gods living in the river in their hearts, that person will be summoned by the gods. Lose your own life!
Although this Dawangjiang dies every year. But there are still a lot of people who come to the river to swim. Because everyone always has a fluke mentality, they always feel that this person back then will not be themselves.
But there is a strange thing. There is a man surnamed Mao next door to us, and this person surnamed Mao has cattle herding in his family all year round. Their calves often come to the river to drink. The man, surnamed Mao, said that he had seen the calves standing by the river several times. And then inexplicably it disappeared!
Then after a long time, the little calf slowly appeared on the surface of the water, in fact, it had been drowned by the river.
At that time, Lao Mao next door to us told all of us that there were no immortals in the river at all, and some were actually water monkeys.
Every year, people who die in this water are dragged to the bottom by water monkeys to ask for their lives! Of course, the people in our village didn't believe what Lao Mao said. But Lao Mao kept saying that he saw it with his own eyes and saw his animals killed by water monkeys.
There are really different opinions about that river.
But that day, at the pressure of my dad, I had to take my neighbor's youngest son to the river for a swim.
When he got to the river, the boy didn't dare to go into the water at first. It was afternoon, and the river was very warm in the sun.
