Chapter 268: "Him" (Monthly Pass Plus 9)
Looking at the floating objects on the sea, as the sea washed closer and closer to the island, not only did the hairs on his hands stand up, but the goosebumps all over his body also fell to the ground.
It's getting clearer and clearer.
At this time, he really wanted to gouge out his eyes, it's okay, why is his eyesight so good?
Ye Huimei felt that the bag in her hand was almost full at this time, and she looked up for it, wanting to ask her third brother or his father to help drag it, but she saw his third brother standing there stupidly.
"Third brother, what are you doing? What are you doing, come and help me...... Ah.........h
Ye Huimei turned her head to look at her third brother's line of sight as she spoke, and suddenly screamed, her face turned pale with fright, and she quickly closed her eyes in an instant.
"Don't look at ......" Ye Yaodong said that it was too late, she had already seen it.
Ye's father and Ye's mother were also startled by her screams, and hurriedly raised their heads and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? Why are you so surprised? You girl, what's going on today? That's what ...... called."
Ye Mu complained and spoke, and at the same time walked out of the corner quickly and walked towards Ye Huimei, "Why are you doing this?" ”
Ye Huimei cried with a sad face, her eyes were closed, she didn't dare to open them, and pointed to the sea casually, so that her mother could see for herself.
Ye Yaodong stopped in front of his mother in advance, and said loudly: "There is a male corpse floating on the sea in front of you, don't look at it, turn around." ”
Yang Qi gathers faces, men face heavy, and drowned faces must face down. Yin Qi gathers on the back, so the woman's back is heavy, and the drowned must face up.
So Ye Yaodong only knew at a glance that it was a male corpse, and there were few women who went to sea, and the dead were generally men.
Ye Mu was also frightened when she heard this, she felt a little chill all over her body, her cold hair stood on end, and her voice was trembling, "Yes... Is it a corpse? Drifting from our side? ”
As soon as Father Ye walked out of the reef pile, he heard the conversation between the two, and he was also shocked, and he also looked ahead.
With just one glance, he felt that his scalp was a little numb instantly, and his complexion was not very good-looking, "What...... How did we meet you? ”
Encountering a corpse at sea can be a good thing or a bad thing.
Seaside people are very superstitious, there is a saying.
If you encounter a corpse at sea, if you are afraid to retreat and dare not approach, and when you don't see it, you will run away, and then the ghost will follow you.
If you are afraid to turn a blind eye, then 'he' will always haunt you, and you will also have bad luck again and again, everything will not go well, and in serious cases, you may be evil, or even directly substitute for your life!!
If you can endure the fear and disgust, salvage 'him', find an island and bury 'him'......
On the contrary, you will be blessed by 'him', and you will have good luck and good things.
The probability of encountering this is not large, but it is not impossible, often walking by the river, how can there be no wet shoes......
Father Ye thought of this superstitious statement, and Ye Yaodong had already thought of it, the father and son stood together, looked at each other silently, and no one said anything for the time being.
They are all ordinary people, and it is normal for them to be afraid.
The corpse in front of him has been hovering on the edge of the island with the waves washing away, no matter how the waves hit, they can't roll 'him' back into the sea, but they just push 'him' towards the island again and again, but they can't let him run aground.
It's just going back and forth and going backward and backward all the time......
It seems to be forcing the father and son to make a decision as soon as possible......
Although Ye Mu was told in advance that she didn't see the corpse, she was also a little panicked, and she opened her mouth and asked, "Then what should we do now?" ”
She thought of a story circulating in the village again, and then said in a panic: "The Lin Dashan couple who lived there before in the back of the village, I heard that they met on the sea... When I met this, I originally wanted to fish, but I just got close to the net, and after seeing my face, I was so scared that I threw it back into the sea, and ran away, and within seven days, the couple was... I didn't ...... No ......."
The more Ye Mu thought about it, the whiter her face became......
Ye Huimei was even more frightened when she heard this, and grabbed her mother's arm tightly.
As a mother, Mother Ye saw her daughter close her eyes in fear, her eyelashes were still trembling, and the hand holding her arm was also shaking there, and she slapped again and again to soothe.
"It's okay, it's okay...... Don't be afraid...... If you don't think about it, it's okay, with your father and your third brother here, let's go, I'll take you to the corner and wait, don't stand here. ”
Ye Huimei nodded like pounding garlic and followed her mother to the corner.
It was only a moment after the incident happened, Ye Yaodong watched the corpses keep moving forward and backward, as if he recognized them, turned his head and swallowed his saliva dryly, before he said, "Go up, daddy......"
When he first saw it, he was silent for a while, not only panicked when he saw the corpse, but he also thought of his fate with 'him' in his previous life.
In any case, how could he bury 'him'.
But buried and buried, he also needs a little construction in his heart, he is just an ordinary person.
"Well, come on, go on, put it again...... Bring the spatula with you, and it will be easy to dig a pit for a while......"
"It's just floating to this island, drag it up, get it up the mountain and bury it, and you don't have to salvage it, and you don't have to get it on the boat......"
"Uh-huh, let's go and drag it up first, so as not to be swept away by the waves, and then we will be miserable."
"There's nothing to be afraid of, it's ...... face down"
"Well, there's nothing to be afraid of, burying people is also a merit."
The father and son encouraged each other to move forward, but the more they walked, the more panicked they became, but fortunately, the two also had a companion, and a person would really be scared to death.
When they got closer, they could clearly see that the corpse was swollen in a large circle, and there were many messy seaweeds wrapped around its body, as well as many insect eggs, and the wriggling animals, and the bare skin on the back of the neck had large corpse spots, and it was obvious that it had been dead for a while.
The father and son looked at each other, and there was obvious palpitation in their eyes!
"Dad, go over there alone......" Ye Yaodong swallowed his saliva and pointed in the direction as he spoke.
Now that the tide has receded, and a large area of the beach has been exposed, Ye Yaodong turned his head and saw that on their side, there was no rocks on the island, only a pile of rubble.
It is more convenient to drag it up the mountain, the area of the beach here is too small every day, if it is buried in the beach, digging up the bottom is full of water, not to mention, a few big waves will easily wash up the corpses underneath, then they will be buried in vain, and it is more appropriate to pull them to the mountain.
The father and son endured the nausea, and with the buoyancy of the water, dragged the corpse to the side of the isolated island.
Fortunately, both of them were wearing gloves, and the corpse had just been dragged to the beach, sliding all the way to leave not only traces of dragging, but also special water stains, a little green and a little black, which was the corpse water left by the swollen and broken skin of the corpse soaked in the dragging...
And there are also some white disgusting critters.
There are actually a lot of fungi in the ocean, and the whole body is covered with sea lice and small arthropods.
Sea lice can be understood as maggots in the sea......
The father and son endured not to look down and look back, and walked bravely up the mountain.
I didn't go very far, but I walked to a place where the waves couldn't hit, and the open space around me was big enough to dig a big hole.
The two threw the corpse into the corner, tried not to give even a look, and still let "him" lie on his stomach, and then one of them took a spatula and worked hard to dig a pit.
This desert island has not been touched for a long time, the surrounding trees are dense, dense, and the trees are still green and evergreen in winter, and it is also a feng shui treasure buried here, directly facing the sea, and some people on their seaside deliberately set up cemeteries on the surrounding desert islands.
The father and son dug hard, there was work to do, and it was not easy to think in their hearts, and they were much calmer, but the soil was very compact, not very easy to dig, and they didn't have hoes yet, only shovels for the sea.
After digging for almost two hours, the two of them dug a large pit that could accommodate one person to lie down.
"Almost, right?"
Father Ye nodded, and dug twice more before saying, "It's almost, put him down again." ”
"Hmmm......"
There's nothing to be afraid of when it comes to the end, I'm busy with the last step, stretching my head is a knife, and shrinking my head is also a knife.
The father and son walked towards the corpse, and in a matter of moments, the entire corpse was already crawling with a white animal.
Ye Yaodong moved his five fingers and stood in the same direction as his father, the two of them turned their shoulders and one turned their waists, turning the body over......
Moment...... In the winter, both father and son were covered in cold sweat, and their scalps were numb......
Their eyes snapped shut, and their heads looked into the open space beside them.
"One...... One person on one side...... Lift it down ......"
Father Ye has a big tongue when he speaks......
Ye Yaodong nodded in a panic, walked to the feet of the corpse, and ignored the disgusting things on 'him', and carried his father to the pit, one head and one foot.
Then I hurriedly used my hands to stir the dirt and sprinkle it on 'him' face, covering 'him' first, it was so scary......
By the way, get rid of the small animals in your hands first.
The father and son pushed the freshly dug up soil down again, until the body was covered up and there was an extra bag of dirt on the ground, and the two breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Yaodong took off the gloves on his hand, threw them aside and said to Ye's father: "Dad, you go to the boat and bring three incense sticks, I'll wait here, and bring the noodles and dried mussels by the way." ”
Father Ye nodded, "I'll go and come back quickly." ”
"Well, call my mother and little sister too, come over and bow for a while."
Just in case, they all have incense on board.
After burying the person, Ye Yaodong's heart was also settled, and he was not afraid, he folded his hands and muttered in his mouth: "Brother, since I have met, I will definitely find you a place to live, I hope you will have everything in your next life, and you will be rich and noble........."
The blessing was prayed for a while, and it wasn't long before his father came over with his mother and the frightened little sister.
He comforted: "It's okay, don't be afraid, it's already buried, let's put on incense and bow." ”
The two nodded.
Father Ye put the noodles and dried mussels he brought in front of the grave, and also placed a bowl of tea, "Brother, we don't have any decent sacrifices on the ship, you will ...... it."
Ye Yaodong took out the lighter in his pocket, lit the three pillars of incense, and after the whole family bowed three times together, he inserted it in front of the grave, and he folded his hands and bowed three times.
Then he said to his family: "Let's go, it's okay." ”
When writing about the corpse, I originally wanted to describe it in detail, and I went to Baidu to find photos, and I was scared enough, and I didn't dare to write in detail, but I still had pictures in my mind at this time
