Located in the suburbs of Xinhai City, backed by the magnificent Xinlan River, most of the people here relied on the river to eat the river and engaged in water-related occupations in the early years.

After the development of Xinhai City, most of the young people here went to Xinhai to work hard, and there were only old and weak women in the whole village.

Even though the new sea is not far away, it still maintains many old traditions.

The corpse digger is one of them.

As a member of the Yin Xing, the main thing the corpse digger does is to salvage the corpses of people who have drowned from the rivers.

Among them, the most famous is the Yellow River corpse fisher.

Uncle Da is a corpse digger, although he is over half a hundred years old, his body still has protruding muscles, and his bronzed skin is full of power.

It's just that because of dealing with corpses for a long time, there is a lot of yin qi on his body, and he looks much older than his actual age.

Uncle Da was calm in nature, and when he saw me, he did not take me to the master's house, but took me to his house and told me the whole story.

This is the unique stability of the corpse digger.

It's very simple to say, a month ago, someone found Uncle Da, saying that his daughter accidentally fell into the river, and hoped to pay Uncle Da to help and fish out his daughter's body.

This is a very common thing for corpse collectors, and Uncle Da did not refuse, and took his apprentice to Xinlanjiang to collect corpses.

At the beginning, everything was normal, and Uncle Da also successfully fished out a female corpse from the Xinlan River, although the female corpse was bitten beyond recognition by fish and shrimp, judging from the clothes on her body, it was the daughter of the owner's family.

After the corpse is buried, the drowned person cannot be buried in the water, Uncle Da according to the practice of the corpse collector, buried the female corpse on the hill south of the village.

The body was buried, and Uncle Da took the money and left.

As usual, the matter is done.

But he didn't want to, after Uncle Da went home, he found that there was a puddle of water in front of his gate for several days.

And the lord's family also came to him, saying that there were also traces of water in front of his house.

The water ghost came to the door, which is a very common weirdness for corpse diggers.

Uncle Da didn't care, and ran to the grave with the main family to check.

Only then did it be discovered that the mountains and rivers had invaded the tomb and soaked the entire coffin in water.

The burial ground was completely turned into a water field.

Uncle Da immediately moved the grave.

This time, the trail did not appear at the gate again, but by the bedside.

Whether it is Uncle Da or the host's family, every day when he gets up, he will see a puddle of water on the floor next to his bed.

The master's family was frightened, and Uncle Da was puzzled, so he had to go up the mountain again to see the grave.

The newly relocated grave, like the previous one, was still blistered.

The long blisters rusted the coffin nails, leaving the whole coffin a little loose.

At this moment, Uncle Da felt that something was wrong.

The burial site chosen this time did not pass by mountains and water at all, and there was no groundwater, and the water soaked in the coffin actually flowed out of the female corpse.

Uncle Da planned to open a museum to exorcise evil spirits, but at this time, a message came from the village downstream.

The village downstream recovered the corpse of a woman from the river, who was naked, but very well preserved, and had not been bitten by fish and shrimp. She is the daughter of the master's family.

The daughter's body was found, but who was the female corpse wearing the clothes of the master's daughter?

Uncle Da helped the master's daughter bury while looking for clues to the female corpse.

However, something even more unexpected happened.

The DNA identification results of the female corpse showed that the female corpse was also the daughter of the owner's family.

In the midst of everyone's circle, the host told everyone one thing.

It turned out that the owner's family gave birth to two daughters that year, and the eldest daughter died of illness when she was three years old.

A few years later, I have my current daughter.

When the three-year-old child grew up in the water, he also snatched the clothes of his drowned sister, and for a while, the story spread around.

The host had no choice but to ask Uncle Da to make another move, but this time, Uncle Da did not agree.

After saying the matter, Uncle Da said to me while drinking wine: "The corpse grew up in the water, I followed my father to become a corpse collector at the age of 16, and now it has been more than 40 years, and I have never heard of it.

After this incident, I also asked some seniors, and finally got a little bit of information.

That's the dragon king girl, the dragon king girl can't touch it, where to get it and where to bury it. ”

Uncle Da and I talked about the Dragon King Girl in detail, and the so-called Dragon King Girl is related to the sacrifices in ancient times.

At that time, people believed that there was a dragon king under the water, and there would be boys and girls who would sacrifice to the dragon king, hoping to be blessed by the dragon king.

Most of the sacrificial boys and girls were drowned, but some of them grew up in the water as if they were alive.

This is the dragon king girl, that is, the person who is favored by the dragon king.

They grew up in the Dragon Palace and became the handmaidens and boys of the Dragon King.

Fishing out the dragon king girl is like robbing the dragon king's maid, the dragon king will bring disasters, not to mention, the dragon king girl will also turn into a powerful ghost because of her dragon energy.

It's just that with the gradual interruption of the sacrifice, the dragon king girl has not appeared for many years.

Uncle Da sighed and said: "I guess that the eldest daughter of the master's family did not die, she should have fallen into suspended animation, or was buried by water, and then was taken by the dragon king and became a maid." ”

I frowned, to be honest, I hadn't heard the Dragon King's Daughter say either.

What's more, there can be no dragon king in this world, and the legendary dragon king girl may be a special kind of weirdness.

"Uncle Da," I thought for a while and said, "Didn't you just say that the dragon princess, where to get and where to bury?" Just bury the body back to Xinlanjiang. ”

Uncle Da gave me a blank look: "Water burial has long been banned, besides, alas, I'll take you to the cemetery of the Dragon King Maiden to see you first." ”

"Don't notify the host?"

"Don't notify, Xiaolong, you are a member of the Huang family, and I also believe that you are very strong, but, this time is really different, if you are not completely sure, don't touch the dragon princess."

I was very confused, but I could also feel Uncle Da's kindness and did not refuse.

In the afternoon, Uncle Da took me to Nanshan, where the dragon princess was buried.

Around and down, we soon arrived in front of a pool of water.

Uncle Da pointed to the lake and said to me, "The dragon princess is buried there." ”

I looked up and saw that there was a tomb except for the water.

"All this water is coming from the corpse of the woman?"

Uncle Da nodded: "Yes, not only that, but the terrain here is also changing with the time of burial, originally this was a small hill, but now the whole depression has formed a waterhole, if it is not for the power of the Dragon King, how can it have such a great ability to change the landform?" ”

I nodded subconsciously, I still didn't believe in the existence of the Dragon King, but the scene in front of me still exceeded my expectations.

Uncle Da said: "You can take a look, don't worry, I have checked, as long as you don't go into the water, there will be no danger, if after reading it, you are still sure, Uncle Da, even if I give up this old life, I will fish out the coffin for you." ”
