Yun Lin looked at the old lady of the Han family and Han Ren, and then spoke again, "Grandma Han, Uncle Han, I let Aunt Han go today, but I don't want Yun Feng to have a few people, and I don't have my mother." We have brothers and sisters, no father and no mother, and we know the pain here. So I don't want them to become motherless children, I hope you remember this. I'm not afraid of you, I'm accumulating virtue for my father. ”

Yunlin's clear voice echoed in the sky above the small courtyard, making everyone in the courtyard listen, but they admired and sighed in their hearts. Village Chief Zhao secretly praised in his heart, this Yunlin will definitely not be simple in the future, these few words are beautiful enough. "Okay, since Yunlin doesn't pursue it, then this matter is over. Boss Han, hurry up and take your daughter-in-law home, we still have something to do here. Big guy, let's do whatever we need to do, there's still a lot of work waiting over there. Let's have a good drink later. ”

The old lady of the Han family was so angry that she couldn't do anything, so she had to leave angrily. Han Ren helped his wife and hurried home. The rest of these people saw that there was nothing to do, and they all went back to work, and those daughters-in-law also hurried to cook.

Yun Lin led the younger siblings into the house, and then everyone sat down. "Where did these fifteen taels of silver come from? I haven't heard the eldest sister say before, our family still has this silver? Yun Lin frowned, feeling a little incredible.

Yunni thought about it carefully, and didn't remember that the eldest sister said about it, "Maybe when our mother was still there, she hid it, and then she forgot about it, right?" "There's nothing else they can't think of.

Naturally, the silver was loosely stuffed under the cabinet in the first place. It's just that Yunni patronized her mother at that time, and she didn't care about these things at all, so she didn't know about it.

Everyone thought the same thing, Yun Lin felt that he was still not sure, "In this way, let's put the money away and wait for the eldest sister to come back and ask clearly." The family still has enough money, so we must not touch it. If we don't figure out where we came from, we can't use it indiscriminately. Yun Lin took the money and took it to the back room and hid it.

The wooden platoon has been floating on the river for a month, and sometimes because of the weather, it will be delayed for some days, and now they are about to arrive in Ji'an Prefecture. From here, the river is much wider than upstream. However, don't think that the next step will be smooth sailing, there are still many treacherous shoals and evil whistles on the river.

Yun Xue recalled the various treacherous shoals and evil whistles she had passed before, and she was also a little scared in her heart. Along the way, what tiger whistle, threshold whistle, stone whistle, starry whistle, old sow whistle, etc., all kinds of strange names, all kinds of strange whistles. To tell the truth, they really went all the way and walked frighteningly.

"It's the mother's whistle ahead, everyone should pay attention. Plug your ears. Sun Changhai in front shouted again.

This mother's whistle is not very dangerous. But when the water flows by, it makes a strange noise, like a mother crying for her son. That kind of mourning and earnest sorrow, the kind of sorrow that deeply calls for the death of his son, is undoubtedly reflected in this flowing water. When the wooden row is here, all the people who put the row will be infected in their hearts, and then sadness will come from it. Some even forgot the direction of the wooden raft, and then, faced with the threat of death.

Fortunately, Li Qingxiang understood these things very well, so he asked everyone to prepare cotton before, and when the time came, he could block his ears to avoid being confused by the sound of water. Everyone quickly took out cotton balls and stuffed them into their ears, and sure enough, the sound could no longer be confusing.

The wooden platoon carefully walked through the whistle, slowly passed the mother's whistle, and when it came out, the big guy breathed a sigh of relief and took out the cotton ball in his ear.

"Uncle Li, why do you say this is such an evil sect?" A kid asked.

"I heard that there are often some mothers here, summoning the souls of their sons by the river. Later, I don't know what happened, but the river made the same cry as those mothers. Then as soon as a number of wooden handles arrived here, they were so fascinated by the sound that they forgot to take the big bowl in their hands, and naturally there was no good fruit to eat. It's getting more and more evil here. Li Qingxiang also had palpitations, he took a puff of cigarette, and then continued, "When I first played the rehearsal, when I arrived here, I was also confused, and what I was thinking about was my mother. Later, it was an old wooden knob who shouted loudly in my ear before waking me up. ”

Everyone thought about the situation just now, and they also felt afraid, and one of the first people sat on the top of the wooden row, "Oh my mother, I put this row smoothly this year, and I won't come next year, this guy is too scary." ”

"Scary? Hmph, our river row is basically old guys, where there is a situation, you can avoid it in advance, it is already rare. You haven't seen any other river rows, if there are more beginners like you, it may not be the same. Li Qingxiang looked at the kid and couldn't help grinning.

Before Li Qingxiang could finish his words, Sun Changhai shouted in front of him, "Pay attention, stop and dock." ”

Everyone was stunned, it's only noon, what are you doing on the shore? Yun Xue also felt strange in her heart, and just wanted to ask, but Zheng Song said, "There is a river lined up in front, you see." ”

Yun Xue looked far away, and sure enough, about five or six miles ahead, there was a sharp turn, and there were wooden rows of stacks. Everyone hurriedly used their hands to exert their strength, one moved the cat's teeth, and the other moved the big one, and gradually moved closer to the river.

This wooden raft is docked, and it is not something that can be finished with words, it takes a long time. When their rafts reached the shore, they were half a mile away from the bottom of the stone slab. The wooden gang in front of it seemed to have more than a dozen people, but now the wooden rafts have been scattered, and most of them are piled up under the stone stones. Others, like matchsticks, floated down the river.

Sun Changhai jumped off the wooden raft, came to the front, and saw that those people also knew each other. "Ah, Lao Zhao, why are you?"

A person's face was covered with blood, and the blood had dried up, but he didn't bother to wipe it. "Alas, don't mention it, when the old platoon arrived here, he couldn't stop it, and he suddenly touched the top of the stone. Of our sixteen boys, two died, one had one leg broken, and the rest were all more or less colored. I was beaten by the slag of wood that flew out, but it wasn't a big deal. The man said with a sigh of mourning.

On the riverside, the bodies of two people were stopped, and it seemed that they had just been salvaged from nearby.

Sun Changhai hurriedly said to the people behind him, "Quick, big guy, help, find a place and bury those two brothers." Alas. This is the life of our people. ”

When Yun Xue saw this, she couldn't help but think of her father, thinking that her father was just like these people at that time, right? That's it, the guys who were put into the row found a random place to bury it. Yun Xue felt a pain in her heart, and tears couldn't help but fall.

Zhengsong saw it and hurriedly came over to persuade him. After a long time, Yunxue stopped crying.

Everyone over there found their own belongings, and then they found a place with good terrain by the river and buried the two people. Li Dayou got two pieces of wood, split them in the middle, and then stood in front of the grave and wrote the names of the two people.

In this place, there are not only these two new graves, but also a dozen old graves.

"Catch up, catch up slowly, there will be 3,000 ghosts sacrificing to the river a year." In this sentence, the ruthlessness and danger of the Yalu River are spoken. Every year, there will always be countless people who die in this rolling river.

The wooden gang in front of him had already begun to look for someone to put the scattered wood back together. And the key is this tall pile under the stone stone, which must be picked up by someone.

Along the banks of the Yalu River, there is a kind of person called Pai Eater. This kind of person specializes in helping to pick up the stacked wooden rafts and then make money. This is not a fun thing, if you don't get it right, before you can pick it up, you will fall into the crack of the log and be crushed to death. But there are countless people who are engaged in this kind of industry one after another. For them, perhaps the money they earn from successfully picking up a flip is enough for their family to spend for two or three years.

There were a few people gathered on the shore, each of them holding an iron rod in his hand, which was called picking a better rod. These are the people who come to pick the stacks. After they had measured the size of the stacks, they were discussing them one by one.

And here, the leader surnamed Zhao has already begun to shout the price. "Open a higher price, fifty taels of silver."

Fifty taels is really enough for a family to eat and drink well for two or three years. A few people on the shore were a little excited, and one of them, carrying a better pick, jumped onto the scattered logs under the stone stones. I saw him deftly like a tanuki, jumping on the floating logs, and gradually approaching the stacks.

The man carefully examined where the wood was stuck, but he fell through the cracks in the log without paying attention. At this moment, people were directly crushed into slag by huge logs. The people on the shore couldn't help but close their eyes, "Alas. The patriarch sighed.

In this world, there is nothing that is unearned, and if you want to get rich, you have to fight with your life. If you fight hard, you can live a good life, but if you can't fight, just like the person in front of you, you lose your life.

The people on the shore were silent, and the danger in them made them dare not step forward easily.

"Sixty taels, we've done it for nothing this season, sixty taels, is anyone coming?"

"Eighty taels, eighty taels, damn, we can't earn anything this time." The second cabinet of the wooden gang shouted loudly.
