Event 13:

On September 21, 1929, at noon, several children in Shanhe Village were still playing on the street, and the adults were busy all morning and tired, so they took the lunch break to rest, so there was no one on the street.

The children were playing on the street for a while, and when they were bored, they suddenly noticed a small whirlwind on the road. It was very hot and there was not a hint of wind, and the sudden appearance of a small whirlwind made the children particularly excited.

Originally, such a small whirlwind suddenly appeared, which was a strange phenomenon, but because there were several children at that time, as soon as there were many people, some boys began to be reckless, and they were more daring than anyone else, so they coaxed to follow behind this small whirlwind.

Unexpectedly, this little whirlwind never dissipated, but it spun all the way forward, and after a while, it brought the children to the Black Duck River.

At that time, there were a few timid people, and they always heard the adults say how scary this black river was, so when they saw the black duck river coming with this little whirlwind, they all stopped far away and stopped coming forward. However, there were three fourteen or fifteen-year-old half-grown children, who loved to be reckless, and followed this whirlwind all the way to the water's edge.

Then a group of children on the shore saw a terrible scene: the whirlwind circled the three children several times, and then whirled into the river of black ducks and disappeared. Immediately afterwards, the three children slowly walked into the river.

The children on the shore were so frightened that when they were older, they began to call the names of the three children, wanting them to come back, and with each shouting, the three children would pause and then continue walking towards the river.

A group of children on the shore shouted in unison, but even if their voices were broken, they couldn't stop the three of them from walking into the water step by step, and finally they didn't even go in.

It was already late at night, and He Wencai organized people to salvage the dead bodies the next day, including a seventeen-year-old boy named Li Feng, who was familiar with water, and also jumped into the river to find someone.

In this way, it was not salvaged for a long time, and later the villagers found that Li Feng was also missing.

For several days, Li Feng and the parents of the three children were crying and crying for the corpses, and finally used fishing nets to retrieve the four dead bodies. Li Feng's two legs and waist were each hugged tightly by three other corpses.

But when Li Feng went into the water, it had been a night since the three children drowned, and it was said that they had already died, so how did they hold Li Feng?

Event 14:

On October 2, 1929, the villagers of Shanhe Village were busy with the autumn harvest, and the tenant Li Qi was taking his wife and children to harvest crops in the field, when he saw that the sky was getting more and more gloomy, and there was a muffled thunder rolling in the distance, and it was estimated that there would be a heavy rain.

But Li Qi and his wife wore straw hats on their heads and continued to harvest crops.

Soon, the rain poured down, and the crops were quickly harvested, so the two of them braved the rain to harvest, and they poured it in the rain for most of the day, until the last bit of crops was also harvested, the two straightened up, looked around, and suddenly found that not far from the Black Duck River, there were two figures.

On closer inspection, it was a woman with a small child, with her back to them, facing the river.

Li Qi and his wife's first reaction was: Who is this, can't you think of jumping into the river?

So the two of them winked at each other, and walked in the direction of the woman and the child. When they walked to a position not far behind them, Li Qi's wife shouted:

"Sister, which village, it's raining heavily, let's take shelter in our shack."

The woman didn't move.

The two walked forward again, Li Qi's wife shouted again, and then the woman turned around, and then Li Qi and his wife were horrified to find that the woman and the child next to her were constantly spitting muddy water and sand out of their mouths.

The two of them were so frightened that they clung to each other and took a few steps back, and then they found that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the water of the Black Duck River had risen to the position where they were standing.

Li Qi glanced at the woman with fear again, and suddenly thought of something, so frightened that he grabbed his wife and ran back desperately.

When Li Qi was a child, the Black Duck River also flooded once due to heavy rainfall, and the flood water overflowed at that time, almost flooding the entire village. It was also the autumn harvest season in October, and a mother and son drowned in that location.

The flood was covered with sediment and was very dirty. But I didn't expect that after the water receded, the bodies of the mother and son were still on the beach on the shore and were not washed away. When the family went to collect the corpses, a large amount of sediment flowed from the mouths of the two corpses when they moved the corpses.

Event 15:

In 1929, after the torrential rain began on October 2, Shanhe Village had been raining heavily every day for more than ten days, and as the river rose, many things were washed down from the upstream, including a corpse.

The corpse was a middle-aged man in his forties, with wide eyes and a swollen belly.

The villagers guessed that the people upstream drowned and floated down, so He Wencai reported to the village. Two days later, people from other villages came to claim the body, and it was a man in his thirties.

The man recognized it as his brother at a glance, and he said that his brother had accidentally fallen into the water and was washed away when the water was rising.

So the younger brother hired an ox cart to carry the corpse of his brother and prepared to load it on the cart and transport it back, but while he was moving, a mouthful of yellow water suddenly squirted out of the mouth of the corpse, and it directly hit the younger brother's face, and the yellow water was extremely fishy and smelly.

At this time, a sharp-eyed villager found that the elder brother had bruised strangulation marks on his neck, so he casually asked the younger brother, but the younger brother was very panicked and couldn't speak, which made some of the people present a little puzzled.

The people of Shanhe Village have always loved gossip, and when they have nothing to gossip, they talk about the strangulation marks on the elder brother's neck, maybe he was killed, if he was killed, why isn't the younger brother in a hurry, isn't it the younger brother who killed him?

It's all about it, but it's just small talk.

As a result, a few days later, He Wen went to the countryside on an errand, and came back to say that the younger brother was the murderer of his brother and had been arrested by the gendarmerie.

Event XVI

On October 28, 1929, the Black Duck River was frozen.

When Li Zheng He Wencai slept until midnight, he suddenly jumped up, screamed and ran out.

This frightened his wife, so he took his son to chase after him.

He Wencai ran fast in front, ran to the Black Duck River in one go, walked a few steps along the middle of the frozen water, and then got up and pounced, broke through the ice that was not too solid, and jumped in.

He Wencai's wife and son were shocked, crying and screaming for help, but cracks continued to appear on the surface of the river, and no one dared to take another step forward, so they could only watch him drown.

The next day, the river was completely frozen, and He Wencai's body was not recovered.

By this time, the Black Duck River had cast a great shadow in the hearts of the people of Shanhe Village, and people never set foot there again, and the adults of every family strictly warned the children not to go even if the river froze.

But even so, something big happened, and this incident completely rooted the fear of Black Duck River in the hearts of everyone in Shanhe Village.

Event 17:

On November 10, 1929, Li Dong, the son of Li Zhaoxian, the landlord of Shanhe Village, married Xiao Hongliu, the daughter of the landlord of Xiaojia Village.

Just when he came back to cross the river, the ice collapsed, and more than 40 people, including the bride and groom, fell into the water, and none of them survived.

Besides, these two families also read the yellow calendar before they got married, and invited a fortune teller to watch the auspicious time.

The gentleman calculated and warned the Xiao and Li families that "there are many troubles on the water, and the auspicious time and auspicious day are useless, and they need to take the dry road, otherwise there will be casualties."

The fortune teller said, the two families were a little uncomfortable, in fact, asking the fortune teller more about this sentence, just wanted to ask for a few auspicious words, I didn't expect this gentleman to be so unenlightened, and his words were ugly. Besides, the dry land is more than 100 miles, and when I go and come back, I can still catch up with the auspicious time to worship the church in the morning, this fortune teller is a pure nonsense.

So it was decided that the wedding date and route would continue as usual.

The night before the wedding, both parents dreamed of the marriage of the two families, and there was a festive scene, and the bride and groom and a group of people who received and sent off the relatives were wearing red and purple robes, which were particularly luxurious, not to mention the bright red colors, and there were various gold thread embroideries on them.

When they woke up, both families felt that the dream was a good omen.

Early in the morning of the 10th, as soon as the sky was bright, Li Dong led a group of people to drive eight carriages full of people to pick up relatives, one of which was a lavishly decorated sedan chair, ready for the bride to sit on, extremely magnificent.

Arrived at Xiao's house at eight o'clock in the morning, picked up the bride, took a group of people to send relatives, pulled the bride's dowry on the carriage, a team of people returned in a mighty way, when they walked to the middle of the river, the ice suddenly cracked, eight carriages with everyone fell into the water, cotton clothes absorb water in winter, a car of people did not survive, the bride and groom all drowned, happy events turned into funerals.

So far, all the events about this Black Duck River in "The Strange Story of Mountains and Rivers". Although the Black Duck River has drowned people and even water ghosts before, it has never been so frequent as in 1929, as if there is a force that inspires the evil things hidden in the Black Duck River.

A power!

My heart trembled, and I remembered the information I had collected so far about the Black Taiji Gate and Jin Taizhi, which recorded that the descendants of the Black Taiji Gate had evil powers, which could arouse resentment in the soul of the deceased, and even this resentment could provide strength to the soul.

For the living, it can arouse all kinds of negative emotions.

Negative emotions, resentment, providing strength?

I suddenly remembered the black discus in my hand, as if this thing liked to absorb this negative dark power, and the eight small words engraved on it, "Bleak Purgatory, My Feast", seemed to remind me that my guess was right.

What is the origin of this thing?

I took out the black discus and held it in front of my eyes to observe.
