Twenty Years of Corpse Hunting in The Yellow River

Chapter 91: Three do not fish

Views:

I watched the two people fall into the river. The river under the cliff was wide and the water flow was relatively slow. After they fell into the water, it didn't take long for them to show their heads.

These two people seemed to have some deep hatred, they had fallen into the water, but they were still fighting each other. I ran with them along the river bank for a while, even though I knew my abilities were far worse, I couldn't bear to watch the master in an accident. Even if you can't help much, you should at least follow it to see where the master was rushed.

I ran hard on the bank of the river, but couldn't keep up with the speed of the water. Two identical masters were fighting in the water, and the light was dim. I couldn't tell the difference. At the end, I felt anxious and jumped directly into the water and went down the river.

After all, I was still a step late and failed to catch up. I drifted a few miles downstream, the river narrowed, and the current suddenly became turbulent. In such waters, I was not sure that I could protect myself. In desperation, I could only go ashore first. . Standing on the shore and looking up again, I can no longer see the master and the fake master.

I still have a little hope that the master can get rid of the fake master, or even kill him. The fake master is a scourge to stay in the world, but I am still worried. The fake master's skill is so good, it is probably difficult to kill him.

I returned to the Hanging Corpse Cliff again, hiding near the Hanging Corpse Cliff. I hope that the master can come back and see me again after he gets out of trouble. It's just that I know this hope is extremely slim, but I have no other choice but to wait here.

One night passed quickly, and I hid near the Hanging Corpse Cliff, not even daring to blink my eyes. But neither of them showed up, and I doubted that after they really met with such a deep hatred, would they have to fight for life and death before they would give up.

I waited patiently and waited from the light of the sky until noon, and then from noon to nightfall, and waited for two full days. I had no dry food or water on my body. I was tired and hungry after waiting. Two days later, I gave up in my heart.

I feel that neither the master nor the fake master will come back again.

With a sense of loss, I waited for another night, and when it dawned, I had no choice but to leave.

I have been thinking that the master is not dead, since the fake master crashed my home and my master’s house with the keel ancestor boat last time. After the master fell into the water and was washed away, he was still safe and sound. But he refused to show up or see me. He only entrusted Yu Bo to arrange a way for me.

I didn’t understand why the master wanted to do this before, but now thinking about it, I can feel that the master still cares about me. He made me feel at ease to be an ordinary corpse scavenger and support my family with my own craftsmanship. Maybe , Just to keep me away from these disputes. Only by staying outside can you live longer.

After I left here, I immediately rushed to the small village where I lived before. There were still some things in the small village that had not been cleaned up, and my boat remained on the river beach over there.

After I hurried back, the Xi Temple near the river beach was still under construction, but the small group of civilians in Xiaoliu had been in an accident. Now the Xi Temple is built by another group of people. I didn't dare to say a word, I was afraid that there was an accident, I went back to the small village to pack up my things, and left in a hurry.

I drove to the east bank of the river in a small boat, and then walked upstream. There were no villages nearby, and I couldn't find a place to live in. I simply

Eat and live on a small boat, go down to the river during the day, and dock the boat to the shore at night to make do with one night's rest.

Occasionally, when I look at the bright moon in the sky, I feel hesitant and at a loss because I don't know what I should do. For the rest of my life, will you have to drift on the river non-stop, be a corpse scavenger, and deal with floating corpses every day

I don't want this, but now, I can't think of another way out.

As the days passed, the rain was obviously more than usual, and the water level of the river rose. Basically all the boatmen in the river stopped their boats and went out of business. I watched that there was no business, and temporarily took the ship to rest.

This morning, I took advantage of the opportunity to rest and planned to repair the boat. The boat was really broken, and after beating for an hour to fix the place that should be repaired, I sat down and took a breath.

At this moment, I saw seven or eight people coming from the north. Those people ran desperately against the river bank, looking into the river and shouting as they ran. Because of the distance, I can't see exactly what they are doing. When I got closer, I discovered that they were probably trying to fish something out of the river, but the flow of the river was a little too fast, and the group of people couldn't keep up, and they were all anxious.

At the forefront was an old woman in her sixties. Although she was very old, her bones were still very strong. Despite the obstacles of others, she ran and screamed into the river.

The place where I park the boat is a river bend. Only in this place is it convenient to go down the river and collect the boat on weekdays. When we arrived near the river bend, the water flow slowed down, and all the messy debris on the river surface was washed to the river bend side. Therefore, the corpse hunter sometimes always chooses the river to wait for the corpse.

When the distance between each other got closer, I saw a person floating in the river. It was a woman who was probably dead, like a leaf, spinning involuntarily in the current, drifting downstream. When it reached the river bend, the water flow changed, and the women in the river were washed to the river bend.

The water flowed very fast, and the people on the shore also ran fast. Not long after, seven or eight people rushed to the bank of the river bend.

"Go down! Go down to find people!" The sixty-year-old old woman yelled, pointing to the woman in the water, and said to the person behind her: "Go and find someone for me!"

The old woman was obviously the elder of the group. As soon as she spoke, the rest of them ran into the shallow water. People who live on the river beach can swim more or less. Before, they couldn't get into the water because the flow of the river was too fast. When the woman in the river floats to the river bend, the current will slow down. It is indeed the best time to fish for people.

Two young men ran into shallow water knee-deep first, ready to go into the water. I didn't want to be nosy, so I squatted beside my boat and watched silently. But when the two men were about to go into the water, the woman floating in the river suddenly turned around, floating on the water with her head up and down.

Not only that, the woman in the river is like a spinning top, spinning constantly in the water, and the body is submerged in the water for a while, and then resurfaced again. This scene is a bit weird and a bit weird. Two people are ready to go into the water. The young man was stunned, but the old woman behind him couldn't stand it anymore, crying and shouting: "Go down and find someone! What are you waiting for!"

The two young men did not dare not listen to the old woman, and immediately walked forward. Seeing this, I couldn’t help it because I didn’t want to look at it.

The two young men died in vain.

"Don't go!" I stood up and shouted to them: "Now go fishing for people, you will die!"

I yelled out, and everyone's eyes gathered on me.

It makes sense for me to stop two young people. In our corpse hunter's rules, there is a so-called three-fishing and three-not-fishing, and there is one out of the three-not-fishing. Floating corpses that go straight in the river like this will not be caught.

Some people who don't know how to do it make up their minds, saying that the floating corpse standing upright in the river like this is possessed by a kappa, with evil and resentment, whoever enters the water will be entangled in it, and they must not be touched. But only the corpse hunter knows that this kind of statement is completely nonsense.

The reason why the floating corpse stood upright in the water and kept spinning around was mostly because there was a not too big dark vortex under the floating corpse. If you have a big ship, you are not afraid, as long as you can get close to the floating corpse, there is a way to get the floating corpse up, and the small dark vortex can't move the big ship.

However, it would be very dangerous if the kind of boat that usually fished for corpses took the risk to salvage such floating corpses. Not to mention that people swim over to hunt for corpses. Once they get close, it is difficult to get out.

I have never met these people, but I don't want to watch them die. When several people looked at me by appointment, I hurriedly explained to them that there was probably a dark vortex under the floating corpse.

"Grandma, what they said makes sense." A twenty-five-year-old young man persuaded by the side: "Xiuxiu is already... Now if it is to fish her and take the lives of other people, you can just..."

"Shut up to me!" The old woman was full of tears. When she heard the young man's words, she immediately yelled, and after a few words, the old woman cried again: "Xiuxiu was born with a hard life... You don't care about her... Worth Xiuxiu died. Dad..."

When a group of people were scolded, they didn't dare to make any noise. The old lady might be afraid that the female corpses in the river would continue to be washed away and urged those people to go down and salvage them. I was really forced to do nothing, and someone saw the small broken ship I was parked on the shore and hurried over to discuss it with me.

"Brother, is it possible to use your boat?" The young man took out a piece of the ocean and couldn't help but put it into my hand: "When it's used up, the boat will still be returned to you."

"Use it." I hesitated, not that he was reluctant to ask them to use the boat. After I went out of business, I took the guise of the wooden strips and white cloth on the boat to collect corpses. This group of people could not see that I was a corpse collector. I'm just afraid that they will be dangerous and troublesome when they navigate the boat.

Several people immediately pushed the boat into the water. The boat was too small and too crowded to sit down. Two of them went up and rowed awkwardly toward the river bend.

As I thought, as soon as such a small boat approached the undulating female corpse in the river bend, it was obviously out of control. The two young people on the boat didn't know how to hold the boat. When the boat got out of control, the two people slanted on the boat, not to mention the corpse, and even they could not stand steady, and they would fall into the water at any time.

I started to hesitate again in my heart. I wanted to avoid unnecessary troubles, but when I hid, things came to the door.

"Brother, what's the matter with that boat?"

"I said, there may be a dark vortex in the water, but you refuse to listen." I shook my head, picked up a rope, and after shaking it off, I tied one end to my waist and threw the other end to the shore. People: "You pull the rope, I'll get the boat back."
