Chapter 970 Corpses are like forests and water is like dragons, the Holy Son crosses the Yin River in a boat

People's hearts are noisy!

All living beings...

Lao Guangming stood on the Jintang Bridge and looked at the densely packed corpses floating in the river, like boats going upstream. There were also people from the Wuhe Corpse Retrieval Team standing on the bridge, but in the face of this scene, no one dared to go into the water to retrieve the corpses.

Haihe River seems to have become a road to the underworld, Santu River!

Standing on the Jintang Bridge, Lao Guangming felt like he was standing on the Naihe Bridge.

But he knew clearly that these corpses were not ghosts, but more terrifying than ghosts. They were all part of a 'person'...

The people of Zhigu on the river bank were talking a lot, and the restlessness of people's hearts was exaggerating the panic.

Some people were already throwing paper money and burning incense on the shore to appease the souls of the dead, but Lao Guangming knew that these were not souls of the dead, but a living, newly born 'life'.

Although they are corpses, they are also 'alive'.

Taoist Cui, who was swindling on the street, was invited over. He took a look at the hundreds of floating corpses in the river, turned around and left: "Uncle, I will drive away the ordinary zombie water ghosts for you. Just take care of the food."

, but does this scene seem like something I can afford?"

Although he said this, Taoist Cui still invited the senior fellow from Tianhou Palace over.

Facing this horrifying scene, the senior brother didn’t say anything. He just took the red rope hanging on the Mudwat Mountain and tied it from one end of the Jintang Bridge to the other, blocking all the floating corpses behind.

On the river.

It is strange to say that the floating corpse went upstream, but no matter how fast the current went against the current, it could not cross the mouth of the Sancha River.

On the Jintang Bridge, the red ropes and other floating corpses that were constantly swimming upstream were also stopped...

But the senior teacher at Thean Hou Temple only shook his head and sighed: "The red rope that ties the doll is a red thread from death to life. It ties the doll like an umbilical cord. Originally, if it were a ghost from the underworld, the red rope would be tied to whatever it was.

No matter how capable it is, as long as it cannot violate the principles of the Queen of Heaven, it will not be able to cross this line."

"That's why the Wu Deacon of Xuanzhen Sect stopped the ghost ship the other day and asked us to borrow the red rope."

"But these floating corpses are neither alive nor dead. Although they are somewhat similar to ghosts, their essence is demons. My red rope can stop the evil ghosts, but it cannot stop the corpse demons for long. And the demons are also evil! Once

If they are allowed to enter the city, extremely terrible things will happen."

The old captain of the Wuhe body-retrieving team faced the old Taoist priest, hugged a man from the river, and said: "Thank you, old immortal, for your help. I wonder if there is a way to ward off evil spirits for our brothers and let them go into the water to retrieve the corpses."

"

The son of the old captain next to him slowly raised his head and grabbed the old captain: "Dad, people said that thing is a corpse demon!"

"You can't touch it!"

Other village elders also slowly came up to stop him.

"What we eat is the food of fishing corpses... Although we make money from the dead, I think it is also a meritorious deed to fish out floating corpses and help people return to their roots without falling into the mouths of fish and shrimps."

The old captain said sincerely: "Everyone doesn't dislike us, they just know that we eat decent food."

"Now that the monster corpses are entering the city against the current, there will be a big trouble. And since these floating corpses are on the Five Rivers, we should take care of them. One is to prevent this big trouble, and the other should be our job. Just like, the water will meet every year.

During the holidays, everyone has to give them gifts, but when they arrive at the fire scene, they shrink back... It doesn’t make sense!”

After hearing this, everyone was moved.

The corpse-recovering team immediately selected the eighteen people with the best water quality, put on water supports, lit incense to ward off evil spirits, paid homage to the God of Fire and the Dragon King of Nine Rivers, and prepared to go into the water to retrieve the corpses.

Cui Buer carefully took out a stack of tattered yellow paper and shouted: "Don't worry, I will give you a disaster list, maybe you can deceive the Lord of Hell and his old man."

The senior fellow from Thean Hou Temple also tied red strings on everyone’s wrists.

Cui Buyer asked each person's birthday and horoscope, then calculated the time of day, and took out a small bald-hair pen and a box of ink sticks with only a little left.

The old Taoist priest next to him also sighed when he saw it.

"Boy Cui, are you willing to use the Yin Mo dug out from the tomb of the Eastern Han Dynasty? Didn't you say you want to keep it for yourself to write a Yin deed?"

Cui Buyer sighed: "I don't have this life! The second master is open and bright, I can't be stingy!"

The old Taoist priest thought for a while, found a copper box, opened it and saw bright cinnabar ink: "This Longquan Eight Treasures ink mud was given to me by the emperor when he came to the Temple of Heaven to pay homage to the Queen of Heaven. Later he became immortal."

I don’t dare to come here anymore because of my evil thoughts! If you just use it... if it’s not enough, I’ll ask, there should be some at Junior Brother’s place.”

Taoist Cui smiled and called the corpse-recovering team one by one. He wrote the disaster list in black and yellow paper, and then everyone pressed their fingerprints with ink pads.

This is something that only living people can do to criticize people. The gangsters sign and sign to show their courage, and it also has the meaning of life and death. If someone regrets and causes a lawsuit, he will show his fingerprints on the list of disasters to the government.

So as to confirm that he accepted this life.

On this day and night, who is going to criticize the living people?

So every application should be done according to the gangsters' methods.

Liu Daoyuan, who was involved in fighting ghosts in Zhigu City, had his hands in his sleeves and was watching the excitement. He saw the men from the underwater corpse recovery team putting on their water rafts one by one, holding Mo Sheng's rope in their hands, and about to enter the water.

He stretched out his head and said loudly: "Don't be afraid! If you really die down there! I will go to the Bone Lady to file a lawsuit and get your soul back!"

Everyone knows that although he has a bad mouth, he has no bad intentions and is a very loyal person.

So I didn't care about him and just jumped into the river one by one like ducks planting rice seedlings.

The old captain took the lead, swam to a floating corpse, walked around behind it, and wrapped the ink rope in his hand around its head. It was the floating corpse of a man, probably a laborer at the dock. His body was strong, and although he was in the water,

It's a little swollen, but you can still see his face.

This job is dangerous, so it’s easy first and then difficult.

When fishing for floating corpses, you are not afraid of men's corpses. Men's floating corpses are lying on their stomachs and will not suddenly open their eyes to look at you. Women have a strong Yin energy, and it is okay if the children are not in trouble. If an accident occurs, they may die. The differences between these two types of people are

The corpses are all lying on their backs. Once they open their eyes and see you, they will be dead.

Whether it's a water ghost, a substitute, or a drifter pretending to be a corpse, there is a way to solve the old captain's ancestral corpse-catching business.

Once the floating corpse opens its eyes and the sinking corpse closes its mouth, it is a sign of great disaster.

But if the floating corpse opens its eyes and turns completely white, and the sinking corpse closes its mouth and holds its breath, even gods cannot save it.

The old captain had just wrapped around a corpse when he felt a hand under the water grabbing his ankle. However, he didn't panic, held his breath and sank into the water. Sure enough, he saw a pair of blue hands grabbing his right hand.

Ankles.

He tied a red thread to the hand, and soon the hand let go of his feet and sank straight into the sea river.

Just when the old captain thought the matter was settled and was about to put his head up, he found an invisible color rope tied around his ankle, with a copper coin on it.

It looked familiar to him, so he touched it, rubbed it in his hands, and wiped off the green algae. He saw four inscriptions on the round sky and square: "Keep away evil and ward off evil!"

The old captain was confused...

This money is spent money, also called winning money. It was originally imitated by people and used to ward off evil spirits and pray for blessings. It originally came from the palace and was made of gold and silver. It was engraved with auspicious words, so it is also called palace money.

As for this piece of money to ward off evil spirits, the old captain happened to know that it was a piece of fetal money that had flowed out of the palace.

It was when Jiazi was a year old that the emperor ordered Qin Tianjian to make a batch of money mother, which was used to imprint clay molds and cast gold and silver palace coins. One of them somehow ended up in the hands of a young eunuch. When he left the palace,

, and spent it as ordinary copper coins.

After many twists and turns, it fell into the hands of the old captain's father.

When he was young, he was in poor health.

His father always said that he should give the money to him. When he was a child, he also grew up with the palace money to ward off evil spirits. But whenever he went out to work, no matter where he played, his mother would find him and put the palace money back to his father.

When he was a child, he touched this pattern eight hundred times if not a thousand times.

At this moment, the old captain struggled violently under the water, holding on to the money and drilling down, trying to find the hand tied with a red rope.

His biggest regret in his life was that he had spent his whole life fishing for corpses but could not fish out his father.

But when he looked under the water, he found that the figures around him were vague, as if this was not under the Haihe River, but at the gate of the East City, where people were crowded. The corpses on the river were so densely packed that it was scary, but the ones under the river were ten times worse.

The old captain's exercise was a little intense, and his breath was unsteady, and he spit out a string of bubbles under the water.

At this moment, all the corpses that closed their eyes and were swimming upstream... opened their pale, pupil-less eyes.

The corpses around him stretched out their hands, and they were densely packed, with pale hands swaying like water plants on the bottom of the river. The old captain felt that the water was wrapping around him, heading towards the jungle formed by the arms.

He couldn't help himself and fell towards the corpse forest at the bottom of the river.

The red rope on my wrist has turned black...

At that moment, the evil-warming palace coin he was holding tightly in his hand suddenly shattered, and the water flow that was holding him suddenly became chaotic. The old captain's whole body was spinning. In the chaos, he was lifted to the surface of the river by a hand.

The men of the corpse recovery team had just tied up a few corpses when they saw the old captain rushing out of the river, gasping for air, and looking around in horror.

"Let's go!"

"Get ashore quickly... let's find another way to drain the water! We can't go into the river again!"

The old captain shouted loudly.

But at this moment, hundreds of corpses on the river of corpses suddenly turned upside down, and their faces were lying on their backs on the river. No matter male or female, young or old, the corpses tied with ropes were surrounding them like small boats.

The entire Jintang Bridge was trembling, the accumulated stones were shaking, large amounts of dust fell from the gaps, the wooden structure was groaning, and the wooden frame made a hoarse sound.

The red rope tied to it was tightened, as if a huge, invisible thing was impacting it.
To be continued...
