History is experience, history is record, and the combination of the two becomes history. One day, when history shines into real life, it will give people a magical feeling. The midday sun is dazzling, and I looked up and stared at the sun for a long time.
I went back and talked about the matter in general. After hearing this, Douyazai slapped his thigh and said, "Fengzi, you can't even guess this. It's a corpse brought back to life!"
I said it couldn't be that simple. Resurrection of a dead body was a trick used to fool ordinary people.
Dou Yazai said, "Fengzi, it's really hard to talk about this. There used to be an old lady in my hometown who died of gas poisoning at night in winter. As a result, early in the morning of the first seven days, the old lady's daughter-in-law suddenly went crazy. The way the daughter-in-law spoke there
She walked with a hunched posture exactly like the old lady who had died just a few days ago. She said she still had money hidden under the closet. She distributed the money to her sons on the spot and asked her to take care of her own funeral affairs. Then her daughter-in-law suddenly appeared there.
Okay, this is a typical reanimation of a corpse, I saw it with my own eyes when I was a kid."
"Nonsense, I think the wife there is just pretending to be concerned about the old lady's money." I said.
"It's not Fengzi, what I said is true! What's the point of lying to you? That old lady's name is Hou Yulan. You can go to Xiushan Township to find out! Basically everyone there knows her!"
Dou Sprout talks a lot, and his words basically go in one ear and out the other. I was about to go to the boss to discuss it, when Xiao Xuan suddenly came back with a plastic bag, and she looked a little strange.
Xiao Yuan entered the room and said anxiously, "Bean sprouts! Yunfeng! I just came back from the dock market. There were many people there discussing the big fish you two sold that day."
Dou Sprout picked up the water glass and said proudly, "This discussion is normal, because those people can't make as much money from selling fish for a year as I do from selling that fish, and they are jealous of me." .??.??
I was shocked and quickly asked Xiaoxuan, "What are we discussing? Could it be that the fish has eaten up the person's stomach?"
Xiaoxuan shook her head, "It's not bad, but I heard from them that when the family was killing the fish, they found a child in the belly of the fish. Some people said that it was pregnant with a human fetus."
Dou Sprout had just taken a sip of water and spit it out!
"What the hell! There's a baby in the fish's belly!" Dou Sprout asked in surprise.
Xiaoxuan frowned and said, "I don't understand the details, but many people are talking about it. One person said that the big catfish is the gatekeeper of the river god of Qiandao Lake, and said that no matter whether it is caught, it is still killed for food.
The people will soon be punished by the river god."
"Impossible! This is all nonsense!" Dou Sprout said doubtfully.
I said, "Maybe the rumors are not groundless. Brother Yu, it's inconvenient that Dou Sprout and I are familiar faces. Why don't you accompany Xiaoxuan to the market to find out what's going on."
Brother Yu and Xiaoxuan went there for about an hour before they came back. I couldn't believe it when I heard the news they got.
There was indeed something eaten in the belly of that big fish! It wasn’t a real child! According to them, it was a stone child figurine with words engraved on it! It might have been about ten centimeters tall!
Douyazai looked regretful, and he slapped his thigh fiercely, "Oh, hey! It's over! How come the treasure is gone! I only sold it for 20,000 yuan! If it were an ancient figurine of an old boy! It would be worth at least two
One hundred thousand!"
There are indeed relatively few child figurines from the Ming dynasty, and the ratio of unearthed child figurines to adult figurines is about dozens to one. Generally, child figurines with arms and legs are sometimes found in children's tombs during the Han Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Some experts say they are toys in nature. In fact,
No, many of these stone figurines and pottery figurines are burned by parents in the image of their children when they were alive, as a way to commemorate the person and express their grief.
In addition, this type of child figurines are available in trousers and without trousers. The ones with trousers on the market are five to ten times more expensive than the ones without trousers.
It is a fact that there are cultural relics from past dynasties scattered in Qiandao Lake, but I thought to myself, even if the fish are hungry and anxious, they shouldn't swallow these things, right?
Douyazai stood up and said angrily, "No! We know where that woman lives! We should go to the door and get the things back! What I'm selling is fish, not child figurines! If she doesn't give it, let her make up the money!"
I said, "Do you think people will admit it? It's like buying a river mussel and eating a pearl out of it. That's someone's luck, and
It doesn’t matter to us.”
I'm not as petty as Dou Sprouts, and I don't want to take the things back, but I'm curious about the appearance of the child figurines and the words engraved on them. I haven't seen the actual objects yet, so everything is pure speculation.
According to the information I heard, the little rich woman who bought our fish that day was named Xia Shuishui. She was from a wealthy local family and her family had many properties. According to legend, her ancestors were from a large branch of the Xia royal family. I don’t know whether this is true or not.
When Dou Sprout insisted on coming to ask for something, he said that if I didn't go, he would go alone. What were we doing? I was afraid that he would cause some trouble, so I went with her.
Relying on the memory of my last visit, we arrived at the door of the four-story villa in the afternoon. Neither of us could even get in. Bean sprouts seemed to feel that he had suffered a huge loss, so he argued and made noise with others at the door. .??.
??
The quarrel lasted until about four o'clock. Someone must have reported the news that the man with glasses and the little rich woman drove back from somewhere else. She was wearing a brand-name outfit and looked very rich, but her delicate little face was filled with anger.
She ran over, put her hands on her hips and shouted, "You two! Why are you arguing in front of my house!"
Dou Sprouts immediately said, "Beauty, remember me! The big fish I sold you at the dock a few days ago had treasure in its belly! I sold it to you without knowing it!"
Upon hearing this, the little rich woman immediately said angrily, "How dare you come to me! My sister-in-law, I've been wanting to come to you for the past two days! What a treasure! She's just a stone-breaker! My mother said it's bad luck! Give it to me for free.
I don’t want any!”
Dou Yazai immediately wiped his tears and said, "Beauty, you don't know, my grandfather drowned in the lake trying to catch this fish. Our family is poor. My grandfather paid for that fish with his life. If you don't want it, just give it back to me."
I can refund you the more than 20,000 yuan I spent to buy fish."
I saw Dou Sprout really crying, tears streaming down his face.
After hearing this, the little rich woman's voice became softer. She said, "I threw that thing in the trash can in the backyard yesterday. If you want, you can dig it out yourself."
Dou Sprout stopped crying immediately and said loudly that it was okay.
As expected of a big family, her backyard is very large.
It is enough for driving practice, and there is also a small vegetable garden surrounded by a fence, where there are two large trash cans with lids.
Soon, Bean Sprout Man almost got into the trash can. He didn't mind it being dirty at all and kept rummaging through it.
The little rich woman looked serious and asked me in a low voice, "Hey, did his grandfather really drown because of catching that fish?"
I sighed and said yes, it was very miserable.
In fact, I felt happy because she believed the lies told by Dou Sprout with such terrible acting skills.
"Miss Shui, or Miss Shui, can I call you that?"
She raised her eyebrows and said, "What the hell, Miss Shui, Miss Shui, it's so unpleasant. Just call me Shui Shui."
"Okay, Miss Shuishui, we really caused trouble for you today! I'm sorry!"
"It's okay, you are quite polite and not as rude as him."
At this moment, Dou Sprout was buried in the big trash can, rushing forward headfirst. His legs kept shaking, and he looked like he was trapped. I quickly went over and pulled him out.
"Look Mineko! This is it!"
Dou Sprout clapped the cabbage leaves hanging from his neck, holding the thing with an excited look on his face.
It is really just a small child figurine. The unearthed figurines must have rust, but this one is completely black from top to bottom, and no trace of rust can be seen. The facial features are lifelike, and the headband is
He has a lotus petal square hat and wears plain bell-bottom trousers on his lower body. On the right side of his body, from head to waist, there are gray and white corroded skin marks. I wonder if it was corroded after being in the belly of the fish for too long.
Since the Yuan Dynasty, there have been very few figurines buried with them in tombs. The older these figurines are, the more blurry their facial features are. If they are from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, many of the facial features cannot be seen clearly, and there are only rough outlines of the face.
The facial features of this child figurine are not only clearly visible, but also lifelike. I judge that it should be from the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and the price is not cheap.
I turned it over and saw two small characters carved crookedly above the buttocks of the child figurine.
