When Xiao Chen and the two girls were having lunch there, they kept thinking about the situation where they met the paper man's ghost marriage this morning. What on earth was going on?
Xiao Chen couldn't figure it out himself. For this kind of thing, he could either ask the master in Xiaojiacun or Master Miao.
I always feel like this is weird.
"Sister Sang, where is the Miao Village we are going to? This is called Dongjiang Miao Village."
Dongjiang Miao Village?
According to the location mentioned by Sister Sang, Xiao Chen rode a motorcycle there. It was much further this time. Moreover, it was mainly mountain roads and seemed to be undeveloped areas.
These Miao people all live in mountainous areas. Except for some Miao villages that have been developed into tourist areas, other places obviously feel isolated from the world.
It's the same now. Xiao Chen has been riding for more than an hour, but he still hasn't arrived yet.
"Sister Sang, haven't you arrived yet?"
"It should be here."
On the road just now, the three of them met other tea-picking Miao people passing by. Sang had already asked if they could indeed get to the Dongjiang Miao Village by going all the way along this road.
"It should be in front." Xiao Chen had already seen a large number of stilted buildings in the distance.
Most of the places where these Miao people live are stilt houses, whether on the riverside or in the mountains.
And this Dongjiang Miao Village obviously has a river passing through it.
When they arrived at the foot of the Miao Village, Xiao Chen and the others had already seen a river that was about a few meters wide, but the depth was unknown. Moreover, this was a river bend, and there were many along the banks of the river.
A stilted building built on the mountain.
When we came here just now, Sang said that this is a Miao village where the Qing Miao people are the main people, so the people here worship the color cyan, and all aspects of their clothing are cyan.
Xiao Chen parked his motorcycle at the foot of the mountain.
When I was about to go to the Dongjiang Miao Village to find the clan leader, I saw many Miao villagers, men, women and children, standing by the river, wondering what they were fishing for with the bamboos.
"Sister Sang, go ask them what they are fishing for?"
It doesn’t look like they are fishing for fish, does it?
Although it seems that many Miao people like to eat their own cured fish.
When Sang went to inquire, he quickly learned that there were three children in the Miao village, two boys and one girl, playing in the water and bathing by the river, and then the family could not find them.
Now those Miao villagers are fishing for people.
Something happened to a child?
It is the hot summer season now. Although it is not very hot here, many children are on summer vacation and like to go to the river to touch snails and catch fish. It is normal for accidents to happen accidentally.
The river doesn't seem to be rushing, it's very gentle, and the water seems to be very clean, but why did it disappear after it fell?
"How long?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Xiao Chen, they said it was just now."
If it was only just now, there is still a possibility of saving him. If it is too late, he will be a dead body if he is saved.
Xiao Chen used his clairvoyance to look outside and saw that there was no one in this section. When Xiao Chen walked forward, he saw a child sinking below.
After Xiao Chen took out his mobile phone and other things and handed them to Sang and the two girls, in the surprised eyes of the Miao people, Xiao Chen had already jumped into the water.
Soon, Xiao Chen rescued the little girl who sank from the water first.
The little girl no longer knew how much water she drank, but she still had energy. Xiao Chen hurriedly hugged her to the shore. Other Miao people came over and hugged her.
Where are the other two boys?
Xiao Chen looked forward carefully and saw one sinking among the water plants below. When Xiao Chen went over to hug the little boy and came up, he found that he was still alive.
There was only the last one left. Xiao Chen walked a little further. With his clairvoyance, he could see another little boy under the water plants in front.
When Xiao Chen rescued the little boy from the water plants, the little boy opened his eyes first. Xiao Chen only saw a pair of strange eyes looking at him, and then he fainted.
If Xiao Chen didn't have clairvoyance now, he would have been able to find their location only through their birth dates.
But, it's okay now, no need to bother.
When Xiao Chen came up with the third little boy in his arms, all wet, the Miao people were surprised. This young man must be too powerful.
Other villagers were still fishing for children in front of them. Unexpectedly, these three children had been pushed so far downstream of the river bend.
When Xiao Chen came ashore, other Miao villagers were still treating the three children. It was obvious that the three children had drunk a lot of water, and now the families of the three children were crying and crying.
Xiao Chen walked over and said, "I am a doctor, let me take a look.
"
They had just heard that Xiao Chen was the great disciple of Master Miao, the head of the Jiuli Sect, and he came to Dongjiang Miao Village to help them.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen had just come over and saved these three children.
After Xiao Chen went over, first checked a little boy, and then used his method to vomit out all the water that the little boy had drunk, the other boy, whose breath was weak, had already recovered.
"Send him back to rest first. He will wake up in half an hour."
The same was true for the other two children. Xiao Chen followed suit and used the same treatment method to pull the two children back from the hands of death.
After these two children were taken back by their families.
Xiao Chen knew that it would be much easier for him to contact these Miao villagers.
After learning that their patriarch, Patriarch Shi, was on a stilted building halfway up the mountain, and that he lived in a relatively high place, the villagers were very enthusiastic and the two young women personally took Xiao Chen and the others up there.
"Two beautiful sisters, why are there no parents watching the children go to the river to play in the water this summer?"
In fact, no matter where you are, whether it is a river or a swimming pool, it is quite dangerous, so it is best to have family members watching over you.
"Mr. Xiao, those three children should have gone there secretly to play. Parents don't let their children play in the river. Especially recently, there have been troubles in our Miao village and the clan leader did not let us go to the river. In the past, we could still go to the river.
Those who wash their hair, take a shower, or do laundry at the same time cannot go there now."
"Why?" Xiao Chen asked.
"The patriarch said that there are water ghosts in the river, and now he wants to drag people under the river and drown them."
Water ghost?
There are legends about this all over the world, especially in China and the East. It refers to the fact that the soul of a person who died unexpectedly or committed suicide and cannot be reincarnated comes to harm others and act as his scapegoat, and then he can be reincarnated.
Known as water monkey.
Are there really water ghosts?
Xiao Chen is not sure yet because he has never encountered it before.
However, the theory of this water ghost spread widely, and Xiao Chen felt that it was indeed possible.
Soon, Xiao Chen learned from these two young Miao women that in the Dongjiang Miao Village, several people, including children and adults, might die on the river every year, especially in the summer.
Some were able to recover the bodies, while others could not even find the bodies.
