Chapter 1935 The story of the God of the Yangtze River (2)
So, Wu Qian began to tell the second story.
Like the ghost story just now, it is also a strange story that his grandfather Wu Youqian experienced when he was a river worker by the Yangtze River when he was young...
In the autumn of a certain year, the river workers team came a Taoist priest who was said to be able to see Feng Shui. He said that in the nearby Yangtze River waters - a river beside, there was an ancient tomb, hiding a valuable treasure. I asked the river workers if they would like to pick it up with him?
If it were now, no one would dare to do such things. But in the chaotic times of the old society, no one would care about it at all, and it would be useless not to go!
So most of the river workers happily followed this Yunyou Taoist priest to drive a boat together - Wu Youqian was of course among them.
After about an hour of sailing, the river team arrived at a river beside.
The river water circles a large bend here, and then is sandwiched by two huge peaks, forming an S-shaped river beside.
After the boat stopped, the Taoist priest Yunyou held a compass in his hand, probed everywhere, and finally determined the location. He asked the river workers to use various salvage tools to start fishing things in the water...
At the beginning, only some river sand was created from the river water. But gradually, some strange things began to appear in the river sand!
There are half-broken white jade bracelets, fine gold and silver blocks, some broken bottles and jars, and some broken and strange-shaped bronzes... In short, all kinds of treasures were indeed salvaged from the river.
Everyone's eyes were straightened! His breathing became heavier.
Originally, most of the river workers were poor families and at the bottom of society. At first glance, can you be excited to see so many previous objects?
The Taoist priest Yunyou was also a little excited and told everyone loudly that he only had a colorful bead. It was about the size of a human head and would shine on its own. The rest belonged to the river craftsmen!
Although the colorful beads with a big head are very valuable when they hear this guy's description, the river workers are still simple. After all, they are led by others, so it is worth giving them to him.
The salvage lasted for about an hour and indeed got the colorful beads needed by the Taoist Yunyou. Of course, there was also a whole ship of gold, silver and jewelry!
It is enough to make the entire River Works Team prosperous and prosperous for the rest of their lives.
The huge gains made everyone very excited.
Only one year old river craftsman with a very big hair and gray hair seemed to be a little worried. He thought for a while and said to everyone: "Brothers, this Taoist priest said it was an underwater treasure hunting for treasures, so we followed him. But you see, can ordinary ancient tombs have so many treasures? And it doesn't look like a dynasty. So I think this is probably not an ancient tomb underwater, but the filial piety of the God of the River."
The so-called river god is of course the guardian god of various basins in the Yangtze River that is circulated among the people!
After all, the Yangtze River is the largest river in China, with a vast basin, large and deep, so the people along the coast will always imagine all kinds of gods, monsters, ghosts and other people living there.
However, under the temptation of huge wealth, no one can listen to the words of this old river engineer.
Even Wu Youqian laughed at him: "Old Zhao, you are too cautious. Legend has it that our river god is bigger than a mountain and lives in a huge palace at the bottom of the river. We see such a small ship of things, but the river god is just a big deal. He can't control it, haha."
As for the Taoist priest who guided them over, his eyes were shining with the colorful beads the size of a human head, full of obsession. He probably had no reason anymore!
There was no way, and Old Zhao could only sigh - of course he was also very moved by these gold, silver and treasures. Once he gritted his teeth, he stopped paying attention.
Seeing that the sun hanging in the horizon was about to set, the River Works Team immediately drove a boat back. As a result, on the way back, strange things were one after another...
First, the river workers who had touched the gold, silver and treasures began to vomit constantly, vomiting and diarrhea. Even the yellow bile was vomiting out, but they couldn't stop it!
Later, I even saw some tiny maggot-like things squirming in the vomit that I was spitting out, and everyone was frightened. The leader of Yunyou Taoist priest looked solemn, took out a thin silver needle, took out a piece of yellow talisman paper, lit it, and burned the silver needle with flames.
Then, he stabbed each of them three times three times with a hot silver needle below their right ear. The people spit out a few mouthfuls of black blood before finally recovering.
Seeing this scene, Wu Youqian was a little worried.
He came to the old man with gray hair and asked, "Old Zhao, you said nothing really happened, right? These things are really the treasures of the Lord of the River God?"
Old Zhao was also hesitant, nodded, shook his head again. Finally, he sighed: "Oh, I don't know. But I think we were deceived by this Taoist priest? Seeing that he was like that, he just wanted to use our hands to get the colorful beads!"
Wu Youqian looked back at the Taoist technique holding the colorful beads and smirked foolishly, frowned slightly, and agreed with the old Hegong's view.
However... although they have used the River Work Team a little bit, they have indeed harvested a lot of gold, silver and treasures! As long as they can go back smoothly, the entire River Work Team will have no worries about food and clothing and be prosperous and prosperous for the rest of their lives.
No one can resist this temptation!
Now it is no longer realistic to let everyone throw away gold, silver and treasures.
However, I don’t know what happened that day, it was very dark! It was only six o’clock, and it was as dark as God knocked over the ink bottle.
The river workers can only turn on the search light at the bow and then drive the boat slowly. Be careful not to hit any dirty things at night. After all, there are many taboos when driving on the Yangtze River at night.
Old Zhao said to Wu Youqian with a worried expression: "It is a taboo to not return on a boat at night! I am very worried."
At this time, the other river workers became scared as the sky went completely dark.
Because according to the ancient legend of the people living by the river, at night, the monsters in the deep water began to move! The python in the river that is more than ten meters long, the river lice king who can suck human blood like a buffalo, can eat human deep river vines like animals... All kinds of weird things in the Yangtze River will appear in the surging river water at night!
Legend has it that there is also a kind of water wild dog that will appear in groups at night in the deep river!
