Seeing this, my brows suddenly wrinkled.
Chen Ling and I met this man in black robe last night. He was the man in black robe leading a group of white figures.
Only tonight he changed his boat, followed by more figures.
What is the origin of this person? Could it be Yinsi? Specialized in collecting people's souls?
"That light on the bow of the ship should be a soul-inducing lamp, right?"
I looked at the broken ship going away and said thoughtfully.
"According to ancient legend, there has always been a kind of people on the Yellow River. They specialize in collecting the souls of those who died in the Yellow River and ferry them to the ghost land of Huangquan. This should be the legendary soul transferer."
Chen Ling said thoughtfully.
"Soul-transferring people? I've only heard of corpse-grabbers, but not soul-transferring people."
I said somewhat speechlessly.
"The two professions are actually similar. Corpse collectors are responsible for collecting corpses, and soul collectors are responsible for ferrying souls. After all, countless people died in the Yellow River. After death, people are divided into two states: corpses and souls. Since there are people collecting corpses , naturally there are people who can transfer souls, but the profession of corpse fishermen is more well-known to the public, and it is easier for people to accept it."
Chen Ling spread his hands and said matter-of-factly.
"So that's it."
I nodded and believed her for now.
We watched the boat disappear at the end of the Yellow River before turning back to the village.
It was almost dawn at this time. After returning to the hotel, Chen Ling and I took a hot bath and then went to bed quickly.
It was a dark sleep, and when I woke up, it was already afternoon.
I washed up, then went over to call Wang Xiaozhe and the others and asked them to go out to eat together.
There are obviously a lot more people in the village today, and the restaurants and hotels are all full.
Judging from this situation, the news about the giant snake corpse appearing on the Yellow River has probably spread, which is why so many people came here.
This is the case in today's Internet age, where anything can spread across the country and even abroad in minutes.
But it's definitely not a good sign for something like this to attract so many people.
If something serious happens, these people who come to join in the fun after hearing the news will probably only add more innocent souls to the Yellow River.
However, this is beyond our control and we can only let nature take its course.
We finally found a restaurant with a location, and ordered a few dishes to eat.
When I came out, I suddenly met Zheng Xiaoyang on the street again.
However, this guy is completely different from what he looked like before. Not only is he disheveled, but he also seems to be mentally disturbed. He feels like he is crazy, and he actually picks up dog poop on the street and eats it.
I used the art of looking for energy to look at him, and then I discovered that there was a dark mass lying on his shoulder, which was obviously haunted by a resentful ghost.
I guess it's probably his dead girlfriend.
If this situation continues, he may not survive for a few days before he is killed by this thing.
Of course I can save him, but for someone like him, the law does not allow me to kill him, but it does not say that I must save him.
Letting him suffer the consequences and fend for himself is of course the best choice.
"This kid seems to be caught by something?"
Wang Xiaozhe noticed that I was looking at Zheng Xiaoyang, so he also looked at me.
Of course, for a person like him, he can tell what's going on at a glance.
"Don't worry about him. He brought it on himself. Cause and effect reincarnate, and retribution will be unpleasant."
I said with a sneer.
"It can be seen that if this guy wasn't so pregnant, he would definitely not be involved in this kind of thing."
Wang Xiaozhe nodded and said.
"I didn't expect that you guessed it right. His girlfriend is really obsessed with him. He deserves it."
Chen Ling also snorted coldly and said.
"Don't worry about him. Let's go to the Yellow River first. So many people suddenly came here today. I guess the body of the giant snake is still floating on the river."
I frowned and said in a deep voice.
"It should be, this kind of strange news will definitely attract a lot of people."
Wang Xiaozhe nodded and agreed.
We walked all the way out of the village and soon came to the Yellow River.
But when I came here, I found that the crowds on the edge of the Yellow River were much larger than in the village. People couldn't squeeze in. The entire Yellow River bank was densely packed with people.
The police have come to maintain order, and the cordon has also been blocked at the edge of the Yellow River, but those people are unwilling to leave, and they are all holding up their mobile phones to take photos and videos.
Wang Xiaozhe and I squeezed inside to take a look and found that the giant snake's body was still floating on the river. Even the water of the Yellow River is still blood red.
This is undoubtedly explosive news, and naturally there will be many people who come to watch and join in the fun. After all, curiosity is human nature.
A few of us took a look and then quickly exited. There were too many people and the crowd was unbearable.
This phenomenon continued until the evening, and the people who came to watch and join in the fun were gradually evacuated.
As for the body of the giant snake, they also asked them to use a crane to salvage it, and then two large trucks came to pull it away.
But the river of blood lasted for three full days before it finally receded.
The Yellow River water finally turned back to its original yellow color.
Nothing happened during this period, and I even thought for a while that it was really the river god who was causing trouble.
But those hundreds of ancient corpses, no matter what you think, they must have nothing to do with the River God?
We have been staying here for almost a week, and even those who came to join in the fun after hearing the news have left here one after another.
At this point, this little-known little village has finally returned to its former peace.
Wang Xiaozhe and I simply left here and went to the town to stay for two days.
But on the third day, Captain Wu suddenly called me and said that someone had died again at Niangniangba and wanted me to come over and take a look.
Wang Xiaozhe and I had no choice but to take the bus back to Niangniangba.
When we arrived at the Yellow River, a cordon had been set up and several police cars were parked here.
When Captain Wu saw me, he hurriedly came up to me. He didn't even bother to ask Wang Xiaozhe about their identities, but just pulled me over to look at the bodies.
When I stepped forward to take a look, I discovered that there was not just one corpse, but three corpses lying in a row on the deck.
The corpses were all covered with white cloth.
I lifted up the white cloth on one of the corpses and took a look. I found that the head and body of the corpse were completely separate.
And judging from the broken marks on the neck, it felt like someone had forcibly pulled the head off.
