"Holy shit!"
Dou Sprout picked up a small stone and threw it into the river. He heard the sound and said immediately: "The water is very deep there! You don't want to go into the water, do you?"
Xiaoxuan's eyes were still staring at the water. She said, "I want to dive down and take a look. You guys can help me take a look."
Douyazai said hurriedly: "No, no, no, no! You're just watery! Why don't I go down and help you take a look."
After saying that, Dou Sprout started to take off his clothes.
I say be careful, you'd better warm up first so you don't get fucking cramps in the water.
Dou Sprout laughed loudly: "Heat up! To me, little white dragon! This river is like a small bathtub in my eyes! Just perfect for taking a bath!"
After saying that, she jumped into the river, swung her hands and swam quickly towards the center of the river.
Soon, the Bean Sprout Man was no longer visible on the river, but I knew his water characteristics well, so I wasn’t too worried.
In less than three minutes, Dou Sprout broke out of the water and shouted, "What the fuck! There are dead people's bones at the bottom of the river!"
After saying that, he took a deep breath, pinched his nose, and plunged in again!
Xiaoxuan clenched her fists nervously.
After another two minutes, Dou Sprout's water broke out again, and he shouted: "I'm not looking for it! There's not one at all!"
Xiaoxuan's face was full of disappointment and she didn't say anything.
After Dou Sprout came ashore, he shook the water and said, "The water is seven to eight meters deep! There is a lot of river mud at the bottom, and there are fucking human bones and cow bones!"
I said let's go, go back and warm yourself by the fire, don't catch a cold.
I thought Xiaoxuan was acting on a whim, but unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, she woke me up suddenly and asked me where Xiaoxuan had gone.
My heart skipped a beat, knowing that she must have gone to the river again!
A few of us went out to look for it right away.
"Xiaoxuan! Xiaoxuan! Sister Xuan!" Everyone shouted Xiaoxuan's name.
It was pitch black all around, the water on the river was calm, and not even a single person could be seen.
A few of us panicked and were ready to take off our clothes and get into the water.
At this moment, someone shouted: "Look over there!"
Several flashlights were shined into the deep water at the same time.
I saw a hand suddenly stretched out from the water, and this hand was holding a knife tightly!
Then Xiaoxuan broke the water and came out. He looked up at the sky and took in big breaths!
Dou Sprout's eyes widened: "Holy crap! She really found it!"
Half a minute later, I pulled her out of the water. Xiaoxuan was soaked, but her eyes were full of excitement.
The guide Lao Yang said speechlessly: "Girl, I'm really impressed by you! I didn't expect you to find something that so many people couldn't find!"
I looked at this knife. The blade is extremely sharp! The handle of the knife is inlaid with red agate, and there are two straight blood grooves on the blade from top to bottom. Dark red blood stains can be vaguely seen around the blood grooves.
I conclude that the age of this knife will not be too long, probably from the late Qing Dynasty to the early Republic of China. As for whether it is the burial knife mentioned by Lao Yang, there is no way to verify it, because there is no text mark on the knife.
Afterwards, I asked Xiaoxuan, how did you know where the knife was in the water?
Xiaoxuan's answer was ambiguous. She said that a voice in her head told her. This was really scary...
The next day, we walked all day and finally saw a village in the evening.
All the houses in the village are pure wooden stilted buildings. Looking at these stilted buildings from a distance, I have an indescribable feeling in my heart. I don’t know why, but it just feels like this place is lifeless.
Lao Yang reminded: "Everyone, this is Dahoushan Aizhai. It is different from the Miao villages in Fenghuang. Don't talk nonsense after entering the village. The Miao people don't like outsiders."
On the road, we met a yellow-faced man leading a cow home. He looked at us warily.
Lao Yang stepped forward and whispered a few words to him, and then he slowly dropped his hostility towards us.
Before I came here, I imagined the Miao village to be full of laughter and laughter, with men and women singing folk songs to each other, especially the women. They were all slim, with fair and fair skin, and were covered with silver jewelry.
Comparing it now with the picture in my mind, it was completely different. After entering the village, I saw several more women, all of whom were short and had rough skin.
"Xiaomi! Xiaomi! We are coming for you!" Dou Sprout shouted.
I slapped Dou Sprout on the head and told him not to yell. Then I took out my phone and took a look. My Nokia didn't have a single signal here.
Suddenly, two strong men stopped us with woodchopping knives in their hands. They pointed their knives at us and shouted: "The land of Mengga is fierce!" (I can't remember clearly, that's probably what they said.)
Lao Yang didn't understand what he said, "Meng Ou Menda", and then the two knife-wielding men pointed at a stilted building at the same time. Lao Yang immediately gave him a box of welcome cigarettes.
"That's the building. They said Guicao Po lives there. Wasn't your friend taken away by Guicao Po in the first place?"
I said yes, go and ask immediately.
Going up the stairs to the place, I met again the old ghost lady who picked up Xiaomi two years ago.
She has changed a lot. She is wearing navy blue cloth clothes. She is blind in her left eye, and the vision in her right eye seems not to be very good either.
"Grandma! It's me! Do you still remember me, right?"
The old ghost grass lady looked at me for a full minute. She suddenly grabbed my hand and grinned excitedly.
"Grandma, where is Xiaomi! Where is my friend! I came to see her!"
"Brother Yang, I can't understand what she said! Please translate for the translator!"
After listening to a few words, Lao Yang turned around and asked in surprise: "Little brother, you...are you their son-in-law?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. Doctor Fan looked at me strangely.
"What son-in-law! No!"
I hurriedly explained: "She gave me a purse back then! But I didn't agree!"
Lao Yang said anxiously: "Since you didn't agree, then why are you collecting other people's wallets? You can't randomly collect the things in your wallet here!"
"I!"
I don't know how to explain this either.
The old ghost grass woman grabbed my hand and refused to let go. When Dou Sprout saw this, he said with joy: "Fengzi, you are so popular with women. I am so much more handsome than you, why don't any of you want to be with me?" The one who came to visit my son-in-law?"
He added: "If you want a brother, let me see. Don't be too busy to refuse first. Let's see how her granddaughter looks like. If she turns out to be a beautiful woman, won't you have to take advantage?"
Brother Yu also smiled and said: "That's right Yunfeng, let's meet him when he comes. The ugly son-in-law will eventually meet his parents-in-law."
"Fuck! Can you guys stop laughing at me?"
"Aya! Aya!"
Suddenly, a girl's scream came from the stilted building. Aya must have meant grandma.
Then a young girl ran downstairs screaming.
I was stunned when I saw this girl's figure and appearance.
This...this...this is too...
Her height is estimated to be at most 1.55 meters! Very fat, weighing no less than 170 pounds, with dark and rough skin, thick lips, and a beard growing around his mouth! In addition, there is a big black mole next to her nose, and there is a hair on the mole. Except for the buck teeth, this fat girl is exactly the same as Tingting!
Old Guicaopo looked happy, pointed at me, and said a few words to the girl.
The girl glanced at me, her face immediately turned red, and she lowered her head shyly, not daring to raise her eyes to look at me.
I felt completely paralyzed on the spot and felt like I was going to have a heart attack.
