Chapter 276 A Woman's Face
·
Zi Meng You Long
Even Boss Tang didn't know about this situation. He thought that his brother wanted to live a quiet life, deliberately hid in such a small mountain village, and lived an idyllic life in peace with the world. It turned out that he came here to take care of him. of a girl's parents.
For a businessman like Boss Tang, such a thing is unthinkable.
Although he also loves his wife very much and is willing to lose everything for her, but his brother Tang Cheng only likes that girl, and that girl has not agreed to be with him yet. In a sense, there is nothing between them. In other words, Tang Cheng has no obligation to take care of her parents at all.
But even so, Tang Cheng came to this small mountain village and took care of the old couple for several years.
"Brother, if you feel sorry, we can give them some more money, or send the elderly couple to a nursing home. I will pay for it. There is no need to let the university teachers do nothing and come here to live a hard life, right? "Boss Tang looked at Tang Cheng.
"It's different. Everyone has their own ambitions, so don't worry about my affairs." Tang Cheng said lightly.
Boss Tang was also helpless and could only let out a long sigh.
Now that things are settled, it's easy to handle.
Boss Tang drove the car and took Principal Jin to a nearby town, where he opened a hotel and stayed.
But the sloppy Taoist priest and I didn't go with us. We still have one very important thing to do when we stay, which is to deal with the dirty things in the river.
Hearing that we were going to stay, Tang Cheng specially packed out a room full of sundries for us, and let us make do with it for the night.
In the evening, when Tang Cheng was busy cooking dinner for us and the elderly couple, suddenly, several people came to the house.
Not long ago, the parents of the child we rescued brought the child to thank us.
The people in the village are relatively simple. When they came, they brought a basket of eggs, and let us accept whatever they said. And as soon as they met, the young couple asked the children to kneel down and kowtow to me and Tang Cheng. Thank you The grace of saving lives.
The child's father even knelt down, grabbed my hand, and cried tearfully, saying that if we hadn't saved the child, their family would be over.
And he also took out the only 1 yuan and handed it to me, asking me to accept it, and it’s okay if I don’t accept it.
In desperation, I had no choice but to charge 1000 yuan, which means, otherwise they would definitely not let it go.
But they came just in time, and the sloppy Taoist priest and I also had something to ask the rescued child.
The child was called Er Niu, and the two drowned children were from the same village as him, one was named Da Zhuang and the other Zhu Zhu.
Children in their teens are already very sensible, and they can generally recover the scene of being killed.
Er Niu told us that in the afternoon, the three children finished their homework and went to the river to play together. The weather was too hot, so they took off their shoes and played in a shallow water beach with relatively slow water flow. While playing, suddenly the child named Da Zhuang saw a red fish swimming around in the water, and it was very big, so he was attracted by the big fish and walked a few steps towards the depth of the water.
At this moment, Da Zhuang suddenly submerged his entire body into the water, leaving only his hands flailing outside.
It felt as if someone had pulled Da Zhuang in the water and dragged him down.
Seeing this situation, Er Niu and Zhu Zi went over at the same time, grabbed Da Zhuang's hand respectively, trying to pull him up.
Unexpectedly, the thing holding Da Zhuang in the water was very strong, no matter how hard they tried, Da Zhuang didn't pull it up, but instead pulled them violently, dragging the two of them into the water.
After Er Niu was dragged into the water, he kept struggling, and then felt a hand grabbing his ankle, pulling it down continuously.
When he was vague, Er Niu also said that he saw a woman's pale face under the water and smiled at him.
After a while, Er Niu didn't know anything, until Tang Cheng came over, jumped into the river, and rescued him.
Everyone knows what happened next.
Hearing Er Niu's words, his parents looked very frightened. Er Niu's mother slapped him on the buttocks, and said angrily: "You brat, don't make up nonsense, how can it be possible in the river? With a woman's face, you were scared stupid at the time, right?"
But Er Niu said very stubbornly: "Mom, I saw it, I really saw a woman's face."
"Could it be that there are water ghosts? This river has never been very peaceful. As long as I can remember, people have drowned in that river almost every year. People from ten miles and eight villages, almost every village, are there. People died in the river." Ruan Na's old mother said in horror.
"This is indeed the case, and most of the dead are children. Children are more difficult to discipline. Although the family members told them not to go to the river to play, there are no children who are very obedient. They ran to the river without looking at them. Going to play." Ruan Na's father also said.
This matter has cast a shadow over the hearts of the sloppy Taoist priest and me.
If you don't encounter it, that's all. Now that you have encountered it, there is no reason to ignore it.
Especially the sloppy Taoist priest, who likes to join in the fun, and he can't let him take care of it.
In his words, as a Maoshan Taoist priest, he should eliminate demons, protect the way, and eliminate harm for the people.
After chatting for a while, we sent Erniu's family away and started dinner.
After eating and drinking enough, it was already dark. At this time, we greeted Tang Cheng and said that we would go for a stroll by the river.
Tang Cheng knew the identities of the sloppy Taoist priest and me, and said quickly, "You two, are you going to catch water ghosts in the river?"
I had nothing to hide, so I said: "Yes, during the day, I checked with Daoist Luo, and there was indeed something dirty in the river. Let's go and have a look and see if we can find any clues. Today Staying at night is precisely for this reason."
"It's okay to be idle, I'll go with you to have a look, maybe I can help you." Tang Chengdao.
The sloppy Taoist priest and I looked at each other, I nodded, and said, "Alright, you are with Uncle Hu Zi, just don't go into the water."
"No problem, I also really want to see the methods of Master Wu and Daoist Luo." Tang Cheng said excitedly.
Then, the four of us took advantage of the darkness and went directly to the small river at the west end of the village.
Tonight's night is good, bright, sparkling on the river. At night, I feel that the water flow is not as fast as in the day. We came to the place where the accident happened during the day. We stood by the river and looked towards the water. There was a sense of gloom.
For a businessman like Boss Tang, such a thing is unthinkable.
Although he also loves his wife very much and is willing to lose everything for her, but his brother Tang Cheng only likes that girl, and that girl has not agreed to be with him yet.
