I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster

The fisherman's name is Zhao Da, and he is still a bachelor in his forties. Several generations of his family have been fishing for a living and relying on the river for food.

On the day when the Jinyan River flooded, he happened to go to the county seat to collect bills from restaurants and fish shops that often supply fish.

When he was about to leave, Zhao Da was pulled over by the owner of the fish store and asked about the story of the stone cow in the river.

During that time, the story of the stone cow being dug out of the Jinyan River was widely circulated throughout the county. If anyone knew the details and went to Goulan Washe to listen to the music, there would be someone to help account for it.

In order to listen to Zhao Dahaosheng's speech, the owner of the fish store also invited him to have a drink.

After drinking, Zhao Da also chatted. He combined what he had seen and heard with some legends and stories he heard, and talked about it with embellishment and jealousy. The value of the drink.

Chatting vigorously, the result wasted time.

When the wine was exhausted, the cowhide was blown, and it was dark.

Not to mention that the county town closed the city gate, even if it hadn't closed, Zhao Da didn't dare to walk home at night alone, so he made do with sleeping in the fish shop all night.

It wasn't until the next day, when Zhao Da left the county, that he realized that the Jinyan River had flooded. His fishing boat was washed away somewhere, and his home was also flooded.

The only luck is that others are fine.

And several of his friends disappeared in the flood.

After Shi Niu was released back to the Jinyan River by the county magistrate, and the flood subsided, Zhao Da bought incense wax paper money and paid homage to several of his friends by the river.

What Zhao Da didn't expect was that on the seventh night of the flood, he dreamed of several missing friends.

I saw them with disheveled hair, although they still looked like they were alive, but they were soaked and dripping water, which frightened Zhao Da.

A few friends told him not to be afraid, and expressed their intentions, but they came to ask him for help.

Zhao Daxin said that these friends are already dead, don't you come to him to help find a replacement for the dead ghost? When I asked, it was true.

How dare Zhao Da do such a thing? Haste to refuse. But several of his friends pleaded hard, telling him to help, otherwise the soul would be trapped in the river, suffering day and night, unable to escape.

In the end, a few friends turned their faces, showing their swollen and rotten appearance after death, and threatened Zhao Da with bared teeth, saying that if he didn't help, they would stay away from Jinyan River in the future, otherwise they would definitely kill Zhao Da. dragged to the bottom of the river.

To die is to die together, so as to show their sincere friendship.

After the threat, he lured them, saying that if Zhao Da was willing to help them, he would let Zhao Da make a small fortune. He also said that the scapegoat they were looking for was not a good person, but a few bandits who robbed the way, so Zhao Da was not doing harm to people, but eliminating harm for the people.

Under the coercion and temptation of several ghost friends, Zhao Da compromised.

But after hearing that these people were bandits, Zhao Da was afraid again, how could he beat bandits.

The ghost friends laughed when they heard his worries, and said that he didn't need to do anything, as long as he punted to the broken bridge tomorrow and crossed the bandits across the river.

When Zhao Da heard that there was no need to do anything, he immediately felt relieved, but he raised a new problem: there was no boat.

His boat was washed away in a flood.

A few ghost friends told him not to worry, and he could see the boat somewhere by the river the next morning. There are still a few catfish on board, let him cook for the bandits to eat. He also specifically told him not to eat it by himself, because it was the 'life money' they gave to the dead ghost.

After saying these words, the ghost friend disappeared, and Zhao Da woke up with a start.

Zhao Da thought it was just a dream, but when he got up, he found that he was surrounded by mud.

If you take a closer look, you can see that the mud at the bottom of the river is still very fresh. Not only is the cold water flowing, but there are even small fish and shrimps jumping in it.

Zhao Da suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and only then did he realize that what happened just now was not a simple dream.

Early the next morning, he went to the place by the river mentioned by some ghost friends, and he saw a boat as expected.

There were still some aquatic plants and mud on the deck of the boat, which looked like they had just been fished out from the bottom of the river. A few catfish were placed on the deck, and they were still alive. When they saw Zhao Da coming, they kept jumping.

Zhao Dazhuang bravely boarded the boat. According to the instructions of some ghost friends in his dream, he cleaned up the catfish, cooked them in a pot, and then supported the boat to the side of the collapsed bridge.

Sure enough, he didn't wait long before he saw five people appear by the river.

Finding that the bridge was gone, the five men questioned him first, and then took out their knives and forced him to cross the river in a boat, or they would cut him off.

Zhao Da was still a little hesitant at first, but when he saw the attitude of the five people, he no longer hesitated.

The five people boarded the boat, smelled the aroma, immediately grabbed the fish from the pot and ate it, without Zhao Da going to fool them.

When the boat reached the middle of the river, one of the five people suddenly found something in the water and hurriedly called his companions to come and see.

Just as the five people gathered by the boat and looked into the river, five pairs of blue and black arms suddenly protruded from the river and dragged them into the water.

The five were splashing about in the river, while Zhao Da was terrified, and hurriedly pushed the boat to run away, but found that the boat seemed to be caught by something under the water, and could not move at all.

Zhao Da thought he was going to die too, his legs went limp from fright, and he sat on the boat and cursed continuously.

As a result, the five people were completely dragged into the bottom of the river, and after there was no movement, several bundles were thrown onto the boat from the river.

Zhao Da saw that it was the five people who carried it on their backs earlier.

At this time, the boat was able to move, so he hurriedly paddled the boat to the shore, and only after landing did he open the bag to check. There were some clothes and broken silver in it.

Seeing no one around, Zhao Da ran off the boat with these bundles.

He thought the matter would be over like this, but in the evening, some ghost friends of his came to bid him farewell, but brought a new water ghost and asked him for help.

Zhao Da didn't dare to refuse, and after doing it once, he was no longer so afraid, not to mention that he could make a fortune, which made him even look forward to it.

So Zhao Da reached a deal with the water ghosts in the Jinyan River. He took people to the water ghosts, and the water ghosts had to replace the dead ghosts, and he got money.

Zhao Da soon discovered that he was not the only one making deals with water ghosts.

There are also some surviving fishermen and boatmen who are doing the same thing.

At the beginning, they had to avoid each other and felt awkward when they met.

But within a few days, everyone got used to it, and even parked the boat by the river together, waiting in line for the 'business' to come to their door.

The scapegoats they brought up for the water ghosts have also changed from bandits, rogues, etc. at the beginning, to everyone, including the old, the weak, women and children.

After talking about this experience, the boat also reached the shore.

Zhao Da knelt down on the deck of the boat, begging for mercy with tears in his eyes: "Please let me go, I was really forced..."

Zhu Xiucai snorted, "Don't pretend to be pitiful. You may have been forced to do so at first, but after seeing the money, your heart changed. And when your ghost friend came to your door, you could go to the night watchman." Report the case to someone and ask the night watchmen to handle the matter. But you didn't do that, which means that you have been tempted by the temptation from the very beginning. So, don't say you were forced."

Zhao Dalian hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, but unfortunately no one sympathized with him at all.

Liao Lishi even spit at him and scolded: "If you pull him to take the place of the dead ghost, they are all bandits and rogues. I still respect you as a man, and you are doing harm to the people. But you pull Those who act as scapegoats are all innocent passers-by, even children. Are you pitiful? Aren’t you pitiful for these people who were pulled by you to become scapegoats? Why didn’t you ever think about letting them live? "

After the boat docked, Qin Shaoyou arranged for two warriors to rush to Longtai County, where this place belongs, to report the incident to the night watchman and the county government.

At this moment he turned around, ignored Zhao Da's begging for mercy, and just said: "There is one thing I don't quite understand, if you conspire with ghosts, aren't you afraid that in the end, you will also be dragged into the water by the water ghost and become a scapegoat? "

Zhao Da tremblingly said: "The water ghosts promised not to harm us, what's more, if they drag us into the water, there will be no one to help them deliver the dead ghosts."

"Then you are not afraid, if you are dragged to be a substitute for the dead ghost, you will take revenge on you?"

"Don't be afraid, the water ghosts said that as long as they are there, the scapegoats will not dare to touch us. Even if they all find the scapegoats, they will notify us in time. And we have also discussed that the scapegoats also want to find the scapegoats, so it is better to leave Don't leave us..."

Guys, are you stuck here with a BUG?

Qin Shaoyou shook his head and sneered.

"Aren't you afraid that you will be discovered by the police and the night watchman?"

Zhao Da groaned.

Of course they were afraid, but in the end they were all blinded by lard and blinded by temporary interests.

And as long as there is no accident, they will be lucky and feel that they will be fine all the time.

Qin Shaoyou snorted, and asked again: "There is another question, as you said just now, the catfish boiled on the boat is the 'life money' offered by the water ghost, and those who eat the catfish will be dragged away by the water ghost." Go into the water... But we didn't eat these catfish, why did the water ghosts still pop up?"

You can't just see that I'm handsome, live and have a good body, so you want to drag me into the water and become a king of the river, right?
