Chapter 1362 The tall building holding down the dragon’s back

I was very surprised: "How can you be sure that he killed you?"

"I don't know if this child picked it up in the water, but he really likes to play in the water. When he was only a few years old, he dared to swim in the lake."

The old man continued.

"Every time his father couldn't find his person, he would go to the lake and look for him."

"Don't worry, Long Lake is almost dry now. The water was very wide and deep at that time. Even adults dare not swim in the middle of the lake, let alone children."

"His father brought him back and scolded him every time."

"But he still went swimming secretly behind his father's back, and he stayed like this until he was fifteen or sixteen years old."

"That summer was so hot that he couldn't sleep at night, so he secretly went to swim in the lake."

"As a result, it suddenly rained heavily in the middle of the night, and there were waves in the lake. He couldn't come back."

"In order to save him, his father sank into the lake and never got up again. So far, his body has not been recovered."

"You said, it's not that he killed his father, what is it?"

Aaron and I looked at each other.

"I think he definitely didn't want this to happen. It should have been an accident."

"In fact, no one in the village blamed him. After all, it was his own father, and he was the saddest person. Since then, he has never gone into the water again, not even near the lake."

The old man sighed.

"Everyone feels sorry for him, and they send him food every now and then."

"But he was so stubborn that he didn't eat anything. He worked all day long and only ate the little grain he grew. It was as if he was torturing himself."

"Maybe he killed his father, so he must feel guilty."

"Then did he get better later? Didn't he all get married and have children?" I asked again.

"What's even worse is this. He killed his own wife again." The old man waved his hand.

"ah?"

"His wife was an orphan from the next village. They didn't know how they got together. Things were fine at first. But then, for some reason, they kept quarreling. After the quarrel, his wife went to sit by the river. daze."

"Later, in the middle of the night, his wife also jumped into the river, and her body was not recovered."

"Leave a baby who is still nursing. To put it bluntly, I think the baby will soon be born. He will be sick after birth."

I asked curiously: "What disease? Medical science is very advanced now, and many difficult and complicated diseases can be cured."

"I don't know. They have never taken the baby out. No one has seen their baby until he is almost five or six years old." The old man waved his hand.

"The child has never been outside? How can a person survive without seeing the sun?" I asked in surprise.

"That's why I said that the baby won't live for a few more years. He hides and doesn't dare to see people. He must be some kind of freak." The old man speculated maliciously.

"Then this aquatic creature is really pitiful." I thought about the prompts in the live broadcast room.

It's really similar to the situation in aquatic life.

"Anyway, you should stay away from him. After what happened, people in the village will not dare to approach him." The old man reminded us kindly, and then looked at us.

"It's just you two this time? Are there no other comrades?"

"how?"

"It's nothing. In the past, when you came to express condolences, didn't you always bring something with you? I told you every time not to bring it, but this time I finally listened."

The old man smiled very meaningfully.

I finally understood that he regarded us as official people.

When officials express condolences to poor households, they should give away daily necessities.

"I really won't bring anything with me this time. This is the most practical." I took two hundred cash and stuffed it into the old man's hand.

After all, he also told me a lot of clues.

"Tell me about you. It would be great if you could come and visit us lonely old people. Why are you so polite?" The old man smiled from ear to ear and quickly collected the money.

"Old man, can you tell us more about the Dragon King?" I asked again, "For example, when did the Dragon King appear and whether he had any manifestations."

Once you get the money, it will be easy to talk.

The old man said: "I really don't know when it appeared. Our ancestors have been worshiping the Dragon King for generations. In the past, when we were in a bad mood, we would still send sacrifices."

"It's very clever. As long as you send the sacrifices, you can be sure that the weather will be smooth and the crops will be bumper in the coming year. You can harvest a lot of fish and shrimps casually."

I asked curiously: "What is the sacrifice?"

The old man hesitated for a moment, smiled, and said: "That was all in the feudal society. It's gone now. You just listen to it as a story."

Then, he lowered his voice and said cryptically: "Have you ever heard of the Dragon King getting married? We call her the Dragon Queen."

"The Dragon King is getting married."

I understood instantly.

To put it bluntly, it means using human sacrifices and sinking young and beautiful girls to the bottom of the lake.

The beautiful name is, marry the Dragon King and become the Dragon Queen.

Stupid bad habits.

"These things have ceased to exist a long time ago. They are all feudal superstitions." The old man quickly tried to make up for it, "What happened in Longhu is mainly to blame on those outsiders."

"If there really is a Dragon King, haven't strange things happened when foreign businessmen built houses by the lake?" I'm not really an official, so of course I won't dwell on this issue.

"I've never heard of it. When the house was being built, many strong laborers in the village went to work on the construction site. The boss gave them enough money, and they made a lot of money at that time."

The old man shook his head.

"But it will definitely be unlucky to stir up trouble on the Dragon King's back."

"No, retribution has come. Life in the village will be unbearable. They have no choice but to go outside to make a living."

"Thank you, old man. We won't disturb you any more today." The old man didn't have any more clues, so we stood up and left.

After leaving the yard, I looked not far away at the abandoned high-rise buildings on the other side of the lake.

Judging from the shape of Shenglong Lake, the area where tall buildings are built is indeed on the back of the dragon.

Shenglong Lake is very long, and there are many locations where buildings can be built, but only the Longbei area has houses.

I don't know if it's intentional or not.

"Aaron, we have to go there for a run."

The area of ​​Shenglong Lake is not small, and the distance from Linshui Village to the other side of the lake is not close.

We drove along the road along the lake.

There are willow trees planted in some places around the lake, but they have withered, leaving only bare dry branches.

They were waving their teeth and claws by the lake like ghosts.

Soon, we arrived under those houses.

Park the car and we hurry over.

There are several communities in this area, many high-rise buildings are built, and the area is large.

It can be seen that the original developer's ambitions were not small.

However, these buildings were eventually abandoned.

I counted a total of nine buildings built along the dragon's back.

On the roof, there is a round hat shape.

It makes these nine tall buildings look like nine huge nails driven into the ground.

Although they belong to the same community, other high-rise buildings are some distance away from these nine buildings, separated by a large garden.

Of course there are no flowers inside at the moment.

There are only tired outlines of masonry.

I always feel that the shape of this garden is strange, but I can't figure out why.

Then he asked Aaron to go upstairs together.

Although the high-rise building is in rough shape, the stairs have been built.

We walked to the top floor, stood on the edge of the floor and looked down.

The whole garden came into view.

Sure enough there is a problem!
