Chapter 77

When the fat man saw this, he took off his coat and threw it to me, then plunged into the water.

This alarmed the people who were watching He Bo's wedding. They surrounded us angrily and scolded us for meddling in our own business.

At this time, Erpeng had already swam to the shore with the girl in the fiery red wedding dress. Seeing this, people no longer focused on scolding us, but returned to the shore, shouting and begging the goddess to start again.

Sacrifice.

We saw Er Pang and the girl being surrounded by people, and we quickly rushed over to block in front of them.

There are so many people on the other side that we dare not confront them rashly. Fortunately, the group of people on the other side also know that this is a society governed by law and do not dare to attack us easily.

While we were in a stalemate, I called the local police station.

Not long after, a whistle was heard in the distance.

What surprised me was that these people didn't seem to panic when they heard the sirens.

They seemed unfazed until the police intervened.

"I know everything. You can go." We were taken back to the nearby bureau by the police. The girl who was rescued by Er Fat was temporarily placed in another place and was comforted by personnel specialized in psychological counseling.

After listening to our descriptions, the police officer in charge of the interrogation did not seem to show the slightest surprise, but let us go calmly.

But the second fat man refused to give up and shouted angrily: "Leave!? Just let us go like this?! You don't care about those villagers who care so little about human life?!"

Next to him, Liu Sa tugged on Erpang's clothes: "Okay, okay, I'm a police officer, so if you have anything to say, talk to me.

They already know about this matter and will definitely handle it properly. Let’s not meddle in other people’s business.”

I saw Er Fatty’s fists clenched tightly and his joints cracking.

I know that the reason why Er Fat jumped into the water to save people without saying a word and was extremely concerned about this matter was not just because of his sense of justice and fighting against injustice.

In the past, the village where Er Pang and Nizi lived also had the custom of marrying He Bo, but according to Er Pang, it has been restrained a lot, and it only happens once every ten years. But by chance, she was chosen as He Bo's wife.

It’s Nizi.

Erpang liked Nizi very much when he was little. Compared to me who didn't know it, he suffered more. When something happened to Nizi, he blamed himself more than me.

The first time I met Er Pang again at Huang Zhong's tomb, he beat me up. In fact, he was not beating me, but his cowardly self.

Now I met He Bo getting married in a remote village near Dujiangyan. Er Pang must have fallen in love with the scene.

Even if the other person is not Nizi, he will help, and I will do the same.

But this is no longer a matter of touching the scene, but this is truly the life of a young girl in her prime.

The old police officer sitting opposite us waved his hand and told everyone else to go out.

We and the old police officer who was interrogating were the only ones left in the observation room. He faced us, sighed, lit a cigarette, slowly blew out a smoke ring and said: "Then what else do you want? Just take care of it?"

"

"I can save people. As the saying goes, save people to the end and send Buddha to the West. I can't let anything happen to that girl again."

I comforted the second fat man, sat down, and talked to the old police officer calmly: "Brother, do you know something? You see, this is a matter of human life, and everyone has a sense of justice, right? We don't say we are just taking care of it.

Anyway, we have rescued people, so we cannot escape the relationship."

"Tsk. Okay, I'll just tell you. If something happens then, I won't care about you." He took a puff of cigarette and said softly, "Actually, when I was first assigned here, I was just like you, loving

It’s nosy. But this matter is too evil to be dealt with.”

"What kind of evil method?" I asked.

"Do you know where this is?"

"where?"

The old police officer was stunned: "Don't you know? I thought you were just like the gang of troublemakers before, and you came here on purpose. Then what are you doing here?"

"Ah... we were traveling through it. We heard that this road is very close to Jiuzhaigou Valley, and the scenery is different. You can see the customs and customs of ethnic minorities along the way." I made up a lie to deal with him.

"Then you are really lucky to pass through such a shabby place. You can break up with the person who told you this road." The old police officer laughed, "I tell you,

There used to be monsters here."

"You are coaxing the children! There are also monsters. Why don't you say this is the 800-mile Liusha River, and there are sand monks below."

I slapped the talkative fat man and motioned to the old police officer to continue.

"I don't believe it's normal. I didn't believe it before. But I can't stand the evil in this place. The river passing through this village is a tributary of the Minjiang River. Going west is Dujiangyan. You know this, right?"

We nodded.

Following the road indicated by Zhuzhangke, we changed the route east of Guankou in Dujiangyan. There is a little-known trail between Pengzhou and Pidu. From here we can directly trace the ancient Shu ancestors and the Shushan clan from the past.

The remains of the southward migration route of the upper reaches of the Minjiang River.

The Yingpan Mountain ruins excavated in Maoxian County were also along this route. Now it is Yingpan Mountain. However, according to Zhuzhangke, Yingpan Mountain was an ancient city 10,000 years ago.

In fact, before departure, Zhuzhangke provided us with two routes: an easy one and an adventurous one.

If we choose the easy route, we can directly go upstream along Dujiangyan, pass through Wenchuan, Maoxian, pass Songpan Ancient City, and then take a fork in the road to Jiuzhaigou Valley.

This is a very classic tourist route. Half of the tourist buses heading to Chengdu will take the same road. There are Kangzhuang Avenue along the way. You can walk while watching the scenery and treat it as a tourist.

But on the contrary, this road is too leisurely. It’s not that there is no tension, but it’s not valuable to us.

This trip is not as simple as just reaching the Minjiang River, finding the silkworm bush, and being able to get rid of the poison.

According to what Zhuzhangke said, finding silkworms to remove the poison is just the goal. We still need to go through some things in the process, or get exact clues from certain places, which will help us trace Tongyuan in the future.

Moreover, Yanwei Gu is too old. Even if you have nine mother Gus in hand, without knowing the process of raising the poison and the specific process of applying the poison, even if you find the missing mother Gu, it will be useless.

Therefore, the most direct and effective route for us is to take the path with unknown dangers.

However, it is said that only a few people walked the entire length of this road, including my grandfather. However, no one left any written or even oral records. They only knew that this road was dangerous.

At the same time, this road is also the complete route of ancient Shu's migration to the south.

However, this can only be kept secret between the few of us, and it is impossible to tell this old police officer.

Just treat it as if we are here to travel, like Tang Monk who has to go through nine, nine and eighty-one difficulties.

He Bo's marriage was just the beginning.

The old police officer continued: "You may think that this place is remote and in the wilderness. In fact, I heard from the old man here that this place was also part of the Dujiangyan Irrigation Project, but for some reason it was abandoned.

According to my previous senior, it is probably related to the local water monster."

"Water monster? Real or fake!"

"Ang, I didn't believe it at first. Then one day it was my turn to patrol this area, and I actually saw something long in the water, like a particularly large python rolling in the river!

The thing was as thick as two buckets, and it had black scales on it.

But it scared me! The buddy who was traveling with me resigned within a few days. That is to say, I am determined to stay here until now."

The old police officer became more and more excited as he talked, spitting everywhere, and from time to time he used his hands to indicate the appearance and size of the monster in the river.

It seems to me that there is a dragon under the river.

Finally, he said that he and the people from the police station had contacted professional divers to go down to the river to investigate the situation, but none of the people who went there came back.

"Then what did they encounter at the bottom of the river?"

The old police officer rolled his eyes at me: “I want to know, I’m just telling you about this in my dreams right now.

I heard that many years ago, someone dug up a stone cow under the river. The locals said that the stone cow was the sacred beast here that controlled the sea. When it was dug out, the things underneath ran away. Maybe it was the monster in question.

All in all, I advise you not to wade into this muddy water."

The Erpang sneered: "After all that, you are not afraid. Does this have anything to do with stopping the sacrifice?"

The old police officer pointed at Er Fatty's nose and said, "Hey, don't believe it. Although I don't know the origin of the monster under the water, he has great powers. I have seen it with my own eyes. One year, there was a group of people like you.

He has a green head and stops the village's sacrifice.

As a result, the group of people all disappeared the next day, leaving only their luggage and clothes by the river.

Not only that, within two months, the flood season of this river suddenly came forward. It rained heavily, and the village was flooded overnight.

But I was still on vacation, and the bureau suddenly called us to organize emergency rescue and disaster relief. You didn't see the weather at that time. At twelve o'clock in the morning, there was a strong wind.

The whole sky was dark, and the water was rushing upwards as if the dike had burst. There was still a fishy smell in the river.

Not only that, I also heard something barking, the sound was very loud, like a pig or an ox. From then on, no one in the village dared to stop the people in the village from worshiping."

"Since then? You've been on duty for decades, wouldn't it mean that dozens of girls have died because of this? Your conscience won't hurt?" Erpang was furious.

The old police officer sneered: "Young man, you still don't see much. Sometimes it's better to save your life than anything else. Forget it, you go. I have done my best to advise you not to meddle in other people's business, but you won't listen."

Oh, by the way, if you die, we will not report it to the police."

The second fat man snorted coldly, grabbed the door and left. I saw him rush into the next door and leave with the girl in the wedding dress.

We quickly followed suit.

We followed Erpang outside the police station. As soon as we left the house, we were blocked by a large group of villagers at the door.

They held shovels and hoes in their hands and lined up in front of the police station.

In the crowd, I saw the goddess, her back was stooped, and she was not wearing the colorful clothes before, but a pair of ethnic minority costumes.

It is slightly similar to the Miao people's clothing, but it is still very different.

I have seen this kind of clothing in professional courses on ethnic minority culture.

This is the clothes of the Qiang people, but it is different from the clothes of the Qiang people today.

To be precise, this is the costume of the wizards of Yiqu State during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

When the villagers saw us coming out, they separated a road. The goddess walked out from the middle of the road. She pointed at us: "Foreigners, hand over your sacrifices, otherwise the gods will be angry."

The fat man protected the girl behind him and pointed at the goddess: "Old woman, you are quite crazy, are you the only one who can do this?
