Chapter 38
Before the family went out today, they specified that they didn’t read the almanac~~~
Jiang Jiuying couldn't help stroking his forehead.

I thought that I would be fine after leaving that horrible resort and returning home.Who would have thought that before they arrived home, they would meet a dead man on the way!
A dead person is nothing more than a giant concept that can make people feel sick for three days after just one look, and half-life can be smoked away by a smell.

Oh, what a hot eye!
Junyang Town is located five miles outside the city of Anqing Prefecture. A Jun River divides the town into north and south sides, and bears the water transportation of several nearby counties and counties, so the transportation is convenient.

Right now the government does not impose a curfew, and Junyang Town is so close to Fucheng, people come and go from the pier by the river and the post station, it is very lively.

The location of Juntan Village is very good. The village basically relies on the town’s wharf to make a living. Those who have enough money can open a foot shop and food shop, and those who have enough strength can load and unload ships. Even children can run around to spread the word and earn snacks. Money, every family life is very prosperous.

Huang Ermao was eight years old at the time. He was a very strong boy. He grew up fishing with his parents on a boat since he was born. He is better at water than walking. Go to the bottom of the water and reincarnate like a loach.

He is the best person to fight against injustice, he can't see the big bullying the small, the strong bullying the weak, he has a lot of prestige among the children on the dock, and anyone who is bullied is willing to complain to him.

Today, a little friend came to him to complain. Li Goudan said that he picked up a gold armlet by the river, and it was just picked up by the river before it was warmed up, so Fat Qiang saw it, and insisted that it was lost by their family. , directly snatched away.

The ownerless things on the riverside belong to whoever finds them. If the owner comes to look for them, they will naturally return them and ask for some compensation. In short, they will not suffer.

Therefore, children who usually have nothing to do always like to stroll around the river, and some of them are as good at water as Huang Ermao, and they even go into the water to fish.

Huang Ermao didn't take it seriously at first. After all, gold is something in legends. He has only seen some scattered silver when he grows up.Li Goudan's family is even poorer than him, how could he know that what he picked up was gold.

Whether something is worth money or not is one thing, the rule is that whoever finds it first gets it.Fat Qiang relies on himself to be fat and strong, and always likes to grab people's things, which is an existence that all children in this area hate.

Huang Ermao felt that he couldn't lose his reputation as the king of children, he had to take care of it!
So Li Goudan regained his backbone in an instant, and took Huang Ermao back to find a place.When he first picked it up, he only had time to take a look at it. The workmanship was extremely delicate and beautiful. Even if it wasn't made of gold, it must be worth a lot.

"Fat Qiang, return what you stole from Li Goudan!" Huang Ermao rolled up his sleeves and said viciously.

Fat Qiang is used to domineering, so naturally he refused.The two didn't agree with each other, so they started directly and scuffled together.

Huang Ermao's kung fu in water is good, but his fist and kick skills are not good enough. He was beaten by Pang Qiang until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. Seeing that he was about to embarrass himself in front of all the little brothers, in a hurry, he pulled Pang Qiang hard and fell into the Jun River go.

With a bang, the two fell into the water.

Fat and strong, with a clumsy body and uncoordinated limbs, he sank to the bottom of the river like a weight.Huang Ermao was like a fish in water, took the opportunity to kick Fat Qiang a few times to save some face, and then wanted to drag him ashore.

I don't know what happened to Fat Qiang, he usually knows how to swim, but today he couldn't swim at all, and fell straight down.

Heavy and heavy, it's not something Huang Ermao, an eight-year-old child, can handle!

It's over, this is no joke!Huang Ermao tried to open his eyes, and saw Pang Qiang staring at him behind him, his fat face was so frightened that he had no blood at all, and he had already drank four or five sips of water after a while.

Huang Erniu thought to himself, how can I be so scary?Is there something behind him?

The scariest thing in this river is a slightly older water snake, with thick and thin arms, if it really entangles a person who can't swim, it has to be kept as a ration for a snake, but Huang Ermao is not afraid, he is slipperier than a loach.

He also turned his head away, wanting to see what frightened Fat Qiang.

Seeing this, he also choked on a few mouthfuls of water, and almost became a drowned ghost!

The two children, who were good swimmers, finally woke up from their fear. They crawled ashore half-dead, and ran to the adults crying: "Dead! There are dead people in the river!"

At first, adults didn't take it seriously.

People who live on the water have a very high psychological tolerance for drowning in the river.

Since I was a child, I have never seen ten or eight river floaters, and I am ashamed to say that I live by the water, and everyone has already seen it.

If there are dead people, they should be fished out, and those who have knowledge can teach them to return to their roots and not to be lonely ghosts.It also means accumulating some virtue for yourself, who knows if you will just wait for others to take advantage of you next time.

So a group of laborers put down their work first, appeased the frightened children, took their tools and prepared to catch people.

On the vast river, where are the dead?
Huang Ermao was still in shock, so he could only roughly judge the location, pointing to the bottom of the water: "Under the bottom, under the cage, it's locked in a cage!"

What?underwater?cage?Wasn't it someone who died accidentally?

No matter how much, everyone goes into the water to find people.There is a dead man at the bottom of the river, whether to eat the fish or not is always a taboo.

Even if they were mentally prepared, the big men were still shocked, and when they hurriedly fished the dead man out of the cage, they had time to turn their heads to vomit.

Without it, dead people stink too much, black and fat and stinky!
When everyone was picking up dead bodies by the river, the Jiang family's carriage stopped at a teahouse not far away. Jiang Jiuying quickly got out of the carriage, drank a glass of water, and calmed down.

Before the water was in his mouth, he smelled the stench first.

This stench, which is as familiar as a maggot attached to the bone, can only be.
Jiang Wenyuan also frowned, told his family to stay behind, and led them to the source of the smell.

Sigh~ Jiang Jiuying sighed, I'm afraid the picture won't be too good-looking.

The pier, which was originally crowded with people, suddenly vacated a large area. It was really smelly, more than rotten fish and shrimp.

Some people began to complain: "Oh, what are you doing with a pig cage? This must be a woman who made a mistake and was punished by the family. She died in the river, and she could be cleaner. Who is disgusting?"

That's right, a woman who doesn't obey women's morals is caught and raped by her husband's family. Although dipping in a pig cage is not common, it is also a behavior that everyone recognizes.

The people will not sue, and the officials will not investigate. As for whether this woman is innocent or deserves what she deserves, no one is willing to delve into it. It is only a topic after dinner.

"Put it in the river again, who will dare to buy the fish in this river in the future?"

Some fish are not picky, and they will eat whatever they can find, regardless of fresh or rotten meat.Wouldn't it be a long time for these fishermen to lose their harvest?

Jiang Wenyuan soon arrived at the river, and the two groups of people throwing and not throwing the corpse were arguing lively.

"Master Tong is here, you wait to back down quickly!" The people brought by Pinggui parted ways, and Jiang Wenyuan saw the corpse in the cage in the shape of a giant at a glance.

The poor-quality tea he just drank regurgitated and swirled in his throat.
