王大嬸兒家的虎子命大，他在河水中游泳的時候，被死去多年的二超抓了替身。
那腳踝上的手掌印就是最好的證明！
但二超找錯了人，沒想到虎子命硬，竟然逃離了它的魔爪，被同去游泳的孩子帶了回來。
我們那邊有一個習俗，人要是落水被帶回家中後，無論生死，是萬萬不能上床的，需要找來一張草蓆或涼席之類的東西，將溺水之人放在上面。
這樣做的目的很容易理解，床是用來休息的地方，而地面是用來行走的，溺水之人很容易產生眩暈感，分不清楚自己是生還是死，若是將身體放在床上，就 會給他造成早日安息的錯覺，這樣溺水之人的三魂七魄便會自行離開軀殼，人也就徹底沒救了！
當然，還有另一種說法，人在離世的時候，會將身邊的事物帶走，如果躺在一張大床之上而亡，那麼他們死後就會背著大床，壓力很大，若是 換成了一張草蓆，那就輕鬆多了。
至於哪一種說法比較可信，這就看各位看官的想法了。
不過，我比較傾向第二種說法，因為我們這邊的老人快要過世的時候，都是不能躺在床上的，會有人事先在堂屋之中鋪上草蓆或秸稈之類的東西，把將 死之人抬在上面，直到嚥下最後一口氣，孝子哭喪叩頭之後，才能讓棺木進屋~~
當然，老死、病死在醫院之中的人除外，他們並不適用於這樣的傳統，後文會有詳細的闡述。
言歸正傳，將目光回到虎子身上。
這孩子之所以心中有怨氣，遲遲不肯離去，也是很容易理解的。
他小的時候，與虎子關係很是要好，說他們是兄弟也不為過。
就是這樣從小玩到大的兄弟，竟然想要取他性命，讓虎子成為自己的替代者，這換成任何一個人，恐怕都會生一肚子的氣吧？
別人臉色鐵青、發紫是一種死亡的表現，而虎子現在臉色發紫，完全是因為氣的！
這孩子之所以叫虎子，看來也是有原因的，人不大，氣性倒是不小。
當然，也正是他這種脾氣，才救了自己一命，只要虎子的三魂七魄一直在體內不出來，我就能保證，將他救活！
“爸，咱們現在去河邊找二超~”
解鈴還須繫鈴人，真要是想救下虎子，就必須找到二超！
若能成功化解兩人之間的怨氣，虎子腳踝上的手掌印便會消退，封印一旦消散，虎子的命門大開，三魂七魄才能徹底與軀殼融合，到時候，虎子就活 過來了~
「我帶著虎子和你們一起去！」
王大嬸兒得知我們的計畫後，要跟我們一同前去。
這確實是個不錯的選擇，如果我們能夠成功化解二超與虎子之間的恩怨，可以以最快的速度進行下一步計畫。
但是思來想去之後，我與父親還是拒絕了王大嬸兒的請求，如果二超很難對付，她在現場就會成為累贅，什麼都做不了。
我與父親出現在河邊，見河水很是平靜，沒有穢物出現。
莫非二超知道我們要來，提前躲了起來？
不排除這個可能！
我與父親蹲在河邊，離奇的一幕發生了。
一個東西朝著我們飄了過來，我定睛一看，發現在河面上飄著的東西竟然是一個龐大的秤砣！
秤砣，眾所周知，就是一個實心的鐵疙瘩，很是笨重，落入水中一定會沉底，但是今天的這個秤砣卻很是詭異，竟然朝著我們飄了過來！
“楠兒，它來了！”
父親口中的它自然指的是二超，這漂浮在河面上的秤砣，就是它找替死鬼的慣用伎倆！
很多人都會對這種事充滿好奇，便會湊上前去一探究竟，不知不覺中，身子就已經進入了河水之中卻不自知，從而變成了淹死鬼的替代者，悲催 的丟掉了性命！
“看來虎子就是吃了這秤砣的虧~”
一個十幾歲的孩子，正是對新鮮事物充滿好奇的年齡段，他自然不會放過這樣耐人尋味的事物。
“楠兒，你快看～”
父親督促我朝著河底望去，一顆頭顱出現在我的眼前！
那張臉蒼白無比，雖不能用手觸摸，也能感覺出這張臉的質感，一定縱享絲滑。
水中的臉睜著一雙黑洞洞的眼睛，直勾勾的望著岸邊的我，嘴角還露出一絲詭異的微笑！
額頭上的長髮肆意晃動著，如同無數雙勾人性命的觸手一般，做好了隨時發動過攻擊的準備！
我對二超有一點印象，河裡的這顆頭顱正是二超的！
“父親，如何是好？”
“引它入甕！”
父親的意思我很贊同，就是有一人假裝落水，吸引淹死鬼抓住自己，而另一個人趁機會出手，將淹死鬼丟到河岸之上！
炎熱的夏天，陽光甚是毒辣，離開水的淹死鬼撐不了太久的時間，就會化成飛灰，煙消雲散，而這個時候，我們就佔了主動權，可以以此作為要挾，跟淹死 鬼談判，讓它離去！
可是道理我都懂，問題是誰當那個假裝落水的人呢？
總不可能是我吧？
我還年輕，萬一出現了失誤，豈不會丟掉性命？
可是父親卻不一樣了，他已經活了這麼多年了，什麼都經歷過，也有了兒子，就算是失誤了，也不算太虧~~
我望著父親，眼睛中充滿了淚水，我怕父親這次下去後，再也上不來，這將是我們父子最後的相聚，我很是珍惜，很害怕失去父親~~
“爸，你可得小心一點啊！我不忍心失去你~~”
“放心吧，我會好好照顧自己的，你放心的去吧~~”
納尼？
父親見我有些許的猶豫，一個用力將我推進了河水中~
“這熊孩子哪來這麼多戲？”
我擦？
父愛果然沉重，如山崩地裂！
落水後的我假裝不會游泳，在裡面不斷的喊著救命，那淹死鬼二超兩眼放光，顯然中了我們的圈套，連忙游到我的面前，用兩隻細長的手緊緊 地抓住了我的兩隻腳踝！
“啊！”
那雙全是骨頭的手蒼勁有力，我的腳踝傳來了撕心裂肺的痛感！
我的骨骼有一種快要被捏碎的感覺，那種疼痛感直往我腦殼裡面鑽，讓我痛苦至極！
「爸，還等什麼呢？快動手！”
我不明白父親為何站在那裡沒有動靜，連忙喊他趕快救我，否則，我真的要交代在這裡了~~
「楠兒，你先撐一會兒，我還有其他的事情要辦！”
啥？
這時候你去幹啥？
還有比救兒子性命更重要的事嗎？
我很是絕望！
不過，接下來發生的事更讓我絕望，因為我看見又有六隻淹死鬼，朝著我的方向湧來！
一隻淹死鬼就夠我受得了，現在又來了六隻！
怪不得父親說有其他的事情要處理，讓我先撐一會兒！
Aunt Wang's Hu Zi was lucky. When he was swimming in the river, Er Chao, who had died many years ago, caught him as a substitute.
The palm print on the ankle is the best proof!
But Er Chao found the wrong person. Unexpectedly, Hu Zi was so lucky that he escaped from his clutches and was brought back by the child who went swimming with him.
We have a custom there. If a person falls into the water and is brought home, no matter whether he is dead or alive, he must not go to bed. He needs to find a straw mat or a cool mat and put the drowning person on it.
The purpose of doing this is easy to understand. The bed is a place for rest, and the ground is for walking. The drowning person is prone to dizziness and cannot tell whether he is alive or dead. If the body is placed on the bed, it will give him the illusion of resting early, so that the three souls and seven spirits of the drowning person will leave the body by themselves, and the person will be completely hopeless!
Of course, there is another saying that when people die, they will take away the things around them. If they die lying on a big bed, they will carry the big bed on their backs after death, which is very stressful. If they change to a straw mat, it will be much easier.
As for which statement is more credible, it depends on the readers' opinions.
However, I prefer the second statement, because when the elderly here are about to die, they cannot lie in bed. Someone will lay straw mats or straw in the main hall in advance, and carry the dying person on it until he takes his last breath. After the filial son cries and kowtows, the coffin can be brought into the house~~
Of course, people who die of old age or illness in the hospital are excluded. They are not subject to such traditions, which will be explained in detail later.
Let's get back to the topic and return to Hu Zi.
It is easy to understand why this child is resentful and reluctant to leave.
When he was young, he had a very good relationship with Hu Zi, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they were brothers.
Such a brother who grew up together actually wanted to take his life and let Hu Zi become his substitute. If it were anyone, I'm afraid they would be angry, right?
Other people's faces are blue and purple, which is a sign of death, but Hu Zi's face is purple now, completely because of anger!
It seems that there is a reason why this child is called Hu Zi. Although he is not big, he has a big temper. Of course, it is his temper that saved his life. As long as Hu Zi's three souls and seven spirits stay in his body, I can guarantee that he will be saved! "Dad, let's go to the river to find Er Chao now~" The person who tied the bell must be found to untie it. If you really want to save Hu Zi, you must find Er Chao! If you can successfully resolve the grievances between the two, the palm print on Hu Zi's ankle will fade. Once the seal dissipates, Hu Zi's life gate will open, and the three souls and seven spirits can be completely integrated with the body. At that time, Hu Zi will be alive~ "I will take Hu Zi with you!" Aunt Wang wanted to go with us after learning about our plan. This is indeed a good choice. If we can successfully resolve the grievances between Er Chao and Hu Zi, we can proceed with the next plan as quickly as possible. But after thinking about it, my father and I still rejected Aunt Wang's request. If Er Chao is difficult to deal with, she will become a burden at the scene and can't do anything. My father and I appeared at the riverside and saw that the water was very calm and there was no filth.
Could it be that Erchao knew we were coming and hid in advance?
This possibility cannot be ruled out!
My father and I squatted by the river, and a strange scene happened.
Something floated towards us. I looked closely and found that the thing floating on the river was actually a huge weight!
As we all know, a weight is a solid iron lump, which is very heavy and will sink to the bottom if it falls into the water. However, this weight today is very strange and actually floated towards us!
"Nan'er, it's coming!"
The "it" in my father's mouth naturally refers to Erchao. This weight floating on the river is its usual trick of finding a scapegoat!
Many people are curious about this kind of thing, so they will go forward to find out. Unknowingly, they have already entered the river without knowing it, thus becoming a substitute for the drowned ghost, and tragically losing their lives!
"It seems that Hu Zi suffered from this weight~"
A teenager is at the age of being curious about new things, and he will naturally not let go of such an intriguing thing.
"Nan'er, look~"
My father urged me to look at the bottom of the river, and a head appeared in front of me!
The face was extremely pale. Although I couldn't touch it with my hands, I could feel the texture of this face, which must be silky.
The face in the water opened a pair of black eyes, staring straight at me on the shore, and there was a strange smile at the corner of his mouth!
The long hair on the forehead was swaying wantonly, like countless tentacles that hooked people's lives, ready to launch an attack at any time!
I have a little impression of Erchao, and the head in the river is Erchao's!
"Father, what should we do?"
"Lure it into the trap!"
I agree with my father's idea, that is, one person pretends to fall into the water to attract the drowned ghost to catch himself, and the other person takes the opportunity to throw the drowned ghost onto the river bank!
In the hot summer, the sun is very scorching. The drowned ghost out of the water can't last too long and will turn into ashes and disappear. At this time, we have the initiative and can use this as a threat to negotiate with the drowned ghost and let it leave!
But I understand the reason, the question is who is the one who pretends to fall into the water?
It can't be me, right?
I'm still young, if there is a mistake, won't I lose my life?
But my father is different. He has lived for so many years, experienced everything, and has a son. Even if he made a mistake, it is not too bad~~
I looked at my father with tears in my eyes. I was afraid that my father would never come up after going down this time. This would be the last reunion between father and son. I cherish him very much and am afraid of losing my father~~
"Dad, you have to be careful! I can't bear to lose you~~"
"Don't worry, I will take good care of myself, you can go with peace of mind~~"
What?
Seeing that I was a little hesitant, my father pushed me into the river with force~
"Why does this naughty kid have so much drama?"
Damn?
Father's love is really heavy, like a landslide!
After falling into the water, I pretended that I couldn't swim and kept shouting for help. The drowned ghost Erchao's eyes were shining. Obviously, he fell into our trap. He quickly swam in front of me and grabbed my ankles tightly with his two slender hands!
"Ah!"
The pair of bones were strong and powerful, and my ankles felt a heart-wrenching pain!
My bones felt like they were about to be crushed, and the pain went straight into my head, making me extremely painful!
"Dad, what are you waiting for? Hurry up!"
I didn't understand why my father was standing there without moving, so I quickly called him to save me, otherwise, I would really die here~~
"Nan'er, hold on for a while, I have other things to do!"
What?
What are you going to do at this time?
Is there anything more important than saving his son's life?
I was very desperate!
However, what happened next made me even more desperate, because I saw six more drowned ghosts rushing towards me!
One drowned ghost was enough for me to bear, and now there are six more!
No wonder my father said that he had other things to deal with and asked me to hold on for a while!
