The Corpse Recoverer from the Yellow River
by L Laoliu
About This Novel
The water of the Yellow River is muddy and has been muddy for thousands of years. Grandpa said that there is everything in this water - the bones of the Qin and Han Dynasties, the souls of the Tang and Song Dynasties, the machetes of the Tatars, and the guns of the Eighth Route Army. I have lived on the river for forty years, fished out dead people for half my life, and seen more things than the people on the shore put together in their lifetimes. But there are rules in our business. Sanbulao handed down from our ancestors: If you don't fish out the ownerless corpses - if no one claims them, the River God will take them away. Second, don't pick up the corpse with its eyes open - if the eyes are still open, then they have something to say and can't be disturbed. Third, don't fish out red corpses-those who go into the river wearing red clothes have made a wish, and big things will happen if you fish them out. I remember clearly that it was the half of July of the Bingshen year, when the gates of hell were wide open. I broke the rules.
