"But the seven people soaked in the water refused to get on the boat no matter what. They raised their heads, stared at the people on the boat, and kept repeating those words to persuade people to go into the water. That scene...

That scene was incredibly weird.

"Someone took a lantern from the boat and shone it into the water, and found that the faces of these...these people underwater actually glowed with a faint green color!'

Yu Chengmu looked at the river, frowned slightly, and after a moment he whispered: "It's a water ghost."

"That's right!" The old man nodded sharply and continued in a hoarse voice, "The old man on the boat immediately realized that they were entangled by the water ghost, and the people who entered the water were probably captured by the water ghost.

."

"At this time, they no longer care about the fishing nets. They need to row the boat away immediately and return to the shore. The sooner the better!"

"But no matter how hard they rowed, the boat seemed to have taken root, and it couldn't row. It was still spinning on the water.

"Then, someone shouted, saying that those people in the water were sinking and disappearing."

"As soon as he finished speaking, the person who made the cry shook the boat violently."

"The people on top didn't stand firm, so two people fell into the water immediately. The person who yelled also fell into the water."

"But before he could call for help, the person sank very fast. In the blink of an eye, both of them were gone."

"Some people later recalled seeing many hands stretching out from the water. Those hands grabbed the two people and dragged them down." "The water was black at that time, and those hands were extremely white, pale and pale. Look,

It didn't look like a living person's hand, but it looked like it had been soaked in water for who knows how long.

"What happened next?" Du Moyu urged with a gloomy face.

"While these two people were being dragged into the water, the boat suddenly started to move. The rest of the people's minds went blank and they didn't care about anything. They just rowed desperately." The old man breathed a sigh of relief and looked at them with complicated eyes.

"In this way, I escaped back to the shore and saved my life.

"That night, when I heard that something like this had happened, the village exploded. Everyone was worried all night long."

"The most senior elders in the village got together and after discussion, they determined that the villagers had offended the river god in the Dushui River, and the river god was punishing him for all this."

"It was finally dawn, and the old village chief gathered the whole village together. Everyone took the sacrifices and went to the river again, intending to worship the river god and ask him to appease his anger."

"This time, as soon as we arrived at the river, everyone was dumbfounded. They found that the river had actually receded, and on a big rock in the mudflat not far from the river bank, there was actually a large piece of fishing net wrapped around it. Most of the fishing net was still there.

In the river."

"After the villagers discussed it, they sent a few young people with good water skills to walk over on the wet mud, carefully untied the fishing net wrapped around the rocks, then pulled the fishing net and quickly returned to the shore."

"The fishing net is very heavy, and the other end is still in the river. A few strong young men can't pull it at all. More and more people come up to help.

"As the fishing net was pulled out of the water little by little, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them. There were people hanging on the fishing net. No, it was... a corpse!"

"One corpse was connected to another, and the latter corpse pulled the feet of the previous corpse with such force that it could not be broken apart. First, the two people who were shaken into the water were shaken, and then the seven people who jumped into the water on their own initiative.

"Finally...finally, after all the fishing nets came out of the water, there were a lot of corpses inside the nets."

"The corpses were all soaked and entangled with each other. It was impossible to tell who was who, but who else could it be? It must be the villagers who were washed away by the flood!"

Having said this, the old man's breathing became rapid, and his pupils shrank uncontrollably, "Who would have thought... Who would have thought that the bodies of these villagers were not washed away, but were gathered together, right... right in the water

Down!"

"While collecting the corpse, we also found that the abdomen of the corpse was severely swollen. Although the corpse was soaked, everything..." the old man gestured with his hands, with an exaggerated expression, "They all looked like that, but the abdomen of the corpse

It’s especially exaggerated, the outer skin has been stretched out until it becomes transparent.”

"One of the corpses accidentally fell to the ground while it was being restrained, and its belly exploded as if it had been blown away.

"The stomach was full of fish fragments, and... there were also some aquatic plants, sludge, and the like. It smelled particularly fishy."

"Everyone was talking privately, as if these corpses had been living under the water for a while. It was these corpses that had eaten up all the fish in the Dushui River!"

Hearing this, Yu Chengmu twirled his beard and sneered, "Little ghosts eat wax, dead people carry coffins, and corpses hang under the water. Your village has done so many evils!"

Hearing Yu Chengmu's words, the old man's face turned ugly, but he was still explaining, "What did the master say? Our village... the village occasionally treats people well, but they don't dare to do things that are harmful to nature.

There is a god!”

"You are confused in your own mind whether you have done anything harmful to nature or not." The fat man couldn't stand it anymore and stared at the old man.

Jiang Cheng looked at the old man and said with a fierce expression: "Okay, now tell us about the Wu family. Why do you call the eldest daughter of the Wu family Empress Dahe? What has she done for the village that makes her worthy of you?"

Build a temple specifically for her."

"Hey_" mentioning Miss Xie Hongrong, the old man sighed subconsciously, "This Miss Wu family is the benefactor of our entire village. Without her, the masters would not be able to see our village now."

Lei Mingyu didn't give the old man face, and looked fierce, "What, you still think we are willing to see your village?" The old man was scolded and couldn't help but shrink his neck, "Masters, what I just talked about on the fishing net

Corpses, those water ghosts, and many other things like this. Many people died in the village. We...we really couldn't live anymore.

"We killed all the best livestock in the village and threw them into the crossing river to offer them to the river god, but it was still of no use."

"Until late one night, a man in our village seemed to have suddenly gone mad. He went from house to house and knocked on the doors. He said that he knew why the river god was angry. It was because the river god was too noisy under the water and asked the village to dedicate a woman to him.

Be a wife."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng frowned suddenly, as if he could have foreseen a tragedy happening.

The fat man also hated such things and couldn't help but said angrily: "If he dares to say such a thing, do you dare to believe it?"
