Xiao Xiao was a little surprised by the identity of the murderer.
Judging from the fact that the other party was able to reach the territory of this drowned ghost, the strength of that drowned ghost was obviously much higher than that of the tearful monster in front of him.
Moreover, the drowned ghost was quite obedient. After learning that there were humans here who could see monsters, he knew how to avoid their sharp edges.
Listening to what the drowned ghost said, it was clear that the red-eyed drowned ghost had a very selfish personality, and was very cautious in everything he did.
…
But, just run away after doing bad things... How can there be such a good thing in the world?
"Drunken ghost."
"Can you find any trace of the red-eyed drowned ghost?"
Xiao Xiao thought, since they are both drowned ghosts, they might have some feelings for each other, right?
…
The green-eyed drowning ghost looked confused.
Xiao Xiao:......
"Do not you know?"
"You have met the other person and been in contact with the other person. Can't you follow the other person's scent to find him?"
Monsters have sensitive five senses, which he thought were basic abilities.
The green-eyed drowned ghost rubbed his nose and became even more confused.
Xiao Xiao:......
"I see."
This monster should be an exception, right?
…
"Silver fish, red croaker, sea boy, white horse."
"Go find the drowned ghost with red eyes."
The monsters bowed their heads respectfully to Xiao Xiao, and then went in groups of two to both sides of the river.
Xiao Xiao looked at the dull-looking drowned ghost and said, "Wait for me, I'll go up and tell my friend."
"Then let's go find the red-eyed drowned ghost together."
The drowned ghost nodded blankly.
Then it reacted.
Huh?!
Well, a lot of monsters!
Who is this human being?
How did those monsters appear?
How could so many monsters appear out of nowhere?
...
The drowned ghost's forehead is filled with question marks.
Xiao Xiao suddenly became mysterious in Drowning Ghost's eyes.
What was originally just a simple feeling of gratitude for this human being suddenly turned into a complex emotion of gratitude and awe.
…
"Master Xiao!"
Seeing Xiao Xiao emerging from the water, the Pei family brothers and sisters spoke in unison.
They could vaguely see Master Xiao's movements in the water, but they didn't understand any more than they had before.
They were confused, and when they saw Master Xiao coming out of the water, they couldn't wait to ask something.
But I saw Master Xiao making a pause gesture, "You guys go back first."
"Next, I may have to spend some time."
"If you have any questions, wait till I get back."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Xiao turned around and entered the water again without waiting for their reply.
Now is not the time for casual talk.
Because we don’t know where the red-eyed drowned ghost has gone, so the faster we move, the greater the chance of finding it.
…
"Hey, Xiao-"
Pei You stretched out his hand, a little dumbfounded by Master Xiao's too crisp words and deeds, "Master."
"……gone."
The girl said blankly.
"……yes."
Pei Liang smiled bitterly.
He patted his sister on the shoulder and said, "Okay, let's just listen to Master Xiao and go back and wait for him."
"After all, there's not much we can do here to help."
"I'll wait here."
The girl stared at the water, her mind echoing the monster's cry for help that she had heard before.
There was no way she could calm down and wait for the news in the room.
...
Seeing the girl's focused look, Pei Liang was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I'll wait here with you."
The girl was startled, then turned to look at Pei Liang, "Thank you, brother."
"Pfft~, idiot, why are you so polite?"
Pei Liang raised his hand and rubbed his sister's hair.
"Oh, brother, your hair is all messed up."
Pei You subconsciously avoided it, his face full of resentment.
"Haha, your hair is just like instant noodles."
My brother, who has straight male aesthetics, teased rudely.
"What do you know?"
Pei You rolled his eyes.
She said she didn't want to pay attention to her brother who was laughing at her hairstyle for the first time.
Pei Liang ruffled the girl's hair again and then set his sights on the river.
Seeing this, Pei You straightened his hair and looked into the water.
However, after her brother made such a fuss, she found that she felt much calmer.
Everything... we will know when Master Xiao comes out.
All she needs to do now is wait patiently.
...
Xiao Xiao swam back to Drowning Gui, and after swimming forward a little further, he turned around and said, "Drowning Gui, let's go."
"Looking for red eyes?"
Drowned Gui subconsciously confirmed.
"Um."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
The drowned ghost opened his eyes suddenly.
Although Xiao Xiao's previous performance had greatly shocked it, his red eyes left a deep and terrifying impression on it.
After being rescued by Xiao Xiao, especially after the pain on its body was relieved, its desire for revenge became much less intense.
It knows that it can't beat the red eyes.
If you go, it will only increase your humiliation.
Maybe...even his life will be lost.
Anyway, it's fine. It doesn't want to look for red eyes. It just hopes that red eyes will never appear in front of it again.
...
Drowning ghost shook his head at Xiao Xiao, "No."
"I'm not looking for red eyes."
There was a hint of fear in his eyes, and he couldn't help but step back a little.
...
The unexpected situation made Xiao Xiao raise his eyebrows slightly.
To be honest, he really didn't expect that the drowned ghost would be so scared that he would even give up on revenge.
After all, it is really scarred all over.
And monsters always seek retribution.
But when he thought about it again, he felt that it was somewhat natural.
This monster is like a playful child who is afraid of pain.
It's normal to have a shadow in your heart after being taught a lesson like this.
Xiao Xiao was not willing to force this monster unless necessary.
But if it doesn't go away, who will identify the red eyes?
Now that there is a second drowned ghost, what if there is a third or fourth drowned ghost?
He didn't want to find the wrong person to settle the score with.
...
"Drown ghost, you just need to tell me when you see red eyes."
"I'll do the rest."
"I will protect you."
"I won't let it hurt you again."
Xiao Xiao looked at the silent monster seriously, "Trust me, come with me to find the red eyes, okay?"
...
The drowned ghost was confused.
Although it didn't want to see red eyes again, this human saved it and helped it heal its injuries.
Moreover, this human being can see it.
It has sent invitations to many humans, "Play with me."
However, only the human in front of it, Xiao Xiao, responded to it.
It's really a pleasure.
The game is no longer its one-man show, someone really plays with it.
And the mystery he showed just now also gave this human being's words a lot of credibility.
Maybe, this human being...can really beat Red Eyes?
...
"Drunken ghost."
Xiao Xiao saw the monster's wavering and spoke again.
Just like a straw was put into one end of the swinging scale, the drowned ghost's heart had a choice.
