At night, it was quiet and windless. The half-blind man lived in a remote area. Not only could he not hear a single human voice, not even the chirping of insects or birds. On a summer night, it was really quiet and strange.
Soon it was twelve o'clock in the evening, and the half-blind man once again felt an overwhelming sleepiness. As soon as he closed his eyes, he fell asleep.
Shu Yao, who was sitting on the side, walked over and saw her silhouette turning into a phantom, disappearing next to the half-blind man in the blink of an eye.
"Damn it, it's here again." The half-blind man once again appeared in the familiar place, the gloomy pond, and a bag of money on the side.
"Master, master, are you there?" the half-blind man shouted at the top of his lungs.
The clear and melodious voice of Shu Yao came from behind: "Why are you howling? I'm here."
The half-blind man looked back excitedly, but saw no one. He whispered: "Master, where are you?"
Shu Yao did not take the initiative to show up. She looked around and replied: "Don't scare the snake, you can't see me now."
"Then Master, what should I do?" Although the half-blind man's legs were still trembling, he was not as scared as before.
Shu Yao: "You go forward."
The half-blind man didn't dare to move at all, and asked tremblingly, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the pond."
"Ah?" The half-blind man's face turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He hesitated, "Do you really want to go?"
Seeing his frightened look, Shu Yao added: "After a person is asleep, the soul is the lightest, and it is easiest to leave the body. This can be said to be your dream, or it can be said that it is your dream.
The soul was pulled into the world woven by his resentment. This pond should be the place where he died, and his resentment is strongest here. As long as you step forward, he will appear."
"Then I -" The half-blind man was still afraid.
"Hesitating, do you still want to lift the ghost seal?" Shu Yao sneered coldly, "Besides, with me here, nothing can happen to you. Even if something does happen, I can get your soul back to you when it reaches the Palace of Hell.
.”
Hearing this, even though the half-blind man's hands and feet kept shaking, he still straightened his chest and took the first step cautiously: "Master, I have to go."
The half-blind man moved slowly towards the edge of the pond at the speed of a turtle. The further he walked, the more his legs trembled. Finally, he finally reached the edge of the pond.
The water surface was very calm, with occasional ripples blown by the wind. The half-blind man's legs were sore from standing on the water, and his original fear became dispensable during the long wait.
But at this moment, the arc of the ripples on the water surface widened a bit, and a black shadow under the water rushed to the shore at an extremely fast speed.
The bored half-blind man didn't even notice this.
A pale and skinny hand suddenly grabbed his feet and dragged him into the pond.
"Ah!" The half-blind man came back to his senses instantly, screamed in fright, sat down on the ground, and rolled and crawled to the shore, "Master, help, this thing is out."
There is no reason to let go of the prey that he has obtained. A ghost figure suddenly rushed out from the water and climbed up bit by bit along his feet.
A ferocious smile appeared on his pale, swollen, blistered face.
The half-blind man was so frightened that he closed his eyes tightly, his legs were so cold that he could not even tremble, and half of his body was almost frozen. He screamed desperately, and his voice was shriller than the rooster that crowed in the morning.
At this moment, a figure appeared beside him and stepped on the climbing water ghost with one foot.
The water ghost's movements stopped, and the powerful force suppressed him, unable to move at all.
The half-blind man kicked off the water ghost's hand with his legs, swallowed his saliva, and his beating heart almost jumped out of his chest. He staggered up from the ground, hid behind his comfortable body, and poked out a pair of eyes.
Looking at the water ghost on the ground: "Master, how should I deal with this thing?"
This water ghost is also a guy who bullies the weak and fears the strong. Seeing that the half-blind man is easy to bully, he wants to make him a scapegoat. Now he realizes that Shu Yao is a tough guy. He immediately understands and begs for mercy pitifully: "Master, it is this half-blind man who caused me to be here."
First of all, I have an eighty-year-old mother in my family and a child who is waiting to be fed. Who can they rely on to feed them?"
The half-blind man's eyes widened. This thing looked fierce when it was in front of him, but now it was pretending to be pitiful in front of the master.
He rolled up his sleeves and stuck out half of his head aggressively: "Please tell me clearly, when did I hurt you?"
