When the little boy talked about this incident, he was still sweating on his face and back. Seeing that the other person was really frightened, Xiao Chen felt that he should do it to him even if he was not like the little girl.
Get some psychological counseling.
"Little brother, you don't have to be afraid. Big brother will help you catch that water ghost later."
Although Xiao Chen has not seen any water ghosts yet, he is certain that these three children definitely did not deceive him. There must be other scary things in the water, and it is probably similar to their fantasy of water ghosts.
Same thing.
After looking at this little brother, Xiao Chen went to see the other little brother who had been rescued. He had woken up, but he seemed to be in a trance mentally, and he was obviously still scared.
Xiao Chen is not afraid of water ghosts, he is worried about golden silkworm Gu.
After all, the Golden Silkworm Gu is the most terrifying poison among poisons, and now someone in Dongjiang Miao Village has been infected by the Golden Silkworm Gu.
When Xiao Chen came out of that little brother's house.
He thinks he should find the water ghost first? Or the person who poisoned people first.
However, in Xiao Chen's opinion, it always felt that it was related to this incident.
After leaving here with Patriarch Shi and returning to Patriarch Shi, Patriarch Shi had arranged two guest rooms for Xiao Chen, Mo Xiaowan, and Sang.
"Chief Shi, I think we should go to the riverside to deal with the water ghost tonight."
"Mr. Xiao, I'm afraid it's too dangerous to go there late at night."
Chief Shi said.
"It may be dangerous to other people, but to me, it's nothing."
Patriarch Shi looked at Xiao Chen and the others. If he hadn't known that the other party was from the Jiuli Sect, he really wouldn't have believed that Xiao Chen was capable of dealing with that water ghost.
In fact, this water ghost has a disgraceful history for the Dongjiang Miao Village.
"Mr. Xiao, in fact, this water ghost has existed for many years, and it also has a shameful history."
A disgraceful history?
"Chief Shi, if you think you believe me, you can talk to me."
In fact, many of the older generation of Miao villagers in Tokyo know about this matter, and even some younger ones have heard of it.
That is to say, many years ago, the earliest ancestors of Dongjiang Miao Village came from their
When other places develop here, they need mountains and rivers. From all aspects, life is pretty good.
Moreover, this place is relatively remote and can avoid those wars and chaos. When there is no war here, the Miao Village villagers are really living a good life.
However, for the village, the biggest disaster is the water ghosts in the water near Dongjiang Miao Village.
From that time on, after consultation with the three witches, the largest clan leader of the Miao village would dress up the boys and girls selected by the Miao village into cages on July 14th every year, and then throw them here.
In the river, pray that after the water ghost eats such boys and girls, it will not harm other Miao villagers who come to the river.
This was the situation that lasted for more than a hundred years.
After liberation in modern times, such things are no longer allowed, and many villagers are no longer willing to let their children be put into iron cages and then thrown into the water to be eaten by water ghosts.
In fact, Patriarch Shi's grandfather and father had told him about this matter back then, but later on they were indeed not allowed to do it, and there were no more three witches in the Miao village.
If it were back then, the Miao village chief and the three witches would have greater power and could even decide the life and death of the Miao villagers. If the Miao villagers did not want their children to be eaten below, then they would have no choice but to take them.
Pay more money and let other children take their place.
There is no doubt that this was very cruel back then.
Especially in the Miao Village where girls are favored over boys, I don’t know how many little boys who were only a few years old were put into iron cages, and then I don’t know whether they were really eaten by water ghosts or by the big ones inside.
The fish was eaten.
"Chief Shi, how were such sacrifices carried out back then?"
In fact, when Xiao Chen heard it, he knew that this was a very backward way of offering sacrifices. This had not only appeared in the Miao area, but also in all parts of the world.
Even, even now.
As for the Miao Village, although it no longer exists, it was indeed quite terrifying that something like this happened back then.
"Mr. Xiao, for the sake of fairness, we used to draw lots, so the villagers back then would work hard to have children, so that even if one was chosen by the lottery, there would be other children."
"Xiao Chen, I think this is too cruel." Mo Xiaowan said.
This must be very cruel.
However, in Xiao Chen's opinion, it was normal for things like this to happen in ancient times.
However, since Jiuli Sect has existed for a long time, didn’t Jiuli Sect send someone to deal with it back then?
"Chief Shi, didn't Jiuli Sect send someone to deal with it back then?"
"No." Chief Shi said.
Xiao Chen thought of Sister Sang's master's situation. He felt that Jiulimen really didn't pay attention to the affairs of the outside world before, and all they thought about was the underground cemetery.
"How many children have been sacrificed since records were recorded?"
"There should be more than two hundred."
More than two hundred?
Sang and Mo Xiaowan were both surprised.
Because each time a boy and a girl are required, after counting, over the past 100 years, there have indeed been more than 200.
"Xiao Chen, this is too scary." Mo Xiaowan said.
Xiao Chen really never thought that this kind of thing would really happen in Dongjiang Miao Village.
"Chief Shi, you have indeed seen that water ghost, so why didn't you catch him?"
"I have seen it before, and I even paid people heavily to catch this water ghost. However, without exception, those who entered the water to catch this water ghost died in the end. In the end, no one dared to catch it anymore.
This is a water ghost."
"Then why don't you move to another place?" Mo Xiaowan was very surprised.
If such a thing exists, in Mo Xiaowan's opinion, it should be moved to other places.
However, from Xiao Chen's point of view, the most chilling thing for him was that these clan leaders and the three witches used the boys and girls in the village to feed the invisible water ghost in the river.
This kind of world where people cannibalize people is the most terrifying.
Therefore, it seems that Xiao Chen needs to get rid of this water ghost first.
"Is there only one water ghost in the river, or are there multiple water ghosts? Or maybe this water ghost has a long lifespan and they have always lived in the river."
"Mr. Xiao, I'm not sure how many water ghosts there are in the river. As for how long their lifespan is, I'm not sure. What I can be sure of is that there are indeed such things in the river."
If only one person said it, it would definitely make people suspicious. However, this kind of thing has been happening in Dongjiang Miao Village for hundreds of years. There is no doubt that this is the most terrifying thing.
