While I was talking, I looked at Liu Huayan and had already made up my mind.
After listening to my words, Liu Huayan nodded thoughtfully.
At this moment, He Zhi suddenly shouted: "Who?!"
Her eyes suddenly looked into the woods.
Mao Lin was startled. She hid in a panic, but she just happened to grab my trouser leg and hid behind me.
Liu Huayan and I followed He Pheasant's gaze and looked into the forest at the same time.
Under an old tree with a crooked neck at the edge of the woods, there was a fox with white fur standing right now, with a pair of narrow willow-leaf eyes, staring straight at us.
Under the shade of the trees, a ray of moonlight just illuminated the white-furred fox. The corners of its mouth were raised as if it were smiling, but its eyes were slippery.
The furry tail was wagging slightly behind him.
At this moment, it suddenly turned around and ran directly up to the crooked-neck tree. After swaying its tail twice, it disappeared among the shadows of the trees.
"This Maojia Village has a lot of ghosts and monsters." I whispered. I recognized that the white-furred fox must be the same one that came to the water just now.
"We don't want to stay here for a long time. If these things stay in some places for a long time, that place will become their territory. It doesn't harm anyone, so it's better to do less than to do more." Liu Huayan said softly.
Obviously, her temperament is still different from Liu Tianniu.
If Liu Tianniu were here, he might be killed with one sword.
I nodded and asked Liu Huayan to take Mao Lin to the carriage and wait for us. He Zhi met me on the bank. I wanted to go down to the river again to see what was causing trouble in the water.
Liu Huayan hummed and pulled Mao Lin into the carriage.
He Zhi and I looked at each other, and she whispered to me: "No matter what it is, as long as we bring it ashore, we should be able to solve it."
I took a deep breath and said a nice word.
It's not that He Fei is blindly confident, her strength is indeed not weak.
Besides, my skills have made great progress now, and I also have Liu Huayan.
I think the "river god" in this section of the Hanging River Basin should not be our opponent.
After checking my belongings again, I entered the water directly from where I landed just now.
After entering the water, I didn't go upstream, but dived underwater.
As my whole body was submerged in the water, the pressure of the hanging river water began to squeeze my body from my limbs.
I held my breath, let my eyes adapt to the underwater environment, and continued downstream...
Although the hanging river in this section of the basin is narrow, the water is very deep.
I estimate that it must be at least twenty or thirty meters deep.
When I swam to the bottom, I had used up less than half of my breath.
I took out the pig's belly and took a breath. At this time, the light under the water was extremely dim, and I could only barely see the outlines of many things.
And these silhouettes were all still, no living things were seen, and I didn't see any corpses.
I swam back and forth at the bottom of the river for a while, until my vision got used to the dimness and I could see more clearly, but still nothing came out...
Are we really not there yet? Isn’t this place the home of the “River God”?
After hesitating for a moment, I changed my direction and continued swimming downstream.
I was not fast and kept looking down at the river bed at the bottom, for fear that I would miss something.
In about half an hour, I estimated that I would swim only about a hundred meters.
I took another breath with the pig's belly, and something at the bottom of the river bed made me stop...
It was a bamboo raft driven diagonally into the bottom of the river bed.
In addition to the bamboo raft, there is also a coffin...
The bamboo raft and coffin look very much like the ones that contained Mao Lin before!
I was slightly startled and suddenly became more cautious.
Is this the place?
After carefully leveraging the strength of the bamboo raft and approaching the coffin, I discovered that the lid of the coffin was partially open.
It was so dark inside the coffin that I couldn't see anything.
After hesitating for a moment, I stretched out a hand and groped into the coffin.
This was completely a subconscious move on my part.
But when I reached in, there was nothing inside. It was completely empty. I directly touched the bottom of the coffin.
Did the "River God" pull people out?
I tried to stay calm and continued looking in other directions.
Soon, I found more than ten coffins and bamboo rafts at the bottom of the river bed!
It is absolutely certain that this place is where the River God points the woman away, and the River God took away the woman in the coffin...
I became more vigilant, but the surroundings were still quiet, so quiet that there was no "thing", not even the river fish appeared.
After I paused for a moment, I took out something.
It was a dark jar.
This thing was also left to me by my father. My second uncle took it out and used it. It contained water corpse oil.
Everything under the water, including corpses, cannot resist the yin energy of the water corpse ghost oil.
I carefully opened the cap and shook the bottle a little, and suddenly a stream of grease came out of the bottle mouth.
When the grease came out as thick as my forearm, I quickly closed the lid.
As the water ghoul grease spreads out in the water.
I waited quietly, and at the same time I took out the divination knife in my hand.
This is already my last resort.
With this method, underwater things must appear!
However, I waited like this for almost a quarter of an hour, and I breathed several times. When the air in the pig's belly was almost exhausted, there was still no movement under the water...
My heart has completely sunk.
At this moment I don’t even know what went wrong...
The pig's belly was flat, so I had to go ashore first before I could figure out what was going on.
When I was about to swim to the water.
Subconsciously, I took out something else.
That is the compass hanging on my waist!
I was not sure at first whether a compass would work underwater.
But when I saw its hands moving, I knew that this treasure that is so unique to the earth actually works underwater!
However, as the pointer gradually returned to the center line without any deviation, my expression changed.
There are eight ways to fix the compass!
This last method is the right needle!
Under the right needle, it is a normal place, with no ghosts, no gods, no yin and resentment!
At least as far as I know, the Xuanhe River God is an underwater spirit, even if it is a water ghoul. It contains a lot of resentment and yin energy, which will definitely make the compass pointer change...
At this time, the positive needle appears, which means not only that there is nothing underwater in this section of the river basin...
There's even one more thing...
I looked up suddenly and looked at the coffin nearest me!
There is no river god here, and there are no corpses...
So where did all these women who offered sacrifices to the river god go? !
Dead without a body? !
