The reason is simple.
Jiang Pan has lived in Honghe for many years, and Mr. Tianyuan's name has already spread throughout the lower reaches of Panjiang River.
Swarms of kelpies are a problem.
Of course, there is still the possibility of coincidence with the water ghoul.
But the dog corpse under the water couldn't be a coincidence.
Its location is also extremely special...
There is no other possibility except that someone is targeting Jiang Pan.
I put away the gold ruler, held the divination knife in my right hand, untied the pig urine bag from my waist with my left hand, put it to my lips and took a breath.
I didn't touch the dog corpse, but turned around and glanced in other directions.
Diagonally in front of me, there stood a huge rock with a crack in the center of the rock.
In the crack, there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at me.
My heart beat slightly, I moved my legs a little, and swam forward.
Halfway through the swim, I was thoughtful and instinctively looked back again.
From this angle, the dog corpse in that position seemed to be shaking and ready to get up at any time.
I murmured in my heart: "Tengu Sha bit?"
However, what makes me even more puzzled is that there is a dog corpse in the Tengusha position, which belongs to the god's seated position.
According to house scriptures, this is a taboo on the wedding day!
There is a god sitting in the Tengu evil position, and there are evil spirits who will kill women!
My body suddenly stopped and I looked up.
Then, I looked at the position of the huge rock just now. The eyes staring at me in the gap disappeared.
I feel like I've vaguely captured something, but it's not clear yet.
I continued swimming forward, and after a while, I arrived in front of the rock.
Staring at that gap, this place can only allow one person to get in...
There are only two things that can stare at me underwater.
One is the corpse in the water, and the other is the water ghoul.
Corpses carry so much grievances that even walking corpses cannot be that flexible.
One moment he was staring at me, the next moment he was gone.
The biggest possibility left is the water ghoul...
But, I don't dare to get into this rock.
There are too many water ghouls. If I go in and there is a group inside, or if I go in and some come out from all around to block me, then even if I have the protection of my destiny, I will inevitably not be seriously injured.
The top priority is to find out who wants to take advantage of Jiang Pan, and to get rid of the dog corpse that day.
Turning around, I returned to the front of the dog corpse, took off the green hemp rope from my shoulders, tied the head of the dog corpse, and swam upward with all my strength.
The dead body was extremely difficult to pull.
It took a lot of effort for me to swim out of the water.
As a result, the moment I took my head out, raindrops fell on my face.
There was a roar of thunder, followed by lightning, and white light illuminated the entire Red River water surface.
This lightning almost blinded me.
When I finally regained my sight, I heard a sharp whistle!
No, not just one, but three in a row!
On the pier in the distance, there are people shaking their arms vigorously!
My complexion suddenly changed!
Three whistles are the command for the corpse collector to recall.
The more urgent and sharp it is, the more danger it represents!
My vision finally returned to normal, but from the corner of my eye I saw dense numbers of heads floating on the water around me.
Those are all the heads of water ghouls!
My heart skipped a beat!
However, I quickly calmed down.
After leaving the bottom of the water, no matter how many water ghouls are on the surface, they may not be able to hurt me.
However, I have determined that all six boatmen were dead, and their flesh and blood were eaten clean.
In addition, I was holding the dog corpse, so there was no need to tangle with these ghosts underwater.
I swam directly towards the dock.
At this moment, all those water ghouls submerged into the water...
On the blurry water surface, you can see waves of undercurrents, which are waves formed by those water ghouls. They are all approaching me!
The weight on my shoulders suddenly relaxed!
Suddenly, my expression changed again!
I know that those water ghouls did not attack me first, but instead broke the green hemp rope...
If the green hemp rope is broken, the dog corpse will fall back.
My breath suddenly suffocated!
The next moment, a hole suddenly opened in the water in front of me.
What emerged from it was an old water ghoul whose hair had almost fallen off.
It bared its teeth, its sharp teeth flashing with cold light, and rushed directly towards my face!
Suddenly, it opened its mouth, clearly intending to bite through my neck!
I frowned, but ignored its attack.
The moment the old water ghoul was about to touch me, its entire body suddenly fell heavily into the water.
It looked back in horror, then dived into the water and disappeared...
The ripples on the water around me disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Have all the other water ghouls escaped?
What is it that scares them away? !
I looked far away at the pier, but with this kind of visibility, I couldn't see anything at all.
The green hemp rope on my shoulder was empty, and I had no time to go down and salvage the dog carcass again.
After swimming forward for about half a cup of tea, I finally approached the pier.
As I got closer, I saw that the townspeople from before were still here.
It was just because of the heavy rain that all the torches were extinguished, so I didn't see them.
"Yin Yang, you come up first." From the right side of the crowd, He Pheasant's voice called me.
I climbed onto the pier, and He Zhi immediately stepped forward and gave me the clothes I had taken off earlier.
The townspeople backed away a little, and Gou Xuan called me nervously, asking if I was hurt?
I nodded first and glanced at He Fei. Apart from being wet a lot, she had no other problems.
Immediately afterwards, my eyes scanned the rest of the places and I had already seen all the people.
At this glance, I didn't find anyone special.
But something must have happened just now, otherwise all the water ghouls wouldn't have been scared away.
"Mr. Li?" Gou Xuan called me again.
At this time, the crowd suddenly gradually separated.
Two people came from behind.
One of them was Jiang Shi, and his expression was extremely respectful.
Following Jiang Shi was Liu Zhengdao.
Suddenly, I suddenly realized, is it because Liu Zhengdao is here? Did he use some means? !
The Taoist priest of the Liu family had an aura of righteousness running through his chest. Not to mention the water ghoul, even the ghoul that was not fierce enough would not dare to turn into evil spirits after seeing it.
Just now I asked Jiang Shi to invite Liu Zhengdao to avoid the danger of me being unable to deal with the water ghoul.
"Taoist Master Liu." I clasped my fists and said in a deep voice, "Thank you very much." Liu Zhengdao frowned slightly, and he said with a little confusion in his eyes, "Why do you thank me?"
My body stiffened and I said, "Didn't you just drive away the water ghouls on the water?"
Liu Zhengdao looked towards the water, squinted his eyes slightly, and said: "I was in meditation just now. It took me a while before I came out with Jiang Shi. I just got here and I didn't help you."
