The moon in the night sky is covered with a layer of black fog, and the ghost moon is hazy.
The water in Yangjiang River is extremely fast and turbid.
It's impossible to dive into this turbid water because it's impossible to find your bearings!
I was very fast and kept chasing those dark figures.
Their speed was slower than mine, and I quickly caught up with them for most of the distance.
I could barely tell, there should be eight water ghouls, four of them holding one person.
They haven't dived yet.
Water ghouls are indeed more watery, but in this current, they should also be avoiding danger.
Farther away on the water, a pale head floated faintly.
It was only when I got a little closer that I recognized what kind of head it was, it was clearly a white-haired water ghoul!
Are they looking for the white-haired water ghoul to join up?
Wait for the white-haired water ghoul to take them deeper into the water? !
I deduced this result instantly, and my legs swung faster!
I gave up chasing these eight water ghouls and swam directly towards the white-haired water ghoul!
While swimming, I quickly took out the divination knife and bit it in my mouth!
After a while, I passed the eight water ghouls and went around to the front of the white-haired water ghoul!
Under the dim moonlight, its pale hair clung to its head and face, and its huge eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
I drew my knife quickly, bursting out even faster!
It was like a straight arrow, rushing towards me!
I paused suddenly, and the knife swung out from below!
A line of blood suddenly appeared from the water.
The moment the white-haired water ghoul rushed in front of me, I opened its abdomen with a fortune teller!
Before it died, its eyes were particularly ferocious and bloodthirsty, as if it hadn't guessed that I was only one person, but I could kill it!
There was no scream, and the white-haired water ghoul was swallowed up by the waves.
The water ghouls behind them made shrill and shrill screams.
Immediately, they let go of the two people they caught and swam quickly towards the white-haired water ghoul.
Ma Baojin's two sons obviously knew how to swim. After splashing on the water twice, they swam toward the shore with difficulty.
I didn't stay in the water for long and quickly followed their direction to the shore.
When we were almost a quarter of the way out, I approached the two young men, grabbed the shoulders of the slightly stronger young man, and whispered, "Hold your brother."
Then, I swam straight to the shore.
Ma Baojin reached the point where his calves were submerged in the water.
When I got close to him, I let go of my hand and propped myself up.
He immediately went to pull his two sons.
I went ashore, and the three father and son came up after me.
I shook my head and twisted my clothes again.
Ma Baojin walked up to me tremblingly, and with a bang, he knelt straight on the ground.
His two sons looked pale and looked at each other, obviously not knowing what to do.
"Mr. Li is kind and righteous... I didn't expect that when we meet again, he will be able to save the lives of my two sons..." Ma Baojin's voice was hoarse.
He turned his head and whispered: "Ma Baozhong! Ma Baoyi! Why don't you kneel down quickly and thank Mr. Li for saving your life?!"
The stocky young man was obviously Ma Baozhong, and he knelt down with a bang.
Ma Baoyi was a little late.
I sighed softly and said, "Get up."
Ma Baojin stood up, and then his two sons stood up.
"You should have recognized me before." I spoke again.
Ma Baojin lowered his head. It was obvious that he was a little flustered and uneasy.
"You are afraid of me. It seems that you know about Ma Kuan?" I asked again.
Ma Baojingang's face turned pale again after he got better. He said bitterly: "Years ago, in Bazhou, a group of people who dug graves were arrested. I heard that it was a few gentlemen who did it. After arresting the people, they were handed over to them. When he entered the official family, his leader died miserably."
"Before that, I received a letter from Ma Kuan. He said he had captured your servant and wanted to find your whereabouts. He wanted to ask me to go to the ground together again, but I didn't agree at the time."
"He deserved his death. When I saw Mr. just now, I felt a little unspeakable in my heart, so I just left."
After Ma Baojin finished explaining, I nodded and replied calmly: "The enmity has been settled, you have never done any evil, and you have been in Kaiyang for many years. I will not embarrass you."
Ma Baojin's face became even more bitter. He turned his head and looked behind him and said, "Mr. Li repays evil with kindness. I can already see it."
Then, Ma Baojin made a gesture of invitation and said: "Mr. Li, come with me to Yizhuang. I saved the two sons. Ma should be grateful."
I shook my head and said, "There is no need for a thank you. I want to ask you something, and I will treat it as a reward."
Obviously, Ma Baojin knew the rules very well, and he immediately nodded again.
I asked him directly, do they know the origin of the water ghoul in Yangjiang River?
Ma Baojin hesitated for a moment and then said: "I don't know the origin, but about three years ago, suddenly, a large number of water ghouls appeared overnight. In the first batch, many people died, and their faces were all eaten. "
"There were people collecting corpses around here, but all of them died that day."
"Dad... not all of them are dead, there is only one left." From behind, Ma Baozhong spoke in a loud voice.
Ma Baoyi nodded repeatedly.
Ma Baojin was stunned for a moment. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded immediately and said: "Yes... I almost forgot... there is one left... but he is not much different from dead."
I cast a questioning look.
Ma Baojin said: "Back then, there were less than ten people fishing for corpses in Yangjiang. Because the water here was dangerous, people were always needed to fish for corpses. They made a lot of money. On the night when the water ghoul hurt people, more than ten people fished for corpses. The zombies are working together, and they even told me in advance to ask us to collect the bodies of the water ghouls and help them practice corpse oil."
"As a result...that night, the water surface was blood red..."
"The whole army of corpse collectors was wiped out, just on the water, and was chewed into bones."
"Only one person escaped, and half of his face was eaten away..."
"And the water ghoul has a grudge. For a long time, it came ashore on rainy nights, trying to bite him..."
"He was driven crazy after that. As time went by, I thought he was dead."
I frowned and asked, "How many white-haired water ghouls have you seen on the water back then?"
"No less than twenty." Ma Baojin replied.
My eyelids twitched wildly, and my pupils shrank a lot.
The white-haired water ghouls have almost matured into spirits. There are no fewer than twenty here, probably as many as the Red River...
And even more…
It would be impossible for me to get rid of them.
They had to be brought out of the water, and Liu Zhengdao or Yang Qingshan had to help.
I squinted my eyes slightly and thought quickly.
Next, I asked Ma Baojin, how many corpses were there in their Yizhuang?
