I smiled bitterly and shook my head. Seeing Xiao Wang's aggrieved look, I felt a little distressed.
The two cars came to the lake. The sun was shining brightly and the lake was very calm.
The clear lake water has no ripples, and the fish in the lake are darting among the water plants. With this scenery, no one can imagine that there is evil in the lake.
"What should I do?" Heizi squatted by the lake and asked in a deep voice.
"I'll go down and take a look." I said and started looking for suitable ships around me.
"No." Before I could move my legs, the three women all glared at me.
"I won't go far, just go in a little bit. What do you think of the view from this shore?" I said with a smile.
I chose this strategy purely because there was no evil spirit or yin energy in the lake, and I didn't know if it was because of the large area of the lake.
"Ugh..." Dahei suddenly growled toward the lake.
In fact, another reason why I chose to go in and take a look is that Dahei didn't find anything before, but now Dahei suddenly behaved like this. It may be that the evil spirits in the lake heard my words and came out to demonstrate.
But when I looked in the direction of Dahei's roar, I only saw some water plants and no trace of evil spirits at all.
"Master, let us go." Wei Yucheng and Liang Feng spoke at the same time.
"I have to find out what it is first." I rejected the two ghosts with my thoughts.
"Zhang Tianshi, do you really want to go into the water?" Xiao Wang came over nervously.
"When is it your turn to intervene in Uncle Master's affairs?" Lao Wang pulled him back.
"Don't worry, it's okay." I comforted the three women with a smile, and I walked towards a wooden boat not far away.
When I was a kid, Heizi and I rowed in the village fish pond all day long, catching fish and swimming. When it came to rowing, I was almost like a professional boatman.
"Be careful." Heizi frowned and chased after him.
"Don't worry, if that thing dares to touch me, Wei Yucheng and Liang Feng will tell him to never reincarnate." I said this not only to Heizi, but also to the thing in the lake.
I jumped on the boat and skillfully raised the oar to hold it against the shore, ready to launch into the water.
"Let me help you." Heizi pushed the stern of the boat with both hands, pushing the boat directly into the deep water.
This scene made the people on the shore very nervous, and the three women even started to scold Heizi.
I smiled, stood up straight, and started paddling toward the center of the lake.
My eyes never left the surface of the lake. I had heard from my master a lot about the evil spirits in the water, but I couldn't figure out what they were in this lake.
Everyone on the shore stopped arguing when they saw me drifting away, and the surroundings suddenly became extremely quiet.
Seeing that we were not far from the island in the middle of the lake, the boat and I were still stable without any discovery.
But just when I was about to look in another direction, what I saw made me almost unsteady and fell into the water.
I quickly adjusted my steps to regain my balance, and the boat under my feet began to shake violently.
"Xiaotian..." Heizi's loud voice was as loud as a soul, and it almost scared me into the water again.
"It's okay." I frowned and sat down, turning my head to respond.
I breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the hull that had not yet stabilized. I was frightened and confused.
After I regained my composure, I stood up again and rowed back with the boat.
Before reaching the shore, everyone gathered around him, and Heizi waded directly into the water to pull the boat.
"What is it?" Heizi asked in a low voice, avoiding the frightened Lao Wang and Xiao Wang.
"Go back and tell me." I bit my lip.
Thinking back to the scene just now, the master did tell me about this kind of thing, but this kind of thing should not exist here.
"Uncle, are you okay?" When I got off the boat, Lao Wang and Xiao Wang came over to help me.
"It's okay, it's okay." I quickly responded with a smile. In fact, it was mainly because I looked at the three women who looked worried.
"Master Tian, what is in that lake?" Xiao Wang looked curious.
"You really don't remember anything?" I asked with a frown.
"I seemed to see a pair of eyes, and then I felt dizzy. I don't remember what happened next." Xiao Wang also frowned and tried to remember.
"It's okay, don't think about it. Let's go back first. Leave this thing to us, and you are responsible for not letting anyone get into the water again." I said and patted Xiao Wang on the shoulder.
"Okay, leave it to me." Xiao Wang nodded vigorously.
On the way back, everyone saw me closing my eyes and concentrating, and they tacitly agreed not to mention this matter. We talked about irrelevant topics along the way.
When I returned to the inn, the first thing I did was to wash my face. Xiao Wang’s memory was correct. It was indeed a pair of eyes, but they were a pair of eyes that shouldn’t appear here.
"There's something wrong with this thing. Do you remember what the ranger told us?" Everyone was sitting around, and I took the initiative to speak.
"It was said that five people drowned at the beginning, and the bodies were found, but nothing was found." Zhou Jiaonan still had a good memory.
"Do you know what it is?" Haitang saw my worry.
"Yes, I heard the master say it, but this thing shouldn't appear here..." I paused and began to recall the stories the master told me.
There are many strange things happening in the Yellow River, and there are quite a few every year.
It is said that in the early years, when the river was still crystal clear, people on the water were cautious every time they crossed the river.
Not because of anything else, just because of the corpse walking at the bottom of the river.
The walking corpses mentioned here are not the walking corpses on land, nor do they belong to the category of water ghosts.
It's this thing that looks like it's walking on the bottom of the river, leaving a series of footprints on the bottom of the river over the years.
As the saying goes, you can't look at this thing, otherwise you will get bad luck.
It is also said that if you look at this thing, it will confuse your mind and you will jump into the river and drown.
But this thing does not belong to reincarnation, nor is it qualified for reincarnation. The conditions for its formation are also very harsh, so there is no such thing as grasping and alternating.
The master didn't explain the specific cause to me at that time. Anyway, this thing is basically similar to a zombie in the water.
"The walking corpse at the bottom of the river, my father told stories about it when we were kids, but how could this thing appear here?" Haitang and Peony looked at each other and frowned at me.
"This is the problem that bothers me. Logically speaking, this thing shouldn't appear in this lake." I was also puzzled.
"It's a pity that we can't see the body, otherwise we might find some clues." Heizi also lit a cigarette impatiently.
"Call Uncle Wang." Zhou Jiaonan suddenly smiled and took out his mobile phone.
"Can Uncle King of the Earth Realm also take care of things?" Heizi and I asked almost in unison.
"I definitely can't control him, but he has colleagues, classmates from back then. You can always find one." Zhou Jiaonan explained with a smile.
"Yes, yes, then call Uncle Wang quickly." Heizi looked at Zhou Jiaonan with a smile.
"Of course the leader should handle this kind of thing." Zhou Jiaonan said and looked at me.
"That's right, we haven't called Uncle Wang these days since we came out." In fact, I know that Zhou Jiaonan is worried that she will be scolded if she calls.
I had to obediently take out my cell phone and call Uncle Wang.
The phone rang a few times before Uncle Wang answered it. Looking at the eyes of everyone in front of me, I became a little nervous.
"Wang...Uncle Wang..." I didn't expect that I would also stutter.
"Oh, do you still remember that I am Uncle Wang?" Uncle Wang smiled sadly on the other end of the phone.
"Uncle, we are here for training, not for fun..." I had no choice but to use Heizi's unique skills and use strong words to reason.
"Hmph, you kid, that's it. Tell us what happened." After all, Uncle Wang is a veteran, so he can't really care about me as a junior. The main point is because he loves us.
"Do you know about the Biyue Lake case?" I am no longer polite. Uncle Wang and we are basically a family.
"Biyue Lake? Why did you get there?" Uncle Wang was also surprised when he heard the word Biyue Lake.
"You know?" He knew that there was hope for this matter.
"The province also held a video conference. If you guys hadn't gone out to practice, I would have taken you to help deal with it." The meaning of Uncle Wang's words was obvious.
"You mean you are familiar with the person in charge of this case?" I laughed directly.
"My old classmate is here. There is something wrong in his jurisdiction. Of course I will help if I can. Tell me what we should do about this matter?" Uncle Wang got straight to the point.
"I want detailed information on the five bodies that fell into the water for the first time." I said and looked at Zhou Jiaonan.
After all, I didn’t understand the professional terminology, so I felt relieved when Zhou Jiaonan nodded.
