Logically speaking, the need to carry out silt cleaning work means that the river is close to drying up, and the depth of the river water will not exceed one meter at most.
How could such a shallow river drown two people in succession?
It seems that there must be something strange in this black water river.
"and after?"
Bai Ze glanced at the peasant woman and continued to ask.
"Because people drowned one after another, the whole Mingjia Village was panicked, so the village chief called a famous Feng Shui master from a nearby city and asked him to help find out what went wrong."
The peasant woman said: "The Feng Shui master came to Mingjia Village. After looking around the Heishui River, he concluded that it was because the workers dug silt and destroyed the feng shui of the river, which made the river god angry, so the disaster befell Mingjia Village. .”
"The Feng Shui master told us that in order to appease the anger of the river god, we must sacrifice a young girl under the age of eighteen so that the entire village can escape misfortune..."
"Asshole!"
As soon as the peasant woman finished speaking, Bai Ze punched the table with an angry face.
"What age it is, and there are still people who want to appease the anger of the so-called river god by sacrificing human beings. It's simply ridiculous!"
"The so-called Feng Shui master you found is not only a liar, but also a bastard who cares about human life!"
"Where does the Feng Shui master live? Take us to see him!"
Seeing Bai Ze being so angry, the peasant woman shook her head in fear.
"Great Immortal, the person responsible for contacting the Feng Shui master has always been the village chief, and I didn't know either!"
"Take us to the village chief!"
Bai Ze didn't say much, he stood up and walked out of the room.
The peasant woman did not dare to say anything, and immediately took us to the home of the village head of Mingjia Village.
After knowing our identities, the village chief also looked frightened. He quickly said that the Feng Shui master was introduced by someone he had entrusted, and after collecting the deposit, he returned to the city.
As for his specific address, the village chief is not sure.
"Okay, Brother Bai, don't hold on to that Feng Shui gentleman. Let's solve the problems in the village first."
Seeing that Bai Ze was about to get angry again, I quickly pulled him and said in a deep voice.
"Village chief, where are the workers who clean up the sludge? Please take us there first."
After all, those dredging workers are working on the front line and have experienced many things personally. If you ask them to inquire about the situation, you will definitely get more valuable information.
"Okay, I'll take you there!"
The village chief did not hesitate, immediately put on a pair of clothes and took us to the outside of the village. After a while, we arrived at the Blackwater River.
This Blackwater River is located upstream of Mingjia Village. It is formed by the convergence of three tributaries, forming a large Y-shape.
After seeing the pattern of these three tributaries, I couldn't help but frown and secretly said something bad.
Rivers are inherently places with strong Yin energy. Where the three tributaries of the Blackwater River converge, the so-called Three Yin Gathering Evils are formed!
This Mingjia Village is located in the middle of three tributaries, surrounded by rivers on three sides and facing mountains to the north. The feng shui is extremely dangerous, and it is not difficult to understand that all kinds of strange things happen.
"That's where the dredging workers live."
At this moment, the village chief pointed to a row of tents by the river not far away and said to us.
It was already close to midnight, and the workers who had been working hard all day were already asleep. From a distance, I could hear the snoring coming from the tent one after another.
I also know something about the work of dredging workers. They have to wear thick leather jumpsuits and work hard under the scorching sun during the day, and the dredging work cannot be interrupted at will, so they work all day long, which is extremely hard.
"Go back first and bring us here early tomorrow morning."
I didn’t want to disturb the workers’ sleep, so I waved my hand and asked the village chief to take us away.
Bai Ze, Lonnie and others had no objection to this, so the village chief took us back to the village. After arranging our accommodation, we went to rest.
Early the next morning, we had something to eat and then, led by the village chief, we came to the Blackwater River again.
As soon as I walked over, I saw a group of workers gathering around, shouting loudly.
"Xiao Liu, Xiao Zhou, wake up, wake up!"
I stepped forward and pushed through the crowd, and saw a dark-faced man squatting on the ground, doing cardiopulmonary resuscitation urgently while calling their names loudly, with a hint of crying in his voice.
Two young men were lying on the ground, their faces were pale, their eyes were closed, and their clothes had already been soaked by the river water.
I stepped forward to sniff their breaths, shook my head and sighed.
The two young men had already lost their breath and looked like they had drowned.
"Why did someone die again?"
The village chief also walked over with a shocked face and asked the man: "Captain Liu, what on earth is going on?"
"Village Chief, we're afraid we won't be able to complete this project in your village, and we don't want the remaining payment. Please hire someone else!"
After Captain Liu finished speaking, he asked several workers to carry the two bodies into a truck parked nearby and planned to leave.
"wait!"
When the village chief saw this, he quickly stepped forward and grabbed him.
"So many people died for no apparent reason, and you just left like that?"
Captain Liu immediately became angry: "Why, do you still plan to let us be responsible for the strange things that happen in your village?"
"Oh, I didn't mean that, I..."
The village chief was so anxious that he couldn't even speak clearly.
"Captain Liu, you have worked in this sinister place for a long time, and your bodies have been contaminated with evil spirits. Even if you leave Mingjia Village, you cannot guarantee your safety. Why not help us find the root of the problem together, so that we can solve the evil spirits on you."
I stood up and said in a deep voice.
"Who are you?"
Only then did Captain Liu notice Baize and me, and he couldn't help but ask with some vigilance.
"Oh, they are the Great Immortal and Mr. Chuma from Wutang. They are here to help us solve the problem this time!"
The village chief quickly explained.
After listening to the village chief's introduction, Captain Liu was no longer as vigilant as before, but the doubt in his eyes was still not eliminated.
"Can you really solve the problems here?"
"Do not worry."
Bai Ze said: "If you dare to pretend to be a ghost and harm people's lives within the protection of our five halls, I will drive out all these evil spirits!"
After Captain Liu heard this, he completely put aside his doubts and said, "What do you want to know? Just tell me."
I pointed to the bodies on the ground and asked, "How did the two of them die? Please tell us about the situation first."
"well……"
Captain Liu glanced at the two corpses and sighed deeply, his face full of pain.
It turns out that their dredging team has a total of twelve people, and he is the captain of the entire team, managing all personnel and controlling the progress of the work.
