The family of three walked gingerly along the village path to the village chief's house.
After waking up the village chief and summoning several strong villagers, he regained his courage.
Already on the way to the fish pond, the village chief was still a little doubtful.
"Lao Liu, are you sure you read it correctly? Are you not dreaming?"
He knew the situation of the fish pond contracted by Lu Laoliu.
He helped with many things back then. Including the later purchase of fry and feed, etc., I also helped and advised...
The village chief also knew very well what kind of fish there were in the fish pond.
He was the first one not to believe that there could be things that can eat people!
Lu Laoliu looked bitter.
"My good village chief, do you think I'm lying? It's such a winter. When I ran back, I was covered in mud and woke up my wife and children who were sleeping soundly."
"And didn't we just stop by Zhao Zhiming's house to take a look? It's true that no one was inside. I saw him being eaten by evil things in the fish pond!"
The village chief looked at the miserable appearance of the unfortunate guy. He was covered in mud and couldn't even change his clothes - even the two shoes on his feet were different.
It seemed that he was too panicked when he ran back and lost one foot.
The village chief patted Lu Laoliu on the shoulder.
"I know that you are definitely not making such a big show as a prank. I am afraid that you are having a nightmare... Of course, it is unlikely. Anyway, it is coming, so let's go and have a look."
Soon, a group of people arrived at his fish pond.
At this time everything has returned to calm.
The water surface of the fish pond is calm and calm.
There is no Zhao Zhiming's body, and the horrific blood just now has also dissipated.
It was as if everything was really just a dream of Lu Laoliu.
What should I do now?
Everyone is looking at him...
He was a little embarrassed.
Finally it was the village chief who spoke.
"Ahem, let's all take a small wooden boat and go to the fish pond to salvage Zhao Zhiming's body."
The fish pond is large and the water is quite deep - two to three meters deep in most places, and even four or five meters deep in some places.
Lu Laoliu knew that with the rapid economic development in recent years, city people like to eat big fish!
So some parts of the fish pond were deliberately dug deep.
In this case, silver carp, carp and the like can grow large and live in those deep water areas.
Keep a little bit when fishing every year, and over time you can sell big fish!
He heard that not long ago, the big boss in Lianghe Town spent several thousand to buy a large carp weighing fifteen kilograms.
Because of this, Lu Laoliu also asked craftsmen in the village to help make a few simple wooden boats.
The quality isn't great, but it's barely passable.
After all, it’s just paddling in a fish pond, how good does it need to be?
At this time, the village chief suggested this, and the young adults summoned also agreed, and they were all ready to pull the boat into the water. Let Lu Laoliu point to the location of Zhao Zhiming's body.
But he shook his head vigorously and waved his hands, rejecting the village chief's proposal.
"No, no! It's too dangerous. If there really is something evil in the fish pond, if we go there by boat at this time, wouldn't we take the initiative to give it to that thing to eat?"
There were many people around at this time, and it had been quiet for a while. Lu Laoliu had gradually calmed down.
He said to everyone.
"Thank you, fellow villagers, for your help. I just thought about it carefully. No matter what happened, there is no need to figure it out so late at night. It's better to go back to sleep first and go to the village police station to report to the police tomorrow morning. Then we can Cooperate in recovering the body."
"Thank you for all the hard work of getting up and running around at night. It's my fault! When things are settled tomorrow, I, the sixth, will give each of you a grass carp weighing three or four kilograms, plus a pack of cigarettes."
Others had some complaints at first, but it turned out that Lu Laoliu was so sensible, and everyone felt better.
Just about to leave the fish pond.
Sudden!
A strange roaring sound sounded.
Very loud sound.
It was indeed like thunder, but a bit muffled.
It came from the fish pond!
Lu Laoliu looked back.
I saw the water surface shaking violently in the center of the fish pond. Circular ripples spread out in all directions, and the waves rippled on the cement wall of the weir pond...
It was like there was some strange giant thing lurking in the water of the fish pond.
The mood that had just calmed down suddenly became frightened again.
"That's the sound! It was the sound that woke me up just now, and then I saw Zhao Zhiming asking for help in the water."
Faced with such an evil scene, the village chief and other young adults also felt terrified.
At this time, some of the people who followed were less courageous and couldn't help shouting.
"Run!"
He turned around and ran towards the village.
People are like this. Once their courage is gone, no one dares to stay any longer. Everyone, including Lu Laoliu and the village chief, frantically fled the fish pond area.
…
After returning, Lu Laoliu couldn't sleep either.
At dawn, he and the village chief went to the village police station to report the crime.
Let the police come and take a look.
After all, someone is dead, so it definitely needs to be checked in this regard.
When the sun was right at noon, under the auspices of the people from the police station, everyone boldly rowed two small wooden boats together to the place where Zhao Zhiming died in the fish pond...
The nets were started to recover his body.
But a group of people fished for two or three hours, and the fish pond was covered with nets, but nothing was caught!
Of course, a lot of all kinds of fish were caught - silver carp, silver carp, grass carp, carp, crucian carp, tortoise and so on... The fish pond is really well maintained.
But Lu Laoliu saw with his own eyes that Zhao Zhiming was dragged to the bottom of the water by an unknown monster, and he seemed to disappear out of thin air... not even a body was left behind!
"You said someone died in the fish pond. Where is the body?"
The comrades from the rural police station asked him.
