Chapter 16 Fraud

I looked up at Chen Mingyu: "How do you know that the water god is underneath?"

I also reacted after asking. According to the legend, Jianmu was supposed to connect heaven and earth, but there was nothing like it on Fuxian Lake, and perhaps Jianmu had sunk to the bottom of the lake along with the ancient city.

Chen Mingyu gave me another answer: "The water gods all crawled out of the ground, and the World Tree you said must be underground." ”

I said in a deep voice, "Do you know the origin of the water god?"

Chen Mingyu replied: "I followed the water gods once, and although I didn't find their lair, I think they should be underground near the water, not in Fuxian Lake. ”

"Oh?" I couldn't help but be stunned, Chen Mingyu's statement really surprised me. I always thought that the water gods were all under the Fuxian Lake, but I didn't expect them to have another lair.

Chen Mingyu didn't need me to ask again and continued: "Over the years, I have also been looking for the secret that can lift the curse of the water god. You come with me......"

Chen Mingyu stood up, picked up a bucket of half-cooked meat and shelled eggs from the kitchen, and then led us to the basement deep in the villa: "I also have a water god at home, and that is my son'......"

Chen Mingyu opened the iron door of the basement with his own hands, led us to an underground swimming pool with a steel bar guardrail, took out a steel clip from the iron bucket, and knocked on the bucket twice.

After a while, I saw a dark green shadow floating from the corner of the pool, swimming towards us with its legs like a frog.

That's the god of water, the most complete god of water I've seen so far. The other party has generally turned into a frog, especially the head, which has almost become triangular, the two eyes have moved to the sides of the face, and the few remaining strands of hair on the top of the head are sparsely draped in front of them.

When the other party swam to our feet, he stretched out two webbed paws from the water and hooked them on the railing of the pool, raised his head to look at Chen Mingyu.

Chen Mingyu's eyes unconsciously welled up with painful love: "Child, I've come to see you." Hungry, aren't you?"

Chen Mingyu picked up the piece of meat with a clip and stretched it to the water god's mouth, and the latter showed a pair of jagged teeth to bite the piece of meat and swallow it.

I kept staring intently at the water god eating, although he didn't wrap his tongue around the food like a frog, but he didn't chew either, he swallowed it whole like a frog, and there was even a layer of skin on his jaw that was stuffed with food.

Chen Mingyu said softly: "Eat slowly, you have to ......"

When Chen Mingyu picked up the piece of meat again, the water god's mouth suddenly poked out his tongue more than a foot long, wrapped around Chen Mingyu's wrist and dragged it down into the pool. Chen Mingyu's body leaned downward, and the whole person almost fell on the iron fence of the pool.

I hurriedly grabbed Chen Mingyu and pulled back desperately, and the water god in the pool also used four to pull the iron railing, and the whole person hung on the railing, and pulled Chen Mingyu's arm desperately with all his strength into the water.

In just an instant, Chen Mingyu's palm was strangled black and purple, and blood oozed from his wrist. Ye Xun on the side took out a dagger and aimed it at the tongue of the water god, but Chen Mingyu shouted hoarsely: "Don't, don't cut his tongue! Cut off my hand, cut off my hand......

After Ye Xun hesitated for a moment, he immediately squatted next to the pool, turned the dagger, pointed the tip of the knife at himself, and slammed it into the eye socket of the water god with the handle of the knife, and after two consecutive blows, the water god finally let go of his tongue and retreated into the water.

Chen Mingyu covered his bloody wrist and burst into tears: "He is my son." Not long after I came out of Fuxian Lake, the water god came to the door, and I couldn't save my wife, and even my son was scratched by the water god. Little by little, he began to become the god of water, and he used to know that he was close to me, but then he gradually didn't know me......"

Chen Mingyu suddenly knelt down to us: "I'm already this old, how long can I live? Once I'm gone, what will he do? Please save him, as long as you can save him, I will give you all the money......"

I picked up Chen Mingyu and said, "Let's do our best! There are some things that I need to arrange." You come with us. ”

"Please ...... here" Chen Mingyu stood up and walked to the iron gate in a few steps. I was about to follow when I heard two muffled voices coming from the pool. When I turned my head to look over, I saw the water god floating on the surface of the water with a piece of clothing, struggling and shouting something in his mouth, which sounded like he was shouting "Daddy".

Chen Mingyu shook his head and sighed: "The only thing that may be left in his memory is the black dress." I threw a piece of clothing into the water every once in a while to make him not forget me......"

Chen Mingyu burst into tears again as he spoke. I couldn't help but sigh and followed him out of the basement.

This time I didn't go back to the living room, but stood in the courtyard of the villa and observed for a while before saying, "Old Ma, can you find the other two heavy weapons?"

Chen Mingyu said tentatively: "Chen Hui's thing is really not in your hands?"

I said coldly, "If that thing is in my hand, will I be bitten by the water god?"

"That's right...... Chen Mingyu said curtly, "the other two heavy weapons are all in my hands." Of the three people who came out alive back then, two of them were already dead, and Lao Lu handed over the thing in his hand to me before he died. ”

After Chen Mingyu finished speaking, he hesitated and said, "Can I ask, what do you want that thing for?"

I said bluntly, "Bring the water god here." If I'm not mistaken, the god of water should be looking for these two heavy weapons as well. Am I right?"

"Yes. Chen Mingyu said, "The water gods will appear every three years or so, and they will definitely come to us." Lao Lu died at the hands of the water god three years ago. ”

When Chen Mingyu spoke, Ye Xun couldn't help but look at me. I understood what he meant, he wanted to say: the image of the ancient city on Fuxian Lake will only surface in about three years, if it is calculated in this way, every time the ancient city comes out of the water, the water god will follow.

There is definitely an inevitable connection between the ancient city and the god of water.

I said quietly, "We can't find the lair of the water god now, and the only way is for the water god to come to us." As long as we can catch the living water gods, it will not be difficult to find their lair. ”

"This ......" When Chen Mingyu was still hesitating, I had already spoken: "Don't worry, I have also been poisoned by the water god, and I am more anxious than you." I can't play with you with my life, can I?"

Chen Mingyu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, what do you want to do, I'll arrange it." ”

I pointed to the pool in front of the villa and said, "You put some insulation for me there, I'm going to sit in the middle of the pool, and bring me two antiques and put them on the table together, and the pool is connected to high-voltage electricity, and the water god is here, so you don't need me to teach you how to do it, right?"

Chen Mingyu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away, and I'll definitely get it done before the time." ”

Chen Mingyu went to arrange the manpower, and I sat on the edge of the pool and watched them build a shelf, commanding twice from time to time. At nearly ten o'clock, Chen Mingyu finally made an insulated wooden platform, and Ye Xun and I sat on the top of the platform. Chen Mingyu also asked people to move the two bronze trees to the platform.

When I flashed my flashlight to the bronze tree, I dipped my finger in the mineral water and wrote two words on the table: There is fraud.

Ye Xun whispered expressionlessly, "What do you mean?"

I pretended to be looking at antiques, and whispered to Ye Xun: "Chen Mingyu is fake, after a while, can you kick down the shelf and lead us to the pool." ”

I mean the direction near the courtyard wall of the villa. I just deliberately asked people to raise the platform a little higher, so that when the platform collapses, we can jump to the other side of the pool, as long as we land safely, it won't be long before we can climb over the wall and leave the villa.

Ye Xun roughly estimated the distance: "It should be no problem." How do you know that Chen Mingyu is cheating?"

"I don't have time to explain, you just listen to me. When you do it, you watch out the windows on the second floor, there are gunmen over there. I took my magnifying glass and pointed in the direction of the second floor of the villa. The gunman over there obviously didn't take me and Ye Xun seriously, but just hid his figure a little, and he naturally couldn't escape my eyes.

I didn't suspect Chen Mingyu at first, until I entered the villa and realized that something was wrong.

Chen Mingyu also hid at least 30 people in his villa, why did he only bring four people to find us?

Was he too confident in his men? Surely not. The more people with status in the rivers and lakes, the more they cherish their lives, and they really reach the level of being able to raise dozens of people to swagger through the market, and they will never go into battle in person with just a few subordinates.

Chen Mingyu's subordinates didn't leave the villa, it should be that the things in the villa are more important, and Chen Mingyu only needs to bring us back.

Chen Mingyu took me into the basement pool, and the performance seemed real, but it was extremely contrived. He knew that we didn't have to cut off his hand to save him, and he deliberately said that just to convince us that he needed to find the water god's lair all the more.

When we were about to leave the basement, the water god hugged a piece of clothing and shouted "Dad", although Chen Mingyu explained the past, but I saw a few tears in the dress, which were obviously traces of knife wounds. The owner of this villa should have been thrown into that pool by Chen Mingyu, and that person is the "father" of the water god.

Chen Mingyu didn't expect me to have such good eyesight, and I deliberately let him trap me in the swimming pool, so he dared to take out the two bronze trees, otherwise, I really couldn't fool the old fox.

I think some of Chen Mingyu's words should be true.

Whether I can get out or not depends on whether this bronze tree can attract the water god.
