The body was carried away, Zhen Shuhan also left with the police, and Wu Xi sat on a chair and looked at the river. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's dawn, why don't you catch up on sleep?" Cui Minghan pulled a chair and sat down beside her.

"Who is Mother Liang, do you know her?"

"I haven't heard of it, it should be the workers of Mr. Zhen's family, the Zhen family has a large house, and it always needs more people to maintain it. What's wrong, do you think something is wrong again? Cui Minghan's voice trembled.

"I don't know, I just think the way that person died was a little strange, soaked in water, but the flesh and blood seemed to be sucked dry by something."

"What's the matter, vampires can't be, why do strange things happen everywhere you go?"

Wu Xi laughed dryly, "I also think that it may be my life." ”

Cui Minghan turned her chair around, "If you really can't put your mind at ease, I'll go and inquire for you to see how Liang's mother disappeared, but I think since you come out to travel, you should have a good time, and don't take some things that have nothing to do with you too seriously." ”

Wu Xi looked at him gratefully, he was right, what kind of life has he lived in the past half a year, she is even busier than the police, she is like a highly vigilant hound, smelling a little movement is like an arrow on the string, ready to act at any time. This kind of life makes her a little tired, and she really needs to relax her tense nerves and take a good vacation.

"You're right, I'm pushing myself too hard, I'll make up for some sleep, and you can rest for a while." She waved at him and walked in the direction of the hotel.

The river was black and shiny, like fine silk, and only the moon reflected an eerie smiling face on it. Liang's mother took a wooden basin and walked down the stairs, squatted by the river and began to wash clothes. There are a lot of things to do in the Zhen family these days, and she can only find time to wash her clothes at night, although every family now has running water, but she still maintains the habit passed down from generation to generation, and feels that the sweat and dirt on the clothes can be thoroughly cleaned by the river.

Liang's mother spread the undershirt on a polished stone next to it, sprinkled some soaphorn crumbs, folded the clothes, picked up a mallet and beat it repeatedly.

"Hmm," something flew over her head, Liang's mother touched her hair, and took a bite gently, it's really annoying, I don't know what's going on recently, there are more and more bats in the town, and at dusk, they fly against the surface of the river in twos and threes, and the triangular head and red eyes make people's hearts numb.

"Hmph," all of a sudden, Liang's mother stood up impatiently, and waved her mallet a few times in the air, ", come over again and be careful that I smash your head." "She is born strong, coupled with long-term manual labor, her arms are a few times thicker than ordinary people, and her tendons are bulging. Replaced by ordinary children, they were already frightened by her formation and fled in all directions, but the bats were not human after all, not only did they not stop, but they pounced on Liang's mother's face one after another.

Liang's mother brandished the mallet and scolded sentence by sentence, but her body gradually began to stand unsteadily, and suddenly, her feet were empty and she fell heavily into the river.

"Help." Liang's mother fluttered in the water, barely calling out the only cry for help. As long as she opened her mouth, a large amount of fishy river water would pour into her mouth, choking her so much that she couldn't open her mouth at all. Fortunately, there was a boat parked next to her, and Liang's mother threw herself on the boat with all her might, hugging the stern tightly with both hands. She gasped for air, ready to climb up from the stern.

"Gollum Purr." Foam suddenly appeared in the river next to her, and there were more and more bubbles, and the area became wider and wider, and Liang's mother was stunned and forgot her situation. A gray pointed head emerged from the center of the bubble, and the small scarlet eyes tightly locked on Liang's mother's white and blue face.

It opened its large mouth behind its ears, revealing a row of white teeth, and let out a piercing chirp. This scream exhausted all the strength of Liang's mother, and she let go of her hand and fell back into the river, and the monster also plunged into the river and followed its prey away.

The surface of the river was quiet again, as if nothing had happened, except for a few tiny bats skimming against the water, with a hint of shallow ripples.

Wu Xi turned on the lamp at the head of the bed, she slept very unsteadily, she always felt that someone was crying in her ear in her dreams, she knew that it was the corpse in the water, she was drenched, sitting at the head of her bed, babbling to tell her something, but the already chaotic dream, coupled with the full dialect, Wu Xi couldn't understand what she said at all.

She simply got up, went to the bathroom and slapped cold water on her face, wanting to use this coolness to extinguish the anxiety and anxiety in her heart. Her phone screen lit up, and Wu Xi picked it up, "Is everything going well?" The text message was sent by Xu Xing, she was a lot of joy when she saw this, Xu Xing hadn't been home for a week, although he told her not to worry, but how could she not be worried? Every day, she worries about whether something will happen to him, whether there is a place to rest, and whether the food will be good. So even if it's just a short message, it can make her feel happy.

"It's a beautiful view, I had a lot of fun, you have to take care of yourself." She didn't want him to worry about himself anymore, so she hid the situation.

After cleaning up, Wu Xi went out alone, today's weather is no longer as bright as yesterday, the whole sky is gloomy, and there is a scene of mountain rain coming. She regretted a little that she didn't bring an umbrella with her, but she didn't bother to go back to the hotel again, so she simply walked out regardless of it, thinking that if it rained, she would buy an umbrella on the street.

The weather lived up to her expectations, and just as Wu Xi walked across an arched bridge, the raindrops the size of soybeans finally fell, that is, her hair was wet in a few seconds, and she hurriedly hid in a nearby antique shop, standing under the eaves of the porch and watching the tourists outside who were as embarrassed as her.

A light woman covered her hair with a handbag and ran in quickly, wiping the rain from her body, and then looking thoughtfully at the rain curtain outside. She was very good-looking, her hands were like soft wattles, her skin was like congealed cream, and her long curly hair spread out on her thin shoulders, shining with a healthy sheen. Wu Xi stared at her side face for a long time, and finally remembered why she was familiar.

"Are you...... Mr. Zhen's daughter-in-law, right? ”
