Alice secretly tugged at Ruoling's sleeve: "Why do I feel that the story it tells is so much like the plot of Yunshui Ballad, it shouldn't have been fooled by its mother, right?" ”

The story is indeed very similar, and Ruoling is more and more convinced that it has been deceived by a story made up. However, this kind of thing did happen a lot in the past, and since it believed in this story so much, it still had to go to its village to investigate the truth and falsity. If the story was fake, its obsession wouldn't be so strong, right?

If Ling stood up and put away Ni Ni, he set off for his hometown. After the car, I had to walk a short distance on the low-lying and uneven country road to reach this small village, and after this trip, Ruo Ling frowned and looked at his white 'colored' Martin boots that were stained with mud and sighed, how do you have to wash this.

It's a small village with fresh air, and according to Ni Ni, most of the young people in the village have gone to work in other places. Many of the villagers have also moved, so the population here is not large.

Most of the people left in the village should be the elderly and children, but here you can often see many young people with backpacks walking by, and there are many children shouting and selling the small protective cloth bags in their hands.

Ruo Ling walked to one of the backpack 'women' before she died, stretched out her hand to block her way, and asked softly, "Sister, can you ask about the matter?" Seeing that the 'girl' nodded in a friendly manner, Ruo Ling hurriedly asked, "Why are there so many outsiders in this village?" ”

The 'girl' pointed at Ruo Ling in astonishment: "You don't know that you are still here?" Are you the original villager here? ”

Ruoling scratched her head "embarrassed": "Yes, I haven't been back for a long time." ”

Seeing this, the 'girl' student smiled lightly and patted the shoulder of Ruo Ling, who was smiling very sweetly, and said happily: "It's a shame that you are still from the village, and the speed of knowing the information is not as fast as the people of our expedition." ”

Seeing that Ruoling was already embarrassed, the 'girl' coughed a few times and returned to the topic, "Actually, this matter dates back to last week, saying that a couple who are about to get married took a fancy to the location of the river in the village, and said that they wanted to fill it in and build a house as a residence for them to come back to live occasionally.

However, when the engineering team came here, there were many accidents, such as the machine moving itself and attacking the workers, or the contractors getting seriously ill or something that hindered the progress of the process. So until now, they haven't even touched a single grass by the river. It's really a rural area, and there is not even a little garbage near the river. ”

"It's so horrible." Ruo Ling took a few steps back, looking frightened, and her body began to tremble.

Seeing Ruo Ling's frightened look, the 'female' student smiled and patted Ruo Ling's shoulder and said heroically: "You are too bold, you are so cute, wahaha...... " After a while, the 'female' student also put on a scary appearance and said, "I heard that many people have drowned in this river, because the water ghost has been looking for a substitute." If the river is filled, it can't continue to look for a stand-in, so that's why it comes out to scare the engineering teams away. ”

Water ghosts looking for a stand-in? These are completely two versions of the story of waiting for their lover silently, who made the mistake? Now that the matter is clear, there is no need to continue asking.

So Ruoling screamed a few times in "horror" and ran in the direction of the village, leaving only the 'girl' who was still laughing wildly at Ruoling's back.

After a while, Ruoling finally ran to the interior of the village. It's full of children shouting and selling cloth bags and young backpackers buying cloth bags, if the spirit frowns, this place looks like a tourist holy place, but the people who are sightseeing have been replaced by people from the supernatural expedition.

Seeing Ruoling's frowning movements, Alice leaned in front of her and said, "Since these people came to the village because of supernatural rumors, it means that these supernatural events may really be real." However, the truth may not be that the water ghost is looking for a stand-in as they say, it may be that someone is using this matter to hype up and increase the income of the village. We can ask the people in the village, maybe there are people who know the truth. ”

"But if they really want to increase their income for hype, how can they tell the truth, who will push the money out of the 'door'?"

"Uh......" Alice was also embarrassed, and a child's shout caught her attention. Alice hurriedly pointed to Ruoling and pointed to the children who sold cloth bags, "The children in the countryside are very simple, you ask them to try." ”

Ruo Ling sighed: "They are all selling cloth bags, how can they tell the truth." Despite this, Ruoling walked up to one of the children who was shouting at his cloth bag, pointed to the cloth bag in front of him and asked, "Does this cloth bag have any effect?" ”

The child picked up a small cloth bag and waved it at Ruo Ling, and explained in non-standard Mandarin: "This is a talisman cloth bag that can help people avoid water ghosts." ”

Water ghosts again? Ruo Ling smiled lightly and bought a cloth bag, and 'touched' the child's hair and turned away. It was only at a corner that the cloth bag was untied, and the materials inside were 'revealed', which turned out to be some cinnabar and wormwood. This is not a cheating of money, at least it is something that belongs to the category of warding off evil spirits

Alice floated to the side angrily: "That kid didn't lie, and it's even more difficult to determine whether this matter is true or false." ”

Ruo Ling 'touched' his chin with his right hand and thought for a moment before saying, "Children, many things are told to them by adults, and they don't know the truth. Since Ni Ni knows this story, her peers like her and even older than her will know that story, so let's go ask these people. ”

Ruo Ling walked around the village for half a circle, and those uncles and aunts all refused to let go of the rumors that the water ghost was looking for a stand-in. Also, whether this rumor is true or not, it will not affect their lives, as long as it can increase their income.

Alice pursed her lips in frustration and pulled the grass on the ground anxiously: "Those people are lying, really, how can they talk about this panic for money." ”

Ruo Ling patted her head comfortingly: "Then don't ask, let's go to the river to see for ourselves, so that everything will fall into place." ”

"Alright then, those pesky guys will ignore them."

"Uh-huh, they're all nasty guys." Ruo Ling smiled and agreed.

After crossing the winding path, Ruo Ling and Dugu finally came to the small river in Ni Ni's memory. Here, the clear river is still 'wandering' with small fish in its hands, and there is really no filth along the river, as the 'girl' said.

At this time, there are a lot of construction machinery and workers wearing yellow 'colored' helmets parked by the river, and most importantly, there are many backpackers who are setting up cameras or 'fiddling' their own high-end cameras by the river.

And what attracted Ruoling's attention the most was the spirit of the old lady sitting on the bank of the river, she was looking at the river in a trance at this time, and she did not have the cold aura of the rumored at all, and she looked like an ordinary spirit.

Alice looked at it from afar for a moment before saying, "I can't tell how it died, but it's not wrong that it's an Earthbound Spirit." "Is it wrong? The old lady's age did not correspond to her appearance at all.

"Then do you think it's really a rumored water ghost looking for a stand-in?"

"There's not a trace of blood on it, and it hasn't harmed anyone."

"That's right." If the spirit ponders, then what is the truth of the matter? If the story Ni Ni said is true, then the 'female' protagonist in the story should also be a middle-aged 'woman' and 'female'. Instead of a sixty-something, rickety old lady, is it another version? Leave that alone, if it does do do take action against the construction workers, it will have to be arrested.

After a while, the workers with 'exposed' faces and 'color' finally slowly 'operated' the digging machine under the command of the contractor foreman. With the sound of the excavator's "Kara", all the expedition team members held their breath and pointed the shooting equipment in their hands in the direction of the machine.

Ruo Ling only heard a small sound of "jingle bells" in the crowd, and then the old lady sitting quietly by the river suddenly showed a 'yin' look on her face, her eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake, and her body was suddenly resentful.

I saw the old lady turn her palm into a claw in the direction of the excavator, and suddenly, the excavator suddenly changed direction and quickly attacked in the direction of the construction workers and the expedition members.

Suddenly, the crowd screamed and fled with their heads in their hands. The construction workers threw down their digging tools, and the expedition members fled in a panic with their cameras. The machinery by the river automatically turned on and ran around, and the only sound of the machine starting was left in the instantaneous noise of the riverside.

Ruo Ling took advantage of the crowd to flee, avoiding the 'chaotic' machinery and ran in the direction of the old lady. Just as she was stretching out her hand to put it in, a small bell rang out, and the old lady suddenly disappeared into the air, without a trace.

Dugu followed the prestige, and the voice came from the crowd. It was impossible to tell who was shaking the bell, but there was no doubt that there was a strange aura in the bell.

Seeing that the old lady had fled into another dimension, Ruo Ling shook her head in frustration and walked towards Dugu Yan, and all kinds of machinery industries stopped running in place with the disappearance of the old lady.

Since the old lady broke out because of the sound of the bell, then these supernatural events are considered ''. And the fact that it happened so coincidentally seemed to be an attempt to enhance the true 'nature' of the supernatural event, and it did not affect human life. If you think about it this way, the people in this village who are the mastermind are much more likely to be 'sexual'. Now the old lady could not reappear so soon, so Ruoling asked Alice to hire a few spirits to continue waiting by the river, and if the old lady appeared to inform herself, she would leave the river. And along the way, Ruo Ling's ears kept hearing the ecstatic public opinion of the expedition team and the sound of children selling talisman bags, and his brows furrowed even deeper. Although the person who rang the bell did not endanger his life, he kept stabbing and 'stimulating' an ordinary spirit to become a resentful spirit. If it takes a long time for the spirit to become a real wraith, what will this warlock do with it?
