Chapter 7 The custom of pressing the foot of the bed

"Crunch......" Lu Ye heard the sound of the door being opened in the back of his head.

A ray of light shot in, and with the light, there was a long shadow covering Lu Ye, with the help of the light, Lu Ye's squinted eyes opened slightly, and looked to the side, in addition to his water tank, there were other rows of water tanks here, but those water tanks were extremely calm.

Deathly calm.

The sharp-eyed Lu Ye even saw that in the water tank on the left, there were some thin filaments slowly shaking.

Before Lu could take a closer look, the door was closed again, and the light disappeared again.

"Are you here?" Lu Ye said indifferently, and the previous salted fish posture was also swept away, and then sighed heavily: "You shouldn't have come!"

"Hehehe, it's funny, do you feel no fear at all, or are you crazy in extreme fear. The voice was muffled, as if something was wrapping around his mouth.

"You should pick it up—I'm already here. Lu Ye said disappointedly: "It's really boring, no one can pick up a stalk." ”

The man was not angry, his footsteps slowly came to the back of Lu Ye's head, a pair of rough hands pressed on the back of Lu Ye's head, sensing Lu Ye's struggle, and said enviously: "It's really a jealous young body, but soon, I will have it too." ”

A needle was pierced into Lu Ye's neck, and the cold potion was injected into it.

"Whether you are really crazy or fake crazy, let me die!" The man finished injecting the potion, and suddenly pressed Lu Ye's head into the water tank, the force was not great, but at the same time, there was a buzzing sound in the man's mouth, and the water in the water tank stirred again, pulling Lu Ye's body.

The space inside the water tank also seemed to increase in an instant, and no matter how hard Lu struggled, he couldn't touch the edge of the water tank.

"That humming sound is the key, and it is through this sound that the other party controls the flow of water......" Although Lu Ye is constantly rising and falling in the water, the core of his soul is exceptionally sober.

Maybe it's because he knows that he is just a mirror doppelganger now, and death is just a mirror fragment, or maybe dying once has changed him, even at this time, he can still analyze it calmly.

Lu, who had choked a lot of water, suddenly gave up resistance, and took the initiative to dive underwater with the force of pulling down the water, trying to raise his head to look at the water, and the deterrent ability of the soul-like body was activated.

The humming sound stagnated, and the current pulling Lu Ye seemed to be out of control, so that Lu also had room to move, reached into his pocket, and took out the dagger that had been possessed.

The dagger in his hand waved indiscriminately, cutting off the flow of water, and Lu also remembered the rows of water tanks in the basement, which did not go upstream, but continued to go down.

When Lu Ye was caught by the current before, he clearly remembered that the muddy water pulled him all the way down, and did not rise, but soon he appeared in the water tank in the basement.

Maybe when that murky water appears, the tank is more than just a tank.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lu to see a bright light in front of him.

Lu Ye, who jumped out, grabbed the frame of the water tank, and quickly jumped out of the water tank, and saw that the water tank quickly became turbid, and the turbid water came out of the water tank.

The muffled voice also came from inside: "You can't escape, stranger, we will see you again soon...... What are you doing, you wait for me!"

An orange and yellow stream, drawing a beautiful parabola, accurately fell into the water tank, and Lu Ye, who was standing on the stone in the distance and finished his work, trembled twice and admired himself: "The majesty has not diminished back then!"

The turbid water quickly disappeared, and the water tank once again became an ordinary water tank, and Lu also pulled the zipper and began to look at the surrounding environment.

The sparse fence, the vegetables that had grown old, and the muddy field covered with dry chicken droppings, it was obvious that he had come to the backyard of the village and had not returned to the muddy spring temple.

"As long as there is a water tank or even a place where there is water, it can be passed, and the other party's vision is not good, and after I leave the water tank for a distance, I can't notice my movements. Lu Ye looked at the water tank in the backyard, remembered what happened before, and recorded the information revealed inside.

The anomaly of this muddy spring village is really related to water.

It's just clear that this anomaly is not just an accident that caused the mythical creature to wake up, but that it has a behind-the-scenes existence that controls this anomalous event.

These are two completely different difficulty events, if it's just the awakening of mythical creatures, then the other party doesn't care much about the human beings who are as small as food, and the other party is either in semi-awakening or semi-unsealed, which is not so harmful to the investigator.

On the contrary, he is also the mastermind behind the human race, and he will secretly watch the actions of the investigators, and if he calculates unintentionally, he may be able to trap the investigator team to death.

"It seems that we need to find an opportunity to remind Zhai Di of them. Lu Ye touched his neck, and the man shot something into his body, but Lu Ye didn't feel any discomfort until now, and he didn't know what the effect was.

Squinted his eyes and did a quick search of the house.

Empty house, no clues.

Come to think of it, the mastermind behind the scenes will not leave their identity information everywhere.

However, it was another discovery that made Lu also raise his eyebrows.

In the master bedroom of this family, Lu also found a small wooden box made of wood at the foot of the bed.

When I opened the wooden box, it was not surprising that there was also a strand of hair and a piece of yellow paper with someone's name written on it.

Holding this yellow paper with the name of Li Yu written on it, Lu also rummaged through the house again, and finally found the household registration book of this family in a cabinet.

Li Yu is the son of this family of three.

This discovery made Lu also have some ideas.

Pushing open the door and walking out, I found that it was on a remote path in a mountain village.

Lu Ye casually found an empty house, went straight to the master bedroom, and soon found a small wooden box in his hand, which was also filled with tiny hair and yellow paper.

The name on the yellow paper is the daughter of this family.

"Is it custom?" Lu Ye nodded, this mountain village seems to have a custom of putting the fetal hair of his descendants, along with the name written on yellow paper, in a small wooden box made of a section at the foot of the bed, and pressing it at the foot of the bed.

Similar customs are also found elsewhere, such as New Year's money, which mostly means to protect the healthy growth of future generations and not die young.

If I am not mistaken, Zhang Chengxu specially asked the old village chief for the information of the temple blessing, the surname of the temple is Liu, and he is one of the few people in Niquan Village who does not have the surname Li, and he is an old bachelor and has no children, so he was selected to become the temple blessing.

So under the bed of the Niquan Temple, who is Liu Yu in the small wooden box?

Is the black shadow that flashed inside one day Liu Miaozhu, and is he the mastermind behind the scenes?

Lu also took a shortcut through the grove with questions, and finally found a house with cooking smoke.

knocked on the knocker, Lu could also hear the sound inside, and everything fell into silence for a moment.

Until a small cough sounded.
