After the meeting, Hadron pulled me to a place with fewer people, and whispered to me that, judging from the results of their preliminary research, this should not be a human doing, but more like a paranormal event.

In addition to the black hair found at the scene to be returned to the county industry and safety department for testing, because the Yunmengwan reservoir is too large and now it is in the ice period, it is unrealistic to pump water or send divers on a large scale to search for it.

So this case will be submitted upwards and the relevant departments in the city or even the province will send people to investigate.

I agree with the results of their analysis, but I am skeptical about how powerful the mysterious authorities are.

Hadron asked me, do you know what is in the water? I'll tell you the truth, I don't know yet, and I need to think about it. Hadron told me to go to the reservoir less recently, and I can contact him at any time if there is any situation.

I nodded and patted him on the shoulder: "If there is a problem, find the positive or negative, I understand!" ”

He laughed and punched me again.

A cordon was quickly set up and warning signs were erected at the edge of the Yunmeng Bay Reservoir.

The bespectacled Gong'an spiritual guide gathered the whole village and talked endlessly for almost an hour, but the core meaning can be summed up in one sentence: stay away from the reservoir and pay attention to safety.

Qiangzi asked me and the fat man if they wanted to follow their car back to the county, I waved my hand and said that you are busy with yours, don't worry about this for a while, our brothers will have time to catch up in the future.

Watching the ambulance and police car disappear into the distance, I was a little lost, and I didn't know what the monster was underwater. Just as I was out of my mind, a big bird fell from the sky and landed firmly on my shoulder.

This fat guy hasn't seen him for a few days, and he's still fat like a ball with a lewd face. It seemed to know what was going on in my mind, and deliberately made a noise: "What's the matter, fourth, was it boiled?" ”

My heart lit up, the fat bird is well-informed, and has been staying in the village, will it know the origin of the monster in the water?

"Quack quack...... Of course I know......

The fat bird laughed proudly: "This thing is a shark, and in ancient times they were called the East China Sea sharks!" ”

Sharks? I stared at the fat man with big eyes and a confused expression.

Fat Bird explained that it happened to be napping by the lake at the time of the crime, so it had a clear look. The guy who dragged the water into the water is not an adult merman, but its juvenile form, commonly called: water lion, also known as fallen corpse or water monkey.

This statement reminded me of the Japanese kappa that often appears in anime and manga for the first time, and I don't know if it's the same thing.

Fat Bird said that the shark and the water monkey are by no means individual products, nor are they monsters, but a primitive group that has existed for tens of thousands of years and has a longer history than humans.

They are creatures that exist wherever there is water, from the ocean to lakes and reservoirs, and they like to eat drowning carrion, especially the seven spirits.

The classification is also more complicated, belonging to the combination of primitive animals and demons, quite treacherous animals and genetically modified.

I was shocked by the fat bird's statement. That's because when I was at the village chief's house, I once lifted the quilt on Taotao's body while people were not paying attention. I saw that there was a faint faint blue light on the ankles of this little guy's feet, like the outline of a pair of human hands.

Ordinary people can't see it, but I can rely on the open ground eye to see through, this faint blue light is bold. In other words, this underwater thing is a spirit demon that has been contaminated with the Seven Spirits!

Although the mermaids are an ethnic group, they live alone and rarely act in groups.

It is recorded in ancient books that "it has been made in a hundred years, and its nature is silver and good; The pregnant egg beads are born in stagnant water, and come out in ten years, and are called water lions, and enter the sea at fifty; The fat of the shark is condensed and burning. ”

That is to say, it takes a hundred years for this thing to grow, and it is born to be afraid of crackling, so it lays its eggs in fresh water and gesters for ten years before it becomes a young shark, that is, the water monkey that catches Taotao, and it will only enter the sea after more than 50 years in fresh water.

It is also said that this kind of mermaid can be boiled into oil, which can never be extinguished, and it is the best material for making ever-bright lanterns, which can be seen in large ancient tombs in general, and the price is expensive and difficult to find.

As for the accounts of various gods and monsters that I found on the Internet later, such as "Sou Shen Ji" and "Shu Wei Ji":

"Jiaoren is the spring first, also known as the spring guest. The South China Sea out of Jiao silk yarn, the spring first dive weaving, a dragon yarn, its price of more than 100 gold. I thought it was not wet when I entered the water. There is a dragon silk palace in the South China Sea, where the spring weaves silk first, and there is a white one like frost. ”

Another example is "there are mermaids in the South China Sea, and the water dwells like fish, and their eyes can cry beads." These must have been deduced in some way, and the fat bird sneered at this, scolding the author, saying that it was simply a mistake.

The water monkey resembles a child's appearance, with claws on its limbs, webbed fingers, thick black fur all over its body, and a mouse-like call.

Strangely, there are three steel doors on its butt bones, and when in the water, it relies on two of them as the exhaust pipes of the engine to drive the jet to enhance the swimming speed, which sounds more like fart power, which is a bit disgusting.

After the water monkey enters the sea and becomes a shark, the shape will also undergo great changes, first of all, the black hair on the whole body will fade, the legs will become fishtail-shaped, and the upper body will be no different from a human.

It feeds on the sea to confuse the seafarers on the passing ships, and when he has free time, he continues to wander around looking for his own kind.

They are amphibious, hermaphroditic, powerful in the water and weak when landed, but they can move much faster than humans.

Although they live alone, they can be connected to each other through a special kind of sound waves, and they are very vindictive, and they belong to the species that must be revenged.

The fat bird also said that this water monkey should not see its infinite strength in the water, but it is very afraid of bird droppings, cinnabar water, and red cloth, and as long as it manages to drag this thing ashore and cover it with a red cloth, it will tremble all over its body, and it will be caught.

People like Taotao who are frightened by water monkeys are often filmed by Qiqi, and even if they wake up, they will become stupid and muddy. If you want to cure it, you only need to take a drop of water monkey's blood spot at the center of your eyebrows, and you will be awake.

But the time should not be delayed for too long, it is best to do it within three days, in case the captured Seven Spirits are damaged.

I was puzzled, and asked Fat Bird, you understand so well, why didn't you come to the rescue at that time?

The fat bird scolded, saying that his cultivation was sealed, and he had a fart to shoot, and he was roasted into a roast chicken in minutes! Besides, it's a bird, not a fish, can your bird dive? Osprey?!

After figuring out what this underwater monster was, I came to the spirit, and after holding the stinky feet of the fat bird for a while, the three of them studied it carefully that night and made a careful plan.

Early the next morning, I went to Li Shengli's house first, and saw that Taotao had woken up, and sure enough, as the fat bird said, I couldn't recognize people, and I was a little stupid. The village chief and Victory were shedding tears around the little one.

I asked them not to panic first, and then told Li Shengli about the water monkey in general.

Shengli is an honest man, how can he know this, and he sincerely asked me what to do so that his son can get better.

I told him that although the blood of this thing can make Taotao sober, it has come to this point, and it is not a way to cure the symptoms but not the root cause. Now that I know the details of this thing, I have to think of a strategy to catch it.
