The water under the stone bridge was a little deep, but it wasn't much of a deal to me.

Swimming to the opposite shore, I did not dare to delay for a moment, and dragged the woman from the water to the shore.

It's just that when my hand touched her cold body, I immediately had a bad premonition in my heart.

The body is cold, the limbs are stiff, and the skin is not elastic or sexual.

She...... There are no signs of life anymore.

And, this situation ...... I'm afraid I've been dead for quite some time.

On top of that, the woman was unclothed, her hands and feet were tied with a hemp rope, twisted behind her back, and she took on an incredible pose.

Obviously, this woman did not drown normally, nor did she commit suicide, because she could not have tied herself up like this.

The scene in front of me was a bit terrifying, even if I had experienced a big scene, I couldn't help but feel a chill down my spine, and my whole body was upside down.

Taking a deep breath and calming my mind a bit, I bent down and flipped the woman's body over so that it was on its back.

When I saw her face clearly, I couldn't help but be shocked again.

She looked very young, in her early twenties, with long and smooth hair, but her features were distorted and not human, revealing a hideous, fearful expression, and her mouth was gagged with strips of cloth.

Her eyes were round, and her pupils had long since dilated, but the hideous resentment was so obvious.

She was too young, and judging by her expression, she must have experienced great fear when she was dying.

I looked around and found many strips of rags torn from the woman's body in the reeds by the river.

When I saw this scene, I knew what I was going to know.

Don't think about it, she must have been killed by the wicked, killing people and throwing her body here.

The female corpse was disheveled, and I shouldn't have looked closely, but when I glanced at it, I found that there was something on her body that was absorbed, and there were not a few of them.

Only upon closer inspection did he realize that the things that were attached to his body were actually thumb-thick water snails.

Its arms, neck, and thighs are all adsorbed by water snails, and the number of dense ones is unknown.

Originally, it was not surprising that there were water snails in the river, but it was strange that these water snails actually climbed onto the body of the female corpse.

The hemp rope that tied the woman's corpse had red spots of paint, and this rope should have been placed under the stone bridge with the coffin, and the red paint stained on it should be the paint of the coffin.

Seeing this, I can't help but think of the scene of encountering a camel on the stone bridge last evening.

The camel said that he was going to pick up his daughter from college, but in the end he didn't take it back, so the two of them had a big quarrel late last night......

Could it be ...... The female corpse in front of you is the camel's daughter?

It's not that she didn't come back last night, but when she came back, she was killed?

Who exactly is the murderer? is so inhumane, using such a tragic means to deal with a weak woman.

Just when I was guessing and my heart was shocked, I suddenly heard footsteps from the stone bridge.

I was startled, and immediately came back to my senses and looked up at the stone bridge.

I saw that the camel was standing on the bridge at some point, and was leaning forward with his hands on the railing, his eyes slightly closed, staring straight at me.

He just looked at me like that, his eyes were cloudy, and his expression was a little distorted.

"The ......"

Seeing the terrible eyes of the camel, I felt a sense of fear in my heart for no reason, and I opened my mouth to explain, but unexpectedly, the camel shrank back.

Then I heard him shout hoarsely, "Come on! Kill! ”

"My daughter was killed, come on!"

……

I heard him screaming, and I was stunned at first, until I heard a burst of shouting, and I suddenly came back to my senses.

"Oops, this misunderstanding is a big one!"

For psychological reasons, my first thought was to run away, and my body was already moving.

Jumping into the water, scrambling to the opposite shore, climbing ashore like madness, and running wildly.

Actually, I shouldn't have run away, because this woman wasn't my fault at all. But the human psyche is so strange, and in a panicked situation, I made a wrong choice.

And this wrong choice almost cost him his life.

There was a lot of movement behind me, and when I hurriedly glanced back, I saw countless villagers chasing me at the end of the stone bridge, holding sticks, firewood knives or pots, shouting and beating.

Faced with such a scene, my heart became even more flustered, and my speed increased.

However, to my surprise, at the moment when I turned my head to look back, a man suddenly and silently blocked my way.

This man was a camel, and he had a wooden stick the thickness of his arm in his hand, and he was hideous, and he did not hesitate to smash it down on my head.

He appeared so suddenly that I didn't even have time to react before I felt a pain in my forehead, as if my bones had been shattered, and then a strong feeling of dizziness swept through my mind.

Eventually, the world swirled, and I closed my eyes and lost consciousness completely.

In fact, with my physical fitness, it is still a little difficult for ordinary people to knock themselves out, but the other party is a strong guy, and his strength is much greater than that of ordinary people.

……

I don't know how long I was unconscious, but my consciousness gradually woke up, and before I opened my eyes, I felt bursts of bursting pain in my forehead, and my ears were buzzing, very heavy.

The camel's stick and son hurt me too much, and although I woke up, my consciousness was still a little blurry.

It wasn't until several minutes later that I could barely open my eyes.

My eyes were heavy, as if they were sticky with something, and they were probably blood from my forehead.

When I opened my eyes, I was greeted by clusters of torches, surrounded by many people, whose faces I could not see clearly, because the brain was so damaged that everything I saw was ghosted.

They pointed at me and hurled insults, some beat me with sticks, some spit, some threw stones......

And I myself was tied with a rope to a stake, and there was a coffin next to it, and the coffin was not covered, and it was visible that there was a female corpse lying inside.

Next to the coffin, an elderly couple was crying sadly, although they couldn't see clearly, the man's figure was too easy to recognize.

They were the camel couple, and inside the coffin was probably the female corpse I saw under the stone bridge earlier.

I guessed right, the woman who was killed under the bridge was the daughter of the camel.

In the previous battle, they obviously thought I was a murderer.

The brain damage made me think less and I couldn't even speak, and I couldn't even hear the scolding around me.

The sky was black.

I was in a coma a few more times, and it lasted until late at night, when most of the crowd dispersed, but most of it remained where it was.

After that, I saw a group of people dressed in strange services walking around me and the coffin, and one of them looked like the second master.

Some of them were holding gongs and drums, others were holding flutes, and they were chanting inaudible scripture incantations, apparently overpowering the dead.

It's just that they give the dead an excess, so why should they include me?

In the face of all this, I could only watch, but there was nothing I could do, because I was so weak at the moment.

This ritual did not last as long as the funeral for Li Guofeng in Heavenly Mountain, and it ended in only two or three hours.

The sound of gongs and drums stopped, but the crying shook the sky.

With a mournful cry, I was untied from the wooden shelf and carried into the coffin.

This coffin is the same coffin that contained the female corpse before, but to my surprise is that the female corpse is not inside.

Just when I was wondering, my eyes suddenly darkened, and then I felt a weight on my body, and someone pressed on my body, to be exact, a female corpse.

In an instant, I immediately understood that I was burying the female corpse at the bottom.

Can...... How dare they?

Let's not say that they are not the murderers who really killed the female corpse, even if they are murderers, they have no right to do such a thing?

Now that it is a society ruled by law, they actually dare to bury the living, are they not afraid of the punishment of the law?

For a moment I was terrified, uneasy, anxious, and frightened......

But I still have ropes tied to my body at this time, and the space inside the coffin is cramped, and the cold female corpse is cushioned on it, so it is difficult to move at all.

Finally, the lid of the coffin was closed, and the moment the lid was closed, I faintly heard a voice saying that I should not worry, he would come to my rescue......

But I'm flustered and confused at this time, where can I hear clearly?

I only know that the one who said this seems to be the second master......

Creak! Creak......

Soon after, I felt that the coffin I was in was lifted up, and as it shook, the female corpse on my body became heavier and heavier.

Since I came out of the Heavenly Secret Realm, my courage has grown a lot, but at the moment I am not too afraid of this cold female corpse on my body, what I am afraid of is that those people will really bury themselves alive.

I really can't understand how these villagers dare to do such a ridiculous thing in a society with such a strict rule of law.

Not to mention that they didn't give me a chance to explain, even if I was really a murderer, I should call the police to deal with it?

At this moment, I really responded to that sentence, if people are unlucky, they will even stuff their teeth when they drink cold water......

In my apprehensive mood, the coffin was not carried very far, and then I heard a loud sound of water, and there were waves crashing on the coffin, drifting with the current.

After a few minutes, I realized that I and the female corpse had been thrown into the ambergris river by the villagers.

It is said that a person who dies outside the house is not allowed to enter the house.

In particular, people who have drowned can be buried by water, that is, the body is sunk to the bottom of the water along with the coffin. If the body of the drowned person cannot be found, the longevity wood should also be sunk to the bottom of the water to give the deceased a place to rest, and prevent the unjust soul from coming ashore to make trouble......

Of course, these are superstitious statements, but the rural people are not civilized, the level of education they accept is low, and the rules left by their ancestors have gradually formed customs, and many places have adhered to this illusory statement.

Although the Paradise Reservoir is guarded by mountain guards, there are still many people who have not listened to the advice over the years, and have drowned many people by swimming or catching fish in the reservoir, and I don't know how many coffins have sunk under the reservoir.

Later, in order to prevent such incidents from happening again, the old man made up a lie that there were water ghosts in the reservoir, and the rumors that the person who went into the water was found to be a substitute.

This is a white lie, and then there are really fewer people who dare to go to the reservoir, coupled with the Jiaojiao incident some time ago, many villagers have witnessed the power of the Jiaojiao, and few people dare to approach the forest reservoir.

Of course...... Maybe the old man wasn't telling a lie...... Water ghosts may really exist.

I guess that the villagers of Longyi Village should think that I killed the camel's daughter, and this woman must be angry because she was defiled and died at the bottom of the river.

In order to appease the souls of the dead, they asked me to lay the female corpse at the bottom and sink into the river for peace.

It's just that...... I'm not a murderer, if the female corpse really turns into a water ghost, she will definitely go ashore to harm people and find the murderer.

Even...... If I die because of this, I may become a water ghost......

I heard the second master say that people who become resentful souls after death cannot retain their memories before death, and some are only dominated by endless resentment, unless there is something particularly profound, such as the murderer who killed him......

Even if she is as strong as Jingmei, she has forgotten some things after her death, and only retains part of her memory......
