After eating, Uncle Ji took us to the room prepared for us.

I finally understood that when I was researching bamboo slips in the Jiang family's office, Old Man Xiao had made a mysterious phone call, and it seemed that the call was made to Uncle Ji.

"Girl, come and rest in my room!" Aunt Ji said to Jiang Yimeng with a smile.

"The room is too small and there are few rooms. Let's just take a look! Uncle Ji echoed with a smiling face.

"It's okay, just have a place for me to rest. Aunt Ji, take me to the room to rest! Jiang Yimeng smiled.

"Let's go! That's my room, and the conditions may be a bit poor, but don't be too restricted, just make this your home! Aunt Ji took Jiang Yimeng to the small room that was simply decorated and furnished, and there was a small single bed inside.

"Can this bed sleep two people?" Jiang Yimeng looked at Aunt Ji curiously.

"It's good if you sleep here, I'll sleep in the same room with your Uncle Ji!" Aunt Ji blushed and smiled.

After Uncle Ji took us to the room, he asked us to rest early. Then he said that he had to deal with some tricky things in the afternoon.

"What's the matter? Want to help? Old man Xiao said to Uncle Ji seriously.

"Oh! It's nothing, something strange has happened in the village recently, and I'm looking for it! Uncle Ji waved his hand: "I can do it alone, don't worry." ”

"Oh! What's the strange thing? I was whetted by Uncle Ji's words, and hurriedly asked.

"Alright! I'll tell you about it. Here's the thing, a lot of poultry have been missing in the village lately, and their carcasses will appear in the weeds near the water, but their blood seems to have been sucked dry by something. Uncle Ji sat next to Old Man Xiao and looked at me and said seriously.

"The blood is all drained? Corpses at the water's edge again? Isn't it a monster in the water? I asked, curious, and handed over a cigarette.

Uncle Ji waved his hand: "Thank you!" I've quit smoking. But I don't know what bloodsucking things are, so I'm looking them up! ”

"Is it possible that a vampire?" As soon as I heard the blood being sucked dry, three words immediately came to mind.

"Probably not, after all, vampires can't hide in the water." Uncle Ji shook his head.

"It would have been nice if they had just sucked the blood of some poultry animals, but now they're starting to do it to humans. Several swimming children were dragged into the water, and when they were found, their bodies were the same as those of the poultry, their bodies covered in blood and covered with wounds. Uncle Ji looked worriedly at the vast water outside the window.

"Already done to humans? It seems that this thing has already done some Taoism, but it must not be kept, otherwise I don't know how many people will be killed. Because human blood can make those bloodthirsty things addictive, besides, human blood is rich in aura. It may be a shortcut to their cultivation. With that, I lit the cigarette in my mouth and took a big puff.

"That's right! As long as it is stained with human blood, it must not remain in this world. I think we'd better go together! It is also easy to find some clues with a little more people, after all, the scope of a person's search is only that large. Let's go together! Let's go!" Old man Xiao patted Uncle Ji on the shoulder.

"Don't rush first, it's night. Because it generally acts at night and does not dare to come out during the day, it just hides under the water. Let's go back in the evening! Uncle Ji looked at Old Man Xiao and said.

"It's okay at night! Then let's go together! I nodded.

"Where are you going? I'm going too. Jiang Yimeng's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Dream dreams! Are you eavesdropping on our conversation? Old man Xiao shouted out the door.

"I didn't mean to! I was just passing by on my way to the toilet and I heard you guys talking about what to do. That's why I want to go with you! Jiang Yimeng hurriedly explained.

"Oh well! Let's go together! You better go and get some rest! Otherwise, you'll doze off at night! Rest assured! I'll call you again when you get out. "I told her to go back to her room and rest first, and then call her at night when she moves.

"Good! Then I'll go back and rest first, you must call me! Don't lie to me! Jiang Yimeng's voice became farther and farther away.

"When have I ever lied to you! Rest assured! I'm going to call you. I shouted, wondering if she had heard me.

After Uncle Ji let us continue to rest, he got up and left the room. Old man Xiao smiled at me: "The blood-sucking thing this time is likely to be the monster under the water, let's go and see it together at night!" However, you try to look at the back and learn more. Let's see how the Yin River Spirit Officer deals with monsters. Well, let's take a good rest and recharge your batteries! ”

"Hmmm! Rest assured! I'll definitely learn by heart. I nodded.

Old man Xiao's head tilted, and the snoring gradually sounded. This old man fell asleep when he said he would sleep.

Maybe I'm not used to sleeping in a strange place, so it's hard to fall asleep tossing and turning in bed, and I'm full of curiosity about the profession of Yinhe Spirit Officer, so I can't sleep even more. So I took out my mobile phone, put on headphones, and listened to the song.

Soon, I slowly fell asleep, and the singing in the headphones was still ringing.

The sound of a knock on the door woke me up from my dream. "Old Xiao! Brat. Are you awake? It's time to eat! Uncle Ji's voice sounded outside the door.

"Okay, we'll be right here." I shook Old Man Xiao vigorously while agreeing: "Old Xiao! Don't sleep, it's time to eat. ”

"Oh! It's time to eat! I slept so well and comfortably! Old man Xiao rubbed his hazy sleepy eyes and smiled.

"You two big lazy worms, you can't get up yet! Do you want me to bring the food to you? Jiang Yimeng's voice came, I didn't expect her to get up so early. After a long journey, didn't she feel sleepy or tired?

Also, after all, she is a person who practices martial arts all year round, and she must be very energetic.

I pushed open the door and followed Uncle Ji to the kitchen, where there was a large pot of sauerkraut fish on the table, and a few baskets next to it were put with bean sprouts, bean curd and green vegetables.

"You're up? I wanted you to rest a little more! The old man said you should go with him in the evening to check the blood-sucking thing, so I stewed the fish early. Hurry up and try it! By the way, what about Lao Xiao?" Aunt Ji said while putting dishes and chopsticks on the table, and suddenly found that Old Man Xiao didn't come over, so she looked at me curiously and asked.

"Oh! Oh he! The lazy man has a lot of and urine, and he is now squatting in the toilet! Let's not wait for him. "I picked up my chopsticks and prepared to pick up the dishes.

"Smack" Jiang Yimeng slapped the back of my hand hard, and my hand twitched in pain, and the chopsticks in my hand fell on the table.

I looked at Jiang Yimeng and found that she was glaring at me: "It's rude, the host's family hasn't served yet!" Mr. Xiao hasn't come yet, you have to eat first, there are no rules at all. ”

I was speechless by her, so I could only lower my head and rub the back of my hand that was beaten red by her.

"Hey, hey! Boy, finally someone can control you, hehehehehe! Old man Xiao's hearty laughter came from behind.

"Don't laugh at people, you can say it! Where's that guy who cares about you? Aunt Ji glared at him.

"Okay, okay, everyone has arrived, let's eat quickly!" Uncle Ji waved his hand holding the chopsticks.

I picked up my chopsticks again and headed for the sauerkraut fish clip in the basin, and a large pot full of fish meat was piled up in the milky white fish soup. The yellow-green sauerkraut and green onions decorate this large pot of fish into a beautiful work of art, so beautiful that I can't bear to put down my chopsticks. Because I'm afraid of ruining this beautiful work of art.
