There were a lot of people in the house, and I hurried to find my brother, and I didn't know where they had gone.

Soon I was pushed to the front, and the old man looked at me and stretched out his hand, motioned for me to sit down, and asked, "Do you want to hear the story?" ”

"I don't want to." I looked at it and asked, "Did you see two strange people coming in?" ”

"There are a lot of strange people coming in here every day." It spoke slowly, with the appearance of a storyteller: "What story do you want to hear?" ”

“… I don't want to hear anything. I looked at it: "I'm asking about the person who just came in, don't you see?" ”

"I didn't see anything, and the answers you want are in the story." In a mysterious tone, it cleared its throat and began to speak: "The hero of the story is a little boy, he is very naughty, and one day he comes to the lake of the village..."

"I accidentally drowned, the story is over, can you tell me?"

"No, no, no, that's not the story." "The little boy came to the lake to find his brother, and it is said in the village that people drowned in the lake, and they all became water ghosts," he said. ”

"They hid under the water, waiting for passers-by to stop, and when the little boy went, he didn't find his brother, but he found his brother's clothes floating on the water, and the water around him turned blood-red."

"As a person with a brother, I am very dissatisfied with your story." I looked at him coldly, suspecting that the old fellow had said it on purpose.

"After a while, the little boy heard a strange sound in the water, as if someone was talking to him, 'Brother, come on, I found something funny,' and he looked for the sound and walked into the lake as if he was fascinated."

The water gradually flooded overhead and into his mouth and nose, and he soon sank to the bottom of the lake with difficulty breathing, where he saw the body of his brother who had been soaked and was holding him with his hands, and the two of them fell asleep together.

“… The mood is full of emotion. I saw that he had finally finished speaking, and was about to ask again, when suddenly he pushed me, and suddenly it was dark in front of me, and then the house and the old man were gone, and the scene in front of me changed rapidly, and a vast lake appeared in front of me.

"What's going on?" I looked around in amazement, and found myself standing by the lake, and when I looked up, there was a piece of clothing floating in the center of the lake: "Is it my brother's clothes?" ”

Something instantly came to mind: "... Am I that little boy? ”

When I was stunned, my brother's voice suddenly came from nowhere: "Tu poor! Help me! ”

Then he peeked out from under the surface of the lake, struggling to swim to the shore, followed by a strange thing, too far away to see.

"Poor! Help me! He swam desperately, and suddenly pulled him down into the lake as if he was being dragged by something.

"Brother!" I hurriedly threw myself into the water, cursing in my heart that my brother had probably been tricked by the old man.

I was very anxious when I saw this, and hurriedly hurried over, holding my breath and sinking to the bottom of the lake, I saw my brother struggling under the water and reaching out, desperately swimming upstream.

As soon as I rushed over, he suddenly smiled weirdly, hugged me, and pressed me to the bottom of the water.

"Not good! Hit the trick! "I choked on a mouthful of water, and in an instant I had difficulty breathing, and I struggled desperately to swim away.

He suddenly opened his mouth strangely, his face became distorted, and a terrifying voice drilled into my head: "Stay with me!" Stay with me! ”

I groped around my waist to find the ghost detector knife, and stabbed him with my backhand, and I couldn't see whether it hurt him in the darkness at the bottom of the lake, so I only felt a loosening of my body, and I hurriedly took the opportunity to swim up, and returned to the lake in one breath, breathing desperately.

As soon as he took two breaths, his feet sank, and he grabbed him and pulled him down.

"You forced it!" I couldn't help it, so I let him drag me along, lightly touching the ring under the water, and shouted in my heart: "Brothers of the Smoker Gang! ”

Soon, black smoke emerged from the ring, like a tide, and a large number of ghosts led by Lao Yi appeared in the water, bustling, and the bottom of the lake became lively in an instant.

Lao Yi came out with his head in his arms, just opened his mouth to speak, and directly drank a sip of water and was stunned on the spot, staring at me, asking what was going on?

I pointed to the water ghost that was grabbing me, it was swimming vigorously, turned my head and suddenly found that there was an extra group of ghosts around, and suddenly I was stunned, reacted very quickly, immediately let go of me, and then knelt at the bottom of the lake and began to kowtow and beg for mercy.

I made a gesture to Lao Yi to bring him up, and then swam back to the shore by myself, and after about a few minutes, I stood on the shore and looked out, and a horde of ghosts came out of the lake and gathered together, like a soldier returning from a victory, the scene was extremely spectacular.

Lao Yi brought the water ghost to me, kicked him to his knees and asked me, "What's the matter?" It also ran into the water and opened. ”

"It's hard to say a word, and it's been overshadowed." I shook off the water on my body and looked at the water ghost with cold eyes, this guy can't help but imitate human voices, and can also become a familiar person, which is really a bit tricky.

"Has my brother ever been here?" I asked it, and it was scared, "... Before you, there was also a man who was sent over... I don't know who he is..."

"What does it look like?"

"Not tall, not short, short hair."

"Am I handsome?"

It was stunned for a moment when I asked, and hurriedly shook its head: "No, no." ”

"That's not my brother." I touched my chin and said, "Anything else?" ”

"I pulled him into the water and ran away without paying attention, but he dropped something in the water, and I can help you get it..."

"I don't need you to go." I was afraid that he would play tricks again, so I said to Lao Yi: "You go and take a look." ”

He jumped into the water with his head in his hands and returned after about a few minutes with a dirty object in his hand.

I took it and washed it clean with water, and when I saw what it was, I was stunned, and my whole heart immediately pinched, and I grabbed the water ghost and asked, "Who is this person?!" Make it clear! ”

"I... I... I really can't remember, people come here every day, I don't remember the faces of these people..."

I saw that it didn't look like it was lying, so I could only let go and stare at what I was holding, feeling uneasy.

The fat boy appeared and was stunned when he saw it: "This thing will be in purgatory?" ”

I didn't speak, Lao Yi looked dazed and didn't know what was going on: "What the hell is this?" It's rare to see you feel so upset as you are now. ”

"It's really unsettling." I looked at what I was holding and frowned: "Grimace Mask... How did it end up in this place? ”

I remembered the assassination scene earlier, the same man in a grimace mask, who disguised himself as a drunkard and attacked when I was unprepared, and if he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been stabbed to death.

"What the hell is this?" Lao Yi asked curiously again.

I looked at the mask and shook my head uneasy: "I don't know, but it's not a good stubble." ”

"Does the appearance of the masks here mean that these masked people are also in purgatory?" I suddenly thought of something, and my heart trembled: "But it shouldn't be, the door of purgatory was opened in Yuan's old man's house, and they shouldn't be able to come over." ”

"The person with the mask said something before, he said that my brother died, and I was the only one left, but now I came to save my brother in purgatory, and the mask suddenly appeared, this is definitely not a coincidence, it is very likely that they also came here and wanted to stop my action."

After thinking about it, I put away my mask, and the water ghost looked at me with a worried face: "... Can you let me go? ”

"Let's go? Where to go? I ask you, do you want to leave purgatory? ”

"Huh?" It looked at me in surprise, its face dazed, but it nodded anyway: "I want to..."

"Come with me, I'll get you out of here."

He was shocked, as if I had been beaten by my words, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

"If you like purgatory and don't want to leave, forget it."

"No, no, no! I do! I'm following you! He nodded hurriedly, a place like purgatory is impermanent, people don't like it, and ghosts can't be comfortable, otherwise where would there be so many wanderers who give up their souls?

I smiled and reached out to touch the ring with it, and soon it turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared into the ring.

"You're a big go-getter." Seeing this, Lao Yi said: "I'm afraid it's not to establish a ghost country." ”

"It's not that serious, there are never too many people, not to mention that it is the only one that can move underwater, and it will always be used, that is, it needs your help to manage more." I touched the ring and said, "When my brother is rescued, the power of the two rings will be even greater, and you will be busy." ”

"It's an honor for the old man to serve you." He smiled, and after that all the ghosts turned into smoke and returned to the ring.

I touched the grimace mask on my waist, and my heart was heavy: "When I get my brother out, the first thing I need to do is to investigate who you really are." ”
