It was only a short time, when I looked at the blue-haired girl, I suddenly understood why Dong Si felt that she should do something in the dark was because of the girl's eyes.

What a pair of eyes! Indifferent, profound, the girl just stood there alone and looked at us, as if she were looking at two lifeless dead things. There is no trace of emotion in his eyes, like a black hole that swallows everything, and people can't feel a trace of warmth.

"What the hell is going on with her?" I could feel that something was clearly wrong with the aura around the girl, and a strange feeling came over me, just like when I met the woman in the alley that day. It's just that this time I felt a deep sadness.

The girl looked at us blankly, and the green beneath her feet writhed a few times in a strange gesture, as if to express something, and then the girl turned and walked into the depths of the water.

"Wait......"

Dong Si and I shouted almost in unison.

However, the girl didn't even look back, didn't even pause. Straight into the deep water and vanished, and the green thing followed. Leaving only a ripple on the surface of the water, empty as if nothing had appeared.

"You saw it, you understand why I'm back here, right?" Dong Si looked at the ripples in the water that gradually dispersed and said.

"Well, I see. Do you know what that is? "I'm referring to the green stuff under the girl's feet.

"I don't know, but I don't think that girl should be with that thing." Dong Si said.

I nodded, "I understand, you're trying to help her." But before we do that, I think we should first figure out what the hell is going on. ”

"I understand what you're saying, but how do you figure it out?"

I looked at the sky and said to Dong Si, "Leave this to me, but now it's time for us to go back, it's not too early." ”

On the way back, Dong Si and I didn't say much, we were both thinking about our own things. She may have been obsessed with the girl, and I was thinking about the other person. That's right, it's Xuefei. As a god and demon, she should know the details of that green guy, and she will definitely be able to help me explain what that girl is all about.

At the entrance of my residential area, Dong Si said goodbye to me, and I still remember her appearance when she left. She stood on the ground with one foot on the car and stopped me as I was leaving.

"Murphy! Promise me that you must find a way to help her, okay? ”

Looking at Dong Si's watery eyes and longing look, what else can I do? I could only nod, give her a comforting smile, and say, "Don't worry." ”

Alas, Dong Si, Dong Si! I really don't know if her bodhisattva heart is good or bad!

Walking into my yard, I glanced at the window of the living room, and there was no movement inside. Dad should be in the kitchen, and my brother is just in good health, so he doesn't know where to go.

I hesitated, didn't go back to the house, and walked into the warehouse instead. Before going to bed at night, I want to make clear what I have seen and heard today, otherwise I will always pretend to be in my heart and I will lose sleep.

"It's rare, you came so early today, did you miss me? My little Phil. ”

Xue Fei's lazy voice came, and then her figure also appeared in the many miscellaneous objects, and her sharp and charming eyes looked at me with a smile rather than a smile.

"Uh, can we stop calling Xiao Fei'er or something, it feels weird."

"Okay, then call Fei Baobao."

"Don't!"

"Fifi."

"Well, whatever you want." I feel helpless like a surging river, endless.

"Hehe......" Xue Feijiao smiled, like a silver bell, I have to admit that since she recovered, her voice is really good.

"Okay, seriously." Xue Fei put away her smile and asked seriously: "Did you encounter something strange, come to me to solve your doubts?" ”

"How do you know?"

"It's the spiritual power flowing through you. There's a grief in it that doesn't belong to you. ”

Xue Fei walked up to me, and with a flick of her little finger, a strip of pale green silky spiritual power separated from me and gently fell between her fingers.

"That's it!" After feeling the breath of spiritual power, Xue Fei said softly.

"Who is it?" I asked hurriedly.

"You're going to the water's edge today, aren't you? You're meeting a water spirit, yes, it's the kind of guy that's big, like a king-size jelly. Xue Fei said.

"But there's something weird!" Xue Fei furrowed her brows, as if she couldn't figure out something.

"What's strange?" I asked.

"That's right, the water soul is strictly different from you and me, it is a species between life and death, it has no consciousness, it only lives by instinct, how can it have sadness like this?"

"Actually, the specific situation is like this......" So, I told Xue Fei everything I saw in the reservoir, especially the blue-haired girl.

"That's right. It was the water soul that was contaminated with the girl's breath, so there was naturally a trace of sadness in the girl's thoughts. Xue Fei nodded.

"But why is that girl with this water spirit?" I don't understand.

"Have you ever heard of the bride of the river god?"

I shook my head, saying I had never heard of it.

Xue Fei walked over, put her arm around my shoulders, and said slowly: "In ancient times, whenever there was a flood of the river, people would worship the river god, and among the sacrifices used for worship were not only pigs, sheep, grain and rice, but also one of the most important sacrifices - the eighteen-year-old girl. ”

"No, it won't." I was a little incredulous.

"Yes, it was thought that if the river god accepted all the sacrifices, the river would be calm again, and the people would be blessed with good weather and abundant crops. It's a pity ......"

"Unfortunately not, does it?" I asked.

"Yes, not really. The river god would only take the opportunity to accept all the sacrifices, but he would not pay a blind eye to the disaster, leaving the foolish people who worshiped him to their fate. Anyway, when the disaster has passed, people will think that the river god has appeared. If it doesn't pass, people will bring more offerings, so why not? ”

"Alas, human stupidity is always so creative!" I complained.

Xue Fei smiled when she heard my words, and then continued, "But of all the sacrifices, the river god is the only one who will not touch those maidens. ”

"I know, because the human soul is a drug to you, and it will make you fall, right?" I remember what Xue Fei once said.

Xue Fei nodded, "Yes, so most of these miserable girls have only one fate, and that is to drown in the merciless flood." However, there are very few exceptions. ”

"Because of the water soul?"

Xue Fei nodded again, "Because the water soul has no self-awareness, whenever there is a water soul passing by occasionally, the girl's soul fire will attract it like a light in the dark. ”

Speaking of this, Xue Fei paused slightly and said hello to Gu Xuaniao, who had just returned. The latter nodded to us as a gesture of acknowledgment, and then sat down with the other elves.

After watching Gu Houniao sit down, Xue Fei continued the topic just now.

"But unlike other goblins, the water soul does not devour the souls of the girls, but slowly assimilates with the girls. So not only will those girls not die, but they will also survive because of the intervention of the water spirit. It's just that they can no longer leave the water soul on their own, and once they leave, what awaits them is death. And even then they are no longer their original selves, and once the water spirits are completely assimilated with them, they will be completely demonized, and eventually become what people call kappa. ”

After saying so much in one breath, Xue Fei looked at me quietly for a while, her eyes were shining, and she continued after half a ring: "I think the girl you met is in this state now, that is to say, if you and your little friend want to intervene to save her, it is very likely that she will die." And if left unchecked, she will eventually cease to be human. So after knowing all this, what are you going to do? ”
