"I..."

The secretary was shocked, and he didn't know what he had just said, and why the villagers were looking at him with an unkind look at him at this time.

"Secretary, we have always respected and trusted you, and this is how you treat us?" The son of the first corpse asked with a suppressed fire temperament.

"What are you guys messing about!" The confused secretary was a little annoyed, and he tugged at his somewhat tight neckline and roared.

"What are we doing?" Another villager also spoke, "You can be so arrogant when you do this kind of thing yourself, you ask us what to do!" ”

The secretary's face froze, he glanced at the corpse next to him, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

"What did I do?" He asked tentatively.

"You're exposed." Liu Xiaoying, who had been watching the play, pointed to the corpse on the ground and said.

The secretary's face froze, and he turned his head to look at the villagers who were glaring at him, and suddenly lost his confidence.

"Xiao Wang..."Shi Lao sighed and looked at the secretary sadly, "You are doing evil!" ”

His words were like a lead, which suddenly made the secretary's heart explode.

"I didn't do anything!"

The secretary's wife sighed and said a little weakly: "You have already said it all just now, don't explain." ”

"......" The secretary was silent for a long time, and suddenly sighed a little tiredly, "It's all handed down from my ancestors..."

The villagers glanced at each other, and their hearts became more and more unpleasant.

The three generations of the Wang family are all village secretaries, and everyone is happy to be led by them, but they didn't expect this family to do this kind of thing.

"What did your father tell you?" Ji Yue didn't pay attention to the other villagers, just looked at the secretary and asked in a flat tone.

The secretary glanced at her and pursed his lips.

"My father told me that the god of water also needed servants, so whenever someone died in the village, I would secretly dig up the body and throw it into the pool. What's wrong with me doing this, they have kept their original appearance, their corpses have not rotted for decades, they must have gone to serve the god of water, this is their blessing! ”

"This—" The man who spoke first hesitated for a moment, looked at his father's body, and didn't know how to answer.

It seems to make sense...

"There is no god of water here." Qu Yilian interjected.

They had already said many times that there was no water god here, and they were still like this, which made several girls a little helpless.

"Then they..."

Qu Yilian lost patience with these people, her fingers moved slightly, and a trace of powder spilled out of the bracelet on her wrist, which was blown away by the wind and dissipated into the air.

Hiss –

Soon, the spine-chilling sound of a snake hissing was heard, and the sound of objects rubbing against the ground sounded a little tooth-aching.

One by one, the most common grass snakes in the mountains swam out of the bushes and stood in a semicircle outside the crowd, spitting out letters and looking at the people on the shore.

"Where are so many snakes!"

Qu Yilian looked at everyone's flustered expressions, the corners of her lips hooked a little mocking, she walked directly past everyone towards the group of snakes that had formed a circle, and said softly: "Stand down." ”

The little golden wings on top of her head fluttered very tacitly, silently conveying a message to the snakes.

There was a commotion in the group of snakes, and out of instinctive fear of the Golden Silkworm Gu, they began to swim backwards, and soon disappeared here.

In the eyes of everyone, it was like Qu Yilian drank away the snakes with one sentence.

"See, people can also do this kind of supernatural thing, there is no water god in the pool, and the corpse does not decompose for other reasons!"

sighed in his heart that he had pretended to be a pen by flickering, but Qu Yilian maintained the appearance of a master outside the world.

The villagers were bluffed.

"The anomalies of these corpses are all man-made, and they have been soaked in the waterhole for decades, which has already affected the village's water supply, and any longer time will cause harm to everyone's body." Ji Yue stated the facts expressionlessly.

Hearing this, the villagers' expressions changed.

Compared to the problem of the corpses of the ancestors, it seems that one's own health is more important...

"It's... That's impossible! The secretary was also shocked by Ji Yue's words.

He has always thought that this waterhole is a sacred pool, thinking that the water here must be better than the well water, and he often takes some home to drink...

This...

"Gross!"

It was only then that the secretary remembered the problem of drinking water.

Liu Xiaoying, who was on the side, saw his reaction, her face also changed, she turned around silently, stretched out her hand and patted her chest to smooth out.

She took a sip and didn't drink it, it's fine...

"The person who did this has bad intentions, and if you want to solve it, I hope you can tell me everything you know." Ji Yue said to the secretary with a dish-faced face.

"I've been saying this since my grandfather was in office, but I was too young to know the specifics." The secretary glanced at the waterhole with some sadness on his face.

"Ahem, cough, cough..."Shi Lao coughed, leaned on his crutches and said, "If it is the matter of this water god, I have heard my father tell me..."

And all the people looked at him.

Shi Lao is probably the most known among the people present.

"When a man with glasses came to the village, I was very impressed by him."

He slowly recalled.

When he first met the man, he was very curious, he was different from everyone in the village, he wore thick glasses and a gentle smile on his face. His hands are slender and delicate, and his skin is fair, which is not at all different from the people who do farm work all the year round in the mountain village, and it was the old secretary who received him at that time, that is, the grandfather of the current secretary.

"That man is very good-looking, more delicate than the prettiest girl in our village."

"He brought a lot of bottles and jars and equipment that I had never seen before, and he wandered around the village every day. The elders didn't let us children disturb him, but out of curiosity, we secretly followed him all the way to the waterhole. ”

"Later, when he found out about us, he didn't get angry, but just gently called us out and gave us a piece of candy..."

Shi Lao seemed to remember something worth remembering.

"That sugar is so sweet, it's the best thing I've ever eaten in my life."

"......" Everyone was speechless for a while, and stopped at the most critical moment, but they didn't expect it to be a piece of sugar!

"And then?" Liu Xiaoying couldn't help but urge in a low voice.

"Later," Shi Lao stroked his beard, "and then a few of us were driven home, and we were almost rewarded with a few sticks by my father for disturbing the guests." ”

Ji Yue frowned slightly.

Judging from the time Shi Lao said, that man was probably the one who set up the formation under the waterhole.

Sure enough, the old man continued: "That's what the man said, the water quality of this pool is different from other places, and it is very pure. It was then that the village regarded the waterhole as a sacred pool. ”
