The night, dark and dreary, as if the boundless thick ink was heavily smeared on the sky, the night fog hit, and the fast-forward midsummer night was a little cool, and even the air became a little hazy.

On the shore of the artificial lake in Tianhe City, a teenager stared at the lake in a daze, the dim street lamps on the shore looked a little angry, and the willow trees writhed in the wind in the dark, like a monster with teeth and claws.

The boy's name is Xiang Huairen, he is a senior high school student, today happens to be his birthday, a few classmates in the class who are good with him want to invite him out to have a good time, but he can't live or die, in Xiang Huairen's own words, he has been talking for more than ten years, and he has not had a serious birthday for more than ten years, and it is better to spend money on this day, it just so happens that today is a day off on Sunday, and I wanted to find some odd jobs to do a day of part-time work, who knew that helping a fallen grandmother on the side of the road was falsely accused of the only two hundred and fifty yuan left in her pocket, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart" It's hard to be a good person in this world."

Xiang Huairen's current place, if it was a normal place, he would definitely not dare to come to this artificial lake at night to stay, there are quite a lot of people during the day, but at night, there is not even a single figure here.

Because this lake is very evil, since the lake was built five years ago, people will drown here every year, because the flow is often broken, the lake is not deep, the deepest place is up to the chest of a normal adult, but it can drown people.! There are old people who say that the people who drown are all people who have not reached the end of their lives, and they belong to the ghosts of the dead, and the people who are dying are full of unwillingness and want others to experience his pain, and some people say that the people who die cannot enter the cycle of reincarnation and must find a substitute to suffer in place of him in order to enter the underworld.

Huairen didn't know why he came here, and when he passed by here, he always felt that there was something here that attracted him, and he wanted to sit here and watch the lake and relax. But I don't know why, the more I sit here, the more negative emotions in my heart become.

"Why is kindness not rewarded? Why do others have to live a tight life when they can eat well and dress well? Why can other people's holidays be enjoyable, why do you still have to work in the fields? Why are you so tired? Why".

Xiang Huairen thought indignantly, and suddenly he saw a group of people playing in the center of the lake through the dim street lamp on the side of the road, there were old people, children and young people, about 20 people, this group of people seemed to appear out of thin air, Xiang Huairen frowned and felt strange, what are these people doing in the lake in the middle of the night? Swimming?

Xiang Huairen looked at this group of people curiously, and suddenly he felt that there was a gaze staring at him, and he looked over by feeling, it was an old lady with white hair, this old lady's face was very white, a kind of white without any blood.

The white-faced old lady was halfway in the water, holding a crutch in her hand to support her curved body, staring at herself with slanted eyes, her expression was indescribably weird, seeing Xiang Huairen looking at herself, the white-faced old lady's miserable face showed a gloomy smile again, and walked towards him.

The two were obviously far away, but the old lady only took a few steps to get to the bottom of Xiang Huairen's feet, she raised her head and looked at Xiang Huairen with a miserable smile, beckoning to him and signaling him to come down.

Xiang Huairen asked curiously, "Old woman, what are you all doing in the lake in the middle of the night, come up, people say that there are ghosts in the lake."

The white-faced old lady didn't answer, he still raised his head and stared at him with a grim smile, Xiang Huairen looked at the old lady's grim smile and shivered unconsciously, just wanted to stand up, a cold wind blew through his pure black eyes and became wooden.

At this moment, Xiang Huairen's brain became hollow, he didn't know what he was thinking and didn't know what he wanted to do, he just stared at the water in a daze, as if there was something in the water that attracted him, the feeling intensified, just when he was about to jump down only to hear the sound of "wow", Xiang Huairen felt a chill on the top of his head, and a smell of wine lees reached his nasal cavity.

He quickly stood up and wiped his face, feeling that there was something sticky in his hand as if it was some kind of excrement, and he wiped the slimy liquid off his eyes indiscriminately to see the person in front of him.

Spit on him was an old drunkard of about seventy or eighty years old, the old drunkard was in rags, with long messy white hair, rosacea, a peachwood sword behind his back, and a wine gourd and a sackcloth wrapped around his waist.

Xiang Huairen looked at the white "milk knock" long sleeves that had been washed by himself, pointed at the old man angrily and roared, "Ah! You're a few old lights! This is a brand I bought from a stall for twenty-five dollars."

The old drunkard blushed and squinted his eyes, he staggered to the shore and said drunkenly to the people in the lake, "You~you~ You all stopped!" Don't~ Don't yell at the poor road! forehead ......", and didn't forget to burp after speaking.

The smiling people in the center of the lake pulled down their faces and looked at the old man with vicious eyes, and then slowly disappeared.

At the same time, in a corner of the night, an old man with a cigarette pouch pinned to his waist stared at Xiang Huairen and the two of them for a long time and slowly retreated, but his presence did not attract the attention of the two.

Xiang Huairen didn't pay attention to the scene at the bottom of the lake, and when he saw that the old drunkard didn't speak, he was even more angry, "Hey! Old drunkard! You look at me, don't think that if you ignore me, you won't have to lose money, I tell you it's impossible! Money! ”。

The old drunkard staggered around when he heard the sound, "What~ What money?" ", the old drunkard said drunkly.

Xiang Huairen said impatiently: "What money are you talking about?" You threw up all over me! My clothes are dirty! Seeing that you are an old man, I don't want much from you, a dress twenty-five is in plus I need a shower and I need... Feed! What are you doing? Before he finished speaking, Xiang Huairen found that something was wrong with the old drunkard, and the old man who had been squinting his eyes suddenly stared at himself with wide eyes, and he was a little panicked.

Xiang Huairen suddenly remembered a news in the city, "Recently, many men in the city have been sexually assaulted by the same sex, and the suspects are still at large, please stay at home as much as possible at night."

Thinking of this, Xiang Huairen couldn't help but feel a chill behind him, and thought in his heart, "I'll go!" You won't be able to carry it like this! He is indeed quite handsome with a Chinese face, his sword eyebrows, especially his eyes, are black and do not contain any impurities, even if he is usually teased by a little girl, this old man will not be interesting to me, right" Thinking of this, Xiang Huairen tightened a certain part of his buttocks.

He coughed and said in a panic, "Ahem! What kind of, no, no, uncle, no! Big brother, I, I, and I still have something to do, you are so old, it's not easy, just forget about the money. I'll go first," he said, turning around and leaving.

"Stop!" , The old drunkard said sharply, and then clasped Xiang Huairen's right shoulder with his hand from behind, Xiang Huairen felt that things were not good and was about to run, but the old man's strength was not like words, and he grabbed his shoulder with his hand and couldn't move a bit, just wanted to ask the people in the lake for help, but found that the people in the lake didn't know when they were gone.

Then the old man put his left hand on his shoulder and slowly turned him back, looking at each other! The old man slowly approached Xiang Huairen, and his face was almost closed.

Xiang Huairen showed a crying face, he wanted to die, looking at this situation, he guessed that he would not leave ten, this old drunkard was really a gay, but he didn't expect that he had been guarding himself like a jade for nineteen years, once the girl didn't sleep until the end, but she wanted to let a bad old man sleep for herself, according to this situation, you will definitely not be able to run, it is better to be obedient and suffer less.

Thinking of this, Xiang Huairen lay on the ground with a ruthless heart, twisted his head and opened his legs, and a series of movements flowed.

The old drunkard was a little dazed when he saw this, but he didn't have the drunkenness he had before, he scratched his head and asked puzzledly, "Young man!" What are you doing? ”。

Xiang Huairen twisted his head and said angrily, "I'm unlucky to meet you today, come on!" Dead, none of us know anyone after tonight! I don't have to be responsible for me."

After hearing this, the old drunkard's face turned red for a while, and his mouth twitched with anger, he just didn't understand what Xiang Huairen meant at this time.

The old drunkard raised his foot and kicked Xiang Huairen wildly, and scolded in his mouth, "You little rabbit cub, you are poor and self-loving all your life, and you still want the old man to be finished, I will kick you to death."

The old drunkard's feet were very heavy, Xiang Huairen was kicked in the ground with the call of "oops, oops", Xiang Huairen saw that the white-faced old lady who didn't know when to leave when the lake was low came back, the white-faced old lady was staring at the old drunkard, Xiang Huairen covered his head as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw and crawled towards the white-faced old lady, "Old woman, call the police, this dead is going to kill someone."

When the old man heard this, he kicked even harder, "Little rabbit, who do you call?" Poor Dao is the famous Huang Qianxun Dao Chang of Qingyun Mountain, you dare to call Poor Dao, Poor Dao kicks you and the little rabbit cub to death".

The white-faced old lady under the lake saw that the distance was enough, grabbed Xiang Huairen's wrist and dragged him into the water, the old drunkard saw that the white-faced old lady in the water dragged Xiang Huairen and didn't kick him, grabbed one of Xiang Huairen's bare feet and began to drag it back, the strength of the two people was not small, but the old man was better, Xiang Huairen was afraid that the old man would beat his calf and kick him indiscriminately and wanted to go to the lake to avoid the limelight.

The old drunkard was furious in his heart, and increased his strength, and was about to drag Xiang Huairen ashore, the white-faced old lady saw that Xiang Huairen was about to go ashore, and screamed at the crowd behind her, just in the blink of an eye, more than 20 people appeared in front of Xiang Huairen, but everyone became strange, some were swollen all over the body, some were blue, and then look at the white-faced old lady, her whole face was floating, her eyes bulged out, and her sockets were connected by blood vessels, hanging outside, and she was smiling evilly at him.

No matter how stupid Xiang Huairen is, he knows that this person is not a human being! He screamed! Turning back to Huang Qianxun, he shouted, "Old man! Help me! ”。

The old drunkard said angrily, "Little rabbit, let you insult the chief."

Xiang Huairen begged in a mournful voice, "Uncle ~ Big Brother ~ I'm sorry, I don't know Mount Tai with my eyes, as long as you save me, you will be my godson,... No, no! I'll just think you're my godson, okay? ”。

The old drunkard said leisurely, "Then you don't need to promise me three things, what's the matter?" ”。

Xiang Huairen was in charge of so many lives, and the most important thing was to hurriedly shout: "Okay! Yes! Yes! Pull me up."

The old drunkard pinned the wine gourd to his waist and grabbed Xiang Huairen's other foot, and exerted force with both hands at the same time, but it was good that Xiang Huairen was in pain, and he felt that his limbs were about to be torn off.

The old drunkard also noticed that something was wrong, relieved his strength, and said angrily to the ghosts in the lake, "What! Don't you give the poor road this face? Slapped me in the face, didn't you? ”。

The ghosts in the lake ignored him, staring at Xiang Huairen one by one, showing a greedy smile, as if Xiang Huairen was a piece of fat to his mouth.

The old drunkard knew that even if he could drag Xiang Huairen ashore, he would definitely break his arms and legs, so it was better to free up and collect these ghosts, so he threw his hand away, Xiang Huairen plunged into the water, but when he wanted to stand up, he felt that there were hands holding his face so that he couldn't raise his head, Xiang Huairen felt that he had struggled in the water for five or six seconds, but it seemed like five or six hours, he opened his eyes and found that there was a floating face in front of him, his eyes seemed to be swelled out of his sockets due to a long time of soaking, and an evil smile was upturned on the side of his mouth, He hadn't taken much breath on it, and choked on several mouthfuls of water after adding such a start, Xiang Huairen felt that his eyes were black and fainted.

The water ghosts looked at the old drunkard with a smug smile on their faces one by one, and the old drunkard frowned and said angrily: "I don't give you a lesson, you are very skinny!" ”。

After speaking, the old drunkard took out a gossip mirror from his bag and put a yellow talisman in front of the gossip mirror, and chanted this mantra in his mouth.

Suddenly, a yellow light shot from the gossip mirror to the ghosts in the lake, the yellow light was mixed with dense incantations, and black smoke came out of the ghosts that were illuminated one by one, and their bodies became a little transparent.

The water ghost screamed in the lake, but there was no soul scattered, and after a long time, all the water ghosts' figures became close to transparent, the old drunkard put away the gossip mirror, took out a wooden comb, sorted out his messy hairstyle, and said proudly: "The poor road has the virtue of a good life, and only beat you to serious injuries, I hope you will live and recuperate here, and when your yang life is over, you will have your own yin to take you into the underworld, don't do evil, you that..."
