Fu Ling sat a little cold, and said to Xuanwu: "Master, I feel a little cold, let's walk around the lake." ”

"It's fine." After Xuanwu finished speaking, he stood up, pulled Fu Ling on the path by the lake, and walked slowly.

Fu Ling looked around as he walked, and said to Xuanwu, "I didn't see the demonic energy, did you see it?" ”

Xuanwu frowned and said, "No, except for being too deserted here, everything is normal. ”

Fu Ling asked strangely: "I didn't see the demon, I didn't see the ghost, could it be that several of them are crazy, and they have nothing to do to jump into the lake to play by themselves?" ”

Xuanwu suddenly stopped, and said in a firm tone: "No, they were seduced. ”

Fu Ling asked curiously, "What do you see?" ”

"You can feel the aura around you."

Fu Ling closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly. Fu Ling's heart was inexplicably filled with sadness, many old events appeared in her mind, Fu Ling seemed to have returned to her childhood, the classmates in the class were talking about her behind her back, the old people in the village were telling their children to stay away from her, she was sick and wanted to eat sweet and sour canned hawthorn, but the master poured her a bowl of brown sugar ginger water, and Ao Tian scolded her for being stupid, she was so angry that she walked out of the ancient well, but she didn't know where to go, so she could only sit on the bluestone at the mouth of the well.

Fu Ling's heart was pantothenic when he thought of this, and tears flowed involuntarily.

"Runes!" Xuanwu's cry woke up Fu Ling, who found that he had walked to the edge of the lake, and was about to step into the lake after taking another step.

Fu Ling looked around and found Xuanwu standing behind him, and asked nervously, "Xuanwu, what's going on?" ”

"We're a little bit farther away from the lake." Xuanwu said, pulling the rune spirit to the bench under the tree.

Zhang Bin ran over from a distance and asked breathlessly, "What's the matter?" I was startled when I saw you walking towards the lake. ”

Xuanwu glanced at Zhang Bin and said, "Let's sit down and talk." ”

Zhang Bin saw that there were tears on Fu Ling's face, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Fu Ling wiped away his tears with the back of his hand and said, "I want to eat canned hawthorn." ”

Zhang Bin was speechless.

Xuanwu said: "Do you know that there is a water monster in the water, called the water tiger. It lives in rivers and looks like a three- or four-year-old child, but its body is covered with hard scales, and it usually dives into the water with its whole body, only its knees that resemble tiger claws on the water. It has the beak of a bird, the limbs of a frog, the body of a monkey, and the shell of a turtle. ”

Fu Ling sighed with emotion: "It's ugly enough! ”

Xuanwu looked at the lake, nodded and said, "It's quite ugly." ”

Fu Ling asked nervously, "Did it just want to lure me into the lake and eat me?" ”

Xuanwu explained: "It is in its nature to disturb people's minds, to remind them of sad pasts, to lure people to the water, and then to eat them. ”

Fu Ling looked at the lake, "It's so insidious, why didn't I see the demonic energy?" ”

Xuanwu frowned and said, "It's an animal. ”

Fu Ling asked, "Is it a national key protected animal?" Don't be like a Siberian tiger, it's okay for it to eat me, if I hurt it, I will be sentenced. ”

Zhang Bin asked, "The water tiger you are talking about, is it also called a kappa?" Doesn't it live in a river? Is this a lake, or is it a lake that is only a little bigger than a football field? ”

Xuanwu also looked at Taihe Lake and said, "I'm also very strange. ”

Zhang Bin asked, "Can we catch it?" Only by grasping it can the surrounding masses believe that it is not a ghost asking for their lives. ”

Xuanwu looked at Zhang Bin and said in a heavy tone: "The water tiger will not come to this newly built small lake by himself, the person who can get it is not simple, you better pretend that you don't know anything, and act as if nothing happened." ”

Zhang Bin looked at Xuanwu and said, "Let the water tiger continue to harm people, I can't do it." ”

"But now I don't have any good way, I can only strengthen the patrol first, let's go back, don't tell anyone about this matter, including your classmates and your captain." After Xuanwu finished speaking, he pulled Fu Ling and walked towards his car.

Zhang Bin still had a stomach full of questions to ask, but Xuanwu didn't want to talk to him anymore, and he also understood what Xuanwu meant.

Zhang Bin sat on a bench and looked at the calm lake, although he was not very old, he also knew the complexity of society and the darkness of officialdom. This matter is not something that he can investigate as a small police officer, and pretending not to know anything is really the only option he can make.

Fu Ling got into the car and asked Xuanwu, "What are you going to do?" ”

"This matter has to be handled by Ao Tian."

Fu Ling asked puzzledly, "Why?" Can't we catch it? ”

"I'm going to catch it, I'm going to do it. All animals are afraid of dragons, and the water tiger is no exception, and Ao Tian can take him away when he appears, and then send it where it belongs. ”

Fu Ling thought for a moment, "Then you go and tell Ao Tian, I'm tired, go home and sleep first." ”

Xuanwu said lightly: "I know. ”

When the two of them got home, Fu Ling washed his face, and really slept honestly, and didn't ask about Xuanwu and Shui Hu again.

That night, there was a sudden heavy rain, and people who were awakened by the sound of the rain were complaining about what was going on this year.

Early in the morning, Fu Ling got up early, came to the kitchen, and was preparing to wash rice and cook.

Xuanwu walked in and asked, "What's wrong with you lately?" Why do you always get up so early? ”

"I'm going to make porridge. You can sleep a little longer, and I'll call you when the meal is ready. ”

Xuanwu said: "You are tossing so much in the kitchen, can I still sleep?" ”

"Then I'll tap it." After Fu Ling finished speaking, he deliberately lightly washed rice to make porridge.

Xuanwu smiled and said, "I'm all up, what else do you have to be careful, but I'm a little worried about you cooking." ”

Fu Ling smiled and said, "Are you afraid that what I make is not delicious?" You don't have to worry about this, I just use the rice cooker to make porridge, and the other dishes are ready-made, there are ham sausages, there are olive vegetables, and we eat them simply in the morning. ”

"Okay, as long as you don't use the knife, you don't use the fire." After Xuanwu finished speaking, he felt that the little matter of making porridge could be solved by Fu Ling, and there was no need for him to stand in the kitchen and stare at it, so he turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

Fu Ling put the washed rice into the rice cooker, set up the porridge, and walked out of the kitchen. Seeing Xuanwu sitting on the sofa, Fu Ling walked over and sat next to Xuanwu.

Xuanwu asked, "Something?" ”

Fu Ling nodded and said, "Yesterday was a bit messy, and when I came back, I remembered someone." ”

Fu Ling looked at Xuanwu and asked slowly, "Why hasn't that red fox followed us recently?" With her character, yesterday I was holding you, and she should have kicked me into the lake. ”

Xuanwu wanted to say that Fu Ling was thinking nonsense again, but he felt that this girl was now using her brain, and she was not easy to deceive, so she thought for a while and said, "She has been in a bit of trouble lately and has no time to follow us." ”

Fu Ling asked worriedly, "What happened to her?" ”
