The goddess of the house agreed.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, two villagers found Lingling by the river and brought Lingling to the village chief's house.

I went into the house to discuss this with Lingling, I thought Lingling would refuse, but I didn't expect her to answer, but I saw a worried look in her eyes.

Lingling is a very smart girl, she said, just saw the villagers are aggressive, my dad and I have been defending her, we were forced to have no choice, so we agreed, otherwise, we can completely ignore the affairs here.

I reassured Lingling that as long as my dad was there, nothing would happen.

I chatted with Lingling in the room in the afternoon, Lingling didn't like to laugh, her face was always gloomy, she didn't go to school, since she came to Shangnan Village, she followed her mother and Uncle Li to fish, since the accident in the village, Man Chun and Man Gang often beat her, tortured her, didn't give her food, and even locked her in the room for a few days and didn't let her go out.

Especially Man Gang, who had a crooked mind about her and wanted to possess Lingling.

If it weren't for Uncle Li to protect Lingling, I'm afraid Lingling would suffer more, and Manchun threatened Lingling, if she told her about tormenting her, it would be even more tortured.

When I heard what happened to Lingling, my heart ached, and I took her hand and said, "In the future, I will protect you, and after the affairs of the village are dealt with, I will take you back to my house." ”

"I ...... I want you to be my daughter-in-law. ”

If you like someone, you have to say it.

"But...... I'm still young. A flush appeared on Lingling's face, "Although we just met, you and your uncle are very good to me, I am very grateful, I am willing to go with you, I don't want to stay in that home anymore, that home is hell, and the entire Shangnan Village is also hell." ”

"Silly girl." I said, "You are still young, I can wait for you, in fact, I am not big, five years older than you." ”

"Five years older is already big, okay." Ling Ling smiled, very good-looking, "In the future, my name will be Brother Ning Que." ”

I remembered my ex-girlfriend, I disliked my father's profession, and my family situation was not good, so I broke up with me, if Lingling was with me, it would be really a beautiful daughter-in-law for nothing, and I would definitely be good to her.

After dinner, my dad and I went back to the house, and my dad called Director Zhang and asked him to arrange for a boat to be in the river tomorrow night, not from the port of Shangnan Village, but from the abandoned port of the most remote Upper East Village, so as not to be discovered by anyone, and not to wear uniforms and pretend to be fishermen.

The next morning, the police returned Uncle Li's body, and Director Zhang called my dad and said that there were no more useful clues about the body.

Mrs. Fang arranged for the villagers to take the corpse away and cremate it at the port, and the villagers were very uncomfortable, more fearful, and Uncle Li's son Li Dong scattered the ashes into the river.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Fang prepared a wedding boat, a sedan chair, groom and bridal clothes, and brought a batch of white horses.

In the evening, Lingling was taken away by several women to make up her head, and at half past eleven in the evening, I rode on a white horse, surrounded by six children, to the pagoda.

Last time I had already visited the church, this time this link was saved, at half past eleven in the evening, I entered the sedan chair, and the villagers carried the sedan chair and tied the sedan chair firmly to the boat.

After everything was ready, at twelve o'clock, amid the prayers of the villagers, the boat slowly drifted towards the water against the wind.

After ten minutes, I couldn't see anything in the direction of the port, and a message came from my phone, and my dad said, let me go to the bottom of the ship to check.

I took off my clothes three or five times, leaving only a pair of trousers, and I wrapped the rope around my waist and handed it to the spirit, who would pull me up with the rope if there was anything unusual underwater.

I took a deep breath and looked at the deep water, feeling a little nervous.

I bit the flashlight in my mouth and jumped underwater.

The river was a little cool at night, and soon I got under the bottom of the boat, holding a flashlight in my right hand, and checked in the direction of the middle of the boat.

Underneath the bottom of the boat, everything was normal, no one chiseled the bottom of the boat, which also confirmed the previous inspection of me and my dad.

As soon as I got on the boat, I sent a message to my father informing me of the incident.

Before leaving, Director Zhang had already located my mobile phone to protect us secretly, and if there was anything abnormal, I would call Director Zhang for help.

And, as I was leaving, my father gave me a dagger to defend myself.

After I put on my clothes, I took Lingling's hand and stayed outside, there was wind on the river every night, I controlled the sails and prepared to go within two hundred meters, let Lingling paddle with the oars.

The spirit went to get the oars, but found ...... The oars are gone!

What's the situation?

When I left tonight, my dad also checked the oars, stuck in the buckle, firmly fixed, just before I went into the water, I also took a look, the oars were on the boat, I didn't pay attention when I got on the boat, I and Lingling walked out of the sedan chair, to change the direction of the boat, let Lingling go to get two oars, but the oars disappeared.

Hell yes!

Could it be that when I went into the water just now, Lingling had been tugging on the rope and staring at the water, and someone took the opportunity to take the oars?

But there was no one else but me and Lingling.

Ling Ling was also frightened, "Brother Ning Que, I'm afraid...... Is there really a river demon? ”

I said, "Don't be afraid, there are no river demons, with me, don't be afraid of anything." ”

I immediately sent a message to my dad, and my dad replied to me, telling me not to worry, not to be afraid, to go and check the place where the oars were placed, if there was any water.

The place where the oars are put is clean and there is no water, there is no wind and waves tonight, and the river water will not splash into the boat, I brought some water up when I got on the boat just now, not the place to put the oars.

The boat was very small, and if someone came out of the water and took away the oars, there would be water splashing on it, and there would be a sound, but Lingling said that he didn't hear any noise just now, and the boat shook a little just now, because I was under the water, and I had a rope tied around my waist, and when I moved, the boat would shake.

How could the oars disappear?

There were only two people on the boat just now, me and Lingling, could it be that Lingling threw the oars? No way, the spirit wouldn't do that.

Two words popped up in my mind: River Demon!

The silence on the river was terrible, without a sound, even more terrible than the wind and rain that night, as if it were the calm before the storm.

Lingling and I sat back to back on the boat, watching everything around the boat, not daring to relax in the slightest.

Lingling and I kept talking, and three hours passed, and the boat kept moving slowly on the water, and it seemed that nothing would happen tonight.

"Brother Ning Que, I want to go to the toilet." Lingling turned to me with an embarrassed expression.

I said, "Then you go to the sedan chair." ”

There is a plastic basin in the sedan chair, which is to solve the problem of us going to the toilet.

"Nope." Lingling said, "It's still outside, you go to the sedan chair, otherwise the stinking sedan chair will be noisy." ”

I didn't think much about it, went to the sedan chair, took out the basin and handed it to Lingling.

I was in the sedan chair, and after a while I heard the sound of Lingling peeing, and Lingling shouted, "Don't peek." ”

How could I do such a thing?

After a moment, I asked, "Is it over?" ”

There was no response from outside, so I said, "Are you a tuba or a trumpet?" ”

Still no one responded to me, I felt that something was wrong, I lifted the curtain and I saw that it was empty outside and there was no one on board!

I was shocked into a cold sweat, there was no spirit on the boat, and there was no basin, I grabbed a flashlight, crawled around the boat, looked at the nearby water, and soon found that at three o'clock, four or five meters away, there was a basin floating on the water.

Could it be that Lingling has fallen into the water!

Why don't I hear any noises or movements? Lingling's water properties are very good, how could it disappear all of a sudden?

I climbed on the boat gang and stared at the basin on the river, there was nothing unusual in the water!

In a hurry, I hurriedly pressed Director Zhang's phone, the phone was connected, and I was about to speak, when suddenly, a wet human head appeared in front of me, it was Lingling!

Lingling grinned at me, and a pair of miserable white hands grabbed my arm, and with a strong force pulled me straight off the boat.

It was so sudden that I was unprepared and fell into the water.

I floated my hands and slid towards the water, and when I saw my head out of the water, all of a sudden, my right foot was grabbed by something on the water's surface, and my body was uncontrollable and sank suddenly!

I was shocked, held my breath, and tried my best to swim upstream, but I couldn't shake off what was grabbing my leg, and I was about to surface, and I was pressed down by a strong force.

My leg looks like it's got tangled in something!

In the dim water, I saw a white shadow pulling my feet below, long black hair fluttering in the water, and a fair face facing me. It turned out to be-
