There are water ghosts in the Beigang River, Guo Yan and the two of them know about it, as early as last year, they received a commission about the drowning person, and they encountered the water ghost during the investigation.

At that time, the water ghost was not really a ghost, but a spirit facing death.

For people in ancient times, rivers were very important survival resources, and the worship of river gods was inevitable, and spirits were born in the stage of worship of gods. The presence of the spirit can maintain the life of the local people to a great extent and even pray for their blessings.

But these are all in the past tense, and in modern society, these things are all classified as superstitions.

The spirit has gradually disappeared into the long river of history.

I don't know if the spirit of last year is still there. Nowadays, the water pollution is so serious, coupled with the fact that people no longer engage in god worship, the spirit has no value of existence, and this spirit can survive to this day, which is also a rare existence.

Lu Tingnan took out the incense from his backpack, lit it and inserted it in the stone crevice, recited a few incantations in his mouth, and the river under the bridge rippled.

It seems that this river spirit is still there.

As the waves faded, a bald head appeared in the middle of the river, with a pale face that looked like a ghost. It looked at Lu Tingnan's eyes very unkindly, as if it wanted to eat people.

It floated up from the river, only showing its head, and asked coldly, "What are you looking for me?" ”

"I just want to ask you, have you seen him?"

Guo Yan pointed at Fei and asked.

Fei was really startled when he saw Guo Yan suddenly talking to the river, and saw that the other party was pointing at him, a little confused, who was he talking to? Could it be that there is something in the river? He stared at the river a few times, but there was nothing.

"You're ...... Who to talk to? ”

Guo Yan ignored the inquiry of the dues.

The river spirit in the river glanced at Fei and shook his head.

"Haven't seen it yet? He and his classmates came here a few years ago to worship him, or you can ask the water ghosts in the water to see if they have seen them. ”

"Wait." He Ling did not refuse Guo Yan's proposal, and slowly sank into the water.

Fei asked curiously, "What were you talking to just now?" There can't really be anything in the river, right? ”

Guo Yan smiled, "I think it's better that you still don't know." ”

Fei swallowed his saliva and looked into the river curiously, but he didn't see anything.

Three minutes later, the river spirit resurfaced and said, "There was an old fellow who said that he had seen him and his friend ten years ago, when the two of them were here to worship, and the old fellow blessed them. ”

An old ghost blessed the two of them for worshipping their sons? Isn't that! A ghost's blessing has a hairy use, and you think you are a god.

"Let that old ghost come out."

Guo Yan was speechless in his heart, it was very likely that Gu Shenyuan's situation was caused by the blessing of this old ghost.

Some ghosts may not have any malice, and they may be blessed when they see good things, but ghosts are ghosts after all, and even if they are blessed, there are only two results, one is invalid, just silently blessed, and then nothing happens.

The other is a bit more terrifying, for example, a ghost wishes a newlywed couple a good old age, and the result is often the opposite of the blessing, and it is very likely that the newlyweds will be making a lot of noise within a few days.

The blessings of ghosts generally end well, just like never taking what a ghost hands you.

The old ghost appeared on the side of the river spirit after a while, the old ghost had a skeletal face, and there was a lot of sparse hair on his head.

Guo Yan asked, "Old ghost, did you really see him ten years ago?" ”

The old ghost glanced at Fei, and his jaw clicked, as if he was talking.

"Speak human words!" Guo Yan said speechlessly.

He Ling translated on the side, "He said that he had indeed seen it, and that it was him who came ten years ago, and there was another person. ”

"So you blessed them when they both bowed?"

Click, click, click.

"He said yes."

Guo Yan frowned, "What kind of blessing is it?" Is it a substantial blessing, or is it a silent blessing in the heart? ”

Click, click, click......

He Ling listened for a long time before he translated: "It is a substantial blessing, but he said that he did not have any malicious intent. He said that he had a brother who worshipped him like this before he died, and that he felt that such a brotherhood was rare, so he blessed them. ”

Guo Yan patted his head and asked, "Don't you know that the blessing of ghosts will have the opposite effect on people?" ”

The old ghost opened his mouth wide in surprise, and his jaw almost fell into the river, and he clicked it several times.

"He said he didn't know this, he was only thinking about the blessing at the time, he said that he can still feel the blessing now, and if he can, he can withdraw the original blessing now." ”

"The blessing is still there?" Guo Yan was surprised.

"Well, it's still there." The river spirit also seemed to see it.

"Then let's get rid of it."

The old ghost stretched out his finger, which was only a bone, and pointed at Fei on the edge of the river. Guo Yan saw that there was a strange aura on Fei's body and broke away and returned to the old ghost's body.

The old ghost's jaw moved, and there were a few clicks.

He Ling explained, "He said okay, the blessing has been withdrawn. ”

Guo Yan knew that the other party was not lying, after all, he had seen the situation just now, and something had indeed disappeared from Fei's body. Now that the blessing is gone, Gu Shenyuan should be able to come out of Fei's body.

But before doing this, Guo Yan has something to confirm.

After the river spirit and the old ghost left, the three of them returned to the bridge.

Fei felt that what happened just now was a little inexplicable, but in the spirit of less trouble, he didn't ask more.

Guo Yan lit a cigarette, handed Fei one by the way, and asked, "After you graduated from high school, how is your relationship with Gu Shenyuan?" ”

Fei was very surprised, he didn't expect the other party to ask about this.

"Relationship, generally, mainly because I went to college, I am far away from the school he reported to, and there is usually no opportunity to contact and communicate, so the relationship is a little bit weaker, and then after graduating from college and returning to Tongzhou, I have contacted him a few times, but since that time I have nothing to talk about with him, and I don't know why, I always feel that the relationship is much lighter than before."

"Sure enough." Guo Yan subconsciously said. The relationship between Fei and Gu Shenyuan has faded, probably because of the blessing of this old ghost.

"What really?" It's incomprehensible.

Guo Yan said: "It's nothing, when Gu Shenyuan comes out tonight, we should be able to help you solve it, and then Gu Shenyuan will be reincarnated, and you can return to normal life." ”

"Really!" Fei was surprised.

"Hmm."
