Seeing that he was about to count to three, Xiao Wanwan, who had not spoken, suddenly said: This kind of thing, you still have to be voluntary, since he doesn't like me, don't force him. Xiao Wanwan spoke, a blush appeared on his face, a little intoxicating.

Yuan Zhen looked at Xiao Wanwan and said: "You have to think about it, you are not a living person now, if you marry Zhang Yan, you will be able to return to the yang." And Zhang Yan also depends on you to save his life. ”

Xiao Wanwan's eyes looked at me, and there was softness between her eyebrows.

It's not that I don't want to be responsible for Xiao Wanwan, I thought about it for a while, and said to Yuan Zhen: "Master, can you let me meet with her first, and then make a decision?" And my grandfather's life and death are still uncertain. ”

Yuan Zhen waved his hand and said disgustedly, give you a daughter-in-law like a flower and jade, and hesitate so much.

Yuan Zhen sighed and said, let's go.

I caught up and asked Yuan Zhen where he was going?

Yuan Zhen said, of course it's to save your grandfather, call your daughter-in-law over.

I hummed and called Xiao Wanwan. Xiao Wanwan and I were a few steps behind Yuan Zhen, and in this regard, I asked the doubts I had always had in my heart: "Xiao Wanwan, do you remember the black bracelet I gave you that night?" ”

Xiao Wanwan was silent and said, "It's a little impressive, but it's not with me now." ”

"Where?" I hurriedly asked, my grandfather had specially asked me to find Xiao Wanwan and get the bracelet back.

Xiao Wanwan's face was struggling, and she said, "I don't know, it seems to have been taken away." ”

I was about to ask something, but Yuan Zhen suddenly interrupted me and said, "Then do you remember who brought your soul to Turtle Ridge?" Remember how you died? ”

Xiao Wanwan's face was dazed, and after a pause, he said: "I seem to have a dream, in the dream I was taken to the river, I remember that I obviously got on the boat, but when I got to the middle of the river, the boat was gone, I fell into the water, kept calling, and then I saw someone holding a bamboo pole towards me, I reached out and grabbed it, got on the boat, I don't remember what happened next." ”

Dream of getting on board? How do I sound so mysterious?

Yuan Zhen didn't ask deeply, so he said, "Girl, I'll take you to see the person who pulled you up with a bamboo pole later." ”

Xiao Wanwan looked puzzled, but she didn't ask too much.

We rushed home, it was almost early in the morning, people in the countryside generally went to bed early, and it was dark everywhere when we entered the village, but after walking a few steps, I saw that the lights were bright not far away, and I couldn't help but look a few more times, it seemed that the location was the river temple in the village.

The people in the village generally don't go to the river temple if they have nothing to do, unless it's a great god, they will gather people.

I thought to myself that nothing would happen, so I called Yuan Zhen and said, "Master, there seems to be an accident over there in the River Temple." ”

Yuan Zhen said I know, don't worry about it for now, and then talk about it when you go home.

I hummed, now I can say that I trust Yuan Zhen very much, when I got home, I turned on the light, first looked at the house, to make sure that no one else had come in, and then I went to my grandfather's bedroom, and found that my grandfather was lying on the bed unharmed, and I was relieved.

I was just about to get close to the bed, but Yuan Zhen grabbed me and said don't worry.

I glanced at Yuan Zhen suspiciously, Xiao Wanwan didn't say anything, and stood beside me obediently.

Yuan Zhen walked towards my grandfather, squatted down in front of the bed, looked at it for a few seconds, and then said to me, "Zhang Yan, you go and fetch me a basin of water." ”

I responded, hurriedly ran out, after the water, I brought it to Yuan Zhen, Yuan Zhen put his hand in the basin, just touched it, I felt that the water seemed to become boiling, he wet his hands, and sprinkled the water drops in front of his grandfather's bed, and a strange scene soon appeared, only to see a few more footprints on the ground.

And the footprints are still very clear.

My heart tightened and I said, "Has anyone been here?" Is my grandpa okay then? ”

Yuan Zhen rubbed the shoe prints on white paper, looked at his grandfather, and said, "It's okay." Then he said to Xiao Wanwan: "Girl, can you come and see if he fished you up from the river?" ”

Xiao Wanwan approached, looked at it, and said yes.

"Are you sure?" Yuan Zhen asked.

"Sure."

"Did he take your soul away?" Yuan Zhen continued to ask.

Xiao Wanwan said: "I have to take another look." ”

Yuan Zhen stepped aside and motioned for Xiao to come in the evening, just watch. Xiao looked at the time for a while in the evening and said, "It's him." ”

I listened and felt that something was wrong, so I asked Yuan Zhen, "Master, what do you mean by what you say?" ”

Yuan Zhen was not in a hurry, came to the table and sat down, and then said lightly: "These people who drown in the river are generally not good for reincarnation, so they will become water ghosts, and ask people to go into the water so that they can find a replacement for the dead ghosts." Not only this Yellow River, the number of people who drown every year is countless, and the souls are gathering more and more, so there are not so many ghosts for the dead, so a set of order has also been formed in this river, with river gods, water ghosts, in charge of the souls in the water, so as not to prevent them from coming to the world to make trouble. Since the implementation of this order, the river and the world have been quiet and safe for a long time, with this order, if someone wants to take the soul from the river, they must go through the permission of the water and river god, Zhang Yan, do you understand what I said? ”

"Do you mean that my grandfather took Xiao Wanwan's soul away from the river, was it allowed by the river god? But master, isn't the river god already trapped by you in the Eight Miles of the Dead King? I asked the doubts in my heart in one breath.

And does my grandfather have the ability to do this? Let the river god give face.

Yuan Zhen smiled: "Actually, there is another possibility, that is, the river god took away the soul himself. ”

The more I listened, the more confused I became, and I had a feeling that I didn't know where to start. I moved my eyes to Xiao Wanwan, but Xiao Wanwan was still standing at the head of my grandfather's bed.

As Yuan Zhen spoke, he took out the blank paper, and there were footprints on it, and at a glance, he knew that the footprints were left by a man. Yuan Zhen said: "If you find the owner of this footprint, you may find the river god." ”

I didn't understand it for a while, so I asked Yuan Zhen, "Then can you wake up my grandfather now?" ”

Yuan Zhen patted the table and said, "The time hasn't come yet, maybe your grandfather will wake up when you find the river god." After Yuan Zhen finished speaking, a voice suddenly came: "I am the river god, acquaintance, you hurry up and let me go." ”

The voice came from the Dead King Bali.

"Noise." After speaking, Yuan Zhen took out a piece of yellow paper from his sleeve and pasted it on the Eighth King of Death, and soon became quiet.

I asked Yuan Zhen, "Isn't he the river god?" ”

Yuan Zhen got up and said: "That's because he thought he was the god of the river, and someone made a trick and found a stand-in." Sadly, he didn't know it himself. ”

My eyes fell on the white paper, and there seemed to be a missing piece of the left footprint at the heel of the left footprint.

I didn't understand what Yuan Zhen said, so I simply asked what to do next?

Yuan Zhen said: "Aren't you going to the River Temple to see the excitement?" You can go now. ”

I looked at Yuan Zhen in surprise, and Yuan Zhen said, go, your grandfather, I will help you watch.

I answered, and said what about Xiao Wanwan? Yuan Zhen said, you can also take her along. I thought about it, but I forgot it, I went out to the river temple, and when I arrived, I found that there was a lot of people talking about something.

I stepped forward and saw the second grandfather with a black face, and he continued: "This is the shame of our Zhangjia Village, the statue of the river god has been smashed, we must catch the murderer." ”

Everyone seemed very excited, shouting that they wanted to catch the murderer.

I was very surprised, who dared to smash the statue of the river temple. smashed the river temple, if the river god knew, he wouldn't let their family die!

I moved to the second grandfather and called him. The second grandfather's face was not good-looking, and he asked me why I came?

I said that if there are many people here, I will come and take a look, and I asked him in a suppressed voice, when was the statue of the river god smashed?

The second grandfather said that he didn't know the specific time, but the second stunned man in the village told us.

I saw the second stunned man, he sat on the pillar in front of the river temple, staring at everyone blankly, the second stunned man was born a little stupid, his brain is not bright, he usually does not work, he relies on the people in the village to give him something to eat.

It may be that the second stunned man found that I was also looking at him, so he looked at me and smiled stupidly.

I responded politely.

The second grandfather pulled me aside and said, "How is your grandfather?" Can Master Yuan revive your grandfather? ”
