Hearing Little Apple's obviously bizarre statement, Murong Cao, who had not yet recovered from the incident in Blazing Yang Village, was a little crying and laughing.

"You're superstitious here, too?"

The word "also", Xiao Apple doesn't understand, but Yang Muqing is also a little helpless.

"It's not superstition, it's true, the day after Qingzhu's death, the people in the town saw it, and there was a big black Jiao swimming in the pool."

Little Apple's brow furrowed tightly, as if he had some lingering palpitations.

There are black Jiao in the pool, isn't that a strange story?

Murong Cao stood up, tugged at Yang Muqing's sleeve, cautiously moved two steps forward, leaned over and looked at the secluded pool, the water was deep and turquoise, there were no waves, and there was not even a single fish swimming.

"Have you seen the black Jiao?"

She asked Yang Muqing, since she slowly set foot in the Demon Dao of the Ghost Domain, she began to understand one thing - seeing is not necessarily believing, and many times, what she can't see doesn't mean that others can't see it.

Yang Muqing shook his head, he really didn't see anything.

There is nothing unusual about this secluded pool, and it stands to reason that there have been a lot of deaths recently, and there should be some resentment wandering around the Yin Spirit, but this place is as clean as if there have been no accidents or deaths.

This unusual calmness seemed a little abnormal, but he couldn't say what the anomaly was for the time being.

"I saw it that day, and then it was gone."

Little Apple argued in a whisper, her two little hands twisting her braids and biting her lower lip with her teeth, lest they not believe it.

Murong Cao patted her on the shoulder, thought about it, and explained.

"We don't suspect you, we just want to figure out the whole thing, we can't just listen to what you say, but we need to find the truth ourselves."

Little Apple nodded vigorously, acting like the most obedient student in the school.

"Did your brother tell you about the last competition?"

"He didn't say anything, but I knew it." Little Apple raised her head, her eyes sparkling, revealing the child's clarity and helplessness, "Because on that day, I was also there, and I hid in that tree, my brother knows." ”

Little Apple pointed to a large banyan tree by the pool.

Looking at the leafy appearance, there is really no problem in covering a single thin little girl.

"I can't see you're so good at climbing trees."

Murong Cao gave a heartfelt admiration, although he was domineering when he was a child, he really never did anything like climbing trees and catching birds.

Little Apple touched her head and smiled sheepishly.

"Then you tell everything you see, don't miss a single detail, just tell the truth."

Murong Cao solemnly explained.

"That competition was private, not the usual public competition, they had already competed that month, and I don't know why they had to compete."

"My brother and Qingzhu only told the brother who played the best, I secretly followed the one who had come out, the content of their competition that day was actually very simple, lost a thing into the pool, and then Qingzhu and my brother went into the water, whoever picks it up first wins."

"They are very good in water, usually swim around in the big river, more powerful than fish, my brother often comes to the black Jiaotan to take a bath, I thought the competition would end soon, but, my brother came up, Qingzhu didn't come up, the big guy didn't take it seriously at the time, because Qingzhu was very good at holding his breath, thinking that he might lose the competition, so he didn't want to come out for the time being, my brother took his two brothers first."

"I was in the tree, and I didn't want to be found by them, so I wanted to wait, but after waiting for a long time, I didn't see the green pillar, and when his two began to get anxious, they shouted a few times into the pool, but no one answered, so they went into the water to find it, and then they caught the green pillar."

"According to our old method, they carried the green pillar upside down and ran around the black Jiaotan, trying to make him spit out the water he swallowed and come back to his senses, but it was useless, the green pillar did not wake up again, I was a little afraid, so I climbed down the tree and secretly went home."

"After my brother knew that Qingzhu died like this, he became even less talkative, and even I didn't care about it, only on the day when Qingzhu was buried, he knelt alone by the pond for most of the day, not eating or drinking, I couldn't persuade him. Then, Wang Qiang, Li Yuan, Zeng Zhilin, and Tang Xiaowei died in the pool one after another, and when they died, they all wore new red clothes, and the time was about midnight, because they were all found the next morning. ”

"I have been guarding my brother these nights, not daring to let myself fall asleep, he has been like a demon at night to push the door out, I have stopped him, I know that if I don't stop him, he will die."

Little Apple began to sobble as she spoke, her shoulders twitching.

"My parents are long gone, and I am just my brother's relative, I can't let him die like them! What should I do if he dies? ”

Hearing this, Murong Cao and Yang Muqing were a little moved, this little girl's precociousness and vigilance are not unreasonable. It's no wonder that she writes to the Soul Asking House like a life-saving straw, and then waits for someone to come every day.

"Now my brother can't go out, although I saw Hei Jiao that time, I won't count people's lives on my brother's head, but the source of this matter is still the competition between my brother and Qingzhu, those who died of children, it's not good to find Qingzhu's grandmother's bad luck, for a while, they came to my door every day to scold, not to mention how ugly the scolding is, and now the people in the town don't come here anymore, I'm afraid that I will accidentally provoke the cannibalistic monsters in the Black Jiaotan."

"If Hei Jiao wants to harm people, it should be swallowed in one bite, how can he play these tricks? And put on new clothes for the children, Muqing, do you think it's possible? Could it be that the black Jiao has become a spirit and has shown supernatural powers? ”

In fact, as far as Murong Cao's heart is concerned, whether there is a black Jiao, she has reservations, or is it a big black python of a strange breed?

"I'll go into the water and see."

Yang Muqing put down his bag, took off his coat, and jumped into the pool without waiting for Murong Cao's exit to stop him.

Little Apple first exclaimed, and then cried out in fear, very worried that the big brother would die because of his own reasons.

"Little Apple, don't cry, he'll be fine."

Murong Cao hugged the crying little girl into his arms, his eyes stared at the place where Yang Muqing's figure disappeared, there was really not much worry in his heart, Yang Muqing's words, most of the time, he could still be trusted, and if he was not nine points sure, he would not go into the water.

As for the remaining accidents, not everyone has "luck" to encounter them.
