"The front is Wang Laohan's home, but he is a little withdrawn, I hope you can forgive me." The village chief led the way in front and said slowly.

This so-called Wang Laohan is a corpse digger in the Yangtze River, commonly known as a water ghost.

It is some people who have been drowned in the water, and ordinary people do not dare to do anything to their corpses, because their huge resentment will turn them into powerful ghosts in the water, so as to find someone to replace them.

In this way, a new generation of professions was born, and that was the corpse diggers, who floated in the water every day. They look for some drowned corpses, and if they come across them, they will use their special equipment to retrieve them.

After the certification of the family, the corpse collector will be given some reward money in the end, and then the corpse in the family will be brought home.

"Now our village, that is, Wang Laohan, is fishing for corpses here!" The village chief sighed, as the saying goes, often walking by the river, how can there be shoes that don't get wet.

Almost every year in the village, some people drown, but no young people are willing to inherit this craft in these years, so until now, all expectations are placed on Wang Laohan.

"Was he the first to see the coffin?"

Lin Xiao asked the village chief, since this old man Wang can go out to retrieve the corpse, it means that he should be the first person to meet.

"Yes, yes, don't say it, I don't know why, after encountering that coffin, Wang Laohan never went into the water to fish for people again. The corpses on the surface of the river are still a little stinky. He shook his head bitterly and continued: "Of course, there are some bold people in our village. But after they got into the water, they all lost their tracks. ”

In the blink of an eye, several people came to Wang Laohan's house, and only saw a house located in the northernmost part of the village.

This house is a bit of a downbeat in comparison, and there are weeds growing on both sides of the courtyard, indicating that the owner basically does not clean the house.

"Wang Laohan, someone from the government has come."

After shouting these words, the village chief pushed open the door and led Lin Xiao and a few people to walk in slowly.

After entering the gate, Lin Xiao's eyes were greeted by an old man over sixty years old, the wrinkles on his face made him vicissitudes of life, raised his head and glanced at Lin Xiao and his party, he didn't care, lowered his head and fiddled with the pole in his hand.

The pole in his hand had an iron steel ring at the very front, which was wrapped in a bright red cloth, which looked a little festive, but when he looked at the pole, it felt a little eerie.

Because the wooden pole was carved with pitch-black runes, and the runes were wrapped around the pole like a giant python, which was in stark contrast to the red cloth.

"Wang Laohan, this is the person in the government, looking for you to find out some information." patted Wang Laohan on the shoulder, and the village chief pointed at Lin Xiao and said.

Lin Xiao shrugged his shoulders, he was not from the government, but his eyes kept staring at the wooden pole in front of him, because he actually felt a faint resentment on it.

It seems that this red cloth is the medium to block resentment, but what are those black spells in the back?

If this old man met those decent people, he would definitely think that the wooden pole in his hand was a cult thing.

"I said, it's impossible for me to go into the water again, even if the county magistrate comes, my answer is still the same." After saying this, Wang Laohan continued to wipe the pole in his hand, as if there was nothing else in his eyes.

"This ......"

The village chief was a little embarrassed, but he also knew Wang Laohan's temper, since he decided something, it would definitely not change, and glanced at Tang Meng.

"Village chief, since we have arrived here, then I won't trouble you, we will ask this old man about the next things."

Hearing this, the village chief glanced at Wang Laohan, he was afraid that this upright man would offend these people in the government.

"Don't worry, we're just asking about something, and we're not going to do anything out of the ordinary." Tang Meng knew what the village chief was worried about and explained.

"Okay, okay then, let's go over and eat at noon, I'll ask my family to cook some food for you." After speaking, he turned to Wang Laohan and said, "Wang Laohan, tell the government everything you know." ”

After telling Wang Laohan a few words, the village chief slowly left here.

There was some silence in the courtyard, and Lin Xiao and the three of them looked at Wang Laohan in front of them, only to see that he seemed to be looking at the pole like a child.

"Uncle, are we here to find out what happened in the Yangtze River these days?" Chen Huan took the lead in breaking the calm, walked to Wang Laohan's side and asked.

As soon as the words fell, I saw that Wang Laohan's cloudy eyes seemed to light up, but they quickly returned to normal.

"Get out of here, don't meddle in this matter, or I'm afraid your life will be left behind."

After being silent for a long time, Wang Laohan finally said lightly, and then glanced at Tang Meng and said, "A girl, it's not good to go home with the child, why do you come out to provoke these things?" ”

After Tang Meng heard this, his face suddenly turned red, what's wrong with the woman, why is this old man so corrupt, and he is still looking at people in the old society.

One sentence made Lin Xiao laugh, he didn't expect this old man to speak too violently, and he actually made Tang Meng deflated by one sentence.

And Chen Huan looked like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, it looked very funny, and when Tang Meng turned around, Chen Huan quickly put his palm to his mouth and hid the smile on his face.

"Uncle, don't look down on women, you must know that the world has changed now, and it is not the same as before."

Rolling his eyes, Tang Meng was eager to strangle Lin Xiao now, and dared to make fun of her, it seemed that he was really impatient with life.

"I don't care what = new society, or old society. But you really don't want to meddle in this matter anymore, several people have already died. ”

With a sigh, Wang Laohan took out a box of inferior cigarettes from his clothes, put it to his mouth and lit it.

The cigarette looked a little vicissitudes, and his eyes were firmly looking at the direction of the Yangtze River, as if there was something in it that frightened him.

"Old man, you have to believe us, we are here to solve this matter, not to make trouble." Lin Xiao suddenly stopped laughing and said solemnly.

Because when he came here, he had already sensed a kind of resentment that was rushing to the sky, and if he allowed this resentment to be stored for too long, I was afraid that a plague would occur around the Yangtze River.

If the ghost coffin hadn't disappeared when they came, it would have been impossible for Lin Xiao and them to come here to find this old man Wang.

After all, Wang Laohan was the first person to discover the ghost coffin, so in his memory, he will definitely be more detailed about the place when the ghost coffin appeared.

"You'd better hurry up, you don't have to interfere in this matter, besides, the ghost coffin is gone."

Wang Laohan didn't change his mind because of Lin Xiao's solemn tone, he didn't want to attract people into the Yangtze River because of this ghost coffin.

"Don't you know what's going on, and if the ghost coffin reappears, who doesn't know what will happen?"

Lin Xiao's face suddenly became cold, because if this matter could be resolved, it would be a great transformation.

It's not because of anything else, it's the cause and effect that will benefit him immensely.

"It seems that you still don't know much about this, it was a ghost coffin that appeared hundreds of years ago, in my memory, my fathers talked about it, not to mention us ordinary people!" Wang Laohan sighed, not that he didn't want to care, but that he was really powerless.

That's why he didn't go out to retrieve corpses for everyone, and there were already many people in this village who had a lot of opinions about him.

Although he also wanted to help the villagers recover the bodies, he did not dare to make this decision, because he did not know what would happen if he rushed into the water, and who would be able to control the ghost coffin if he angered him.

"Hehe, it turned out that I was worried about our safety, thank you!" Lin Xiao bowed deeply, but when he raised his head, a glimmer of golden light flowed in his eyes.

Suddenly, the momentum of Lin Xiao's body changed suddenly, and the air around him was also whirrel with his momentum.

Wang Laohan, who was attracted by this momentum, raised his head in horror, looking at Lin Xiao's movements in front of him, and there was a frenzy in his eyes.

I saw Lin Xiao raise his middle finger, and a faint spiritual light wrapped around his palm, constantly releasing bright light.

"Five Thunder Spells, Sickness."

With a big drink, the spiritual light on Lin Xiao's palm suddenly exploded, and he rushed directly to the nearest big tree.

Whoosh.

With a flash of inspiration, the spiritual light burst out from Lin Xiao's hand, pointed directly at the big tree, and hit the big tree in an instant.

Bang......

There was an explosion, and smoke came out of the tree, and when the smoke disappeared, I saw that the tree with a diameter of about 50 centimeters was actually penetrated by Lin Xiao.

"You ......" Wang Laohan pointed at Lin Xiao and couldn't speak, but his eyes were full of hope.

"Lin Xiao, how can you ...... here?"

Tang Meng was a little annoyed, because cultivators like them were not known to the general public, and if they were known by ordinary people, they would definitely cause him to fall into a panic.

"You're a cultivator!"

Wang Laohan shouted, his finger pointing in Lin Xiao's direction trembling, he had heard of cultivators from his father's mouth.

The reason why he didn't act was to wait for the cultivators to solve the matter.

Because he didn't know where the cultivator was, but he could guess that if a practitioner heard about it, he would definitely come here.

Poof!

The old man knelt directly on the ground, and his kneeling surprised everyone.

"This little brother, save us, if you don't come again, I'm afraid we will be full of corpses and become plagued."

Tang Meng quickly came to the old man's side, helped the old man up, and glanced at Lin Xiao who was in a daze.

"Uncle, don't worry, the country already knows about the matter here, so it sent us here to solve it."

The old man didn't seem to believe Tang Meng, because he didn't see Tang Meng's ability, but instead looked at Lin Xiao with a look of hope, hoping that he would give an answer.

"Don't worry, this person's skills are much higher than mine, and since we are here, we will definitely solve it."

Hearing this, Wang Laohan noticed Tang Meng, then nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll take you there."
