Chapter 18: Floating Corpses

Even though it's summer, the cold wind in the evening is still a little cool.

No, I don't think it's the wind.

When I first left the dormitory, I felt the breeze, but I still felt the summer heat.

And when we walked to the edge of the pond, we felt a chill.

It's not like the cold feeling that the wind blows out, it's more like ...... Lin Yuting's kind of coldness.

As I got closer to the place where I saw the lotus flowers during the day, my heart became apprehensive.

When I think about it, I always feel that there is nothing to be afraid of a ghost.

But at this time, when I was about to see it, my heart was beating.

That's the hell!

And it's not an ordinary ghost, the human head on the lotus flower, it's enough to infiltrate people just thinking about it.

Now I want to see it, but I'm afraid to see it, and my mood is really tangled.

When Lin Yuting saw my appearance, she smiled and said, "What, are you afraid?" ”

I hurriedly said, "I'm not afraid, if I'm afraid, who will protect you?" ”

"Pretending again, it's still like this!"

I suddenly remembered that I had said this when I met her for the first time the day before yesterday.

But it turned out that I couldn't protect her.

I scratched my head and laughed dryly.

I continued to walk forward, getting closer and closer to the lotus flower, and finally came to a place where I could see the lotus flower clearly.

I took Lin Yuting's hand, felt a burst of coldness, held back my fear, and looked towards the lotus.

At first glance, I didn't see a human head.

I let out a long sigh.

Then I searched for it among the lotus flowers.

However, after I scanned for a long time, I still found nothing.

This piece is a delicate and moving lotus, where is there any head?

I said, "Isn't that ghost coming out?" ”

Lin Yuting shook her head, and said with a heavy face: "Don't you feel that this atmosphere is a little wrong?" ”

When I think about it, it's true.

What's wrong......

After a little thought, I finally figured out what the problem was.

It's so quiet here!

Yes, silence is normal, but in this place, it seems weird to be quiet like this!

In the pond, there are fish, and in this hot summer, it is common for fish to come out of the water and spit out two bubbles.

There are frogs on the edge of this pond, and if it rains, the frogs will chirp all night.

In the trees by this pond, there are cicadas and owls......

However, at this moment, these things that should have emitted some movement did not move at all.

No chirps, no sound.

It's as calm as a blank sheet of paper.

This kind of silence is weird!

I listened closely, and I almost heard my own heartbeat, but I still couldn't hear a single murmur.

Just then, I heard the sound of water.

It's like the sound of a carp shutting up, stirring the surface of the water.

I looked into the pond, but I didn't see any fish jumping up.

Instead, I saw a dark shadow!

The shadow was far away from me, in the middle of the pond.

I couldn't see much from this distance, and it felt like a swimmer.

It's just that the man's body doesn't seem to rise and fall, and there is no movement of his arms paddling.

But it's more like ...... Floating on the surface of the water.

Like a floating corpse!

I whispered to Lin Yuting, "That...... Is it a human or a ghost? ”

Lin Yuting made a silent gesture and motioned for me to keep silent and continue reading.

I cured myself and crouched down cautiously, hiding in the weeds on the side of the path, staring closely at the dark figure.

The dark shadow was drifting towards me, slowly, but after a few minutes I could see that it had made a large block.

And now, I'm seeing a little bit more clearly.

The thing was indeed humanoid, that is, whether it was dead or alive, it was a person.

As I got closer and closer, until I was still more than twenty meters away, I could see clearly.

That...... It seems to be a woman.

Her hair was long, but it was all hanging down in the water.

She was face down, lying on the water, unable to see her face at all.

At this moment, I can be sure that it is either a corpse or a ghost!

If he were alive, he would have suffocated to death.

She's still drifting this way, and I'm scared of her sudden head and want her to feel her head up.

If she can move, then she must be a ghost.

Lin Yuting said that not everyone can become a ghost when they die.

Moreover, when most people die, they will be picked up by the ghost at that time, and there is no chance to stay in the yang world at all.

Therefore, most of the ghosts in the world are unjust souls who have died horizontally, or lonely souls and wild ghosts.

If this one is really a ghost, I'm really not sure I can deal with it.

Just with the one-day Dao technique I just learned, a few spells that I can't memorize, and a bunch of soul fixing talismans that are drawn crookedly?

If it were that simple to catch ghosts, there would have been no ghosts in this world a long time ago.

I continued to watch the movement of the floating corpse.

I saw that she floated to the lotus lace, and then the body of the floating corpse sank into the water little by little, and soon, only one head was exposed on the water!

The hair on the head was long and wet, completely obscuring the face.

At this time, the head was still drifting towards the lotus flower.

When it finally stopped in the lotus flower, I understood.

This is the ghost Deng Juan saw last night!

Her body was underwater at this time, with only one head protruding from the water, and her head was floating among the lotus flowers, which at first glance really looked like it was blooming in the middle of a flower.

Although we know the principle of this human head, what should we do next?

It's a shout: Oh, the demon is gone!

But they didn't leave at all.

Or say: Evil ghosts, view treasures!

I don't have a magic weapon, and second, I'm not sure it's a demon.

Because of the relationship between Lin Yuting around me, I believe that good and evil are equal in the world of ghosts, and it is impossible to meet one of them casually.

Moreover, I don't want to turn myself into a character like Fahai, regardless of whether it is indiscriminate or not, and only recognize demon hunting.

What I need is a ghost pill, and this premise is to catch evil ghosts!

I didn't have an idea, so I had to keep reading.

The female ghost was very leisurely, and stopped there.

After a while, the water surface was agitated, her hair parted little by little, and her face was revealed little by little.

When I could see her face completely, I could see a pair of large, round eyes.

Those eyes were terrifying, and I think anyone who saw them would think that they were looking at themselves!

I squatted for a long time, and my legs were already a little numb.

But the female ghost showed no signs of leaving, and I didn't have the courage to stand up and have a showdown with her right now.

So, I can only confront her in secret.

I glanced at Lin Yuting, wanting to see what she had in mind.

Who knows, I just looked at her, but I realized that her expression was not quite right!

Her face was already pale, but now her face was even paler in the moonlight. A pair of small fists clenched tightly, as if a fury was about to burst out.

I was about to ask her what was wrong.

But suddenly I heard a piercing sound, in this strange silence, like lightning that pierced the night sky, and broke this weirdness at once.

Damn, it's my phone again!

It doesn't matter who called, what matters is that the female ghost in the pond has been alarmed!

I looked at her eyes that were already looking this way to me.

I saw that I couldn't hide anymore, so I just stood up!
