It was almost noon when Mantou returned to Mingtong Village, and brought back three gas masks, and it seemed that he was going to act with me in the evening. After lunch. The three of us went back to the villa, and then followed the lake tour group arranged by the villa to take a boat to the water for a circle.

The tour guide of the resort will also say something about the water mother, but what she said is completely different versions of what Old Man Xu said, which probably means that a long, long time ago, there was a woman in the village, her child unfortunately fell into the water and drowned, she had to go to the lake every day to find it, and finally she turned into a fish.

The guide's words didn't have much reference value, I actually just wanted to see if there was anything unusual in the lake, such as whether there was a black fog under the water that ordinary people couldn't see.

However, after a circle, the gain is completely zero. So after coming back from a circle, I went to find Old Man Xu again, and while drinking tea, I talked to him about the second boy of the Guan family and the nine people who died more than 30 years ago.

People talk a lot, and they like to gossip from all over the world. Old man Xu is like this. I only wanted to know about the Guan family, but he told me about the "history" of Mingtong Village.

It is said that Mingtong Village had a good life in the fifth and sixth decades. At that time, the gap between the rich and the poor was not large, in the words of the old man Xu, the poor ate good things once a year, and the rich ate good things once a month.

Later, it was the reform and opening up and the strengthening of urban and rural construction, and gradually Mingtong Village began to be lonely, and people gradually left the village to develop in the town. It was not until the last few years that Mingtong Village began to engage in tourism, and the village slowly regained its popularity.

Old man Xu also deliberately emphasized that the "popularity" he said did not mean popular, but the meaning expressed by the word itself. Because more than ten years ago, the whole village was lifeless, except for a few large fish farmers in the village who were willing to stay in the village, everyone else could go. For a while, there were no young people even in the village.

After talking about the development trajectory of the village, Old Man Xu finally mentioned the nine people who had drowned mysteriously in the past eight years. He said that the nine people have a good relationship with Guan Erxiao, in the past, Guan Erxiao came back from fishing and liked to call a lot of people to his house to push Pai Gow together, at that time the win or loss was a few cigarettes and a few fish, not moving money at all, everyone was just entertainment so it couldn't hurt feelings.

Seven years after Guan Erxiao's death, the village began to decline, and the people in the village began to go out one after another. Mother Shui's murder started at this time, and she killed these nine people who had a good relationship with the second boy of the Guan family.

If Mother Water has spirituality and will retaliate and kill, this thing makes sense, but the gap between the past few years made me a little incomprehensible, and I also told Old Man Xu this question.

Old man Xu didn't say why, but it also made him turn the topic back to the drowning case in the village, saying that the four murders that occurred this year were all children of people who had left Mingtong Village before.

Going around and around, the key point of the problem seems to be that Guan Erxiao, who caught Mother Shui, back then, so I asked if there were any descendants of Guan Erxiao, or other relatives or something.

Old man Xu shook his head and said: "His wife and children are all dead, just an elder brother, but he left the village many years ago, and he has never come back since. ”

"What about the grave of Guan Erxiao?" I asked again.

"There is a grave, but one of his legs is buried inside, but his son and wife have left all the corpses, and the grave is in the west of the village, so it is a long way to go. Why do you care about this? ”

"It's nothing, it's just curiosity." I gave a perfunctory remark to the old man, and he didn't ask again, but there seemed to be some change in his eyes, as if he was beginning to be wary of me. I wondered why he wasn't dead, but now he's reacting to me, which obviously shows him something.

"I said, Lao Xu, are you afraid of something?" I asked tentatively.

Old man Xu hurriedly shook his head, and then said with a smile: "What will I be afraid of, the person who has half his legs in the coffin." ”

"Well, since you're not afraid of anything, I'm not afraid of offending you. You said that the people who had a good relationship with Guan Erxiao back then died, why did you be the only one who survived? Because are you devout to Mother Water? I asked straight to the point.

"This ...... I think it may be because I have been persuading Guan Er Xiao not to sell my mother, or it may be because I have accumulated virtue in my last life, who knows, hahaha......" Old man Xu laughed, his expression looked a little unnatural.

I can tell that he is hiding something, just like the rest of the village is silent about Mother Water, but I don't plan to dwell on this matter, maybe Mother Water is a taboo in the village, and everyone doesn't want to get into trouble.

After the chat with Old Man Xu, I mentioned a proposal to Wang Fugui and asked him to find out the whereabouts of the eldest brother of the Guan family, if the people in the village are unwilling to speak, I think maybe the eldest brother of the Guan family will be willing to talk more, after all, he has been away from the village for many years, and the deceased are all centered on his younger brother and then radiated outward.

Wang Fugui nodded in agreement, and immediately arranged for someone to investigate.

After dark, the three of us prepared lighting tools, took gas masks, and after leaving the resort, we set off again to the former residence of the second son of the Guan family at the entrance of the village.

Mingtong Village is indeed a village as its name suggests, and at night the whole village is brightly lit, with a long list of red lanterns hanging in the resort, and lights hanging at the doors of various hotels and restaurants, plus the light of the moon, even if you walk to the entrance of the village, the surroundings are very bright.

The door was unlocked when I left in the morning, but this time I pushed it and the door opened.

The steamed bun is not actually a gas mask in the strict sense, it is not connected to an oxygen tank, it is just a mask used to block the smell, this thing is very lightweight, you can wear it at any time when you want to use it, so I decided not to wear it yet, which allows me to more intuitively judge when the smell comes.

The house was in the same condition as it was during the day, and there was no smell or sound.

I tentatively shouted "Is there anyone" as soon as my voice fell, and as soon as my voice fell, there was a clatter from the second floor, and then the air in the room began to cool down, and the breath from my mouth turned into a white mist, along with the stench that had almost choked me to death in the morning.

I quickly put on the mask and quickly ran to the innermost bathroom on the second floor.

The door of the bathroom was completely open, and a thick yin qi floated out of it, so I threw a few talismans to dissipate the yin qi, and then walked into the bathroom to take a look.

The bathroom is not big, there is a toilet inside, the toilet lid is open, the water in it is very clear, and there is no sign of fluctuation. I lifted the mask a little bit to let the air directly into my nostrils, and after a shallow breath I quickly fastened it back - no doubt the smell came from the toilet.

Suddenly, the water in the toilet bowl bubbled!

At first, it was just one or two, but soon it seemed to be boiling, and the flowers kept turning. Old man Xu said that Mother Water's body is very soft and can come up from the sewer, and it is hard not to think of Mother Water in front of me! Zhen Yishuai died.

"What's coming out?" Mantou asked in a panic behind me.

I couldn't answer, but it seemed that something was really coming up, so I quickly motioned for him and Wang Fugui to retreat, leaving me alone in front of the bathroom. Just as the two of them had just gone back more than three meters, the water in the toilet bowl suddenly rushed to the ceiling like a fountain, and then a large black thing jumped out of the toilet.

It was dark in the room, and my flashlight didn't have time to catch up with it, but one thing I knew for sure was that the thing that jumped up wasn't some water monster, it was either a ghost or a youkai because it was covered in thick yin!

I threw a talisman at the thing, but it shook off and then slammed at me like a spring, with a short, hoarse cry.

At this moment, I clearly saw the big mouth of that guy, just like Old Man Xu described, this guy's mouth is really the size of a washbasin, and he can definitely swallow all my upper body in one bite.

I didn't dare to go head-to-head with it, and let the white tiger take over the battlefield while quickly retreating.

The white tiger roared from behind me, its huge body completely blocking the entire corridor on the second floor, and I couldn't see the battle, but after only a second the black thing screamed and the bubbling in the toilet stopped.

I hurriedly let the white tiger dodge to see what the black thing was, but after the white tiger dodged, all I was left with was a cloud of yin qi that gradually dissipated, and the black thing had been killed.

"Dude, you're too heavy, you'll have a chance to live." As I spoke, I gently patted the white tiger on the head.

The white tiger gave me an arrogant look, then twisted its head to the side, as if it didn't bother to listen to me at all, its attitude was completely different from before, and it seemed that after all its spiritual power was restored, its temper had also grown.

I was just about to talk to it and let it know who the boss was, when Mantou let out an exclamation at the top of the stairs.

"What's wrong?" I asked, and ran quickly to him.

The steamed bun didn't answer, and even ran to me with a rolling belt, and I shone a flashlight at the staircase.

Oh my day! There are 4 big guys crawling up at the top of the stairs, and they feel like black crocodiles with catfish mouths, and these guys are all wrapped in yin qi, obviously from the same sect as the ones who came out of the toilet just now!

"Have you come to avenge your senior brother?" I muttered to myself, and at the same time pointed forward with my right hand, "Master Hu, you are the boss, these are handed over to you, remember to keep a living mouth this time." ”

The White Tiger Lord roared, as if in response to my words, and then pounced on the staircase.
