Chapter 230: A Rainstorm at Night (Part I)
Master Cai held the peachwood sword in his right hand, looked up at the black and gray shadows emerging from the water, and immediately walked over. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Reciting the mantra on his mouth, he was full of majestic momentum, and he immediately felt out a rune paper, and when he was about to destroy them, Master Cai saw that they all went into the water, as if he was frightened by the vicious momentum, and in the blink of an eye, the water surface became calm again.
Soon, a black cloud that covered the sun dispersed, and when a ray of sunlight shone on this side again, Yu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his body had warmed up a lot.
"I didn't expect you to be so powerful, you were scared away!" Glancing at the river, Uncle Ghost said with some consternation.
"There are so many unjust ghosts and water ghosts hidden under this water." After putting away the peachwood sword, Master Cai stepped back to the side and looked at Uncle Ghost and said.
"Those who died in battles in ancient times, and those who drowned in the river in recent years, as long as the tide rises, almost the entire river has corpses floating up." Uncle Ghost pointed to the river in front of him and said.
"People passing by say that this river is very weird, and several people die almost every year."
Uncle Ghost said again, and then left here with Yu Xiao and Master Cai. The river has already been seen, even if it stays any longer, it is useless, and when it comes to heavy rain, you have to go down to the river to fish for corpses.
Yu Xiao took a closer look just now and found that it was normal on the surface, but he also knew in his heart that there were a lot of weirdness underneath!
Then he returned to Uncle Ghost's house, sitting in the hall and chatting. Yu Xiao listened to him talk about some taboos in Xiajiang, and couldn't help but be frightened again.
It is estimated that only corpse diggers like Uncle Ghost have the courage to go down the river. If it were someone else, when I heard those strange things, I was afraid that I would be frightened. It's not sunny weather, and even getting close to the river has to be seriously considered.
At this time, Master Cai always looked at the sky outside the hall, and saw a lot of black clouds drifting in, and he also had a confirmation in his heart. Probably in the next day or two, there will definitely be a heavy rain in the skyspace.
But he was also in harmony with his heart, and helped the ghost couple dispose of the corpse as soon as possible, so that he could rush home.
After all, he is over half a hundred years old, and he is still working outside, Yu Xiao is a little embarrassed. But it was Master Cai who insisted on coming in person to finish this last thing so that he could stay at home with peace of mind.
In the afternoon, it was dark and night. It's just that tonight's dark curtain is coming sooner than ever.
After dinner, Master Cai stood on the courtyard dam and looked up at the sky. There was no moon hanging high tonight, and the whole sky was dark and dark, as if a rainstorm was about to fall.
Soon, Uncle Ghost also walked out of the hall, and after looking at the sky, he hurriedly went back to the house and tied the previously prepared objects with a rope to make a slipknot, and immediately walked out of the house and left to the side.
Almost all the poultry in the family has been used up during the worship in Xiajiang, so now I have to buy a black hen from my neighbors.
"It's about to rain, you sit down first, and I'll prepare some things that should be used before going down the river." After smiling and talking to Master Cai, Uncle Ghost ran towards the kitchen with a hen in his arms.
Seeing that the sky is covered with black clouds, everyone with a discerning eye knows that it will soon rain heavily. Uncle Ghost plans to prepare these first, and when the time comes, he won't be in a hurry when he goes down the river, otherwise it will be very troublesome.
Yu Xiao walked to the kitchen door, saw that Uncle Ghost was preparing, and walked to the hall.
"I guess I can't wait for tomorrow, it will rain tonight!" As soon as the butt sat down, Yu Xiao said loudly.
"It's not okay to rain at night, and if it's dark, it will be a lot more difficult to retrieve the corpses." Hurriedly replied, and Master Cai turned on the TV.
I just want to see if the weather is as accurate as expected, lest there be a heavy rain tonight, which will indeed add some difficulty to Uncle Ghost. No matter how good your eyesight is, you still have to row a boat, and your eyes have to be fixed on the river.
From time to time, there will be sudden dangers, and you have to muster up a fierce momentum.
When Yu Xiao saw Uncle Ghost coming from the kitchen, it was already around eleven o'clock in the evening.
But at this time, it had not rained in the sky, and it was still dark clouds covering the night.
I saw that the sky was getting lower and lower, as if it was not far from a high mountain, very gloomy, and with some weirdness. But after a while, a sudden gust of wind blew, blowing some flowers and plants raised in the yard of Uncle Ghost's house, fluttering in both directions.
Uncle Ghost walked to the edge of the courtyard, closed the gate, and then walked to the hall and closed the door again. Since there is no rain tonight, let's go make up for sleep first, raise some spirits, and go down the river tomorrow morning.
"Master Cai, then I'll go to sleep first." With that, Yu Xiao walked towards the rearranged room.
It's just that as soon as I lay on the bed, I still felt a wave of excitement in my heart, and I couldn't sleep.
Yu Xiao turned off the lights in the room, opened his eyes and swept the window, it was dark and dark, but it was also very quiet.
But when he was about to close his eyes and go to sleep, he heard a loud sound outside the window, as if a claw was grasping the window. Because the sound insulation of the room is not very good, I immediately heard the sound of a strong wind blowing.
"Whew...... Huh" suddenly broke the sudden silence, and frightened Yu Xiao to the startle.
The eyes looked at the window again, and suddenly, as if outside the window, a white figure floated by, which was particularly conspicuous in the darkness.
Yu Xiao hurriedly took out the dagger peach wood sword, hid it in the sleeve of his right hand, and then took out the money sword and put it on the side of the pillow, within reach, and then he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Suddenly, the door of Yu Xiao's room connected to the hall suddenly opened, and there was no sound at all, which was very weird.
Soon, a torrential rain fell in the skyspace, thunder and lightning followed.
Yu Xiao had just fallen asleep for a while before he was woken up. Quickly opened my eyes and saw that the lightning outside the window was still very bright.
But the weirdest thing is that when I swept to the edge of the bed, there seemed to be a figure standing......
"You ......" Before he finished speaking, Yu Xiao turned on the lights in the room.
When I looked up, there was no one at the head of the bed. While he was wondering, the lamp in the hall turned on.
Yu Xiao hurriedly walked to the door and saw that it was Uncle Ghost who got up with a black dagger pinned to his waist.
"Uncle Ghost, what are you doing here?" After asking, Yu Xiao was about to step out of the threshold, but when he thought that the backpack and the money sword were still on the bed, he turned back and took them with him.
"You quickly ask Master Cai to give me the photo and location of the deceased, and while it is raining now, I will go down to the river to pick up the body." Uncle Ghost mentioned the sacrifices that had been prepared, looked at Yu Xiao, and said loudly.
At this time, it is appropriate to go down the river, although there will be more danger at night, but maybe as soon as the day dawns, the rain will stop, and the river will become calm again. After that, he went down to the river to retrieve the corpse, and the water was very deep, so it was impossible.
So Uncle Ghost wanted to take advantage of the rain and the tide to go down to the river, and the chance of fishing up was greater. (To be continued.) )
