I followed this group of strange people into the stilted building, which was messy, and I could still see some dice in the dim candlelight, and I could smell some umami in the room. I looked up at the wooden wall and saw some sun-dried fish hanging from the surrounding wall, which seemed to have been there for a long time.

Ah He took us to sit down in this humble room, and I quietly looked at these Tong people, and asked, "Where is the benefactor you mentioned now, and can I go to see her?" ”

Ah He said: "Sir, don't worry, I want to ask, are you going to find Jiaolong?" ”

I nodded. said, "Not bad. ”

Ah He asked again, "Do you have anything to do with going to Jiaolong?" ”

Without waiting for me to speak, Xu Promise took a step forward and said, "The iron tree blossoms, and the dragon is born." Heavy rains continue to fall across the country, and if this continues, the water level of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River will skyrocket, and many innocent people will be sacrificed at that time. We have to suppress the dragon back to the demon realm. ”

After listening to this, Ah He was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at me, and said, "In this case, how many of you want to subdue Jiaolong?" ”

"Not bad!" I nodded.

Ah He said: "It seems that the person who is waiting for tonight is you, Mr. Ye, our benefactor is in the room, a few of you come with me." "Finished. Ah He stood up and walked towards the room.

I followed behind Ah He, and Liu Qingqian promised the two of them to follow me, and I walked into a dark room. As soon as I walked into the room, I smelled some rotten smell in the air, very strange.

After Ah He lit the lamp, a room covered in cobwebs appeared in front of us, and a wooden bed was placed at the end of the room. The wooden bed was surrounded by red curtains, so you couldn't see what was inside, and the wooden bed was also covered with cobwebs, and there were some spiders crawling on top of the cobwebs, which looked very scary.

These Tong people were obviously used to everything here, and when they walked in, they all knelt in front of the ancient bed covered with cobwebs, and recited some Tong language that I didn't understand.

They and I glanced at each other, and we both saw the look of doubt in each other's eyes.

"Mr. Ye, the benefactor of our Tong clan is inside...... At this time, Ah He stood up and turned his head to look at me.

I stared intently at the ancient bed covered with cobwebs inside the red curtain. There wasn't a bit of breath in it, and it didn't look like a human being. Under our watchful eye, Ah He walked to the front of the ancient bed and said a few words of apology and so on. He stretched out his hand and pulled the red curtain open.

When I saw the man sitting on the ancient bed, I took a deep breath, to be exact, it was not a person, but a dried corpse.

The corpse had turned black. It was an old lady who was sitting cross-legged in front of the bed. His eyes were closed, and his body was covered with countless cobwebs.

Seeing this scene, Promise took a step forward. looked at the man named "Ah He" and said; "Your benefactor is dead?"

Ah He let out an "um" and said, "Yes, the benefactor has been dead for a long, long time. ”

"This ......," Liu Qingqian heard Ah He's words. I didn't know what to say for a while.

I just don't know why, but I feel that the person sitting on the bed across from me feels extremely familiar, as if I saw this person somewhere.

The more closely I looked at this dried corpse, the more familiar I felt that this corpse was very familiar, and after a long time, I walked in front of the corpse, and slowly knelt down in front of the corpse under the gaze of these people of the Tong clan.

"Ye Cheng, what are you doing?" Seeing me kneeling down for a strange corpse, Liu Qingqian walked up to my side and asked puzzledly.

I said, "I seem to have seen her somewhere, she seems to be one of my seniors." ”

"Who is it?" Senior sister also walked in front of me at this time. He asked.

I shook my head and said I didn't know, but at this time, Ah He also came over and said, "Mr. Ye, don't worry. You'll find out right away......"

I looked up at Ah He.

Without waiting for me to ask, Ah He continued: "The benefactor once explained that if Mr. Ye and you come, let us use the Great Method of Soul Conjuring to summon her soul back. ”

"Ah He, why do you call this old lady a benefactor, has this old lady helped your Tong clan somewhere?" I'm not in a hurry to speak directly to this dry corpse wife, but to find out his background first.

After Ah He heard my question. fell into deep memories and said: "That was forty years ago, forty years ago, we originally lived in Tongzu Village in Miaojiang...... That's where we've lived for generations. Our leader, the merman, guards the safety of the village, and if nothing else, the village should be safe and sound for generations......"

Regarding the system of the Tong clan, the sarong once told me. In them, the guardians of the Tong clan are called mermaids, and there is only one of them in each era, and they have the ability to predict the future.

"It was the most prosperous year for the Tong clan, because in that year. For the first time, the Tong clan gave birth to two sharks who can predict the future, they are dragon and phoenix fetuses. When everyone thought that the Tong clan was going to prosper under the leadership of these two mermen, disaster happened......" Speaking of this, Ah He's face flashed a little painful, "The mother who gave birth to these two mermaids died on the same day because of difficult childbirth, and the ghost of this mother will not disperse after her death, and she has to ask our patriarch for her life, so our whole clan has thrown ourselves into this catastrophe of fighting with evil spirits......"

The first half of this story, I am a little familiar, I can't remember whether Chen Feng or the sarong told me, so after Ah He finished speaking, I raised my head and looked at Ah He, and asked, "Is that woman a demon?" ”

After hearing my question, Ah He was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at me in surprise, and asked, "How do you know?" ”

"I guess...... You go on...... I said lightly, but my heart was extremely complicated.

Yu Tong, it turns out that the world is so small, and you can hear the things you and I have talked about here.

Ah He gave me a suspicious look. Then he continued: "That woman was transformed by a white fox, and after her death, the fox lingered in Tong Village for a long time, and many villagers were dug out of their hearts by the fox. Just when the whole village was concentrating on dealing with the white fox, our village was attacked by a group of people of unknown origin, the patriarch was killed in battle, and the whereabouts of the two mermaids were also unknown, and when we were about to be wiped out, the benefactor fell from the sky and rescued the only remaining more than 30 people of our Tong clan, and since then we have been hiding in the mountains......"

The wave of people of unknown origin once told me that they were the people of Lejia and Quanzhenjiao, and the purpose of these people was to snatch Yu Tong's reincarnation sarong.

There doesn't seem to be anything new in the story. But at least I know the rise and fall of the Tong clan. I turned my head to look at Ah He and said, "Please summon your benefactor, I want to know what is the matter with this benefactor of yours looking for me." ”

Ah He let out an "um" - looked at the Tong people behind him, and said, "Come on, everyone is ready to cast a spell." ”

Then, I witnessed a strange and comical spell casting process, and I saw that the thirty or so people dressed in Tong costumes were dancing and singing around the cobweb-covered wooden bed with a dried billfish in their hands, and those who didn't know thought that they were all crazy.

This process lasted for about half an hour, and a cold wind began to blow outside, and the cold wind was mixed with the smell of some rain, stirring the cobwebs in the room, which was very eerie.

The clothes of the dried corpse sitting in front of the bed began to be blown up, and a faint fishy smell echoed in the room, and I saw that the dried corpse began to show some changes, and the corpse began to become full, and now it seemed that the dried corpse was like a sleeping old lady, and her eyes would open at any moment.

The next second, her eyes opened.
