Chapter 22 The Reservoir

Xiaoqing was already scared and cried, her face was pale, and her hands were clutched tightly to her chest.

"It's... It was a woman's voice, I couldn't hear what she was saying, but I felt like she was calling me..."

"Don't be afraid!" Miss Bai reached out and grabbed her shoulder.

"Ah Leng, let's go take a look."

Xiang Feng and I went outside and walked around the house in a big circle, but nothing came to mind. Back in the courtyard, I comforted Xiaoqing, after all, there are several of us, Xiang Feng and I can spell, plus there are seven-star swords and various magic weapons. After a while, Xiaoqing settled down and fell asleep leaning on Miss Bai's shoulder.

Xiang Feng pulled out three pillars of incense, lit it, turned around the courtyard, and inserted it at the door. It wasn't long before my eyelids started to fight and I fell into a deep sleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but I felt someone tap me on the shoulder, and when I opened my eyes, it was Xiangfeng. I was about to ask him, when suddenly there were just two of us in the courtyard, Xiaoqing and Miss Bai were gone!

We fell asleep before, and Xiang Feng and I didn't know when they went out. When we came outside, Xiang Feng and I decided to go our separate ways.

It was the second half of the night, the moon was cold, the cold wind was getting into my clothes, and I had goosebumps on my body. I kept finding the village, but I didn't see a ghost, so I had to go back.

When passing through a junction, the moon burrowed into the clouds, and the surroundings suddenly became pitch black. At that moment, a man suddenly jumped out, and as soon as I reached out and grabbed the man's arm, I felt that it was a woman.

When I smelled that familiar scent, I knew it was Miss Bai.

"Don't fight, it's me!" I reprimanded, "There are unclean things in this village, who let you run out in the middle of the night, Xiaoqing?" ”

"I'm here for her, too." Miss Bai said, "When I woke up, she was gone. ”

"Then why don't you call us along?!"

Miss Bai didn't answer, but said coldly, "Can you let go of my arm?" ”

My face was hot, and I hurriedly let go of my hand. Miss Bai and I walked back one after the other, and when we passed the pond, Miss Bai suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

Miss Bai pointed into the distance, and when I looked, I saw Xiaoqing standing on the edge of the pond opposite, fluttering long, looking like a female ghost.

"What is she doing, is she crazy?!"

I was about to shout, when there was a 'plop' and Xiaoqing jumped into the pond. Miss Bai and I jumped down one after the other and swam towards the place where Xiaoqing fell into the water. By the time I remembered that I wasn't good at water, it was too late.

The pond was deep, and the water was bitterly cold. I tread the water desperately, and I could barely swim two or three meters before I could swim, and I felt that the pond water was pressing on my chest, and it was difficult to even breathe. As the tendons in my legs twitched, I began to sink.

After choking on two mouthfuls of water, my brain dizzy, and the night sky began to shake above me. In a daze, I saw that Miss Bai was like a fish, splashing away from me.

The more I 'fluttered', the more I sank, and when Miss Bai turned around, she saw my appearance and stopped. I wanted to say let her save Xiaoqing and leave me alone, but as soon as I opened my mouth, I choked on a big mouthful of water. My eyes darkened, and a thought rose in my heart, it's over, Lao Tzu didn't succeed in his school, and he reimbursed himself in a pond...

Suddenly, I felt someone swim up to me, and then a strong force lifted me up. As the air entered my lungs, my consciousness suddenly woke up. When I opened my eyes, it was Miss Bai.

"Quick... Go and save Xiaoqing, don't... Leave me alone..."

"I'll take you away."

Miss Bai said undoubtedly, and then half-hugged me and swam towards the pond on the right. I was so ashamed that I jumped down to save someone, only to be saved. Sticking to Miss Bai's warm body, I tread water desperately and soon came to the pond.

Miss Bai pushed me to the side, said that she would go up by herself, and then a fierce man plunged into the water. I grabbed a small tree by the pond with the thickness of my thumb and looked at the splash in the distance, and I was extremely grateful.

The water in the pond was very clear, and under the moonlight, the water surface was sparkling, and I secretly prayed for Xiaoqing in my heart. Suddenly, I saw a whirlpool the size of a bowl in the distance of the pond. The vortex spun around a few times, turned into a splash, and shot like an arrow in Miss Bai's direction.

I shuddered, and a thought flashed through my head, there was something in the water!

"Be careful!"

I yelled at Miss Bai, took something out of my body, and threw it at the 'water arrow'. Looking through the moonlight, it was one of the 'Yin Talismans' that Master made for me and Xiang Feng that night.

The 'Yin Talisman' landed very close to the 'Water Arrow', and it drifted through the middle of the 'Water Arrow'. Immediately afterward, several huge splashes suddenly rolled on the surface of the water, and the sound was terrifying.

As the water calmed down, Miss Bai poked her head out of the water, her face as white as a piece of paper. Intuitively, I think she must have seen that 'thing' in the water.

At this time, there was a 'plop' sound in the distance, and a person jumped into the water, and I saw that it was Xiang Feng.

Miss Bai shouted towards the wind, "There's something in the water, be careful!" Xiaoqing is in your area! ”

Xiang Feng drilled into the water, and in less than a moment, he held up a person, it was Xiaoqing.

"Let's go, go up!"

After shouting, I rolled over and crawled onto the shore. walked to the position where Miss Bai swam over, and stretched out his hand to pull her up. Subsequently, Xiang Feng also carried Xiaoqing ashore.

Miss Bai didn't have time to breathe, walked over and opened Xiaoqing's eyelids to take a look, pressed a few times on her chest, and slowly opened Xiaoqing's eyes as she vomited out a few mouthfuls of water.

Looking at us blankly, Xiaoqing said faintly, it's in the water, I found it... Then she fainted, and she didn't know which 'it' she was talking about.

At this time, the sky was almost dawn, and the morning breeze was blowing, and I couldn't stop shivering with cold. Looking into the pond, I saw that the water surface was flat like a mirror.

"You see it, right, what is it?" I asked Miss Bai.

Miss Bai's face turned pale, her eyes were closed, she clasped her hands on her chest and shook her head, "I don't know, I didn't see clearly..."

Xiang Feng hugged Xiaoqing, and the four of them returned to the house like chickens in soup. The fire was turned on until dawn, and our clothes were barely dry.

Xiaoqing talked nonsense in a daze, and when she touched it with her hand, her head was hot like a piece of coal. The 'madman' hasn't come back yet, so we decided to find a place to inject Xiaoqing to reduce her fever.

When I walked back to the village and passed by the pond, I walked on the edge and looked into the pond, it was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly, and the thrilling scene of last night felt like a nightmare to me.

After asking the villagers, we drove to a town about ten miles from the village. found the health center and gave Xiaoqing an injection. Miss Bai kept sneezing, and it seemed that she also had a cold, so I dragged her and asked the doctor to prescribe a few pairs of medicines.

After discussion, we decided to let Miss Bai stay and take care of Xiaoqing, and Xiang Feng and I went back to the village to continue waiting for the 'madman'.

On the way back, I drove the car and sat in the passenger seat to the wind, not knowing what I was pondering.

"What do you think that thing in the pond would be?" I asked.

Xiang Feng shook his head and said nothing.

"That thing seems to be afraid of the 'Yin Talisman' that Master gave us, last night it swam towards Miss Bai, I threw the 'Yin Talisman' over and it ran away." I said, "Maybe that thing is the evil that harms the villagers." However, Master said that evil spirits will not let people know at all, they are hiding in an unknown space..."

"I think," said Xiang Feng, "that 'madman' who lives in that house should know what's in the pond..."

When I returned to the village, I had just turned an intersection and saw a lot of people in front of me.

"Something could be wrong." I whispered, "Let's go, let's go see." ”

Pulling the car aside, Xiang Feng and I walked towards the crowd. The crowd was three layers inside and three layers outside, crowded and impermeable, and there seemed to be someone making noise inside, and I couldn't hear it clearly.

I stood on tiptoe and looked around, only to see a few men carrying long shovels. I was about to squeeze in to take a look, when I suddenly saw the owner of the small shop that I had spoken to last night. Pulling him by the hand, the boss looked at me for a long time before he recognized me.

"What's going on?" I asked.

The boss had a gloating expression on his face, smiled and said: "It's the madman I told you last night, he got into trouble again, he ran to Lincun and didn't know what he said to others, he was picked up by others, and if he didn't die today, he would definitely be crippled..."

I frowned, "With so many people watching, why didn't anyone call the police?" ”

"Who's going to call the police?" The boss spread his hands, "The people in our village wish he was beaten to death, this disaster..."

I looked at the wind and whispered, "Let's go, go in and have a look." ”

Xiang Feng is tall and big, and wherever he goes, others consciously let him go when they look at him. We effortlessly came to the middle of the crowd, and saw five or six young men standing with sticks and shovels, and a black-faced man in his thirties beating a middle-aged man who was as thin as firewood.
