Early the next morning, we rushed back to the town of Twin Towers. This expedition is another major operation, and its importance is almost no different from previous major tomb exploration activities such as the Tomb of the Black Demon King and the Tomb of the Evil Descending from the Sky, so the personnel and equipment must be fully staffed.

But Xiang Qiuling said that there were not many people to go, so I wrote a few names and asked her to come to the circle. As a result, she circled Fu Ying, Yang Liu, Chen Xiaoling, Dong Xiang and Jiang Rulan, all of the women's army, only I was "Hong Changqing", I said bring a few more boys, and let them do manual work. As a result, she circled Huang Ranran, Datou, Senong and Peasants, and my valued Tang Jun, Heng Qi, Liu Yong and others did not let them take them.

There is no way, I have to say to Tang Jun, Heng Qi and others, you should be the second echelon, maybe we will need your rescue at any time.

Huang ran and said: "But don't be crow's mouth, we don't expect them to rescue!"

I gave him a roll of the eyes: "You fart king, get out of the way, do I need you to teach me a lesson?"

This time, we decided to take a yacht up the Ghost Creek to the tomb of King Xiang of the Ghost Fire Chong. The distance between Ghost Fire Chong and Shuangta Town is fifty kilometers in a straight line, and the traffic is very inconvenient, with no trains or automobiles or anything, so you can only take rugged mountain roads. But we carried a lot of equipment, and it was not feasible to walk the mountain road on foot, so we had to travel by water and follow the ghost stream to get there.

We rented a diesel engine boat and went down the Qingshui River near Shuangta Town, and then turned into the Guixi River, a tributary of the Qingshui River, and then traced the river for more than 60 miles to reach the Guihuochong. Due to the construction of a barrage downstream to raise the water level, the water of the Ghost Creek has become quite gentle, although we are sailing against the current, but it is not effortless at all, if we go over, this place is completely a dangerous valley, if the big boat wants to go up, it is all up to the slender man shouting the trumpet to pull up!

Our boat departed from Shuangta Town, walked for an hour to the confluence of the Qingshui River and the Ghost Creek, and then turned into the Ghost Creek and began to trace the Ghost Creek upstream. When we first entered the Ghost Creek, the scenery was very beautiful, comparable to the Three Gorges, but after going deep into the Ghost Creek for more than ten miles, the mountains on both sides became hideous, and the peaks hundreds of meters high rose from the ground, and the dark blue stone mountains hung high above our heads, and it seemed that they would fall down and hit us at any time......

I gasped and said, "It's really worthy of the name that a place like this is called Ghost Creek!"

"Looks like there's a lot of ghosts here?" said Huang Runran, digging his nostrils.

"The front is called Ghost Throwing Rock, the terrain is extremely dangerous, it is the place where Xiang Wang and the official army fought in those years, there were countless casualties, and the blood flowed like a river! The corpses were piled up and burned together for three days and three nights! Later, this place was often haunted, there were dew ghosts in the morning, noon ghosts, and night ghosts! Everywhere you went, you would bump into ghosts!" Master Li, the captain of the boat, said.

When I looked ahead at the river, the mountain was very narrow, less than thirty meters at its narrowest point, and since it was still a reservoir submerged area, the water was still forty or fifty meters deep!

I was enjoying the mountain view, when suddenly the roar of the diesel motor stopped, and our boat stopped. I asked, "Master Li, why did the boat stop?"

Master Li picked up the iron anchor and threw it into the water, and then walked to the cockpit at the stern of the boat. The cockpit and power system of this type of boat are at the stern and are a two-story layout, while the guest cabin is at the front of the boat.

Master Li's assistant Lao Wang told Master Li that the diesel engine had failed. Master Li had to go to overhaul the machine with Lao Wang, and at the same time apologized to us, telling us to wait and the ship would be repaired immediately.

However, we waited for two or three hours, and the diesel engine still did not ring. We went to ask the reason, but Master Li was sweating profusely and told us that the diesel engine was good and not faulty, but it just couldn't start, and I didn't know what the reason was?

Huang Ranran, this slut, got up again: "I see that there is a ghost, the ghost is doing something!"

I was about to tell Huang Ran to shut up, when Xiang Qiuling suddenly said to me, "Brother Yang, the reason may be underwater!"

We all looked down the surface - although the water of the Ghost Creek was quite clear, it was so deep that we could only see a few meters deep, and the deeper part was a terrible dark green.

"Look, there's something in the stern!" suddenly exclaimed the sharp-eyed head.

We hurriedly looked in the direction of the big head's fingers, and saw a humanoid creature hanging on the propeller at the stern of the boat, this humanoid creature looked like a withered old man, and like a deformed teenager!

"Damn, why is there a dead man hanging?" Huang ran was suddenly shocked and urinated, and the others also frowned.

I wanted to jump into the water to find out, but considering that I was not very familiar with the water, I didn't dare to be a hero for a while, but I regretted that I didn't bring a few "drowned fish" such as Heng Qi and Xie Ke, otherwise I wouldn't have to scratch my ears and cheeks like this now.

"Brother Yang, I'll take a look. "Fortunately, there are also "drowned fish" in the group of women I brought, and this is Fu Ying. Fu Ying stood up, jumped into the water, and after a while untied the dead man hanging from the propeller, and brought it to the boat gang for us to watch.

To our amazement, the appearance of the "dead man" is really hideous: the face is completely the legendary hairy face Lei Gongzui (that is, an ape and a monkey, the facial features are distributed in the front of the face), above the forehead is like a cat, and the pair of eyes protrude out of the sockets, and the green pupils, although they are dead, but the eyes still give people goosebumps!

And its body is like a rickety old man, its shriveled skin clinging to its bones, its hands and feet are slender like hooks, and its claws are shiny with cold light.

We were judging this thing, and Master Li also jumped out of the cockpit and was very shocked: "This is a water monkey!"

"Water monkeys?" said the farmer, in dismay.

"Water monkeys are also called drowned ghosts, water sacrifice ghosts, and water ghosts, and legend has it that they are changed by drowned people, because they cannot be reincarnated, so they wait for the place where he was drowned, looking for the next drowned person to use as a stand-in, and if he finds a stand-in, he can go to reincarnation, and his stand-in stays there to find a new stand-in!" Senon also explained in a matter-of-fact manner.
