Chapter 37: The Spirit Dwells in the Water
Under the thunder and lightning, there is nothing to hide.
Therefore, if you encounter this kind of thunderstorm, it is rare for a little ghost to dare to wander outside, even if it is a ghost king, you have to weigh whether you have enough weight.
However, there are exceptions.
It rained heavily for six days and six nights, and the Surabaya River has become choppy and the water level has risen a lot.
Some of the fishermen's homes closer to the riverbank had been swept away by the floods.
Many are moving out of the homes they have lived in for decades in order to survive.
As the county magistrate, Song Shizhang did not let the safety of the people go without regard for the safety of the people at this critical moment, but personally led the officials, the arresters and some of the people into the ranks of rescuing the people.
The source of the Surabaya River is the Qingluo River, the junction of the Qingluo River and the Surabaya River, the east belongs to the jurisdiction of Yongfeng Town, and the west is not the jurisdiction of Yongfeng Town.
"Master, slow down!"
The head catcher wiped a handful of rain from his face, and the clothes didn't play much role under this kind of rain.
"Don't let so many people follow me! Everyone separates! Every three people are responsible for a distance! Don't get separated!"
Song Shizhang walked in the forefront, and his body was much tougher than that of young people in their twenties.
He turned and shouted at the officials behind him.
"What?" the catcher was closest to the county order, and he couldn't hear what was said, so he hurriedly ran a few steps forward.
Now where they are standing, there are still more than thirty meters away from the river in normal times, and the water here has reached the calf.
Therefore, when the head catcher ran, he had to raise his legs higher.
After a lot of effort, the head catcher finally came to the county commander's side, panting and said: "Master! You are too fast! The brothers can't keep up with your speed! The light has been chasing you for half a day, how can you have the time to see if there are any victims nearby!"
"I said!" Song Shizhang brushed his white hair back of his head, wiped the rain from his face, and finally opened his eyes, but he didn't want to be wet by the rain again immediately, "I said, don't all follow me! My feet are fast, I'll go to the junction of the Qingluo River and the Surabaya River to have a look! You are also separated, in groups of three or four people, each group is responsible for a certain distance search! Don't get separated!"
The rain was very strong, the water was very loud, and the thunder was very loud, so Song Shizhang felt that he had used his strength to eat milk and shouted loudly, "Do you understand?"
"You wait for me, I'll go with you!" The head catcher leaned into Song Shizhang's ear, shouted loudly, and then ran towards the team behind, and returned to Song Shizhang's side after the order.
In this way, the two of them walked all the way along the junction of the Qingluo River and the Surabaya River.
I don't know how long I walked, but I couldn't hold on to the headcatcher.
He bent over, his hands on his knees, and looked at the county order that was fading away in the rain with a guilty expression.
Yes!
The catcher shouted, shook his head vigorously, and tried to dry all the rain on his head, but he got rid of the old one and came with a new one.
"! The old man can insist, how can I admit it!"
The headcatcher yelled to cheer himself up.
"Old man, wait for me!"
Regardless of whether Song Shizhang heard it or not, he rushed forward with his head buried in his head, and when he saw that he was about to catch up with the other party, he was only a dozen steps away, and as soon as his feet slipped, the whole person fell into the water.
The mouth that opened when I wanted to shout for help poured into it at this moment.
The current was turbulent, and the headhunter was swept from shallow to deep by the water.
Life and death are between taking an extra sip of river water and a small sip of river water.
Because, the headcatcher saw a person!
A woman!
Wrong!
To be precise, it is a beautiful and generous woman.
She was not disturbed by the current in the water, and slowly stretched out her jade hand to the head catcher.
Seeing this, the head catcher hurriedly stretched out his hand, and just when he wanted to hold the jade hand, he found that it was interspersed with that hand.
Ghost!
The head catcher suddenly realized this problem, his eyes couldn't help but open round, and the last breath that he had been holding was also held to the end at this moment.
Wow~
The river is pouring in!
The headcatcher's body was finally filled with river water.
There was compassion in the woman's eyes, and she couldn't do anything about it, so she didn't stop and continued to swim towards the junction of the Qingluo River and the Surabaya River upstream.
Because, seven days ago, she suddenly felt the call of a man!
The man kept calling her name!
So, she left her body and chose to pursue the voice.
This person is Jiang Renbao's aunt - Jiang Yuhe!
Jiang Yuhe's cultivation did not step into the Tongxuan Realm, so when she left her body, it was impossible to return to her body, unless someone superior summoned her spirit.
But how many celestial masters really know how to summon spirits?
Even a righteous man and a gentleman dare not say that he can do it easily.
Jiang Yuhe, who left the body, wandered the great rivers and mountains in the state of her soul, from her initial curiosity, to her later panic, and then to her final calmness.
In just seven days, her psychological journey has been much more than she has experienced in the more than 30 years she has lived.
She let go of the helplessness in her heart, the sadness in her heart, and the desire in her heart, and faced everything that happened after her with a new attitude.
Now she suddenly realized that she might belong to the water, because in the water she actually had a sense of peace, and when the water caressed her body, she actually had a feeling of returning to her mother's belly. Moreover, now that she is able to move through the water unimpeded, she feels like she has become one with the Surabaya River!
When she failed to save the headcatcher, she didn't stop, but continued to follow the river all the way upstream, the man's voice was becoming more pronounced, and I am afraid that it would not be long before the puzzle was solved.
Who the hell keeps calling their names?
This is the question that Jiang Yuhe is most eager to know at this time.
Gradually, the boundary monument had appeared in front of him, and Jiang Yuhe swam to the front, touching the traces left by the boundary monument in the years with both hands.
"You're really here!" an exclamation came from behind.
Jiang Yuhe suddenly turned his head to look, only to see a boatman sitting on a small boat, the rain could not enter him, beside him was a big net, there seemed to be a person lying in the net, that person was wearing a cloak and couldn't see clearly, and couldn't distinguish between men and women.
"Are you calling me?" Jiang Yuhe asked curiously.
"Someone else!" replied the boatman succinctly.
"Were you also called by that person? Dare to ask what the senior's name is?" Jiang Yuhe always gave the other party enough respect, because she knew that the other party was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Don't dare to be famous!" The fisherman said abruptly: "It's just a little water spirit! It's not easy to cultivate for a thousand years! I hope today is a good start!"
"Cultivate for a thousand years!" Jiang Yuhe was amazed when he heard this, and hurriedly saluted: "Please forgive the juniors for being clumsy!"
"It's okay!" the boatman never took off the hat that covered his face, and waved his hand, "Maybe you and I will work together in the future!"
“...... I don't know who called us over! I don't know who the people next to my predecessors are? Why are they staying in the fishing nets?"
"She's just a dead man!" said the fisherman impatiently, "all right, don't talk, just wait quietly! I'll sleep a little longer!"
Jiang Yuhe looked around, and finally sat on the boundary monument as a chair.
