"I ...... Hiccup......"

Because he ate too quickly, Wang Fool was choked and burped a few times.

After recovering his strength, he continued: "Hehe...... I saw a man's head floating in the river. ”

Xu was stunned and asked, "When?" Do you see what it looks like? ”

"No~ the hair of the human head covers the whole face."

"Are there any other characteristics of that?"

"It's going to float up~ The clothes are blue, burp......"

"It's the beauty of the Chu people!"

Xu Jingzhen completely confirmed his conjecture, thanked him and got up to leave, and went all the way to the west of the village.

This is already the edge of the village.

Trees and weeds grow, and a small river more than 20 meters wide flows next to it.

This water used to be eaten by the villagers.

That weird singing voice was also the first to appear from here.

He walked around and didn't notice anything strange.

Or perhaps the strangest thing is right in front of you: the river.

As long as you pick it up and take a sip, you will be cursed, and then you will die of seeing an extremely strange hallucination.

But I don't plan to drink it now, and I haven't had it yet.

He turned to leave, but stopped after a few steps.

After frowning slightly and thinking about it, he decided not to leave, it would be boring to go back anyway.

Stay here tonight!

One is to see if you can find some information, and the other is to kill time.

He found a flat meadow and meditated cross-legged, thinking about this and that.

Finally, I began to ponder, is it possible to build a mobile phone in the Xiuzhen world?

……

Time has come to the unitary time before you know it.

The already cloudy sky became darker, and it didn't take long for it to rain heavily.

Xu Jingzhen recovered from the meditation and found a place to hide from the rain and continue to wait.

Heavy rain.

Rain.

The sound of the river.

The dampness turned into a white mist and began to pervade, and the world fell into a hazy and somewhat eerie silence.

Meanwhile.

A few miles away, a hunter in a cloak was walking briskly in the rain.

After running for a while, a ruined temple appeared in the mist.

Orion hurried in with joy in his heart, patting the rain on his body first, and then looking around.

There were no windows, no doors, and the roof was broken with a few holes leaking rain.

The ground is overgrown with weeds, and the dragon king statue on the altar has weathered.

It was dilapidated, but it was enough to shelter from the wind and rain.

Orion put the steel fork at his feet, removed the hemp rope and axe from his waist and sat down.

Then open the gourd and pour two sips of water.

He looked outside and cursed unlucky, he didn't catch any prey today, it was really in vain.

And I can't stop watching the heavy rain for a while.

The rations carried had been eaten, and only a gourd was left with water from the river.

Alas! I'm going to starve and freeze tonight.

He took off his coat and left it to dry, scoured the dead grass on the ground, and then lay down to rest.

Click!

At that moment, a bolt of lightning pierced the dim night sky.

Orion, who was already lying down, suddenly jumped up quickly again.

Because he keenly noticed that there seemed to be a black shadow flashing outside?!

"Who?!"

He grabbed the steel fork and shouted, staring warily at the situation outside.

As an old hunter, he is active in the deep mountains and old forests all the year round, and he must be more courageous than ordinary people.

Jianghu is also rich in experience.

Faced with this situation, he was not afraid, but pondered what the dark shadow was.

Bandits nearby?

Or is it the ringing horse of the robbery??

can still haunt in heavy rain, and it is only this kind of person who licks blood from the knife edge.

This was on guard for a moment, and nothing new happened.

Orion clenched his weapon and cautiously approached the window and glanced out, mist and heavy rain.

There are no people or animals.

He relaxed a little, guessing that it was the result of misreading the shadow of the tree.

It's okay.

Orion turned back, completely oblivious to the shadow beneath his feet.

I didn't even move!

He lay down again, closed his eyes and listened to the sound of the rain, and before he knew it, he fell asleep in a daze.

I fell asleep and heard a voice suddenly sound outside in the haze.

Zhang San...... Tom! ”

"Help me...... Help me......"

Even though it was covered by the sound of rain, it could be heard clearly.

Orion suddenly woke up and sat up, reacting that this was not his mother-in-law's voice?!

What's going on?!

Why is she out there?

He was completely confused, and in shock and confusion, he grabbed his weapon and rushed out of the door.

Then he stared wide-eyed in the rain looking for his wife.

Soon he noticed that a hand was shaking on the surface of the river not far away.

He also wears a plain green bracelet on his wrist.

Orion recognized it at a glance as his mother-in-law's hand!

That is, she strangely fell into the river and was about to drown??

"Cui'er!! Cui'er, I'm here to save you!! ”

Puff ——!

Without thinking about it, he rushed to the river in a panic while shouting, and plunged directly into it.

However, it was still a moment slower after all.

When he swam past it, the hand sank down.

"Cui'er !!"

Orion shouted in despair, taking a deep breath and diving.

But the river was so turbulent and muddy that I couldn't see anything clearly.

After looking for a while, he felt that the oxygen was running out, so he could only quickly rise up and take a big breath.

Irritated by the icy water, Orion began to come to his senses.

He suddenly remembered an evil matter.

Wrong wrong! Didn't his wife die three years ago?

Right now...... How could he suddenly appear and fall into the river?!

A chill welled up in my heart.

Just as he was about to hurry ashore, his legs were suddenly grabbed by something!

"Ahh Goo Goo ......"

Orion's frightened soul flew away, and he was instantly dragged down by a huge force.

Turbid, cold river water poured into the ears, nose and throat.

His arms struggled frantically, but to no avail, and his body sank more and more.

Fear.

Despair.

After a few moments, the water returned to calm, except for the ripples of the rain.

Except for the footprints in the grass and the upside-down steel forks, it was as if no one had ever come.

……

The time slowly came to the end of the day (5-7 o'clock).

Morning came, and the rain that had been falling all night finally stopped, but the dark clouds had not yet dissipated.

"Ha ......"

The meditative Xu stood up, yawning and stretching his waist to move his muscles.

I thought I could meet Chu Renmei singing ghost shows, or take the initiative to find myself.

As a result, nothing happened, and I waited for one night in vain.

He walked quickly towards the sect, the matter of not returning to the sect at night can be big or small, but a batch is indispensable.

After walking for a while, I found that there were people on the wooden bridge in front of me.

I saw a few villagers of Daoxiang Village carrying farm tools, pointing together.

And there was still a man lying on the shore.

The upper body is in the grass, and the lower body is still floating in the river.

"This isn't from our village, is it?"

"No, no, I've never seen it, and this death is too miserable."

"Alas, he must have drunk the river water and died!"

The villagers were talking, with frightened and pitiful eyes.
