The corpse salvage is the most common in the lower nine streams, but where there are villages, towns and cities by the rivers, lakes and seas, there must be corpse scoopers.

This is the only hill profession formed by the imperial court.

At first, there was no profession of corpse digger.

But the common people live by the mountains and the water, and if they beg for a living in the water, it is inevitable that someone will die in the river, if the feng shui is not right, or the deceased has grievances, they will turn into water ghosts, water corpses, and a troubled party.

Therefore, the imperial court gathered some fishermen, and after someone fell into the water and died, these people scooped up the body and buried it.

In order to prevent some corpses that have become evil spirits from killing the corpse fisher, the imperial court will also teach some small spells collected to the original corpse fisherman.

Gradually, with the passage of time, these corpse salvages became a specialized profession, and the father died and the son replaced, forming a clan force with corpse salvage as the main business.

Then there are some corpse harvesting fathers who will pick up the corpses of monks from the water by chance, and thus obtain some incomplete cultivation methods.

This lowly karma in the mortal world has successfully entered the ranks of Xuan cultivators on the mountain.

But because the corpse harvester is a cheap industry, although he has become a cultivator on the mountain, he is still despised by the mountain people, and even many casual cultivators look down on the corpse collector.

Unable to integrate into the cultivation world on the mountain, after recognizing the reality, the corpse digging duke also cut off contact with the mountain and became the most unique group of people on and off the mountain.

But this does not mean that every corpse collector can use spells, after all, this kind of lowly profession, many fishermen are recruited by the local government as corpse collectors every year in order to make a living.

And it is not a safe errand to collect corpses, and there are often corpse digging families who have encountered great evils, and the whole clan has been wiped out.

It's just that I don't know if these corpse diggers in front of me are the kind of people who can do spells.

Li Cheng went to the dock, made an appointment with the boatman, and came to the dock to blend in with the lively people.

All around is a variety of strange tones of official dialect, and from time to time a series of unintelligible vernacular pops up.

However, listening left and right is enough for Li Chengjing to understand what happened.

It turned out that not long ago, the water level of Huaishui suddenly dropped, which made the people around Huaishui very frightened, after all, all the villages near Yizi City lived on the fish and shrimp in Huaishui.

If the water dries up, I don't know how many people will starve to death because of this.

The patriarchs of the Tu tribes felt that this must be because they didn't know what was going on, which angered the Huaishui River God, so they sacrificed for many days and begged the River God for forgiveness.

But it didn't work.

In the end, even the magistrate of Yizi City began to contact the surrounding counties, wanting to invite Xuan Xiu on the mountain to investigate the reason.

Although this year is not a good year, the rain is also abundant, and Huaishui, which is a relatively large branch of the Fujiang River, is absolutely impossible to have a significant drop in the water level.

This is not a big problem in the first place, as long as a Taoist cultivator comes here, please ask the river god to ask the reason, and solve it.

However, Yizi City is close to the border pass, and it is an important town for Fujiang to link the border pass, transport troops, and transport baggage.

Yizi City Magistrate, who had no choice, could only rummage through the ancient books and found a kind of ancient ritual to worship the god of water, and wanted to sacrifice to the god of water according to the gourd painting.

As a result, on the same day, after the sacrifice began, the calm Huaishui suddenly rolled in a large wave, overturning many sacrificial boats on the water, and many people drowned in the Huaishui that day.

The people nearby said that it was the county magistrate who made a mistake and angered the water god, which set off a big wave and damaged the sacrificial boat.

These days, the magistrate of Yizi City did not dare to step out of the county office, for fear that the families of the victims, these fierce natives, would be slaughtered.

This is not because the magistrate of Yizi City is worried.

There are no less than 100 indigenous villages of various ethnic groups in the border pass of Shangxie County, and the people are mixed, and the people are fierce, even if there is a large army stationed, there are still indigenous attacks on officials every year.

In order to stabilize the border passes, the imperial court mostly turned a blind eye, as long as it did not openly promote rebellion, it would only punish the evil.

Now that the magistrate of Yizi City has killed so many people, it is not impossible for these ignorant natives to seek revenge on him.

When people drown, they always have to be scooped up and buried.

It stands to reason that these natives are all begging for food in the water, and the water nature is naturally not bad, and when the wind and waves are calm, they can be scooped up on their own.

But I don't know what went wrong, these people who went down to retrieve the corpses have never seen them up again since they went down.

The resentment of the natives became more and more intense, and the magistrate of Yizi City knew that he could not go on like this, so he specially transferred the famous corpse-collecting family of Shangxie County to come and retrieve the corpse.

There is also a scene in front of me.

After Li Chengjing finished combing everything, he suddenly smiled.

Since there is a family of corpse fishers with an inheritance, these people must know some spells.

On the river, a black canopy boat keeps circling in the center of the water, and at the bow of the boat is a strong man wearing a black vest and a red ribbon on his head, holding a roast suckling pig in his hand, and there are words in his mouth, and from time to time another person throws various foods into the water.

It wasn't until the end that the roast suckling pig was thrown into the water.

After waiting for a stick of incense, the water was calm and waveless, and the man nodded.

Then he took a dagger from his bosom, held it in his mouth, and then carried a bundle of hemp rope and jumped straight into the water.

A section of the hemp rope was firmly tied to the wooden pole of the boat, and after waiting for a long time, I saw that the hemp rope was constantly being dragged into the water, and there was no movement.

After a quarter of an hour, the people on the boat seemed to be a little panicked, and hurriedly pulled the rope to pull the people under the water up.

"Something went wrong!"

Seeing this scene, almost everyone saw that there was a problem, and the dock instantly became noisy.

The speed at which the people on the awning boat dragged the rope was very fast, and during the tea time, the long rope straightened, and the people on it pulled harder, but this time the rope pulled much slower.

With a "bang", a human head emerged from the water, holding his head high and breathing heavily.

"Whew!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the head that came out of the water, with a bright red ribbon tied to it, was the person who had just entered the water.

But just when everyone thought that the other party was safe and sound, a sudden change occurred.

A pair of white, swollen hands suddenly stretched out from the water around the man, and then a barely inhumanoid corpse emerged from the water, pounced on the man in black, and pressed him back into the water.

The people on the boat shouted in panic, and the people on the dock kept retreating in fright.

All sorts of incomprehensible, panicked shouts came out of their mouths.

But Li Chengjing stared at the water with an incredible expression on his face.

Just now, he clearly felt an extremely familiar power in those corpses.

It was the breath of the Origin Water.

Although it was very weak, it was enough for Li Chengjing to judge that these corpses were not ordinary water corpses, but water corpses.

"Ahh With a panicked shout, I saw that the people pulling the ropes on the awning boat fell one after another, and even two of them fell directly into the water.

It turned out that the rope broke for some reason.

The people who fell into the water desperately tried to climb onto the boat, but before they could get close to the boat, several water corpses appeared in the water again and threw them into the water.

If there were no accidents, these people would almost certainly die.

The people on the boat didn't have time to check their injuries, and they endured the pain, took out a few wooden barrels from the boat, and threw them directly into the water.

In an instant, the surface of the water was stained blood-red.

It turned out to be a few buckets of blood of unknown nature.

Li Chengjing shook his head, this blood must be black dog blood or rooster blood, which can dispel evil spirits, if it is an ordinary water corpse, it will also be useful.

But this is a water evil corpse, not to mention this kind of soil method, it is the Xuan Xiu on the mountain, and there is no way to take these water evil corpses without the cultivation of the Jindan Realm.

"Get out of the way!" Li Chengjing burst into a shout, pushed away the people in front of him, jumped into the river, and in full view of everyone, tread the water, and ran towards the center of the river.

"Immortals, immortals!"

I don't know who is shouting, but the people on the dock who don't know what to do hula all knelt down, kowtowing to Li Chengjing and bowing down.

When he came to the center of the river, Li Chengjing did not hesitate at all, and the breath of water under his feet spewed out, broke through the water surface, and fell straight into it.

As soon as I entered the water, my eyes were blood-red.

Li Chengjing scolded secretly, there is more than enough success and more failure.

In order to find those water demon corpses, Li Chengjing sank quickly, and soon saw two corpse salpers who had passed out and were dragged to the bottom of the river by four or five water demon corpses.

Li Chengjing immediately caught up quickly, and those water demon corpses seemed to have also discovered Li Chengjing, and immediately separated several water demon corpses and pounced on Li Chengjing.

But these water demon corpses are naturally troublesome for other Xuan Xiu, but for Li Chengjing, there is no threat at all.

Something that isn't even stiff, there's something to be afraid of.

Li Chengjing directly injected his water evil qi into the bodies of these water demon corpses, and instantly assimilated the water evil power in the bodies of these corpses, making these water demon corpses become like huge puppets, frozen and motionless in the water.

Li Chengjing concocted the same method, solved these water corpses, grabbed the two fainting corpse scoopers, and threw them upward, and the two of them quickly rose towards the water.

Then, Li Chengjing did not hesitate and immediately fell deeper.

Soon, he saw an extremely strange and spectacular scene.

The black-clothed corpse man with a red ribbon was fighting with forty or fifty corpses in his hand, a dagger flying in his hand, and his hands and feet were used together.

The whole person seems to have turned into a big fish, and he is not as dexterous as a human.

But Li Chengjing can also see that the number of water demon corpses is too much, although the water nature of this corpse is incredible, but he is a person after all, and he can't stay in the water for a long time, I'm afraid that in less than two quarters of an hour, he will die here because of suffocation, and be turned into the same kind by these water corpses.

Li Chengjing did not hesitate, swam over quickly, connected his fingers, and in the shocked gaze of the corpse fisherman, it didn't take half a cup of tea to freeze all these water corpses.

Li Chengjing said to the corpse fisher: "You go up and ventilate." ”

The corpse salveraging man's face was already white and terrifying at the moment, knowing that it was not polite, and besides, he didn't have Li Chengjing's ability to speak in the water, so he quickly swam upward.

But Li Chengjing did not follow, but continued to go down.

Because there is something more important to Li Chengjing here, that is, to turn these corpses into the source of corpses.

It is also the place where Li Chengjing is looking for the gathering of evil qi, as long as he finds it, Li Chengjing will be able to break through his cultivation in a short period of time and condense into a evil pill.

Huaishui is actually not very deep, it didn't take long for Li Chengjing to sink to the bottom of the water, and it was almost impossible to see how far away from the dim water, but under Li Chengjing's eyes, he quickly found the place he was looking for.

Even if he can't see it in his eyes, the rich aura of water is like a bright light in the night sky, guiding Li Chengjing in the direction.

He stepped on the bottom of the water, moving forward quickly, but soon stopped and stared blankly at the scene in front of him.

In front of him, a behemoth dozens of feet long, covered with green lin, with antlers on its head, whiskers under its nose, a head like a camel, and eyes like a rabbit, floated quietly at the bottom of the water, looking at him.

"Dragons?" Li Chengjing blurted out!

Some people died, but not completely......
