It was the talisman that the senior brother had seen similar to fireworks before, Zhang Lingyun wrote down the way the rune was written, and he made a slight change to use it as a signal symbol when calling for help.

Xiao Huo smiled and covered the talisman placed in the placket, and walked slowly in the woods, a few miles away from the intermittent noisy noise, Xiao Huo curiously looked for the source of the sound and sneaked over, "Save people~, come and help people~," Several young people on the bank of the river panicked and shouted for help, Xiao Huo's figure flashed to the vicinity of several people, and looked in the direction they gestured, more than forty meters away from the river bank, there was a straight and desperate splashing figure.

"Shaoxia, please, the one in the water is my brother, please save him...... A young man with clear eyebrows seemed to see a savior, grabbing Xiaohuo's arm and begging, and kneeling down for Xiaohuo while talking.

"Okay, okay, I didn't say I wouldn't save him," Xiao Huo saw that someone was drowning to save people's hearts, ignoring Chi Yan's warning, quickly took off his robe to cover his shame with only shorts, and jumped into the turbulent river.

The people present breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time, and thanked Xiaohuo with appreciation and adoration for his heroic act, but just as Xiaohuo was dressed and ready to go back, he heard a bombshell news from the drowning man.

"Brother, something grabbed my foot just now, I'm the best in the nearby stockade, so I won't drown!" As soon as the drowning man regained some strength, he hurriedly defended himself, for fear that his behavior just now would become a talking point for his friends in the small talk.

"Ah~, ah...... ," several people gathered together let out a burst of exclamations, Xiao Huo was puzzled in his heart, and quickly walked closer to check, this glance frightened Xiao Huo and gasped, the drowning man lifted his trouser leg in order to prove his words, and everyone found that the drowning boy's knee actually had a palm print of a blue and purple slender finger, which was definitely not a human handprint according to the size and shape of the palm.

"I've heard that there have been drowning people downstream in recent days, and they have searched the riverside and still haven't found anyone," the boy cautiously recounted the secret he had overheard.

"Water Monster...... , it must be that the mountain god is angry and has sent a water monster to warn us!" I don't know who shouted such a sentence, several onlookers immediately panicked, even the drowning person closed his mouth, and the frightened look in the eyes of several people, as if they were frightened by the water monster's statement, grabbed their clothes and disappeared as soon as they slipped into smoke.

Chiyan was flipping the grilled fish in the fire, his eyes kept sweeping in the direction of the woods, but he never saw Xiaohuo's figure, and the breath in his stomach was almost up to his throat.

"I'm back!" Xiao Huo put down a few cleaned pheasants, found that Chi Yan's face was a little wrong, and kindly asked, "Do you don't like to eat chicken?" or did I make you angry again?"

"Where did you kid go, you still know how to come back after such a long time!" Chi Yan finally waited for Xiao Huo to run back, and admonished in a dejected tone.

"I didn't run around, I just saved someone...... Xiaohuo breathed a sigh of relief, and then he recounted what he had just encountered.

"Have you found any traces of other humans in the water?" Listening to Xiaohuo tell him a rough idea of what happened, Zhang Lingyun also had his own considerations in his heart.

"I don't know if there's anyone, there's not even fish around!"

"It is impossible for a normal human to hold his breath for so long, and it is impossible to catch a person who desperately resists underwater, and it is impossible to leave a trace of blue and purple in a short period of time," Zhang Lingyun listened to what Xiao Huo said, and was already sure that there was some kind of demon and monster under the water, but his true identity was not yet certain.

"It's just a water monster, don't make a fuss, eat it while it's hot," Chiyan handed the grilled fish to the two of them, and ate it with a calm expression.

"As a Protoss, why don't you go to kill demons and protect the safety of the party?" Xiao Huo put the grilled fish aside, looking at Chi Yan with a look of surprise.

"I'm a god, and I have a lot of important things to deal with, so I'm very busy, okay, are so many immortal cultivators in the human world all dead?" Chi Yan stopped eating fish in his hand, and looked at the two people in front of him with a slightly angry expression.

"Brother Lingyun, he allowed the water monster to commit murder and hurt innocent lives, are you just letting it go?" Xiao Huo was short of breath and pointed at Chiyan with a flushed face, hoping that Zhang Lingyun would uphold justice for himself.

"Xiaohuo, this world is not only the world of human beings, but also the world where birds and beasts, demons and monsters live, when we do not find out the truth, we are not qualified to deprive any living beings of the right to live," Zhang Lingyun has a warm male image of the brother next door, popularizing some survival theories for this simple child.

"How do you know that the drowning man is innocent? The mortal world is different from ours, everyone has his own life, life and death are his own, and you will gradually understand this truth in the future!" Red Flame moved away from the fire and pulled out the roast chicken wrapped in yellow mud from underneath.

"But...... "The first time Xiaohuo heard such a theory, he actually felt that Chiyan's words had some truth, but he still felt very uncomfortable in letting the water monster commit murder.

"Legend has it that in ancient times, the origin of the river, there were some monsters born by the water, and grew by the water, they had turtle-like back armor, looked like apes and like seven or eight years old children, and the hands and feet were connected to each other by the pu, the ancients called them 'water spirits' or 'insect children', and later people gave them more elegant names 'kappa' or 'river boys', they generally lived in more remote places, and would drag people who invaded his territory into the water and drowned, some extreme' Kappa will drag the people on the shore into the water and drown, "The monster that can do this in Red Flame's memory is none other than the kappa."

"No, is it reliable for you to conclude that the so-called kappa did it just by arresting people in the river?"

Zhang Lingyun is full of confidence in this former god general, but he is also an old god who has lived for thousands of years, although Chiyan has been imprisoned, but he must have eaten several times more salt than the food he ate, Zhang Lingyun casually broke off a chicken leg and ate it with relish, with an attitude of listening and watching a good show.

"You yourself said that the drowning man has a slender bruise mark on his knee, and the 'kappa' will get a steady supply of energy as long as there is water, not to mention that he is less than three feet tall but has infinite strength, and has the strength to drag away several adult buffaloes, so he can leave a bruise mark on the drowning man's knee in an instant," Chiyankou Ruohanghe analyzed the incident.

"Brother Chiyan, you must know how to eliminate that scourge if you are so powerful!" Xiaohuo nodded again and again as he agreed with Chiyan's judgment, and wondered if he could eliminate the kappa by himself.

"Why do you have to get along with this 'kappa', you bastard? Do you want to do it yourself? Don't let them eat it as a sweet," Chi Yan frowned slightly, tilting his head, and glanced at Xiao Huo with a look of contempt.

"Hmph~, I'm also the king of werewolves, I will never be intimidated by this little 'kappa', tomorrow I will go into the water and catch him for you to roast and eat," Xiaohuo felt that he was being despised and had nowhere to vent his anger, so he had to turn his grief and anger into appetite, and in an instant, the food in front of him was only a pile of bones.

"Coming out to experience is to protect the safety of one party, anyway, it's not interesting to stay, the right is for Xiaohuo to find a practice to play, in case Xiaohuo's strength is super long and wins!" Zhang Lingyun knew that the simple Xiaohuo would definitely take care of this matter, so he let the two of them distinguish there, if Xiaohuo obeyed Chiyan's opinion and watched this matter, it would not be too late for him to find out the cause of the matter himself.

"Alas...... , whatever you want!" Chi Yan had already seen through Zhang Lingyun's careful thoughts, but he had monitored the demon clan for thousands of years when he was in the fairy world, and he had already had an inexplicable good impression of the demons and monsters, but unfortunately now that he is a person with a contract, he has to stand in the position of the contractor, since the two of them insist on getting rid of this 'kappa' out of pity, then the next thing will be natural.

"Where are we going to find 'kappa' now?" Xiao Huo was simple-minded, didn't taste the subtext of Chiyan's words at all, stood up and slapped his robe before leaving.

"The recent strong rain is very suitable for it to come out to patrol the site, that's why so many people have accidentally drowned, and now there are many people around here who are vigilant and should not go into the water to find death at will, if you want to find them, just walk around the bank of this river, the more sparsely populated places, the more likely you are to meet them," Chi Yan shook his head helplessly at the energetic four-colored Xiaohuo, but he still patiently calmed down.

The energetic Xiaohuo pulled Zhang Lingyun and began to walk along the riverbank, the two talked and laughed and turned cautiously for nearly an hour, but they didn't even find a mosquito, Xiaohuo had a long period of nervous tension and energy consumption, and his stomach was already rumbling and began to call, "Brother Lingyun, is Chiyan's words reliable? How can you still meet 'kappa' for so long?" Xiaohuo touched Pingping's stomach and stopped, and began to question whether Chiyan was deliberately playing tricks on himself.

"It's probably the invisible spiritual power fluctuations in our bodies that make them afraid to approach,"

Since Zhang Lingyun came out of the Taiping Palace, he has consciously suppressed his spiritual veins, but this innate spirit gathering physique is extraordinary, even if he closes his knowledge of the sea and no longer cultivates, but this aura affinity of up to ninety percent is not a decoration, as long as Zhang Lingyun moves, the aura around him will revolve around him.

"Hmm...... , Why don't we look for it separately, will the chances be greater, in case there is danger, there is also the talisman that Brother Lingyun gave me,"
