The rest of the villagers are all standing a little far away from the river, looking at the child who is still open, staring, and opening his mouth, his heart is a little creepy..."

Breathing out again, the middle-aged man calmed down, his eyes were still full of fear, his voice was trembling, and he said,

"...When the child's body was finally brought back, the villagers were a little afraid to move...Although I felt a little nervous in my heart, it was impossible to just let the child be placed by the river. The child's mother was crying all over her body, and the child's father was alone. The child's clothes were soaked in water, and he couldn't hold him up... I helped, lifted the child's feet, and the child's father , carried the child back...

... The little baby was completely cold. I don't know how long he had soaked in the river, and the skin on his ankle was already a little swollen. I pinched his ankle and lifted it, and I always felt that his ankle was The skin on my hands is going to stick to my hands..."

Taking another deep breath, the middle-aged man held the tea and paused again,

In the yard, several people were silent.

On the other end of the phone, Lian Ge didn't say much, just waited quietly,

The two ends of the phone became more and more quiet.

……

"...After carrying the child back to the house, I and some villagers who came out to help didn't stay any longer... Looking at the child, I felt a little creepy in my heart, so we went back..."

Holding the deformed paper cup, the middle-aged man continued,

"...This matter is really weird, evil... Wait until the next day, the villagers discussed it, and they think it's better to invite a gentleman to come over and see what's going on... It's best to give the two drowned The little doll who died in the river is saved, lest...

...Only one household collected some money...the other two households pooled in more money, which can be regarded as the money for saving two little children..."

While speaking, the middle-aged man paused.

On the side, Second Uncle Lian, who walked away and came back with another teapot, couldn't help saying,

"...I'm afraid that everyone in your village thinks it's the fault of those two families. It's a crime that has harmed you, and that's why those two families paid more money."

The middle-aged man was silent for a while, and did not respond.

Second Uncle Lian carried the teapot, took the paper cup in the middle-aged man's hand, refilled some tea in the paper cup, and handed it back to the middle-aged man. Continue to say something, then walk back to the side.

"...collected the money, and that afternoon, the village went to the next town and invited a master back... an old Taoist priest."

Holding the paper cup that had been re-mixed with some tea, the middle-aged man took a sip, calmed down a bit, and continued,

"...When the master was invited back from the town, it was already evening and we arrived at the village. After entertaining the master for a meal, a few villagers and I took the master to that place... ..."

"...At that time, it was already dark, and the river surface was pitch black. A few people were lighting flashlights, and the light seemed to only shine on the river surface...

When he got to the top of the steps going up to the river, the master stopped, looked at the river, and told us, told us, there were indeed water ghosts on the river, and they were two children... …One was trapped in the water and couldn’t break free, and the other was already floating on the water, but hadn’t left yet…”

As the middle-aged man spoke, he paused again, holding the paper cup with tea in his hand and squeezed it tighter.

"... We hurriedly asked, is there any way to save those two little babies, so that they won't commit any more crimes... After listening to our words, the master turned his head to look at the river, and didn't answer for a long time... I hurriedly begged him to think of a way to save the people in the village... He listened to our begging, then turned his head little by little, and looked at me and a few villagers who were about to speak At that time... he suddenly seemed to be hit by something behind him, pushed down, and fell from the steps towards the river, and fell into the river..."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man showed some fear in his eyes again, as if he had seen that horrific scene again,

"... Seeing that master seemed to be pushed into the river, the hearts of the villagers and I were a little scared... Looking at the river, we didn't dare to jump into the river to save the master. A few people, holding hands one by one, walked to the bottom of the steps, and reached out to reach the master in the river... The old master couldn't swim, so he choked a lot of water in the river... But fortunately, fortunately, he fell The place where I went down was not very far from the river bank, and the water was not too urgent that day... After a few more strokes, I reached the master's hand and pulled him out of the river..."

"... When he got up from the river, the old master's expression changed. He looked at the river and the surrounding area, and hurriedly told us... those two water ghosts are too fierce. Not enough, there is no way to save, and there is no way to help us, let us find another way, and then we hurried to leave... We hurriedly asked him to think of a way, and when he saw the small river temple by the river, he Tell us, we can ask the river god in the temple, and after finishing speaking, the master hurried away..."

The middle-aged man said, the paper cup in his hand was pinched more and more out of shape, his eyes were full of fear, he took a deep breath to calm down his emotions,

"...After the matter of the old master, the people in the village feel that this matter is even more strange... No one dares to approach the river again. People dare to go out..."

"...The people in the village discussed it, and they had to go to the river god in the temple of the river according to what the master said when he left...Then the next day, during the day, they called some villagers to bring incense Wax paper money, melons and fruits bypassed the place by the river and went to the river temple... Let an old man in the village talk about the matter in front of the statue of the river temple, and then put the incense and wax The confession was made, and the villagers knelt in front of the River God Temple for a while... After that, every day, the villagers took turns, and several families went to the River God Temple to offer incense and pray to the River God in the River God Temple...

... After that, the village gradually calmed down, and the villagers slowly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it should be the river god in the river god temple who suppressed the water ghost in the river..."

While speaking, the middle-aged man paused, and took a deep breath, but the fear in his eyes hadn't faded away.

"...However, the peace only lasted for less than half a month... Just over a week ago, something happened again..."

The middle-aged man's voice trembled slightly, and his whole body trembled,

"...The river god in the river god temple seems to be unable to hold back..."

"...That night, I went to the River God Temple to refill the incense with a few villagers... When I entered the River God Temple, I saw the statues that were originally offered on the altar..."

The middle-aged man said, trembling all over, with fear in his eyes, he couldn't continue speaking,

In the yard, the old lady listened to the middle-aged man's words, looked at her in a daze, her eyes became more red,

The young man beside the old lady still kept her head down and remained silent.

Chapter 495 The Old Man

"...At this moment, someone in the village could not be found..."

In the yard, the middle-aged man took a deep breath, managed to calm down, and continued, but there was still a hint of fear in his eyes,

"...What I can't find is the village old man who helped carry the coffin for burial. He is the old lady's wife. The one next to him is his son."

As the middle-aged man spoke, he looked at the old lady beside him whose eyes were turning red, and the young man who kept his head bowed in silence.

"...The parents of the two little babies were supposed to come here too, but when they mentioned the two little babies, they still felt very uncomfortable, cried uncontrollably, and couldn't say anything, so they were not allowed to come here... "

"...Master Lian, let this old lady tell you about the next thing."

Hearing the sound, Lian Ge glanced at the other end of the video call, the people in the yard nodded, and didn't say much.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man let out another breath, walked aside,

The old lady clenched her hands tightly, her eyes were flushed, she moved her feet, took half a step forward, and stopped again.

With a hunched body, he slowly raised his head, some pain in his cloudy eyes,

"...Master Lian..."

Opening her mouth, the old lady's accumulated emotions seemed to collapse and burst out,

"...Help, help...Master Lian..."

Muddy tears welled up from her eyes, and the old lady fell to her knees and kowtowed to Lian Ge, like a drowning person, with a pained expression, shouting over and over again.

"Old lady, get up and talk slowly. Second uncle, help me get this old lady up."

Looking at the old lady on the other end of the video call who was kneeling on the ground, Lian Ge paused before saying something, then turned his gaze to look at his second uncle,

Uncle Lian heard this, and hurried forward to help the old lady up, and the middle-aged man on the side also hurriedly helped, and the young man also took a step forward, silently, and supported his mother's other hand.

Several people supported the crying old lady who seemed to have no strength left.

Standing up again, after an emotional outburst, the old lady calmed down a bit, but her eyes were still red,

"...Excuse me, Master Lian, old lady, I..."

Standing firm, the old lady crouched down, opened her mouth again, and said aloud,

"Speak slowly."

With a calm tone, he shook his head slightly, and Lian Ge spoke again.

……

"...That was nine days ago, the baby in the room said that he would come back at night... and the baby likes to eat gallbladder tofu..."

The old lady fell silent for a while, her eyes were red, and she spoke aloud,

Turning her head slowly, the old lady looked at the young man beside her,

The young man still kept his head down, silent,

"...His father, although he often has a cold face and a hard mouth when facing his own child, but ah...in fact, he still loves his son in his heart...I just hung up the phone, and he told me Tell me, hurry up to soak some beans, grind beans later, and make some tofu...It was late afternoon and evening, I said that there is no time to win...he said, there is no time to eat tonight , Tomorrow morning, tomorrow noon can also eat... I know, he is afraid, baby, and he will only come back again, and stay in the house for a day."

Turning back slowly, the old lady bent her body and said, her eyes became more red,

"... I agreed, go to soak the beans, he, went to the house, took a pole, picked up two buckets to go out... the river in the village, when there is no water, no accidents...then The river water is clear, it is the mountain spring water collected from the mountain, it is used to make tofu, it is the best... From the time when the baby was small, to the time when the baby is older, the water used to make tofu in the house is all that water ...He was going to the river, and brought back two buckets of water... I quickly stopped him, and I said that the river is nowhere to go now...

...But he has a stubborn temper, so let me leave it alone...He has always been stubborn, and I can't touch him all the time...It was the same before, when I went to carry the coffin of the drowned baby, I told him not to go , tell him not to go..."

As the old lady spoke, her eye sockets became redder, and some tears accumulated in her cloudy eyes.

"...He insisted on going, even if he died... But when he came back, his face changed..."

There was some pain on her face, the old lady continued,

"...This time, this time is the same... Smelly temper is so stubborn, no matter how much I persuade him, I can't persuade him. The more I persuade him, the more he will go... Finally, I didn't stop him, so I let him go...

... At that time, I was also thinking that after the second doll drowned, the village had been living in peace for more than half a month. I guessed that it was the River God Bodhisattva who suppressed it... At that time, It's not completely dark yet... My house is not far from the door, and we're about to go down to the slope beside the river, across the village, and the place where the accident happened is still so far away, why can't he go there... "

As she spoke, the old lady's voice trembled slightly.

"...As soon as he went out, I took out the beans in the house. After picking and picking, I took the beans to soak. After soaking the beans there, I went to move out the small stone mill. , was washed...the more I washed the stone mill, the more flustered I became...Because, he should have come back long ago... At first I was wondering if I met someone on the road, so I was delayed talking ... But my stone mill has been washed and placed, and he hasn't come back... At this time, all the children in the house came back... When they came back, I asked him where the old man went... I sat Well, I couldn’t sit still any longer, so I hurried out of the house to go down to the riverside and go up the slope to see through the house... As a result, no one was there, and the barrel, the barrel was not there... "

The old lady's face was in pain, and tears accumulated in the muddy eyes, and then poured out from the reddened eye sockets,

"...not here, not here anymore...I'll look for it, I'll look for it, I'll look for it..."

The old lady was trembling and in pain, and some of them couldn't speak anymore.

"... Let me do the talking. Sanba, help your mother up."

Seeing this, the middle-aged man at the side hurried forward again, said something, then turned around, and greeted the young man,

The young man heard the sound, but didn't make a sound. He remained silent, and helped the old lady who was a little unsteady.

The middle-aged man turned his head back again, continued what the old lady said, and continued,

"...Then, the two mothers and sons were in the houses of the villagers, looking for them one by one, and some villagers also helped, searching all over the village... At this time, the villagers called me... …

…When I received the call, I was in that temple, looking at the broken statue in front of my feet on the ground, I felt that something was wrong… I’m afraid it’s, I’m afraid it’s…”

The middle-aged man said, with a hint of fear in his eyes,

"...I was on the phone, and I hurried back with people... At this time, the villagers have searched the entire village, but they can't find it...there is only one place left, which is the Temple of the River On the side, by the river, no one dares to go... Although I don't dare to go there, I still take people and run to that place..."

"...As expected, as expected..."

As the middle-aged man spoke, his whole body trembled slightly, and there was some fear in his eyes,

"...In that place, on the edge of the river temple, on the steps leading from the river to the river, there are two buckets...on the water...on the water...the old man's body is there Lie on your stomach, on the water... just like the little doll before..."

Chapter 496 System Tasks

"...Help, help, Master Lian..."

Beside, the old lady who was being supported knelt down again, begging and crying, with tears pouring out of her cloudy eyes,

"...I beg Master Lian to save him, please save him...don't let him, don't let him do harm again..."

Seeming to have exhausted all her strength, the old lady cried and begged Lian Ge,

"... I beg Master Lian to save him, please save him..."

"...Master Lian, Master Lian, please come back and save the people in our village, otherwise I'm afraid...no one in the village dares to approach that river, but it's the same as before, the old man is still, still...please Master Lian, please save our village..."

The middle-aged man followed closely, begging Lian Ge,

"...Master Lian, please save us..."

Immediately afterwards, the middle-aged man also knelt down,

……

On the other side of the video call, I glanced at the other end of the phone. In the courtyard, there was an old lady kneeling with a painful expression on her face, a middle-aged man who was still trembling slightly, and a man beside him who was still standing with his head down. young people,

Lian Ge looked away.

"……Ding."

At this moment, an alert sounded,

The long-lost system issued a reminder.
