Chapter 53 Don’t Be an Unlucky Person (3)

"Good, good, good! You are worthy of being the person and ghost I have chosen!" She smiled, very satisfied with his flattery, and pointed at the pile of glittering gold and said, "See? That is the treasure of this Lord River God. From now on, you will guard here and help me take good care of it. Don't lose a single bit of it, understand?"

The water ghost's sharp fingertips shrank. He didn't believe that what she said was so simple. After thinking about it quickly, he tentatively said, "I understand what you mean, sir. No one can take away your treasure..." He emphasized the word "people".

He Shan smiled and nodded, his tone quite meaningful: "I believe you can do it, right?"

Water ghost: “…” Lord River God is so vicious! Although he himself has committed murder, he despises this behavior of being forced to harm the people!

The next moment, he said loudly and fiercely: "Of course!"

Heshan patted his shoulder, smiled and disappeared from his sight, but the water ghost knew that she was watching him at every corner of the river to see if he was working hard.

The water ghost straightened his body, floated to the side of the gold, and looked through the water towards the shore, eagerly hoping that someone would be able to recognize the gold, and then he could make a contribution!

But the water ghost kept waiting, and it had been almost three months. It was obvious that the place where his heart was missing was cold, and the ghost was becoming more and more anxious.

He swam back and forth, swam back and forth, looking eagerly, and finally saw someone.

*

During this half month, countless families raised white sails, wrapped those little people in mats and sent them up the mountain. They shed countless tears on the way. They were sad and in pain, but they didn't dare to cry out loud, for fear that the evil river god would come out.

After this happened, some people thought about fleeing the village, but the world was full of monsters and it was unsafe to run anywhere. They heard that in a village in the neighboring county, all the people were eaten by monsters. They were so poor, and if they ran away, they would probably starve to death before they encountered any monsters.

Finally, the villagers lived in fear for several days. Seeing that Heshan did not come out to kill them, they felt relieved. After sending the children up the mountain, they began tentative activities, but they did not dare to get close to the river.

It was not until three months later that a man came down from the mountain opposite the river while chopping wood. When he passed halfway up the mountain, he couldn't help but look towards the river. As a result, the golden light reflected from the sunlight stung his eyes. He was startled, then leaned forward and looked more closely. There seemed to be gold in the river!

As a poor countryman, he had never seen such good things before and his breathing became rapid. He suppressed his excitement and could not wait to go home and tell his family about it. When his family members heard it, they were as excited as he was. They looked at each other, and cruelty and greed emerged in their eyes.

That was gold. Maybe it was the river god's compensation for not saving the children in the village in time? They had such wishful thinking.

Several people went out immediately. Some people saw them and wondered why they were going out at noon. The family's faces turned red and they made a clumsy excuse and left quickly. They had to get the gold back when no one else knew, otherwise if they went too late, they would not get any share. After all, his child was not dead.

They quickly approached the creek, but were still a little hesitant when they got close. After all, they had been swept into the creek by the mighty river god that day.

But after taking two more steps forward, he really saw gold in the water.

They quickened their pace in excitement. At this moment, the fear brought by the Heshan Mountain was suppressed by greed. Their eyes were full of desire for money. Their gazes were obsessed, and they had already imagined in their heads that after they had all the gold, they would live a life of luxury, live in a big house, have servants everywhere, and live as happy as gods.

"Korean wife! Hurry!" The white-haired old man pointed anxiously at the river, and then stuffed the cloth bag in his hand to her.

"Go pick it up quickly!" The other family members also looked at the woman with sharp eyes.

The Korean wife finally reacted, her cheeks trembled, she swallowed, and turned her eyes to the man. However, he didn't think there was anything wrong. His wife was not as important as gold. He couldn't go to such a dangerous place.

Since it was a matter of her own life, the Korean wife was still cautious. She looked around, then picked up a long wooden stick and tentatively stretched it into the river.

When the stick was put into the water, Bangzi and his family members stepped back at the same time, using the big trees nearby to hide their bodies, and prepared to escape.

In the water in front of them, the water ghost's head was almost out of the water. He followed it closely with his eyes, and held back when the wooden stick poked down.

The Korean wife's heart was in her throat. She wanted to run away for a moment, but when she thought of the noble lady wearing gold and silver in her imagination, she forced herself to hold back. After all, it was all greed that was at work.

The water surface was calm and she breathed a sigh of relief. She took a few steps forward and stretched out her arms. She didn't dare to go into the water to fish it out, so she thought of using a stick to hook it up.

The water ghost took a look and found that the gold was quite far away and he definitely couldn't hook it.

Seeing that she was still trying hard, the Koreans and their families behind her were unhappy. They shouted anxiously, "Korean wife, what are you doing! Go down and get it out!"

The Korean wife turned her back to them and pouted in dissatisfaction, then replied in a low voice: "I know, I know, right away"

Fearing a beating, she didn't delay any longer. She quickly rolled up her trouser legs and walked into the water, begging the river god for mercy as she walked.

She walked deeper and deeper, and the gold shone brighter and brighter in the sunlight. All her attention was focused on it at the moment, so she naturally did not notice the ripples in the water at her feet.

"what--"

The Korean family hiding on the shore was startled and took a few steps back, but they heard the Korean wife groan twice and stand up from the water.

It turned out that he had slipped. Several people breathed a sigh of relief and then watched the Korean wife bend down and pick up the gold. It seemed a little heavy and she couldn't even straighten her body.

Their hearts became even more excited.

"Bangzi, I can't hold it, come and help me." The Bangzi wife's voice was a little low. There was still a lot of gold in her arms that she couldn't hold and fell down, which made people feel sorry when they saw it.

When Bangzi heard the cry for help, he hesitated for only 0.1 second. He ran over quickly, picked up the fallen gold, and grabbed a handful from the river.

There are slight ripples on the bottom of the water.

"Dad, there's still a lot of gold! Come too!"

Seeing that both of them were fine, the Korean father naturally relaxed his guard, and his wrinkled old face smiled even more deeply: "Here they come!"

He didn't even roll up his trouser legs and impatiently got closer to his son and daughter-in-law. However, when he got closer, he was horrified to find that the expressions on his son and daughter-in-law's faces were very stiff, and their eyes were as terrified as his.

Just as the Korean father was about to turn around and run away, he found that 'he' had moved, and like his son, he bent down and picked up a handful of gold, then pretended to be exhausted and called his old wife and other children, and they were all tricked down one by one.

Fortunately, his youngest son was smart enough to realize something was wrong when his "old wife" coaxed him. Why did all the family members go into the water? He closed his eyes tremblingly and opened them again, only to find that all the family members were standing in the water looking at him strangely, asking him to go down and fish for gold.

"Ah—" He screamed in fear, turned around and crawled away, his family members behind him still calling him, "Dongzi, Dongzi, come quickly..."

Scalp numbness.
