It’s the end of the world after becoming a mountain god!
Chapter 209 Water Ghost
The middle-aged couple, each supporting one person, walked down the stairs very slowly.
After helping the two of them to sit down nearby, the couple came over and knelt down with a plop. "Miss, thank you so much for saving our lives. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid Xuanxuan and Xiaoyi would have been... wuwuwu..."
"Don't cry, my dear. Haven't the children been rescued?"
The uncle next to him immediately supported his wife and looked at Wei Yan with gratitude.
Wei Yan was still sitting there wiping his hair, watching the two men kneel down without any reaction.
It was only after Song Tang reminded him that he realized he needed to help the person up.
"Why are you kneeling? Get up." Wei Yan pinched one person's arm with one hand.
"Oh, girl, just let us kneel. We sincerely thank you! We won't feel at ease if we don't kneel!" The two wanted to kneel down again, but Wei Yan did not give them a chance and forcibly pulled them up from the ground.
The moment she exerted force, the couple suddenly felt as if their arms were clamped by iron pliers.
The two people who didn't cry when their child fell into the water before, now burst into tears because of the pain.
After making sure that the two would not kneel down again, Wei Yan let go of his hands and secretly raised his chin towards Song Tang.
Song Tang smiled slightly and secretly gave a thumbs up.
Seeing this, Wei Yan became even more proud. He came to the brother and sister and asked them seriously, "You two are so grown up, and you can fall into the water just like that. Two of you fell into the water at once! I don't know if you are unlucky or just too stupid. Be careful next time. You may not be so lucky every time."
Without waiting for the brother and sister to respond, he returned to the middle-aged couple and smiled widely: "No need to thank me, just give me the money, Chenghui——"
Middle-aged couple: "..."
Everyone thought she was joking and teased her in good faith.
I didn’t expect that Wei Yan actually asked someone to scan his payment code.
Song Tang clearly heard a voice: Two thousand yuan has been transferred to my account via WeChat.
The sound is so loud that it is comparable to that of a mobile phone used by the elderly.
Song Tang suspected that not only them, but probably all the tourists on the first floor had heard it.
The entire first floor seemed to have been paused for several seconds before returning to normal.
"I, we'll leave first!" The middle-aged couple's faces turned red with embarrassment, and they hurriedly left with their son and daughter.
But no matter how you look at this back figure, it looks like he is fleeing in panic.
As soon as the family of four left, the other tourists who had been surrounding them also left in an instant.
Wei Yan himself looked at his balance happily as if nothing had happened.
While humming an unknown tune, he took back the towel and continued to wipe his hair.
"Why did you collect money just now?" Song Tang asked curiously.
When it comes to saving lives, most people are ashamed to mention money or rewards, as if the matter would become tainted if it were mentioned.
It is good and noble to sacrifice oneself to save others, and it is reasonable to receive a certain amount of compensation, at least that's what Song Tang thinks.
But obviously, most people don't think so, so Wei Yan's behavior seems out of place.
The onlookers who had different expressions just now because Wei Yan accepted money are a good proof of this.
Wei Yan put the wet towel on the railing and said with a strange look on his face: "I used to get more money for fishing out corpses from the river. I saved two people and they only gave me 2,000 yuan, which is already a great discount!"
"Retrieving the body?"
Wei Yan nodded: "Yes! I rented Ali's coffin from the sect. Master said that the master and disciple should settle accounts clearly, and the money should not be less than a cent."
In order to pay for the rental of the coffin for Ali, Wei Yan had to rack his brains to find ways to make money.
She accidentally discovered that the job of recovering corpses made a lot of money and few people competed with her for it.
So every summer, she would run to the river near the sect and wait.
"If the people I rescued are still alive, most of them will give me a big red envelope. If I wait until they are dead before fishing them out, I can get more." Wei Yan looked at Song Tang with a puzzled look, "Are living people not more valuable than dead people?"
"A living person is naturally more valuable than a dead person." After Song Tang answered, he looked at Wei Yan nervously.
Wei Yan nodded, and said with sudden enlightenment: "Master also said so, it seems to be true! He told me to save it if I can, and to help fish it out if I can't. As for how much money I can get, it all depends on other people's willingness."
After a few visits, Wei Yan became famous in the neighborhood and became a well-known corpse retriever.
Because there was no body that Wei Yan could not salvage, her work gradually increased.
Since this new "way to make money" came into being, Wei Yan brought more and more money into the sect, and the sect members' current situation of not being able to make ends meet improved a lot.
Later, there were so many "orders" that Wei Yan simply took a group of his fellow apprentices with him to start the job of recovering corpses.
The business has also expanded to several nearby rivers and ponds.
"Besides the master, I am the only one in the sect who is good at speaking, so I am the one who usually asks for money. I am very familiar with this matter!" Wei Yan patted his chest proudly.
Good at speaking? You?
Song Tang looked at Wei Yan and his expression became very strange.
So, the corpse drivers do not interact with each other as the outside world says.
It’s because all the people in this sect are i people, deadbeats!
No wonder Wei Yan habitually communicates with A Li. Maybe other corpse chasers are also like this? So Wei Yan follows suit!
Song Tang thought about it briefly and realized that when people from their sect met each other, they usually looked like they were not very familiar with each other.
Everyone nodded with a straight face, but when they returned to the house, their true colors were revealed and they began chatting and complaining to Yunyang's corpse.
Wouldn't the corpse be equivalent to their hands and figures?
The corner of Song Tang's mouth twitched slightly. Could this be the reason why the outside world misunderstood them as being aloof?
"Did you see anything unusual when you were underwater?" Song Tang was still very concerned about the two black hand prints.
If there was a water ghost underwater, she would have discovered it when she explored the bottom of the water just now.
But the handprints on the ankles of the brother and sister who fell into the water were indeed from water ghosts.
“Killed them!” Wei Yan said as if it was a matter of course, “The water ghosts dragged them to the deep, so the lifeguards couldn’t find them. I dived directly, then crushed the two water ghosts to death and dragged the people back.”
He described killing two water ghosts as nothing more than eating two bowls of rice.
Wei Yan paused with the snack in his hand, put down the snack, slapped his forehead vigorously, and explained, "I almost forgot, you seem to be unable to see or touch ghosts. I have a special physique, not only can I see ghosts, I can also touch them, and they seem to be quite afraid of me."
As a person in the Taoist sect, it is common to be feared by ghosts.
But this is obviously different from Wei Yan's situation. The fear that Wei Yan talked about seemed to be only because of herself.
The two water ghosts that were dragging people were obviously not looking for a replacement, and the aura they left on the brother and sister was also very evil.
Such an evil ghost was actually afraid of Wei Yan? And he was easily crushed to death by Wei Yan.
Song Tang discovered that the petite girl in front of him seemed to have more and more mysteries.
