"Did you feel anything?" Yu Yao's gaze swept across every corner of the park, trying to find something, but she couldn't see anything except a blur of darkness.

Liang Yubai frowned delicately, holding his breath, "You can feel it when you come in, there is a lot of ghosts here."

"It seems that this park is not simple."

Yu Yaozai carefully recalled the floor plan of the entire park, and found out the general direction of the Yelai River.

"It should be a short walk in that direction." Yu Yao pointed in that direction.

Liang Yubai squinted his eyes and stared at that direction, "Indeed, only that place in the whole park has the most ghostly aura, and there must be quite a lot of things hidden in that area."

Yu Yao thought of the soul mentioned by the objects at home, the soul that lived in Yelaihe for many years, and various posts on the forum.

The legend of the mysterious ghost of Yelaihe is true now.

"Go and have a look, be careful." Liang Yubai told Yu Yao while looking around.

Ye Lai Hanoi has been completely blocked, and all facilities have been stopped, no matter whether it is street lights or surveillance, they are not in operation.

The action can be a little more daring as long as you avoid the guards at the gate and sneak into the park.

Based on her memory of the floor plan, Yu Yao took Liang Yubaiwang to the direction of Yelai River.

Along a green path, we arrived at the toll point of Yelai River.

Opposite this artificial lake is the street of the city, and high fences are erected to isolate the park from the outside world.

The lights and noise in the city seemed to be separated by an invisible wall, and all the sounds floated along the lake surface, becoming lighter and shallower, as if the distance had become a little farther away.

The night wind blows across the sparkling lake of the Yelai River, and the lights of the distant streets become fragmented on the lake.

Yu Yao stood on the shore, squatted down and took a look into the lake.

The swaying surface of the water reflected her appearance, and the evening wind blew away the surface of the lake, distorting Yu Yao's reflection.

She stretched out a hand and flicked the water in the lake.

The lake water is bone-chillingly cold, even a bit inconsistent with the current season, like the cold water after the ice breaks in winter, it is so cold that it makes your fingertips tremble.

Yu Yao quickly withdrew her hand, rubbed her cold fingertips, thoughtfully.

She stretched out her hand again, picked up a palm of water, and slowly poured it into the Yelai River.

The splashed water shattered the surface of the lake, making a clear sound, which was especially clear in the silent night.

Liang Yubai, who was observing the environment, turned to look at her, "What are you doing?"

"I'll try this water." Yu Yao moved her hand into the lake again, "It's almost summer, isn't this water a bit cold?"

Liang Yubai responded indifferently, "The lake has a large area, and it's night, so what's so strange?"

Yu Yao smiled and shook off the water droplets on her hands, "It's just pure curiosity."

"How are you? Did you see anything?"

Mentioning this, Liang Yubai's expression was slightly serious, and her eyes never left the lake for a moment.

"There is definitely something in this lake... and it is a soul that has stayed here for many, many years."

"Definitely not a messy master."

Yu Yao was puzzled, "Then it is very fierce?"

Liang Yubai glanced at her coolly, "Whether it is fierce or not, we should be careful, you still have time to play in the water here."

"But I didn't see anything after I came here, and I didn't hear any strange sounds." Yu Yao put on an innocent face and stood up from the shore.

"If only I could hear something..."

The moment the words were spoken, Yu Yao suddenly stopped.

This quiet lake seemed to be responding to her. Before she could finish her sentence, she heard some vague voices.

"What's the matter?" Liang Yubai looked bewildered, and when she saw her talking, she suddenly fell silent halfway through.

"Did you hear?" Yu Yao lowered her voice and asked her softly.

Liang Yubai unconsciously looked around tensely, "I didn't hear anything."

"Hush!" Yu Yao hurriedly silenced her.

As soon as the two fell silent, the vague voice gradually became clearer.

It seemed that a noisy conversation sounded around them, from far and near, without a fixed source of sound.

Yu Yao held her breath and tried her best to distinguish the sound of the noisy conversation.

"The possibility of developing into a dangerous river has also increased."

"Most of the users of our park are office workers and children nearby. This amusement facility is completely unnecessary and the audience is not high."

"Water-related projects need to be developed, wouldn't it be enough to make an artificial lake?"

"The yachts that have recently emerged can be used by customers of any age group. They are safe and convenient. The development area is not large, and they are still under the control of the staff."

The girl confided slowly, her voice was calm and calm, which was very unique among the noisy voices.

"You're new here, what do you know?"

"The amusement facilities on this river course are called Rapid Rapids. Riding a boat across the rapids is both tense and exciting."

"Nowadays, so many office workers live a dull and boring life every day, and have a rare time to rest. This kind of project is the most suitable for them."

"Besides, who said children can't play."

"Our security facilities are very complete, and no accidents will happen."

Facing the male voice's defense, the female voice still maintained her own ideas.

"I still don't think these projects are suitable for our park, nor for the people who live in this area."

She slowly expounded the various dangerous possibilities.

The voice is very soft and soft, and it sounds very abrupt and weird in the silent night, but it doesn't make people nervous.

After the woman's voice disappeared, Yu Yao raised her hand and rubbed her ears.

In the clear section just now, I felt like I was standing by the lake and heard the discussion about the transformation of this lake a long time ago.

Some are not real, but they can be heard clearly.

She thought the sound should end here, but she still caught a short, very soft man's voice.

"It's all the fault of that stinky woman, the whole plan has been ruined."

"This proposal is in charge of our team, and now the whole thing has been changed, and the more I think about it, the more I get annoyed."

Then there was a vague sentence, which slowly disappeared.

Yu Yao stood still and wanted to hear other sounds, but suddenly felt some fluctuations on the lake.

The originally shimmering, very quiet lake surface suddenly had a small ripple.

In one area, the water swayed violently, gurgling and bubbling from the bottom of the lake to float upwards.

It seems like something is coming up.

Yu Yao was stunned, staring straight at the bottom of the lake, and after a long pause, she called Liang Yubai next to her dully.

"Lake, what's that on the lake?"

Liang Yubai looked in the direction she pointed, then turned his head in doubt, "What's the matter?"

Yu Yao's eyes widened, and she was inexplicably anxious, "Can't you see it?"

Liang Yubai wrinkled his face, shook his head, and tried his best to look at the lake, but it seemed that he couldn't see anything.

Yu Yao stood there blankly, staring blankly at the turbulent waters, from the small whirlpool, a figure floated up little by little.

It is a woman wearing a common white-collar dress floating on the water, half of her body is soaked in the water, her head is down, her hair is scattered, and only the blood-stained clothes can be seen. Under the reflection of the city lights in the distance, she looks pale and weird .

This is... a corpse that floated up?

Just as this idea came to mind, the woman who looked like a corpse moved slowly as soon as her eyes floated on the surface of the water. The head submerged in the water lifted up little by little, and the wet hair was covered with water droplets. Like a ball of black wet hair, sticky and a little disgusting.

In an instant, Yu Yao froze in place, her whole body was icy cold, the cold night wind blew through her clothes, and the overflowing cold sweat stuck tightly to her back.As if there was a woman who was also wet behind her, the chill poured from the top of her head to the bottom of her feet, making her feel like she was falling into an ice cellar.

She opened her mouth with difficulty, trying to tell Liang Yubai the situation, but her throat seemed to be choked and she couldn't make a sound.

The trembling pupils reflected the lake surface, watched the woman helplessly, crawled up little by little in a distorted posture, broke the silence of the lake surface, and crawled straight towards her.

Yu Yao was trembling and her face was pale.

Although she has heard many things talk, she has never seen this scene.

His brain was in chaos, and he couldn't react to anything except the fear that filled his whole body.

Looking at the woman, in front of her eyes, she climbed up to the shore little by little.

The distorted posture of the limbs appeared, and it was impossible to stand completely. Under the dim light, the blurred figure walked towards Yu Yao step by step. With every step, dripping water fell on the ground, faintly Jojo, there seems to be black blood mixed in it.

Yu Yao's body trembled uncontrollably.

And Liang Yubai next to him was still unaware, and didn't even know what Yu Yao saw.

The woman walked up to Yu Yao little by little, and the damp breath rushed towards her face, with a little rancid smell, drips of water dripped from her wet hair, and her whole body was drenched.

Her face was blocked by the dark and wet hair, and the light was dim, Yu Yao could only feel her gaze hidden under the hair, her whole head was covered by the wet and messy hair.

Otherwise, at such a short distance, no matter how courageous Yu Yao was, she would have been scared to death on the spot.

She still couldn't make a sound, her throat rolled up and down, swallowing saliva to relieve the tightness of her nerves, her whole body froze, her legs were like lead, and she couldn't move a step.

The wet woman was already standing in front of her, shaking her body as if she might fall down at any moment.

But Yu Yao could only stand where she was, staring straight at the woman in front of her, unable to escape, subconsciously holding her breath, not daring to take a breath.

At this moment, it seemed that even the air was frozen. Her entire head and even her ears were filled with the sound of her violently beating heartbeat, so nervous that it could explode at any time.

One person and one ghost stood face to face for a few seconds, and then the woman spoke slowly.

The voice reached Yu Yao's ears through the cold night. It was a hoarse and cold voice that made the scalp tingle.

"You..." She moved her head slightly, moving up a little bit, like eyes hidden behind her hair, looking at Yu Yao.

"Are you... an office worker?"

Yu Yao was startled by the woman's hoarse voice, her whole body trembled, and she trembled subconsciously, her head was buzzing, blank, and she didn't even know what nonsense the other party was talking about.

What... what office worker?

Ok?

Yu Yao was taken aback suddenly.

Suspecting that she heard it wrong, the weird woman in front of her just now asked her, is she an office worker?

Office workers? ? ?

Yu Yao was at a loss, and opened her mouth, as if she could speak, but she was at a loss for words for a while, and didn't know how to answer.

In such a serious and terrifying scene, she had to answer such an incomprehensible question.

"Are you... an office worker?" The woman asked again, her hoarse voice was not inferior to that of any horror movie dubbing, but Yu Yao couldn't figure out what she asked.

"Eh..." Yu Yao paused hesitantly, then responded in a low voice: "No."

The woman was silent, the water dripping from her hair fell to the ground.

She turned to Liang Yubai who didn't know anything beside her, "Then, is she?"

Yu Yao cast a sidelong glance at Liang Yubai, "Well...probably not."

The woman was quiet again, her voice was a little impatient, but it sounded much smoother than the scary voice before.

"Then what are you doing here in the middle of the night? Hurry up and get out."

She moved her body and tried hard to go back.

"Wait, wait a minute." Yu Yao subconsciously called out to the woman. Although her mind was still empty, she still felt that she couldn't just let her go back.

The weird woman paused, twisted her head slowly, and turned her head slightly, as if she was looking at Yu Yao. Normally, she couldn't see it from this angle, but she did stop.

Yu Yao tried her best to lift her heart, gathered her courage, and took a step forward, wanting to ask her about the recent incident of Ye Laihe, whether it was related to her.

As a result, just as he stepped forward and took a step closer to the woman, she suddenly froze on the spot, gasped for air, and every pore in her body was shivering.

The woman turned her head slightly, the whole face covered by the hair was bloody to a certain extent, half of the eyeball squeezed out from the eye socket, peeping at Yu Yao from under the hair.

The moment she met that eyeball, Yu Yao was terrified, her mind was so blank that she couldn't speak a word.

"Yu Yao! Yu Yao?!" Liang Yubai next to him stretched out his hand and shook the sluggish Yu Yao.

The woman in front of her suddenly turned into a puddle of water, fell to the ground with a crash, and flowed back into the river.

Yu Yao was startled, then shivered immediately, and when she came back to her senses, the woman was no longer in front of her, and the lake was sparkling and very calm, as if everything just now was her fantasy.

"What's the matter with you? You haven't returned after calling you for a long time." Liang Yubai yelled and pushed Yu Yao, and she turned her head to point at the black cat squatting not far away. When you got up, you stood there and talked to yourself again, and you didn't respond to your calls, I was almost scared by the two of you."

Yu Yao pointed at Yelai River in a daze, "Just now a woman floated up from the bottom of the lake and crawled in front of me, didn't you see it?"

Liang Yubai frowned, looked at Yelaihe, and then glanced at Yu Yao, "I really didn't see anything, I guess, it's the legendary Yelaihe's soul who only communicated with you."

"It only appears in front of you." Liang Yubai pressed his folding fan against his chin, lost in thought, "I heard that only souls that have not dissipated for decades have this ability. Is there really a big ghost at the bottom of this lake?"

Yu Yao nodded blankly, "That's right, the rumor of Yelaihe has been around since its establishment, and it's been almost 40 to [-] years now. I only heard about it after I came here. I thought it was just an urban legend. Well, I didn't expect it to exist."

Looking back now, she was still a little timid, it was the first time she was face to face with the soul so close, fear and chill penetrated every pore of her body, she couldn't move a step, she couldn't even make a sound, it was really no joke.

"So, what happened between you and her?" Liang Yubai scanned Yu Yao's whole body, "Are you not injured?"

Yu Yao shook her head, but her heart trembled when she thought about it again.

The cool night wind blew past her back, which was drenched in cold sweat.

"It seems that there is indeed a ghost in this Yelai River." Liang Yubai stared down at the deep lake water, with ripples, and it was bottomless, not knowing what secrets were hidden underneath.

"But she didn't hurt me just now. If it's really this ghost, is there some special condition?" Yu Yao gradually calmed down, recalling the scene just now, a little unbelievable, "The female ghost just asked me if I was an office worker. ?”

"We left after confirming that neither of us is the ghost that caused so many people to disappear?"

Regarding this point, Liang Yubai was also confused, "Office workers? Ghosts usually stay in place and have obsessions. Does that female ghost's obsession have something to do with office workers? So she has been looking for it?"

Liang Yubai was puzzled for a few seconds, then immediately came back to his senses, turned around and quickly pulled Yu Yao up to leave.

"Anyway, it is enough to confirm that there is an incredible soul here, let's leave here first."

"I'm afraid that the other party can make contact with you without knowing it in front of me. If she suddenly has murderous intentions again, we will be in trouble, dangerous and uncertain, absolutely not. Wait for a long time." Liang Yubai turned around and picked up the little black cat on the ground, pulled Yu Yao along and started walking back.

"Indeed..." Yu Yao still had lingering fears when she recalled the contact with the female ghost.

Back near the entrance and exit of the park, Yu Yao remembered the bursts of chatter she had heard before seeing the female ghost. Maybe this clue was useful, so she roughly recounted the content to Liang Yubai.

Thinking about it now, it is estimated that the female ghost let her hear that voice, and it seems to be a discussion about the construction of the Yelai River.

"If you want to know about the weird events that happened on the Yelai River, you must find out what happened to the ghost living here." Liang Yubai pondered for a while, "We have to go back and investigate carefully. That female ghost doesn't want to Talk to you more, you won't learn anything from her, and after you understand the situation, she might be willing to communicate more."

"Most of the souls that have lived in this world for more than ten years have a bad temper, and there is a high possibility of becoming an evil spirit. It's lucky that they didn't hurt you just now."

Liang Yubai sighed lightly, with some trouble on his face, "This is an old ghost who has lived longer than me. I can't expel her by force, and I can't take her away. I can only find a way to solve her problem."

"If it's really a soul that has no self-awareness and kills people randomly, I will find a way to let someone better than me solve it."

She frowned tightly, "But... if that female ghost doesn't want to get in touch with me, I probably won't be able to ask her anything. It's up to you to come here to investigate."

Yu Yao paused, "Huh?"

"Aren't you going to come with me tomorrow?"

Liang Yubai had a good-looking face and a serious face, "I plan to investigate the matter of Yelaihe, there will be more than ten years of resentful souls there, which means that some unspeakable death must have happened, I will check it carefully based on the conversation you just said."

"Come to the river at night... I suggest you wait a little longer and don't come at night. If you have something to worry about and need to investigate, then you have to do it during the day." Liang Yubai stared at Yu Yao seriously, " Don't think she's harmless just because she hasn't hurt you once."

"The resentful souls that stay in the world, unless they are very pure in nature before death, will become more dangerous as time goes by, and they will gradually lose their humanity."

Yu Yao nodded. With Liang Yubai's serious reminder, she didn't dare to come alone at night.

But if there is something she cares about, there must be something, but it is impossible for her to go back and investigate now.

The two hurried back near the entrance and exit of the park with the cat.

According to the previous method, another person was found to perform a segment, but the content was slightly changed, as long as someone distracted the guard's attention, it was enough.

Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the guards, the two slipped out again quietly and returned to the noisy street.

Returning from the extremely quiet Yelaihe to the noisy street, listening to the voices in the shops on both sides and the flow of people passing by, Yu Yao still felt a little unreal, probably because she was a little psychologically shadowed after seeing the female ghost.

"Let's separate here. Be careful when you go back and go to bed early." Liang Yubai stood at the intersection, holding the black cat and saying goodbye to Yu Yao.

"Okay, I'll investigate the matter of Yelaihe when I go back. If you have any new information, please let me know." Yu Yao nodded.

"En." Liang Yubai nodded, turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly thought of something, looked back at Yu Yao, and asked a little worriedly: "Are you okay?"

Yu Yao shook her head, "It's okay, I'm not hurt."

Liang Yubai stared at Yu Yao's face suspiciously for a while, "Although... I know you are very talented, but the first time a person who has lived a normal life for more than ten years sees a ghost, it will leave a lot of psychological shadow. .”

Speaking of this point, Yu Yao is indeed a little scared, maybe she will have nightmares when she goes back at night.

"What you met today is an old ghost of decades. It's quite powerful. Anyway, you have ghost aura on you, and you can easily attract unclean things." Liang Yubai stretched out his hand and took the folding fan he always carried. Throwing it to Yu Yao, she snorted lightly with her somewhat arrogant temperament.

"You can meet that ghost because I'm too weak. In short, I've carried this fan for many years. Ordinary little wandering spirits can't get close to you. Take it for self-defense, and it's also a psychological comfort."

Yu Yao took the fan and touched the bones of the fan. It was different from Yu Yao's common fans. The bones of the fan were white, the color was soft, and the feel was delicate and cool. The scriptures that I don't understand are dotted with flower patterns next to them, which are elegant but not tacky. Holding them in my hand also gives me a different sense of peace of mind.

"This fan is so beautiful." Yu Yao raised the fan and looked at it carefully.

"The ivory fan bone and the scripture fan surface were given to me by my family. I have been carrying them since I was a child. I am used to them. You have to return them to me after a while, so don't break them." Liang Yubai urged.

"Okay." Yu Yao nodded with a smile, and tightly clenched the fan in her hand.

Liang Yubai was probably worried about her, so he gave her personal items for self-defense.

Although she feels a bit like a big lady, she is very nice and kind.

It was the first time she received something from a friend she just met.

Yu Yao stared at Liang Yubai with eyes full of emotion, she was inexplicably taken aback.

"Anyway, I'm leaving first, you should go back to sleep early." Liang Yubai hugged the black cat with furry hair in his arms, ignored its displeasure, turned and walked towards the opposite side of the road.

Yu Yao also held the fan and started walking towards home.

But he didn't realize that in the alley behind the intersection where he was standing just now, a few punks squatting in there smoking a bewildered look.

"Our sister-in-law is so late, why did she appear on the street with other women?"

"And the relationship seems to be pretty good? What's going on?"

The gangsters looked at each other, a little at a loss, the gossip in their minds had been automatically generated one after another, and the green on the boss's head deepened layer after layer.

The little gangster next to him was also incredible and scratched his head thoughtfully.

"Do you want...to report to the boss?"
