Grass head fairy's breaking evil

Chapter 31 Searching for the whereabouts of water ghosts

Brother Wu and I came to the river after breakfast.

There were few people by the river in the morning, but after noon, the river was warmed by the sun, and more people came to bathe and wash clothes.Therefore, the salvage of the corpse yesterday was also carried out when there were few people in the morning.

Brother Wu started to take off his clothes and was about to go into the water. I also wanted to go down with him, but he stopped me.He said that the water was too cold in the morning, and I would easily catch a cold when I went down, so he asked me to stay obediently on the shore and show him my clothes.

I couldn't beat him, so I had to say, I'll come in this afternoon.He just smiled, neither agreeing nor refusing.

He stripped naked except for a pair of underwear and jumped into the water.

Not to mention, his water skills are really good!Swimming underwater for so long before surfacing for air.It's a pity that he plunged into the water several times, but failed to find anything suspicious.

Seeing that he had been in the water for more than an hour, I hurriedly called him ashore and told him to speak later.

When he landed, I quickly put the prepared big bath towel on him, and then took a small towel to dry his hair.

"Don't say it, it's really cold." He wrapped himself in a towel and said with a smile.

In fact, his physique is really good, so he just said that he was cold. If it were someone else, his lips would have turned purple and his teeth would have chattered.

Generally speaking, it is most comfortable to bathe in the river in the evening, because the river water has been exposed to the sun for a day, and that is the warmest time.People with my physique would tremble from the cold even if they entered the water for more than an hour in the afternoon.Therefore, the fact that he was still shivering after entering the water in the morning shows that Wu Ge's physical fitness is really nothing to say.

"What on earth will that thing be attached to?" Even the lucky and well-informed Fifth Brother didn't notice the abnormality at the bottom of the river, and I was a little discouraged.

Fifth Brother said: "I don't know, but I think it can't be stones. The bottom of the river is basically all stones. If there are any stones that are different from the stones, it is likely to be the case."

I asked him: "Then we can only grope bit by bit?"

Even if the area covered by the shadow of this mountain is used to determine the area where the water ghost is located, it is at least 400 meters long, plus the 20-meter-wide river surface, the search area is a bit large.

Fifth Brother also sighed, "That's the only way to do it! Water ghosts are the hardest to catch, because underwater is the world of water ghosts, and even the immortals may not be able to defeat them."

No wonder Fifth Brother was worried that something would happen to me when I went into the water. It turned out that even if Hu Changhe knew how to swim, he might not be able to match the power of the water ghost underwater.

"Then the two of us will go from upstream to downstream and investigate bit by bit!" There is no other way but to do this, and I am afraid it will take a few days of work.

I asked Brother Wu why he said that the water ghost was attached to something. Brother Wu said that it must be trapped to find someone to replace itself, otherwise it is just an ordinary water ghost, even if it hurts people, there is no need to let it go. Man replaces himself.

After hearing what he said, I just want to say that the world of ghosts is so complicated that there are so many kinds.It would be great if they could go to reincarnation obediently, but some of them will stay in the human world and cause trouble for human beings.

Fifth Brother rested for a while, then went down into the water to look for it.But until noon, we found nothing.After going back to have a meal, we drove the car over.In order to catch this water ghost, we have also prepared some things. If we catch it, we must deal with it immediately.

We got out of the car and were about to go down the embankment when a car drove over.Take a closer look, it's Brother Deng coming.

After he greeted us, he directly handed a thick envelope to Brother Wu. Needless to say, he could guess that it was the reward from his leader.Brother Wu was not polite and accepted it directly.

Brother Deng looked at us, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Can I ask a question?"

Fifth Brother: "You say."

"I used to hear the old man say that there is a scapegoat in this river. Is it true?"

Fifth Brother thought about it, then nodded.

Brother Deng was startled, and then sighed, "That's right... Actually, our leader asked me to ask. He said, if there is really something bad, I hope Mr. Wei can get rid of it. If you need any help, just ask."

I interjected, "Fifth brother is working on this. We came here early in the morning, but it didn't go well."

Brother Deng was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but glance at Fifth Brother, then patted him on the shoulder, "Good job, it's just like the rumors! If you need help, just tell me, I'm sure I can help!"

Brother Wu smiled and said, "Thank you, but you can't help with this matter, we can only take our time on our own."

"Okay, then you all pay attention to safety!"

After Brother Deng left, Brother Fifth and I continued to prepare to go into the water.

Although the fifth brother did not agree with me to go into the water, but this time I was very firm.I said, with Hu Changhe by my side and him watching from the bank, I'm sure I'll be fine.

He was relieved to hear me say that, but he still told me not to dive for too long.After I nodded in agreement, I did some warm-up exercises and then went into the water in my swimming trunks.

Despite the hot weather, the water is still a bit cold, and it takes a while to get used to it.After putting my whole body into the water, I adjusted to the water temperature before I swam into the deep water.

In fact, although my family lives by the river, I was a landlubber when I was a child.Because my mother didn't let me go into the water, she always said that the river was dangerous, and she only let me splash in the bathtub when it was hot.

At that time, I was very envious when I watched the children in the neighborhood go into the water to play.Finally, one time, I sneaked to the river with my classmates and played happily for a while, but when my mother found out, she beat me up with a broom.I still remember that she was crying while beating me at the time, and it was only when I grew up that I realized that my actions at that time frightened her, and she was really afraid that I would risk my life if I was not careful.

As for why I got into the water again later, it was also because she was too worried.Once she read the news that a bus was washed into the river next to it by a sudden flash flood. Although the passengers got out of the car, many of them drowned because they couldn't swim.So, she felt that learning to swim would give her more assurance of survival, so she asked an older brother from a neighbor to teach me how to swim.Therefore, I learned to swim.

After I got into the water, Hu Changhe no longer stayed on my shoulder, but lay on top of my head.When I dive into the water, it will stand on the surface and wait for me.It doesn't like to go into the water, but it can't be too far away from me, so it follows me in this form.

Looking up from under the water, you will see a white fur fox squatting on the water, staring at me closely with dark eyes.This feeling of being protected by someone is very reassuring.

Now, there is one more person on the shore watching my movements all the time, what else do I have to be afraid of?

I plunged into the water and carefully checked the situation at the bottom of the river through the water mirror.

The river water is still transparent, and the visibility is still very high when it is illuminated by the sun.Some floating particles, like dust in the sun, floated around in the turquoise water.There are stones of different sizes on the bottom of the river, most of which are covered with thin moss.If you step on it with bare feet, you will feel slippery, and you will slip if you are not careful.Therefore, bathing with bare feet is not a good idea for people with poor water quality.

I snorkeled underwater for a while, and when the suffocation became more and more serious, I quickly popped out of the water and took a big breath.When he recovered, he took another deep breath and dived underwater.After repeated several times, my physical strength was almost exhausted, but I got nothing, so I had no choice but to go ashore first.

After a few swims, I was really tired, so I turned over and lay on my back on the water, kicking the water with my feet to push my body to the shore.This has always been the method I use when my physical strength is exhausted. It can be regarded as a kind of backstroke.

When we got ashore, Fifth Brother handed me the bath towel with a smile, and said, "Okay, I swam well, and I know I'm tired and lie down for a while!"

I smiled and said, "I told you that you don't have to worry about it, so I'll write the letter now, right?"

He asked again: "Did the fox fairy go into the water with you?"

I pointed to the top of my head and said, "No, it stayed on the surface and waited for me when I dived."

The fifth brother was startled, looked at the top of my head, and said, "Since it doesn't follow you into the water, then don't go to the deep water area. You are in charge of the shallow water, and I am in charge of the deep water!"

"It's fine, I..."

"Ok, deal!"

The boss glared at me, so I had no choice but to shut up obediently.

I rested on the shore, and Fifth Brother went into the water to continue searching.It may be because the river water has become warmer. He has been in the river for an hour this time, and he has no intention of coming up.I had almost rested, so I also went into the water.

According to what he said, I only searched in places where the water was so shallow that it was not over my neck.I was looking carefully at the bottom of the water, and suddenly found a foreign object. After thinking about it, I got out of the water and planned to ask Brother Wu.

Seeing that Fifth Brother was gone, I yelled, "Fifth Brother——"

Not far away, a man emerged from the water, wiped the water off his face with his hand, and replied, "What's wrong?"

"Here's a shoe, could it be what we're looking for?" I swear, I asked seriously.

Fifth Brother was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, "Are you kidding me? Why are shoes what we're looking for?"

"It's what you said, maybe it's different from the stone." I couldn't help muttering.

"I didn't expect there to be shoes at the bottom of the water! Besides, which water ghost will attach to the shoes, wouldn't it be a shoe master?"

He swam over, teased me, and put his arm casually on my shoulder.I was stepping on the water, and I was pushed into the water by him. Fortunately, the water was not deep, and my head was still exposed when I stood up straight.He probably didn't expect this either, so he quickly pulled me up and said "I'm sorry, I'm sorry".

"I drink a lot of water. Next time you do this again, I guess I'll have to drink a few sips of water." I was really shocked just now, so I took this opportunity to tease him.

When someone stepped on the water, they could expose their entire upper body, and it would be nice for some to show their heads.I belong to the kind that can barely expose my shoulders, but my legs are weak, and I sank under the pressure of his arms.

Brother Wu apologized again, and I said it was all right, so we swam ashore together.

The sun had been blocked by the top of the mountain, and the visibility in the water began to decline. We couldn't continue, so we packed up and went back home.

Before leaving, Fifth Brother looked at the mountains and the water, and sighed: "Such a beautiful place, water ghosts can no longer be allowed to do evil here!"

I nodded in agreement.
