Chapter 534： It's not ghosts that kill people!

The corpse scavengers mainly carry out corpse scavengers in the steep river sections. In the rivers in the Sanmen Canyon section, the terrain is so steep that boats cannot go into the river at all. The corpse scavengers use bamboo rafts or small boats, and the most important thing is that they are capable. They are used to living locally, even in the steep river, they can easily survive and salvage the things in the river.

The dead people have existed for a long time, and there are even special reports about their lives. Since they are collecting corpses, they will inevitably be covered with a layer of mystery, saying that they have some magical abilities, such as being able to see ghosts in the water and talking to people who are dead in the water. Regarding these introductions, most of them think that they are curious knowledge and will not take it seriously. After all, corpse hunting is just a means of survival for those people.

Tang Ye heard that the middle-aged man said that the appearance of the floating corpse was the work of a water ghost, and did not refute or mock the middle-aged man's superstition. He contemplated, then looked at the steep terrain and the winding river in the valley. The old man He was holding a bamboo row towards a corpse spinning in a whirlpool. Ling Yun pulled the corner of La Tangye's clothes, her face was a little pitiful, probably because she felt that the atmosphere here and the words of the middle-aged man just now were too gloomy, which made her feel depressed and very uncomfortable.

Tang Ye bent down and touched Lingyun's head, and said, "Do you believe what this uncle said?"

Ling Yun didn't speak with a bitter face, acquiescing to Tang Ye's words.

The middle-aged man was very surprised when he saw it. Actually believe it?

Aura can feel aura, so the dead aura opposite to aura can naturally be felt. She felt the heavy dead air under the river, and knew that there was a powerful femininity. Probably the water ghost mentioned by the middle-aged man was such a femininity, so Ling Yun did not deny the middle-aged man. Because I believe there are these things, I am worried and afraid.

Tang Ye said to her: "It's okay, I'm here. If you can, you can help me."

Ling Yun bit her lip and nodded.

The middle-aged man was completely surprised at Tang Ye and Lingyun. In the past, they said that there were water ghosts in the river, and they were laughed at by others, so they stopped mentioning this. Nowadays, there is a large-scale floating corpse incident. They think that the water ghost is angry, so they have killed many people. But this kind of argument can't make it to the table. They don't want to be laughed at, so they let the experts investigate. Usually, apart from taking money to get the dead body, they just squat by the river in silence.

They are not squatting on the riverside because they are bored. It can be seen that they are all squatting down towards the river, and they all bow their heads. This is to signal to the water ghosts to let the water ghosts not harm them. At the same time, on the bamboo rafts and boats where they fished the corpses, copper coins and willow branches would hang on the bow, and some white paper would be sprinkled during the row of the bamboo rafts. This is for the ghosts not to pester them, Yangliu opens the way, the paper money is sent to the end, and Huang Quan walks well.

Tang Ye looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Why did you say that it was a water ghost murderer?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Tang Ye. The cigarette on his mouth was about to reach the cigarette butt, but he was still reluctant to throw it. He lowered his head again, unable to see his expression, and said, "Look at those people, there is no blood after death. It was just sucked by the water ghost. Also, some younger people have some nails and toenails missing. This is not accidentally scraped off, but eaten by the water ghost. This It’s the habit of water ghosts, everyone knows it, but you just don’t believe it..."

Tang Ye recalled the situation of those floating corpses. Apart from the blood that drained away, some people did indeed have missing nails. Is it really the work of water ghosts?

"Have you seen a water ghost?" Tang Ye asked the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man shook his head quickly and said: "If I see a water ghost, I will definitely die. Ghosts don't like others to see him. If he finds out, he will definitely kill you."

"Then why do you think this was made by a water ghost?" Tang Ye asked again.

"There is crying." The middle-aged man said: "When it comes to night, you will hear the whistling sound, like crying, that is the sound of water ghosts. So at night, if there is no need, don't walk by the river. Even if you go, don’t look at the river bank. Keep your head down and go quickly. Because water ghosts will come to the shore to attract people, they will cry. Some people don’t know, are curious, or worried, just go and watch it. Will be dragged into the water by the water ghost. Now that so many people have died, I am afraid the water ghost is looking for a replacement for the dead ghost, and then set himself free."

Tang Ye frowned and said, "How do you know if it is a water ghost?"

"It's very simple. The water ghost can't get out of the water. You see him sitting on the shore, but his feet are actually soaked in the water. That's why he came out at night. In the daytime, you can see that his feet are soaked I’m in the water. But when it’s dark at night, how can I notice this?" the middle-aged man said.

As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, Ling Yun pulled the corner of La Tangye's clothes, pointed at a man squatting down by the river, and said, "Tang Ye, isn't he a water ghost?"

Tang Ye and the middle-aged man looked towards the bank of the bamboo rafts under the river. A man squatted, but his feet were soaked in shallow water. This is very weird. It's winter now. Why do you want to soak your feet in the water if it's okay? Isn't it cold?

The middle-aged man immediately felt his creeps.

Tang Ye rushed to the suspicious man. The man originally had his back to the crowd, and suddenly seemed to have noticed someone rushing towards him. He turned his head to look, and he was shocked. There was no trace of blood on his face, he was grinning, as if mocking, very strange and scary. When Tang Ye was about to rush to his side, he plunged into the river and disappeared.

Tang Ye failed to catch him.

The people who saw this scene were dumbfounded. Are there really water ghosts? But why did the water ghost come out during the day?

Tang Ye looked stern, and called all the people who had gone into the water to salvage the corpses to stop them. Many people saw the scene just now, and they felt weird. Then they were frightened and afraid to go into the water. After the news spread, the entire resettlement camp became restless and panicked. Isn't there really those dirty things?

Fan Ruoyu hurriedly discussed the matter with Tang Ye. Tang Ye didn't say much, letting Fan Ruoyu take his people to evacuate, the current situation is no longer they can face. Fan Ruoyu disagreed, but after Tang Ye asked the Red Wall for instructions, the Red Wall issued an order to make Fan Ruoyu retreat and give Tang Ye full responsibility.

The people in the camp were basically evacuated, leaving behind scary floating corpses, which seemed to have become an ancient righteous village with a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere.

Ling Yun wanted to leave too, but she was worried about not having Tang Ye by her side, so she followed Tang Ye. She kept holding Tang Ye's hand and asked: "Are you really going to deal with the water ghost?"

"That's not a water ghost." Tang Ye looked cold and stern, and hummed: "If I guessed correctly, it should be an ‘old friend’. The murderer is not a ghost, it’s a human..."
