"Hold on tight!" the boatman shouted.
I quickly grabbed the rope. Damn, you guys are finally here. I was almost killed in the lake by those four water ghosts!
The boatman, Feng Ling, Qiao Xiaomu, and the others held the rope tightly and pulled me ashore. I wiped my face and looked back. Four water ghosts appeared on the surface of the lake and then sank. Not long after, four floating corpses appeared on the surface of the lake. Yes, they were the bodies of the four water ghosts!
But the scary thing was that there was a group of toads entangled on these four floating corpses, which had already gnawed the corpses into a bloody mess.
They fished the four floating corpses ashore again, but because of the corpse toad, no one dared to approach. They could only put a rope around their heads and drag them away. In short, they put them in a safe place first and wait until tomorrow.
Before leaving the lake, I glanced across the water, but couldn't find the ghost master and his gang of little ghosts. This was very strange. While this gave us some breathing room, the excessive tranquility only made it more terrifying! Furthermore, even the kidney I'd found at the cadaver dig site had fallen into the lake. What a shame.
Feng Ling walked up and said, "Everyone is in the village. Let's go back and rest for a while. Tomorrow morning, I will go outside the village to call for help!"
I took a deep breath, frowned, and asked, "Where's the woman in white I robbed?"
Feng Ling said: "She was there too. I was afraid they would run around, so I locked them all in one room."
The boatman walking in front suddenly stopped and said, "Oh no!" and hurried towards the village.
Even Su Xiaoniu said anxiously: "Go back to the village quickly!"
I don't know what's going on, but seeing how anxious Su Xiaoniu is, something terrible must have happened. We hurried back to the village, and as soon as we got back, we saw a horrible scene.
The whole village was in a mess, with people lying on the ground everywhere, motionless. In the middle, Su Xiaoniu's soul was standing there, holding a naked young girl in her hand. When we arrived, she had already let go of her hand. With a snap, the girl fell directly to the ground without any reaction.
Not only were Feng Ling and Qiao Xiaomu surprised, even I was shocked. How could Su Xiaoniu's spirit suddenly become like this?
Su Xiaoniu said: "Because she is a spirit, after she separated from the Ghost King Festival, she will try every possible way to absorb people's souls to help herself. In other words, she doesn't want to return to my body, she wants to be independent!"
I was stunned for a moment. If this soul is allowed to be independent, will there be two Su Xiaoniu?
"Do you know the saying 'one gains while the other loses'? If she absorbs enough souls and becomes independent, my real body will slowly disappear. Do you want to see this result?" Su Xiaoniu said unhappily.
Nonsense, of course I don’t want to!
The boatman shook his head helplessly and said, "I told you to keep her separate from the others, why did you lock them all up together? Now they're all dead!"
Feng Ling was at a loss, lowering her head and saying, "I... I can't control them. They just follow her. Wherever she goes, they'll follow... I have no choice but to lock them all up together. I didn't expect..."
Qiao Xiaomu also nodded and said, "I can testify to this, you can't blame her!"
At this time, a man rushed out from the dark corner of the wall. He crawled towards us, but unexpectedly, he bumped into me accidentally. I was fine, but he fell to the ground with a thump.
The man jumped to his feet and kowtowed three times to me. "It was too dark, I didn't see you. I'm sorry, please don't blame me. If I can escape this, I will definitely come to your grave to burn paper money!"
After I kowtowed and just stood up, the man saw me sneering at him in the moonlight.
This scared the man so much that he was about to run away. I grabbed him and said, "Damn it! I was just about to look for you, but you walked right into my trap! Where's my bag?"
That's right, this man is none other than the taxi driver who snatched my bag and ran away that day. I didn't expect him to come back to the village again! He just happened to bump into me. If I don't take my bag back now, when will I?
Seeing he was at his wit's end, the taxi driver pointed at the Banyan tree in front of him and said, "I'll just throw your bag there. Everything inside is intact, except the money... the money..."
I threw it to the ground and ran quickly to the banyan tree. Sure enough, I saw my bag thrown there. I felt so sad that I went up to pick up the bag, opened it and checked it. Fortunately, all the magic tools and talismans were there, but my more than 20,000 yuan was missing!
Damn it, he still has a conscience and didn’t sell my magic tools or anything!
At that moment, Su Xiaoniu's spirit seemed to have spotted the taxi driver and the boatman. It dodged and rushed in front of the boatman. Boatman Feng Ling and Qiao Xiaomu decisively threw the taxi driver over. The taxi driver screamed in fear before being grabbed by Su Xiaoniu's spirit by the neck. Soon, the taxi driver, who had just been struggling, suddenly became motionless. He opened his mouth, and a stream of colorful air continuously flowed out, which was sucked in by Su Xiaoniu's spirit.
"Hurry up!" The boatman, along with Feng Ling and Qiao Xiaomu, took the opportunity to bypass Su Xiaoniu's spirit and ran straight out of the village. When passing by me, the boatman said, "It's too late. Those little ghosts behind the village will catch up soon. Let's leave the village first!"
"You go first." I took out the Tianpeng ruler from my bag and rushed towards Su Xiaoniu's soul.
The boatman, Feng Ling and Qiao Xiaomu stood there in a daze, as if they couldn't believe that I dared to rush forward so blatantly.
