New White Snake Asking Immortals

Chapter 1426 Dark Shadow

The fisherman girl led the ducks and geese to the hiding valley.

The mountains are connected to the lake, with steep slopes and strange peaks and rocks. You can take a boat around the rocks that penetrate the lake. The rocks are as narrow as a knife blade. There is a narrow valley entrance close to the rocks. There are steep cliffs on both sides, which is very hidden. In the past, There was once a group of water thieves who occupied the valley and caused trouble in the surrounding waters. After the government suppressed the water thieves, the place became deserted.

There is a giant tree growing crookedly by the water in the valley. The crown of the tree is close to the water and blocking the view.

A head popped up from the gloomy canopy of the tree, waving from a distance.

"Eiko is here!"

The girl heard her sister from the same village calling her, and the familiar voice made her tense heart relax.

Raise your arms and wave toward the tree canopy.

"Sister Lan"

I rowed the ducks through the canopy of the trees and saw seven or eight fishing boats hidden in the grass. There were also two hunting dogs on the top of the stone wall on the shore. I didn't expect that they escaped and took the hunting dogs with them. It was just the right time to save the vigil at night and not worry about wild beast attacks. I scanned In a circle, it seemed that I was the only one who succeeded in bringing the ducks and the geese.

A group of people, all women, came out from behind the stone wall covered with weeds, chattering and calling the girl to the shore.

The women neatly made a fence with branches, formed a circle and drove the ducks and geese in.

There were many children who evacuated with the woman, pulling the tails of dogs and legs of cats, and happily feeding the ducks some small fish.

The boat rope is tied tightly.

He casually threw a few small fish in the cabin to the dog.

"Yingzi, did the village chief grandpa say when he can go home?"

Sister Xiang from the same village asked curiously, and the other women also wanted to know, and they all looked at the girl named Yingzi.

Yingzi jumped ashore with a few big fish in his bag, sighed and shook his head.

"I don't know how many days they will stay here. There are many chickens, ducks and geese in the village."

The women murmured and cursed after hearing this, and some girls were so angry that they sobbed. Normally, they would be reluctant to eat eggs and wait for eggs to be exchanged for money, but unexpectedly they were killed and eaten by outsiders, which made them feel uncomfortable.

Hand the bag containing the dried fish to Sister Xiang.

"Auntie asked me to bring it here. Is there enough food here?"

"That's enough. The fish caught in the waterside and the wild vegetables dug in the mountains. Did my mother tell you anything?"

Sister Xiang led Yingzi over the collapsed gap in the stone wall of the bandit village. It was getting dark, and the girls and wives from the same village were all busy.

Yingzi shook his head.

"I was in such a hurry that I didn't have a chance to talk. Don't worry, the village chief will find a solution."

Sister Xiang was silent and did not speak, and Yingzi did not know what to say. The poor people were like duckweeds in the lake, they could only rise and fall with the waves when encountering them.

The stone wall was two feet high and more than ten feet long. Adults and children were busy building shacks, and a few girls made a fire to grill fish and cook wild vegetables.

Dense trees can block the firelight from outside view, and there is no shortage of bamboo for construction.

They have lived in the same village for generations. They have grown up together. They are both good at fishing and digging vegetables. No one wants to harm the precious ducks and geese.

I handed a few fishes to the children to bake, tied their hands with rag strips, and then built them together.

Every family usually has hatchets in their fishing boats. With the tools, it is easy to build a shack. You can work together to cut bamboo and drag it back.

Use stones and split bamboo to build a bamboo bed, build a frame with bamboo poles and cover it with banana leaves.

The shacks were quickly built one by one. Yingzi learned from Yingzi that the village was not safe and had to prepare for a long stay.

As night falls, the night owls in the mountains make a terrifying sound.

The women who took refuge ate around the hot campfire, and the children played carefree. The mother occasionally had to pick up a branch and whip it hard a few times, so that the children would remember what was poisonous and what not to touch.

Yingzi shaved off the fish bones from fish with a strong earthy smell and fed it to the dog without roasting it. Dogs like to eat food with a strong fishy smell.

The wild vegetables were cooked thoroughly in the earthenware pot, and each person shared a portion using split bamboo as a bowl.

Sister Xiang put certain herbs on the fire and smoked them. A special smell spread out, which drove away mosquitoes, snakes and ants from being bitten. Putting a handful in the shack at night can help you sleep peacefully.

The girls and wives sat together in twos and threes and talked.

Discuss what we still lack, how many days we have to live in the mountains, etc.

I was worried and had to do a lot of work in a day, so those who had children took the children to bed first. It was cold at night in the mountains, so the two adults had to hold the children between them for fear of catching cold. It was okay to sleep for two nights temporarily, but they had to find a way to get some quilts.

Yingzi was not tired at all, but couldn't sleep anyway, so he picked up a hatchet to cut bamboo to make bamboo spears.

There is something to deal with if a wild beast attacks at night.

Sharpen and roast over fire.

It's so quiet at night that you can hear the waves lapping on the shore, and dogs are sleeping everywhere. Occasionally, you prick up your ears when you hear the sounds of wild beasts in the mountains, the humming of children in the shack, and the rustle of bamboo peeling.

The girls and wives were all asleep. Only Yingzi calmly whittled the bamboo spear and made a bow. The bowstring was made of hemp string and it didn't last long. It was better than nothing.

The bonfire was crackling and burning, and I felt uncomfortable without the rusty iron knife by my side tonight.

As I sat, I suddenly felt that the surroundings were particularly quiet.

There was no sound of insects and no sound of night owls. It was gray and dim, and all the dogs were gone...

The silence is depressing.

Yingzi is nervous and scared, which is definitely not normal!

Suddenly, there was the sound of water from the lake outside the stone wall, like someone wading in the water.

Instinctively, she wanted to call the sisters to get up, but no one responded after calling several times. Yingzi was even more frightened now. She grabbed the hatchet in one hand and the bamboo spear in the other. Her eyes were fixed on the gap in the stone wall. The only thing she could hear was the dead night sky. There was a roar by the lake, and I couldn't help but think of the various ghost rumors spread by the old man, and the more I thought about it, the more frightened I became.

I keep thinking about the legend of water ghosts and water monkeys, but I can't remember how to deal with the evil things.

After waiting for a while, no monster was seen climbing over the wall.

not good! Something bad happened!

Suddenly I remembered that my duck, the big white goose, was still outside the wall. What if it was killed by an evil thing?

People will do many incredible things when they are in a hurry. Thinking of the tragic death of the chicken, a rush of blood rushed to Tianling Gai. He put the hatchet on his waist, picked up the bamboo spear and angrily climbed up the gap in the stone wall.

Stand on the stone wall and take a look.

I didn't see the fence surrounding the ducks and geese. It was also gray and foggy outside, and I seemed to see something out of the corner of my eye.

Observing carefully, I saw a dark figure in the gray fog on the shore...

A child from a poor family who grew up in the mountains and rivers and lakes is really reckless. He throws a bamboo spear at him without saying a word!

With years of experience in stabbing fish, his strength is terrifying.

The green bamboo spear pierced into the fog like a sharp arrow with a sound of piercing the air. The speed was so fast that the black shadow slightly dodged to avoid the bamboo spear. The long bamboo spear plunged into the mud with a pop. The huge force caused the bamboo spear to mess up. trembling.

The things that happened during the day were overwhelming. When he saw that the opponent had not been stabbed to death, Yingzi drew out his hatchet and was about to step forward to fight.

"Senior Immortal, calm down your anger and quickly collect your magical powers...!"

The black shadow suddenly shouted.

"What the hell?"

Yingzi stopped hastily, startled by the sudden sound.

The amazing thing is that when I came over, the gray mist receded on its own, and I could see clearly that the black figure was a little old man, short and fat, wearing a blue robe, with a protruding mouth and a long beard on each side.

The little old man stood on the shore and bowed repeatedly.

"The little god is not a ghost, but the water god in the lake. Please save me..."

Yingzi didn't understand it at all, but it didn't stop him from getting angry.

He gritted his teeth and raised the hatchet.

"Stop talking nonsense in front of me! Don't think I'm afraid of you!"

The pudgy old man was so frightened that he quickly retreated into the water. Strangely, he stood on the water without sinking. Now he really couldn't pursue him.

Yingzi couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air and cursed secretly that he had seen a ghost today.
