Liu Laodao is right about one thing. I don’t understand anything. Because I don’t understand, it’s easier to be self-righteous.

But now it’s not that I am self-righteous, but that Liu Laodao didn’t explain clearly.

When I opened my eyes, I found that it was still dark. My heartbeat accelerated so fast that I felt like I was suffocating. My throat was so nervous that I couldn't make any sound.

I couldn't see anything in the dark. The first time I reacted, I closed my eyes. However, just because I couldn't see, it didn't mean that things in the dark couldn't see me.

The moment I opened my eyes just now, I felt a pair of strange eyes staring at me in the darkness.

Now, it has seen me.

With my eyes closed, I can feel it approaching.

Wow! Wow!

The sound of water started again, as if someone was stirring the water. Immediately afterwards, I felt something crawling onto my leg. It felt like a hand, or like the paw of some kind of animal.

I can feel the sharpness of its nails through my pants. As long as it exerts a little force, it can cut my pants and cut open my flesh and blood.

Is it the thing in the water that Liu Laodao said?

Although I was afraid, I really wanted to open my eyes and take a look. But I didn’t dare. I was afraid of what I would see when I opened my eyes...

"Ah!" Just when the cold claws touched my waist, I finally used all my strength to open my throat and yelled.

The thing in the dark seemed to be startled by my cry. Its claws trembled slightly, but the next second they suddenly tightened hard, grabbing me and dragging me underground.

As soon as it dragged, the earth and rocks beneath me turned into water. Amidst the rushing sound of water, my body kept sinking. Soon, the biting ice water reached my chest.

At this moment, Liu Yuan shouted loudly: "Evil beast, seek death!"

I didn't want to sit back and wait for death. I planned to run away after shouting, so when I heard Liu Yuan's scolding, I opened my eyes immediately and saw a yellow talisman exploding in front of me.

Under the illumination of the talisman light, I saw a group of black shadows retracting into the soil.

Liu Laodao came over holding a torch, pulled me up, and shined the fire forward. Where the black shadow disappeared, I saw a pool of black water quickly soaking into the earth and rocks.

After the black water completely disappeared, a small wooden sign remained on the ground.

When I saw the wooden sign, I was completely stunned.

My grandfather knew a little bit of carpentry when he was alive and would often carve pictures of small animals for me. After my grandmother died, what he did most was carve her portrait on a piece of wood.

The wooden plaque on the ground seems to be the wood pieces that my grandfather used to carve my grandmother's portrait during his lifetime.

After what happened tonight, I stopped being impulsive and looked back at Liu Yuan. Only then did I realize that his robe was wet, as if he had just come out of the water. There was a hole in his chest, as if it had been torn by the claws of some animal.

It was gone, but the skin under the clothes was unscathed.

Liu Yuan understood what I meant and indicated that I could pick it up. Then I carefully went over and picked up the wood piece. When I turned it over, I saw that the other side was indeed my grandma’s carved image.

I was about to ask Liu Yuan if it was my grandfather who arrested me just now. He waved his hands a little tiredly and said: "Your mother has returned to the water, and your family's affairs have come to an end! As for the things you want to ask, unless

You go up the mountain to worship me as your teacher, otherwise the more you know, the more dangerous you will be?"

Apprenticeship?

I was stunned for a moment, even scared!
