"Let's call here to see Master Xiao first."
"Maybe Master Xiao can hear our screams."
Pei You knew Xiaolu's impatience, so he didn't say anything more, but suggested.
In fact, she was also very worried.
After all, it was her who caused this incident.
If she hadn't cared about some random things, this wouldn't have happened.
As time went by, she became more and more anxious.
…
"Master Xiao."
Pei You called tentatively towards the river.
Seeing this, Xiaolu put his hands together to his mouth and shouted loudly, "Master Xiao, where are you?"
"Master Xiao!"
"Master Xiao!"
…
The girl's screams echoed above the river.
After a while, another man's voice was added.
…
Xiao Xiao's ears in the water twitched and his swimming body stopped.
The drowned ghost turned around and looked at him in confusion, "Play, play."
"Sorry, Drowned Ghost."
Xiao Xiao's words made Drowned Gui roll his eyes uneasily.
It swam to Xiao Xiao's side, grabbed his wrist, looked up at Xiao Xiao's green eyes and unconsciously revealed a hint of expectation, "Play, play."
"I want to go back."
Xiao Xiao didn't pay attention to Drowned Gui's action of grabbing his hand.
He patted the monster on the head with his free hand.
...
"Play, play."
The drowned ghost's voice became a bit shriller.
The green eyes seemed to have water sloshing in them.
"Drunken ghost."
Xiao Xiao's voice was light and gentle. He raised the wrist that was grabbed by the drowned ghost and said, "Don't grab human wrists casually in the future."
"Not on your ankles, or anywhere on your body."
"They'll be scared."
"Human beings cannot breathe in water."
"So, if you insist on dragging them to play with you, they will drown."
Seeing the confused and confused look on Drowned Gui's face, Xiao Xiao changed his explanation and said, "In other words, they can no longer play with you."
"Do you want this?"
"No, no, play, play."
The drowned ghost shook his head and repeated the same words almost stubbornly.
Like a willful child.
But there was a hint of grievance.
...
"Drown ghost, don't worry."
"Maybe there won't be any kids coming for a while."
Seeing the why on the monster's face, Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Because you scared them."
"It's human instinct to avoid danger."
"I think-"
"Why don't you live somewhere farther away in the river."
The people in this area have been frightened twice by this monster. It may take longer than before for them to relax their vigilance against this place.
"Change to another section of the river where there will be people to play with you."
"Play with me."
Seeing the monster's eyes sparkling instantly, Xiao Xiao's lips that were about to curl up stopped because of the sudden voice in his heart.
Then, the corners of his mouth gradually straightened.
"My lord, a drowned ghost cannot leave the waters where he was born."
The water where you were born?
Is it just this area in a narrow sense, not the entire river?
"This drowned ghost doesn't have enough demonic power to break free from the constraints here."
"If its demonic power were stronger, it could go to other river sections."
"In other words, as long as the demonic power of this drowned ghost is strong enough, it can go to any water body."
"That's the theory."
"But it's hard."
Needless to say, Ayu knew how difficult it was.
This is about breaking the innate shackles.
It can't be done without overwhelming force.
...
But you can’t even go to the adjacent river section?
This monster is "the same on the outside"... weak.
No wonder Pei You was able to get rid of its imprisonment before.
Although the drowned ghost's hand stretched out of the water, its reduced strength was also a reason.
Xiao Xiao sighed and smiled helplessly.
"Drown ghost, if you want to play with human children, then practice hard."
"Change another river section."
"Perhaps by that time, there will be children here who are willing to come and play."
"Approach patiently and don't grab the other person in a hurry. You will find children who are willing to play with you."
...
"Practice?"
The drowned ghost's eyes swayed, as if he didn't understand, but also seemed to understand.
"Yes, practice."
"Otherwise you won't be able to leave here."
"leave?"
To be continued...
