Chapter 008 The River That Can Eat People
After the black ball stabilized, the two Kang Min also dismounted and walked over.
Kangba's man is burly and heroic. These two people should be father and son when they hear the conversation.
Wu Ge cannot determine whether the other party is a player who also entered the script, so he can only observe the other party first.
My father was wearing a thick cotton jacket and a fur hat. His dark face was coiled in deep ravines. His bright eyes shone like pearls and were filled with the momentum of a prairie hunter while walking.
My son's hair is black and hard, and he is wearing a blue cotton robe that does not fit in. His clear eyes are full of agility and vitality.
Wu Ge looked at the two of them vigilantly, unsure of the other's intentions.
But what Wu Ge didn't expect was that when the two of them were about ten meters away from Wu Ge, they actually stopped and then suddenly fell to their knees.
Then, two Kangmins chanted something.
They clasped their hands together and raised their heads high.
Then, the two Kangmins took a step forward at the same time, continued to fold their hands and moved to the front.
Then, the two of them took another step forward, folded their hands and moved to their chests.
When they took the third step, their hands moved away from their chests, parallel to the ground, leaned down to the ground with their palms, knees first, then leaned all over the ground, and their foreheads gently knocked on the ground.
This movement was repeated continuously until it came to Wu Ge's feet.
Wu Ge was slightly stunned. Although he didn't know much about Kang Min's culture, such actions were obviously a very high etiquette.
Wu Ge was about to help the two of them up, but the elderly suddenly spoke:
"Hero, you must be the envoy of the Angler River God. Thank you for destroying the terrible Manggus. On behalf of the tribe, I pay my highest respect to your courage and strength!"
Wu Ge could hear it roughly, hesitated for a while, then quickly helped the two of them up and said:
"I am the one who should thank you. If you two set fire, I really don't know how to solve this guy."
The elder was slightly stunned, as if he didn't understand much, and the young man next to him said to the elder:
"Babe, let me tell you!"
Then, the young man said to Wu Ge devoutly:
"Hero, my father and I are nearby herders. In the past six months, the frequent appearance of Manggus has killed many people. Today we waited according to the location mentioned by Uncle Zushi. We originally wanted to fight Manggus to the death, but you happened to appear. Thank you for killing Manggus!"
Wu Ge looked at the respectful father and son without any disagreement.
Generally, in script killing, many high-quality players are used to completely substituting themselves into the role for performance.
But it would be a bit difficult to say that a person can play his role vividly like the father and son in such a strange and terrifying environment.
However, thinking that after entering the script, his personality and memory were also affected by the role being replaced, Wu Ge still could not determine whether the other party's identity was a player or an NPC.
"I don't know what Manggus is, but if you refer to the black monster in the stone just now, it has now been sealed in this ball." Wu Ge said truthfully.
The boy was slightly stunned, quickly took a step back, and looked at the black sphere beside Wu Ge in fear.
"Then...then it's not dead yet?" the young man said in horror.
"No, but it won't last long." Wu Ge said seriously.
Seeing this, the boy's father obviously felt something was wrong, but he seemed not to speak Mandarin and quickly asked his son in Kangyu what happened.
After the son explained, the father immediately became nervous, pulled out his sword from his waist, aimed it in the direction of the black sphere, and began to recite some kind of spell again.
"Uncle, don't worry, once this guy is completely trapped by me, he will not be able to escape in a short period of time." Wu Ge said confidently.
In the cancer cell ball he created, some of Wu Ge's nerve cells were also separated. As long as there was a connection between the two, Wu Ge would have all the dynamics in the ball.
The boy translated to his father. After a while, his father looked carefully, he slowly withdrew his knife and said:
"A hero with great powers, you must be the follower of God. I welcome and thank you again for your arrival."
Wu Ge often received thanks from the masses when putting out fires, but this was the first time he was treated as a god envoy. He couldn't help but smile and waved his hand:
"Brother, the bonfires in front are your campsites? Can I stay for one night?"
"Of course, we welcome you very much!" the young man said excitedly.
The father and son did not ask Wu Ge for more information, nor did they mention any off-field factors implicitly. It seems that the NPC is more likely.
So Wu Ge followed the father and son back to the camp.
On the way, the boy couldn't wait to introduce him to Wu Ge.
They are herdsmen from Wutumuren Township, and their tribesmen are divided into this area to graz.
The boy's name is Dorje, and his father is Danzeng Sangji, and his father is the patriarch of the Eagle tribe.
The totem believed in by the Eagle tribe is the grassland eagle, and all the tribe members are free and unrestrained, brave and tenacious.
The territory of the Eagle tribe is fertile and close to water sources, making it very suitable for grazing.
Dorje usually returns to school in the countryside and goes home to graze during holidays. He is a very hardworking and good child.
Although life on the grassland is a bit difficult, I don’t feel much about growing up here since I was a child.
Such a peaceful and peaceful life day after day.
Until a few months ago, an accident broke the peaceful life of the Hawk herders.
The cause of the incident was that an Eagle Tribe was in trouble by the river.
Late one night, this tribe member went to the river to fetch water, but suddenly an accident happened. He accidentally fell into the river and was washed away by the turbulent river water.
Later, the tribe members searched downstream, but found no body.
But what is bizarre is that three days later, his body floated to the shore again, and to the place where he fell into the water.
When he came back, his body was full of holes and his flesh had almost disappeared, as if he had been gnawed by some ferocious beast.
There were also black lines on these bones, as if they had been corroded by some kind of acid.
After burying the victim, the leader of Danzengsangji returned to the village and invited a well-known wizard to practice the method by the river.
At the same time, the head of Danzengsangji clan issued strict orders to the tribe members, resolutely not allowing anyone to go to the river to fetch water after the sun sets.
After a week of silence, someone in the Eagle Tribe was killed.
The death was a couple. They dated by the river one night, but they both fell into the water.
But strangely, the couple who died this time were both good-looking.
Especially the man who died was very strong and very good at swimming. He saved cows, lambs and children who fell into the water many times.
Dorje once saw this man flowing upstream from the Angler River for 3 kilometers.
Even so, the two died in the river.
Also a few days later, the body appeared again by the river, almost exactly the same as the previous deceased.
In this way, people will basically die every month in the next few months.
The time of death, the way of death, and the place of death are almost exactly the same.
As long as you go to the river to get water when it is dark, you will be killed.
A few days later, the body would return to the distance.
Although the clan leader has warned his tribe and his tribe has also raised his sense of danger, tragedies continue to happen.
As the terrorist incidents fermented, people began to witness the initiator of these tragedies.
Someone saw the black shadow crawling out of the river, dragging the tribe members into the water, and then strangling them alive in the river.
Some superstitious people in the clan began to suspect that the legendary black monster appeared nearby - Manggus.
This monster named Manggus is widely circulated among the Kang tribe.
It is said that this monster has no head and face, and its whole body is pitch black, and a big mouth grows directly on its body.
They live in the Angler River Basin, are bloodthirsty and cruel, and are said to be pets of the Hell Demon God.
But this kind of demon does not eat animals, but specializes in eating malicious people and punishing the crimes they commit.
These guys are lurking in the shadow of darkness and will suddenly appear behind the bad guys.
After the raid is successful, Manggus will eat the bad guy and spit the bones into the river.
Although this legend has been passed down for a long time, everyone regards it as a kind of black fairy tale that attracts goodness, and no one has ever seen Ruangges.
Now the sudden appearance of Mangges made the patriarch Danzeng Sangji helpless.
Finally, I had to apply to the village and requested to re-dividate the grazing area.
However, the pastoral areas of Wutu Muren Township are also very tense now. There is no extra pastoral areas that can be divided into Danzeng Sangji tribe, so the tribe members can only find a way for themselves.
Just when the head of Danzengsangji felt at a loss, a scholar happened to come to the village. This scholar was Uncle Zuzhi mentioned by Dorje - Li Zuzhi.
Li Zuzhi is an excellent entomologist. His team came to Qizangzhou this time to look for some kind of precious insects, and happened to be stationed in Wutumuren Township.
When Li Zuzhi heard about the strange incident encountered by the Danzengsangji clan, he immediately led his team to the pastoral area with the Danzengsangji clan leader.
After investigation, Li Zushi made a judgment.
Manggus will appear again in the evening seven days later. As long as you search along the nearby river bank, you will encounter a target.
But Manggus is very dangerous and must use flames to eliminate it.
The patriarch Danzeng Sangji was skeptical. After all, on this grassland with relatively backward culture, witchcraft is far more credible than science.
But now there is no other way, so I have to do it and follow Li Zuzhi's advice.
After Li Zuzhi's investigation was over, he returned to Wutu Muren Township because there were other things to do.
The patriarch and Dorje continued to wait for Manggus here six times.
After several days of gain, they were all a little disappointed. Until today, the two finally waited for it to appear.
