After opening our eyes, Moting and I saw many things that were invisible to the naked eye.
The yin energy all around was very strong, forming waves of white mist.
They gathered around the tree and the small pool and never dispersed.
What's even weirder is that there seems to be a big fish swimming around in the small pool.
But I knew very well that the fish swimming in the pool was definitely not a big fish.
"Brother Qin, what do you think is in that pool?"
Moting lowered his voice and suddenly asked.
I frowned and guessed:
"I think there might be a ghost in there!"
As soon as I finished speaking, Taoist priest Tang echoed:
"That's right, those swimming in the pool are just ghosts.
If a living person goes down, I’m afraid he won’t be able to get up.”
After hearing Taoist Priest Tang's affirmative answer, Mo Ting and I both felt a "thump" in our hearts.
Look at the surging water, the ripples going back and forth.
How many ghosts were lying on the ground in a pool that was only half the size of a basketball court?
Just when we were frightened and cautiously observed the small pool.
Suddenly, I saw a human head slowly emerging from the middle of the small pool.
His head was wet and his face was pale.
Just little by little, it emerged from the yin pool.
A pair of dark eyes stared straight at Butler Li who was wandering on the shore, waiting for the demon to appear.
"Damn it, my head is exposed, my head is exposed..."
Mo Ting's face changed slightly and he spoke in surprise.
As a result, Taoist Tang glared at him:
"Keep your voice down, have you never seen a ghost?"
Mo Ting felt a little out of control, so he hurriedly covered his mouth.
When I looked at the exposed water ghost, I was also frightened, and at the same time I clenched the peach wood sword in my hand.
As long as Master gives the order, I dare to rush forward and kill him.
However, this is far from over.
As the first water ghost emerged, wet human heads appeared one after another on the surface of the pool.
One, two, three...
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen such heads appeared in the pool.
Each one slowly emerged from the water.
His face was extremely pale, and his black eyes were staring at Butler Li on the shore.
Showing a sly smile.
He kept breathing heavily, as if he wanted to drag Butler Li into the water and eat him...
My eyes widened, and I became somewhat nervous under the suppression of this emotion.
However, Master and Taoist Priest Tang kept signaling Mo Ting and me not to move.
Don't make a sound and keep hiding it.
Because the real owner we are waiting for is obviously not the water ghost in the pool, but the demon who wants to come and get the box.
But Butler Li, who was standing by the small pool, obviously didn't see these water ghosts outcropping, and was still pacing back and forth under the tree.
Those water ghosts looked at the living people standing on the shore and walking back and forth, as if they were seeing a big piece of fat.
One by one, they all showed expressions of excitement and hunger, and began to approach the shore little by little.
Some even kept opening and closing their mouths, sticking out strips of thin and long tongues, licking and waving around their mouths.
We see it in our eyes and can only continue to wait.
About five minutes later, the water ghosts in the pool had already crowded the shore.
Everyone stared at Butler Li.
Although it looks scary, it feels like they can't get up.
However, this idea did not last long before it was broken.
The water ghost closest to the shore couldn't hold it back in the end.
Suddenly he started to approach the water bank, stretched out his paws, and crawled out of the small pool little by little.
Move your body bit by bit, slowly crawling from the pool to the shore.
He raised his head and stared straight at Butler Li with his black eyes.
Like a wild beast about to be hunted.
One took the lead, and the other dozen or so water ghosts began to follow suit, all squeezing toward the shore.
One after another, they began to climb from the water to the shore...
Master and the others still made no move.
But I was horrified, and finally couldn't help but asked in a low voice;
"Master, these, these water ghosts are moving, what should I do?"
Master frowned and just lowered his voice and said:
"Don't worry, it's not time to take action yet!"
After hearing what Master said, I could only continue to wait.
But I'm really afraid that Butler Li will be jumped on by these water ghosts and bitten to death.
Although Butler Li's fortune is not good, after sending away his wife and children, the underworld has been closed for the past two days.
Apart from feeling that the surroundings were getting colder and colder, he couldn't see the water ghosts approaching him at all.
I could only continue to wait under the tree in fear.
However, Butler Li is also very courageous, and since this is not his first time here, he always remains calm.
The gloomy surroundings did not affect his emotions.
But the water ghost in the small pool was getting closer to him.
Soon, the first water ghost had arrived in front of him.
Now he was lying on the ground with his mouth wide open, sniffing and breathing at him.
Butler Li could feel, but could not see, the gusts of cold wind.
It's just that I feel a lot more anxious than before.
And around him, more and more water ghosts gathered.
In a blink of an eye, we saw the dozen water ghosts surrounding Butler Li.
Each one looked hungry.
One of the water ghosts slowly stood up.
He opened his mouth slightly, stuck out his blood-red tongue, and licked his neck bit by bit...
