The grimace man was in so much pain that his lips turned purple.
"Don't...I'll give..."
Xiao Feng slowly let go of him and smiled coldly.
"I thought you were so brave, but now you're scared to death?"
"Ahem..."
The grimaced man coughed violently and was out of breath.
"I'm not afraid of death, it's just that if I die, the men, women, and children in the village won't be able to survive either."
"Oh why?"
Xiao Feng asked.
"Because the water god needs to sacrifice living people, and if he can't catch outsiders, he can only sacrifice villagers."
"One person has to be sacrificed every month. There are only a few hundred people in the village, and they will all be dead within two years."
The grimace man whispered.
"You know very well in your heart that that ghost is not a god at all."
Xiao Feng said sharply.
"No, he is God, he really is God."
"I advise you not to talk nonsense. If the water god hears it, you will never get out."
The grimace man shook his head in horror.
"Hahaha...joke."
Xiao Feng grabbed his hair and pointed at his face.
"I see you are really frightened. Tell me, what the hell is that thing?"
"I guess it's a water ghost."
At this time, Hua Murong and Bing Ling walked out of the wooden house.
"No, water ghosts don't have that much ability."
"He is also a wizard after all. How could he be controlled by a water ghost?"
"Tell me, what is that thing?"
Xiao Feng asked again.
"I...I don't dare to say it. If he hears it, I won't be able to survive."
The grimace man shook his head in panic, his face pale.
"I asked, can you be of some use?"
"Your sister Magu is a ruthless character. Compared with her, you are nothing but a waste."
Xiao Feng deliberately belittled him.
"It's not that I'm useless, it's that you haven't seen how terrible he is."
"If I tell you, can you save the lives of everyone in the village?"
He could see that this guy was a master and might be able to save them.
"Ha...you shameless bastard."
"They have poisoned us and want to sacrifice us."
"Now you are licking your old face and asking us to help you? I can't wait to chop you alive."
Hua Murong cursed.
"If my death can bring peace to the entire village, then my merits will be considered immeasurable."
"Actually, even if I don't arrest you, you won't be able to go back."
"The river you passed by when you came here has been completely controlled by him, and he is hiding in that river."
"No matter who wants to pass through that river, he will eventually be dragged to the bottom of the river. No one can survive."
The grimace man said in a low voice.
"Then why was everything okay when we came?"
Hua Murong asked again.
"That's because...I negotiated terms with him."
"If you offer him a living person every month, he will not harm the villagers or kill innocent people indiscriminately."
"Hundreds of people have died in the village, so I can only come up with this plan to murder those who come to visit."
When he said this, the grimace man lowered his head.
"Ha... So you are still reasonable? You still have no choice but to do it?"
"What about those people controlled by Gu? How do you explain it?"
Hua Murong asked sharply.
"They will be sacrificed sooner or later. In order to prevent anyone from resisting, I can only use Gu insects to control them."
'Snapped!'
Hua Murong was furious and slapped him hard.
"Old man, you cruel bastard, don't think of yourself as so noble."
"How many innocent people have been killed by you."
"If we hadn't met us today, I don't know how many people would have died later. You really deserve to die!"
"Haha...well played!"
The grim-faced man laughed miserably: "I admit that what I did is unpardonable."
"If I can save everyone in the village, my death will be worth it."
"Sir, I know you are an expert. Please save our village for the sake of my sister."
'Poof!'
An old man in his sixties or seventies knelt directly in front of Xiao Feng.
"I don't want to harm people all the time. I'm not a beast, I'm also a human being."
"You get up first!"
Xiao Feng helped him up with one hand and asked: "Old man, what do I call you?"
"Old man Uji Azabu, just call me Uji."
The grimace man replied.
Silky chicken? And rag? Haha...
Xiao Feng shook his head and smiled, this name is really well chosen.
"I'd better call you Ma Lao, I can help you with this matter."
"What? Oh, thank you sir."
The old man Azabu looked so excited that he almost burst into tears.
"Hey! Are you crazy?"
"He wants to kill us, why are you helping him? Are you having trouble with your brain?"
Hua Murong said angrily.
"I'm not helping him, I'm helping those innocent people."
"If we don't get rid of that ghost in the river, more people will definitely die, don't you think?"
Xiao Feng asked rhetorically.
"Yes, I agree with Brother Feng."
Bing Ling immediately expressed his stance.
"You... damn girl, you two really vent your anger out of the same nostril."
"Oh, forget it, let's repay kindness with evil."
Hua Murong rolled her eyes.
"Haha... I knew that our Master Hua has the best heart."
Xiao Feng deliberately praised her.
"Get out of here and stop wearing your hat on me."
"Who is that? You haven't said it yet. What is the thing in the river?"
Hua Murong asked hurriedly.
The old man Azabu had a flash of fear in his eyes.
He calmed down and whispered: "That's a... water monkey that has lived for almost a hundred years."
"What? Water monkey?"
Hua Murong's expression changed.
That water ghost is nicknamed water monkey. Isn’t that the same thing? He really took off his pants and farted.
"Hey old man, isn't that a water ghost?"
"no!"
Xiao Feng shook his head and said: "Water ghosts and water monkeys are completely different evil spirits."
"One is that after being drowned in water, his soul turned into an evil spirit."
"The other is that a living person was sunk to the bottom of the water. At the moment of death, he absorbed all the souls and resentments of the people who were drowned in the river, and turned into a monster that was neither human nor ghost."
Old Man Azabu responded: "What you said is absolutely true, that water monkey is a monster."
"It lives by eating living people. If no sacrifice is given to it, it will massacre the villagers."
"I tried every means at the beginning. I painted spells on the doors of every house to deal with it."
"It's a pity...my ability is limited and I can't stop it at all, hey!"
At this point, the old man Azabu sighed, looking a little helpless and sad.
Xiao Feng nodded lightly. No wonder there were dark red patterns painted on the doors of every house. It turned out to be to deter water monkeys.
Miao wizards are the strongest at cultivating poisons and using poisons, and Taoism is almost at the bottom.
Ordinary spells have no effect on such a powerful evil spirit, let alone the Miao wizard's three-legged cat skills. It's no wonder that he can't solve it.
"I'm curious, where did this water monkey come from? It couldn't just appear for no reason, right?"
Bing Ling asked softly.
The old man Azabu had a gloomy face, and after a while he lit a cigarette pot and said slowly.
