I panicked and rummaged around putting it on, but there was no sign of the two of them. At this time, I heard Mr. Hei's cry. When I looked at the shore, I discovered that the master and Uncle Wu had landed on the shore at some unknown time.
At this time, the master and the fifth uncle were climbing to the shore, and the night was wagging its tail beside the fifth uncle.
My face turned red with anger and I wondered why they had abandoned me. Didn't they agree to go up together?
I kept rowing the oar in my hand, but I couldn't get even half an inch closer to the shore.
I was so panicked that I kept yelling, but the master and my fifth uncle seemed not to hear me.
Then my feet slipped and I fell directly into the water. I kept struggling and flopping hard.
For a moment, I felt as if my chest was being squeezed. As more and more water filled my lungs, I seemed to feel the threat of death.
I slowly sank into the water. What was speechless was that I could still see the master and my fifth uncle busy on the shore.
Am I going to die?
Is this what death feels like?
I closed my eyes weakly, waiting for death to come.
Snapped!
My face was burning with pain, and I looked around in confusion.
"Are you damn okay? Your physique is really unique. I almost scared me to death!"
At this time, the master was holding me and sitting on the shore. Uncle Wu next to me also had a dark face.
"Master, I..."
"What are you doing? Why are you so easy to get into trouble? If your fifth uncle hadn't pulled you up just now, you would have been pulled down by something in the water."
"ah?"
I sat up in confusion. The water was very calm at this time. I had no idea what happened just now.
Uncle Wu walked up to me, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, there's no need to wait until we get back to talk about anything now."
I nodded blankly, packed my things and got directly into Uncle Wu's mule cart.
This time, Heiye leads the way.
The three of us ran away in a hurry. It wasn't until we got into the car that I felt more relieved. "Master, what happened just now?"
The master glanced at me, then sighed and said, "Master told me before that your physique was different from ordinary people, but I really didn't take it seriously. Now it seems that you really haven't embarrassed the master.
When we came up just now, you were fascinated by Shen Zi and jumped into the water by yourself. If your fifth uncle hadn't been good at water, you probably wouldn't have been able to come up."
"What? Shen Zi? But... didn't the female corpse step come up?"
I don't know why, but Shenzi, I understand, it means that a person dies abnormally, such as being harmed by someone, and the injustice in his heart becomes the unjust death.
The corpse cannot float up normally and becomes a corpse that sinks in the water. Such corpses will undergo changes. Some of them can develop some abilities and pull their enemies into the water.
Some can even turn into zombies and go to the shore to take revenge. In short, they are very capable.
I've read my grandfather's book before, and there are many ways to subdue a corpse like this.
I didn't expect that the first time I went out with my master, we would encounter such a dead body.
I looked at the master nervously and said, "Master, then... what should I do? And don't we salvage the female body?"
Before the master could speak, Uncle Wu snorted coldly and said, "Lao? Huh, of course it's Lao, but we have to go find them to settle the score.
If they have the guts to plot against me, King Tiger, then they must have the guts to bear the consequences."
Then we learned the reason from Uncle Wu. It turned out that the reason why the master came here this time was because he received a call from Uncle Wu.
Three days ago, Uncle Wu received a call. The daughter of a family in the south of the city died and her body fell into the reservoir.
At that time, I heard that the girl was out playing with her friends, so she accidentally slipped and died.
But who is the fifth uncle? He is a famous corpse collector. He actually knew that they concealed the matter, but because of his own ability, he didn't think much about it.
However, for safety reasons, Uncle Wu asked his master for help, which led to today's scene.
But now it seems that the things the family concealed are really quite big.
We finally returned home around 12:30, and under the light, I discovered that Uncle Wu had many wounds on his body.
The wound looked like a scratch. I said hesitantly, "Uncle Wu, what's the matter with the wound on your body? I haven't seen you before..."
"Why, are you worried about me? Don't worry, it's not a big deal."
Seeing his indifferent look, I didn't think much about it. I was about to take out disinfectant to disinfect him, but he stopped me and asked me to take out a box from a cabinet not far away.
I opened the box in confusion, and there were many bottles and cans inside.
"Who is the fifth uncle?"
Because Uncle Wu was injured, I had to do something. Uncle Wu asked me to take out the largest white earthen jar inside. After I opened it, I discovered that it was actually glutinous rice.
I looked at him in surprise and found that Uncle Wu took a handful of glutinous rice and pressed it directly on the wound.
At the same time, bursts of green smoke came out of the wound.
Uncle Wu grimaced in pain, and I stood up in fear.
"Master, master, come in quickly!"
I screamed. At this time, the master was working outside and ran in quickly after hearing the sound.
After seeing the wounds on Uncle Wu's body, his face darkened and he frowned, "How do you deal with it?"
Obviously the master knew what kind of injury it was, and the fifth uncle laughed at himself indifferently: "I have survived all these years, why do I need to tell you such a trivial matter? This kid is just making a fuss, what's the big deal?"
Then Uncle Wu took some glutinous rice and applied it to the wound again. This time there was no smoke, but it was obviously not that easy.
Chang Yi looked at his fifth uncle beside him. He had followed Chang Xiao for so many years and had seen a lot of these things. It was indeed his own fault.
"Okay, let's go back and ask what happened. Otherwise, there's no way to recover this body."
Uncle Wu didn't say anything, packed his things silently, turned around and walked towards the village.
On the way back, I felt a chill on my neck, as if someone was blowing air on the back of my neck, and the hairs on my body grew cold.
Just as he was about to turn around to look, he was immediately grabbed by Chang Xiao who was beside him and warned, "Boy, don't turn around if you don't want to die."
Hearing this, I was so frightened that I immediately straightened my neck and followed in Uncle Wu's footsteps, never daring to look behind me again.
Thinking back to what happened just now, the more I thought about it, the more scared I became, so I asked: "I was on the boat with you just now, when did you get ashore?"
"Why are you getting on the boat? You were haunted by something at the bottom of the river, and I want you to be the scapegoat."
Uncle Wu nodded and said, "Yes, your master couldn't wake you up no matter how hard he pinched you. I saw that you insisted on getting on the boat, so I tried to wake you up."
The white mist in the lake has gradually dissipated. Thinking of the white mist on the river just now, I was sitting on the boat half asleep, and there were bursts of crying in the lake, as if countless innocent souls were asking for their lives, which was frightening.
