Xiaozi was stunned for a moment. Then, he took out the wine. Not only did he feel a little nostalgic.
When he was young, he had been clamoring to drink this. Grandfather Han had told him not to drink it because he would die if he drank it. He did not know if he could drink it now. He really wanted to drink it!
The reapers smelled the wine and praised Xiaozi.
Holding the wine jar, he left the things he wanted to pawn to Xiaozi and went down.
After the reapers left, I was free to continue reading.
In the past few days, he rarely pawned things for living people in the shop.
During the day, Little White pawned it while Xiaozi cultivated behind. Now Little White knew the rules of pawning and didn't need Xiaozi's help.
Xiaozi recognized Little White's strength very much. He ran into the mountains every day, but his strength was improving rapidly. Now, Xiaozi didn't dare to say that Little White could beat him.
Unless it was something that Little White didn't know and couldn't judge, it would come to ask Xiaozi.
Time passed quickly, and it was now a hot summer day.
When summer came, many children would go swimming in ponds and rivers to relieve the heat.
When Xiaozi was young, he often went there.
However, every time he went, he would be beaten up by the old Daoist.
He told Xiaozi that there were water ghosts in the water and that he might not be able to come back up.
At that time, Xiaozi didn't believe in ghosts and gods, so he always scoffed at the old Taoist priest's words, saying that he was always mumbling.
Now that Xiaozi has become a master, he knows that the old Daoist didn't lie to me.
There are a few rivers near our village. Every summer, many children go to bathe.
Strangely enough, there would always be a few people who would die in there every year.
Even so, there were still many people who went swimming.
In the past, Xiaozi thought that they died from cramps in the water, but now he knew that it was the water ghost who found a substitute and dragged them down.
Now that I think about it, I still miss what the old Daoist said to me back then.
After staying in the shop for a few days, Uncle Luo suddenly called me.
He told Xiaozi that three 12 or 13-year-old children had died in the water the day before yesterday, and they had not been salvaged yet.
Two of them are from Qingshui Village, and the other one is from the neighboring village.
The day before yesterday, they went to the river to take a bath and never came back.
The family was worried, so they went to look for them. In the end, they found their clothes by the river, but they did not find them.
Daren guessed that it was most likely drowned.
They called the police to salvage it, but they couldn't find it after two days.
The villagers thought that I was a ghost hunter, so they asked Second Uncle Luo to call Xiaozi and ask him to go over and take a look.
Xiaozi hung up the phone, packed his things, and rode his electric donkey to the village.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the riverbank.
Second Uncle Luo was also there, but there were a few aunties who were crying their hearts out while facing the river.
Xiaozi walked over and asked Second Uncle Luo what was going on.
Second Uncle Luo told Xiaozi that the person who had died from soaking was his cousin. Xiaozi also knew Little Dragon and Little Tiger.
They had come to the river to bathe with Xiao Li from the neighboring village after school.
In the end, he still hadn't returned home at night. His family was anxious to look for him, but they only found the clothes on the river bank.
He called the police and asked them to search for it, but they found nothing.
Daren sat on the bank of the river and cried.
After Second Uncle Luo finished talking to Xiaozi, Xiaozi walked toward the river.
" Second Uncle, your Luo family is a big family in the capital. Logically speaking, there are many capable people. Although you're not in the city, you should be able to find them, right?" Why do you always look for me?"
Second Uncle Luo hesitated for a moment and didn't seem to want to say more. Xiaozi didn't ask anymore and continued to walk toward the river.
As soon as Xiaozi walked over, a middle-aged woman grabbed Xiaozi's sleeve and cried to him,""Xiao, save my child!”
The other two aunties also came over to surround Xiaozi, asking him to save their child.
Xiaozi sighed helplessly and didn't say anything.
If they had just been found drowning, they might have been saved.
Now that two days had passed, he had to die.
The three old aunties surrounded Xiaozi and kept begging him to save their child. This made him unable to do anything.
Fortunately, their man was still rational. He came over to pull them away and said to Xiaozi,"Xiao, it's been two days. I don't have much hope. Now, I just want to salvage their bodies and bury them properly.”
He said to Xiaozi with a sad tone.
The most painful thing in the world was for the white-haired person to send off the black-haired person.
"Don't worry, Uncle. I'll find them.”Xiaozi nodded and said to him.
With that, Xiaozi walked over and looked at the river.
In the past, he often came here to bathe behind the old Daoist's back. He did not expect to come here to catch ghosts now.
Presumably, the water ghost did not dare to get close to him because he was afraid of the old Daoist.
Water ghosts were difficult to catch, but they were also easy to catch.
As long as he forced the water ghost to come ashore, even if his magic power was extraordinary, it would be difficult to use it.
Looking at the surface of the river, there were no waves. In the middle, there were still people from the salvage team who were continuing to salvage.
According to the rules, they had to salvage for three days.
After three days, it would no longer be their business whether or not they were salvaged.
Originally, they were going to salvage for a whole day, but Xiaozi came and the village chief told them to leave.
Although it was Xiaozi's first time dealing with a water ghost, he knew what to do.
Sulphur, cockscomb blood, black dog blood, and some other strong things were used to refine the medicine.
He threw it in the middle of the water and forced the water ghost to come ashore.
"All of you, step back a little." Xiaozi turned around and said to the villagers who were watching.
When they heard Xiaozi's words, they took a few steps back.
"Stay back. When the water ghosts come up, they will take you down.”Seeing that they had only taken a few steps back, Xiaozi said to them again.
When they heard that the water ghost would take them down, they all retreated far away.
Although he was curious to see what the water ghost looked like, it was nothing compared to his own life.
The medicine quickly dissolved in the water.
The entire clear water had turned blood-red.
The medicine lasted for ten minutes. After ten minutes, it would dissipate.
All the ghosts and monsters in the water could not withstand this medicine.
After about three minutes, there was a bang and the river water exploded.
A person jumped out of the water.
No, to be precise, it was not a human, but a water ghost.
The water ghost came out of the water. It was wearing a white robe, and its face was dry and devoid of blood.
His entire body was dry, as if he was skin and bones. There was still a lot of algae on her hair.
"Keke!"
The water ghost let out an ear-piercing sound at Xiaozi to express its anger.
Xiaozi had to finish him off within five minutes. Otherwise, the medicine on the water would melt and the water ghost would escape.
"Three Supreme Pure Ones, the universe is boundless.”Xiaozi conjured a spell with his left hand and attacked the water ghost.
The water ghost had been affected by the medicine in the water and its strength had been weakened, so Xiaozi's palm had sent him flying.
Before he could stabilize his body, Xiaozi shot forward and stabbed at him with the peach wood sword in his right hand.
However, this water ghost is really just skin and bones. When I stabbed his bones, I was actually bounced back.
Xiaozi was bounced back and pulled some distance away from the water ghost.
The water ghost also reacted at this moment and attacked Xiaozi.
However, on land, a water ghost was not as good as an ordinary malicious ghost.
He was being suppressed in all directions.
Even so, Xiaozi still couldn't kill him.
They could beat him, but they could not kill him.
A few minutes later, the medicine on the river surface began to slowly dissipate.
Once the medicine was finished, the water ghost would escape and it would be difficult to catch him.
Seeing the medicine on the river surface disappear, Xiaozi bit his tongue and spat a mouthful of blood on the peach wood sword. He shouted,""Yin and Yang Limitless, Heaven and Earth Borrowing Law, Three Supreme Pure Ones, listen to my command, kill!”
With that, he activated the Genuine Qi in the peach wood sword and stabbed it at the water ghost.
In an instant, it pierced through the water ghost's shoulder.
However, sadly, the peach wood sword was stuck inside.
The peach wood sword had pierced through his body and was stuck inside.
He couldn't pull it out or insert it.
The water ghost smiled sinisterly at Xiaozi and reached out to grab him. Xiaozi pulled him and threw the water ghost out. The water ghost was stunned. He didn't expect a human like Xiaozi to have such great strength. However, the water ghost took the opportunity to grab Xiaozi's feet and jump into the river.
As soon as he entered the river, the peach wood sword was pulled out.
However, when he suddenly fell into the water, it also made Xiaozi choke on a few mouthfuls of water.
When the villagers saw Xiaozi fall into the water, they found a hemp rope. They pulled one end and threw the other end in.
Xiaozi took the rope and tied it to himself.
As soon as he tied it up, he felt a pulling force from the water pulling Xiaozi down.
However, the pulling force was very small. Xiaozi hurriedly stabbed down with the peach wood sword, and the pulling force disappeared.
Xiaozi knew that this pulling force was the water ghost pulling me, but the medicine hadn't completely dispersed, so he didn't have much strength.
"Everyone, pull!" Second Uncle Luo shouted to everyone on the shore.
Now, a lot of the medicine had dissipated. At this speed, the effect of the medicine would disappear in less than a minute.
And if Xiaozi didn't come ashore in this minute, he would be in danger.
A battle of attrition instantly unfolded.
The water ghost was pulling me in the water, and more than ten people were pulling Xiaozi on the shore.
Although Xiaozi had been baptized by the bloodline of the Battlefield Snow Bear and had great strength, he was useless in the water. It was like hitting cotton. It was extremely uncomfortable. He had strength but could not develop it.
Although Xiaozi was moving towards the shore, his speed was very slow.
It had to be said that water ghosts were very strong in the water. One person was stronger than ten people.
If not for the influence of the medicine, Xiaozi might have been completely pulled down by him.
Forty seconds later, Xiaozi approached the shore and was about to go ashore.
However, the river water was flowing faster now, and all the medicine was washed away.
Xiaozi grabbed a rock on the shore with one hand and stabbed the water ghost in the water with the other.
However, the water ghost recovered and pulled Xiaozi down.
At this moment, Xiaozi was pulled into the water and choked on a few mouthfuls of water.
The water ghost pulled Xiaozi and swam to the bottom.
Xiaozi was a living person who had yet to cultivate a mental cultivation technique. In the water, he could only hold his breath for a minute at most.
After a minute, if he still couldn't breathe, Xiaozi would either be killed by the water ghost or suffocated to death.
Although Xiaozi had the bloodline of the Battlefield Snow Bear, he didn't seem to have inherited the ability of the bear to swim in the water.
Xiaozi struggled desperately in the water, but the water ghost didn't let him go.
In the blink of an eye, thirty seconds had passed.
At this critical moment, Xiaozi took out a talisman from his bag.
He didn't care what talisman it was. He took it out and threw it at the water ghost.
"Bang!"
With a loud sound, the pulling force disappeared. Xiaozi hurriedly swam out of the water and panted heavily.
After a while, the talisman floated out of the water.
Xiaozi took a look at the talisman paper and realized that it was a Soul Extinguishing Talisman.
The Soul Destroying Talisman was even more powerful than the Sage Talisman. It could directly destroy demons and ghosts.
However, it could only be used twice, and Xiaozi had always been reluctant to use it.
This Soul Extinguishing Talisman could blast all demons and ghosts below 500 years old into dregs.
He had originally planned to use it when he encountered ghosts that had sealed souls for hundreds of years.
The loud bang just now might have been the water ghost being blasted into pieces.
Seeing that the water ghost was completely killed, Xiaozi breathed a sigh of relief and swam to the shore.
He sat on the bank of the river and panted heavily.
If he hadn't touched the Soul Extinguishing Talisman in a hurry, Xiaozi might have died here.
At this moment, he looked at the water surface with lingering fear and could not come back to his senses for a long time.
After a long time, Second Uncle Luo came over and patted Xiaozi's back. Only then did Xiaozi come back to his senses.
"Xiao, how is it? Are you alright? Second Uncle Luo asked Xiaozi.
"Second Uncle, I'm fine. The water ghosts have been destroyed.”Xiaozi said to Second Uncle.
After this incident, Xiaozi found that his Battlefield Snow Bear Bloodline was only the initial development. He didn't understand any skills. He had to find time to see how to stimulate it. He didn't even inherit the bear's swimming ability. If he inherited it, wouldn't he be able to come and go freely in the water?
