Live fortune telling: Thunder magic? I really don’t know how to do it!

Chapter 55: A figure in the reservoir? Rumors in the village!
Ruan Shuyu came to the station with her suitcase.

She got on the bus home on time, and glanced at the bustling city in front of her. She felt a little reluctant...

But she quickly put that feeling behind her.

Big cities have their own prosperity;

The countryside also has its own rural atmosphere.

Sitting on the bus going home, Ruan Shuyu felt a little calmer.

She couldn't help but feel happy when she thought about meeting her relatives whom she hadn't seen for a long time...

But at this moment, Ruan Shuyu glanced out of the corner of her eye and was horrified to find that an old monk was standing not far from the station, looking at her coldly.

"he……"

The kindness in Jingheng's eyes disappeared, replaced by an impatient coldness.

"What does he want to do?!"

Ruan Shuyu's heart suddenly turned cold.

She had felt from the beginning that this 'Master Jing Heng' had ill intentions, and now she was even more certain of what she was thinking.

The bus slowly drove out of the station.

The figure of Monk Jingheng disappeared...

"Whoo~"

Ruan Shuyu felt a little relieved.

No matter how malicious the other party's intentions are, I have already left Hangzhou.

He couldn't possibly chase me to the countryside village, right?
Thinking of this, Ruan Shuyu's tense mood gradually relaxed.

She slowly leaned against the car window, watching the road gradually moving backwards. The swaying dizziness made her close her eyes and fall asleep...

Several hours passed in this sleep.

Wait until she opens her eyes.

The bus has already left Hangzhou. Although there are not many vehicles on the suburban roads, there are still quite a few vehicles to be seen ahead and behind.

Ruan Shuyu rubbed her eyes, which made her a little more awake.

There were far fewer passengers in the car.

Now there are only a dozen left...

Most people probably got off the bus halfway.

Ruan Shuyu glanced at the time and found that it was already six o'clock in the evening and it had become completely dark.

After all, this place is very close to the countryside.

It's normal for it to get dark quickly.

"We will be home in half an hour." Ruan Shuyu thought to herself.

She looked out of the car window, where there was a small reservoir. When she was a child, she often came here to play with her friends.

But I don't know what happened later, it seems like something happened? Her family no longer allows her to come here...

"Huh? Someone is burning paper there?"

Ruan Shuyu suddenly noticed a ball of fire not far away.

Looking around, I saw a figure squatting on the edge of the reservoir. There was a fire in front of him, and papers burning to ashes were flying all over the sky and sinking into the reservoir...

It looks a bit weird and creepy.

"Has anyone ever had an accident here?"

Ruan Shuyu frowned.

She suddenly remembered that her family didn't allow her to come here to play when she was a child.

Is it...

Some guesses emerged in Ruan Shuyu's mind.

But she eventually put them all behind her.

"Forget it, let's go back and ask my parents."

Ruan Shuyu thought to himself.

But at this moment, out of the corner of her eye she suddenly noticed a dark shadow flashing across the reservoir.

"Ok?"

Ruan Shuyu looked over in confusion.

The next second, her face suddenly turned pale.

It was as if I had seen something terrible.

Looking ahead, I saw a strange figure appearing on the broad surface of the reservoir. His clothes were completely soaked by water, and drops of water were dripping onto the water surface, creating ripples.

The most frightening thing is...

He just stood on the water out of thin air, emitting a cold aura from his whole body, which made the temperature around him drop a lot.

"Shh-"

The next moment, the sudden black shadow on the water surface disappeared.

Ruan Shuyu shuddered suddenly, staring blankly at the reservoir outside the car window, wondering what he was thinking.

After a while, the bus gradually went away, and the reservoir completely disappeared outside the window.

"What was that just now?"

Ruan Shuyu's voice trembled a little.

She was sure that she was not seeing things, there really was a person... standing on the water?

Moreover, water was still dripping from His body, as if He had just come out of the water.

Wait, just out of the water?

Is it...

Ruan Shuyu was suddenly startled and got goosebumps all over her body.

"Drip drip!"

"We've arrived at Ruanjia Village. Is there anyone who wants to get off?"

Just then, the driver's thick accent suddenly sounded, and he honked the horn several times.

Hearing this, Ruan Shuyu quickly came to his senses and quickly stood up from his seat, pulling his suitcase.

"Master, wait a moment."

She lifted her suitcase with some difficulty and quickly crossed the narrow aisle.

"Clang-crack-"

As soon as I got off the bus, the door closed immediately.

The exhaust fumes were emitted beside him, and Ruan Shuyu couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose...

"Cough cough~"

She coughed twice, then looked around and found herself at the entrance of Ruanjia Village.

So Ruan Shuyu didn't call her family.

Instead, he dragged his suitcase by himself and walked towards his home absentmindedly...

Her mind kept thinking about the figure she had seen at the reservoir before, and she couldn't help feeling a little scared.

I'm obviously scared, but I still think about it.

Really good at cooking and playing...

Before she knew it, Ruan Shuyu had arrived at her doorstep.

"Click~"

The gate suddenly opened.

A woman in her forties came out, holding a wooden bucket in her hand. It seemed that she was going to fetch some well water to drink.
"Mom!" Ruan Shuyu couldn't help but tremble in her voice as she looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her who had a strong rural atmosphere.

The sudden voice startled the middle-aged woman. She suddenly looked up at her daughter in front of her, with a look of surprise on her face:
"Nu'er? You're back?"

"Hey, why didn't you tell me you were back? I could have asked your dad to pick you up!"

"Mom, it's okay. The car just dropped us off at the village entrance, so I walked straight back!" Ruan Shuyu walked forward to help Ruan's mother lift the wooden barrel.

"Mom, let me get you some water."

Some rural areas do not have access to water, but there is usually a well in the village, so if villagers want to drink water or cook, they will choose to draw water from the well and store it at home.

"No, no, there's still some at home. It's okay to fight tomorrow!"

"Let's go back and eat!"

"Your father has already prepared the meal..."

Ruan's mother hurriedly pulled Ruan Shuyu back.

"Okay!" A smile appeared on Ruan Shuyu's delicate face.

The mother and daughter returned home.

Father Ruan was naturally very happy to see his daughter come back.

He is not like the older generation who favors boys over girls.

After all, he has only one daughter in his life, and she is a college student. She has a promising future!

The whole family gathered around the dining table and had a lively reunion dinner.

Ruan Shuyu suddenly asked:

"Dad, did something happen at the reservoir outside the village? I seemed to see someone burning paper there when I came back earlier."

"The reservoir outside the village?"

Hearing this, Father Ruan's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a heavy tone:
"You didn't go there when you came back earlier, did you?"

"No, no..." Ruan Shuyu was frightened by her father's sudden change of attitude. She quickly shook her head and said:

"I just passed by in a car."

"It's good that I didn't go..."

Father Ruan's face returned to calm, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
