Under One: The Dragon's Wife

Chapter 231 The Thing in the River

Bai Yufei is not surprised: "He is not the only one who suffers from this disease. Many people wash their clothes in the river. The water bags are dirty, and they are reluctant to spend money to buy bottled water to permeate (pass) through the river. I got pustules on my clothes, and it was itchy, and my body was rotten from scratching. I couldn’t take medicine and wipe it off, and it was the same when I went to the hospital. I wasted money and couldn’t be cured, so no one went to treat it. It just didn’t look good. It's itchy, but I don't want to die."

This is the normal state of life, the environment is only like this, and life is forced.In the eyes of others, they may feel that they are better off living like this, but for them, it is not bad to be alive.

Dinner at Bai Yufei's house in the evening, Bai Yufei's parents are good cooks, and there are a lot of wild game on the table.

Bai Yufei got drunk after a few glasses of wine, and told me that the restaurants on the street were not clean. Because of saving water, the dishes and chopsticks might not be washed, which is why he didn't take me to the restaurant.

Uncle Liu also ate at his house, but he ate with a bowl on the side, and didn't serve it. Bai Yufei's mother brought a lot of delicious dishes for Uncle Liu, and it almost couldn't fit in a large bowl. Although it couldn't be served, the people here It's good for Uncle Liu.

In order not to neglect Nalan Chun, I asked them to prepare an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks. When they saw the chopsticks moving and the dishes were scarce, they were a little scared at first, but then they were not afraid.

When Uncle Liu was born, he was the only one left in the family. He grew up eating a lot of food. In fact, he is only in his 50s, but his hair is graying quickly. Others say that he traded his life for the peace here. Now Liu Uncle is getting old and can't handle it.

While eating, the bowl in Uncle Liu's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the food scattered all over the floor.He stared blankly at the direction of the river for a few minutes. Bai Yufei's mother gave him another meal and he didn't eat it, and he became restless again: "Umm... people... dead... "

I stood up abruptly: "In the river?"

Uncle Liu kept nodding his head, and ran to the river first, stumbling along the way, fell several somersaults, and his head was bleeding.

When we got to the river, Uncle Liu kept circling on the bank. The water level was too low for people to go down. We could only vaguely see something bouncing on the river under the moonlight.

Uncle Liu sat down on the ground, weeping, and didn't say a word. Nalan Chun sniffed the air and said, "There is something in the river. It was indeed dead just now. It can't be done now. Let's wait until dawn."

I am more worried about Uncle Liu now, so I let him sleep at Bai Yufei's house at night. A real person is in front of my eyes...

The next morning, someone's body was found by a village woman who went to wash clothes. It was bitten to pieces by something unknown.

The family who came to collect the corpse cried so hard that they almost lost their souls. Nalan Chun searched the river bank and preliminarily deduced that he fell into the water by slipping.

Bai Yufei said: "The pollution in this river is very serious. There are many strange things that I don't know. Before I went fishing well, I caught a strange fish with long legs. It was so dark that he threw it back. If it continues to be tender Come on, no one dares to live in Leli anyway."

A few years ago, there was a police station here, just on the street. People from the police station came to investigate and took the body away, but nothing happened.I heard from Bai Yufei that those factories have been rectified recently, and they are not allowed to pollute the river anymore, but the river water will not be able to return to its former clarity in a short time.According to Bai Yufei's recollection, when he was a child, he often went swimming in the river with his friends. At that time, the river water was very clear, and a group of fishes would rush to grab some food if they threw some rice.The squid he was talking about is a long, slender fish with delicious meat. Its maximum length is only about [-] centimeters, but its body is only as wide as a finger, and it only appears when the water quality is good. It is no longer seen.

I looked at the river surface with strange colors and garbage floating there, and I was a little disappointed. What is there on the bottom of the invisible river?

Just as I was staring at the river, there was a wave of ripples, as if something big passed by in the water, but it didn't come out, and I couldn't see what it was.

Nalan Chun picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it into the water. His force was so great that the object in the water was hit, causing even bigger ripples. A black fish tail emerged from the water and disappeared soon after. Yes, many people have seen it, and they say it is a big fish, a mutated big fish, at least a hundred catties, because the tail is really scary just by looking at it.

No one in this kind of river has ever seen such a big fish, which is very strange.

I asked Nalan Chun if there was any way to figure out what was going on here and how it could become like this. Things, naturally need water, how can this place be so dry?The wells have dried up, and the river is half full.

After hearing what he said, I was also confused. My knowledge is not enough, and I can't figure out what's going on. At this time, I thought of Yan Ruyu. She was born in the royal family of the sea. I dare not touch this river. She must have a way to help me. To know what is in the water, we can only investigate step by step, first get rid of the things in the water, and then find out the cause of the drought.

In the past, I didn't dare to look for Yan Ruyu for this kind of thing. It's fine if she doesn't trip me up, but now it's different. She really changed because of Qu Qingxiao. From the time she knelt in front of me and begged me, I It completely changed her view of her. A woman who loves her man so much can give her life for him, and is going to be a mother soon, so it's not that bad.

You can invite not only your own immortal family, but also other immortal families. As long as Yan Ruyu is willing to talk to me, you can invite me.

I went to a place where no one was around and took out a soldier talisman, bit my finger and wrote Yan Ruyu's name on it, and soon the talisman paper was on fire, and Bai Yufei stared straight at it: "I lit it myself? God what……"

Yan Ruyu quickly appeared, she didn't get on me, and there was no need for that.Naturally, other people couldn't see her, so she asked me with her stomach full: "I really didn't expect you to find me. Is there anything I can do for you?"

After speaking, she seemed to smell something strange, her brows were wrinkled together, and she retched a few times.Seeing her like this, I felt a little suspenseful: "Well... I came here to see things, except for this river, which is still half full of water, everything else has died of drought, there is no grass, the ground What was planted and what died, no one here has been pregnant for three years, it is very evil. Last night, someone slipped and fell into the river, was eaten by something, and his head was eaten away. Just now we saw It's a huge black fish, it's impossible to see that the tail weighs more than a hundred catties. The water quality here is not good, and many fish are probably mutated. I thought maybe you can help me find out if there is anything in the water, So I invite you to come."
