The tongue in the water god's mouth is obviously only about half that of a normal person. It is impossible to speak with such a short tongue. Why did Ye Xun say that he had heard the Water God speak
When I looked at Ye Xun, the latter also looked at me with clear eyes.
I said with a sullen face: "Don't you want to say something?"
"I don't want to explain anything. If you don't believe me, let's just go our own way!" Ye Xun stood up, said a few words and turned around to leave.
"Wait a moment!" I stood up and blocked Ye Xun with a long knife in one hand. The latter said calmly: "You are no match for me, and I don't want to hurt you."
Without saying a word, I held the handle of the knife and aimed at Ye Xun's vitals. The latter also took a step away and put his hands behind his back - there must be something hidden in the guitar box behind him.
Just when I was about to take action, a scream suddenly came from the direction of the Water God. When I turned my head for a moment, I saw the water god whose hands and feet were tied up by me, bouncing crazily from the ground like a fish with only its torso sideways. While the sand and stones on the ground were flying all over the sky, the Water God suddenly stopped moving, twitched twice in a row, and made no movement.
The water god is dead
As soon as this thought flashed through my mind, I saw a layer of gill-like things rising up from the side of the water god's neck.
I was stunned for two or three seconds before looking at Ye Xun: "Sorry!"
I have carefully observed the water god captured by Ye Xun last time. If the two water gods are compared together, the former is more human-like. Apart from fish scales and fish eyes, it does not have many characteristics of fish. The water god in front of me is more interested in fish, and has even grown fish gills. The last water god could probably talk.
Ye Xun calmly put down his palm and said, "It doesn't matter. Now that the Water God is gone, what should we do?"
I raised my head and looked at the sky: "It's almost dawn, let's find a place to hide first."
Ye Xun and I hid by the lake for a whole day, and I was worried the whole day. The clues are now truly broken. The trip we made last night failed to catch the talking water god, but it left clues to the police. The police would definitely patrol along the lake shore, and it would be impossible for us to catch the water god again.
I always thought I was very smart, but now it seems like nothing is included in my calculations.
Although Ye Xun's appearance solved some of my doubts, it gave me even greater doubts. Before I could escape from the pursuit of ghosts, I was involved in the strange things of the water god, and I even had frog skin growing on my body. Fortunately, I got all my classmates into the police station, otherwise my current situation would be even more troublesome.
Ghosts are chasing me;
The water god is chasing me;
The police are chasing me too.
I can't handle any random one I bump into.
If I want to go home smoothly, I have to get rid of the ghost; if I want to cure the frog skin on my body, I have to deal with the water god; if I want to prove my innocence, I have to find evidence.
These things require finding clues first. But where can I find clues now
My classmates are dead, my tour guide is dead, the owner of the antique shop is dead, the water god is also dead, and all the clues that can be found are broken.
I just felt like my head was in a mess. It wasn't until Ye Xun brought me dinner that I looked at Ye Xun and said, "I'm going to go to the antique shop to have a look. Are you going?"
Ye Xun nodded and said, "Okay. But does it make sense for you to go there?"
I frowned and said: "I always feel that there must be something in the antique store that I neglected. I have to go back and take a look..."
While I was talking, I saw two joint defense members walking over from a distance. Ye Xun and I quickly hid. The two joint defense members didn't see us, so they put a notice on the telephone pole and turned around and left.
The two people posted a photo of the police offering a reward for information, and the person in the photo was me.
I'm not surprised by the reward offered by the police. After all, when I talked to Zhang Shu, I had some intention of continuing to "commit crimes." The police will not sit idly by and allow vicious crimes to occur.
What surprised me was the photo next to my profile photo. It was exactly the bronze vessel the shop owner showed me. The general meaning of the announcement is that I may have fled with important cultural relics, and the general public is requested to provide clues.
After reading it, I couldn't help laughing: "Haha... there is no end to the road, our opportunity has come."
Ye Xun frowned and said, "Why didn't I see the opportunity?"
I recounted the conversation between myself and the owner of the antique shop to Ye Xun, and then explained: "That boss's words may fool a layman, but they will never fool an insider."
The two biggest sources of business in the antique shop are from collecting white goods from run-down families, and from stealing illegal goods from thieves. The top figures in the antique shop have all had more or less dealings with thieves.
When a person in a thief gets a valuable weapon, unless they are doing business alone, they will definitely monitor each other to prevent anyone from eating it alone. The owner of the antique shop said that they originally divided the heavy item into three parts and each took one piece to go their own way, which was obviously a lie. He may not interact with those two accomplices, but they will never be too far away, and they must know each other's whereabouts. As long as one family can get out the heavy equipment and the wiring, the other two will come to the door without any special contact. This is the nature of the thieves, and no one can change it.
Since the police posted such a notice, the boss's two remaining accomplices must also be looking for me. As long as the other party comes, our opportunity will also come.
After Ye Xun heard my explanation, he frowned a little tighter: "How do you know they will definitely come to you first? What if it's the police who come?"
I shook a finger and said: "You don't understand people in the world. Their information is often better than the police. I bet you that the people who find us first will definitely be the two tomb robbers. In this way, don't worry about it first." Follow me, I’ll go out for a spin, and then we can just find a place to wait for the fish to bite.”
When I said this, I paused deliberately and said, "If the other party doesn't use the gun, how many people can you hit?"
Ye Xun said solemnly: "At most, I have singled out twenty people."
"That's enough." After deliberately separating from Ye Xun, I walked all the way to the edge of the county town. I remember when we came here by bus, there were several small hotels near the county seat. Behind the hotels were barren mountains, which was perfect for us to hang out with people.
I first found a small hotel, deliberately covered half of my face with a sanitation hat, walked to the front desk of the hotel, and asked with a Northeastern accent: "Boss, in addition to accommodation, do you provide food here?"
When the shopkeeper looked at my face, I deliberately moved aside. The latter didn't see my face clearly and couldn't help but said warily: "If you want to stay at the hotel, register first and give me your ID card."
"Then I can't stay any longer." I turned around and walked out, running around the back of the hotel and running up the mountain without looking back.
When I walked into the mountain, Ye Xun caught up quietly and said, "Aren't you afraid that the boss will call the police?"
I laughed and said, "Such a small hotel doesn't have a very good relationship with the police. Instead, it has the same trousers as the Jianghu people. They are more likely to contact the Jianghu people. Besides, if they call the police, Can’t we still run?”
Ye Xun was so angry that I stared at him, but I didn't take it seriously and said, "You can find a place to hide for now, and we'll act accordingly later."
I found a place with leeward wind and sat down, leaning against a tree and closing my eyes to meditate. It wasn't long before I heard footsteps. When I stood up and looked outside, four or five people had already gathered around me.
The person in the lead shined a flashlight on my face, and took advantage of the flashlight to look at the notice in his hand: "That's him!"
Several people suddenly gathered around me, and I saw the opportunity, raised the scabbard, and hit one of them on the head hard. When blood spattered from the man's head, Ye Xun suddenly emerged from the grass and whipped his whip at the man's head. The latter fell to the ground without saying a word.
Ye Xun didn't even look at the other person, and struck the other person's neck...
In just a few seconds, Ye Xun and I put all the four people who gathered around us to the ground. Only the leader was still standing there. Although the person whose head was smashed by me did not faint, he covered his head and rolled on the ground in pain.
I slowly walked up to the other person and kicked him on the head. After the man's head hit the stone next to him with a "bang", the whole person became silent.
The leader, who had been calm just now, finally changed his tone when he saw me kicking his men unconscious: "What do you mean, two friends?"
I looked the other person up and down and said, "My name is Wang Huan, and I am the person on the wanted poster in your hand. Are you chasing me for the bounty?"
The man pretended to be calm and said: "I didn't understand what you meant. I did offend my friend. If..."
I interrupted before the other party finished speaking: "I don't like to talk in roundabout ways. I only found your friend because I offended the Water God, and I haven't seen the actual object of that heavy weapon. It should be a fallen weapon." In the hands of the water god. I brought you here just to survive."
When I said this, my face suddenly darkened, and I looked at the other person with a fierce look in my eyes: "If my friend doesn't give me a way to survive, I don't care if someone's life is on my hands."
The other party hesitated for a while and then said slowly: "How can I trust you?"
The other party is also an old Jianghu. The older the Jianghu is, the more suspicious he becomes, and he will not easily believe in threats of life and death. I can't win the other party's trust, and the rest of the matter may be very troublesome. After all, I won't really kill the other party.
After a slight silence, I quickly untied the gauze on my arm: "This is the wound left by the Water God. See for yourself!"
The man shined a flashlight on my arm and came over immediately. He grabbed my arm with one hand and pressed it with the other hand on the frog skin and rubbed it repeatedly. Then his expression changed and he said: "Follow me first."
Ye Xun and I looked at each other, and the latter nodded slightly, and then I followed the man down the mountain. The man took me into the car they left at the foot of the mountain, told the hotel owner to go to the mountain to find someone, and took me and Ye Xun away.
