I looked at Yaqing, who was still floating on the water, and immediately agreed to the old man.
"Okay, we can promise you, but you must keep Yaqing safe and let him come back to shore now," I said to the old man.
The old man said, Yaqing will definitely be fine, I just have to go back and get something, he will definitely not touch Yaqing's hair. ” I pursed my lips and nodded.
"You are still knowledgeable about current affairs, I am not wrong about you."
The old man giggled, "Actually, if you want to drag your friend back from the water, it's easy, just swim over and row the raft over." ” Xinyue immediately stopped Linzi, she said that Linzi can't go into the water anyway, she must not go, and it is better for others not to go, because there is something strange at the bottom of this lake, and when you get out of the water, you will not be the original person when you come back.
Xinyue's words made me shudder, "It's not the same person anymore, what do you mean?"
Before Xinyue could answer me, the old man suddenly became angry.
"Little girl, you know too many things, because of these things, your little life is about to go in, why are you still so ignorant" Xinyue completely ignored the old man's threat, she said: "It's because my life is about to go in, so I won't stop there."
I will never let you and this broken lake harm people again."
When she shouted these words, she trembled all over, like a skeleton of bones about to fall apart.
"You know what, I'm a victim too," the old man's voice changed.
"Okay, don't you guys quarrel, old man, didn't you say that as long as I came here, I would get the answer" I interrupted their argument.
"You go back first, and when you give me what I want, I will naturally tell you the whole truth."
The old man stood up as he spoke, and drops of water dripped down the corners of his clothes, and I saw that his trouser legs were even crawling with green algae, a plant that only found in water.
The old man's shoes were full of water, and he walked in front of me with a chirp, feeling like he could squeeze out a lot of water with every step.
Xinyue said that they are both human and ghosts.
The strange old man in front of him is really like a ghost crawling out of the water.
And the back of him leaving is so familiar, as if it is the old man with the back painted by Wang Ying's father, like the Mu Kun I have seen.
He never showed his face, didn't he have a face at all I've never been so bold to imagine that maybe this weird old man is Mu Kun, but he has changed his clothes and has a different hairstyle, but in fact, he may be Mu Kun No, I have to see what he looks like.
Thinking so, I mustered up the courage to chase after him, although I wanted to see and was afraid to see his face, but this time, I had to determine whether he was Mu Kun or not.
Xiaoxue and Xinyue were worried about me and tried to stop me, but I shook off their hands and walked straight towards the old man.
Because I was in too much of a hurry, I almost fell by the slippery lake.
I put my hand on his shoulder, which was unusually cold and wet.
"Wait a minute."
I say.
The old man stopped, and I immediately pulled him over the shoulder, "Who the hell are you?"
He turned around, but he still hung his head, and didn't look up at me at all, like a dead man.
At this time, I noticed the back of his neck.
There's a loop of sutures on it.
That is, he had been wounded in the neck, or his head had fallen off but sewn it up again "See," he asked, hanging his head and pointing to the back of his neck.
"Look, I see," I replied, stunned.
"You're going to know who I am right away, go back, bring things back a day earlier, see my face a day earlier, and the truth will be one step closer to you."
As he spoke, he turned slowly, raised his head, and continued walking.
Obviously, he didn't want me to see what he looked like.
I stood there as if I had been petrified.
"How is it, do you see his appearance" Linzi had already walked over and asked me nervously.
I shook my head, "No" "Ah, you were so close to him just now, I thought you must have seen it, why didn't you take the opportunity to take a look," Linzi said regretfully.
I don't regret it, because now all I see is the suture on the old man's neck.
"However, I saw that there were stitches on his neck, as if" I turned my head to look at Xiaoxue.
She frowned, and then I said, "Qiangzi, do you want to say that the sutures are like when I used to stitch up Uncle Liu's body."
I nodded, "Yes, so, I suspect that his head is long gone, and now the head on his body may be just a temporary substitute, so he doesn't dare to see people." ” Xiaoxue couldn't help but gasp, and Linzi couldn't help but say: ", Qiangzi, don't scare me, then this old man is a living corpse or a ghost."
"I don't know, and I don't want to scare you, but if you think about why he wants that head and that drum, didn't Xinyue say that the drum is related to their life and death."
I swallowed and continued, "So I suspect that he wanted the head to be placed on his body, and that the drum might be able to bring him back to his soul by borrowing a corpse or something. ” After hearing this, Xinyue immediately told me that she had also thought of this, so she must not give the old man the head and the drum.
Wang Ying pursed her lips, "The problem now is that we have a head, but we don't have a divine drum, so even if we want to, we can't give it to him."
I don't think the fourth uncle would agree to give the divine drum to such a stranger. ” "Anyway, let's go back and try, you can't watch Yaqing die," he said, walking back.

All I can think about now is who he is and what the truth is about him After walking a few steps, I couldn't help but glance back at the red wooden house behind me.
But at this glance, I saw a man.
Woman standing in the window.
I met her eyes, and there was a look of resentment in her eyes.
This woman is the woman in the painting of Wang Ying's father, and it is also the woman pen I just saw in the rearview mirror of the car, and has been following the back of our car She and the old man are what Xinyue said they were, and she is also a half-human, half-ghost monster At this moment, I didn't want to do anything, I just wanted to run away and leave this weird and terrifying ancient town forever.
But his feet were like lead, and he couldn't move a step.
My back was already soaking wet, and it was sticky to my skin, and it was very uncomfortable.
"Qiangzi, what's wrong with you" Xiaoxue asked me with concern.
It was in the blink of an eye that the woman disappeared.
