Ding Sheng was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Just when he was feeling uneasy, he heard the strange noise coming again.
The noise of ducks and geese was so cruel and heart-breaking that everyone was awakened and the whole family was shocked.
After finally staying up until dawn, silence returned to the abandoned garden.
The servant looked around and found that a big white goose that had been raised at home for many years was missing.
There were a few goose feathers floating on the pond.
It was speculated that the white goose was snatched and eaten by a water monster.
Ding Sheng shuddered when he thought of what he had experienced last night, and had to decide to move out of the abandoned garden.
However, there were dozens of people in the family and a lot of luggage and equipment.
It was not that they could move it immediately.
He only picked up important things and packed them up, and was busy until daybreak.
It's not over yet, so I plan to make do with it for one more night and move out immediately at dawn.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to go out in the morning, Ding Sheng discovered that his five-year-old only son was missing.
This child is smart and well-behaved, and is the most beloved by his master.
The disappearance of the young master caused chaos in the whole family.
Everyone was looking around in the abandoned garden, shouting with their throats broken, but there was no response.
Finally, they saw a small shoe floating on the surface of the pond, which was exactly where the young master was that day. wear.
Ding Sheng was heartbroken when he saw that his beloved son had also suffered an accident.
Mrs.
Ding was about to drown herself on the spot, but the maids and women tried to stop her from jumping in.
The more Ding Sheng thought about it, the more he hated it.
He ordered people to spend a lot of money to hire a water dragon team from Suzhou City to completely drain the water from the pond to see what kind of monster was causing trouble underwater.
Money can make a fool of himself.
The water dragon team in the city heard Master Ding's instructions and immediately set out.
It was not easy to set up water dragons in the garden, so they used large buckets to drain water.
Hundreds of people were busy working together.
When the sun came up, waste The water in the garden pond was almost bottoming out, and in the remaining muddy black water, there was a white object, shaped like a human hand, but much larger than a human hand.
There was a strong man in the Water Dragon Team.
He had followed the Ninth Commander to suppress the bandits.
When the Hunan Army blew open the city wall and invaded Tianjing, he was one of the first to rush in.
He had always been bold and did not believe in ghosts and gods.
At this time, he had the intention to Please reward, Then he volunteered and stood up and said: "Although the remaining water in the pond is not deep anymore, it will take at least two or three hours to drain it completely.
Why don't you let someone go down to the pond, capture the water monster, and hand it over to Ding?"
The master is disappointed."
When Ding Sheng heard this, he praised him repeatedly: "If a strong man can capture this monster alive, the Ding family is willing to reward it with ten gold coins."
The man thanked him for the reward, then untied his clothes, stretched out all his muscles, put his braid on his forehead, picked up a sharpened steel knife with an ox-ear in his mouth, and went down into the pool with his bare arms.
At this time, the muddy black water in the pond was still knee-deep.
As soon as he entered the water, before he could stand firmly, the strange white hand in the water was already chasing people, stretching out more than a foot.
Now speaking, three feet and one meter, one foot is about ten feet, which is really amazing.
The man didn't expect it to be so powerful and was not well prepared.
He was so frightened that his color changed.
He screamed and hurriedly ran away, but he was stuck in the mud and couldn't move.
The monster's hand chased him faster and faster, and the strong man, who weighed more than 100 kilograms, was wrapped up to his waist by it, as effortlessly as dragging a chicken to a goose, and it got tighter and tighter.
Fortunately, there were several people by the pool holding harpoons, and they stabbed him down one after another.
The strange hand was forced to retract into the water, and everyone took the opportunity to pull the strong man up from the bottom of the pool.

The man's face was pale, and he finally calmed down from the shock.
He said that he had passed by just now, and claimed that the strange hand could not see his body, but he felt that his arms were extremely long and endless, and his skin was as smooth as kelp. .
As a result, everyone no longer dared to take it lightly, and continued to drain water with large buckets.
As the water in the pond gradually became shallower, the strange white hand gradually shortened, until the water dried up and bottomed out, and a pillar of flesh was seen growing at the bottom of the pond.
Between the gaps between the stone slabs, there is a shape like a human hand.
It is very tough and cannot be damaged by knives and axes.
It has sparse black hair on its body and wisps of blood and veins on its surface.
It starts to move when it encounters water.
The bottom of the pool is full of dead bones, and it is fishy and filthy.
Master Ding was heartbroken that his beloved son died tragically, so he asked his family to pile up charcoal and burn the strange hand.
It burned until dark and finally withered into ashes.
The smell spread to miles away.
However, what exactly is this monster in the abandoned garden has always been unknown.
No one can tell clearly
