"Yes, did you see where they went?" Seeing that the little girl had met Mr. Zhu and the others, I instantly became nervous.

"Moat, they went to the moat."

When I heard the little girl say that the old man of the Zhu family went to the moat, I frowned.

The moat was originally supposed to be outside the city, but with the development of the times, the moat in Xijiang City has been built into the urban area and has become a scenery in the urban area. However, the name of the moat has not changed.

The moat in Xijiang City is wide and deep, and countless people have drowned in the river. Those who drowned in the river cannot get to the shore without finding a scapegoat. Once I carry a human skin lantern and go to find the old man of the Zhu family,

I'm afraid those unclean things in the river will come out and I will be caught as a scapegoat.

"No matter what, I will risk my life for Zhu Xunuo!" Although the moat is dangerous, I can't care so much for Zhu Xunuo.

After making up my mind, I held a lantern and ran towards the moat astride the wooden box. When I left, the little girl hadn't left yet. Instead, she lowered her head and walked up and down the alley.

Go, seems to be looking for something.

This girl looks to be only three years old, with an innocent look on her face, and she doesn't seem to have any resentment. Why is this little girl with no resentment always wandering in the alley, unwilling to reincarnate?

Out of sympathy for the little girl, I planned to wait until the matter with the old man of the Zhu family was dealt with, and then go back to the little girl to see what was going on with the little girl.

The moat is not far outside the West Street alley. I held a lantern and jogged all the way to the moat. As the dim candlelight illuminated the river, the originally calm river began to become turbulent.

Looking at the undercurrent of the moat, I frowned tightly. Amidst the undercurrent, I vaguely saw several ghostly figures in the water, looking at me.

thump!

The thing in the water noticed my turned gaze, made a splash, plunged into the bottom of the water, and disappeared into the water.

"Help me, someone help me!" Just as I was stunned, a burst of crying came from the distant river. I quickly turned my head and looked into the river, only to see the

Suddenly there was a drowning person.

It's a little kid!

What was struggling in the water was a child of about seven or eight years old. The child had a panicked face and was slapping the water up and down.

Just when I was about to jump into the river to save people, a doubt suddenly flashed through my mind. How could a child come to the river alone this late at night? Thinking of this, I remembered what my grandma told me.

If so, the water ghost in the water will deliberately turn into a drowning person to lure good people into the water in order to find a scapegoat.

Seeing that I was standing on the shore and didn't respond, the child in the water started crying more urgently, and kept making bursts of piercing screams.

The more he behaved like this, the more I strengthened my thoughts. Water ghosts are the most impatient. When they see others not being fooled, they will cry loudly and stir up the minds of people on the shore, thus making people uneasy and causing them to accidentally fall off.

The purpose of entering the water.
