My eyes quickly swept through the reeds, and the fire spots turned into dark figures in my sight.

Many people were holding reeds and squatting in the water, looking at me from a distance and sneering.

My eyes slid down a person's body to the soles of his feet, and I saw a pair of ankles that were soaked in water and turned white.

The man also stood up from the water under my gaze and slowly raised his soles covered by the water.

The moment the opponent's ankle just emerged from the water, I suddenly reached out with my left hand. The soul-chasing rope wrapped around my wrist was already shaped like a sharp arrow and shot backwards behind me. A section of the soul-chasing rope was half a foot into the ground in an instant. My left hand

It flew upwards angrily, and a figure was dragged up into the air by my soul-chasing rope.

The moment the flying figure fell from the air out of the corner of my eye, the ghostly figure on the water's edge rose up and rushed straight in front of me.

I glanced sideways at the ghost figures that were rushing in quickly. The Midnight Scimitar I drew out with my right hand flew up diagonally from behind me. The wind-whistling blade flew up into the air along my shoulder and back, and swept close to the chain on my left hand.

At the same time as it shot into the air, the soul-chasing rope on his right hand also swept out like a long whip.

The sound of human bodies being torn apart in the middle of the night, and the sound of soul-chasing ropes crushing ghosts, all exploded around me in no particular order.

Fireflies were flying in the sky, and the sky was filled with reed flowers in front of me. Green phosphorus fire and burnt reed flowers were everywhere, and the soul-chasing rope fell from the sky at the same time as Midnight.

I turned around and raised my hand to catch Midnight, pointing the knife at the water. The two soul-chasing ropes hanging from my wrists vibrated against the ground. The buzzing and trembling sound was like two poisonous snakes raising their heads and spitting messages, warning the enemy.

Don't act rashly.

When all the reed flowers fell in front of me, my face darkened slightly.

The ones that came out of the water just now were not ghosts, but the talisman soldiers of the Warlock Envoy. Someone buried the talisman in the reeds on the shore. That was the reason why when I shattered the ghosts, I saw no phosphorus fire but only reed flowers.

Was it Old Liu Tou who took action?

As soon as the doubts arose in my mind, I saw ripples forming under the reeds.

I saw ripples exploding on the water's edge, and people took a step back.

Before I could even stand firmly on my feet, a blazing fire shot up into the sky from the reed swamp. The fire, which was over one meter high, was like a swimming fire dragon, swimming down close to the riverside. In an instant, hundreds of people were attracted by the fire.

There were fierce flames, and half of the sky was burned red by the fire.

The reed marsh suddenly caught fire. I didn't have time to think about the cause of the fire. I quickly used the dragon's head buckle on the soul-seeking rope to catch the handle of Ziye's knife. With a stroke of the knife from my hand, I threw Ziye into the depths of the fire.

The roaring midnight turned upside down in the air, with the handle of the knife in front and the tip of the knife rushing backward toward the blazing flames.

Midnight was still half a foot away from the flames when the bones on the handle of the knife suddenly spread out with five fingers, like ghost claws grabbing at the flying fire.

The fire snake dancing in the sky was blown to both sides by the sinister wind brought by the ghost's hand, allowing the midnight scimitar to drive straight in and grasp the depth of the reed.

When I pulled back the soul-chasing rope, Midnight's ghostly hand had already grasped something.

Before I had time to see what Midnight had caught, I heard a sound of footsteps behind me - Old Liu Tou led a large number of villagers and rushed over from a distance.

When Old Liu Tou saw me standing by the water, he was so angry that he was shaking all over: "As expected, it's you. I know you don't have any good intentions! Young and old men, if he dares to set a fire, beat him to death!"

The villagers didn't care whether what Old Liu Tou said was true or not, they rushed towards me with shovels and pickaxes in hand.

I sheathed my machete and ran away. When I tried to run, even the bobcats couldn't catch up with me, let alone the ordinary villagers. I just turned a corner not far from them, so they couldn't see me.

My figure is gone.

Those people didn't know that I was actually standing less than twenty meters away from them.

After I inhaled the Yin Qi, I became a ghost with weight. None of them had opened their Yin and Yang eyes, so how could they see me.

The villagers walked back, and I walked with them into the village.

The person walking in front of me said in a low voice: "There's something evil going on tonight! Mr. Liu is knocking on the door like crazy, asking who heard any noise? Is there any noise at your house?"

"Don't tell me, I really listened. I heard something moving under my water tank. The sound was like someone scratching the bottom of the water tank with their fingers."

"That's nonsense. How can a person get under a water tank?"

While the two were talking, I heard someone say in a low voice: "The most evil thing is that the reed marsh is on fire. Think about it, when has the reed marsh ever caught fire? When we were young, didn't the older generation all say: "The reed marsh is on fire."

Are there daffodils living there? We are never allowed to go there. Think about it, who has ever seen a reed marsh on fire?"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but frown slightly: This fish basket village didn't look as simple as I thought.

There are not only water guards outside the village, but also water guardians.

I roughly calculated the distance from the fire on the river bank just now. The flames burned down from the upper reaches. The fire point was near the water hole where Wang Li drowned. The place where the flames extinguished happened to be stuck in front of Old Liu Tou's house.
