Old Liu Tou looked at me and nodded and continued: "Yuzhuo Village is actually the Navy Camp! The ancestors of the people in the village were all the waterkeepers of the Navy Camp."

Old Liu Tou pointed to the window and said: "Yu Zhu Village is actually a level lower than the river bank. Do you believe it?"

I couldn't help but frown: I did see the whole picture of Yucuo Village from a high place when I came here, but I didn't see that the terrain of Yucuo Village was lower than the river surface. Moreover, such a thing could not happen.

It is common sense that water flows to lower places. No dams have been built in Yuzhuo Village from top to bottom. If Yuzhuo Village was lower than the river surface, it would have been flooded long ago.

Old Liu Tou smiled and said: "I know you don't believe it. In fact, I don't believe it either. However, our ancestors of the Liu family said so."

"At the beginning, there were a total of seven warlocks in the Shuishui camp. Don't forget that there were only seven people in the Shuishui camp, but they were serious military attachés of the first battalion. My ancestor of the Liu family was the commander-in-chief of the Shuishui camp."

"According to our ancestors, this place in Yuzhu Village used to be a pool of water! Then the water suddenly receded and turned into dry land for some unknown reason. After the Shou Shuiying Chief Qian personally inspected it, he took the Shoushuiying people here.

We built the barracks and took root!"

"Later, after the Qing Dynasty came to an end, this place was no longer a military camp. However, the descendants of the seven water-guarding camps are still here, so it became a fish basket village."

When Old Liu Tou said this, he picked up his wine glass and took a sip.

I also listened quietly to what the other party continued to say, there must be stories in Shou Shui Camp.

According to the official ranks of the Qing Dynasty, the commander of the first battalion should be General Qian. The ancestors of the Liu family were only the general, one rank lower than General Qian.

I'm sure the Liu family is not the protagonist of the story, at least not at the beginning.

Old Liu Tou continued: "After the water-shouying camp took root in Yulu Village, it gradually spread its branches and leaves. Slowly it became a village. The ancestors of the seven families passed down all the skills of water-keeping. If it weren't for the ancestors of the seven families,

If everyone suddenly died overnight, we wouldn't be trapped in this village."

I raised my eyebrows: "You mean, all the heads of the seven warlock families died suddenly overnight?"

"Not only the head of the family, but also some skilled warlocks are gone." Old Liu Tou took a sip of wine and said: "Our Liu family can pass down some of our skills because my old man covered me with a quilt before he died.

Master, he survived."

"My great-grandfather said that his father covered him with a quilt, then lay on the quilt, forcing him to pass out. When he woke up, the old man was already out of breath. My great-grandfather

This is how I saved my life."

"That year, most of the fish basket villages were holding funerals!"

Old Liu Tou sighed and said: "From then on, the people in Yuzhu Village can no longer go out. As long as they leave the village for more than ten days, they will definitely die outside. Death from violence, death from illness, or even hanging themselves, in short

It’s a terrible death!”

Old Liu Tou said: "My old man passed away too early and did not pass down all his skills. Starting from my great-grandfather's generation, my family has become a half-baked warlock."

"It's funny to say that I, a half-baked warlock, ended up becoming the defender of the village."

I asked in a deep voice: "What are you guarding?"

"Look at that fish!" Old Liu Tou said, "I'm telling you, I'm telling the truth when I look at that fish. When that fish comes out, someone in the village will definitely die. My grandfather also said,

Only after the fish is killed can we walk out of the village."

I nodded slightly: "What about the ban outside the village?"

"I don't know either!" Old Liu Tou shook his head and said, "I only know that those prohibitions were left by our ancestors. They said they were to ward off ghosts. If any ghosts enter the village, the village will be over. If you don't kill them all,

The sorcerer in the village will not let the ghosts go away."

I asked again: "Has a ghost come in before?"

Old Liu Tou said: "I came in twice. Once was when all the sorcerers of my old family's generation died; and once was when I was young, when my father died."

Old Liu Tou said: "I have been pushing you away, just because I don't want you to die here, because you are also a warlock."

I suddenly frowned: "There were foreign warlocks who died in the village before?"

Old Liu Tou said: "That's when my father died. At that time, my father noticed the signs of ghosts entering the village, so he asked the people who came to the village to collect fish and invited a few experts from outside. As a result, my father added

All the last five masters are gone."

There were tears in the corners of Lao Liutou's eyes: "My father is gone, and my son is gone too. I am the only lonely old man left in the family. Sometimes, I also think about it, just don't teach me as an apprentice. When I close my eyes,

Maybe the ghosts outside won’t look for us.”

"But I'm still afraid! I'm afraid, if I'm thinking wrongly, if I die, who else in the village will know magic? If the ghost comes in and kills everyone on sight, the folks in the village will have no chance of survival."

After Old Liu Tou finished speaking, he started pouring wine into his mouth. I turned the glass and said, "Do everyone in the village know these things?"

Old Liu Tou gave a bitter smile and said, "How could you not know? If no one knew, where did all the strong laborers come from in the village, they would all go out to work."
