Chapter 398

"I went fishing with the hook three times and four times, but all the bait was consumed, and I was dragged by you for several hours when I cast the net to catch the fish! How can you forgive me for teasing me like this?"

After finishing speaking, Li Pu raised his hand and hit, fists and slaps fell on the monster like raindrops.

After a while, the monster was beaten by Li Pu and fell to the ground, covering its head with both hands.

"Heroic man, spare your life, heroic man, spare your life! If you want fish, I will give it to you, and I will give it to you."

The monster yelled and begged for mercy. Li Pu hit him hard. He didn't doubt that Li Pu really wanted to beat him to death.

"Spare your life? Well, tell me about your background first. If you dare to hide anything, I won't recognize anyone with my fist!"

Li Pu looked at the various strange features on this person, and was also a little puzzled in his heart, how could such a good ghost become like this.

Only then did the monster tell the story one by one.

It turned out that this monster was the son of a merchant who lived by the Haitang Lake. He came to buy fish and shrimp once, and after tasting it, he fell in love with the fish and shrimp in this lake.

Later, his family was in decline, but he liked to eat fish and shrimps, so he thought about going fishing by himself when he couldn't buy them.

Unexpectedly, after sitting for a few days, he didn't catch a fish.

In a fit of anger, the man boarded the boat and cast the net, but he never wanted to be taken into the lake by the net, and died full of resentment in his heart.

Since then, those who fish by the lake have suffered.

After his death, because of resentment and nostalgia, coupled with the accumulation of Yin Qi at the bottom of the lake, he turned into a ghost.

Watching other people catch fish with nets in the lake every day, my heart is full of resentment and resentment.

Why can they catch fish, but I was killed by the fishing net alone?

This resentment built up over time, and eventually the monster started killing people.

As long as a fisherman casts a net, he will hide under the water and pull down the net. When the fisherman can't catch the net and falls into the lake, he will go forward and eat the fisherman.

When the fisherman's mutilated body was salvaged, other fishermen saw the tragic state of the body and thought it was eaten by fish and shrimp in the lake.

The more he killed, the happier the monster felt, until no one in this lake dared to fish anymore.

"Is this... the grievance of the Air Force guy?"

Li Pu was dumbfounded when he heard that, the good guy still does this.

"Are there other ghosts besides you in this lake?"

"No more, I'm the only one in this lake..."

Li Pu was a little disappointed when he heard this, and immediately grabbed the monster by the neck.

"Now, I will give you two ways, one is that I will kill you..."

Before Li Pu finished speaking, the monster said immediately.

"I choose the second one, the second one."

"Okay, although it's just a rotten fish and rotten shrimp, it can be considered time-sensitive, go in now."

Li Pu took out the lantern from behind. Even though the lantern was underwater just now, it never went out, which is very strange.

The monster instinctively felt that it would be bad if it went in, but now the situation is stronger than humans, and it may not necessarily die if it goes in, but if it doesn't go in, it will die now.

The monster sighed, and then got into the lantern.

Li Pu looked passive and added another layer, with a smile on his face.

Although the fish was not caught today, it was still a harvest, not counting the air force.

Li Pu looked back at the sun, and found that there was still some time before night fell.

Then he found the fishing rod he had left behind by the lake, and started fishing again.

"Before I couldn't catch fish, it was because of that ghost thing's troubles. Now that thing has been tightened into the lantern, maybe I can throw two more shots."

In the middle of the night, the inn was empty, and the boss was lying on the counter and was about to fall asleep.

At this moment, Li Pu walked in from the door. The fishing rod that he brought out in the morning went to nowhere, and he only held a lantern in his hand.

The boss stepped forward to take the bucket from Li Pu with a big smile on his face.

"The guest officer has caught a few fish, I'll cook for the guest officer."

Li Pu's face suddenly became a little unnatural, and then returned to calm.

"I've been tired of eating fish for a long time, so I didn't rush for fish today."

"The guest officer was joking, this barrel is very heavy, there must be a lot of fish, guest officer don't worry, I will cook the fish in Haitang Lake..."

While the boss was talking, he opened the bucket in Li Pu's hand.

"Ah... this... this is... an eel!? Why are there eels in the lake?"

.........

Early the next morning, Li Pu left the inn.

Carrying a lantern and a sickle, he continued to rush to Lanruo Temple.

If he remembered correctly, Lanruo Temple was just outside a village under the Ningyue Mansion that the boss had mentioned.

But Li Pu didn't know exactly where it was, and it took a lot of searching.

After two days of walking, Li Pu came to Ningyue Mansion.

Ningyue Mansion is a well-known big city nearby, and it is also the seat of Dongyang County. The magistrate and other high-ranking officials live in this Ningyue Mansion.

As soon as he walked into the Ningyue Mansion, he felt like he was in the world.

There were people coming and going in Fucheng, and there were peddlers hawking continuously on the streets on both sides.

After passing the street where the hawkers are, you will come to the street where a large number of taverns and shops are located.

There are countless kinds of goods in these shops, and people come and go in red and green, and they are either rich or expensive.

Then go in and you will come to the riverside of Ningyue Prefecture. This Ningyue Prefecture city is built along the river, known as the Three Rivers and Six Banks.

Therefore, different shores have different functions. On the other side away from the cargo pier, there is a special wharf.

This wharf is not as rough as the cargo wharf just now. The boats here are all painted with dragons, phoenixes, gold threads and silver threads. Although the boats are big, their draft is not deep.

There were all kinds of teasing and laughing sounds coming from the boat. Although this place was not as good as the ten miles of Qinhuai, it still had a special taste.

At this moment, a scream sounded on the flower boat.

After a while, everyone knew that someone's heart and liver had been gouged out, and only a skin was thrown into the river.

Two people walked out of the crowd, still talking non-stop.

"What day is this month?"

"It's the eighth one. I don't know why such evil things keep happening recently, and I don't know where these corpses come from."

After listening to the chat between the two, Li Pu also felt a little curious in his heart, so he stepped forward to look at the corpse.

The corpse has been washed white by the river, and it seems that he has been killed for several days.

Moreover, this person was cut open from the chest to the lower abdomen, and the organs in it were gone.

And the wound doesn't look like it was opened with a sharp weapon, it's more like...a nail?
Li Pu was observing the corpse, but he didn't expect that there was a green light spot on the corpse that merged into the lantern.

"There is a soul?"

Although he gained a layer of passivity, Li Pu didn't take it to heart. After all, in this world, he can sometimes gain a layer or two of passivity while walking on the road.

Now his passive has also reached the 280th floor, and he can't even look down on one or two floors.

Unexpectedly, in the past few days when Li Pu was looking for Lanruo Temple, this kind of corpse would always float on the river, and he would harvest his soul every time.

"No! I have to get rid of this monster!"

The souls of these people must not be allowed to suffer in the world!
After thinking about it, Li Pu took the lantern and walked towards the upper reaches of the river.
