Strange World: I was admitted to City God

Chapter 58 The water ghost, Xiaomu, is of good deeds

Xiao Mu is a water ghost.

She couldn't remember when she had lived at the bottom of the river, only that it had been a long, long time.

She still remembers that when she was alive, many strange things happened around the village.

People in the village always shouted things like "Don't blame ghosts and gods, pray for the blessing of the river god".

One day, she was dressed up beautifully by the villagers, put on a brand new white dress, combed two ponytails, and was washed clean by two old ladies.

The people in the village put her on a bamboo raft, and there were fruits, gold and silver, and a delicious roast suckling pig on the bamboo raft.

Sitting on the bamboo raft, she floated lightly to the middle of the river, and then the water began to surge upwards.

She was a little panicked and wanted to stand up and run away, but found that her ankles were tightly tied to the iron rod in the middle of the bamboo raft and she couldn't move.

She looked towards the shore, and the shore was surrounded by villagers, who watched her being swallowed by the river indifferently.

Then she sank to the bottom of the river with the fruits, gold and silver, and suckling pig.

"Xiao Mu, I'm so scared."

When she sank to the bottom of the river, her eyes filled with tears.

I don't know how long it took, Xiao Mu woke up from the haze. She felt that she was so cold, so cold to the bone.

It didn't take long for her to find that she could swim in the river, and she could swim around like a small fish, with a light body.

But then she discovered that she could only move in a fixed area, and she couldn't swim in that area no matter what.

It was fun at first, but gradually, life became more and more boring.

Xiao Mu wants to meet some new friends.

But the sunlight during the day is very vicious, and it seems to be burning her body, causing her body to emit green smoke.

Therefore, she hides at the bottom of the deepest river during the day, hiding among the aquatic plants at the bottom of the river, watching scallops and crabs moving at the bottom of the river.

Wait until night to come out.

That night, the sky was dark, and Xiao Mu saw a couple by the river. It seemed that because it was a little hot in summer, the two began to undress each other.

Xiao Mu thought it was very interesting and wanted to get to know them.

So she slowly floated up from the river.

Xiao Mu's braids have long since disappeared, and now her hair is black and straight, kept at waist level, she is wearing white clothes, and her face is a little pale.

Every time she went ashore, her face and body were covered with water stains, and she could still see the water flowing.

She came to the shore, looked at the men and women who were having fun, and laughed like silver bells, and asked:
"What are you playing?"

"My name is Xiao Mu, can we play together?"

Her voice startled the couple.

The man looked back and saw a female ghost with disheveled hair, water weeds on her body, and pale skin, and he yelled in horror:

"Ah, ghost, ghost!"

The man didn't even bother to pick up his pants, turned his head and ran away, in a state of madness.

The woman was lying on the grass, facing Xiao Mu head-on, she was stunned, her pupils were dilated.

"Hey, what is he running for?"

"Because of me?"

Xiao Mu has a nice voice and a cute appearance.

But, under the moonlight, she is shining.

Her body emitted an illusory light, even somewhat transparent.

"Ah~~~~"

The woman screamed in horror, turned around and used her arms and legs, ran wildly like a strange species, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Seeing their appearance, Xiao Mu froze in place, her eyes full of loss and guilt.

She realizes that people are afraid of her.

"Sorry for interrupting your play."

Xiao Mu said slightly apologetically.

Later, Xiao Mu tried again, but the result was exactly the same.

When people by the river saw her, they would yell "Ghost, ghost" in horror, and then run away, never daring to come back.

Since then, Xiao Mu has not gone ashore and has been living at the bottom of the river.

Although life is a bit boring, it is good to see small fish, shrimps and crabs every day.

In this way, the days passed day by day.

On this day, Xiao Mu was hiding among the water plants to avoid the sun, when she suddenly heard a "plop" sound above her head.

Then, she saw a girl fall into the river, struggling.

The girl was about the same age as her, Xiao Mu wanted to go and save her.

"It's so lonely in the river, don't come in the river."

"It's good to be alive!"

However, before she could swim up, another person jumped down, who seemed to be trying to save the girl.

So, Xiao Mu continued to hide and watch.

She saw the movements of the two of them clearly from below.

For the boring daily life, it is very interesting to see such a scene.

But gradually, Xiao Mu found that the man seemed to be unable to swim, and his body was sinking.

"They can't swim anymore."

"I have to save them."

Xiao Mu realized that both of them were in danger, and immediately got out of the water plants.

The sunlight shone through the river, and although it had been relieved a lot, it still felt tingling when it shone on her body.

Enduring the pain, Xiao Mu swam under the bodies of the two of them, dragged one of them by the back with one hand, and swam to the river.

In this way, she successfully rescued the two of them to the river.

Then she hurried back to the bottom of the river, out of the sun's rays.

Not long after, she heard many people gathered around the river, it was very lively.

Those two should be saved.

Xiao Mu laughed happily, and a small fish swam by beside her. Xiao Mu was holding it, dangling around, as if dancing.

At this moment, Xiao Mu saw a figure suddenly appearing in front of him.

The figure was walking on the bottom of the river, with a faint golden light on his body, as if the golden light was protecting him.

Xiao Mu immediately looked over curiously.

Not long after, the figure walked in front of her.

"What's your name?" Lin Fei squatted down and asked her gently.

Xiao Mu squatted in the water plants and hid, looking up at Lin Fei.

This figure was gentle, majestic, and full of beauty. She was a little scared in her heart, and couldn't help but want to get close.

If kindness is like fire and malice is like ice, the figure in front of him is like a blazing furnace, making Xiao Mu's cold body feel warm.

Xiao Mu replied softly: "My name is Xiao Mu."

Then, she asked again: "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Are you also a water ghost living at the bottom of the river?"

Hearing this, Lin Fei immediately laughed.He saw goodness and virtue in Xiao Mu's soul, and Xiao Mu was a kind ghost with merit.

This kind of ghost is extremely rare.

After her death, she was not swallowed by negative emotions and turned into a puppet of desire. Instead, she maintained her own consciousness with a kind heart.

"I'm not a water ghost, I'm a city god." Lin Fei replied gently.

"City God? What is that?"

"A kind of official position, with the ability to take you out of here."

"Take me out of here?" Xiao Mu's eyes lit up with joy, and then his face sank again, "Stop lying to children, I don't know how long I'll be here, and I can't leave this river at all."

Lin Fei laughed again.

He reached out and directly inserted his hand into the mud at the bottom of the river.

Then, under the silt at the bottom of the river, he picked up a human skull.

The skull is covered with black water plants, and these water plants have a faint Yin energy permeating the air.

Energy radiated from Lin Fei's body, and a golden halo flashed on the water plants, and all the black water plants turned into green smoke and dispersed.

Xiao Mu looked at the skull in Lin Fei's hand with some doubts. She moved her head closer, widened her eyes, and asked curiously:
"what is this?"

Lin Fei clicked his lips and replied, "The bones of the fat-headed fish."

Xiao Mu complained: "This bone is so ugly!"

"It's so ugly." Lin Fei laughed and threw the skull to the bottom of the river. Then, he stretched out his hand and said softly, "This place is not suitable for you. I'll take you to another place."

"There is no sun there, and there are many people like you."

Xiao Mu looked at Lin Fei with a cautious look on his face.

She hesitated, then made up her mind, and said:

"Wait a minute, I'm going to say goodbye to my friend."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Mu quickly swam aside, picked up a white scallop, and said softly to it:
"Xiaobai, I'm leaving. That man is so strange. I don't even know his name, but I think I should go with him."

"I may not come back, bye."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Mu put the scallop back into the distance, and then swam over to hold Lin Fei's hand.

The gate of the underworld has been opened, and Lin Fei leads her forward.

"Where are you taking me? Brother Chenghuang?"

Xiao Mu turned to look at him and asked.

Lin Fei's expression moved slightly, and he replied softly: "Your home."
