Chapter 20
"That frightened them, besides, not one family has such footprints, several have, and they went to the fortune teller next door, and they gave them an idea to send their children out as soon as possible. The family will not be harmed."

What the old grandma said was serious, but I was very interested in the footprints, "Grandma, how could they see the footprints?"

"Rice was sprinkled around the coffin, and the footprints are still red!" What the old lady said made me fall into doubts.

Why are the footprints red?Are the children going back or the evil spirits who killed them?What does it have to do with the black figure I just saw?
A bunch of questions filled my mind, it was very late now, the old grandma gave us a room and left, I lived in one room with Xiaotong, and the others lived in one room, there was no way, who told me to be Where are the girls?

Fortunately, the bed was big, and Xiao Tong and I slept on the other end. He looked much better than before, at least he didn't feel like he was seriously ill.

I tucked him in the quilt and lay on the other side. There was no light, and a little moonlight came in from the window, but he was very peaceful.

I woke up again because my feet were cold, that guy Xiaotong lifted the quilt, I thought in a daze, I swiped my feet on the bed, and Xiaotong disappeared!
Now all my drowsiness disappeared, the quilt was still lifted, Xiaotong put on her shoes and left, and the door was also open. It is already early morning, the sky is slightly bright, but I still need to use a flashlight.

I turned on the light, and a series of footprints on the ground caught my attention. From the bedside to the door, there were footprints that the old lady said, but these footprints were revealed because they were wet.

The ground of the grandmother's house is compacted with soil, so the place with water is clearer.

The owner of these footprints stood in front of the bed and observed for a long time. Only the pair of footprints beside the bed were the deepest. I couldn’t help but feel creepy. Just imagine, a ghost standing in front of your bed staring at you with malicious intentions, isn’t it extraordinarily strange? Thriller?
I put on my backpack and walked out. I still couldn't feel it in the room, but as soon as I went out, I could smell the fishy smell of water. Xiaotong must have been taken to the river by him!

The compass showed me the direction, and I ran over quickly. Although Xiaotong is usually very vicious, he is still very good to me. I don't want anything to happen to him!

Because I ran in a hurry, I stumbled a few times along the way, worried about Xiaotong's comfort, and even stood up before I wiped some wounds. When I reached the river, I saw a figure, it was Xiaotong!
He was standing by the river with his head down, only I saw the hands on his feet, it was this ghost who brought Xiaotong here, I was so angry, I hit a yellow talisman, the ghost was not there His head emerged from the water, but he let go of the hand that was holding Xiaotong's feet.

Before I had time to be happy, that water ghost emerged from the water, with a face that was devoured by fish beyond recognition, I could still see that he was smiling at me, but the smile was full of malice!

What does he want to do?
In the next second, I knew his intentions. The water ghost hugged Xiaotong and brought him into the water. I ran over desperately but only received the splash from Xiaotong entering the water.

No!Not caring so much, I also jumped into the water, I can't let Xiaotong die like this!He is my younger brother, he hasn't grown up yet, how could he die like this?
Fortunately, I learned to swim at school before. In the rushing river, I searched for Xiaotong everywhere. Where was he taken by the water ghost?

After changing my breath twice, I found Xiaotong in a place overgrown with water and grass. He was already unconscious, with only a weak pulse. I had to take him there, or he would really die!
"Giggle..." The laughter I heard in the water was especially penetrating, and I couldn't care less, I pushed Xiaotong ashore, I was already out of strength, and suddenly there was a huge pulling force under me, the water ghost chased after me up!
I was brought into the water, a dead body hugged me from behind, I could even see the gap in his arm that was eaten by fish... Consciousness gradually blurred... Am I going to die here like this? ...

"A mere water ghost, dare to be so presumptuous?" A familiar voice echoed in my ear, is it Jun Siyan?

I barely opened my eyes, and saw a figure with fluttering white hair, it really was him...

When I woke up again, I was already back on the bed. I choked when I was about to speak, and could only cough. Shu San and the others ran over quickly, and the old grandma touched my forehead and said with a sigh of relief, "The girl is fine, she doesn't have a fever."

"Why am I here? Where's Xiaotong? Is he okay?" A series of questions made me cough again, but I was still worried that I didn't get an accurate answer.

"Little Tong is fine, he's in another room! When I got up to pee this morning, I found your door was open, and I saw footprints on the ground. I knew something must have happened to you. I took someone to the riverside At that time, both of you were lying on the ground wet, but luckily nothing serious happened, it’s really lucky.” Shu San was also a little scared when talking about the previous events.

He may not have imagined that even I would be in such a mess, but as long as Xiaotong is fine, it's fine.

I just don't know if Jun Siyan got rid of that water ghost, I still have something to ask him.

Seeing that I was not in a good mood, Shu San and the others explained the ins and outs of the matter and did not stay any longer, they all went out one by one.

I was the only one in the room, and Jun Siyan came out of my eyes. I had many things to ask him, but seeing his appearance, I didn't know where to start.

"This time...thank you." There was nothing to say, I could only thank him dryly once more, counting, he saved me twice.

Sometimes I wonder to myself, what kind of luck did I have for him to follow me? Although I am good-looking, Jun Siyan's appearance has already made all the girls kneel at his feet and sing conquest.

To say that he likes me is really nonsense, but I can't think of any other reason why he treats me so well. I'm an orphan and I don't have anything on me. What can he covet?
"You're welcome, it's just a matter of little effort... Do you have a fever? Your face is so red?" Jun Siyan never thought that I was thinking about what I had just now, and thought I had a fever again. with concern.

"It's okay, I'm just a little hot. By the way, have you dealt with that water ghost?" I couldn't continue this topic, so I quickly diverted his attention. I just wanted to ask about the situation of that water ghost, why did it keep up with him? What about us?

"No... she is also a poor person." Jun Siyan frowned rarely, he seemed to remember something, and his usually calm face changed.

"Poor man? You mean that the water ghost died unjustly?" I was a little surprised. Although I knew that Jun Siyan was very powerful, I was shocked that he could still tell whether the ghost died unjustly. .

"Can't you see? The resentment on her body is so heavy, she must not have died naturally. She had a very strong belief when she died, otherwise she would not be able to support her now." Jun Siyan said what he saw, I was at a loss. At first I thought it was awesome that my eyes could see things that ordinary people couldn't see, but here came a more awesome one, and I felt a little sad.

I will never be able to say that I am the best in the future, although I have never said that.

Jun Siyan sat with me for a while, and my top-heavy feeling got better. I always felt that there was something important that required me to rush to the river, and my whole heart felt like being scratched by a cat's paw.

He looked at me and knew that something was wrong with me, but he didn't ask anything, which made me think highly of Jun Siyan again.

He is a very principled person. He never inquires about other people's private affairs, and he respects others enough. Although I can do this sometimes, Jun Siyan has been like this since the beginning and when he was with me.

Sometimes I also wonder what kind of personality Jun Siyan is like. He is like a monk practicing alone in the world of mortals, with a taste of being lonely and seeking defeat.

But sometimes I feel that he is no different from us, except that he is not very talkative, he is like a normal person, with his own thoughts and personality.

"What are you thinking so obsessed with?" I didn't hear what Jun Siyan said to me clearly, so I could only shake my head in embarrassment. It seems that my cultivation is not enough, otherwise, how could I repeat it again and again? It's a pity, a pity, to be tempted by beauty.

I looked at Jun Siyan's perfect handsome face, and felt infinite emotion in my heart. It would be great if this face was on my face, not to mention all ages, at least it would make me feel the taste of being sought after by thousands of people .

After thinking wildly for a while, I felt that my health was much better, and I was still worried about Xiao Tong, so I went to see it by myself and felt relieved.

When he arrived at his room, Xiao Tong had already woken up, lying on the bed and looking up, wondering what he was thinking.

"Xiaotong? Is there any other discomfort?" Seeing his pale face, I really feel distressed.

Normally, Master is my only relative, and Xiaotong was brought back by Master, and I also treat him as my own younger brother.

Sometimes Xiaotong would quarrel with me or quarrel with me, but more often the two of us were getting to know each other. Although we didn't express our relationship, it was already very deep.

Seeing Xiaotong become like this, I blame myself and feel guilty. I didn't take good care of him. He usually behaves very well, but he is still a child no matter what. I blame me for being too negligent.

His body was not very good, but thinking about me, his eyes turned red.

"I'm not dead yet, why are you crying, it's too bad luck." Xiaotong's voice was also a little hoarse, but she still wiped my tears.
