Liu Lang was shocked, why did he pick out his eyeballs when they met for the first time?

This thing is useless, why should it be used as a gift?

However, when Liu Lang's gaze moved to the old man's hand, his hanging heart was also put down.

I was dizzy, and it turned out to be a prosthetic, plastic one.

However, Liu Lang still doesn't understand, even if it's a fake eye, there's no need to pick it out to scare people, right?

"Uncle, you, you are ......"

The old man let out a long sigh and said, "Young man, you don't know, they all say that the heart of defense is indispensable, I was called Chen One-eyed when I was a child, do you know why?" ”

Liu Langxin said: How do I know?

But looking at the eyes in the old man's hands, Liu Lang seemed to understand what the old man meant.

The old man was afraid that Liu Lang would not believe what he said, so he swore an oath by picking his eyes.

Seeing that Liu Lang didn't say anything, the old man seemed to have guessed Liu Lang's thoughts, and said unhurriedly: "Actually, when I was born, I did have both eyes. But when I became sensible, I always saw something strange, which frightened not only my family, but even the people in the village. ”

Liu Lang didn't take the old man's words to heart, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but sit up straight, pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

The old man held his fake eyeballs in his hand and said unabashedly: "Young man, since you came to our Linghetun today, I naturally won't hide some things from you, I just hope you can save our life." ”

The more Liu Lang listened, the more mysterious he became, and he couldn't help asking, "What is in the river?" ”

The old man waved his hand and said, "Young man, I can feel that you are not ordinary, so I don't plan to hide anything from you today, but some things cannot be said in a few words." ”

"It's okay, uncle, if you have something to say, just say it."

When Liu Lang used the ghost king's trick to repel the black smoke by the river, he already knew that there was something evil hidden inside.

Since Liu Lang learned Taoism and knew how to catch ghosts, once he encountered this kind of thing, Liu Lang would definitely not let it go.

It's not that Liu Lang has a sense of justice, it's just that in Liu Lang's opinion, this can not only save people, but also improve his cultivation and let himself have a lot of knowledge, why not do it?

Although many times he was in danger, and even died nine times, Liu Lang deeply realized that the rapid growth of his cultivation was inseparable from these.

Looking at the old man's sincere appearance, Liu Lang naturally had no reason to refuse.

However, Liu Lang always felt that there was a connection between these things he encountered.

Liu Lang didn't know what the specific connection was, but the more strange things he encountered, the stronger Liu Lang's feeling became, as if there was an invisible thread that had been holding him.

Damn, since I can't figure it out, I just have to do it.

It is said that when you meet a Buddha and worship a Buddha, you meet a demon and kill a demon, who calls yourself to meet it?

When Liu Lang thought about it, many things became much calmer.

When the old man who claimed to be Chen One-eyed heard Liu Lang's words, the expression on his face couldn't help but ease, and his two hands trembled slightly.

"Young man, when you enter the village, you should see what the name of our tunzi is, right?"

Liu Lang nodded, but was a little puzzled: "Linghetun? ”

"Yes, it's called Linghetun, and this name is related to the river in the east of the village."

When Liu Lang heard this, he couldn't help but be interested: "Uncle, if you have anything to say, just say it, if I can help, I will naturally do my best." ”

This time the old man did not show any expression, but took a deep breath and stared straight ahead.

Whether the old man can see things or not, Liu Lang is not sure, but looking at the hollow socket of the old man's left eye, Liu Lang faintly feels that things seem to be related to this eye.

Sure enough, the old man organized his language a little and said slowly: "For as long as I can remember, I have seen things that are different from others, and I can even see many dead people and hear them talking. ”

"At that time, I was still young, and I didn't know how to be afraid, but as I grew older, I knew that this was not normal, and I was even regarded as a madman and a psychopath by the villagers."

The old man said that at that time, he had no choice, and even his parents could not resist the pressure of gossip, and finally drove himself out.

The old man was only twelve years old.

From then on, the old man gave himself a name, which was called One-Eyed.

At that time, he only had one idea, there are good and evil in this world, but he only saw the evil side, but he could not see the good side, and he would rather be blind in one eye.

But what he didn't expect was that later he really became one-eyed, a real one-eyed.

Of course, a twelve-year-old child has no survival skills other than begging.

I don't know how long I wandered, but the old man came to Linghetun.

At that time, although Linghetun was located in a remote area, because there was a river that would not dry up for many years, the people in Linghetun did not worry about eating and drinking, and even became rich every year.

However, one day, a child from Tunli went down to the river to bathe, and just jumped into the river, but was swallowed alive.

At that time, there were many people playing by the river, and after seeing this scene, they were all in a hurry, and they didn't even think much about it, and jumped directly into the river.

As a result, five or six people on the bank were all swept into the river, and even the corpses were not found.

The people in the village were dumbfounded, thinking that they had angered the river god, and it was a sacrifice and an offering, but it had no effect.

Strange to say, as long as the people in the village don't jump into the river, nothing happens.

Gradually, the people of the village developed a sense of awe for the river, and they usually used a long rope to tie a bucket to catch water for water.

In the long run, the villagers discovered a problem, as long as the villagers did not enter the river, and every year after drowning a person, they would be fine.

If no one drowns in a given year, as soon as you get close to the river, a big wave will sweep you in.

Because of this, the people in the village are more convinced that there is a river god in the river.

Because the one-eyed old man was homeless and Linghetun was located in a remote area, he would not be looked down upon by others, so he lived in the tunzi.

This is decades.

And the river eats people in the third year of the one-eyed old man's life.

That year, the one-eyed old man was just sixteen years old.

Because of homelessness, it is usually just the villagers who receive some food.

The one-eyed old man usually sleeps in the land temple at the head of the village, and what he can't eat should be offered to the land lord.

One night, however, the one-eyed old man slept until midnight when he suddenly heard the sound of chains rattling.

The one-eyed old man was a little strange, so he opened his eyes and looked for the source of the sound.

The sound came from the river.

At first, nothing was unusual, but after a while, the river suddenly tumbled, as if something was stirring inside.

Soon, two figures, one black and one white, came out of the river and floated towards the one-eyed old man.
