"What's so strange about that?"

Qingluo asked with a blank face: "There are no surprises in the wild realms, and the white river water should also exist, and besides, this river water doesn't seem to be too deep, I don't think there should be any danger!"

With that, Qingluo smiled lightly at Twilight, broke free of Twilight's arm, and walked slowly towards the river.

After Fang Cai's scrutiny, Bai Dusk had already used his divine sense to probe the bottom of the river, and indeed he didn't find anything unusual, so he didn't stop Qingluo at the moment.

However, for safety reasons, he still followed closely behind Qingluo in case anything happened.

After getting along for a while, Bai Dui already had a general understanding of Qingluo, and at the same time, she also knew that she didn't have any scheming and experience in walking in the wilderness, so she had to protect her everywhere.

After Qingluo walked slowly to the river, she raised her eyes to look at the river in front of her, and saw that the white river water was shining a little in the sun, which was very beautiful.

So he happily squatted down and stretched out his hand to pick up some river water and prepare it to eat.

Wait a minute......

An old, slightly hoarse voice came from the woods on the left side of the creek.

The sound is not very loud, especially under the impact of the river, it is obviously a little small.

But despite this, Twilight and Qingluo, who have strong hearings, still listen to it for real.

Originally, Qingluo was already preparing to drink water at this time, but after hearing the old man's sudden voice, she hurriedly poured the river water in her hand back into the river.

Then he turned sideways and looked up curiously.

In the woods on the left, an old man in a cyan robe walked out slowly.

He looks wonderful and looks like he is sixty or seventy years old, he looks very thin, his white hair is also a little messy, and his mental state does not seem to be particularly good.

Especially in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, there seems to be a trace of deep sorrow that cannot be dissolved, which at first glance gives people a feeling of being preoccupied.

Out of respect for the old man, Qingluo stood up from the river and asked curiously, "Uncle, may I ask if you were talking just now?"

"Yes!"

The old man bowed his head slightly, walked from the woods to the edge of the river with difficulty, and after standing firm, he asked indifferently: "Two descendants, you are not from Baihe Town, right?"

"It's not. ”

Twilight politely replied, "We came from the side of Wing Mountain, and we were looking for a friend, so we passed through the Precious Treasure Land. ”

"Dare to ask the old man, what kind of place is this?"

"And why is the river in front of you water-colored?"

Hey.

The old man smiled at him and replied word by word: "This is Baihe Town, and it is also a relatively famous town on the east side of Yishan Mountain. ”

"The name of this river is called the White Water River, at least why the water is white, there are many theories. ”

"The most widespread theory is that there is a white fish spirit in the river, and he often spits out white foam in his mouth, and over the years the river turns white!"

Hey......

When Qingluo heard that the river water was spit out from the mouth of the white fish spirit, she was so frightened that she hurriedly took a few steps back from the river, and a disgusting feeling appeared on her face.

The old man couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this, but he didn't say anything.

And Bai Du asked curiously, "Uncle, the legend of the white fish essence should be unfounded, right?"

"Such a big river, and it keeps flowing eastward, even if there is more foam in the mouth of the white fish spirit, it is impossible to dye the river white, right?"

"So I think there must be another reason!"

"That's right. ”

The old man glanced at Bai Du appreciatively, and said slowly, "I don't know what the real reason is. ”

"Anyway, from the time I was born until now, the river has been white for so many years. ”

"And according to my ancestors, in their time, it was already a white river. ”

"I see. ”

Bai Du nodded as if she didn't understand, and then asked puzzledly: "When Qingluo wanted to drink water just now, why did my husband stop her?"

"Is there something wrong with this water?"

"Definitely. ”

The old man nodded, and muttered solemnly: "Women can't drink the water of this Baishui River." ”

"If a woman drinks the water here, there is a high chance that the fetus will be dark. ”

"Especially women who are not married, they can't drink the water here, otherwise they won't know when they will conceive a child. ”

Yes!

Qingluo was shocked when she heard this, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly wiped her hand that was stained with river water.

His mouth was a little scared and asked: "Uncle, how can this river water be so magical, can you conceive a child after drinking it?"

Well.

The old man nodded, and said nothing more.

After the three of them were silent for a while, Bai Du suddenly noticed the sadness between the old man's eyebrows, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Uncle, you should also be a resident of the Baishui River in front, right?"

"That's right. ”

"I am indeed a resident of the Whitewater River. ”

The old man nodded calmly yes, and then changed his words, looked at Qingluo and reminded: "Little girl, I see that you look like a Peugeot, you should still be a yellow flower girl in the boudoir, right?"

"If you don't have anything important, please don't go to Baihe Town, or you'll be in danger!"

"What danger?"

Qingluo's rhetorical question with great interest, when she heard that it was dangerous, aroused Qingluo's curiosity.

Bai Du asked even more curiously, "Uncle, if I'm not mistaken, something strange should have happened in your family recently, right?"

"I see that the corners of your eyebrows and eyes are full of sorrow, I'm afraid something happened at home?"

Alas......

Hearing this, the old man sighed helplessly and muttered, "That's right, a lot of strange things have happened in our town recently. ”

"There are a series of young girls missing in the town, and more than twenty people have disappeared so far. ”

"So serious?"

Twilight was shocked when she heard this, she couldn't imagine that there was such a strange thing in this town.

Be a rational analysis: "Could it be that some bad guy has been arrested?"

"I don't know. ”

The old man shook his head in confusion and said, "Although there have been more than 20 cases of disappearance, there is no clue. ”

"And until now, I haven't even seen the shadow of the real murderer. ”

"My daughter, Azhu, is also one of the women who disappeared......"

"Your daughter is missing too?"

Bai Du couldn't help but glance at Qingluo, and both of them shook their heads helplessly, obviously sympathetic to the old man's plight.

Yes.

The old man replied with sadness: "Ah Zhu is a very sensible child, she is only sixteen years old, she often helps me with farm work, and she is very well-behaved.

But just a few nights ago, Ah Zhu suddenly disappeared without a trace.

I came out today to find her traces!
