The touch of the fingertips that just scratched the skin seemed to be just an illusion.

The drowning ghost's eyes suddenly stopped.

There was a little doubt.

......

"But if someone else is injured."

Xiao Xiao looked at the drowning ghost, "Humans are very fragile creatures."

"So if you want to play with them, be gentler."

"Otherwise they will be scared away by you."

......

The drowning ghost shook his head, and his plain tone inexplicably revealed a little aggrieved, "Ignore me."

"Can run."

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and he was powerless to do anything about it, "There is no way."

"Neither they can see you or hear your voice."

"Sorry, I took back what I said just now."

Even if you are gentle, there is no way for the children to play with it.

...

Maybe the monster did the same at the beginning, but later... gradually became rough.

"I'll play with you."

The drowning ghost's eyes suddenly lit up, "Play with me, play with me..."

But playing with the kids-

Although he didn't know how old the monster was, judging from the other party's words and deeds, he felt that the monster should be not very old.

He is not very good at it.

He didn't need to do anything more when drowning the ghost. It seemed that just swimming around the water with it would make the monster feel a pleasant aura.

A little smile appeared in Xiao Xiao's eyes.

It's really a monster that has to be coaxed.

...

However, Xiao Xiao was having fun with the drowning ghost in the water, but the people above him became more and more worried.

“It’s been a long time!”

Xiaolu reached out to grab Pei You's clothes, her fingertips turned white, "Why haven't Master Xiao come up yet?"

"yes."

Pei You held his friend's hand, and his hands were as cold as the same. "Who can hold his breath under the water for so long?"

"Hey, it's only five minutes."

"You know that someone can hold his breath under the water for more than twenty minutes."

Pei Liang looked at the watch on his wrist and felt helpless, but then his eyebrows, which had not been released, gathered a little more and more, "But ordinary people can hold their breath for about a minute."

He looked at Xiaolu, "Xiaolu, how is Master Xiao's watery nature?"

"have no idea."

Xiaolu shook her head, and she reached out to grab Pei You, "Don't worry about Master Xiao's previous words, let's go and take a look."

"quick!"

"Um."

Pei You nodded and the two of them ran quickly to the river.

"wait-"

Before Pei Liang finished speaking, he could only see the backs of two girls.

He shook his head and chased after him.

...

“Huh?!”

The female voice's scream made Pei Liang ask anxiously: "What's wrong?"

"There is no Master Xiao in the river?!"

Pei You looked dull.

Before a drowning accident occurred, the children living near this river always came to the river to play in the water and swim.

The river water is naturally quite clean and clear.

The river water, which is not very deep, can almost make people see the bottom of the river at a glance when the weather is good.

And now the weather is sunny and the sun is shining, and the river water is sparkling, they can clearly see the stones lying at the bottom of the river.

However, there is no Master Xiao.

......

"What's going on?"

The deer squatted down and reached into the water to grop.

"Deer."

Pei You was so scared that he grabbed Xiaolu's hand, "Don't put his hand into the water, you will be pulled down!"

"Why?"

The deer tilted her head and looked stunned, "I just want to see if Master Xiao is in the river?"

“Isn’t this obvious absence?!”

Pei You rolled her eyes angrily.

"But……"

Xiaolu turned her head and looked at the river again, "Where has Master Xiao been?"

"......yes."

Pei You also squatted down, looking confused.

There has never been such an incident in this river before that people disappeared out of thin air, and the children almost drowned and were rescued in the end.

It can be said that there is no danger.

So, this river still exists.

Otherwise, I am afraid that the people in the village will fill the river.

...

"I don't think you have to worry too much."

Pei Liang squatted beside the two girls.

"elder brother?"

Pei You didn't understand what his brother meant.

How can you not worry? Master Xiao, a living person, disappeared out of thin air!

"Let's call the police."

As he said that, Xiaolu was about to take out her cell phone.

“Yes.”

Pei You agreed very much, "Our address here is..."

"Wait a moment."

Pei Liang shouted in a deep voice, making both girls look at him, and there was some confusion and panic on his face.

"Feel sorry."

Pei Liang calmed down and softened his voice a little, "But, I think maybe all this was just as Master Xiao expected."

"Look, Master Xiao said at the beginning that no matter what happened, he told us not to go over."

"Obviously he knows what will happen next that will make us run over."

Xiaolu and Pei You looked at each other in a daze, and looked at Pei Liang in a daze, with a hint of thought on their faces.

"and-"
