Lan Yi didn't expect that with such great strength, Chu Batian died unexpectedly. They were all panicked at that time, and the two of them sneaked back to find Lu Yuanqing to find a solution.

"I have no choice but to bring him back first."

One eye wants to bully his wife, damn it, but he is a scholar, and he always thinks that it should be solved by suing the officials instead of killing people.

"It's useless to say more, if it wasn't for Lan Yi to save me, who would have expected what would happen."

Zhang Ruyi touched her chest, her heart was pounding, she wasn't sure if there were any witnesses along the way.

"No one went in just now."

After Xiao Lingchuan disposed of the corpse, he went to the toilet to clean up the aftermath. The blood on the ground was washed away without leaving any traces.

The bloodstain was not far from the door. If someone had entered the toilet, the footprints should have destroyed the traces on it. However, it was not ruled out that someone saw the bloodstain.

At present, the official ship is still quiet and there is no noise. During the period, some people may have been there. It is better to have one thing less than one more thing, and turn a blind eye to it.

After discussing with several people, they acted according to circumstances, stopped in silence, and tried to behave calmly and naturally.

The sky was bright, and suddenly it rained heavily.

The group went to the kitchen to buy noodles, and called Ji Qiu to eat together in Li Haitang's cabin.

"I went to the toilet at night and saw blood."

After the meal, Ji Qiu started talking, and just after he finished speaking, Lan Yi threw away the bowl and chopsticks in shock, and only woke up when the porcelain bowl fell to the ground and there was the sound of broken porcelain.

"Chu Batian is dead."

Xiao Lingchuan spoke very plainly, as if he was talking about noodles with fried sauce for breakfast.

Ji Qiu raised his eyebrows. He had seen the scene last night. He wanted to kill the person and throw them into the river. Unexpectedly, the blue clothes were quicker.

A petite little girl with a childish face actually made a ruthless attack, Ji Qiu looked at her with admiration.

He originally planned to kill and dismember the corpse, which was not enough to make up for the torment he had suffered in his heart for many years.

Let Chu Batian's body and head be in a different place, so that he can't be reincarnated, and it's best if his ghost stays alive, and he can't be reborn forever!

"You...you saw it all?"

Lan Yi blinked, stared at Ji Qiu, saw his serious face, and then cried, "You can't report on me, can you?"

"Report?"

No matter what, when a person dies, the matter that has been pressed in his heart for many years is resolved. Although it is not a matter of regret, it will not change the result.

Ji Qiu smiled gently, "I should thank you."

This girl thought that killing people was that simple? If it wasn't for his secret help and Xiao Lingchuan's recovery, the officials would have been interrogated long ago.

Not to mention anything else, while the corpse was being thrown in the toilet, two people wanted to go to the toilet, but Ji Qiu managed to lure them away.

"What method are you thinking of, will you expose yourself?"

Knowing that she was safe and sound, Lan Yi began to worry about Ji Qiu again, it was her first time killing someone and she was inexperienced, so she will never be so careless in the future.

Li Haitang: ...do you still want to have a future?

"of course not."

Ji Qiu put down the bowl and chopsticks, looking at the sky speechlessly, how stupid is he?

In order to distract people, he took out the silver from his purse and put it on the ground. The other party picked up the silver money, fearing that the owner would find out and want to go back. In the blink of an eye, no one was there.

A group of people waited for a whole day, the weather was calm, Chu Batian disappeared, and there was no splash. Ji Qiu inquired from the side, Chu Batian and those gangsters also met on the boat, and they were not familiar with each other, so no one paid attention to where he was.

After waiting and waiting, a shocking news came, that there was a water monster in the river.

Passengers on the first floor were strolling on the deck, and saw an ugly monster appearing in the river, quickly following the ship.

Those with good deeds threw down a piece of bacon they brought, and saw the water monster opened its mouth wide and swallowed the bacon in one gulp.

The rainy day was too humid, Li Haitang didn't go out of the cabin, and she couldn't see the monster with her own eyes. She was dubious. Anyway, the people of Daqi like to spread rumors and tell the truth, so people can't help but make up nonsense.

The next morning, the rain continued unabated, and the sky was shrouded in dark clouds, so dark that there was no light.

Hearing that there were monsters under the water, the passengers didn't sleep well all night, listlessly, most of them casually padded some food and nestled on the seats to catch up on sleep.

It was rare for Li Haitang to sleep late. She was washing her face with warm water when she heard chaos on the deck, and someone shouted, "Water monster, the water monster is out!"

The screams sounded one after another, especially the woman's sharp voice, which was like scratching the glass with her fingernails, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Miss, I bought the buns and baked them in a small stove. You should eat them while they are hot for breakfast."

Xiao Lingchuan cooked a pot of porridge with the pearl rice he brought, and roasted two meat buns. He served the porridge and vegetables on the small table, set the dishes and chopsticks, and was indifferent to the shouts from outside the cabin.

"good."

Curiosity killed the cat, Li Haitang simply didn't think about it, and sat on the edge of the couch, slowly enjoying the breakfast carefully prepared by her husband.

The thick porridge was steaming, the aroma of rice wafted in the air, and the stomach was warm.

Yesterday was just a rumor, but the shouts this morning attracted more boat passengers, and almost everyone saw the water monster. I heard that a few-year-old child was eaten by the water monster.

Water monsters cannibalize people, making people creepy.

"My lady, I'll go out and have a look."

Xiao Lingchuan glanced at his wife, and told her to close the door and not to come out when she heard any noise.

Li Haitang nodded. Last night, for some reason, I felt sick to my stomach. The savage husband used his big hands to warm him up all night, and he finally recovered in the morning.

After Xiao Lingchuan strode out the door, he carefully closed the cabin door. Just after taking two steps, he bumped into Lu Yuanqing, who was pale and pretended to be calm.

"Xiao... Brother Xiao..."

It took Lu Yuanqing a while to find his own voice, "There is a water monster, and the water monster ate a child!"

He pointed to the river and added, "Many boat passengers have seen it." .

The food prepared before boarding the boat was not complete. After seeing the blood, Zhang Ruyi felt sick when she saw the meat.

The same was true for Lu Yuanqing. He had no choice but to go to the kitchen to see if he could buy some steamed buns with vegetarian fillings. As soon as he got to the deck, he heard someone shouting that the water monster in the river was eating people, so let him watch it.

"The whole body of that water monster is about the size of a toad's skin. Its eyes are the size of copper bells. It has a big bloody mouth with sharp teeth. It bit off Xiaowa's leg in one bite. The river is full of blood..."

Beside, an old woman took the initiative to answer the call, and couldn't help crying. The man peed his pants in fright when he saw this cruel scene, not to mention that she was a woman, and his legs and feet became weak immediately, and he knelt down on the deck.

The little baby's mother fainted immediately, if someone hadn't had quick eyesight and quick hands, stepped forward and dragged the person from the railing to the center of the deck, maybe it would have become a meal for the water monster.

On a rainy day, the deck is slippery. Xiaowa is a boy of six or seven years old. When he is restless, his mother goes to line up to buy steamed buns. One of them misses. Xiaowa jumps over the railing, descends the steps, and sits on the edge. A pair of little feet buried in the river to play with water. At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and the water monster suddenly raised its head from the river, opened its mouth, and went straight towards Xiaowa. The people around wanted to stop it, but it was too late, and they watched Xiaowa being swallowed by the water monster. into the stomach.
