As a result of this commotion, most people in the village knew that the treasure given to the old village chief by the Li people had been stolen.

But there is no other village within a hundred miles of this aquatic village. Who could the thief be? It must be someone from the village!

This is something everyone understands.

Next, the village chief's sons each led people to search in the village. Because the Ministry of Attack has said that the medicinal effect of this water Ganoderma is so strong that ordinary people cannot bear it, so it must be taken in batches.

So the thief who stole the water ganoderma must have eaten the water ganoderma, but whether he can find it... To be honest, even the village chief's sons are not confident.

This aquatic village is so big, the thief only needs to hide the water ganoderma in a secluded place, and no one can find it. But in order to reassure their old father, they had to bite the bullet and search the village.

Such a search is actually very disturbing to the people. Fortunately, the old village chief has a high prestige and the villagers are willing to cooperate with the search. Although the sons led the search, the folks in their hometown were not too domineering, so the search was almost a formality.

When the girl named Xiao Ai went out with the wooden basin, she saw this scene - the son of the village had just searched Aunt Wang's house next door and was saying goodbye to Aunt Wang with a smile.

Seeing Xiao Ai coming out with a wooden basin, everyone hurriedly smiled and said hello, "Xiao Ai, are you going out to wash clothes?"

"Well," the little girl nodded, glanced at everyone, and said, "Uncle Liu, you should also go to my house and have a look. Maybe the thief has hidden something in my house."

Several adults quickly waved their hands and refused, "No, no, we can just go to the next one."

Search this little girl’s home? I'm afraid I'm tired of living. Who else in the aquatic village dares to offend this little girl now?

But Xiao Ai insisted, "You still have to search, and you have to search carefully. It's impossible that all the houses in the village have been searched, but only my uncle's house has not been searched... Please uncles."

The little girl asked very seriously, making everyone look at each other. But after Xiao Ai said this, they had no choice but to nod.

"Okay, okay, we'll check it out right now. Don't worry, Xiao Ai, it's just a formality. If you want to do laundry, go ahead and leave the rest to us."

"Yeah," the little girl nodded and left without stopping, holding the wooden basin.

As for whether this group of people could find water ganoderma at home, she didn't hold out hope. In other words, everyone knows that this water Ganoderma lucidum will probably never be found.

It’s just that all the houses in the village have been searched. If no one searches his own house, there will be rumors in the future. That's why the little girl insisted on letting the adults search it.

Seeing several adults entering the house, the little girl left with the wooden basin and walked toward the river outside the village.

The weather today is very good, suitable for washing clothes. When Xiao Ai arrived at the river, there were already many women washing and chatting by the river, and the laughter of rural women could be heard in the distance.

However, Xiao Ai did not walk towards them. Instead, he carried the wooden basin to a relatively remote river bend and silently put down the wooden basin.

She doesn't like the excitement, and she is the only one in the neighborhood. I went back after washing my clothes, not wanting to join everyone else's excitement.

However, after putting down the tub, the girl rummaged through the clothes in the tub and was stunned.

Don’t have a pounding pestle?

She was a little surprised and rummaged through it again to confirm that there were indeed only her dirty clothes in the tub. It seems that I was too busy picking up the dirty clothes when I went out and didn't bring the clothes pestle.

Alas... I have to go back and get it.

The girl sighed silently, put down the tub, turned and walked towards the village. Although it took a long time to go back and forth, she couldn't wash the clothes without a clothes pestle.

You have to hurry up, I have to make medicine for my brother at noon.

With this thought in her mind, the girl couldn't help but walk a lot faster. When she walked through the village and returned to the neighborhood, she saw from a distance the adults walking out of their houses after the house search. It seemed that there was no result.

The girl was not surprised by this and continued walking towards her uncle's house.

Her steps were neither fast nor light. When she walked into the fenced yard, she saw that the door of the wooden tile house was closed. However, the sound insulation of the wooden tile house was very poor. Xiao Ai, who had just walked into the yard, happened to hear his brother's hoarse voice ringing in the house.

"Hmph...a bunch of idiots, still want to get the Water Ganoderma back? For mortals like you, eating it is a waste!"

Hearing this voice, Xiao Ai was stunned for a moment, subconsciously stopped, and even his breathing slowed down a lot.

What sounded in the room was indeed his brother's voice. Although he was much deeper and hoarse, and even his tone of voice was completely different from his cousin, this voice was indeed his younger brother's.

But my brother is talking about water ganoderma? Could it be that he was the one who stole the water ganoderma?

Xiao Ai was slightly shocked when she heard a low cry of pain from her brother in the room.

"Hiss... it hurts... Damn uncle Jie, I won't let you go. Wait until I absorb the medicinal power of this water ganoderma and recover from my injuries, hum!"

In the room, my cousin seemed to be in pain and made low hissing sounds of pain from time to time.

The little girl outside the house turned pale and understood something.

Uncle Jie... isn't this the name of Master Wu Zhu?

After Master Wu Zhu left, everyone thought that the demon was not in the village, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief. But I didn't expect that Mr. Wu Zhu made a mistake? Not only did the demon not leave, but it has been hiding in the village? Just possessing my cousin?

Xiao Ai immediately thought of the illness that his cousin had been struggling with recently. Grandpa Baizu said he was ill, but the medicine Grandpa Baizu gave him couldn't cure it.

And when my cousin started to fall ill, it happened to be the day when Master Wu Zhu came to the village...

Xiao Ai's footsteps retreated slowly. But at this moment, I heard the demon in the room say.

"Ai Laizi, take out the water ganoderma for me... hiss... damn uncle Jie, I will fight you to the death!"

The next thing that sounded was Uncle Xiao Ai's dull voice.

"Yes, Master."

Next, the room was temporarily quiet.

But the little girl outside the house was completely frightened.

Does the uncle know that his younger brother is possessed by a demon? No, uncle's voice is very wrong...

The girl thought of the time when Master Wu Zhu and Master Shan Shen discussed the demon species in front of the mountain temple, and mentioned that the demon species had the ability to confuse the minds of living people and control mortals.

Could it be that the uncle is controlled by a demon?

Realizing this, the girl became even more nervous.

She swallowed, almost holding her breath, and slowly backed away, for fear of alarming the monsters in the room.

I have to find someone for help... No! That thing is a monster, and the villagers can't deal with it at all. And she didn't know if other people in the village were also controlled by demons...

The girl was anxious and thought about it. The only person she could rely on now was the Mountain God... That's right! Go find Lord Mountain God!

As long as the Lord Mountain God knows about the demon species, this monster will not be able to harm anyone!

We must tell Lord Mountain God about the demon species!

After realizing this, the little girl quietly left her house and ran directly to the outside of the village without stopping, intending to go to the mountains to seek help from the mountain god.

However, as soon as she walked out of the village, she bumped into her aunt who was returning from washing clothes with a wooden basin.

The girl stopped running for an instant, her face a little nervous, "Aunt... Aunt... have you finished washing your clothes?"

The aunt, who seemed to be doing everything as usual, nodded and asked, "Where are you going in such a hurry?"

"Uh...I...I went to the river to get something," the little girl immediately made up an excuse, "I just dropped something by the river."

"That's it... then go ahead," the woman said, "I'll go home first and cook sweet potatoes for lunch today. Come back early."

"Okay, aunt, I'm leaving first," the girl tried her best to look calm. After passing by her aunt, she continued running towards the river.

Behind her, the woman looked at her hurried away figure, but frowned, thoughtfully...

Chapter 36 Something big happened

Although Shuisheng Village is located on the outskirts of the Hanyu Mountains, if you want to truly reach the main peak, you still need to walk for an hour or two on the mountain road.

However, the little girl has the Mountain God Token hanging around her neck. Once she enters the Hanyu Mountains, she can run as much as she wants without feeling tired.

But even so, it would take her about an hour to reach the mountain temple.

But after entering Hanyu Mountain, the little girl calmed down and no longer panicked.

The black swirling clouds covering the mountains are like a giant eyeball, looking down at the world indifferently. Living under this swirling cloud, others might feel intimidated, but the little girl felt full of security.

As long as you enter the scope of this swirling cloud and enter the mountain, it will be the territory of the mountain god, and you won't... won't...

The running little girl gradually stopped. His face turned pale again.

Because there was a six-year-old child sitting quietly on the mountain road not far in front of her. The child looked at her, and the sneer on his face was completely unlike the expression that a child of this age should have.

"Sister Ai, where are you going? You're running in such a hurry... Aren't you going to the river to find your lost things? Why are you running into the mountains?"

The little boy said with a sneer, and behind him stood two figures, who were Xiao Ai's uncle and aunt.

It's just that these two relatives who were once familiar with each other now have dull eyes and dull expressions, and they are obviously controlled by demons.

Xiao Ai subconsciously took a step back with a nervous expression.

Here, we have entered the scope of Hanyu Mountain and are surrounded by jungles. Even if she screamed loudly, no one would hear her and come to save her.

But Xiao Ai knows that the beasts in this mountain all obey the orders of the Mountain God. If he...

"save……"

The girl subconsciously opened her mouth to call for help, but the moment she opened her mouth, her consciousness went blank.

I don't know how long the dazed and sluggish state lasted. When she regained consciousness again, she found that her uncle was standing in front of her with a dull expression, holding her neck with his thick hands.

The painful feeling of suffocation made the little girl struggle immediately.

However, the strength of a young girl was simply unable to break away from a farmer who had been working in the fields all year round.

The girl's legs were kicked hard in the air, and her hands desperately grabbed the uncle in front of her, but it was unable to relieve the suffocating feeling in her chest.

Her vision gradually became blurred. Both ears began to ring, and the strength of the struggle became slower and slower.

The strange voice of the demon rang in his ears.

"You broke away from my control so quickly? You are such a good girl... What a pity... What a pity..."

"It would be okay if you didn't wake up. Wouldn't it be painless if you just died?"

Sneering as he watched the little girl's struggling movements gradually stop, and then turned into a completely breathless corpse, the little boy said indifferently.

"Bury her nearby and don't disturb the wolf in the mountains."

After speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the dark clouds above his head, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

Although he didn't know the origin of the white wolf in the mountain, the calamity cloud that always shrouded Hanyu Mountain was the nemesis of destiny to him. If even a trace of demonic energy is revealed, it will definitely attract thunder from the sky.

Fortunately, he can still control mortals and order these two mortals to do things for him.

Huh... Those Jiuli people came by chance. Without the water ganoderma they sent, it would be difficult for me to escape from here.

But now as long as he digests the medicinal power of this water ganoderma, he will have enough power to control this body and leave here. Once he is far away from this place, he doesn't have to worry about attracting thunder from the sky. Why does he still need to hide in the body of a mortal?

When the time comes, the body will fly away directly. The sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly. There is no need to be so aggrieved!

Thinking of the frustrating days of being forced to hide in this child's body during this period of time, there was uncontrollable anger in the demon's eyes.

But now was not the time to vent his anger. He urged the controlled couple to dig a mud pit nearby, threw the little girl's body into it, and then quickly covered it up.

His identity was revealed by this little girl, which almost ruined his plan.

This little girl seemed to have a close relationship with the wolf in the mountains. If the wolf knew about her existence, she would be trapped here.

Fortunately, he reacted in time, caught up with her and blocked the little girl, otherwise... even he couldn't help but feel lucky when the demon thought of this. Looking at the couple again, seeing that they had roughly covered the little girl's body, the demon ordered them to take him back.

The medicinal power of this water Ganoderma lucidum will take one to two days to be absorbed.

In the past two days, I had to think carefully about how to get rid of the disappearance of this little girl.

Thinking about the next plan in their hearts, the demon species and the lame couple left. Although the living people left, the mountain forest where the bodies had just been buried gradually became quiet.

until……

"Ji-ji-"

A sudden monkey cry echoed in the forest.

Immediately afterwards, a white ape with white hair jumped down from the tree. Behind it, there was also a whole group of shadowy monkeys.

The monkeys stood on the ground, surrounding the land that had just covered the corpse, and they all chirped. Because they felt a certain familiar atmosphere underground.

"Ji-ji-"

The white-haired monkey king barked and gave an order, and all the other monkeys immediately crowded over and started digging in the soil. The monkeys moved quickly and the soil was soft, so they quickly dug out the little girl buried in the ground.

The moment they saw the little girl, the monkey group exploded into chaos.

"Chi! Chi!"

"Chirp! Chirp!"

The monkeys all screamed in fear and recognized who the little girl was.

The leader of the monkey king was so anxious that he scratched his head and ears. After reaching out and touching the little girl's nose, he found that the little girl was no longer breathing.
