Several people left the Soul Requieming Lake, and the fog on the lake slowly dissipated.

George was suddenly full of blood and resurrected, "Oh, that lake is amazing, as amazing as the legends say, it's really a magical place."

Bai Yunxi glanced at George and sneered, "That lake is very dangerous."

George said with disapproval: "It's okay, we may have encountered extreme weather conditions. It's a pity, I was so nervous just now that I forgot to take pictures..."

Bai Yunxi: "..." I love taking selfies, and there really is no borders!

"If I had just filmed it, my friends would definitely admire me." George said happily.

Ye Fan nodded and said, "Yes, they will give you a thumbs up."

George looked at Ye Fan, thinking that he had found a bosom friend, "Otherwise, let's go back now!"

Bai Yunxi: "..." This guy, George, has really healed the scar and forgot the pain.

"Mr. George, there are water ghosts in this lake, so don't get close." The village chief said nervously.

Bai Yunxi found that the village chief was very enthusiastic about George, but he seemed to be hiding something.

"Water ghost, there are no ghosts in this world at all. The scene in this lake must have a scientific and reasonable explanation. Perhaps, an expert who studies weather can be invited." George said eloquently.

Bai Yunxi rolled his eyes and secretly said: This guy was scared just now, and there is nothing unusual about this.

...

Bai Yunxi and Ye Fan were sitting opposite each other in the room.

"What do you think about Soul Requisition Lake!" Bai Yunxi asked.

Just as Ye Fan was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.

Bai Yunxi opened the door and saw Chen Ran.

"Mr. Bai, Mr. Ye, I'm sorry to disturb you so late." Chen Ran said apologetically.

"Mr. Chen is here so late, something is wrong!"

Chen Ran nodded and said: "There are some things. After George came to Huaguo, he was looking for investment opportunities. A few days ago, the mayor above Huai Village knew about George's investment ideas and that George likes supernatural events. I recommend Huai Village.”

Bai Yunxi secretly said: Are you attracting investment? The mayor has come forward, and the origin of this George seems a little complicated!

"This Huai Village is very strange, there are a lot of people who go out, but there are not many promising people. I heard that the people who go out from Huai Village rarely end well, some break their legs on the construction site, and some If you gamble outside, you will lose everything."

"Now, many of the villages are poor households. I think the scenery here is not bad. Mr. Bai, do you think this is worth investing in?"

Bai Yunxi considered it for a while, and said puzzledly, "Mr. Chen, why did you think of asking me?"

"When I saw Mr. Bai, I felt that Mr. Bai was not an ordinary person." Chen Ran said.

"I don't think Mr. George is an ordinary man either."

Chen Ran smiled bitterly and said, "George has a good background, but after he got the certificate from me, he was kicked out of the house by his father."

Ye Fan blinked and said with some sympathy: "Expulsion from the house, his father is too open-minded. I heard that foreign parents are more open? Yunxi and I are together because of the support of the two parents."

Chen Ran: "..."

Bai Yunxi thought about it for a while, and said tactfully, "I don't know, has Mr. Chen noticed that there are obviously more men than women in this village."

Chen Ran smiled and said, "It seems so."

"Under normal circumstances, the proportion of boys and girls born should be about the same, but there are very few women in this village. Mr. Chen can check this information and then consider investing." Bai Yunxi said.

Chen Ran was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Thank you, Master Bai for your pointer."

...

Ye Fan looked at Bai Yunxi and said, "Yunxi, you saw it too."

"Almost, there are many drowned baby girls in the lake. The children may run to the lake to swim, but how could the baby girl run into the lake? The only possibility is that when they were born, they were drowned."

Preference for sons over daughters has always been a bad habit in many places. In many places in China, the idea that not having a boy is equal to extinction is still deeply ingrained.

A few decades ago, there was a three-year famine. At that time, many people starved to death. Under extreme circumstances, people would do some terrifying things.

There were many baby girls in the lake, they should have died at that time, but there are still many more.

"When I was by the lake just now, I met a ghost girl!"

"Big sister?" Bai Yunxi asked suspiciously.

"Yes! There are only two factions in the lake, the female ghost faction, the male ghost faction, and the female ghost faction. The ghosts are all abandoned by their parents and drowned in the lake, while the male ghosts are deeply resentful in the lake. The baby girl was pulled down."

"So, it's all boys who drown?" Bai Yunxi asked.

"Well, almost." Ye Fan nodded. "There are too many resentful ghosts in the lake, it seems that terrifying evil ghosts have spawned!"

...

There are several villagers gathered in the village chief's house.

"Village Chief, can you let these outsiders in? If you let those guys know, then..."

The village chief took a cigarette and said, "Then what do you say? The surrounding villages are getting rich, and even our village is getting poorer and poorer. The farmers who grow crops are not growing well, and those who go out to work often have accidents. , I mean, that foreign devil is a rich man, if you take him, let alone hundreds or tens of millions, hundreds of millions are not a problem, won't you be rich by then?"

"Can people be willing to invest?"

"That's a rich second-generation owner who is not bad for money. He is young and doesn't understand our situation. We have served him well, and we are not afraid that he will not invest!"

"That foreign devil seems to be a rabbit master. This foreign devil likes people who don't lay eggs. If two men are together, isn't this going to be extinct?"

"I heard that people from abroad are popular and extinct!"

"What does this foreigner think! Why can't you think about it like that?"

"The one with that foreign devil seems to be a couple. It looks like he's quite rich. It's strange that the rich now like men. In the future, who will the property be left to!"

The village chief glanced coldly at the person who was speaking and said, "You don't care who they leave it to, and it will definitely not be left to you."

...

Bai Yunxi's phone rang, Bai Yunxi answered the phone, and a look of joy flashed on his face.

"Good news?"

Bai Yunxi nodded and said, "Yes, the towing company I contacted earlier has already repaired the car and shipped it."

Ye Fanman said excitedly: "Great, so we don't have to rub other people's cars."

Bai Yunxi glared at Ye Fan and said, "How dare you say that if you didn't drive like this, how could the car break down."

Bai Yunxi went out and made handover with the people from the towing company.

Bai Yunxi was a little surprised to find that a bunch of red hair and green hair followed the people of the towing company into the village.

Bai Yunxi got a rough idea from the words of a few rich second generation.

Ye Fan accidentally entered the race of a few rich second-generation racers, and finally got rid of these guys. These guys were not convinced and came to challenge Ye Fan.

Ye Fan leaned on his waist and looked at the people in front of him, "Racing? I'm not interested!"

"Does your Excellency look down on us?" a red-haired man said displeased.

"Your speed is too slow, besides, racing is not my hobby." Ye Fan said lightly.

Ye Fan was telling the truth, but a few rich second-generations were all red-eyed by Ye Fan's arrogant attitude.

"Then what are your hobbies?"

"Hobby? My hobby is treasure hunting!" Ye Fan said.

There are many ancient tombs in this place. Treasure hunting is a euphemism for tomb robbery. Ye Fan said that, several rich second-generations expressed contempt for Ye Fan!

Chen Ran looked for a few villagers and attacked, and then went to the police station of Huai Village to inquire about the affairs of Huai Village, and found some surprising clues.

When Chen Ran came back, he saw Ye Fan being besieged by several rich second-generations.

Ye Fan finally got rid of the entanglement of several rich second-generation.

"Those guys are so troublesome!" Ye Fan walked into the house with a bit of depression.

Bai Yunxi rolled his eyes and said, "If it weren't for your arrogant attitude, people wouldn't bother you so much."

"Then I would have driven faster than them!"

"You cheated, what's there to be proud of." Bai Yunxi said coldly.

"I don't cheat, and I drive fast!" Ye Fan said.

Chen Ran rolled his eyes and said, "I saw your car at the door. It's a very nice car!"

Bai Yunxi smiled and said, "Is it alright, Mr. Chen, do you have anything to do with us?"

Chen Ran nodded immediately and said: "There is something, I went to the police station and checked the population records of Huai Village. Decades ago, in the era of the three-year famine, the number of baby girls born in Huai Village dropped sharply. , the ratio of males to females has been imbalanced since then."

"There are few girls from Huai Village, which leads to the fact that they can only marry wives from other villages, but for some reason, people from other villages are not very willing to marry, so people in Huai Village can only buy women from human traffickers. However, not all villagers can afford it, and many villagers can only play as bachelors."

"Girl babies are being born less often now, so you can use a relationship to distinguish between males and females. If it's a girl, it will be destroyed." Although the state has banned this method, there are always some people who can take risks for money.

"However, there should be no such means at that time, I don't know what happened to those baby girls!" Chen Ran said with some confusion.

"Those missing girls! They are all in the lake." Ye Fan said casually.

Chen Ran wanted to say something, but Ye Fan's face turned pale with fright. "Young Master Ye, what did you say?"

Ye Fan smiled and said, "It's nothing."

Chen Ran calmed down and said, "The Soul Requisition Lake has existed for hundreds of years, but the abnormality seems to have occurred decades ago..." This means that it was almost three years of famine.

Chen Ran suddenly thought of a possibility. When the country is famine, he always chooses to protect himself. At that time, many baby girls were drowned. After that, the state planned family planning, and infant drowning became a habit..

Chen Ran's heart was pounding, and he secretly said: If the problem with Soul Requiem Lake is due to the grievances of those dead baby girls, it is no wonder that George asked the source of the abnormality of Soul Requisition Lake, and the village chief always kept it secret..
