Gurgling, gurgling.
The dark object in the middle of the deep pond continued to rise and fall on the surface of the water.
Was that thing alive?
Related to the Leech People of Songze?
Okuriookami hunched down, continuing to observe from above downwards.
Around that dark object, a large number of bubbles began to surface, breaking through into the air, while the fishy scent from below became even more pungent.
Subsequently, centered around the original dark object, more wriggling black masses floated up from beneath the water, each connected by a black line running straight to the bottom of the deep pond.
Those flesh-like lumps twisted and swelled in the water, slowly morphing into human shapes. The scene by the pond resembled malformed black embryos attached by umbilical cords, floating up and down in amniotic fluid.
The sight was exceedingly eerie.
"Hehe..."
Okuriookami heard those black masses begin to emit sounds.
