Beneath the river, shadows of piled bones loomed, and atop the highest point of the heap, a wild child was gripping a bunch of water grass with all his might, pulling downwards with all the strength he could muster.
Xu Qing, expecting more than he got, instantly found the corpse in his hand less fascinating after seeing the heap of bones and the wild child at his feet.
Depositing the corpse in the Box Garden, Xu Qing rubbed his chin, scrutinizing the naked three-year-old child.
Though said to be a three-year-old, it didn't quite resemble an ordinary child. In fact, it looked more like a water monster.
This monster had small horns on its head, scales like a carp on its body, a tiger's tail, and knee joints like tiger paws. The key feature was its human-like face, resembling a young child's.
"This appearance is somewhat similar to the Water Tiger mentioned in the legends..."
