Chapter 178： offering sacrifice to the river god

"Hey! Why are you still following me?" Lu Zheng said in surprise.

At this time, there were three large bags on the right side of Guangyue's head, which had not subsided for the time being. There was a dark circle on the left eye, which turned purple, and the right cheek was also a little swollen, and a small hole was broken at the corner of the mouth.

It looks... like you just got beaten up?

"Amitabha!" Guangyue said excitedly, "I didn't expect that fellow Daoist not only cultivates both Taoism and martial arts, but also has extraordinary attainments. With such a talent, how can you delay the love of your children?"

Lu Zheng: ('°Δ°`)

Guangyue said, "I know my brother doesn't understand me now, but the poor monk must urge the Taoist brother not to waste this talent. One day, Taoist brother, you will know my heart."

"I thank you! I won't!" Lu Zheng said helplessly, "Master, I'm actually very self-disciplined, and I won't kill my fighting spirit because of my children's private affairs."

"But the fox girl is charming, and the Taoist brother is nostalgic for the village and does not go out. It is a matter of time." Guangyue said with a stern face, "and only traveling with the poor monk can the Taoist brother be brave and diligent and polish his cultivation."

Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes and held the handle of the knife with his backhand.

...

Linhe Village, a small village, has a very common name, which is exactly the same as the name of the countless villages facing the river in Dajingchao, except that the river that Linhe Village is adjacent to is called Lanshui River, and there are three other villages close to it. .

These four villages are not connected to the land road outside, and are blocked by mountains. The only way out is to go down the Lanshui River and enter the main road of the river to connect to the outside world.

It's just that the Lanshui River is narrow and fast, with undercurrents surging, and dangerous shoals everywhere.

If this is the case, that's all. With the skillful water skills passed down from generation to generation by the villagers and the hydrology of the Lanshui River passed down, they can also go out smoothly.

But this is the fairy world! There are monsters!

So... Since a few decades ago, there was a "River God" in the Lanshui River, every year in the four villages, a pair of virgins and virgins were sacrificed.

This year, it's the year of offering sacrifices in Linhe Village. Two pairs of parents were unlucky by drawing lots and donated their children. They cried and watched their children get dressed up, surrounded and carried by the villagers of the four villages. Towards the Lanshui River.

Beating gongs and drums, the noisy team came out from the entrance of the village and walked towards the river bank not far away. At the same time, an invisible shadow loomed in the Lanshui River.

at this time……

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The voice came, and two figures came out from the depths of the mountain, a golden light and a blue shadow, divided and closed.

Seeing the crowd here, the blue shadow made a "huh", stopped immediately, and then rushed over with his feet flying.

The villagers stared at him, only to find that this Qingying was a young son in a blue Confucian robe, with a face like a crown of jade, eyes like stars, handsome and handsome.

And that golden light also followed, but it was a rather sturdy-looking monk, but at this time, his head was full of buns, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and he looked very miserable.

"I have seen two... Immortal Masters!"

The villagers saluted one after another, those who had seen the world just bowed, and the timid ones knelt down directly.

"No gift, no gift, you are..."

Lu Zheng glanced at the ignorant boys and girls who were surrounded by the villagers on the wooden mat in the middle, still holding toys, and looked at the two families who were following the team and kept touching tears. He already had guesses in his heart. .

"Hui Xianshi, we are offering sacrifices to the river god, and bless the Lanshui River with good weather next year..." The old man headed bowed and said.

"Sacrificing to the River God..." Lu Zheng smacked his lips, "How did you sacrifice? Besides burning incense, what are the sacrifices? Is it steamed buns, fruits and vegetables, or livestock?"

"This……"

In Dajinglu, it is strictly forbidden to use living people in sacrifices. What the ghosts and gods of Jingchao want is incense, not human blood.

"Amitabha!" Guangyue's eyes flickered with divine light, "Eating people? Still pretending to be a river god? Is this an evil god?"

To be honest, it's fine to just eat people, just dodge a little bit, don't take the initiative, don't take the initiative to attack, Dajingchao may not be able to take care of it, such as Wild Wolf Mountain.

But if you dare to use the idea of ​​incense, it is a matter of principle. As long as Da Jingchao knows about it, it will definitely be destroyed by backhand, killing chickens and warning monkeys.

"It's not a monster, it's a water ghost." Guangyue said in a broken voice, "Be punished!"

"It's true!" Lu Zheng nodded.

"Immortal master wait a moment! Immortal master wait a moment!" The headed old man hurriedly advised, "River God can't be angered! Decades ago, an immortal master came here, but not only did he die, but Lan Shuihe also let Lan Shuihe be killed for a year. It's all choppy, and we haven't been out for a year!"

"Yes, yes!" Several elderly people were also terrified.

"So you just watched them wash their faces in tears?" Lu Zheng pointed to the two families behind the team.

"That would be better than a few villages where everyone died?" The headed old man looked sad and angry.

Lu Zheng nodded, "What you said does make sense."

Hearing Lu Zheng's words, many villagers breathed a sigh of relief, and the anticipation on the faces of those who fell behind the team instantly turned to despair.

Of course Guangyue didn't believe that Lu Zheng would just forget it, so he looked at Lu Zheng curiously, only to hear Lu Zheng continue, "But what you said makes sense Can you stop me?"

The headed old man: ? ? ?

"Amitabha!" Guangyue looked relieved, "Brother Daoist should really travel with the poor monk."

"I'll travel a ghost with you!" Lu Zheng scolded, then turned to the Lanshui River, and saw a black shadow moving upstream in the water, at the same time sinking, hiding his shadow on the water.

"Go!"

Lu Zheng's blood was bubbling, and he reached the top of the Lanshui River in an instant, and then his body was like an arrow, shooting straight to the bottom of the water.

"Brother Dao is going into the water?" Guang Yue was taken aback, and then he saw Lu Zheng's hand twisting a seal, and then the river water automatically drained to both sides three feet in front of him.

"Water Avoidance Technique?!"

"You are on guard above, and I'll explore the way below, lest he hide in the dark caves at the bottom of the water and not find it." Lu Zheng said, pushing the water in, sticking to the bottom of the Lanshui River, all the way upstream.

"Okay!" Guangyue is not hypocritical, holding a wooden stick, galloping with Lu Zheng by the river, holding the Buddha's seal in his hand, and can strike a fatal blow at any time.

...

The two of them went up three miles, and they saw that the terrain ahead was dangerous and the water was rushing. At this time, there were countless waves rising out of thin air, and then a powerful voice sounded in the ears of the two of them, "You drive your way, this seat is with you. There is no injustice or enmity, we don’t commit river water, why do we come to seek the bad luck of this seat?”

"There's no reason." Lu Zheng walked leisurely at the bottom of the river, his speed undiminished, "I just remembered that I haven't eaten river fresh for a long time, I just miss it." Click to download this site APP, massive novels, free to read!
