Chapter 26: Tribute
Xu Zhishu disappeared quietly, and no one knew that he was so missing.
The river, which was still in a strange turmoil just now, suddenly calmed down.
The whirlpool in the river was gone, and the old ox was gone.
Xu Zhishu is gone, and the giant salamander is gone.
No one saw all this, only a few birds.
"Twitter"
The birds, somewhat frightened, stood on the branches of the river and throbbed restlessly, warning each other with shrill voices, but did not fly away.
They still have to wait until a starling with a phoenix crown comes to summon them before they can leave.
"Wow"
Suddenly, the calm surface of the river suddenly turned into a stormy sea.
"Smack"
The huge waves, which were more than three meters high, swung directly from the river and swung in all directions. The chain bridge, which had just been repaired during the day, was slapped by the huge waves in the river, and suddenly it was torn apart, and the wooden planks that had been erected floated everywhere, and the iron ropes kept swaying and crumbling.
At the same time, in the middle of the dark river, a huge snake head appeared.
The snake's head was the size of a window, and its eyes were like the tires of a scooter. It was pitch black, its scales glittering in the moonlight, and a scarlet letter came out of its mouth, the thickness of a man's thigh.
It's not a snake anymore, it's a prehistoric monster.
The nearly twenty-meter-long python born in this mountain cannot be compared with it, and in front of it, it is just a small earthworm.
"Twitter"
The birds screamed in fright, disturbing the peaceful night sky. They didn't dare to stay any longer, and they were frightened, flapping their wings and flying away.
But suddenly, the head of the snake in the river suddenly rose high, and the body of the snake grew out of the water.
In the blink of an eye, the middle of the river was no longer a snake head, but a snake body that I don't know how many there were, and the snake head was high in the air, and the forest was terrifying.
Counting from the surface of the river, the snake was twenty meters tall. Just revealing half of his body, he overshadowed the giant python before, how terrifying?
The big snake suddenly opened its mouth, and between the opening and closing of its mouth, the distance between the upper jaw and the lower jaw was two or three meters.
The mouth is sticky with saliva, and the fangs are cold, and it looks extremely hideous.
Each fang was a meter or two long, and it was as if it could bite off a mountain in one bite. And in its mouth, there is a gap, and at that gap is a broken tooth.
Obviously, this is the big snake that Xu Qianyun and they are looking for, and its broken tooth is now left in Lin Qingshan's hands.
"Shhhh
A hiss rang out, and the serpent's mouth opened violently.
But suddenly, the sand flew away, and I saw that the stones by the river began to roll down uncontrollably towards the center of the river, as if there was some suction in the center of the river.
The trees by the river trembled, and in an instant, all the branches were bald. The leaves swarmed into the serpent's mouth.
The water in the river was all boiling, swinging around, extremely restless.
"Boom-"
There was a terrible cry, but I saw a black monster running out of the river. It was the giant salamander that dragged Xu Zhishu into the water.
The giant salamander was not fast on the shore, but this time, it was unprecedentedly faster, and it could almost catch up with an adult trot.
It is not lonely, it still has a person in its mouth, it is Xu Zhishu. However, it did not eat Xu Zhishu, but ran to the shore while spitting the drowned Xu Zhishu into the water.
After spitting out Xu Zhishu, the giant salamander became faster, like a black line, and quickly rushed to the shore, hiding in a crack in the stone, not daring to come out.
"Twitter"
The frightened birds flapped their wings while screaming. But a strange scene appeared, only to see that the birds did not move forward or retreat, just stagnated in the air, hovering like helicopters.
"Shhhh
The serpent's mouth let out another roar.
"Twitter"
Several flying birds suddenly turned into a line and quickly retreated, like bullets, and quickly entered the mouth of the big snake. The difference between the sizes is really not like a bird entering a snake's beak, but a bird entering a cave.
The serpent closed its mouth, and the body under its head became flattened. But everything around him has returned to calm.
It slowly opened its mouth, and all the leaves and other debris were spit out again, and it entered the river.
With the spitting, its body swelled up, and after a circle of growth, it slowly retracted back into the water.
The area fell silent as if nothing had happened.
However, there were still traces of flying sand and rocks on the ground by the river, and the ground seemed to be ploughed to one side.
None of the trees in the row by the river are intact, and the whole row is tilted towards the river. In every tree, there is no longer a leaf......
All this is happening, no one knows.
No one will know about it anymore.
Originally, the birds knew, but it seemed that the serpent understood that the birds could speak, so he sucked the only witness away. Only the giant salamander is alive, but how can the giant salamander speak?
Following.
As soon as Li Xun and the others got up, they heard a mess outside the village.
Lin Qingshan shouted: "What's going on outside?"
The four soldiers who were on night duty outside the door ran in sleepily and reported:
"Captain, the villagers got together to chat, and it was not clear what was going on. ”
Lin Qingshan frowned and shouted, "I don't know, are you a pig, I don't know, I won't inquire." ”
"Yes!"
"Wait. ”
Li Xun opened his mouth and screamed, then shook off the quilt and flicked the head of Xiaobao, who was sleeping like a human in the quilt.
"You're crazy!"
Xiaobao's head was suddenly flicked, and he flapped his wings and flew up immediately.
Li Xun smiled: "What's going on outside? What are the villagers arguing about?"
Xiaobao glanced at Li Xun helplessly, stood at the window and called a few times, and after a while, the nearby birds began to chirp.
Li Xun took advantage of the process of talking to the birds outside, and then said to Lin Qingshan: "When you let your subordinates use their brains, you use your brains first." Is it possible for the villagers of Xujiashan Village to tell the truth to your soldiers?"
Lin Qingshan laughed dryly, glanced at the soldier on duty, and glared: "Why don't you go to sleep?"
"Yes!"
At this time, Xiaobao began to speak:
"Something strange happened. ”
"What's the matter?"
At this time, everyone woke up, surrounded Xiaobao in a swarm, and stared at each other.
Xiaobao said: "I heard that Xu Zhishu is missing. I went missing last night, and I couldn't find it everywhere. Xu Zhishu's daughter-in-law was crying and fainting at this time, and some villagers talked about it, saying that Xu Zhishu's daughter-in-law said that Xu Zhishu took a cow out last night and said that he would pay tribute to Grandpa Longshen. ”
"Grandpa Ryujin?"
"Tribute?"
Everyone was shocked, could it be the big snake?
Li Xun asked in a deep voice, "Is there anything else?"
"That's all, Xu Zhishu's daughter-in-law is still in a coma at this time. ”
"Did you say where the dragon god grandfather is, or where to pay tribute?"
Li Xun continued to ask. Xiaobao shook his head: "No one said it, it seems that everyone knows it." ”
