12.Chapter 12
The waiter's voice fell, and the hall was in an uproar, and Lu Sheng saw several guests in the front row sitting back in shock, and kicked over the dining table with a bang.
In the distance, there was a long roar, the sound was terrible, as sharp as a long needle suddenly piercing the ear.
She Qingrong's eyes swept and shouted angrily: "What are you arguing about!" Mr. Xie is here, and today he will tell that the beast to go and never return! ”
The noisy hall was suddenly suppressed by her majestic voice, and the old man who had amplified his words before lay on the ground and picked up the crown of Tongtian and put it on, and said with a smile: "Mrs. She is reasonable, reasonable!" It's because we care about it. With Mr. Xie here, my Dawangzhuang will be able to win today! ”
Everyone suddenly stopped their panicked movements, as if they were still, kneeling or standing, lying or sitting, and looked at Lu Sheng in unison. The look is either pleading or yearning, and so on.
Lu Sheng stood up, raised his head and listened to the howl in the distance, he had followed Wei Su to walk in the mountains, but this roar was not unfamiliar, he couldn't help it, and blurted out: "But a wild wolf can be driven away by a fire, why are you so panicked?" ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, from She Qingrong's down, the faces of the guests in the hall changed again, and She Qingrong raised her eyebrows and shouted: "Who are you?!" Linghu Feiyu, who did you invite! ”
Lu Sheng became more and more confused, this big king Zhuang Yizhuang acted in a disorderly manner, invited him for a while, and treated him as a guest without even knowing his name, but for a while he came to ask him who he was.
Linghu Feiyu strode forward, knelt in front of She Qingrong and said in a trembling voice: "Madam, a radius of thousands of miles, only this grace is like the light of day, and you will not be wrong." ”
She Qingrong sneered: "You haven't read it wrong, can this gentleman still hear it wrong?" actually treated the thousand-year-old earth wolf as an ordinary beast, could it be that he stole the order of his own division commander? ”
When Lu Sheng heard the word thousand-year-old wolf, he immediately became vigilant and didn't dare to speak again, but secretly cried out in his heart: "...... Why did he encounter these strange and inexplicable events again, or was this Hezhuang confused? ”
She Qingrong was already dragging her skirt on the ground, Shi Shiran turned around and said to Lu Sheng: "Mr. Xie, the matter has come to this, so there is no need to bother talking." If you can repel the wolves and protect my Dawangzhuang to get the south well, the concubine will be grateful. If not...... The concubine will swallow you as a snack! ”
The surrounding guests also surrounded him, with angry faces, and shouted: "Yes, dismantle his bones and eat him clean!" ”
Someone else said, "...... Leave me a hand. ”
Lu Sheng was young and vigorous after all, and was provoked by these words, his thumb pushed away the hilt of the sword, revealing a blade of about an inch, and said angrily: "Bold! I am ...... feather"
Before he could say the word Yu Linwei, the encirclement led by She Qingrong suddenly retreated more than a foot, and everyone looked frightened, and Lu Sheng felt that these people were too timid.
He still drew his sword and shouted, "I am the ...... of Yulin."
This time they could not speak, so the crowd cried out, and the cowardly turned and fled, and rushed out of the banquet hall, but hit the invisible barrier at the door, and fell back into the hall. More than 100 people in the hall were like birds trapped in cages, jumping up and down, pushing and running around without a head or brain, making a mess.
As for the attendants and musicians outside the hall, they have long since fled and disappeared.
She Qingrong's face was discolored, and her sideburns were messy in the collision of everyone, but she still shouted: "Don't escape!" Don't run away! If you dare to escape, you will be beheaded immediately! Someone came, killed this impostor, and rewarded the water of the South Hell! ”
Lu Sheng couldn't understand what she said, so he simply looked at the sword in his hand in a daze, although this sword was extremely sharp, how could it make these hundreds of guests crazy? Could it be that Xie Ying did something?
He was stunned when a strong wind suddenly hit overhead, but it was the one that made the fox fly feather jump into the air, his deep clothes were like a dark cloud, and he waved a long whip with the thickness of a wrist and a flash of blue light in his hand, and slashed down at Lu Sheng's head at a gallop.
Lu Sheng's feet sank steadily, and after a few steps, he avoided the vital point, raised his hand obliquely and picked up the long sword, only to feel that the blade of the sword was slightly blocked, and then slashed down smoothly and silently, and cut the long whip in half with a light yì.
The long whip that had been broken was about four feet long, twisting and struggling like a living creature in mid-air, and then it suddenly exploded, turning into a sky of blue feathers, flying and falling one after another.
Linghu Feiyu let out a miserable scream, his face was as pale as gold paper, and he fell to the ground with the remaining half of the long whip, as if he had been hit hard, struggling and rolling in pain, but others did not dare to touch him, but became more and more farther away. Ling Hu Feiyu struggled for a while and then stopped moving, Lu Sheng kicked him forward and didn't react, but his breath was weak, and his life and death were uncertain.
Lu Sheng's brows tightened, but he heard She Qingrong shout: "Release the arrow!" ”
Without thinking, he jumped up, overturned the white jade food table and hid behind, and a dense rain of white feather arrows swooped down on the food table, and under the force, the food table was shocked into countless cracks. With such power, why should you be afraid of a lone wolf?
When he was wondering, suddenly a terrible howl sounded in his ears, which was far away in the sky before, but now this sound seemed to be close to his ears, which shocked Lu Sheng's spirit. He tightened the hilt of his sword, suppressing a trace of cold fear that suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart, but ordinary beasts would never have such a breathtaking ability, and the four words of the thousand-year-old wolf surged into Lu Sheng's heart again, but he didn't know what kind of monster this was. At this time, he couldn't help but sigh: "It would be good if Xie Ying was invited." ”
Lu Sheng was in his own chagrin, but he noticed that he didn't know when it started, the ground began to tremble slightly, and the beast roared so close that it was as clear as an iron brush rubbing back and forth against his ear, and the cold and stinging sensation poured into his ear, stabbing himself in the heart, if it was an ordinary person, he would have been frightened in his heart and his limbs weak.
Everyone in that hall was already terrified that the six gods had no master, and they had long since bothered to attack Lu Sheng, and She Qingrong was also gone. Some of them had tails full of scales, or ears covered with fluff on their heads, or one arm turned into wings, and they screamed and wailed, but they could not suppress the terrible howl of the wolf.
Lu Sheng was afraid in his heart, his teeth trembled, his wrist shook, the sharp sword was as bright as a star under the light of the hall, the sword body trembled, and the sword roared like a dragon, and most of the fear in Lu Sheng's heart dissipated, but a majestic killing intent was born.
Demons and chaotic images, snakes, insects, rats and ants must be eradicated in order to protect the safety of the people.
Lu Sheng stood up from behind the table, and a six-legged lizard with a height of one person was rushing towards him, gray and white, opening a large mouth with fine fangs, spewing out a dark and heavy poisonous mist, before he could get close, Lu Sheng noticed the stench coming, and suddenly his chest was bored and his mind was dizzy.
He held his breath to avoid the poisonous mist and rushed forward, and slashed down with his backhand, again silently and without a sense of hindrance, as if cutting into a delicate piece of grease and cutting the lizard in half.
One trick succeeded, but the killing intent in his heart became more and more intoxicating, Lu Sheng looked at the strange Lu Li in front of him, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled: "It turns out that there are really monsters in this world, and Lu will be a real person to eliminate demons today." ”
He held a divine weapon, invincible, and killed several monsters one after another, the fighting spirit was high, and the trembling wolf howl could not be heard at all, but the ground trembled more and more intensely, and those guests turned into monsters finally broke through the invisible barrier of the hall and fled towards the courtyard in all directions, while exclaiming: "The water is coming!" The water is coming! ”
Lu Sheng was about to chase out, his left wrist tightened, but he was firmly entangled by a cyan snake tail, he cut off the snake tail with a backhand sword, and strode out of the banquet hall.
The demons seemed to be chased by the evil gods, hurriedly fleeing, a half-human and half-beast guest tripped over the threshold, Xu was too frightened, he couldn't struggle, Lu Sheng did not hesitate, raised his sword and cut down on the guest's head, the sword edge was not in time, suddenly heard a deafening roar, and a ball of fire exploded in front of him.
The heat hit his face, Lu Sheng unconsciously closed his eyes and dodged, and when he opened his eyes again, there was still a half-human, half-beast monster in front of him, only a palm-sized tiger striped flower cat came out of a pile of clothes, arched his back, and barked at Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng frowned, and let the flower cat flee in panic, but he just looked at the flame that suddenly appeared in the air like a one-legged crane, "Xie Ying? ”
The firebird was translucent, and while it dissipated, it said in a low voice, "The water is coming...... If you hold on for a while, my son-in-law will come......"
Lu Sheng seemed to have just woken up from a dream at this moment, only to hear the wolf howl sound again, this time mixed with the sound of rushing waves. He looked up to the west, the original bright moonlight was obscured by a sudden mountain peak, if you look closely, the towering shadow is the peak, but it is a huge wave roaring towards Dawangzhuang.
Although Xiaolizhuang and Dawangzhuang are close to the river, the winter is the dry season, and this monstrous wave is really tight.
Lu Sheng didn't have time to think about it, he immediately turned around and ran in the opposite direction, but along the way, he saw birds and beasts bustling, all of them were running in panic, except for him, there was no half of a figure, his heart was cold, and he was afraid that the people along the river had suffered this unwarranted disaster.
I don't know how long I ran, a high mountain suddenly appeared in front of me, the slope and cliff were steep, and Lu Sheng climbed one after another in the crowd of birds and beasts, and fled to the top of the mountain. Behind him, bursts of crying suddenly sounded, Lu Sheng looked back in a panic, but saw that the black water wave was chasing after him, but countless human forms appeared in the water waves, changing endlessly, condensing the faces of She Qingrong, Ling Hu Feiyu and other people in the Great King Village, and the countless sharp claws formed by the black water stretched forward, stretched out of the water, and grabbed towards Lu Sheng, while crying: "Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie, I am waiting for you to be like a guest, how can you leave us and others to escape alone?" ”
A few boar and wild mice that had fallen behind were grabbed by the sharp claws, struggling and crying, but they were still pulled into the water and disappeared.
Lu Sheng's heart became more and more frightened, but he tripped over the withered tree roots under his feet, fell to the ground, and was immediately stepped on by some unknown beast several times, and his claws scratched his back, so that he almost broke his ribs and fainted.
A big wave finally slapped down fiercely, grazing at Lu Sheng's feet, shaking the ground and shaking the mountain, and the boulder rolled down from the mountain. Some of the beasts were caught off guard, and they were also shaken and fell and rolled down, screaming miserably, and falling into the black water, and in a moment they sank and never came up again.
Lu Sheng hugged a piece of tree root, and casually intercepted the hair ball that rolled down from front of him and put it on the root, it was a tiger skin cat, and he didn't care to see if it was the same one in the banquet hall. The claws condensed by the black water are like countless demon vines protruding from the water, and when they see the living thing, they grab and drag it into the water, once they get close, it is extremely cold, Lu Sheng only felt that the cold was approaching, and he swung his sword and slashed down.
With a single slash, a sharp cry resounded through the night sky: "Mr. Xie! You're so ruthless! You're so ruthless! I'm so resentful! I'm so resentful! ”
The black water was cut open but did not disappear, but instead wrapped around the sword like a rope, spreading towards the hilt.
Lu Sheng's scalp exploded in horror, but he still refused to let go of the hilt of the sword, and when he was hesitating, the collar on the back of his neck suddenly tightened, and his body was volleying, only to feel that the waves in front of him were dark and swirling upside down, and when he came back to his senses, he had fallen into someone's thick and solid arms.
Lu Sheng raised his head, and saw a peerless face shining like a pearl in the boundless darkness, cold and outstanding, tall and majestic, eyes like starlight, dressed in a snow-white Taoist robe, the robe was hunting and flying in the night wind, like the gods of the heavenly court, the cyclamen on the top of the mountain, not stained with the slightest breath of mortal dust.
Lu Sheng lost his mind and said, "Xie Ying, am I dreaming?" ”
He muttered to himself for a while, but Xie Ying had already stepped over the cliff and stood on a huge banyan tree, which was less than a foot above the ground, but it was a knot of air roots, forming a suspended platform. Xie Ying threw him on the platform, Lu Sheng was caught off guard, fell and the wound on his back cracked again, snorted in pain, turned over and said angrily: "You can't ...... Lighter. ”
Xie Ying ignored him, just stood on the branch and looked down the mountain.
Lu Sheng had no choice but to hum and chirp and stand up, muttering and complaining while standing beside Xie Ying, and suddenly felt like someone had choked his throat, and he couldn't make a sound.
Under the mountain, there is an ocean, the black water is rippling, boundless, there are countless shadows on the water, there are countless shadows, such as claw demon vines, like ghost shadows, dragging the struggling living creatures, entering the water and disappearing.
The wind is whistling, and the sound of water is agitated, like a hundred ghosts crying, making people's hearts more and more cold.
Above this boundless black water, a bright moon is like an ice wheel jade disk, but it is glowing with a strange cyan, scattering the cold brilliance, dyeing everything with a layer of terrifying cold light, faint and blue, as if revealing a dead air.
A wave crest slowly rose in the center of the black water, holding its head The huge monster gradually rose and grew, with a long snout, four claws, and an iron tail, and the bright moon behind it, slowly revealing its body, it was actually a giant wolf with an iron gray head, and its ice blue eyes were like frost condensation, and it raised its head to the bright moon and roared violently.
With the sound of wolf howling, the crest of the wave in the black water rose again, and it gradually rose higher than the mountain, flapping around, the waves crashed on the shore, surging slowly, and the water level slowly rose, submerging half of the peak, and slowly submerged towards the top of the mountain.
Lu Sheng said in a trembling voice: "What the hell is this...... What monsters? ”
Xie Ying said: "Earth wolf." ”
Lu Sheng said angrily: "What kind of monster is the earth wolf!" ”
Xie Ying slowly straightened out the wide sleeves, smoothed them out, and sneered: "Ignorant boy, what are you proud of? ”
Lu Sheng choked, he experienced nine deaths and a lifetime, and saw this strange and very strange scene, now his mind is confused, where can he still keep his normal heart, he didn't know how to reply to him for a while, and when he was stunned, he heard Xie Ying say: "The ground wolf was born underground, shaped like a dog, can escape the ground, and is good at building and digging crypts." Woe to you. ”
Lu Shengqi said: "This is clearly a water beast that manipulates black water, why not call it a water wolf?" ”
Xie Ying's gesture was sluggish, and he was a little speechless for a while. This Yu Lin Lang didn't take the idea of seeing it to heart at all, but discussed the characteristics of this monster with him.
But he still said, "The flood was not controlled by this monster, but he dug it up." ”
Lu Sheng's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly asked, "Xie Ying, since you know the ins and outs, what is the solution to it?" ”
Xie Ying still continued to arrange his clothes, took off the silk ribbon that tied his hair, and any long hair fluttered slowly in the night breeze, which made this young man like a fairy coming to the world, handsome and graceful.
He held the plain white silk belt between his two fingers, and let it spontaneously combust in the wind, turning into flying ash and scattering everywhere, but there was a slight grim color between his eyebrows, "This monster actually dug through the South Hell, but this is a little tricky." ”
The Southern Hades, the Heavenly Pond also.
Inherit the qi of heaven and earth, condense the essence of the four seas, collect Kunpeng, and swallow the eight wildernesses.
Lu Sheng had only seen it in the Zhiwei book, and it was just a mortal delusion, but at this time, he only felt dizzy, his eyes were dizzy, and he said blankly: "This world is ...... Is there really a South Underworld? ”
Xie Ying said: "There is no Southern Underworld in the world, but this earth wolf cultivation should be more than a thousand years old, and it can open up the void and penetrate the realm, so it penetrates the ground and digs wells, penetrates the Southern Underworld, and causes this disaster in vain." This beast is in trouble. ”
Lu Sheng said: "The top priority is how to quell the disaster, Xie Ying, I should go all out." ”
Xie Ying said with his hand: "What can you do, if it weren't for ......" He suddenly stopped, glanced at Lu Sheng thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed, smiling lightly, as if a white hibiscus bloomed on the boundless black water. Lu Sheng was stunned for a moment, but he heard Xie Ying's words turn around, "That's it, you go back to Jianye quickly and live in my mansion, my servants naturally know how to deal with it." ”
He pointed behind Lu Sheng, and Lu Sheng followed where he was pointing, but saw that the fly ash from the previous burning silk ribbon had condensed into a narrow road, crossing the ocean of black water, leading to nowhere. Some shrewd animals had already jumped on the path and ran away.
Lu Sheng couldn't be amazed at his magic skills, and only asked, "If I leave, do you want to deal with it alone?" ”
Xie Ying said: "Naturally. ”
Lu Sheng said: "I'll stay and help you." ”
Xie Ying shook his head and said, "Half a finger can't help, it's light to go." ”
Lu Sheng hesitated: "I, I'm not leaving." ”
Xie Ying's slender brows furrowed slightly, "If I stay, I won't have time to take care of it, ten deaths and nine lives." ”
Lu Sheng gasped, but instead became more and more determined: "Then I won't leave." ”
Xie Ying couldn't help laughing and said, "You kid, do you think you're a hero?" ”
Lu Sheng resolutely said: "If it's so dangerous, we can't just leave you alone...... On Huangquan Road, it is good to have someone as a companion. ”
Xie Ying was said to look strange, paused for a moment, and then faded a string of green and gold beads from his wrist, the grains were no more than the size of soybean grains, but they were all finely carved into the shape of half-open buds, I don't know what kind of stone it was, and there was a little golden glow in the cyan, showing a very luxurious and compelling appearance.
Xie Ying put the beads on Lu Sheng's right wrist, and said, "Although you want to find death, don't bother me, stay on the banyan tree and don't leave." ”
Lu Sheng was used to hearing his poisonous tongue, so he didn't refute it, but only smiled bitterly: "...... I remembered. ”
Xie Ying grabbed it out of thin air again, and suddenly there was a golden longbow in his hand, which was full of golden light, and handed over three blue-purple feather arrows to Lu Sheng, "If you have the strength to spare, look for an abnormality on the wolf's body—as for what is abnormal, you can know when you see it." If you find it and kill it with this bow and arrow, if you can't find it...... Just leave it to fate. ”
Lu Sheng caught the bow and arrow, and said with a bitter face: "Xie Ying, you are so depressed, even I can't raise my fighting spirit." ”
Xie Ying said: "I know. ”
Then he turned and jumped down and stood on the flat ground outside the banyan tree.
Lu Sheng said: "What do you know, why don't I know ...... at all?"
He was babbling, and suddenly he was silent.
Xie Ying made a starting gesture at this moment.
His left palm is raised above his head, his palm is facing the sky, his right hand is pointing at the sword, and he is horizontally in front of his chest, his limbs are slender, his fingers are also very slender, his bones are beautiful, his long sleeves slide, revealing an arm, wrapped in plain white clothes, like a beautiful jade wrapped around the clouds in the cyan moonlight.
Then he waved his left palm down, and his right hand crossed a semicircle in front of his chest, flicking it outward, and the sleeves of his robe flew up, as if bringing out the sound of wind and thunder, and Xie Ying took a step forward.
Boom –
It was clearly soft and muddy, but there was a loud sound that made the mountains tremble.
Lu Sheng couldn't make a sound at all, he just stared blankly at the flawless figure dancing under the moon, only to feel that as he raised his hand and raised his foot, a burst of bells rang from the depths of his soul, shaking his whole body numb, unable to move.
His eyes seemed to be glued to Xie Ying, chasing him and wandering, and his Taoist clothes turned into flowing clouds and wandered.
Lu Sheng's whole body couldn't move, but his mind was extremely clear, and when Xie Ying turned around and took another step, he finally came to his senses.
Xie Ying stepped on the Big Dipper......
Seven Star Step is also known as Yu Step, according to legend, it is the first sage of water control created by Yu, after thousands of years, by the Taoist follow-up, carry forward.
Lu Sheng had seen the Taoist priest of the Dustless View playing Jiao, although the ceremony was solemn, but the steps were strange and strange, and it was very difficult to step on. However, the steps of this noble son with outstanding demeanor in front of him are a little specious, raising his hand and raising his foot, all of them are beautiful and holy, like the dance of the goddess of heaven, and the fragrant flowers are falling.
Lu Sheng stared at the figure in the dance, his posture was light, but he was powerful, he was windy, thunderous at the fall, long sleeves flying, clothes were like clouds, and black hair hunted and hunted.
Xie Ying was already handsome and dusty, but at this moment, her face became more and more empty, not like a human expression, no desire, no thought, no sorrow or joy, and she was neither male nor female, just like the face of a god and Buddha.
The boundless sense of coercion emanated from the white-clothed dancer, Lu Sheng only felt a chill in his back, his bow and arrow hanging down at his feet, his body stiffened, cold sweat rolled down, his spirit was shocked, and he almost wanted to curl up in fear.
Shenwei is like a prison, Wei Wei is heavy; God's grace is like the sea, vast and wide.
This is by no means a dance of the world, a dance of extraordinary people, but to please the gods with one's own body, communicate the will of heaven with rhythm, and the palm is raised to worship heaven and earth, and the sword is pointed down to pass yin and yang.
This is called the dance of welcoming the gods.
Boom –
Boom –
Boom –
Xie Ying stepped forward, flipped his palms, and danced.
Sweat slowly slid down his pale cheeks.
In the shocking sound, the waves that rushed straight into the sky shrank violently, and even the blue and gray moonlight seemed to gradually change back to bright silver light.
On Xie Ying's originally plain white robe, the cuffs, collar, belt, hem and hanging Bo belt slowly revealed silver lines, like beautiful runes made of silver threads.
The silver light flickered, and he was not even more popular, and as he danced, the light and shadow became brighter and brighter.
Lu Sheng suddenly heard a deep and beautiful voice singing slowly, and the voice was like a thread, which directly touched people's heartstrings.
There is the sea in the east, and there is only a drowning mud.
The dragon flows side by side, up and down.
Fog and rain are lewd, and white glue is only.
……
Substitute water is unfathomable, unfathomable.
The sky is white, and the cold is condensed.
The silver light on Xie Ying's sleeve shone more and more brightly, breaking away from his robe and turning into countless silver threads, surrounding him, condensing into eight different patterns.
