Chapter 662: Suo Ye Enters the Water to Seek Spirituality
The night is already very deep, but the atmosphere on the bank of the river is weird, people are wearing colorful clothes, kneeling silently by the river, burning incense and praying, raising their heads from time to time, looking at the dark and secluded river, their eyes are full of awe.
They did not dare to approach the temple of the river god, but simply placed the offerings on the large altar that had not yet been completed.
Although this high altar has just been erected, the soil around it has long been trampled hard and solid, and even a little smooth, as if it has been tamped countless times.
The common people are extremely religious, and the dragon comes out of the Tube River, how can they not come to worship?
As soon as the news spread, more and more people came to worship, day and night, and the river temple became lively.
After all, it is a moat, and the forbidden army will not let the people get close to the bank of the river near the city gate, and in desperation, people can only go to the other side of the river temple to worship.
But if you want to go there, you need to pay some incense money every time, but fortunately, it's not a lot of money, it depends entirely on your mind, no matter how much, the goods can be, and it's also arbitrary.
This did not arouse the disgust of the believers, on the contrary, many people were willing to honor the big money, and of course, with these people to maintain order, the scene was orderly.
And they also recruited some merchants on the riverbank, and this area is even more lively, as if it is a new business district on the outskirts of Beijing.
Of course, this is just a daytime job, if it is night, no one dares to make a big noise and annoy the dragon, but I am afraid that no one will survive.
With the flow of people, it will be profitable, and naturally there will be people alive, but no one dares to touch this territory, because the one who rides the dragon has already spoken and handed over the river temple to Jin Chang to manage!
Jin Changjin was just a small man, and after getting Li Mi's teachings, he no longer bullied the people, so the incense money was so freewheeling, as for soliciting merchants, the original intention was also because some believers did not see Shenlong and did not go home, and they had been living on the bank of the river, and they couldn't get rid of it.
People always have to eat and drink, and since these people refuse to leave, Jin Changjin can only let merchants settle here and do business.
He also knew that he couldn't have it exclusively, so he handed over some of the authority of the merchants to his original gang, that is, the gang that occupied the underground water system.
These rats have never seen the light of day, and the gangs on the ground are not very happy to deal with them, but now they have been whitewashed, no longer sneaky, but are doing legitimate business in the open.
All of this is thanks to the little friendship between Jin Changjin and Li Mi, and it all changed Jin Changjin's life with Li Mi's words!
For the first time, Jin Changjin felt that his life had a purpose and meaning, and he became very diligent, even if it was late at night, he carried a heavy beech stick in his hand and patrolled the riverbank, which had almost become his habit.
The believers who live here are already familiar with him, and they will say hello when they pass by, and some people who are not feeling well, or have other needs, will ask Jin Chang to come in to help, and he can be regarded as the number one person in the capital.
Thinking like this in his heart, Jin Changjin was even more uplifted, and that little bit of sleepiness also dissipated invisibly, and he shook his neck and continued to patrol forward.
When he reached the left side of the river temple, he didn't dare to get too close, the dragon hid under the water during the day, and only came out to eat at night, and they would put a lot of meat in the river temple in the evening.
After nightfall, no one dared to approach the river temple again, and only in the day did they send people in to clean it.
These people all know the rules, Jin Changjin didn't think about it much, and was about to pass by, but found a dark shadow, walking towards the River Temple!
Jin Changjin was also horrified, because he knew that without Li Mi sitting here, Shenlong would eat people at any time, and I don't know what was going on tonight, Shenlong didn't come out to eat, and he was still hungry!
In the past, if the dragon came out to eat, it would extinguish all the lights in the river temple, because the dragon didn't like fire candles, and now the river temple is still lit, which means that the dragon has not eaten.
Jin Changjin has seen too many such things, and it is estimated that this person is also a little thief who does not know whether he is alive or dead, and wants to sneak into the river temple to steal things, but he didn't know in advance that this is the territory of the divine dragon!
Or they knew that it was the temple of the dragon, but they didn't know that it was the dining room of the dragon, and they thought it was the dragon's lair, and there must be a lot of treasure left in it, so they took the risk!
Jin Changjin doesn't care about this, this person doesn't care about his own life or death, if he annoys Shenlong, he is afraid that hundreds of believers on the river beach will suffer!
"Phew! Stop! Stop! ”
Jin Changjin didn't dare to shout loudly, after all, Shenlong was the most sensitive to sound, so he had to lower his voice and anxiously warn, who knew that the person didn't stop!
Jin Changjin didn't care about it, so he chased after it, and the big lantern of the River Temple was like the two eyes of a giant beast, and under the light, he finally saw the figure and face of the person clearly.
The man was not yet thirty years old, and was long and thin, and his face was as pale as a ghost, as pale as a corpse that had been soaked in water for many days.
His lips were black and purple, and his eyes were like black streamers, and he didn't look like a human at all, as if the judge of the underworld had lived in the shell of a scholar!
Jin Changjin finally understood that this was no ordinary thief!
"This ...... In front of me is the Divine Dragon Immortal Cave, but I don't dare to go forward......"
When the man saw Jin Changjin, he also smiled, and teased him: "You little troublemaker has been an uncle for a few days, and your eyes are looking at the sky, and I don't even recognize the master, isn't this begging for death?" ”
Jin Changjin opened his eyes wide, his mind turned, and he became happy, and said to the man: "It turned out to be Suo Ye, it was a villain who was clumsy, and he should be beaten!" ”
There is no doubt that the person who came is Suo Changsheng, and he doesn't want to mess with this animal, but now Li Mi is trapped in the inner palace, and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and the Shenshu camp guards the Qianqing Gate, and several pavilion elders and generals dare not easily mobilize troops and horses, for fear of triggering a greater mutiny, he can only find here.
This animal has been wild for a few years, and he has long denied him Suo Changsheng, only Li Mi, Suo Changsheng wants to bring it into the palace, and let it help conquer the Qianqing Gate, and he really has no bottom in his heart.
However, Li Mi's life and death are big things, but if there is a chance, how can he not give it a try?
"Since you recognize me, let's get out of the way, I have something to talk to Grandpa Shenlong, it doesn't recognize you, so stay away if you don't want to die."
Jin Changjin knew that Suo Changsheng was a friend of Li Mi's side, but he also knew that no one was convinced by Grandpa Shenlong, how could Suo Changsheng get the favor of Grandpa Shenlong when he came over this time!
"Master, this is not a joke, let's wait for Master Li to come......"
Suo Changsheng knew that this little bastard also cared about himself, so he couldn't bear to mock him, so he just shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You, Master Li, I'm afraid that you won't be able to come here for a while, Master, I'm here to find Shenlong, just to save you Master Li, and if you're more interesting, you can drive away all the idle people around you." ”
"To save Master Li? What happened to Li Ye? If it can be used, the villain will die in the soup and fire, and he will not dare to frown! ”
Jin Changjin was also nervous, Suo Changsheng inevitably sighed in his heart, Li Mi was really like a torch, there was no one who looked at people's skills, this Jin Changjin had righteousness, and he also knew that repaying his kindness was indeed not bad.
"Don't get in the way, just help, go get these people away."
As soon as Suo Changsheng said this, Jin Changjin didn't dare to hesitate anymore, after all, if something happened to someone at the level of Li Mi, it would definitely be a big deal, and to put it bluntly, he was just a little bastard in the market, where could he help, he would risk death, but I was afraid that it would be useless.
Seeing that Jin Changjin understood, Suo Changsheng no longer procrastinated, took out a bottle, poured the pill into his mouth, and chewed it like eating beans, the corners of his mouth overflowed with black juice, and he could smell the disgusting fishy smell from afar!
When did Jin Changjin see such a scene, he was stunned for a while, just stunned, but saw that Suo Changsheng's face began to turn black!
His face, hands and feet were all black, as if the skin and flesh were rapidly decaying, the seven orifices were bleeding, every pore was permeated with black mucus full of fishy smell, but the blood vessels turned white, the roots burst out, the hair grew ziziz, the bun was stretched, and it was immediately scattered, but it was like a fish bone, full of hard texture!
Suo Changsheng's throat hissed, and he opened his eyes suddenly, but his eyes were covered with a thin layer of flesh, as if he was blind!
"Suo...... Suo Ye...... What are you...... What's going on! ”
"Let's go." Suo Changsheng was still calm, and it could be seen that the change in his appearance had not changed his mind!
Jin Changjin was still about to ask, but he saw that Suo Changsheng had already begun to walk towards the river beach, walking towards the river step by step, and the river gradually submerged his ankles, knees, waist, and neck, and then completely disappeared into the water!
Jin Changjin was also frightened, although he knew that Li Mi was superb and a living immortal, he didn't know that Suo Changsheng beside him was also like a demon, and he was really a person with great powers!
If it was usual, he would have to run around and chew the root of his tongue, but this time he was silent and didn't dare to make a sound.
After staying on the river beach for a while, Jin Changjin didn't see Suo Changsheng come out again, and said in his heart, didn't he drown in the water?
It's just that he is a flexible mind, he saw Suo Changsheng looking so strange before, and smelled a strong fishy smell, so he didn't dare to question it anymore, and immediately ran up, shouted all the believers camped near the river beach, and quietly moved into the distance.
This busy work is half an hour, after all, these believers have set up sheds here and let them go, for fear that others will seize their positions, one or two need to be persuaded to get through, and it is really cumbersome to move their buttocks as a last resort, and to clean up this and that.
If Jin Changjin was as evil as usual, and he looked vicious, it would be easy to drive away, but these days he almost didn't become a good person, and everyone was smiling and grinning, and people also regarded him as a good talker and good friend, and if he was really angry, these people didn't believe it.
In desperation, Jin Changjin only persuaded a small number of people to talk about it, and he was sweating profusely, and when he looked at the river, it was as silent as death, and there was not even a splash.
Jin Changjin was also disappointed in his heart, he was an immortal, he had been under this water for so long, he should always bubble, could it be that Suo Changsheng really just came to seek a short-term vision and committed suicide by throwing himself into the river?
It's just throwing yourself into the river, and you should have drowned and floated up after so long, right?
However, at this time, a drop of rain began to drip and hit the face, which was especially refreshing!
The rainstorm has also stopped for two days, and it has been stuffy for most of the day today, and it is cool and humid after nightfall, and it is estimated that it should be raining, but it will only fall after Suo Changsheng enters the water, which is too coincidental, right?
Dare not Grandpa Suo really find the underwater Grandpa Shenlong?
