Chapter 1561: Sending the River God Home
The two rode fast horses and left Taojiazhuang, and on horseback were Liu Wei and Wang Zhen, who had changed into civilian clothes.
Soon after they left the village, nearly 100 horses left the village.
Far behind the two of them out of the village were the ninety-five palace guards that Liu Wei had brought to Taojiazhuang, and on the back of some palace guards, there was also a young man about fourteen or fifteen years old who carried simple weapons.
The palace guards all had solemn faces, and the young men sitting behind them also had a little more maturity on their faces.
None of them had ever seen that Dao Jun of Hundred Flowers, but the young people had heard of it, and that Dao Jun had great powers.
"Have you ever heard about that Hundred Flowers Daojun?" With a young man on horseback, a guard asked the young man a question as he galloped his horse.
"I've heard of some!" Sitting behind the guard, the young man almost shouted: "I heard that he has obtained some heavenly books, but he can scatter beans into soldiers and call for wind and rain, and he is quite capable!" ”
"Scatter beans into soldiers, call for wind and rain!" Listening to the young man's shouting, the guard said with disdain: "There are such characters, but we have never heard of them!" ”
The boy didn't say anything more.
The rumors in the countryside always exaggerate some things invisibly, and the young man only told the rumors in the countryside, and he really hadn't seen the methods of that Baihua Daojun.
The guards took the young people in the village and galloped all the way, for fear of being thrown away by Liu Wei and Wang Zhen.
Liu Wei and Wang Zhen rode their horses in front, and the two of them were paying attention to the situation in Xiaoheoi along the way.
Although the river is not deep, the surface of the river is very clean, and there is no driftwood or debris blocking the river.
The creek is very smooth without debris, and even if there are still corpses, it must have flowed downstream.
"What do you think of those corpses?" While riding forward, Liu Wei asked Wang Zhen beside him.
"His Majesty also believed in Yu Ji in his early years, why did he doubt this Hundred Flowers Dao Jun?" did not answer Liu Wei, but Wang Zhen asked him a rhetorical question.
Smiling slightly, Liu Wei said to Wang Zhen: "But all Taoist people are also divided into many categories. Yu Ji's meeting is nothing more than numerological calculations and some medical tricks! This Hundred Flowers Dao Monarch, I feel that I am quite powerful. ”
"The ability is great, and it can be used by His Majesty." Liu Wei's words made Wang Zhen even more puzzled, and then asked him: "Why does Your Majesty have more concerns about this kind of person?" ”
"I don't have many worries!" Looking ahead, Liu Wei rode his horse forward, and said to Wang Zhen: "What I am worried about is that this person has other plans, which may be unfavorable to the world. However, those who go around recruiting disciples under the banner of going home are mostly those who do not care about the lives and deaths of others for their own selfish interests. If I really find out that those corpses are related to this Hundred Flowers Dao Monarch, his good days will come to an end! ”
In the end, Liu Wei's tone was gloomy.
From the tone of his voice, Wang Zhen heard that he had already moved his killing intent, and secretly sweated for the Hundred Flowers Daojun.
If Baihua Daojun was just swaggering and deceiving some wealth, maybe Liu Wei would not have killed him.
But if he hurts people's lives, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to die if he wants to die!
Walking up the small river, about thirty miles, Liu Bianli grabbed his horse and looked around.
There was an empty space everywhere, there were no villages at all, and there was no place suitable for cultivating at home.
Liu Wei even had some doubts that they had already left, or if they had not arrived at the place at all!
"Surrounded by mountains, where is there any trace of the Hundred Flowers Daojun?" Looking around, Wang Zhen's face was also dazed, his brows were tightly locked, and he muttered something as if talking to himself.
Liu Wei's eyes also scanned the surroundings, the mountains were vast everywhere, and as far as the eye could see, it was a verdant mountain forest, which really didn't look like someone had opened an altar here.
"Go a little further!" Raising his hand and pointing forward, Liu Wei said to Wang Zhen: "I didn't find any Taoist priests setting up altars along the way, maybe I don't know if the two of us haven't arrived!" ”
Wang Zhen responded, and both of them gently clamped their legs towards the horse's belly, and rode the horse on.
After walking for more than a mile, Liu Wei suddenly reined in the war horse, raised his hand and pointed forward, and said to Wang Zhen: "You see that there are many people gathered in front of you?" ”
Following the direction of Liu Wei's finger, Wang Zhen looked forward, and sure enough, he saw many people clustered on the river in front of him.
Seeing this scene, Wang Zhen frowned slightly, and said to Liu Wei: "If you go down to the river to fish, everyone will guard one place, it is impossible to be so crowded, I think it is what happened by the river." ”
"Let's take a look!" Greeting Wang Zhen, Liu Wei rode his horse to the river where many people had gathered.
Seeing that he left first, Wang Zhen hurriedly followed.
The two of them rushed one after the other towards the river, where many people were gathered.
Seeing that he was about to reach the front of the crowd, Liu Wei's brows gradually twisted.
He clearly saw that in a clearing in the middle of the crowd, there were two kneeling men, a man and a woman.
Both of them were tied up with five flowers, and they looked panicked, looking at the people who surrounded them with fear.
If these two people were adults, Liu Wei would not feel anything, the closer he walked, the clearer Liu Wei saw that the two people who were tied up were both thirteen or fourteen-year-old teenagers.
Adults secretly hooked up to do something unseemly, and were found immersed in the river, and Liu Wei had also heard of it.
But teenagers who are only thirteen or fourteen years old, even if they are asked to do something, I am afraid they will not understand too much.
Hooked up and tied up and thrown into the river?
It doesn't look like it at all!
What made Liu Wei even more puzzled was that in front of the two teenagers who were tied up, there was still a person who looked like a warlock.
The man had a long sword in his hand, and he was waving it wildly, and he was saying something in his mouth.
Liu Wei and Wang Zhen, who hadn't yet understood what was going on, couldn't step forward to stop them, and rode out of the crowd.
The crowd around the river, men and women, all craned their necks and looked into the middle of the crowd.
"What is this doing?" Seeing the warlock-like figure waving his long sword in the crowd and chanting a mantra like a spell, Liu Wei whispered to a man on the side.
"Daojun opened the eyes of heaven and said that the river god was angry recently and wanted a sacrifice!" Looking up at Liu Wei who was riding a horse, the man whispered: "The two teenagers who were tied up were used to worship the river god." ”
"Why do you want a man and a woman?" The man's answer made Liu Wei even more puzzled, and he asked again.
"There are two river gods, one male and one female." As if he despised the question raised by Liu Wei, the man glanced at him and said, "It's appropriate to have a man and a woman to pay tribute!" ”
"The river god is also a man and a woman, so are they husband and wife?" Blinking his eyes twice, Liu Wei deliberately raised his voice a little higher and said: "It seems that these two couples are both dissatisfied with their desires, and they are still thinking about a pair of virgin men and women, do they want to find a small one for each of them and give the original marriage to Hugh!" ”
Liu Wei's words made Wang Zhen on the side laugh out loud, but it made the warlock who was wielding a long sword in the middle of the crowd stop moving.
Furrowed, the warlock raised his long sword, pointed at Liu Wei, and asked in a tone of pretending to be a ghost, "Who are you waiting for?" Dare to rush into the gods to enjoy the tribute? ”
"Are you a male or female river god?" Turning over and getting off the horse, Liu Wei separated the crowd and walked to the warlock, tilting his head to look at him.
"This god is the male god of the river!"
"Just your appearance is still a male god......" After carefully examining the warlock's appearance, Liu Wei almost burst out laughing, and asked him, "What about your wife?" ”
"Waiting at home!"
"Don't you think the boy and boy are too old and look so close?" Pointing at the two teenagers who were tied up in the shape of twisted flowers, a man and a woman, Liu Wei said to the warlock: "If you want to train playthings, you have to cultivate them from an early age. You have a problem with the way you choose tribute. ”
Liu Wei said such a sentence, which made Wang Zhen, who squeezed into the crowd with him, stunned.
The two young men who were kneeling were old, and they still felt that they were ordinary, so didn't they give the warlock who pretended to be a god and a ghost, and asked him to exchange it for a better tribute?
"As a river god, you don't even pick a tribute, don't you think it's too embarrassing?" Before the warlock could answer, Liu Wei asked him a question.
His eyes rolled, and the warlock said to Liu Wei: "What you said is reasonable, and let them go, and look for another tribute." ”
"It will take time to find tribute!" The warlock was about to arrange for the onlookers to look for a new tribute, when Liu Wei said to him again: "Aren't you worried about the anxiety of the lady and the others? ”
When he asked this, the warlock was immediately stunned.
Blinking his eyes twice, he looked at Liu Wei blankly and said, "Then what do you mean!" ”
"Find someone, go and inform your wife, and ask her to wait a little longer!" Almost without thinking about it, Liu Wei came up with such a sentence.
He was right, and the warlock could not argue with it, so he said, "Then throw the man and the woman into the river, and ask them to go and inform the lady......
"Wait!" Just as someone was about to throw a man and a woman who were tied up into the river, Liu Wei hurriedly stopped them.
"Through the river god, you still need to be able to go back and forth!" Glancing at the two bound teenagers, Liu Wei said, "Otherwise, how would I know if they brought the words?" ”
Stunned by Liu Wei's question, the warlock blinked his eyes quickly, but he didn't know how to respond to him.
"Since you are the god of the river, you must be free to come and go in this little river!" Pointing to the river, Liu Wei said to the warlock: "It's just that the river is too shallow, and I want you to tie up the tribute, but I am also worried that they will struggle to get to the shore!" It's normal to have such concerns. ”
"What are you going to do?" From Liu Wei's words, the warlock heard some not-so-good meanings, and asked him vigilantly.
"The road to your own home, you know it better!" Liu Wei's face suddenly fell, and he said to Wang Zhen on the side: "Wang Zhen, send the river god home!" ”
