Chapter 61: The River God

Huaiqing got up and rubbed his head, and Bai Zhi asked with concern: "Is the Taoist chief a headache after drinking too much wine?" Bai Zhi turned around and brought a bowl of hangover soup: "It's okay, the head won't hurt after drinking it." ”

Huai Qing sneered, why did his head hurt, because of what pain, would she not know?

Bai Zhi obviously didn't know, and she was bent on flattering the gold lord who woke up, serving tea and water, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and Huaiqing's heart was as cold as ice.

These two masters and servants, one is vicious and vicious, the other is hypocritical and greedy for money, and the two go together, which is simply a evil star that plagues the world.

Huaiqing got up and patted the dust of his robe: "No need, this decanting soup is still left for your son-in-law to drink." ”

Bai Zhi raised her head, and this Xuan Shen Dao Elder didn't seem to be very happy.

Bai Zhi looked at Nanqiang, who was sleeping on the bed, and was a little worried: "Alas...... It was said that he was our gold master, and the young lady didn't know how to let go. ”

The rainy days in Xuzhou City continued, and it took two days to enter Xuzhou City, and the weather was sunny for less than an hour.

Nanqiang stayed in the inn for two days, stuffy and moldy, sitting in the lobby eating and listening to the guests say some strange things, Huaiqing locked himself in the door every day after drinking.

Nanqiang thought that Huaiqing had suffered a loss and did not meet to meet people.

Nanqiang listened to the people at the table next to him talk about the fox fairy hooking the soul in Hedong Village, Xuzhou City, a handful of peanuts and a pot of wine, and listened to it with relish, Bai Zhi listened to it with a burst of red and a burst of blue, when it came to the scary place, the storyteller suddenly sighed, and Bai Zhi shrank in fright.

Nanqiang saw that Bai Zhi was so scared that he wanted to continue listening, and chuckled.

Huaiqing saw Nanqiang listening to things here outside the door of the wing room, and helped the hair crown before coming down.

Huaiqing's buttocks were not yet hot, and the old man next to him said melancholy: "It has rained for so long this year, I'm afraid that the river god will be unhappy again." ”

The old man's words were not loud, but the faces of the people in the hall changed suddenly after listening to this sentence, and the lobby that was still lively just now was quiet and could listen carefully to a needle.

Nanqiang followed his gaze, and the old man knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly lowered his head, picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

Huaiqing was in this depressing atmosphere, and suddenly shouted: "Shopkeeper, a pot of wine, and a few snacks." ”

Huaiqing's untimely voice eased the atmosphere in the hall slightly.

The shopkeeper glanced at the man, and the man replied loudly: "Okay! Guest, please wait. ”

Nanqiang glanced around, turned his head sideways and asked the side table: "Brother Tai, this river ......"

Huaiqing pulled Nanqiang back and stuffed Nanqiang with a mouthful of peanuts.

Nanqiang raised his eyebrows and stared at Huaiqing, who glanced at Nanqiang angrily.

"If you don't want to cause trouble, you don't talk much."

Bai Zhi nodded inexplicably: "Childe, I don't think it's appropriate to ask more." ”

Soon, the old man put on a hat, took an oil-paper umbrella and hurried out of the inn.

Nanqiang felt bored, and as soon as Huaiqing returned to the wing room after eating, Nanqiang blocked the door of Huaiqing's room: "Why can't this river god mention it?" ”

Huaiqing unceremoniously pushed Nanqiang into the house, if Huaiqing could kick him with his foot, he would definitely not be polite.

Huaiqing blocked Bai Zhi from the door: "I have important matters to discuss with your son-in-law, you are here to guard well, and you can't let outsiders get close to half a step." ”

Before Bai Zhi could say anything, the door slammed on her nose, and Bai Zhi covered her nose and cursed in a low voice.

Nanqiang looked at Huaiqing's house, where the astrolabe was placed on the windowsill table, and there was a treasure bag hanging next to the bed.

Nanqiang looked back at Huaiqing: "Could it be that there is really a river god in this Xuzhou City?" ”

Nanqiang looked like a young master I didn't believe it, full of banter.

Huaiqing sat across, poured two teas, and looked solemn: "Xuzhou City is different from Xuncheng, the matter of the river god, you must remember not to get involved, otherwise your life will be difficult to protect." ”

Huaiqing's face was pale, and he was cold, and he didn't have the appearance of being angry in the stream on weekdays, but it made people a little difficult to get close to.

"I'm so dignified, what are you doing in it, the master is just curious and asked."

Huaiqing raised his eyes, and his inky eyes seemed to be a bottomless pool.

"You just need to remember that if you break the rules of Xuzhou City, you will not be able to fly in Xuzhou City."

Nanqiang didn't answer, and the sound of rain outside the house hit the banana leaves, and the sound was in my ears.

Nanqiang snorted: "Got it." ”

Bai Zhi, who was lying outside the door, didn't hear anything, saw Nanqiang come out with a blank face, and asked a bunch of questions, but didn't ask anything.

Nanqiang instructed Bai Zhi to inquire about the city and river god of Xuzhou, and Bai Zhi went for two hours to inquire about the news.

Nanqiang fidgeted in the room, thinking of Huaiqing's attitude, he felt more and more that something had happened to Bai Zhi.

When Nanqiang was getting up, Bai Zhi ran back wet.

Bai Zhi dried her body, hid in the quilt, drank ginger soup, and eased her nerves.

"Did you find anything?" Nanqiang slightly dislikes Angelica dahurica.

Bai Zhi saw Nanqiang's disgusted eyes and muttered: "The slave maid has put a lot of thought into this matter in order to find out about it. ”

Bai Zhi pretended to stretch out her head mysteriously and whispered: "It turns out that the fact that this Xuzhou City used boys and girls to sacrifice to the river god is really not a rumor. If the river floods during the heavy rain season, the people of the city will throw the selected boys and girls into the river to sacrifice to the river god, calm the anger of the river god, pray that the river will recede, and protect the water and soil of the people of the city. ”
