Chapter 5 is full of discussion

[The book continues from the above, and the last book said that Mrs. Qi came to the courtyard of the Mu family and offered a high salary to hire Mu Qingming to go to the Qi family's warehouse to be a steward. At this time, a group of children in the fishing village by the Dianchi Lake went to swim in the sea of grass and play. I didn't think I was having fun when a pair of green eyes quietly floated out of the water and hid in the reeds, secretly watching the children playing in the shallows. Led out Mu Qingming went to work on the jade dragon pile the next day, and only after following Sha Weng into the warehouse, he saw the guys in the warehouse, all gathered in the courtyard, talking with relish about yesterday's Dianchi Lake, the water demon haunted and frightened the children, and then fled, leaving a lot of blood in the lake. 】

Like clear jasper, under the clear blue sky, in the sea of grass in the north of Dianchi Lake, those cattails and reeds dotted on the surface of the lake are swaying left and right under the wind of Xixi Lake.

The children from the nearby fishing villages are still playing in the water by the lake, and their hearty laughter echoes through the reeds and cattails.

The green eyes, still hidden behind the dense reeds, were still staring intently at the children in the distance in front of them, chasing each other and laughing under the splash.

The wind blows the reeds, and the clear and sweet water of Dianchi Lake gently surges.

Hidden in the reeds, the round blue eyes were embedded in a thin, wrinkled and pale face, and a long black hair dripping slowly on the head. Her long, silky hair covered most of her ugly face, leaving only her eyes exposed.

In this way, it makes these eyes that exude green glow look even more hideous.

And in the bright sun, those eyes didn't even have a little bit of temperature. There was infinite coldness in the green mang, like two pieces of green ice hidden behind the reeds. As long as you look at each other, you will definitely feel like you are falling into an ice cave, which makes the person who looks at you tremble, and even the two rows of teeth in your mouth will tremble up and down.

It's just that the children were busy playing and playing, and the eyes were well hidden, so no one noticed or noticed the eyes in the reeds.

Just as the children were having more and more fun, a few strings of bubbles suddenly rose in the water under the lake not far to the south, and slowly tumbled up from the swaying green water and grass to the surface.

A large grinding disc, shaped like a pot lid, slowly rises from the dense aquatic plants in the water with a few strings of bubbles. The object was only slightly raised, and its rounded back rose to the surface of the water. The yellowish-gray tip with small nostrils and a short snout was still hidden in the water, and through the swaying waves, it also looked towards the group of playful children.

From the appearance of the object, and its gentle stroke under the water, with the thickness of a child's thighs and webbed between the toes at the top, it is not difficult to see that this is a beast that resembles an old turtle.

It's just that the old turtle has four legs, but this thing only has three legs, one in the front and two in the back. If Mu Qingming and the others were here, they would definitely be able to recognize it at a glance, this thing is mentioned in the ancient books, and only the south has a dragon.

From its flattened body as large as a millstone, it is not difficult to see that this dragon is not two or three hundred years old, but also four or five hundred years old.

It's an old aquatic creature.

The blue eyes that had just appeared, and the blue eyes that had emerged before it finally moved away from the children, and immediately looked towards the old turtle.

At the same time, a bloodthirsty and ferocious light flashed in the old turtle's eyes!

As soon as the fierce light dissipated, the snake suddenly sucked its mouth and sucked a mouthful of lake water into its mouth. Immediately after, the crossbow-shaped crossbow that it had in its mouth flicked, and the lake water that it held in its mouth immediately shot out, and the lake water that gathered but did not disperse into a column of water shot towards a boy in the distance in front of him like an arrow from the string.

"Whew!" With a sharp thud, it shot forward, piercing through all the reeds and cattails in its path. A moment after the slender column of water had shot forward, the pierced reeds and cattails broke apart with a small snap.

The creature with a pair of green flashing eyes, the ears hidden under the long hair moved in unison, and suddenly after the heart jumped suddenly, Huo Ran got up and drilled out of the water, and when the water splashed in the reeds, this thing had already jumped forward on tiptoe, like a little water dragonfly flying against the water surface, leaving a string of ripples behind him, and in a blink of an eye, he rushed to the child who was targeted by the water column, and stopped the child in his arms after turning around.

The jet of water that shot out was impartially on the big green eyes and bulging back like a turtle shell at this moment. Like a sharp long arrow, it instantly pierced the shoulder blade of this thing with a breaking sound.

Red blood, splashing in the bright sun. The pungent gore spread out with the cool lake breeze.

The children's laughter came to an abrupt end, and the old snake slowly sank into the water, and disappeared in a blink of an eye after sinking into the dense aquatic weeds.

The other children were stunned for a moment, and looked at the creature with a pair of glittering blue eyes, and the child who was saved by this thing also raised his head at this time, staring blankly at the creature that saved him.

The look of panic still lingered in his eyes.

I saw that this thing was very similar to a person, but the body was very tall. Even if his knees were slightly bent, he was much taller than the child he had saved, and the shadow cast on his body completely enveloped the child. And the whole body* of this thing, the soaked wrinkled skin is almost visible in the sun, and every inch of skin is soaked by the lake water as pale as paper. His slender arms, which were longer than his knees, were as thin as his legs, but there were only four fingers on the palms of his hands, and a thick layer of webbing between them.

And on his clumsy back, he still carried a carapace like a turtle's back, shining in the sun.

"Are you alright?" A hoarse voice rang out from the face of the thing, whose shoulder blades were still dripping blood. He slowly let go of the child in his arms, and raised his hand to pull away the long hair that hung down in front of his face, revealing his wrinkled pale cheeks.

When the rescued child's eyes widened in horror, his throat seemed to be blocked by a foreign object, and his lips were slightly opened but unable to speak, the monster's face with a flat nose, the big mouth like a human mouth slowly opened, and the corners of the mouth stopped in front of the ear, revealing eight fangs like scimitars and swords that were born up and down the mouth as red as blood, and shimmered with a cold cold glow in the bright afternoon sun.

The child's eyes were full of fear, and his limbs were trembling.

"Ah......h In a short time, the children were like frightened birds, scrambling to crawl ashore, grabbing the clothes and shoes scattered on the ground, and running away from the lake in a panic.

Only the monster was left standing alone in the waist-high reeds, watching the back of the child leaving in a hurry, listening to the heart-rending screams that were still resounding through the heavens and the earth, raising his hand to cover the wound on his shoulder blade that was still dripping blood, and sighed helplessly......

In the early morning of the next day, before the morning dew dissipated, Mu Qingming, who had already eaten breakfast, stood in the small courtyard with a lazy waist, and after taking a deep breath of fresh air, the sadness of the meal disappeared instantly.

Today is the day he is going to work at the Qi family's warehouse on the jade dragon pile; Originally, Mrs. Qi wanted him to rest for a few days before going to work, and his salary would not be reduced. But Mu Qingming had already been favored by others, and he couldn't take advantage of it shamelessly, so he decided to go to work immediately.

"Buckle this button." Mo Han, who had caught up, stood opposite him and helped Mu Qingming button up the button on the round neck of the robe.

"What do you want to eat at noon, I'll send it over after you make it." After buttoning the buttons, Mo Han asked, and Mu Qingming put down the rolled up uninlaid cuffs.

"No need today, I haven't eaten the food in the caravan store, so let's eat with the guys today." Mu Qingming shook his head slightly, and said slowly: "I want to eat Yiliang roast duck in the afternoon, authentic, I don't eat inauthentic, I don't eat too fat, it must be the kind of fat and thin, the skin is crispy and the inside is fragrant and tender." ”。

"Stop talking, okay, go buy it with me Miaoyu in the afternoon." After helping him tidy up his clothes, Mo Han smiled.

"Gone." Mu Qingming said as he bypassed her and walked towards the gate.

As soon as the door opened, I saw that Sha Weng, who had followed Mrs. Qi to visit yesterday, was already standing quietly outside the door and waiting. He will take Mu Qingming to the warehouse on the jade dragon pile.

"Young Master Mu, it's early." Seeing him come out, Sha Weng smiled slightly and greeted Mu Qingming.

"You're early, too, have you had breakfast?" Mu Qingming asked casually after closing the door.

"After eating, let's go." Sha Weng nodded and said, and walked towards the entrance of the alley with Mu Qing meditating.

In the autumn of Shala Alley, although there are no evil spirits, it is still a little shady. The courtyard walls and houses on both sides block out the rising sun, casting a large shadow that envelops the entire alley, bringing a chill.

Walking in the shadowy alleys, Sha Weng always had the feeling of chilling his spine, and he couldn't help but shudder, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "How did Young Master Mu find such a place to live?" ”。

After walking for a while, he finally came out of the alley, and Shaon, bathed in the morning light, felt even warmer gradually. He took Mu Qingming and continued to move forward, walking towards the side of the green lake.

The two walked back and forth for a while, and finally came to the jade dragon pile, and Sha Weng led him to a warehouse on a slope with ease, and pushed the door in without saying hello.

As soon as the door opened, a smell of horses came to my face, and then I saw that all the men in the warehouse had gathered in the corner of the courtyard, and then gathered in a group of middle-aged men with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and asked in a gossiping voice: "Is what you said true?" ”。

"What does that water demon look like?"

"Did you really appear on the other side of the sea of grass?"

When Mu Qingming heard this, he was suddenly stunned and thought in his heart: "Water demon? What water monster? ”。 Thinking of this, he had followed Sha Weng into the courtyard, but he listened attentively to the young man's words: "Of course it's true, I heard this morning that the water demon appeared in the sea of grass yesterday, and now the people on the waterway in Kunming City (referring to the people who rely on the water to eat and drive boats) know about it." The water demon looked like a human being, but it carried a turtle shell on its back, which frightened a few children playing in the sea of grass. By the time the children had run home, the adults had disappeared from the water demon when they arrived at the grassy sea, but there was still a lot of blood left on the shore. ”。

The people around suddenly took a breath of cold air and were at a loss.

Is the water demon good or bad? Will Mu Qingming be curious? Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
