Chapter 14: Escape

[The book continues from the above, and the last book said that the white mist that flickered and fell above the Dianchi Lake brought up a dense spiritual pressure, and instantly cut off the connection between Miaotian Miaoyu and the divine consciousness of other dragon-locking people. After Mu Qingming and Mo Han both sensed this kind of wrongness, they rushed to the sea of grass together, but they didn't see Miaotian and Miaoyu. The demonic qi in the sea of grass suddenly appeared, and the old snake attracted by the demonic qi of Mo Han surfaced again, wanting to attack the demon qi in his body while he was unprepared. In desperation, the water demon jumped out of the reeds again, startled away the old snake and turned away. Mo Han and Mu Qingming hurriedly chased after them, treading on the water without falling, and after chasing into the reeds, they disappeared from the water demon. 】

To the east of the sea of grass, just a step away from Dianchi Lake, the small fishing village where Han Damao's family is located is bathed in the warm sunshine after the afternoon rain. The houses nestled in the bamboo grove and green trees have a precipitated old taste. With the cries of chickens, ducks and geese in the village, there is a little peace and comfort.

After sleeping peacefully all night, Han Damao, who had woken up, sat on his simple bed, and his spirit was already a lot fuller. At this time, he was not staring at the missing bowl of chicken soup in his mother's hand opposite, swallowed his saliva, and said suspiciously: "Mother, where did the old hen come from at home?" ”。

After Mu Qingming eliminated the poisonous blood for him, and after a night's rest, Da Mao finally woke up, but his face was still faintly pale, and he was still weak to speak.

Han's mother, who was very happy in her heart, didn't answer, but just scooped a spoonful of hot soup into the bowl with a small spoon in her hand, handed it to her mouth first, carefully blew the hot air rising from it, and then carefully handed it to her son's mouth.

Han Damao still remembers that since his father capsized and died while fishing on Dianchi Lake a few years ago, their family has been poor. My mother occasionally went fishing, but she didn't do much, and more than ten catties of new live fish and shrimp were taken to the spring city, and they could only be exchanged for a few catties of broken rice for half a day. With financial constraints, they haven't eaten chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep for many years. Even during the Chinese New Year, they can only eat some fish and shrimp caught in the sea of grass, even if they open meat.

Now looking at this coveted chicken soup that made him look forward to it, Han Damao didn't dare to open his mouth, but after swallowing his saliva again, he stretched out his tongue and licked the corners of his chapped lips.

The fragrant chicken soup has made his index fingers move.

"It was the gods who saw us and gave us pity." Seeing that Da Mao was a little hesitant, Han's mother, who knew her son like a mother, suddenly knew that the child was afraid that the chicken soup would come from an unknown source, so she simply explained.

Although Da Mao, this kid is naughty on weekdays, the so-called three days without hitting the house and revealing the tiles is what he is talking about. But this child never steals, nor does he cheat, and lives as a poor man. Now he was worried that this bowl of smooth and refreshing chicken soup full of oil stars was stolen by his mother for him, so he didn't dare to open his mouth to suck on it.

"Don't worry, it's not stolen or stolen." Seeing that there was still suspicion in Da Mao's eyes, Han's mother said again: "You drank chicken soup, and my mother will tell you more about it in the future." ”。

Faced with her son's question, after thinking about it, Han's mother still planned to tell her son about Mu Qingming's rescue, but she would also tell her son not to spread it.

The half-believing Da Mao groaned slightly, thinking that the truth that we don't steal or rob, and that although we are poor, we have ambitions, was taught by the mother opposite, and the mother would definitely not do that kind of bad thing, the worries in his heart disappeared a little, and finally opened his mouth and sucked up the chicken soup in the spoon.

"Da Mao, tell your mother, did you meet the water demon that day?" After giving her son a few sips of chicken soup, Han's mother still couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart and finally asked about it.

Han Damao trembled when he heard this, and his eyes suddenly flashed with a little panic and panic.

The events of that day happened too quickly, and it was too weird and terrifying, especially the water demon's white and puffy cheeks that had been soaked in the lake for a long time, and the dripping black hair, as well as the sharp teeth that showed in his mouth after opening his mouth to the root of his ears, all made Han Damao, who had been in a coma for a long time, still remember it vividly.

The horror that surged from the bottom of his heart like a spring of water appeared on Han Damao's face. Seeing this, Han's mother was also so frightened that her face turned pale in an instant, and her eyes gradually opened up, for fear that her son would be frightened by the terrifying memories in the next second, so that she didn't dare to breathe.

The room fell silent, time stood still for a moment, and the air froze.

"The appearance of that thing is definitely not human, but I don't know if it is a water demon." After stopping for a long time, Han Damao, whose body stopped trembling, lowered his head slightly, stared at the patches with fine stitches on his pants, and recalled that he said thoughtfully to his mother: "The things of that day are like this, a group of us friends went to play in the sea of grass and water............

On the edge of the sea of grass, Mu Qingming frowned even more tightly when he heard this, and then looked at Mo Han who was frowning suspiciously.

The demonic aura is like the breath of other living beings, although it will remain in the place it passes, but it will not last, and the wind and rain will blow it away without a trace. When they arrived last night, they did see a remnant of demonic energy, floating on the surface of the lake, shuttling among the reeds; That's because a day or two ago a water demon passed by and stayed here.

And after the rain before noon, the demon aura that had faded should have been washed away by the rain, and it was blown away by the lake wind, and it was completely gone. But Mo Han was still able to arrive here, and he immediately noticed that there was a demonic aura here, which means that the monster in the lake had come here again today.

Then, Mu Qingming looked as far as Mo Han's eyes could see, and saw a few feet in front of him, standing on the surface of the lake, a very lush reed.

Mu Qing secretly opened his eyes quietly. I saw that among the reeds, there were indeed a few demonic aura, like smoke and mist, slowly emanating from the bundles of slightly yellowed reeds.

This demonic aura is a little cold, like ice water at the bottom of a lake, and like frost. You don't have to get too close to feel the biting coldness that comes out of it.

It's just that neither he nor Mo Han know that this demonic aura is not the demonic aura that Miaotian and Miaoyu saw. Among them, there is no unique fishy smell that only dead fish and shrimp have.

Mu Qingming, who opened his eyes, immediately recognized the demonic aura in front of him at this moment, which was the same as the residual demonic qi he encountered in this place last night, and it was from the so-called water demon mentioned in the rumors. And judging from the fact that the demonic aura was still emanating from the reeds, it was not difficult to see that behind the reeds not far away, there must be a pair of cold eyes looking towards them through the gaps between the reed leaves.

Mu Qingming is not afraid of this monster, he is here for this, and he is also trying to meet this water demon and solve all the mysteries. But Mu Qingming couldn't help muttering in his heart: "Five hundred miles of the vast Dianchi Lake is not narrow, but why did this water demon just target this small fishing village outside the grass?" ”。

In the flash of light, after a little thought, he guessed again, could it be something that the water demon in the village was interested in? Is it alive or dead?

At the same time, he secretly said to Mo Han with his thoughts: "Don't make a noise, wait and see what happens." ”。

Immediately afterwards, Mu Qingming pretended to watch the lake and mountains quietly, and at the same time used his mind to transmit sounds, calling Miaotian and Miaoyu: "Miaotian Miaoyu, where are you?" ”。

As soon as he finished speaking, Miaotian's voice was transmitted through the connection of divine consciousness and thoughts, and entered his mind: "Ah, young master, are we on the ridge? ”。

"What's wrong, young master?" Then Miaoyu's voice also came.

They didn't know that Mu Qingming came here because he couldn't contact them to find out.

And the voices of the two of them suddenly came, which also made Mu Qingming stunned suddenly, his eyes slowly widened, and the look of surprise in his eyes also contained a little bit of joy.

But the joy at this moment also made him and Mo Han's make careless mistakes. Not only did he throw the fact that there was a water demon hiding behind the reeds not far away, but he also didn't realize that not far from him, among the reeds that grew in another piece of water, the old snake was slowly rising from the mud and sand at the bottom of the lake.

The demonic aura emanating from Mo Han's body attracted this old snake to it. It was like a glutton who had seen food, and its red eyes were filled with greed as it looked at Mo Han through the water waves.

When the old man's bulging back gently surfaced and brought a ripple on the surface of the lake, because of the mutual attraction of demonic qi and the innate keen five senses and six senses, Mo Han suddenly noticed its existence.

Startled, Mo Han turned his head to look in the direction where the old snake appeared, and at the same time used his mind to transmit the sound, and said urgently to Mu Qingming, who was still talking to Miaotian Miaoyu: "Another water demon has appeared!" ”。

Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then quickly turned his head, following Mo Han's gaze, towards the place where the old man appeared.

But before he could completely recover from his consternation, the water demon who had been here before had already recklessly flew out of the reeds where he was hiding, and rushed straight to the place where Mu Qingming and Mo Han could see.

Mu Qingming and Mo Han were shocked again, instinctively concentrating, ready to make a move at any time.

The water demon jumped out of the reeds, bringing a strong and powerful gust of wind, and when it made a sharp whistling sound, it also blew the reeds in its pass. The waterfowl that inhabit it panicked and flapped their wings and flew high!

Under the sun, Mu Qingming and Mo Han clearly saw this person who could run on the surface of the lake, his feet did not fall like water, and he walked on the ground like a water demon, just as Han Mu described, was a person with swollen skin and wrinkled skin.

No, it should be said that he is nothing more than human. Because this water demon also carried something like a turtle shell on his back, he also looked like a rickety hunchbacked old man.

The water demon was extremely fast, and soon rushed into the reeds where the old dragon appeared, leaving a series of ripples on the surface of the lake behind him.

But the old snake had already noticed the water demon coming towards it, and before the water demon could take a breath, it had to reluctantly and quickly retract into the water, and in the blink of an eye, it burrowed into the mud and sand at the bottom of the lake, and disappeared.

When the water demon rushed into the reeds, he only saw the turbid water, but there was no trace of the old snake; He was so angry that he smoked and gritted his teeth.

Then the water demon turned his head, and the cold eyes with green light behind the long dripping hair that hung down glanced at the shore, and saw Mo Han and Mu Qingming in his eyes, and also sensed the faint true qi exuded by these two people because of their concentration and qi. True Qi completely concealed the spirit of all things in heaven and earth, but the water demon couldn't help but be secretly surprised, curious about what Mo Han and Mu Qing were all about?

Then, the water demon immediately turned around and rushed towards the reeds from the depths of the even more lush, quiet and peaceful sea of grass, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Where did the water demon flee? Where did the old snake go? Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
