Chapter 60: A Stone Turtle
As he spoke, he glanced at Mu Wensong and said, "Mu Wensong, you almost killed him just now." ”
Mu Wensong's ghost stood beside him, looking guilty.
The Ninth Master said: "It's not all because of Mu Wensong, it's also related to Thirteen's physique. ”
At the moment, I was sweating all over, and my short-sleeved T-shirt was getting wet.
The scene of Mu Wensong's murder flashed in my mind, and I said with palpitations:
"Ninth Master, the person who grabbed the sword turned out to be Wang Fugui! After he threatened Mu Xiuping to withdraw his sword, the big python in our village??"
Speaking of this, I couldn't help but be shocked and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
When Mu Wensong's ghost came to me just now, it only left me with a very weak consciousness, and only allowed me to clearly see what happened when he was dying.
I was more or less frightened when I saw everything that happened before he died. I was so weak in consciousness that I neglected one thing.
I remember that two months ago, when the Ninth Master let go of the big python on the dam in Baofeng Temple, the five people who followed Wang Dacai were already dead.
If Wang Fugui took away the iron sword of Zhenjiang, the thing that spoke in Wujiang would be the words of the big python;
So how could Li Er, Li Bin, Zhang Hu, Zhang Jun and Huang Hai be present?
I will see everything I see, and what I wonder. told the ninth master everything.
After hearing this, the ninth master said meaningfully: "Hmph! I came to Tianqiao Township this time to confirm that Liu Ruoxue's arrest was related to him, but I didn't expect that there were other mysteries in it. ”
I said, "Ninth Master, I just heard the sound of Jiangli talking, the same as when the big python spoke, but I didn't see the situation in Jiangzhong clearly. I don't know if it's the python. ”
In fact, Wang Fugui was involved in this matter, and I believe that the thing that talked to him in the river was most likely the big python.
Although I think so in my heart, I still want to know the opinion of the ninth master.
After listening to my words, the ninth master thought for a moment and said, "The thing that speaks in the river is the so-called big python in your mouth. ”
After listening to his words, I already knew in my heart: the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Liu Ruoxue this time was undoubtedly the big python.
When I asked the man in Tsing Yi to speak last night, what the Ninth Master said already hinted at, and tonight he proved it in disguise at the overpass. Therefore, the facts are already obvious.
However, he didn't say why the five dead people could follow Wang Fugui and his son.
After He You left with Mu Wensong's ghost, I asked, "Ninth Master, you haven't told me the reason why those five dead people followed Wang Fugui." ”
The ninth master said: "Don't worry, there will be an answer soon." At this time, we need to go back to the county seat overnight. ”
On the way back to the county seat, I asked the ninth master, it was so late, and we were still going to the county seat, was it related to Liu Ruoxue's matter.
The ninth master said: "It's a little related, but it's not very related." You forgot, didn't I say I was going to help the river god once? ”
I almost forgot about it, he did say that he would help the river god by the way.
The big python has already entered the Wujiang River, and if something happens to the river god, it may have something to do with it.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening when we arrived at the county seat, but instead of immediately looking for a place to stay, we drove straight to the river temple.
An hour ago, we were still in the upper reaches of the Wujiang River, and now we are in the middle reaches.
The river temple is located at the foot of a cliff on the edge of the Wujiang River, which is located on the outskirts of the city and is the closest scenic spot to the city.
This river temple is not big, there is only one main hall, outside the main hall is a small dam, and outside the temple is the Wujiang River.
It is said that a long time ago, the Wujiang River basin was often hit by floods, and our county was the most severely affected area.
Later, a group of people passed by here and told the people that it was to build a river temple to ensure the safety of the water and soil.
So, everyone paid for the Taoist to repair this temple.
It is also strange to say that after the temple was repaired, our county still suffered from occasional floods, but they were all very slight, and the number of disasters was much less.
Most of the local people think that this river temple is apparitional, so people often come to burn incense and paper.
As soon as the ninth master arrived at the dam outside the river temple, he sighed and said, "Fortunately, the incense is strong, otherwise you will not be able to escape the crisis this time." ”
With that, the Ninth Master walked into the only main hall of the River Temple, and I followed behind him.
Entered the temple. The ninth master walked directly to the incense burner in front of the shrine.
Immediately, he took out three sticks of incense from the bag he was carrying, lit them, and after inserting them into the incense burner, he lit a talisman.
Then the words began to be recited, and he read them so fast that I couldn't make out what he was reading.
But soon I found a special place, and I saw that the three incense sticks were burned out quickly.
The Ninth Master said to himself: "I can help you get through this difficulty, but you also have to do one thing for me." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold wind suddenly blew around me.
Immediately, the Ninth Master asked me to go out first and wait for him outside. Although I thought it was strange in my heart, I didn't ask anything and walked out of the temple directly.
It was night at this time, and there was no light around, and after I came out, I couldn't see what the ninth master was doing inside, but I vaguely heard him whispering.
A few minutes later, the Ninth Master walked out, but there seemed to be an extra thing in his hand.
He handed it to me and said, "Thirteen, you keep this." ”
I took a flashlight on my phone and found that it was a small stone turtle.
"Ninth Master. Where did you get this stone turtle? ”
The Ninth Master looked very mysterious and said, "You don't have to worry about where it came from, you just need to keep it." Now bring it back to my shop as soon as possible and place it in the southwest corner of the incense hall. ”
"Then, from twelve o'clock tonight, give it three sticks of incense. When the incense was almost burned, I hurriedly refilled it until dawn when I returned. ”
After listening to the words of the ninth master, I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, according to what he said, he won't go back to town tonight.
Thinking of this, I wondered: "Ninth Master, don't you go back with me?" ”
The ninth master said, "Well, I still have something. You quickly bring this stone turtle back and do as I say. Remember, don't forget to renew the incense. Don't doze off. ”
After Jiu Ye and I arrived at the county seat that night, he left by himself, while I drove to the town alone.
It wasn't long before twelve o'clock, and I didn't dare to delay for a moment on the way, and when I arrived at the store, it was still ten minutes before twelve o'clock.
I can't help but secretly think, my ninth master will really make arrangements, if it is ten minutes late, I am afraid that I will not be able to come back by driving the flying car.
Entered the store,
I quickly took the stone turtle to the incense hall and placed it in the southwest corner, and at the same time took a small incense burner and placed it in front of the stone turtle.
Then I took a large handful of incense and set it aside to prepare.
At twelve o'clock, I took three sticks of incense and lit them and inserted them into the incense burner.
I don't know why the Ninth Master asked me to incense a stone turtle, and I was not allowed to stop halfway.
However, since he arranged it, I just had to do it.
I believe there must be a mystery in this.
I even thought in my heart that maybe this stone turtle has something to do with the river god in the Wujiang River.
In order not to delay things, when I burned incense for the first time, I wrote down the burning time, and then set an alarm clock on my phone.
Then I went back to the couch in the living room and lay down and played a game.
As soon as the alarm clock rang, I hurriedly ran to the incense hall house to change the incense.
But it's a little strange, when the third alarm goes off, I find that the incense has burned to the last position.
But the time I set was obviously in advance, so why was there such a big difference when it came to the third time?
At the same time, I also found a puzzling place, that is, I entered the house twice to change the incense, and the temperature in the house was colder and colder each time.
This can't help but remind me of one thing, when the ninth master helped me find my grandfather's body and came back, I only lit three incense sticks in front of my grandfather's bed, and the temperature in the house suddenly changed a lot.
Tonight is very similar to that time.
It's not a matter that the temperature in the house gets colder, but the worse it gets, the faster the incense burns.
I couldn't help but wonder how they could burn so fast, so fast that I could barely stay in my room.
Later, I directly carried a chair and placed it at the door of the incense hall, and I simply sat here, keeping an eye on the burning of the incense at any time.
I haven't slept all night, and I've been renewing the incense, looking at the incense, renewing the incense, and then looking at the incense?? And so on.
When it was almost dawn the next day, Jiu Ye hurriedly returned to the store.
Seeing the ninth master come back, my tense nerves slowly relaxed.
When he got back to the shop, he told me to close the door.
Even though he hurriedly walked to the Xiangtang House, he asked me to quickly bring a basin of water.
Although I didn't know why, I didn't hesitate at all, and quickly went to find a basin to get a basin of water, and brought it into the incense hall house.
The Ninth Master took the stone turtle and threw it directly into the basin.
I was puzzled by his actions, a stone turtle is just a water basin, can it still swim.
And what happened next in front of me made my jaw drop in shock.
I saw that the stone turtle shook slowly, and then began to swim slowly in the water.
I was so surprised that I pointed to the basin and said:
"Ninth Master, this, what's the situation!"
The ninth master's face was solemn, and he said: "Wujiang River God, he was sealed in this stone turtle with secret techniques. ”
Hearing this, I was even more surprised in my heart, this little stone turtle was able to seal the river god, is there such an exaggeration.
The Ninth Master looked at me and said, "You are like this." Seems a little unbelieving? ”
I smiled and said, "What you say makes sense, but I don't understand it." ”
After I said this, the ninth master's expression froze, and he said, "It's normal that you can't understand, your current magic cultivation is not enough, you will understand in the future." ”
I nodded. said with a serious face: "Ninth Master, then how can he come out of it." ”
The Ninth Master said: "It can swim in this basin, which proves that I have successfully unlocked the seal on his body, and he will come out when he comes." ”
I have an indescribable feeling in my heart that the Ninth Master has brought the Wujiang River God to his store in disguise.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the stone turtle in the basin to break into several pieces, and I saw a wisp of smoke. Floated out of the basin.
When the smoke fell to the ground, it quickly dissolved a figure. I couldn't help but be stunned when I saw the figure.
This figure is clearly the Tsing Yi man we met by the Wujiang River the night before.
I opened my mouth wide, a little incredulous that the person in front of me was actually a river god.
The night before yesterday, the Ninth Master also said that he was a river god who was impersonating.
I glanced at the Ninth Master and said suspiciously:
"Ninth Master, no, isn't this the little brother in Tsing Yi, you said that he was pretending to be that night, will you save the wrong god?"
The Ninth Master said with a calm expression: "The Wujiang River God is him, he can't be wrong." ”
The figure in Tsing Yi soon became more and more obvious in front of us, and finally became a real person.
He looked at the Ninth Master, bowed, and said, "Thank you Ninth Master for coming to the rescue, I didn't expect to meet the Ninth Master after so many years." ”
I feel a little square, it turns out that the ninth master knows this Wujiang river god.
The Ninth Master said with a serious expression: "I will save you, but there are conditions." Last night at the River Temple, you already promised, I won't repeat it. ”
The man in Tsing Yi's expression changed, and said, "Ninth Master, with your ability, do you still need my help to deal with that thing?" ”
The Ninth Master looked at me and said, "This time he kidnapped a person. I had the chips in my hand and I had to be well prepared. I gave him three days, and tomorrow is the last day. ”
The man in Tsing Yi frowned and said, "If he doesn't release him tomorrow, will we do that?" ”
Jiu Ye thought for a while and said, "Not necessarily, letting you help you make a move together is the last resort." You stay in my shop now, and don't go anywhere, lest he find out. ”
Immediately, the Ninth Master pointed to the basin and said, "Come in, you have been sealed for a while, you are still very weak, cultivate as soon as possible." ”
The man in Tsing Yi said hello, and then turned into a wisp of smoke and floated into the basin.
Soon, several stones in the basin were combined to become a stone turtle.
"Thirteen, continue to renew the incense to him, remember that the incense can't be broken."
I couldn't help but wonder, "Ninth Master, can he recover so well?" ”
The Ninth Master said: "Now this room is equivalent to a river temple, and your continuous incense is equivalent to eating to fill your stomach when you are hungry." ”
His analogy made me understand the mystery in an instant, so I didn't ask any more.
The Ninth Master told me not to do anything today, just burn the incense.
I thought to myself: This incense is not easy to burn, I didn't sleep all night last night, and I will definitely be sleepy after a while.
I don't know if it was the first time I changed the incense, but I caught a glimpse of someone entering the store.
When I saw the man clearly, my heart went to my throat.
