Chapter 285: Legends
After saying that, he ran to the front, facing the river not far away, and immediately knelt down, and bowed with his hands together:
"Lord Long, the little one didn't bother, just passing by to see the old temple, if there is anything offended, please don't be surprised, don't be surprised."
Seeing him like this, I was puzzled for a while, is it really a water dragon, the dragon king?
I told Mr. Yang that no one in the town had talked about the Dragon King for many years.
Even the Dragon King Temple has been demolished, where is there any Dragon King, what else to worship?
"Little Master, in front of the Dragon King, don't talk nonsense, you're going to cause trouble!"
Mr. Yang said, and then immediately knelt down again: "Lord Long, this little master, is not sensible, and he is also unintentional, you must not be surprised." ”
After worshipping and standing up, Mr. Yang said to me with great certainty that the big python I saw before was the incarnation of the Dragon King.
I couldn't help but be a little stunned and asked him what was going on?
Mr. Yang said that no one in the town knew the matter of the Dragon Lord better than him.
Their family has lived in Dragonbone Town for generations, and they know the history of the town best.
Mr. Yang said that his great-grandfather's generation was a fisherman who made a living from fishing, and he had always relied on the waters for food.
One year there was a great drought, the water was running out, all the crops on the shore were dead, and the people of the town saw no hope of survival.
One night, on the way home from fishing, his grandfather met the dragon king's apparition.
Yes, at that time, the dragon lord turned into a white-bearded old man and said to his grandfather: "If you want to survive the dry season and not be starved to death, you must take the boys and girls born in the yin period to sacrifice to the river spirit." ”
So his grandfather spread the word to the town and let everyone have an idea.
In order to avoid calamity, the people of the town after some deliberation prepared the boy and the girl according to the instructions of the dragon king.
But when he was preparing for the sacrifice, a Taoist priest came, and he persuaded everyone that it was absolutely impossible to kill, and that if you want to perform sacrifices, you can be a clay figure instead.
The town is kind-hearted, and it is a last resort to use big living people to sacrifice, and I heard that the Taoist priest can use the clay figure instead, so he asked the Taoist priest to replace the boy and girl with the clay figure.
However, it is said that because of this, the dragon lord became angry.
Many people starved to death that year, and almost all the people in the town died.
It wasn't until later that a feng shui master came, cast a spell to move the water and soil, and soon after, it rained heavily.
There was fish and water in the river, and the rest of the people survived.
Mr. Yang said that his grandfather later saw a huge python in the water, and his grandfather said that it was a "water dragon", which was also the incarnation of the dragon king.
Therefore, the "big python" is the incarnation of the dragon king, and it has been passed down from generation to generation in their family.
Because of the drought that killed many people that year, and there were few original inhabitants left in the town, very few people knew about it.
After listening to Mr. Yang's story, instead of agreeing with him, I vaguely felt that something was wrong in my heart, but I couldn't tell why.
Before, Liu Mo had suspicions, saying that the python might be the one on the coffin of Lao Qing, but now listening to Mr. Yang, it seems that there is nothing to do with the mud man and the python.
On the contrary, it is related to the same Taoist priest, and I feel that the whole thing is obviously very chaotic.
However, this is not the focus of my concern, no matter what the relationship between the mud man and the python is, anyway, all I want is the fairy bone golden seal in the coffin.
As for other irrelevant matters, they can be exempted.
I was secretly thinking in my heart, when I suddenly heard Mr. Yang's scream again:
"Little Master, it's not good, Dongzi, this miscellaneous piece, the corpse has changed!"
Zombie?
Hearing these two words, my body trembled, and I couldn't help but look in the direction of Mr. Yang.
This time, I was also stunned.
Just on the edge of the big river, Dongzi was lying under the river bank like mud, looking extremely weird, as if he was crawling in our direction little by little!
"I can't imagine that we are kind enough to save him, this bastard actually wants to take our lives!"
Mr. Yang tugged at my arm as he spoke, signaling to run.
"No, it's not a corpse!"
I took a closer look and felt that it was not like this, so I said to Mr. Yang: "It will be almost dawn, and there will definitely be no corpse fraud." ”
After saying that, I didn't care about Mr. Yang's expression, so I ran towards the riverbank.
According to the way of yin and yang that I heard from my grandfather before, the matter of defrauding the corpse will never appear after the fifth watch!
My grandfather said that there are two kinds of corpses: one is that the living person holds his breath in his chest, and his life is not over, and the Lord of Yama does not accept it.
The other is the evil qi inducing the corpse, that is, the person is angry after death, or the corpse is caused by the interference of evil things.
But the latter will only appear before the fifth watch.
Therefore, there is no need to fear the appearance of corpse mutations.
I hurried to the bank of the river and called Dongzi a few times, but he lay down motionless.
The whole body was half soaked in the water, half exposed, and the whole body was covered with mud, like a mud figure.
At this time, I noticed that what I had seen earlier was just an illusion caused by the rippling of the river, and at first glance, it really looked like people swimming in the water.
Mr. Yang also gasped at this time and ran over, and he threw a few stones down in a trembling and frightened manner.
Seeing Dongzi lying on the shore without moving, he asked me, "Little master, do you think he is dead or alive?" ”
I shook my head and said, "I'll see if I'm dead or alive."
Mr. Yang was stunned for a moment, looked at the sparkling water, and said, "In my opinion, he was pulled into the water by the Dragon King, and I am afraid that he will not be able to go down." ”
I found that since Mr. Yang mentioned the Dragon King, the whole person has become a little timid.
At this time, I didn't care how much he tried to dissuade him, and immediately climbed down the embankment.
Mr. Yang saw that he couldn't be persuaded anymore, and after standing on it alone for a while, he finally followed with a cower.
I went down to the shore and stepped forward first, trying to pull Dongzi's body.
Mr. Yang suddenly stopped me.
"Little master, wait!"
I looked up in wonder and asked him what was wrong?
Mr. Yang approached me and asked me to come up first, and he said that the rule of going down to the river is to bow first.
If the Dragon Lord is angry because of this, I am afraid that he will suffer.
I didn't think this old gentleman was verbose before, but now that I look at it, it is obvious that he has done something excessive.
If the python is really the dragon king, I fought it just now, how does it love it.
I ignored Mr. Yang, and bent down to pull Dongzi in front of me, but suddenly, under Dongzi's chest, a dark thing suddenly burst out, this time it was very sudden, and I almost sat down with my ass.
"Woo woo......" a few strange screams.
I saw a huge fox, which came out of Dongzi's heart in the blink of an eye, and disappeared in an instant!
What is this situation with Nima?
Could it be that the fox gnaws at people?
When Mr. Yang saw the disappeared fox, his face instantly turned white, and his mouth immediately trembled and said: "Oh no, it's a fox fairy, it's really a fox fairy!" ”
I was also a little surprised at this time, and hurriedly asked Mr. Yang, what did he mean by this fox fairy Shangdao that he had repeatedly mentioned?
