Chapter Ninety-Eight: Dingjiang Spear
Just as I took out the herring stone from the body of the big herring, Uncle Ji also surfaced with a Dingjiang spear, and a few big carp were stuffed in the net pocket around his waist.
"Lao Xiao, you have a good mouth today, you just caught a perch." Uncle Ji climbed to the shore and pointed to the net pocket with fish on his waist and said with a smile, and then took out a perch of about a pound from the net pocket and put it on the ground.
Old man Xiao's eyes were straight, he swallowed his saliva and said with a smile: "I really haven't eaten sea bass for many years!" ”
"People come and go on the river, but they love the beauty of sea bass. Since ancient times, many people have been intoxicated by the delicious taste of sea bass. Jiang Yimeng smiled and squatted down to observe the perch that was pierced by the Dingjiang spear.
"How should I eat this sea bass? I'm a little hungry when I hear you say that. "I've never eaten sea bass, but I've always longed for the legendary taste of sea bass.
"Of course, the sea bass is the best steamed! The old ghost's kung fu of steaming sea bass is top-notch! Old ghost, I haven't tasted your craft in years, so it's your turn to perform well today, right? Old man Xiao patted Uncle Ji on the shoulder.
"Haha! It's rare that you still remember the taste of my steamed sea bass! You've come from afar, and I'm sure I won't let you cook! As the saying goes, it's fun to have friends from afar. How can I say that I also want to do my best to be a landlord! Uncle Ji wiped the water droplets on his face with his clothes and said with a laugh.
"Alright, let's go back! Otherwise, it will take too long and it will affect the taste of the sea bass! Old man Xiao turned his head and walked towards Uncle Ji's house on the slope.
"What about this big herring? Is it just thrown here? I pointed to the corpse of the big herring and shouted at Old Man Xiao.
"There's a herring stone in its body! Let's take it out first! That's a good thing! Besides, this herring fish is so big, the herring stone in the body must not be small. Uncle Ji pulled out the Dingjiang spear inserted in the ground and prepared to walk towards the corpse of the big herring.
"Uncle Ji, I have already taken out the herring stone. Look, here it is! I hurriedly took out the herring stone I had just taken out and handed it to Uncle Ji.
"Haha! I didn't expect to be the first to be taken by your kid. Keep it for yourself! I want this thing to be useless, and besides, this kind of thing is easier for me to obtain than an ordinary stone. "Uncle Ji pushed my hand back and asked me to keep the herring stone by myself.
Also, for a Yin River spiritual official who lives by the Yellow River all year round, a few pieces of herring stone are really nothing. But for me, it's extremely rare.
After all, the herring fish that grows herring stone in its body is huge, and it has to live for a long time. And the largest herring fish I usually see is only about ten catties, but the herring in front of me is enough to weigh 100 catties.
"Boy, come and help. Help me throw the herring carcass back into the water! After all, it grows in water, and its afterlife should also be in water. Besides, it is most appropriate to throw it in the river and let the fish and shrimp eat it, after all, it is a pity to bury it. Uncle Ji glanced at the corpse of the big herring and said calmly. It seems that this hundred-pound herring is just a common fish for him.
Uncle Ji and I pushed the carcass of the big herring to the shore with all our might, and then we saw Uncle Ji kick the carcass of the big herring down the river.
With a "pop" sound, the huge waves soaked our clothes as we stood on the shore. The body of the big herring disappeared from the water in an instant.
From time to time, some blood and sediment gushed up at the bottom of the river, and it seemed that the carcass of the great herring had attracted other predators.
At this time, the surface of the water is like boiling water, and strings of bubbles are pouring up from the water to the surface, and the river water is becoming more and more turbid.
"Let's go! The herring carcass is almost finished, and it's time for us to go back to eating. Uncle Ji looked at me and smiled.
"Hmmm! Uncle Ji, let's go! I nodded, turned my head and kept up with Uncle Ji.
"Uncle Ji, I heard Lao Xiao say that the black spear in your hand is called the Dingjiang spear, right? It must have a lot of origins, right?" I asked curiously as I looked at the spear in Uncle Ji's hand.
"That's right, it's Dingjiang spear. The spear was two meters long and black. It was forged by the first generation of Yinhe Spirit Officers by fusing extraterrestrial meteorite iron with bronze. Sharp and abnormal, this spear has killed countless monsters, the evil aura on the spear is very compelling, it can restrain all the monsters hidden under the water. However, the Dingjiang spear is in my hands, and it is indeed a bit tyrannical. Because I usually use it as a harpoon to catch fish. Hehehehehe! Uncle Ji touched the back of his head a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly.
"Uncle Ji, can you let me take it for a while?" I looked at Uncle Ji with a blank eye, hoping to feel this Dingjiang spear with the ability to set the river.
"Haha! All right! It's up to you to take it or not. Uncle Ji smiled and handed me the Dingjiang spear.
I hurriedly reached out and took the Dingjiang spear, only to feel a cold breath pass from the spear body into my hand, and then to the brain, and then to the limbs.
Even though it's hot, I still feel cold, and a cold air runs through my body, like falling into an ice hole.
The Dingjiang spear looked no different from an ordinary spear except that it was black all over, but I was surprised by the unusual heaviness.
"I didn't expect such a spear to be so heavy! I see Uncle Ji, you are very flexible when you use it. Is it because you're used to it? I held the Dingjiang spear in both hands and looked at Uncle Ji curiously.
"It's only sixty pounds, it's not too heavy! After all, it was forged with extraterrestrial meteorite fused with bronze, and it was normal to be a little heavier. I think it's just right for me! Uncle Ji turned his head to me as he walked.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at Uncle Ji's house. Because I was holding the Dingjiang spear in both hands, my hands were already sore and weak at this time. So I leaned it on my shoulder and prepared to carry it back.
"Hahahaha! I'll take it myself! Uncle Ji smiled and picked up the Dingjiang spear from my shoulder with one hand, and skillfully played a spear in his hand.
"As a qualified Yin River Spirit Officer, physical strength and water nature are indispensable, followed by magic. Every Yinhe Lingguan will have the most suitable weapon, my weapon is the Dingjiang spear that has been inherited for thousands of years, and the weapon of my wife is two bronze daggers, known as the Yin and Yang Water Separation Blade, which is forged from the leftovers of forging the Dingjiang spear. It's a pity that one of them has been given to your master Wang Heling as a token of love by him. Uncle Ji easily pinched the Dingjiang spear with one hand and walked into the house, and I followed closely behind.
"Dividing the water? Bronze dagger?" I looked at Uncle Ji curiously, and suddenly remembered that my weapon was a bronze dagger. Could it be one of the water splitters?
Thinking of this, I hurriedly took out the bronze dagger on my waist and handed it to Uncle Ji: "Uncle Ji, do you think this is it?" ”
"Huh! It's really uh. Wife, come out quickly! Take out your Yin and Yang Water Dividing Blade too! Uncle Ji took my bronze dagger and looked at it, his eyes lit up with excitement. hurriedly shouted to Aunt Ji, who was preparing a meal in the house.
"The old immortal, it's almost time to eat, why are you looking at it? Hurry up and help in the kitchen! "Aunt Ji is busy in full swing, where is there time to come out! So he shouted angrily.
"Hey, hey! The old woman is angry! I'll come over right away to help. Uncle Ji looked at the bronze dagger again, and then inserted it into the shark skin sheath around my waist.
"You guys sit down for a moment, and I'll help out in the kitchen. Meals were ready right away. Uncle Ji smiled and walked to the kitchen.
"Don't forget your specialty, steamed sea bass!" Old man Xiao stopped Uncle Ji, who was about to enter the kitchen, and threw a cigarette over with a smile.
"I quit smoking, and you give me cigarettes. You're afraid you want the old woman to pluck my ears, right? Uncle Ji caught the cigarette thrown by Old Man Xiao and smiled helplessly.
"I haven't seen you for many years, but I didn't expect you to be more and more afraid of your wife now, hehehehe!" Old man Xiao said sarcastically.
Uncle Ji was about to explain, but was dragged into the kitchen by an ear by a hand stretched out from the kitchen.
"What? Do you still dare to smoke?" Aunt Ji's angry voice came from the kitchen, followed by a crackling sound.
After a long time, Uncle Ji's frightened voice sounded: "Old woman, I really don't smoke!" It's all to blame for Lao Xiao, who has to throw the cigarette to me. I don't believe you to ask him! ”
"Ask a fart! Hurry up and cook! Are you waiting for me to come? As soon as Aunt Ji's words fell, the crackling sound came again.
Old man Xiao heard a crackling sound coming from the kitchen, and showed a wicked smile: "Boy, you must marry a gentle wife in the future, otherwise you will be worse than your Uncle Ji!" After speaking, he looked at Jiang Yimeng, who was sitting next to me.
I also turned my head to look at Jiang Yimeng next to me, just as I was about to speak. There was a sudden heart-piercing pain in my thigh, and it turned out that Jiang Yimeng was pinching my thigh with his hand.
"Lao Wang, do you say I'm gentle?" Jiang Yimeng pinched me hard, and asked me with a smile as if nothing had happened.
"Ugh! This one.... When I was thinking about how to answer, the force in Jiang Yimeng's hand increased a little more
"What? Is it still so long to think about such a simple question? Jiang Yimeng still looked at me with a smile and asked, but the strength in his hand was getting heavier and heavier.
"Oops! I say, I say. You're the gentleest, you're as gentle as a marshmallow, and even when I talk to you, I seem to be melted. "I can only rack my brains and come up with some sweet words to deal with her, or the flesh on my legs will definitely be pulled off.
"Really? You're not fooling me, are you? Still, I like it, hee-hee-hee. Jiang Yimeng smiled and let go of the hand that was pinching me.
I quickly rubbed it on the pinched area, and the pain told me that the piece should have been pinched purple by her.
"Does it hurt? Then I'll tap it next time! Jiang Yimeng leaned next to me and said with a smile.
"Huh? And next time? I stood up in horror and sat down next to Old Man Xiao, trying to stay away from her.
