CHAPTER XVII
Hearing that Jin Wansheng finished speaking, the masked old man said; "You are verbose in this later life, and I rescued you from the river."
When Jin Wansheng heard this, he immediately stood up, bowed deeply to the old man, and said with both hands in fists; "Thank you for saving my life, but I don't know where we are, I see that there is a rolling river all around, but we are on the island in the middle of the river!"
The old man said; "Exactly."
Jin Wansheng said; "It's dark and the waves are high, and I don't know how we can get back to the riverbank, where my little boat is still tethered."
The old man asked; "What are you doing in a hurry to go back?"
Jin Wansheng said; "Go back and report to the county magistrate."
The old man said; "You were deceived by others, and you were deceived by others, but you forgot the agreement with Miss Atao, it really shouldn't be, it really shouldn't."
In the old man's words, Jin Wansheng was embarrassed, and for a moment, he asked unconsciously; "Why does my husband know this?"
The old man sighed; "In your later life, you have forgotten all about your past life, I can't blame you, I can't blame you."
Between the words, the old man lifted the green cloth covering his face, and without waiting for the old man to say anything, Jin Wansheng recognized him at a glance and hurriedly asked; "You're the fortune teller who won't say goodbye?"
The old man nodded, put down the green cloth covering his face, and Jin Wansheng hugged his fists and saluted; "Please give me advice, sir, how to answer the county governor when I go back."
The old man said; "It's as simple as a county magistrate, there are other people behind him, it's not time to say it, it's only to blame the heavens for favoring you, and the wind and clouds will be on you, how can you avoid it."
Jin Wansheng said; "What my husband said, I really can't understand what I said."
The old man said; "Slowly you'll understand."
Jin Wansheng said; "Please give me advice, how to deal with those guys' poisonous plans when you go back?"
The old man turned around and faced a yellow-horned tree in the middle of the island, Jin Wansheng thought that the old man was unwilling to tell him, so he immediately knelt on his knees and pleaded; "Ask the man of God to teach!"
The river wind was howling, the sky was already dawning, and the old man finally spoke; "You just saved me and helped me escape a catastrophe, how can I not repay the favor, but you have to swear to this rolling river, what I said to you, you are not allowed to say it to the second person, and you are not allowed to say it to the second person in the process of our relationship and acquaintance."
Jin Wansheng knelt on the ground and immediately said; "I think I'm a man who stands up to the sky and the earth in my late life, how can I not speak, I swear, I will never say to the second person about today's matter with my father-in-law, the sky is a lesson, if I say it, the sky will thunder."
Then the old man said again; "That peach blossom source is a fairyland on earth, the fairy garden inside, but it is the place where the flowers of the South China Sea Guanyin flower messenger are located, I don't know how many demons and monsters and restless creatures in this big river, want to go inside to steal the peach wood staff, it is also because you have fate, so you stumbled into it by mistake, but you didn't keep your promise, so you won't find that place again."
After hearing this, Jin Wansheng broke out in a cold sweat and bowed his head and said; "Immortals help me, I really want to see Miss Tao there again."
The old man asked; "Do you know who Miss Tao is?"
Jin Wansheng was not stupid, he received it immediately; "According to the immortals, that Ah Tao girl is definitely not a mortal, so in this way, am I not a toad who wants to eat swan meat?"
Jin Wan was deflated, he stopped talking, the old man muttered for a long time, and then said slowly; "I don't know, I don't know, my way is too shallow, and my cultivation is not enough, maybe..."
The old man wanted to speak and stopped, Jin Wansheng didn't dare to have any more thoughts, his heart immediately cleared, the old man waved his hand, Jin Wansheng stood up, and the old man was cloudy; "Your foundation is very comparable, and your cultivation is not under me, but the time has not yet come, and you can't afford it."
Jin Wansheng had no distracting thoughts, and he didn't care too much about the old man's words, he thought about it alone, and after he went back, he wouldn't drink any weird cactus tea, and see what they could do to me?
The old man saw through his thoughts on the sidelines, and said; "How can there be only one poisonous plan of the demons, it is really impossible to prevent it, as long as there is a mind, how can you be afraid of those ghost tricks, think what else can that old turtle do!"
The old man said it clearly, Jin Wansheng remembered to understand, there is no need to elaborate, the county slaughter must be behind the old turtle, whatever, Lao Tzu wants to see what other means you have.
Suddenly, Jin Wansheng's arrogance rose, and his obscurity fell, in front of him, the surging river, around, whirring river wind, unconsciously, the glow of the sun, facing the morning glow, Jin Wansheng stood up, wanted to go back, the old man also got up, but it was about the same height as sitting down, he stretched out his hand, paused, rolled his eyes, and finally took out a piece of scale armor from his arms, only the size of his palm, and said to him; "You have some guts in this later life, God has let me form an indissoluble bond with you again, okay, I will obey the will of heaven once, but it depends on your creation, you come here, I ask you, do you want to go back?"
Jin Wansheng nodded, and the old man said; "You lie on it."
Jin Wansheng saw that the old man only had a palm-sized scale armor in his hand, and couldn't help but ask; "How can you lie down on me?"
The old man said; "Courage, I want you to tread the waves and chase the waves, and you are all in your mind between breathing and breathing, you have just swallowed my water avoidance pearl, and you can walk under the water without me teaching you, and now I will give you a small piece of the scale armor on your body, presumably you can rest for two hours, isn't it a great benefit."
Jin Wansheng listened to the old man's words, and immediately strode into the river, and the old man dropped the scale armor and said; "Get on your stomach."
Jin Wansheng jumped up, looked at the scale armor, and pressed it steadily, and the old man also entered the river and said to Jin Wansheng; "I'll give you a ride."
Jin Wansheng glanced at the old man and suddenly asked; "God-man honorific name?"
The old man smiled and said; "A kid who doesn't know a big word, but he was born with a crepe, providence, providence, tell you, old man, my surname is turtle, turtle's turtle, large turtle world, your kid and I have a deep fate, otherwise, last night's thunder and lightning will take me away, now it's okay, I can be free in this river again."
Turtle Tianxia and Jin Wansheng floated in the river together, Jin Wansheng's hands and feet did not move, but the river supported him to float freely in it, Jin Wansheng only then knew the wonderful use of the scales, he was about to say something grateful, but Gui Tianxia spoke first; "Boy, don't get carried away, don't be greedy, from today on, you can't catch more than 30 catties of fish every day, and if you catch a mother fish and small fish fry, you must be released back into the river, remember my words?"
"Okay, I remember." Jin Wansheng replied very happily, he just wanted to ask the turtle world, can we be together often? But he saw the turtle world raise his hand and point forward; "Go back, boy, where are the prisons and the Killer Sticks waiting for you?"
Jin Wansheng raised his eyes and looked into the distance, but the old man was gone, not far from him, Jin Wansheng clearly saw a whirlpool blowing in the river, and the swirl nest changed from large to small, and gradually a layer of waves appeared on the river surface.
Jin Wansheng still has a lot of questions to ask the turtle world, but people have no choice but to leave him, Jin Wansheng buried most of his body in the river, gently paddling the river with his feet, immediately, he is like a fish, stinging and slipping forward, the feeling of flying, the river has no resistance, only thrust, he can soar on the water at will, can jump up more than a foot between his arms, Jin Wansheng is grateful to the turtle world, I really want to see him again.
Jin Wansheng walked forward on the waves, following the river breeze, and a voice faintly reached his ears; "Jin Wansheng, where are you?"
Listening to the voice, it was like Zhao Ada, Jin Wansheng wanted to open his throat and shout at the bank of the river; "I'm here, I'm riding the waves,"
Zhang Yang is not his character, and he doesn't want those two poor people to know the ability he just got, so although Jin Wansheng's mouth was open, he swallowed back the words he wanted to shout, and after closing his mouth, he thought again, why don't I try the armor, and forget to use it when I get it, Jin Wansheng turned his back to the sky, and was rushed forward by the river a little bit, he felt as light as a swallow, and felt that he was just a leaf of duckweed, let the water drift, let the waves hit, there is still to breathe, there is no need to hold his breath, it is more appropriate to say that he is a piece of wood.
Jin Wansheng floated on the surface of the river, and was washed to the shore by the river little by little, and the voice calling for him became stronger and stronger; "Ah Sheng, where are you?"
"Jin Wansheng, where are you kid hiding, don't get out quickly, save grandpa trouble."
It was the shouting of the poor people, Jin Wansheng was unconsciously angry, he was about to make a fool of the two poor people, when he suddenly heard a buzzing sound from under him; "Don't be rash, don't covet glory and wealth, keep the poor, cherish the grass and trees, the opportunity may come, go, it's not necessarily a bad thing to tribulate."
Jin Wansheng promised repeatedly, and the voice under him suddenly disappeared, Jin Wansheng had an idea, and when the people on the shore saw him, he deliberately pedaled and scraped, pretending to be struggling in the water.
"Look, there's a man floating down the river."
It was clearly the voice of Zhao Ah shouting, Jin Wansheng heard it, immediately closed his eyes, and pretended to faint again.
Wow, boom, the river slapped on the shore, Jin Wansheng was washed to the shore, Zhao A ran wildly, and when he got closer, he picked up Jin Wansheng with both hands, and was in a hurry, first put his ear on Jin Wansheng's heart, and then touched his snort, and then shouted; "He's alive."
When the words fell, Zhao Adaa carried Jin Wansheng on his shoulder, snorted and beat his back, Jin Lada was afraid that Zhao Ada, so he let out a sigh of relief, and then asked; "Where am I?"
Zhao Ada, when he heard Jin Wansheng speak, hurriedly put him down, let him lie flat on the ground, and said to him; "Brother Late Sheng, you are finally alive, how far that gust of wind blew you out, your life is so big, you actually floated down from the upstream."
Jin Wansheng just wanted to say that you don't panic, I have nothing to do, but when he saw that the two poor people were also surrounding him, he immediately muttered softly; "Well, why are we here?"
