Chapter 7: The Dragon King of the Golden Lake (2)

After the meal, Liu Xing'an proposed that everyone form their own teams to investigate the details of Jinhu Town separately, and prepare for the expulsion and killing of the Dragon King of Jinhu...... No, it's that everyone agrees, and then they are divided into several teams. There are also lone rangers, but Yang Ji is not so arrogant, and he blends into the team of Liu Xing'an, although he doesn't seem to be a good bird, but Yang Ji is not a casual little white.

Liu Xingan led everyone out of the house, hired a local guide with the fifty-two taels of silver that had just arrived, and was amiable to the few newcomers who surrounded him after signing the contract. disdain the few guys who want to pick up the bargain behind them, "The treatment is dangerous, you can throw out one or two guys who don't know what to do in the rear, which can not only deter everyone, but also attract the survivors to sign a contract with me, Meizizi!" ’

"Jinhu Town is ten miles in radius and is one of the towns under the jurisdiction of Donghong City. There are four villages in the town: Dawangzhuang, Xiaowangzhuang, Lizhuang and Taiping Township. The town is dominated by the four major families of Chen, Liu, Wang, and Li, and the Chen family has hereditary sacrifices, and the heads of the families in the past dynasties are said to have direct communication with the Dragon King of Jinhu! Wizard Wu arched his hand in the direction of Jinhu, obviously the Dragon King of Jinhu had a high status in the hearts of the townspeople.

"The Liu family started with medicine, and also runs hotels and restaurants, and is famous! The Wang family is rooted in the big and small Wangzhuang, although the influence in the town is not high, but the people and land under his hands can be regarded as the head of the four! As for the Li family, it is said that it was a bad gambler who was expelled by Li Zhuang before, and he could only get to the position by licking the Chen family's buttocks. There are many scenic spots in Jinhu Town, such as the Zaolongjing, the Jinhu Yinyue, etc., and so on, you are really early and not as good as the coincidental, my family ......" Guide Wu's words were not finished, and he was interrupted by Liu Xing'an.

"Okay, okay, don't sell your business, take us around Jinhu Town, and tell more local anecdotes, and reward you!"

"What you said, guest officer, since you want to hear secrets, then I'll tell you a few big secrets!" Guide Liu looked around left and right, and after confirming that no one was paying attention, he said mysteriously, "The sacrifice of the Chen family is not human!" The Li family often helped the Chen family abduct and sell outsiders to work in their mines, but no one could get out of the mine, not even the bones, which was abnormal! ”

"Well, that's good," Liu Xingan nodded thoughtfully, "What else?" ”

"Also, there's something weird in town! Lao Wu, I'm not bragging, but I've seen it with my own eyes! Three years ago, during the fishing ban period, I secretly went to the lake at night to fish, and vaguely saw a big black shadow under the water, I was so frightened that I hurriedly ran back, and then looked back, good guy, boss a crab! Half a year ago, I went to the field to help, and my stomach hurt halfway, so I went to a distant place to make it easier. Then, ah, I saw a person in the distance, sitting on the edge of the ridge with a screw shell on his back, I rubbed my eyes, and then looked over, and the person was gone! Strange, you say, isn't it strange? ”

"Well, it's quite strange," Liu Xing'an knew in his heart that what Guide Wu saw should be the spirit mentioned in the side quest, that is, the integral self-propelled monster, "What's the last secret?" ”

Guide Wu began to stammer, "Ah, this last secret, well, ah......", Guide Wu rubbed his hands and began to look left and right about it, "I didn't eat enough this morning, my stomach hurts a little, and I don't have any strength!" ”

Liu Xingan sneered twice, and asked for the fifty taels of silver issued by the Liu family from the little fan brother next to him, and stuffed it into the hand of the guide Wu, "Don't be clever for me, be honest!" ”

……

Liu's family, Mrs. Liu's study.

At the banquet, the extremely weak old lady Liu put down the book in his hand and asked Liu Rufeng beside him angrily: "So, these strangers really go to the mountains and rivers?" ”

"Yes, father, these outsiders don't know that they are dying, maybe they should enjoy it one last time before they die, and take our silver and go to Hutianhudi, but don't worry, they all have to come back obediently on the day of the sacrifice, and our Liu family's money is not so easy to get!" Liu Rufeng paused, hesitated for a moment and continued, "However, bastard Wu is a mouthful, will he ......?"

"He didn't dare. Are the guards ready? ”

"The family members have settled down, and the qi has been dissipated, and the child has also invited Donghong Luo Heavenly Master, this time it must be foolproof!"

"Well, yes, although you don't have the talent of Ce'er, but your brain is quite flexible, and after a hundred years, the Liu family will have to rely on you to control it."

"Ce'er's talent is one in a million, the Supreme Elder of the Blood Sword Sect has already accepted him as a disciple, and he has also married his granddaughter to him, this action will inevitably improve Ce'er's sect status!" Liu Rufeng replied ambitiously, as if it was not his son who married every wife, but himself.

"Well, this time the Blood Sword Sect is expanding southward, it will definitely send a capable general, and the South China Sea Dragon Palace will probably also say something, our Liu family wants to show its strength, but don't be stupid and rush to the front, Ce'er is the hope of the family, his mother died early, you can secretly have a few lovers to play, you can't marry into the door, it's not good for Ce'er to be disgusted!"

"Respect my father's teachings!" Liu Rufeng knelt on the ground with his fists clenched, and after getting up, he retreated full.

In the empty study, Mrs. Liu picked up the book and read a few pages, then put it down again, picked up the paperweight on the table and played with it. "Sacrifice Chen, Golden Lake Dragon King, hey ......"

……

"This third secret," the guide Wu stuffed the silver into his bag without a trace, his stomach was full like eating a Snickers bar, and his strength returned, and he continued to talk eloquently, "First of all, I also heard this secret from my grandfather, and I don't guarantee that it is true." The current Golden Lake Dragon King is no longer the Golden Lake Dragon King of the past! ”

"About forty or fifty years ago, the Dragon King of Jinhu often appeared, only asking us to burn incense on weekdays, once a year in the Three Prisons Festival, and the Dragon Boat Race, which was very lively! And suddenly one night, stormy and thundery, someone poked his head out of the window and saw a dragon flying in the sky! Everyone thinks that it is the manifestation of the Dragon King of Jinhu, the incense burning, the kowtow, the kowtow, so lively! ”

"Since that night, although Jinhu Town is still in good weather, but the Dragon King of Jinhu seems to have been transferred, the number of apparitions is getting less and less, everything is conveyed by sacrificing to the Chen family, the dragon boat race has stopped, the Dragon King Temple is closed, this is nothing, but in addition to the original three prisons, began to ask for human sacrifice, every year a pair of boys and girls, with the three prisons to take a small boat to the lake, suddenly sank! The Chen family said that they were going to serve the Dragon King, but I think it should have been eaten by the Dragon Lord together with the three prisons! ”

"In addition to human sacrifice, there is also a bone boat blood fight, after the boat sinks, a bone boat floats, the four major families will send people up to fight one-on-one at this time, if anyone is knocked off the boat, even if it is a fisherman who crosses the Golden Lake on weekdays, there are not even a few bubbles! In the past, there were only five people in the blood fight, but this year it has increased to twenty, I think, you can't survive much after the blood fight. Guide Wu seemed to sigh inwardly.

"How much you can survive, it's not your turn to worry about it!" Immediately, someone retorted loudly, as if to hide the fear in his heart, and his voice trembled slightly.

Liu Xingan waved his hand to stop the complaints of others, and was originally going to say something, but suddenly stared at the guide Wu with a smile, and shouted, "When are you going to hide it!" ”
