I lay in my room until noon, when there was a little movement and breath from the corner, which woke me up suddenly.

Instantly opened his eyes, jumped up from the bed, and stared into the corner.

The thing that appeared in the corner was also startled by me, and it didn't seem to expect me to make such a move, so it froze in place.

And what I saw was a little snake, and I came back to my senses and remembered what was going on.

Last night, the little snake thought of me, but it was bounced away by the force for no reason, and as a result, it hid aside to recuperate, and then something happened that made me ignore its existence.

"It's you." I breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the floor.

Then, the little snake came back to its senses, and it looked up at me, and a voice of confusion and surprise came from its mouth.

"You just noticed my presence?"

I didn't think much of it, and immediately nodded and replied, "Yes, I thought it was the enemy, which scared me." ”

It asked, "How did you perceive me?" You have never noticed my appearance before, and with your deeds and abilities, I have appeared quietly, and you cannot feel it. ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but be stunned in my heart.

It's a bit odd indeed.

The snake itself is a creature with very little movement, and under normal circumstances, I really can't hear the movement when the baby snake appears, and I don't remember hearing it before.

This time the situation is really a bit special, and I don't know what's going on, how the little snake made such a big move, anyway, I heard it very clearly.

"You were careless, I heard a loud voice." I said.

The little snake shook his head and said, "No, I was the same as before just now, there was no movement, and it was not me who changed, but yourself." ”

"You jumped over the dragon gate, got the baptism of the power of the dragon gate, and you have changed, and now you are afraid that you are not the same as before."

I was slightly stunned, the little snake has not changed, and the problem has appeared to me.

It may indeed be my problem, as he said, that my perception has become sensitive, so that I can hear the movement of the little snake.

Then the little snake said to me, "Come, let me try your way and see how powerful you are now." ”

I didn't refuse, because I also wanted to know how good I could be now, and I felt that I had become stronger, but there was no comparison, and it was still difficult to draw conclusions.

"Okay."

The two of us are not going to war, but to test each other's strength.

The little snake said to me: "Don't use secret arts, just use your strength to attack and suppress me, and don't leave any hands behind." ”

I wouldn't have left it alone.

Although I know that I have become stronger, there is still a certain gap compared to the river gods who have practiced for thousands of years, and this time of sacrifice is not something that will be able to catch up with it for a while.

I gathered all the power in my body, and I worked hard to release all the power.

Suppress the past to the place where the little snake is, and simply suppress it with strength.

Suddenly, all the air in the room was sucked dry, and it surged towards the little snake.

The little snake also released its own power to resist the power released by me, and the two sides formed a situation of confrontation and comparison.

And the state in the room at this time is also very special.

The upper part was hollowed out by my strength and became a vacuum; The lower part contains the power of the little snake, and it can't be shaken at all.

Both of us stopped in moderation and didn't continue, and if we had resisted each other and each of us had stopped, the house would have been overturned.

After regaining its strength, the room slowly returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

However, the little snake became shocked and asked me a little strangely, "Boy, how many years have you been practicing?" ”

I thought for a moment and replied, "Two or three years, the specific time really has to be calculated." ”

The little snake didn't have time to wait for me to calculate, but said: "In two or three years, you can have such power, which is no worse than the guy who has practiced for four or five hundred years." Coupled with the endless hole cards on your body, even against the enemies of thousands of years of Taoism, you can completely deal with it. ”

Four or five hundred years of Taoism? This is already quite impressive.

For youkai and evil spirits, four or five hundred years may not be too long, after all, after they have enlightened their senses, they will embark on the path of cultivation, and their lifespan will increase a lot, and they can live for thousands of years or even longer.

But an ordinary person, no matter how high his Taoism and ability are, he still has more than enough strength in the face of the power of time.

People who can live for more than a hundred years are already extremely rare, and if you want to say that the existence of two or three hundred years old, it is simply an old monster.

Heaven is very fair, giving people innate intelligence and intelligence, but making their lifespan short, not as long as the elves and demons, otherwise the balance between the various species will be completely lost.

I can now have four or five hundred years of Taoism, and it took three or two years to obtain, and I can already be called unprecedented, even those ancient big figures on the Yellow River, such as Ji Yu and the like, may not have such a scenery.

Immersed in excitement and joy, there was no speech.

The little snake opened his mouth to me again and said, "You have really grown up now, and hearing your name in the future may be a great achievement of your work." It's my honor to have a relationship with you. Since I can't take refuge in you in the future, there may be a catastrophe that will befall me, and I don't know if I will survive, so I have to plan for my own affairs. ”

I couldn't help but frown as I listened to its strange words.

"Senior, are you going to do something?"

Little Snake said: "I'm leaving, and as for what I'm going to do, I don't know what I'm going to do." ”

I said again: "You can't be on me, then follow me, if there is really any situation, I will definitely block it for my seniors." ”

"I see what you mean." The little snake nodded, "But it's my calamity, and I can't run away." Besides, I can't leave the Wenshui River for too long, after all, this is my place, as the river god of the Wenshui River, even if I die, I will die in the Wenshui River. ”

The little snake was very pessimistic at this time, and what he said seemed to be explaining the aftermath, and he felt a sadness when he listened to it.

"Did you feel something?" I asked.

It replied, "No." It's just a sigh, but the convention has always been like this, the Nine Dragons coffin caused the turmoil of the Yellow River, like a change of dynasty, once a son of heaven and a courtier, after the turmoil, almost no river gods can survive, and now all our river gods have become river gods after the last Nine Dragons pulled the coffin, and the previous river gods no longer existed, and disappeared silently. ”

This has been the fate of the river gods throughout the ages, and it has always been so.

The little snake didn't know why, but suddenly thought of this, and saw through it so pessimistically, and began to worry about his future.

That's what happened, and it was normal for it to be worried, and I didn't know how to console it.

I had to say: "There are always exceptions to everything, and the predecessors of Ji Ren have their own natural appearance, maybe they will become an exception." ”

"I'll lend you good luck."

The little snake said a word, and then it swam towards me with its tail wagging.

"I'll go look for the dead fish, and I'll leave with it, and I'll not come and say goodbye to you. In the future, if you have any problems, you can go to the major tributaries to find the river gods, and we will help you. ”

The little snake was in such a hurry to leave, which also caught me off guard.

"That's... That... Are you going back to Wenshui River now? Isn't it dangerous? ”

"There is no danger, the Dragon Gate is no longer there, and the Wenshui River will settle down. However, the impact of the power of the Nine Dragons to pull the coffin is still there, and you still need to have the opportunity to stabilize it with the Water Divine Pillar, just don't forget about this matter. ”

"Okay, I remember."

The little snake left me and entered the second room to my right, which was the room of the black carp. And I didn't go along, I don't know what the two of them said.

We don't even know when or how they left, but when we opened the door, there was no sign of them inside, and they had already left.

I have received great benefits from the Dragon Gate, and my strength and body have improved.

But what happened after that, as well as the consequences of the Longmen incident, made me a little unhappy.

Because this incident of Longmen doesn't seem to be a good thing, but calming down makes me feel very uneasy.

The little snake and the black carp left quietly, and there were two fewer people between us, and there may be fewer in the future.

Ji Yun hasn't shown up for a long time, and although I haven't looked for it, he must have been busy with the Longmen Cornerstone matter, and maybe he won't appear again for a long time.

As for the hotel staff, they didn't know where he went, they just knew that they had to take care of us.

Yes, we are responsive.

The only good news is that the situation of the drunkard has improved, and it is really Mo Tianji's means that have played a certain role.

The drunkard in a semi-comatose state woke up in the evening of the next day, and after waking up, he was very energetic, and the tiredness on his face disappeared.

He also said to me.

"It's been years since I've slept so well, and this time I slept so comfortably, I didn't feel anything, it's so good."

After Mo Tianji finished administering the needle, the evil power in the Qi drunkard's body was suppressed, and he didn't wake up at that time because he was too tired and tired, so he fell asleep again at that time.

This sleep is really the same as a normal person, and it is close to a day and a night.

I saw the spirit on the drunkard's face, and I was also happy in my heart, and said a word to him.

"You'll be able to sleep like this every day in the future."

The drunkard looked at me and seemed to have guessed something.

said in a heavy tone: "It must be because of you kid, what method did you use to me, so that the evil power in my body was temporarily suppressed." ”

I glanced at the golden carp next to me, and it seemed that it didn't say what it was to the drunkard, or maybe the drunkard didn't ask.

Now that he asked, I didn't hide it.

said casually: "The master guessed well, it just so happened that a friend from the medicine gate came, and I asked him to give you an injection to temporarily suppress the evil power in your body." ”

"Is it a big girl?" He asked.

I shook my head: "No, it's Mo Tianji, it's someone from the Mo family of Yaomen, you should have heard of his name, right?" ”

The drunkard Qi was still a little surprised, and nodded: "Of course I've heard of it, Mo Tianji, the number one person in the Mo family." When I was very young, this big man on the Yellow River Road retired, and he has been recuperating all these years, which should have become more terrifying, and he also overthrew the medicine gate and became a real person, who doesn't know such a person on the Yellow River. ”

Immediately, he sighed again: "Alas, you have really grown up, you can get acquainted with this person, and you are willing to let him be treated, I'm afraid there are few people on the Yellow River Road who can have such a face." ”

I smiled lightly and didn't say anything more.

Drunkard Qi is in good spirits and has a good attitude towards me, and he didn't reject me like before. The two of us talked for a long time, talking about some things from the past and some interesting things.

The two of them bounced and forgot the time, and before they knew it, a long time had passed.

It was already dark, and the waiter came to us on time to ask if we needed to eat.

They have already prepared food, whether we go back to eat it or not, they will prepare fresh food in advance, and it is almost the same treatment as the emperor before.

I didn't feel hungry, but the drunkard was hungry, and the main thing was that he was going to drink.

"Let's go get something to eat."
