Lu Hao nodded, drank a cup of tea, and lay down on the kang to rest. In the middle of the night, the sound of a woman crying sounded in the next room.

Lu Hao perked up, sat up, and listened carefully.

"Don't cry, it's not good for the guy next door to hear it." A man's voice.

"Our daughter, tomorrow is going to sacrifice to the river god, can I not cry!" Woman's voice.

"There's no way, who let that river god be powerful, we can't afford to offend!"

"These men are all waste, and they can't even deal with a river god, causing the whole village children to suffer."

"Shhhh

"Woo, my precious daughter, life is so hard."

Lu Hao heard the conversation between the two and somewhat understood, the tribute that the river god wanted was not only pigs, cattle and sheep, but also children. When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help, this is the belief that Lu Hao adheres to. Lu Hao didn't say anything, lying on the kang and pretending to sleep.

In the dead of night, a demonic wind blew outside, rolling up dust and flying all over the sky. The cats and dogs in the village were frightened by the demon wind, and they all hid in their dens, not daring to come out.

Lu Hao climbed out of the window and came to the street, only to see the demon wind circling the village, and then flying in the southwest direction.

Lu Hao realized that the monster in the demon wind was the river god messenger in the mouth of the villagers. Tomorrow there will be a sacrificial ceremony, and the river god will send messengers to the village to inquire about the news.

Lu Hao jumped a few times, came to the roof, and found that the demon wind disappeared into the night sky. Lu Hao hesitated for a moment and chased after him.

There was a big river ahead, rushing and roaring, the waves rolling, and the demonic wind fell on the river, gradually dispersing.

A graceful, seductive woman appeared. The woman was dressed in red, and a hideous serpent was embroidered on it.

The woman's lips are red and her teeth are white, her skin is delicate, and her snake eyes are quite terrifying. The woman sneered, looked around, saw that no one was following, and plunged headlong into the river, making a large splash.

When Lu Hao came to the river, the woman was gone. The river is tumbling and the water is turbulent.

Lu Hao looked at the big river and saw that the river was hundreds of meters wide, and there were half-meter-high waves rolling on it, which was extremely dangerous. Without a boat, there is no way to cross the river.

After crossing this river and walking 400 miles forward, Shaanxi Province is located.

Lu Hao realized that this was the Qingming River, and the river god feared by the villagers lived in it. Lu Hao didn't startle the snake, the river god had an advantage in the water, and if he rushed in, his life would be in danger.

For now, the only way to do this is to return to the village and wait quietly.

If the river god wants to eat tribute, he must leave the Qingming River, and that is a good opportunity to start.

Lu Hao's face sank, turned around and left the Qingming River, and returned to the village.

After returning to the village, Lu Hao ran into an old man. The old man was dressed in coarse cloth, with white hair and squinted eyes, which was very strange.

The old man stopped Lu Hao and asked, "Young man, what did you do just now?" ”

Lu Hao said: "It's okay to be idle, go out and take a walk." ”

"I should have gone to the Qingming River." The old man seems to know everything.

Lu Hao was surprised: "How do you know?" ”

The old man pretended to be mysterious and said: "The Qingming River is very dangerous, don't go in the future." ”

Lu Hao said confidently: "There are monsters in the Qingming River, and they like to eat people." As a Taoist priest of Maoshan Mountain, I can't sit idly by. ”

"If you're nosy, you'll die." The old man advised him.

Lu Haoyi said righteously: "I am a cultivator, and I have the responsibility to kill demons and eliminate harm for the people. Even if I die, I am worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth. ”

"What a Maoshan Taoist, courageous." The old man coughed and turned away.

Lu Hao looked at his back, puzzled, who was this old man, and why did he know that he had gone to Qingming River?

………………………………

Qingming River, under the water.

A palace made of stone, very simple, not as simple as the mansions of wealthy families. At the entrance of the palace, there were two guards, armed with harpoons, with the head of a fish and the body of a man.

The beautiful woman who disappeared before appeared at the door and walked into the palace. The beauty walked lightly and quickly entered the palace.

There are several large stones in the palace, shining brightly, illuminating the whole hall as bright as day.

A strong man sat on a stone chair, closed his eyes and recuperated, suddenly, opened his eyes, and said with a smile: "Beauty, you're back, but what's the news?" ”

The beautiful woman walked over and said with a smile: "King, those villagers are as timid as rats, and they dare not resist you. ”

"The beauty is right, when the king roars, those untouchables are so frightened that they pee their pants." The strong man is the god of the river, and he looks vicious, like a barbarian bandit.

"King, what arrangements do you have for tomorrow's tribute?" The beautiful woman snuggled in the arms of the strong man with a sweet smile.

The river god stroked the beautiful woman's hair and said, "Tomorrow's virgin boys and girls, I will eat virgins and eat virgins." ”

"King, it's not a good arrangement." The beauty said.

"What's wrong, it's me woman, you should enjoy it with me."

The beauty reminded: "If these two brothers know about this, I'm afraid they won't agree." ”

"What are you afraid of, I am the river god of Qingming River, they are all my subordinates, whoever dares to disobey, I will kill him."

"Your kindness to me, King." The beauty had a happy face.

"As the ancients said, brothers are like clothes, women are like siblings, of course I am going to hurt." The river god laughed, hugged the beauty, and kissed it.

"Report that the king, the second king, and the third king are here." A carp spirit walked in and said.

"What are they doing at such a late hour?" The river god asked.

The carp spirit said, "The two kings said that they would come to discuss the sacrifice tomorrow. ”

The beauty exclaimed, "Oh no, the two brothers must have come for tomorrow's tribute." ”

"Rest assured, the king is free. Let's go back to my room and warm up the bed, and when I send the two fools away, I'll look for them. He looked confused, and had long forgotten the relationship between brothers.

The beauty smiled coquettishly and left the hall. After a while, two burly men walked in side by side.

The river god stood up and said with a smile: "Two virtuous brothers, visiting late at night, what is the matter with looking for my brother?" ”

"Big brother, the sacrificial ceremony will be held tomorrow, I don't know what the arrangements are?" The man on the left asked.

The river god smiled and said, "I don't have to go to the sacrificial ceremony tomorrow, I can go myself." ”

The man on the right asked, "Big brother, if we don't go, how will this tribute be distributed?" ”

"Rest assured, the tribute is indispensable. The two virtuous brothers, stay in the river with peace of mind, and the elder brother will not treat them badly. It's getting late, let's go back and rest. "The river god is duplicitous.

The two men glanced at each other and said in unison: "Brother is doing things, brothers don't worry." The words fell, and the two left the main hall.

"Two fools." The river god smiled secretly and returned to the room, where he found the beauty lying naked on the bed, seducing herself.

"King, but you're back, you want me to die." The lazy posture of the beauty makes people uncontrollable.

"Beauty, let me wait for a long time." The river god laughed, pounced, and kissed him.

The beauty asked, "My lord, do those two brothers have any complaints?" ”

"My two brothers are stupid, stupid, and have no complaints." The river god smug.

"Great King, when we eat ninety-nine pairs of virgin men and women, we can cultivate into the Infinite Law Body, and when the time comes, we will soar through the clouds and fog, go to the heavens and the earth, and be so happy." The beauty is very yearning for a better life in the future.

"Infinite Law Body, it's a bit difficult." The river god frowned.

"The boat goes to the riverhead Freedom Road, we don't have to worry, anyway, there are many boys and girls. King, the Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold. The beauty lay down and showed a hot body.

"Peony flowers die, and ghosts are also romantic!" The river god laughed and pounced.
