Chapter 70: The Story of the Turtle God
The goblins that grow in the water are fundamentally different from those on the shore. These aquatic elves rarely come into contact with people, and they are even more ferocious, more like beasts.
This turtle ghost saw that Mr. Na Peng was carrying two long knives and slashed at it, but he didn't dodge it! Before, he was entangled with the tiger underwater, and when he went ashore, he was also played by the tiger, and the injured animal was also angry at this time. Mr. Peng's attack inspired the viciousness of this monster.
The turtle ghost twisted away, and its chest turned upside down, turning its face in the direction of the turtle shell. It then opened its hands, as if it was the posture of us swatting mosquitoes and flies, and it was about to slap Mr. Peng in mid-air!
Mr. Peng had a good idea to fight, and wanted to take advantage of his unpreparedness to defeat the enemy, but how could he have thought that this monster's clumsy body could be twisted like this at will? But Mr. Peng is also an old man, how can he exhaust his strength and not leave a move?
The monster was about to grasp Mr. Peng between his two claws, and suddenly a huge python sprang out from the thick mist that enveloped Mr. Peng, and propped it up between the two claws of the turtle ghost. The turtle ghost also had a lot of strength, and the strange python only lasted for a moment, and then turned into mist and dissipated.
Although the strange python only held on for a moment, Mr. Peng took the opportunity to successfully get out, raised two long knives, and slashed at the monster. The turtle ghost also knew that his fate was hanging by a thread at this time, so he took back all the long hair on his head and wrapped his head and face tightly.
Mr. Peng's two knives slashed into the heavy hair, spreading out layers of hair, but it was difficult to hurt the root of the turtle ghost. The two knives in Mr. Peng's hand were like feet trapped in sticky muddy water, wrapped in this hair, and every inch downward, it took more strength, and it was not much easier to draw the knife upwards than to slash downwards.
After just such a while, Mr. Peng couldn't advance or retreat, and the turtle ghost also released his hands and slapped his head and face.
As mentioned earlier, the turtle ghost has a small head and broad shoulders and short arms. The strange python that it had conjured up in the mist around Mr. Peng's body in front of it had already been reluctant, and now it wanted to grab Mr. Peng, who was slashing on his head, but it was beyond the reach of the whip.
The goblin scratched a few times and never touched a single hair of Mr. Peng, but he went crazy with anger. It didn't care to grab Mr. Peng with its hands, and directly shook its humanoid body violently, trying to throw Mr. Peng off his head and shoulders.
This thing is not small, and when it shakes, it shakes a bit like the mountains. The upper body of the human body shook violently, but the turtle-shaped four legs dug deeper into the earth. This really hurt Mr. Peng. He was already standing on the head and shoulders of this monster, and the turtle ghost had already wrapped his head tightly with his hair, making it difficult for him to start, and now it shook violently, making it even more difficult to stand firmly.
For a while, the two sides fell into a stalemate like this - Mr. Peng couldn't help this turtle ghost for a while; This turtle ghost can't get rid of Mr. Peng.
Just as Mr. Peng once pulled out his knife and wanted to hit the idea of the goblin's chest and abdomen, he heard Huzi shouting: "Master, get out of the way!" ”
Mr. Peng raised his eyes, Peng Huzi jumped high, and the palm of his right hand held a half-human-sized dark blue fireball, on which the ghost face was forested, and the illusion of white bones loomed. At this time, Mr. Peng was quite frightened, and hurriedly dispersed his magical powers, let the pair of Jiao change back to its original appearance, and then stepped on the shoulder of the turtle ghost and jumped back, hiding far away.
The turtle ghost sensed that Mr. Peng was no longer on him, probably thinking that he was shaking back and forth to make Mr. Peng unstable after all, and he was shaken off, that is, to untie the hair wrapped around his head and face. But as soon as it showed half of its face, Huzi's spell hit the turtle ghost's head!
The ghost fire scurried on the head of the turtle ghost, and the flames rose to a foot high, and the scene of demons dancing in the flames could be faintly seen. It burned the turtle ghost in pain, and it howled heartbreakingly!
The hair of the turtle ghost is afraid of fire, and the tiger can get out of the yin fire under the water, and now it is more effective when it comes to the shore, without the help of the lake, the turtle ghost is unable to extinguish the flame for a while, but in a moment, the hair has been burned. But the yin fire was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, entangled in the head and face of the turtle ghost, and spread to the turtle ghost's chest and abdomen.
The turtle ghost was in pain, and hurried to escape back into the water. But where is the earth like the water? This turtle ghost is so big in size, as soon as it goes down, half of its legs are stuck in the mud, and it doesn't look like it can use any magic power to tread water in the water, but on the way back to the lake, there is no sound, and the four legs are bent, and the abdominal armor is stuck to the ground.
"So...... Is it the end of it? Huzi scratched his head, he didn't expect this goblin to be so easy to clean up, "This is not good!" I haven't come up with any real skills, sir. It's a shame that this goblin has grown such a big body, it turns out that he is strong on the outside. ”
"Who are you, master?" Huzi was elated, but Mr. Peng asked coldly, so frightened that Huzi honestly shrunk his neck, and he was as well-behaved as a quail, and he didn't have the flamboyant appearance of Shicai.
This turtle ghost, the bones can be used to build a house, which can be regarded as extremely rare! Almost everyone by the lake, seeing it from a distance, seemed to be settled, so they hurried back to the lake to see the excitement, so Zhao Yueyue is still a fourteen-year-old yellow-haired girl, where can they stop them? In a short time, it was crowded with people, some who lived by the lake, others who hurried from the village after hearing the news.
The most anxious thing is Sister-in-law Dong, whose children are still lying unconscious on the kang. So the woman who peed her pants saw that the turtle was silent, and she also squeezed through the crowd and walked over: "Mr. Peng, how is my child?" ”
Mr. Peng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at the turtle ghost whose face had been burned beyond recognition, and with a long sigh: "Your child's life is worry-free, but I'm afraid I can't save the lost soul." ”
The sister-in-law Dong didn't seem to hear clearly, and asked again: "Mr. Peng, what are you talking about?" ”
Huzi interjected impatiently: "My master said that your son's fever must have subsided, but we dare not guarantee anything else." ”
Mr. Peng took Huzi's words: "I never thought it would be so tricky at first, ordinary water ghosts can go home if they do a magic event. But who would have thought it was a turtle ghost? This evil creature not only grabs souls, but also 'eats' them. It is the most sensitive to yang energy and will capture living spirits in water. This is also why the snake fairy failed to lead it out, but it was Huzi who led such an evil thing. Sister-in-law Dong, you ...... Leave it to fate. ”
"Where do you want me to leave it to my fate?" Sister-in-law Dong exploded this time, "How much silver do you want me to give you to save my child?" My wretched child...... I'm only twelve years old, and I'm so stupid, it's because of you black-hearted gods...... Folks, you give me a review, why can't you save my family's children if you take my family's money? ”
This sister-in-law Dong was also sad, and she sat on the ground and cried, which attracted the persuasion of the people around her, and neither did she help.
Huzi is already dressed here. He threw his braid around his neck, walked to Sister-in-law Dong and squatted down, staring at her. The sister-in-law Dong also saw the child's skills from a distance, and she didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so she had to put her hands on her chest: "You...... What are you going to do? ”
Huzi patted Sister-in-law Dong's shoulder and said, "Auntie, you feel your conscience and say that my master and I can be regarded as risking our lives, but have we ever asked you for a penny beforehand?" ”
Sister-in-law Dong moved her ass and rubbed it back on the ground: "No...... No. ”
"Then don't be innocent," Huzi stood up and dusted his hands, "We are just mortal monks, not Daluo immortals. If you had asked us to see if you had fished people up by the water yesterday, we would have been able to save them, but your son's soul had gone into the elf's belly, and it would have been too much for you to ask us to do. ”
Sister-in-law Dong didn't reply, still bowing her head and wiping her tears. Mr. Peng spoke: "We cut this monster, so that it can't worry about the wisp of soul that your son is still on, even if it is benevolent and righteous, I don't want this incense money from you, if there is anything in the future, don't ask me again." There are also other immortals and monks in Changtu Mansion, and they are not bad for me. ”
Zhao Yueyue took over the conversation: "Sister Hu in my hall told me, and I won't talk to your family anymore." ”
Where did "Sister Hu" come from? Huzi only felt a chill, and in his eyes, what was speaking to Zhao Yueyue was a fox squatting on her shoulder-Hu Chuanwen. As soon as he thought that Hu Chuanwen was originally the soul of Tian Lihu, the delicate voice, the twisted style, and the appearance of a big man, Huzi had goosebumps all over his body.
But while he was talking, an old man walked up to the turtle spirit and sighed: "This thing really exists!" ”
Mr. Peng was thinking about how to deal with the corpse of this turtle ghost, but Huzi and Zhao Yueyue were inquisitive and asked the old man for advice. Zhao Yueyue walked up to the old man and raised her head and asked, "Grandpa, do you know that there is this thing in this lake?" ”
The old man touched Zhao Yueyue's head and said, "This is a story I heard when I was a child......
Legend has it that there is such an old king and eight spirits in this lamb lake, who protects the farmland and water conservancy of Sun Mountain and blesses the wind and rain. I just like to sleep, and I have been sleeping for more than 100 years, and every time I wake up, I will turn into a human form and go to this village to ask for something to eat. Every household should bring out their best wine and food to greet and entertain, otherwise it will anger the turtle god and bring disaster.
Later, I don't know how to let the people outside know, a liar found a person with a congenital disability and a particularly small head to pretend to be a turtle god, and told him to carry a big cauldron, and cheat from door to door to eat and drink, and even eat and take. Doing something bad in this village. But after all, paper can't contain the fire, and the matter is revealed, but the man escaped early with the disabled child.
Since then, the people of the village have hated this little man dressed as a camel.
That year, another thief with a hunchback entered the village and knocked on the door from house to house. This man has a smooth head, broad shoulders and a small head, nostrils turned up like a pig's nose, and a pair of bean eyes are very funny. He didn't speak when he knocked on the door, just stared blankly at the person in the door.
The family was all scolded and blasted out. But the camel was not annoyed, and still knocked on the door of the next house. When the people of the village learned that such a camel was coming, many of them pulled a piece of mud from the ground and pasted it on the man, and the foul language in his mouth was incessant.
But an old woman couldn't stand it anymore and scolded: "This person was born unsatisfactory, and you still treat him like this, but you just want to eat a mouthful, where do you want to do this?" So saying, he took the man back to his house, and prepared hot porridge and some pasta. The camel did not thank him, but took it and ate it, and when he had eaten it, he turned around and left.
And the good deeds saw the camel coming out of the mother-in-law's house, and fell behind it, and then hurled insults. But I saw that the camel had gone to the edge of the lake and disappeared.
The next day, all the wells in the village went up with water, crossed the threshold, and hit the edge of the kang, but the old woman's family was fine. The villagers suddenly realized that this time they had really offended the gods, and begged their grandfather to sue their grandmother, and made a festival and offered many things, which could be regarded as calming the anger of the turtle god.
Zhao Yueyue just listened to this story for fun, but Huzi didn't think so: "That turtle spirit has been in this water for so long, why did it harm people when it was nearby?" I've played in the water before and I've never seen anything like it. ”
While talking here, someone did shout over there: "It's small! It's small! ”
Looking in the direction the man was pointing, Huzi looked up. It turned out that he didn't feel it when he stood next to him, but he could see it really in the distance, this Wang Bajing was really getting smaller and smaller, and after a while, he turned into an ordinary Wang Ba, and he didn't see his hair and body anymore. Although it has changed a little and has shown its original shape, there are still cars that are very small, which is very scary.
Mr. Peng walked closer, his brows furrowed: "Huzi, didn't you ask why this thing has only hurt people recently?" As he spoke, he turned the small car over with one kick.
I saw that on the belly armor of the turtle spirit, there was a fist-sized stone talisman embedded in it.
