Chapter 213: Two of the Three Words
Wang Chongyang said no, but just told us to hurry up. Cao Tianshi listened to Master Zu's instructions, and naturally he didn't dare to delay, so he pulled me and walked out.
It's just that I still have doubts in my heart.
Daoist Qiu told me my fortune, counted three things, and fulfilled one, Daoist Qiu asked me to find a Taoist priest surnamed Wang, which definitely pointed me out a way of life, but now it seems that this way of life is not going to work at all.
Of course, I believe in Daoist Qiu in my heart, and I think he will definitely leave me a way out.
After all, this is definitely not a small probability event.
Walking on the road, I was a little uneasy.
Cao Tianshi also said to me: "Zhang Yan, do you have something on your mind? ”
I looked at Master Cao Tianshi whitely, and said in my heart, isn't this nonsense? I'm going to die, can I be without thoughts?
I said to Cao Tianshi, "Do you think there is something wrong with Wang Chongyang?" ”
Cao Tianshi quickly asked me, "What's the problem?" ”
When I heard him say that, I knew he didn't see anything.
In the dead of night, the bustling streets during the day have long since become deserted. At this time, the sound of the gong suddenly sounded, and the sound of the gong sounded at this time, and it was so loud in the night that Cao Tianshi and I were quickly attracted by the sound of the gong.
The sound of "clang" indicates that it sounded.
When we walked over there, we saw an archway, and behind the archway was a street, and under the light, we saw a person standing not far away.
The figure is lonely, and it looks a little strange at night.
I looked up at the words on the archway, which said Coffin Street, and I thought to myself, dare to use such an unlucky name.
But when I got in, I found that the name was not unreasonable, and all the way down, the street was basically full of dead people's objects, shroud shops and the like. It's still all in the doorway.
At night, it is estimated that no living person dares to come here.
When I got to the man, I found that he was a middle-aged man, with black breath, a little pale, carrying a lantern and a gong in his hand.
It looks like a watchman.
He opened his mouth and said to us, "You are coming." ”
I hummed and said yes. I asked where is the tombstone?
He pointed to the ground, a tombstone. I called Cao Tianshi and was ready to do it, the weight of this tombstone is heavy enough, but Cao Tianshi and I are no longer comparable to ordinary people now, and it is not difficult to get a tombstone.
After we lifted the tombstone, the middle-aged man suddenly struck the gong with a "clang", and we were defenseless, and were taken aback, Cao Tianshi said curiously: "What knock?" Didn't people come? ”
A stiff smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face and said, "This is the rule." ”
I didn't say much, so I asked him, "What do you call it?" ”
He said, "You can just call me Brother Liu." ”
The middle-aged people are about ten years older than us, so there's nothing wrong with calling my brother.
Cao Tianshi opened his mouth and said: "Brother Liu, this big night, we are also coming to Anxi City for the first time, and we are not familiar with Fengkou Mountain, can you lead the way?" ”
Brother Liu said: "Yes, I was going to go." ”
I look at this Brother Liu, the three souls and seven spirits are all there, not a dead person. But I always felt that something was strange.
He led the way with a lantern in front, and Cao Tianshi and I followed. A cold wind blew, and I couldn't help but shiver. When I walked out of Anxi City, I heard the sound of water, and when I got to the river, I found that the river was relatively muddy.
Brother Liu walked downstream along the river, walked for about an hour, and still hadn't arrived.
Cao Tianshi couldn't help but ask, "How far is it?" If you knew it was so far away, could you get a boat. ”
Brother Liu didn't look back, stretched out his hand and pointed to the front leisurely and said, "The boat is ahead." ”
Sure enough, after walking for a quarter of an hour, we saw a bamboo raft, and we quickly got on the bamboo raft and went down the water, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. As time passed, the mountains on both sides began to increase, and I suddenly remembered a sentence, which is called the sound of apes on both sides of the strait can't be stopped, and the light boat has passed over the ten thousand mountains.
However, there are no ape voices here, and the occasional partridge can be heard.
The bamboo raft was on the water, and I could still feel the cold.
Finally, after another hour, Brother Liu said, "Fengkou Mountain is there!" ”
He pointed to a mountain in front of him, which seemed to have been cut by a knife and axe, and his lantern emitted a faint light, but the mountain looked near, but it was not near, and another hour passed.
It's already two or three o'clock in the morning.
Finally arrived at Fengkou Mountain, we stopped at the turn that Wang Chongyang said, there is a shoal, and the river is not flooding the shallows.
After walking about a dozen steps, I saw a small earthen bag, where Brother Liu stopped, put down the lantern, and then said to us, "The tombstone is standing here." ”
The earthen bag was close to Fengkou Mountain, and Cao Tianshi and I stepped forward and began to dig a pit in front of the earthen bag.
Cao Tianshi suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Liu, who are you?" Are you familiar with Master Zu? Cao Tianshi said as if chattering.
Brother Liu was stunned for a few seconds and said, "Yes, I still go to the Chongyang Treasure Hall from time to time to clean up." ”
Cao Tianshi continued: "I really envy you! To be able to follow Master Zu's side, there must be a lot of benefits. ”
"Nope." Brother Liu opened his mouth in denial.
What else did Cao Tianshi want to say, I asked Cao Tianshi not to talk nonsense and hurry up and finish the matter.
The pit was dug and I put up the tombstone.
Cao Tianshi also burned the incense paper money he brought, and said, "Master Zu, I hope you are all well." Then he knelt down and prepared to kowtow.
Cao Tianshi did not forget to remind me that there was still one thing to be done. That is to let the water rush to the Dragon Cave.
I glanced at Brother Liu, and Brother Liu didn't move, just like a wooden man.
I thought to myself, since everything has been done this far, then good people will do it to the end. I took the opening axe and split a hole in Mt. Toyoguchi, and the stones kept rolling down. Boom.
The hole in the back of the grave was quickly healed by me.
The next step is to divert water into the hole.
Just as we were about to take further action, the red timber wolf suddenly barked, and the sound was a little fierce, and Cao Tianshi and I looked back and saw the bamboo raft going downstream of the river, and there was a person standing on the bamboo raft.
Just look at the back, you can see that it is Brother Liu.
Cao Tianshi muttered and said, "Why didn't he wait for us to leave." ”
I looked at the grave, but the water hadn't yet overflowed. I said to Cao Tianshi, maybe not.
What did Cao Tianshi say?
I squatted down and wanted to see the words written on the tombstone clearly, thinking that the tombstone itself was not very clean, it was still stained with mud, and it was still night, so Cao Tianshi and I didn't look at the words written on the tombstone at all.
I reached out and cleaned the dirt from it.
I saw that it was written on it, the tomb of the river in the depths. When I saw it, my face changed, and I thought something was wrong.
It was at this time that the river, which had been relatively calm, suddenly became turbulent, and the water lapped against the riverbank, and splashed several meters high.
Cao Tianshi asked me, "Zhang Yan, what's wrong?" ”
I said to Cao Tianshi, we may have been fooled. Then I said to Cao Tianshi, quickly dig up the tombstone.
I worked with Cao Tianshi, and part of the tombstone was quickly dug up, but when I wanted to get it out, I found that the tombstone seemed to have taken root, and I couldn't pull it out for a while. But the river became more and more turbulent.
Then a big wave crashed towards us, and we were caught off guard and swept straight into the river.
I tried to manipulate the hydrology and control the waters, but found that it didn't work at all.
Cao Tianshi was not good at water, and soon shouted for help, and I said to the river god seal, "You go and save him." ”
The river god seal flew out of my arms, and immediately went to save Cao Tianshi.
The river was so turbulent that it trapped us in the middle of the river, and when I came out of the water, I saw the water rushing into the dragon cave, and something might happen, and my heart tightened, and I had a bad premonition rising in my heart.
As soon as I took a few looks, several big waves crashed towards me, and I couldn't control my body and rolled into the river.
This is clearly better at manipulating hydrology than I am.
I swam towards the tomb, and finally reached the diving beach, reached out and took out the axe, and slashed down at the tombstone, and suddenly the tombstone turned into powder under the axe. The river seemed to be under control at this time, and began to retreat.
I was overjoyed when I saw this, but the good times didn't last long, because something even more terrible had happened.
