Chapter 100: The Sacrifice

We were a little puzzled by these two sudden words, and Ji Shang said, "What do you mean?" How could you ...... catch a king?" he couldn't go on halfway through, after all, this was a bit too unbelievable. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The old man opened a jar of wine, and a smell of fragrance suddenly wafted out, and he said: "More than 40 years have passed since this incident, and these two jars of wine have also been more than 40 years old. Ji Chongyuan took a few cups from the kitchen, poured one for each of us, and said as he poured it: "I remember that there was no me at that time, this was all told to me by my father." ”

"So what the hell is going on?" Luan Xin was a little impatient, drank all the wine in the cup, and then smacked his lips to reveal an intoxicated expression, and Chongyuan hurriedly refilled him with another glass.

The old man nodded: "These wines were made by my father back then, but, alas. The old man smacked lightly and continued, "I was about twenty or thirty years old that year, one day my neighbor Ji He came back from fishing, but when I got home, I saw that my wife and children were all dead, and then a few days later he also went crazy, and the whole village didn't know what happened to his family, and after a few days, my father suddenly remembered that he came back from the bank of the Yellow River, and he also went fishing, so my father guessed whether there was a problem with the fish that was caught." The next morning he took me to the bank of the Yellow River, when the fishing moratorium was approaching, so the big guys wanted to get more fish to buy a big price, and Ji He was no exception, but his boatload of fish had already rotted and deteriorated, and a strong fishy smell spread throughout the riverbank. ”

"Rotten and spoiled?" Jing Liyan asked, "Why are all the people in your village so stupid?" It's a waste to have a boatload of fish rotten rather than take it home and eat it and sell it. Ji has not yet hit him on the head, "Why did you hit me?" Jing Liyan looked aggrieved. Ji Shangwu shook his head: "What do you think, Ji He went fishing, but when he got home, his wife and children were all dead, and he was crazy, what does this mean?" ”

Jing Liyan suddenly realized: "I know, it means that their villagers are very jealous, jealous that he caught so many fish, so he made money and killed him." Ji Shangwu's brain crashed into his head: "People just rely on the Yellow River, they want to eat fish, they want to sell for money, they just drive the boat by themselves, and they also seek money and kill people, you can think of it." No wonder your surname is Well. Jing Liyan glanced at him helplessly, simply didn't say a word, and sat honestly on the side.

Ji Shangwu arched his hand to the old man and said, "Old man, you can continue." The old man nodded and said, "Because the fishy smell of Ji He's boat is too strong, and the other people in the village don't bother to take care of it, the smell has been lingering for a long time, so no one has gone to the Yellow River to fish." My father and I covered our noses and went to the boat, the fish on the boat had turned black and had grown green hair, and we took the shovel to clean it a little bit, and we found a very strange big king eight at the bottom, probably following the fish into the net when it was closed. ”

"Very strange? How strange is it? I asked two questions in a row, but the old man still remembered it vividly: "This Wang Ba is estimated to be three meters away, and there is a horn on his head, but it seems that he should have been dead for a few days."

My father and I couldn't lift it even with all our might. Although the king is dead, unlike those fish, this one is not rotten at all, as if it has just fallen asleep, but the facts are the facts, it has indeed been dead for several days. My father and I didn't delay much, and hurriedly returned to the village and called a lot of people, at first I didn't believe it, but then there were more people, and the village also spread, saying that this Wang Ba is a spiritual thing, is the Dragon Lord's subordinates, if it is released at the beginning, and then burn a few pillars of incense, maybe the Dragon Lord will not be held accountable, but now that this Wang Ba is dead, the Dragon Lord will definitely not spare us, and will slaughter the entire village after a few days. ”

"So your whole village was taken away by the Dragon Lord?" Luan Xin said with some contempt, "It's also unlikely." The old man waved his hand and said, "Later, we invited the most respected old man in the village at that time, and invited him to the side of the king.

Therefore we did as the old man said, and got a boat, painted it black, and brought a live chicken, a pig's head, a handful of incense, and some sacrificial offerings, and the corpse of the king. It was over six meters long, the largest of our ships at the time, and the sturdiest. The old man told us that it would take six young men in the prime of life to come and sacrifice, but this was not a perfect way, and there was only forty percent hope. ”

Ji Shangwu sneered: "Do you have to use a boy or a girl to succeed?" The old man nodded and sighed: "Yes, we were all shocked when we heard this, but for the safety of the whole village, we had to do this, so in the evening of the same day, two boys and girls with white skin and tender skin and good looks were selected, and the next morning, they changed into bright red clothes." The people in the village lied to them that they were going to cross the Yellow River and go to the other side to find their father. After all, at that time, the transportation and communication in the village were not developed, and the equipment was also very backward, so many aspiring young people chose to work in other places.

The two children were still very young, after all, they were only seven years old, and they were so fooled by the villagers that they happily boarded the boat, while their mother and the old man were locked up in the house by others and wept silently. After all, it is also our sin.

Early in the morning, two children and six strong men boarded the boat, and one of the six strong men was me. With that, the old man took off his shirt and turned around, revealing a scar on his back.

Several of us were taken aback almost at the same time, and one-third of the old man's entire back was scarred, and it was not difficult to see that the old man was definitely dead back then. Luan Xin is also a man, stood up and toasted the old man with a glass of wine, drank it all, and said, "Old man, you are really a good man." After saying that, he sat down with an excited face. Then I frowned and asked, "Old man, I see that the scar on your back is very irregular, it seems to have been torn off by something, right?" ”

The old man nodded, and then put on his clothes: "That's right, it was the time I went to worship the Dragon King, and then I was made into this appearance by the Yellow River Dragon King, and I was the only one who died at that time and escaped back." (To be continued.) )
