Chapter 165: Another Me
"Why?"
"King Yu governs the water, and it is not the real water that governs, but the things under the river." Maitreya said: "Those things need to be towned, and King Yu is not enough alone." ”
The legend of the three emperors and five emperors in ancient times is no longer a simple human monarch, but a god worshiped by the descendants of later generations.
"Ten deaths and ten lives, flesh and blood cast nine tripods."
King Yu alone is difficult to suppress the whole river, he was born ten times, died ten times, every time he was born and died, he collected the gold of Jiumu, melted his own flesh and blood, and cast a big tripod. There are a total of nine Dading, which are distributed in the river. Ten times of birth, ten times of death, and nine great tripods, it means that King Yu has suffered nine times of torture.
"Nine times buried, in fact, it was Jiuding that was buried, and the last time was the true body of King Yu after his death, all of which was for Zhenhe." Maitreya said: "We don't know now, but it won't be too far, Jiuding is away from the river, and the disaster will come soon." ”
With Maitreya's words, I felt like a mountain was pressed on my shoulders, and the people of the Seven Gates were incognito, in order to stop the calamity that had not yet had any clues?
I clenched my fist, and the bones rattled, no wonder Dading would cry blood, there was the flesh and blood of King Yu. At the same time, Zhong Liancheng's sentence was finally understood. He said that I took away the blood essence of Dading, in fact, I took away the blood spirit of King Yu's remnant body.
"Zhong Liancheng appeared on the big river beach this time, probably because he knew that the river was unstable, and wanted to take the opportunity to take away the rest of the eight tripods. The river is in the town, and this thing is very fatal, and we must do everything to stop it. Maitreya wiped off the mud that had dried on his body and said: "This is the responsibility of the people in the Seven Gates, Zhong Liancheng is not good to evaluate, but what he said is very right, the road paved by the ancestors, the descendants of future generations have no choice but to go down." ”
What kind of ability Zhong Liancheng is, I know very well that Maitreya and I will definitely not be able to fight him, even if my father comes, there may not be any results. But if the matter is spread out to yourself, then you have to bear it. I continued to apply the medicine to Maitreya, trying to heal the injury as soon as possible.
Maitreya has been raised here for about five or six days, and as Saihuatuo said, the external law cannot make up for the congenital, but Maitreya's body is strong and has moved freely. What Maitreya and I have to do is very important, and it is not good to bring more people, Lei Zhenren and Lao Fuba will stay here in Saihuatuo for the time being, and Tang Min will go home by himself. I don't know if this girl has a strong affection for Maitreya, and when she separated, she looked reluctant, and she wanted to speak to Maitreya several times, and her eyes wanted to turn red as she spoke.
"Okay, don't cry, it's not beautiful if you cry." Maitreya smiled and said, "I'm hard." ”
Looking at this scene, my heart became sour, and I thought of Xiao Jiuhong.
Maitreya and I didn't have a specific goal, and we didn't know where the people in the Sanctuary would start to salvage Jiuding in the river, so we could only try our best to keep looking for it on the river beach. This season, it is surprisingly cold, most of the life on the river beach is resting, there are very few people, seven or eight days after leaving Saihuatuo's house, Maitreya and I have walked about 200 miles, the cold can not stand it, Maitreya has to take medicine again, so I want to find a place to stay. There are actually a lot of villages along the river, and after walking a short distance, I vaguely saw one, and I don't know why, my heart suddenly began to beat suddenly, and it felt very bad, as if there was always a pair of invisible eyes behind me, staring at myself. At this time, it was not yet dark, I subconsciously observed left and right, but I couldn't find anything, and whispered to Maitreya that he was the same.
"Let's go to the village first, if there is something in the field, it will be difficult to deal with it, we can't hide or hide, let's talk about it in the village."
We were going to go to the village first, but before the two of us could gain a foothold, we saw a group of people rushing out of the village, some scolding, some crying, as if something had happened.
After the gang came out of the village, they didn't have a clear direction or goal, anyway, they just went back and forth at the entrance of the village a few times like headless flies. Near the river beach, far away at a glance, we saw each other, and those people saw us at the same time, and a group of people rushed over with their guys. Maitreya and I didn't hide, we didn't hide, and in the end we simply stopped and waited for the other party to come.
The gang ran very fast, with hoes, shovels, and harpoons in their hands, led by a few strong villagers, who rushed to us in one breath, and the few people in front of them, with a faint hostility, looked Maitreya and me up and down.
"Where did you come from!?" A man looked at it for a long time, and asked angrily, very polite in his words.
"Dude, what's wrong?" Maitreya looked at each other with a smile.
"Something happened in our village, can't I ask you!"
At this moment, two women in their thirties cried and chased after me from behind, and when they ran to the crowd, the two women cried and wiped their tears, suddenly pointed at me, and shouted: "It's him!" It's this turtle grandson who has suffered a thousand cuts!! ”
"Damn! It's you! Still pretending to be confused! The strong man at the head of the group changed his face at that time, and a crowd of people was so angry that they hula surrounded me and Maitreya in the middle.
Several people shouted the most, and they pounced on me to fight, but they were stopped by Maitreya, and I stood there at a loss, not knowing what was happening. Two women in their thirties cried and scolded, squeezed in from the outside, one took off his shoes and hit my head and face, and the other grabbed my arm directly and bit me down. It was definitely not a joke, she used a lot of force, and my arm hurt through the clothes.
"What's going on, let's be reasonable." Maitreya was in a hurry, and the people in front of him were all authentic villagers, so it was not easy to do anything with them, so he could only block them with all his might.
We were almost drowned in a bunch of spittle, making the scolding dogs bloody. scolded and scolded, but listened to the general situation. This group of villagers are all from the village in front, and at the end of the day, outsiders went to the village, looking at the eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and walked around the village, and some well-wishers asked him if he was lost, but he smiled and didn't reply. The man disappeared after a few turns, but it wasn't long before he was spotted crouched behind a row of houses at the south end of the village. There are so many people in the village, who are usually familiar and can't be more familiar, just by the back, you can see that it is an outsider, the people in the village call him, and when he turns around, there is a piece of blood on his mouth.
Immediately after, the villagers froze, unable to tell whether they were angry or afraid. In front of the man's face, there lay a little girl of only seven or eight years old, probably not dead yet, still crying faintly, the flesh on her two arms mottled and mottled with blood.
Eat the living! The thought immediately crossed my mind.
The man was discovered, still unhurried, with a smile on his face, and the little girl's mother and aunt quickly rushed over, and almost fainted when they saw the scene before them. The man turned and ran out of the village, and ran very fast, and in a blink of an eye he was gone, and there were not many people present at that time, and they were all frightened and did not dare to chase after him. It wasn't until the rest of the village heard the news that they gathered and went out of the village to find someone.
"Are you still human!" The strong man stretched out his hand to grab me across Maitreya, and his eyes widened: "It's still not human!" ”
"We just got here, so we must have recognized the wrong person." Maitreya explained to the other party, but as soon as the words came out, they were immediately drowned out by the shouting and scolding.
"The turtle grandson who suffered a thousand cuts!" A woman slapped her shoe on me and scolded, "Face to face!" You still don't admit it! Lord Yama has given you a human skin! Turtle Sun! Beat you to death"
Such a thing is unbearable for anyone, and the injured little girl doesn't know if she can be saved, but the flesh on both arms is almost gnawed, and it will be painful to survive. I was aggrieved in my heart, but I didn't dare to fight back, and I wanted to make it clear with Maitreya, but it was useless, and the surrounding villagers had been burned out of their minds by anger.
"Kill him! Beat him to death! The strong man was reckless and impulsive: "Kill him right here!" Eat a lawsuit and go to jail, I'll top! ”
Maitreya couldn't say it clearly, so he tried his best to protect me, trying to break free from the crowd, but he couldn't say clearly, and he couldn't do it, he was passively dying, and he made a mess back and forth for more than ten minutes, and the two people didn't know how much saliva and shoe prints there were.
"Enough is enough!" Maitreya was really anxious in the end, straightened up, and said, "I said it wasn't him!" Can you see better? ”
"It's not him, who is it?"
A slow voice, squeezed into the crowd from not far away, the sound was not loud, but there was a faint harsh feeling, the people in the village involuntarily turned their heads to look over, and I also turned my eyes - the moment I turned my head, there were suddenly countless thunderbolts above my head, which made my brain a mess.
More than ten meters away from us, I don't know when there was a gray and miserable sedan chair, I recognized it as the yin and yang sedan chair of the living Luban family, and it was the yin and yang sedan chair that the head handle of the side door was riding. In the past, the side door handle rarely appeared, and when it appeared, it was basically sitting in a yin and yang sedan chair, but at this moment, there was a person standing next to the sedan chair, looking at us with a smile.
Who is he!?
My mind was in a state of confusion, because I could clearly see that this man was about nineteen or twenty years old, and that he was of the same figure and appearance as me, as if he had been carved out of a scratch, and when I looked at it with wide eyes, I could not see any difference at all.
Who's this!? I couldn't help but shake my head, King Wen's hexagram once deduced it, in the extreme west, there is also a "me", that kind of hexagram is surprising, and it can't be completely ignored. It was only then that I was completely convinced.
The other me, standing less than ten meters away in front of me!
