Chapter 56: Divine Escape
"The river god is in this reservoir?" I looked at Xiang Feng in amazement.
"Hmm."
Xiang Feng told me that after I followed the man away, he had been looking for the hole in the reservoir that led to the Yellow River. When he dived to the center of the reservoir, he suddenly felt a mysterious aura in the water in front of him. Xiang Feng thought there must be something strange there, so he dived over and startled a lot of fish. The closer you get to that aura, the more fish there are, and they jump out of the water one by one. I dived like this, and suddenly I couldn't dive, and there was an invisible wall of air in the water, blocking the wind. There were a lot of fish swimming around the periphery of the air wall, and Xiang Feng didn't dare to rush into the air wall, and swam around the air wall, only to feel that the air wall was oval, about five meters in diameter.
The more I listened, the more curious I became, and I forgot to blink my eyes.
"That's it." Xiang Feng pointed into the distance.
I got up and looked at the position of the wind's finger, and saw that the water in that area was dark and calm, and I couldn't see anything unusual.
"And then?" I asked.
"I think there's something in that wall of air. I wanted to use the Qimen Bureau to test what was inside, so I swam back to shore. Xiang Feng pointed to the distance, "I was on the shore at that position, and the qi wall was directly west of me, which is the 'dubi' position. I started a game, looked at the Dui Palace, and saw that the Nine Heavens fell in the Dui Palace, and the Hetianpan Bingqi Jiashengmen..."
"It's like... It seems to be a pattern in the Nine Escapes. I muttered.
"Not bad." Xiang Feng said, "It's a god..."
After the 'Divine Escape', Xiang Feng thought that there must be a 'divine object' in the circle of the qi wall, and the so-called qi wall was just a layer of 'protective shell' created by that thing. After hesitating for a moment, Xiang Feng jumped into the water again and swam towards the wall of air, he wanted to rush into the wall of air to see what the thing inside was. However, the resistance of the air wall was so great that it was out of the imagination of the wind. He tried all kinds of methods, but he couldn't break through the wall of air...
"Since you can't rush in, how can you be sure that the thing inside the air wall is the river god? Is it because of the mystery of the divination? I asked.
"Follow me."
When he had finished speaking, he got up and beckoned to the wind, and I followed him to a spot at the water's edge, where I saw a dead fish lying there. The appearance of this fish in front of me is particularly strange, it looks like a yellow eel, and the difference from the yellow eel is that its mouth is flat and long, and there are two rows of small teeth in its mouth.
"The one who bit the proprietress of the funeral supply store may be this thing." Xiang Feng said, "At the air wall, this ghost tried to bite me, and I caught it, and it died as soon as it came ashore. ”
"What the hell is this?" I poked the dead fish, and it felt hard, like a stick.
Xiang Feng shook his head and said, "Actually, I don't know what this is, but the death aura on this thing is very heavy, I think, it should be a mutant fish that grew up eating dead corpses..."
Many people drown in the Yellow River every year, and many carcasses sink to the bottom and become food for fish.
"What does this fish have to do with the river god?" I asked.
"Do you still remember what I told you about the origin of the legend of the mountain god when I was in Taihang Mountain?" Xiang Feng asked me rhetorically.
I thought about it and nodded.
Xiang Feng told me that the river god, like the mountain god, is also a ghost nature, and if the mountain god is a mountain ghost, then the river god is a river ghost. In ancient times, many places called the river god Hebo, in order to prevent it from making waves, specially built temples for it to worship and worship. In fact, no one has ever seen what kind of thing the river god is.
These fish in the reservoir should have been attracted by the thing in the air wall, which can attract both the normal fish in the Yellow River and the mutant fish that have grown up eating dead corpses, indicating that it is a 'good and evil' thing. It is both good and evil, which can be understood as both god and ghost, so Xiang Feng thinks that it is likely to be the legendary river god...
I stared at the water in the distance in disbelief, and said to myself, is there really a river god in this world? …
The wind can't get into the wall of air in the water, so I don't know what the contents are like. As for the hole connecting to the Yellow River, Xiangfeng did not find it, mainly because the area of the reservoir was too large. You don't need to look any further to know that there must be a hole under this reservoir that connects to the Yellow River, and maybe it was drilled out by something in the 'gas wall'.
"If this thing is really a river god, what is it doing from the Yellow River to this reservoir? Will it one day make waves and bring water from the Yellow River and flood the town? I asked apprehensively.
"I feel like it's artificially induced."
"Could it be that the man who got the paper figure in this reservoir in the first place lured it in?"
"It's possible." Xiang Feng pondered for a moment and said, "It is also possible that the man inadvertently offended something and led it from the Yellow River." ”
"Then what are we going to do, do we want to use the Qimen Circle to lure this ghost out of the water or drive it away?"
Xiang Feng shook his head, "Its aura is too strong, and ordinary Qimen magic circles can't deal with it at all." ”
"So what to do? If this doesn't leave this reservoir, something will happen sooner or later. There should be more than one strange fish like this one you caught. There are a lot of strange fish in the Yellow River, and maybe there are even more powerful ones running over here, and they will definitely bite the people who come to catch fish. Therefore, we must do our best to find a way to get rid of this ghost thing, so that it can take its roe and fish grandchildren back to their hometown in the Yellow River..."
"The bell needs to be tied to the bell." Xiang Feng said, "Let's find the person who made the paper man first, he should know whether this thing is a river god or not, and why it ran from the Yellow River, know the reason why it came, and then we will find a way to deal with it." ”
"Maybe that person is the one I just chased, but it's a pity that he ran away, alas..."
I sighed as I picked off a piece of mud scab from my body and threw it into the water, and the mud scab blew a few times and fell into the distance. With a whim, I turned around and tore a large chunk of mud from the embankment, and took a few steps up the slope towards the position of the 'wall of air' that the wind called it. Unfortunately, it was too far away, and there was still a gap of five or six meters, and the mud fell into the water.
"Ah Leng, forget it, let's go." Xiang Feng is already dressed.
I snorted, felt the flesh on my face droop to my chin, and as if I was angry with someone, I picked at a piece of mud, took a few more steps up, and threw it hard towards the center of the reservoir. In the moonlight, the mud drew a beautiful parabola and fell into the water with a 'snap'. More than a dozen big fish jumped out of the water.
Xiang Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Why are you like a child?" ”
"I'll see if I can provoke it, and then it will come out of the water and fight me in a duel." I 'hehe' and laughed.
After the water calmed down, there was no movement at all.
"People say that Tai Sui's head can't move the ground, and look at this master, throw mud on the head of the river god."
"Okay, Master Leng is mighty..."
Back in the hotel room, Xiang Feng and I each took another hot shower, my clothes were full of mud, washed and dried on the windowsill. It was still early in the morning, and the two of them were so worried that they didn't feel sleepy. Take out the jerky and beer from the windward bag, and chat while eating, drinking, and chatting.
"You and Uncle Yang are both folk customs, what legends of the Yellow River, river gods, mountain ghosts or something, it seems that there is nothing you don't understand." I say.
"I grew up in the mountains, and I grew up listening to a lot of strange things from the old people." Xiang Feng said.
"Anyway, I haven't been to your hometown yet."
Xiang Feng smiled slightly, "It's not easy to go, you can do it at any time, after a while, if there is nothing important, let's go to my hometown to play together, and the whole consumption is mine." ”
"Interesting." I gave it a thumbs up.
After a few cans of beer, the fatigue finally came to my stomach. I leaned back into bed and fell asleep. At about ten o'clock the next day, I was woken up by Wei Niuniu's knock on the door. I put on my half-dry and half-wet clothes and opened the door in a daze.
"Little master, you're so lazy, we met someone early in the morning Ah Feng went out for a run, and you were still sleeping."
I yawned and mumbled an 'um', and Misty Den fell back into bed. Wei Niuniu pinched my ears with two cold fingers and lifted them up.
"Oh, what are you doing?"
"Hurry up, what time is it, Xiaobai wants to invite us to eat some wild vegetables and fish stew, go to the farmhouse where you ate yesterday to order food, let me wait and call you over." In other words, Xiaobai is so good to you, saying that you are too tired, let you sleep more, and don't let me call you too early..."
The sky was overcast, and compared to yesterday, there were very few people on the streets. When I came to the farmhouse, I saw that Xiang Feng and they were already waiting there.
"Dwarf oil, finally waiting for Master Leng to take control." Little Tutu laughed.
I bared my teeth and glared at her.
"If it weren't for my sister's ears, this guy wouldn't have gotten up." Wei Niuniu said.
Miss Bai looked at me with a smile in her eyes, and said with a 'snort' that her ears were too light, and she would be punished for this guy.
"Oh Xin girl, don't regret it..."
Talking and laughing, the dishes came up, and after eating, the three of them praised the stewed fish with wild vegetables.
"That's it, wait for the three of you to move freely, and I'll go with Ah Feng to find Uncle Yang." When I was almost done, I said.
Little Tutu looked at the wind and pouted at me, "I'm going with you too." ”
I looked around and whispered, "Uncle Yang has been imprisoned, and you will only get in the way if you follow us, and we will protect you in case we get in the way." ”
Xiao Tutu thought about it and said, Okay, if Ah Feng comes back with one less hair on his body, sister, I will ask for you.
I looked at Xiang Feng with a smile, smiled evilly at Xiao Tutu, lowered my voice and said, "He has a lot of hair on his body, how do you know..."
"Ah Leng." Miss Bai called me.
"Huh?"
"Then you have to be careful." Miss Bai said with concern.
"Don't worry." I smiled.
At this time, a vegetable farmer walked in with a basket of vegetables, and the boss was greeting guests at a table not far from us, and hurriedly greeted him.
"His grandmother's, I don't know which rabbit cub collapsed my vegetable shed last night." The vegetable farmer scolded and said.
I swallowed my saliva and glanced at Xiang Feng.
"In the middle of the night, who is going to the vegetable greenhouse to do what?" The boss said.
"That's right, I think it's weird too, and I didn't lose the food." The vegetable farmer sighed and said, "Alas, there have been a lot of bad luck in my family recently, take advantage of today's temple fair, wait for me to burn incense for Fox Daxian..."
After the vegetable farmer left, I called the boss over.
"I heard the uncle just now say that today's temple fair, what temple fair?" I asked the boss.
"There is a fox fairy temple in our town, and today is the day to worship the fox fair, which is called a temple fair in our place."
