Chapter Seventy-Eight: Kill the Beast and Get the Treasure
Seeing that he is getting closer and closer to the stone gate, Ren Tanyu is not the kind of person who sits still and waits for anything, in his thoughts, no matter what you need to fight for, if you don't fight, there will be a lot of things that pass by you.
In a hurry, he threw the transverse flute in his hand, and with a flick of his wrist, the Dream Soul Knife was in his hand. Being held up by the monster fish like this is a great opportunity for him to start. So he swung the Dream Soul Knife again and slashed at the fish's head, which saw the danger coming, and wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
Ren Tanyu pierced several holes in the head of the fish in a row, and the fish's blood came out at once. Following the fish, he was in pain, and shook him hard, but instead of pushing Ren Tanyu to the wall, he threw him against the wall. Although the water has a lot of buoyancy, the whale's strength is not weak.
Ren Tanyu, who was thrown on the wall, only felt that the world was spinning, and then he only felt that his throat and eyes were salty, and a stream of blood sprayed out. Ren Tanyu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand hatefully, and rushed towards the crumbling whale again.
In order to prevent being thrown off again, this time he had a heart, which was to grab the fin of the strange fish, and with the other hand, he held the Dream Soul Knife and stabbed it desperately. Suddenly, blood splashed everywhere, and Ren Tan was covered in a lot, and he couldn't tell which was his own blood and which was whale's blood.
After a long time, the whale's movement became smaller and smaller, and it did not move at all. Ren Tanyu seemed to have a grudge against it, in that lifeless stab, just when he was very hard, he felt as if the tip of the knife was pierced into the stone, this was never a thing, just this knife, let alone a stone, even if it was steel, he inserted it as if it was inserted into the mud. Because of this, Ren Tanyu felt very surprised. So he kept catching that place and piercing it, and finally pierced the skin of the fish.
When he was about to tie it, an oval-shaped white bead suddenly came out of it, and Ren Tanyu thought it was some kind of treasure, so he immediately picked it up. In my hand, it is warm and fragrant.
In fact, Ren Tanyu thought it was a baby, and it was just the gallbladder of a whale. It's just that this whale has lived for thousands of years, to say the least, and it is the backlog of years that makes its gallbladder so big.
After holding it in his hand for a while, Ren Tanyu carefully put it in his pocket...... Looking at the body of the big fish that was gradually sinking and the tail that was no longer moving, Ren Tan Yu let out a long breath. The most detached one sank to the bottom of the river. After resting for a while, he found the flute he had thrown away, and he left the dark dungeon.
finally asked for this dark underground palace, and Ren Tanyu never planned to come in again. It's cloudy, it's cold, and it's dangerous. But when he touched the stone in his pocket that he thought was jade, there was a hint of comfort, and the trip was not in vain.
At the entrance of the dungeon, after closing the stone door, Ren Tanyu found a few large stones and buried the switch firmly. In his consciousness, he never wanted to come to this rotten place again, although it seemed to be next to the tomb of Chen Jun in Wudang Mountain.
He used his best strength to swim to the shore, but he never thought that the shore was brightly lit at this moment, and there were figures shaking everywhere. He thought something big had happened, so he sank his head back into the water, which had just surfaced.
"Benefactor, benefactor, come out quickly, we are not bad people!" As soon as Ren Tanyu dived into the water, he heard this voice from the shore coming from afar across the water, to say that their eyes were really sharp, he could see them from such a distance, it was really embarrassing for them. After confirming that it was his own person, Ren Tanyu swam to the shore.
"Benefactor, how's it going? Did the monster solve it? After pulling Ren Tanyu up, the village chief immediately asked, because this was the question they were most concerned about.
"Well, I've already killed it, you don't have to worry so much about it in the future!" Ren Tanyu twisted the blood-stained clothes on his body with his hands. His face was a little pale.
"Ahh In the light of the fire, the people in the village saw that the water wrung out by Ren Tan was red, and immediately believed his words. But they didn't notice Ren Tanyu's face.
"Benefactor, what is the specific situation, what kind of monster is in the water?" The village chief asked impatiently.
"Uh, look at my ......" Ren Tanyu looked at his still dripping clothes embarrassedly, and then shivered.
"Oh, look at my head, go, go, hurry up in the house, please!" The village elder blushed and patted his head, and then everyone let Ren Tanyu into the house. It is said that it will take a while, after all, there is still some distance between the village chief's house and the river behind the village. The people in the mountains were very hospitable, so in order to thank him, everyone present also went to the village chief's house.
After arriving at the house, Ren Tanyu changed into dry clothes, drank a bowl of hot soup, and told the story of Zai River in front of many people: it inevitably exaggerated a lot of facts. The people in this room were stunned. Of course, he didn't say anything about getting the gem from the fish's belly, and if he did, he would definitely get himself in trouble.
When it comes to the calm place, the waves are not alarmed, and when it comes to the wonderful place, everyone's eyes are round. Finally, when he talked about killing the strange fish, everyone sighed again. Ren Tanyu is usually not very eloquent, but at this juncture, he likes to wear a high hat for himself.
Although he is still a little weak now, he looks radiant when he tells the story.
But seeing that the effect is not bad, everyone can't help but have a little more respect for him after listening to him. Because he didn't tell what Ren Tanyu did the first time, the people who left didn't think he was a big hero, at best, it was just luck.
After that, everyone talked about parting for a while, and Ren Tanxiao had always wondered that he had never seen Li Yunxiao's father and daughter, so he really didn't know where they went?
After everyone else left, Ren Tanyu came to the village chief and asked in a low voice, "Village chief, do I want to ask you about something?" Please tell me! ”
"Ouch, the benefactor has something to do and just give me a direct order, isn't that tormenting me? If it weren't for you, I guess I'd still be a kid now! Saying this, the village chief's eyebrows couldn't hide his joy, because this time this Wudang boy helped their village get rid of a harm.
"The village chief doesn't have to worry too much, it's also a chance, otherwise I don't think I will come here again." Hearing the village chief say this, Ren Tanxiao smiled helplessly, "What I want to ask is, why didn't you see Li Ren and his daughter Li Yunxiao after such a big disturbance this time?" ”
"Oh, you say they! Alas, it's hard to put into words! The village chief sighed, "Since the last time you healed his illness, he felt that he owed his daughter Yun Xiao too much for so many years, so he ignored the opposition of the villagers, took Yun Xiao to Beijing to join relatives, and he also said that no matter what is there will be better than here, he wants to make up for his daughter who has been taking the trouble to take care of himself." ”
"I've gone to Beijing......" Ren Tanyu looked at the roof, a little stunned. Do you really want to go to Peking University to find her? didn't expect her to be taken seriously by her when she joked at the beginning.
It was destined to be an unusual night, although by this time the light was gradually appearing in the east. The long-term nervousness and being thrown against the wall by the strange fish allowed him to finally relax, and he fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
In a trance, he seemed to have come to Peking University, and he seemed to have seen Li Yunxiao, on the shore of the unclear lake in the autumn full of fallen leaves. Li Yunxiao's shallow smile and the beautiful flute sound made him a little fascinated. But suddenly, somehow the wind and clouds suddenly changed, lightning and thunder. A lightning bolt struck, and Ren Tan Yan shrank his neck in fright.
Li Yunxiao's shallow dimple slowly faded and became farther away in front of his eyes. Ren Tanxiao shouted: "Yun Xiao, Yun Xiao, don't go, don't go!" ”
"Benefactor, what's wrong with you, are you having a nightmare, Yun Xiao She is gone, not here!" When Ren Tanyu woke up and saw the village chief sitting next to him, he patted his chest and let out a sigh of relief.
"It's a dream, village chief, do you think Yun Xiao will have an accident with him?" Ren Tanyu asked the village chief again uneasily.
"She should be fine in Beijing, presumably nothing will happen, you can rest assured!" The village chief patiently comforted.
Think about it, what a good city Beijing is, how can something happen there? Ren Tan shook his head self-deprecatingly and asked, "I don't know how long I've been asleep?" ”
"It's been a day and a night, and you see the moon rising again outside!" The village chief said with a smile.
"Ah, no, it's another day and a night?" Ren Tanyu looked at the night outside in disbelief.
