Huang Li continued: "Ling'er, no thanks, I'm very happy to help them." Pen "Δ Fun " Pavilion ."

The young men, with the help of the old men, were ready to jump deep into the raging waves below the deep stream.

The old man was also a little choked up at this time, and said: "Children, we don't have any wine, all we have here is a bowl of water prepared for you by the villagers, I hope you can return safely." ”

As soon as the old man's words fell, he saw several women come over to him with bowls of water, and they handed them to the heroes who were about to die in turn, and all the people here had tears in their eyes at this time.

The heroes drank the water violently, turned around and walked towards the river, Huang Li saw the steps of these heroes, he knew that they didn't have any magic, jumping from here was undoubtedly killing themselves, but they knew that this was a dead end, why did they have to jump, Huang Li couldn't understand.

Ling'er is a woman with a kind heart, she saw these shirtless young people walking towards the river at this time, she hurriedly urged Huang Li and said: "Brother Huang, they are going to jump, you hurry up and stop them, otherwise, they will die." ”

Huang Li squeezed Ling'er's hand vigorously and said, "Don't worry, Ling'er, let's take a look." ”

Ling'er admires Huang Li, she knows that Huang Li is a kind person like her, and if there is really something wrong here, he will definitely help these poor people.

Ling'er waited quietly.

Huang Li saw that these shirtless young people were divided into several teams, each team went into the water with four people, and the four people were tied with ropes behind their waists, and two young people pulled gently behind the ropes.

Huang Li saw that they were well prepared, so he didn't say anything, he just pointed to the other person holding the rope behind him and whispered to Ling'er: "Ling'er, don't worry, they seem to be well prepared." ”

Ling'er admires her big brother Huang very much, what Brother Huang says is what she says, and she believes what she believes.

Huang Li pulled Ling'er and walked slowly to the front, to see what was going on that made so many villagers cry bitterly as if they were facing a great enemy.

Huang Li came to the river and saw the old man's face as gray as gray, and he kept muttering Amitabha Buddha in his mouth.

Huang Li saw the four young people standing by the river, only to see one of them say: "Brothers, jump, let's go down and kill this scourge of the dragon, rescue the golden toad, if we really can't succeed, we will be eaten by the dragon, then we will also die without regrets, because we died for our fellow fathers, after we die, our fellow villagers and elders will support our old people and nurse our children." ”

I saw the other three shouting, "Thank you, folks." ”

Everyone kneeling on the shore made a loud voice at this time: "Don't worry, we will take care of your family!"

"Jump!"

With a jump, the four young men all jumped deep into the waves below the deep stream.

Huang Li was surprised, these four people were really bold, he looked carefully, the four young people just jumped into the water, there was nothing abnormal, I saw the four of them swimming in the water, Huang Li admired the skills of these four people in the water, in short, he did not have such skills.

Ling'er also followed behind Huang Li, and she saw that the four people were not in danger, and they were watching from the shore as if they were watching the scenery, but the two of them saw that the people kneeling on the shore were still kneeling reverently.

Huang Li really didn't understand what was in this deep stream that could make so many people afraid.

Huang Li walked up to the old man and said, "Old man, let me ask you something?"

The old man looked at Huang Li and said angrily: "Why did you two stand up, quickly kneel down!"

Huang Limeng was reprimanded by the old man, and was stunned on the spot.

The old man saw that Huang Li and Ling'er did not kneel, only to see him continue to shout: "You two quickly kneel down for me!"

Huang Li is a guy who is not afraid of anything, but today's old man's order seems to be irresistible, and Huang Li involuntarily knelt down.

When the old man saw Huang Li kneeling, his face was much better.

Huang Li knelt and moved towards the old man, as he moved to the old man.

The old man suddenly saw Huang Li coming to him, and said angrily: "What are you doing here? You young man is lazy to even kneel, no wonder God wants to send Jiaolong to harm people, it's all the fault of you ignorant people." ”

Huang Li saw that the old man's beard and head were all white, and knew that he must be very old, so Huang Li had to laugh at the old man's rudeness.

Huang Li said: "Old man, don't be angry, I can ask you, what happened here?"

After listening to Huang Li, the old man realized that this young man was originally from other places, so he didn't know anything about it here, so it was understandable.

The old man said, "You're not local?"

Huang Li said: "Old man, I am not local, I am from a foreign country. ”

The old man seemed a little embarrassed, but he said, "Young man, I'm sorry, I didn't know that you were a foreigner, and I was really embarrassed to be angry with you just now." ”

Huang Li also felt embarrassed when he saw the old man apologizing to himself, so he said: "Old man, it's all my fault, I didn't explain to you in advance, it's me who is wrong, but what the hell is going on, why did those young people jump into the water?"

The old man shook his head slightly and said, "Hey, in the current world, there is really no way for us poor people to live. ”

Huang Li asked anxiously, "Old man, why?"

"For God will destroy us. The old man was almost crying.

Huang Li didn't understand even more, and asked anxiously: "Old man, tell me, what the hell is going on?"

The old man thought for a while and said, "A few years ago, in the battle between the immortals and demons, the immortals won, and the demons lost. ”

Huang Li nodded and said, "I know about this." ”

The old man continued: "After the war of immortals and demons, our place is extremely poor, every year there is either drought or flood, in short, the poor people's income in a year is not enough to fill their stomachs, and there are many harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and many families are forced to sell their children and daughters. ”

The old man wept as he spoke.

Huang Li was also a little sad when he heard it.

The old man continued: "In our village, at least many people die in a year, and basically every family dies one person a year, which is very miserable. ”

Huang Li listened carefully.

"We know that there is no way to live, and we are ready to migrate to other places, I heard that the immortal clan is better than this side, and our whole village is ready to migrate to the immortal clan, but we are afraid that the people over there will arrest us poor people as spies, so we dare not act for a long time. ”

"What happened later?" Huang Li asked.

The old man said: "Just as we were leaving, suddenly one night, I dreamed that an old man with a white beard said to me, you don't have to go anywhere else, I will give you a golden toad, as long as you protect this golden toad well, this golden toad will bless you with a good harvest every year, there is no drought, no flood, but one thing, you must protect this golden toad well." ”

"What happened later?" asked Huang Li anxiously.

The old man continued: "After the old man with the white beard finished speaking, I woke up, and knew that this was a dream, and I thought, a village is dying, and a golden toad can save lives, isn't it a lie? At this time, the whole people of our village are running towards my house, they slowly knocked on my door, I opened it to see, it turned out that the whole village of old and young came, I saw that they all bowed to me, I quickly let them get up, they shouted to me, 'I am not kneeling you, I am kneeling golden toad', I was shocked, how do you know about the golden toad, they told me, said that a white-bearded old man gave them a dream, told them, the golden toad is now in my house, can save their lives. ”

Huang Li asked nervously, "What happened later?"

The old man continued: "Later, we offered the golden toad, and it is strange to say that since that year, there has been no drought or flood in our place, and our people here have paid the harsh taxes every year, and we have left enough food for us to eat, and we were so excited that we bowed down to the golden toad every day, and worshiped him as a god." ”

Huang Li's eyes stared at the old man, and the old man continued: "There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, people have good fortune and misfortune, it was yesterday, we suddenly disappeared the golden toad, the whole village looked around, but did not find it, and finally the golden toad gave us a dream, saying that it was too boring recently, so I wanted to come out and go around, but I didn't expect that when I was swimming in the river, I was entangled by a dragon, this dragon is magically strong, I am not an opponent, it seems that I can no longer protect you in the future." I finally asked, where is the dragon, and then, it told me this place, we came to look for it last night, and sent a few young people into the water to see, but they have only come up so far, and the others have been killed, and this one has also been eaten by the dragon, and he said to us, the dragon is too big, a few feet long, and they are not opponents at all, but if they go down, what will the golden toad do?"

The old man began to weep again.

Huang Li knew that this must be another demon doing evil, and it seemed that he couldn't do anything about this matter today.

At this time, I saw a boiling on the shore, Huang Li ran to take a look, it turned out that the four young people who went down to look for the golden toad were killed, and only one young man's body was pulled up, but his body was no longer called a corpse, only two legs were wound by a rope.

When Huang Li saw this, he seemed to have a feeling of vomiting.
