The old man's words made Chen Heng and the others even more puzzled, since they knew that they were cultivators, but they still had to persuade them to leave, there must be something unusual in this place. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Chen Heng looked at Shen Lingshuang and found that although her face was still calm, there was a faint trace of anger in her heart, which was not aimed at the old man, but against the unknown danger.

So, Chen Heng arched his hand towards the old man again, and said with a smile: "Uncle, the two of us have just come down the mountain gate, and we are more nosy, if we don't do something after seeing the situation here, I am afraid that we will be restless in the future, if it is convenient, you can tell us about it." Even if you can't help in the end, you should just talk about it. You can rest assured that we're all very tight-lipped. ”

The old man actually knew that Chen Heng had good intentions, and immediately sighed lightly: "Okay, since you want to know, the old man will tell you, but after listening to it, let's leave as soon as possible." ”

After that, he no longer hid it and told the whole story.

"There are more than 30 villages here, large and small, collectively known as Liusha County. The people of Liusha County have always been self-reliant, and they have their own farming, fruit forests, animal husbandry, fishing, and farming. ”

"It is said that there is a river in the quicksand river, which is the immortal god who shelters the quicksand county, and the reason why we can live so rich is because of his existence, so every year we will have a grand festival, and the harvest will be more abundant in the coming year. ”

Hearing this, Chen Heng suddenly frowned, they are cultivators themselves, how could they believe in the words of immortals.

If there is really a so-called Hebo in the quicksand river, the biggest possibility is that the demon is haunting, but before entering the village, Chen Heng obviously didn't feel any demonic energy, is this Hebo really a fairy god?

The old man obviously saw the doubts of Chen Heng and the others, so he opened his mouth to explain: "You don't have to believe it, there were also people who doubted the authenticity of Hebo before, and they didn't participate in the festival. That year, all kinds of aquaculture industries were thriving, but because of the suspicion of that part of the people, it suddenly became a famine, and in the end, not only did not harvest the grains, but also almost affected the entire Liusha County. ”

The old man's words made Chen Heng's brows furrow deeper, and he glanced at Shen Lingshuang, and he understood a little more in his heart.

It seems that the flood in front of him may be related to the river.

Sure enough, then I heard the old man continue: "As for the festival, we should all pay taxes, at least it is much better than other places that rely entirely on heavenly luck. It's just that not long ago, Hebo suddenly appeared, saying that he wanted to marry and asked Liusha County to pick out a young and beautiful girl for him, and if he didn't pay it, he would send a big flood to flood the entire Liusha County, and then not only would all the harvest be destroyed, but even our personal property would be damaged. ”

Really!

Chen Heng sighed secretly in his heart and asked, "You just refused?"

By this time, Chen Heng could already confirm that that Hebo must be a cultivator with a crooked path of evil demons and an evil heart.

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "How dare we! Even if he doesn't need to threaten Quicksand County, we can't fight him!"

"You handed it in?"

Shen Lingshuang, who had never spoken, suddenly showed a trace of evil aura on his body at this time, and his momentum erupted, startling the old man.

If it weren't for Chen Heng blocking Shen Lingshuang's momentum in time, the old man would have fallen directly into the water.

Chen Heng wanted to complain about Shen Lingshuang for a few words, but seeing that her face was as cold as frost, he sighed secretly in his heart, and only glanced at her, but did not speak.

In fact, Shen Lingshuang was also angry for a while, and came back to his senses, although his face was still cold, he still took his momentum back and didn't start.

Chen Heng smiled slightly bitterly, turned his head to look at the old man, and said comfortingly: "Don't be surprised, don't be surprised, you go on!"

The old man glanced at Shen Lingshuang with apprehension, and after a long while, he came to his senses and said slowly: "Actually, we can't help it, not to mention, being able to become Hebo's wife is not a bad thing, maybe that family can still be shaded." Therefore, after discussion, it was the daughter of the Shi Bo family, Shi Xiulan, who was finally decided. ”

At this time, Chen Heng also understood why the middle-aged man Shi Bo looked like that just now, but he frowned again: "Since you have already discussed, why does Hebo still have a big flood?"

The old man sighed bitterly: "We discussed it, and Hebo agreed, but Shi Bo didn't agree! Xiulan is only fourteen years old this year, and he loves his daughter Ruozi, and he only has such a girl, so he refused in person, so Hebo was angry and ......."

Shen Lingshuang snorted coldly, "You deserve it!"

The old man smiled, but he didn't dare to refute, but Chen Heng said helplessly: "Uncle, don't care, Miss Shen is straightforward, in fact, there is no malice." ”

The old man waved his hand and sighed lightly: "Actually, we are really to blame for this matter, if we had discussed it with Shi Bo first, things would not have developed to this point." ”

"Then why didn't you pick one again?"

As soon as Chen Heng's words came out, he instantly felt two cold rays piercing his heart like blades, which made him can't help but snort.

When he turned around, he just saw Shen Lingshuang glaring at him, and that gaze seemed to say, "You are not a good thing either."

Chen Heng touched his nose, in fact, he was just strange, and asked casually, but he really didn't mean that, so he could only ignore Shen Lingshuang's gaze for the time being.

Hearing Chen Heng's question, the old man smiled bitterly again: "We think so too, and we also told Hebo in person, but after he saw Xiulan, he insisted on not daring to exchange, as long as Xiulan was alone, Shi Bo was angry and had a conflict with him." ”

At this moment, the cause and effect have been completely figured out, the so-called Hebo, no matter what his identity is, has been sheltering Liusha County before, although it is for some sacrifices, but it can be regarded as a merit.

But then it was so strong, obviously it was not the work of the righteous people, as soon as the big water came, not to mention the damaged property, there must be many people who died because of it, too much is greater than the merit, and the way of heaven does not tolerate it.

Chen Heng sighed slightly, and said to the old man: "Uncle, let me say something unkind, you are too confused in this matter." Miss Xiulan's body, once she enters the water mansion, can she still survive? I think that Hebo is also not at ease, marrying is just an excuse, whether you agree or disagree in the end, there is always a reason for this big water to come out. ”

"How so?"

Hearing Chen Heng's words, the old man immediately became nervous, they had always regarded Hebo as a god, if it weren't for this flood, Chen Heng would have been besieged by the group if he dared to say this.

However, at this time, the old man's mind had already changed, and after thinking about it a little, he knew that what Chen Heng said might be the truth.

"Go to the quicksand river!"

Chen Heng was still thinking about how to deal with this matter, but Shen Lingshuang turned around directly and wanted to fly in the direction of the quicksand river.

"Wait! Miss Shen, don't worry!"

Shen Lingshuang turned around, frowned slightly, and said, "Are you afraid?"

Chen Heng spread his hands helplessly and said, "Do you think it's possible?"

With his identity and his strength, how could he be afraid of a mere Hebo, Shen Lingshuang's eyes softened a little.

"I just think it's better not to act rashly until you figure out what the other person is capable of. If you think about it, even if we are stronger than him, we can still kill him, but under the big battle, the river is rolling, and I am afraid that this quicksand county will not be able to be saved. ”

Chen Heng's words immediately calmed Shen Lingshuang down, and he frowned: "Then what do you say to do?"

Chen Heng sighed lightly: "That Hebo, even if he is a cultivator of the water attribute, can trigger the power of a river and spread to dozens of miles, and his cultivation is only stronger than us, not weak, and this matter has to be carefully considered." ”

Then, he turned his head again, looked at the old man, and said, "Uncle, can you take us to meet Miss Xiulan?"

The old man had been observing Chen Heng and Shen Lingshuang, although he didn't believe that they could really compete with Hebo at first, but seeing that Chen Heng had analyzed Hebo's affairs to the top, he still had no fear, and he obviously had something to rely on.

Chen Heng and the others had already indicated that they would deal with Hebo, and they were willing to take care of Liusha County, which suddenly made the old man have a glimmer of hope.

After what happened now, the people of Quicksand County have also figured it out, and if they want to live, they can only rely on themselves.

Although this time he may be able to maintain stability for a period of time by handing over Xiulan, what if Hebo has another indecent request next time?

So, the old man hurriedly agreed and led the way for Chen Heng and the others, only hoping that they could really deal with Hebo and give Liusha County a stable place.

"Miss Shen, I'm afraid I need you to do more in this matter!"

Seeing that Chen Heng proposed to see Shi Xiulan, Shen Lingshuang was slightly stunned, not understanding what Chen Heng meant.

Shi Xiulan is just an ordinary folk girl, and she is only fourteen years old, she definitely doesn't know as well as this old man about Hebo, so what can she do to help?

However, Chen Heng didn't mean to explain, the two stepped on the roof and followed the old man in the direction where Shi Bo left just now.
