Chapter 166: Water Temple
Tan Yue and I were about to make a move, when five ghosts suddenly jumped behind Ye Sen. The five ghosts seemed to be connected with Ye Sen, spreading ten arms behind his back, moving their claws like the wind, and slamming down on the top of Ye Sen's head.
"Ye Sen be careful!" As I shouted, the long knife came out of its sheath and slashed horizontally. The violent sword light formed a semi-circular cold light in front of me, flying along Ye Sen's back.
The distance between the ghost and Ye Sen is too close, my knife seems to be fierce, but in fact, I am cautious between shots, for fear that I will not be able to control my true anger and hurt Ye Sen. Seeing that the long knife in my hand was about to stick to Ye Sen's back and sweep the ghost, Tan Yue suddenly shouted: "Li Xian, stop!" ”
I don't know why Tan Yue shouted at me to stop, but the knife wind that slashed out has become overwhelming, and I can't stop if I want to, so I can only forcibly withdraw half of my strength.
I couldn't do it to the extent that my strength was sent and received in my heart, and I was suddenly swallowed up by the internal force when I forcibly withdrew my hand, and I took a few steps backwards before forcibly suppressing the tumbling and restless true qi in the dantian. Rao is like this, two of the five ghosts behind Ye Sen were cut off by me, and the remaining three ghosts roared in unison, and suddenly disappeared into Ye Sen's body.
He raised those ghosts?
By the time I came to my senses, Ye Sen had already stumbled to the ground, and the waves of qi that had been rolling in front of him just now disappeared without a trace. It seems that the things that I fought with Ye Sen just now have slipped away.
Ye Sen, who got up from the ground, was so angry that he burst out two Northeast words: "You tiger? Are you biao? , trying to kill me? ”
Ye Sen turned around and lit up his back: "See for yourself, what did my sister let you cut into!" ”
Only then did I see five bewitching female ghosts tattooed on Ye Sen's back. In particular, the eyes of the five female ghosts look very smart. Three of them glared at me angrily, and the other two female ghosts were bleeding from the corners of their mouths, but their eyes were filled with resentment that could not be concealed, as if I had done something irreparably wrong to them.
I was stunned: "This is ......"
Tan Yue glanced at me: "It's terrible not to see!" Ye Sen should have been born in a family of the God of Wealth, and he had also practiced the Golden Tiger Shape Technique. The female ghost behind him has the meaning of five ghosts and wealth, and can be used as a tiger king and ghost, assisting him in fighting when necessary. ”
"The five ghosts came out just now, and it should be a critical moment for him to fight his opponent. He's ready to take down his opponent, but you give the five ghosts a hard stab. As a result, the five ghosts were injured, and the opponent also ran away. Tan Yue looked at me with obvious schadenfreude in his eyes.
Only then did I react, why Ye Sen condensed the law of the Martial God of Wealth, but used the Black Tiger when attacking Shen Yin Wood. The exercises of his God of Wealth series should not have arrived at home yet, or he has never practiced them carefully, and his cultivation is biased towards the tiger shape.
"Ahem...... I coughed dryly and said, "Brother, I'm sorry." Who knew you would have five chicks with you when you went out? If you could have shown me soon......"
"What?" Ye Sen almost went crazy: "One old man is okay and stripped naked for another old man to see?" Can you do this kind of thing? ”
"Can't!" I didn't want to argue with him anymore on this topic, so I simply diverted the subject and said, "What did you just fight with?" ”
Ye Sen stomped his feet and said, "It should be a snake." It had a human-like face and a single horn on its head. I think it's a bit like the thing they saw, and they want to grab it. I was going to succeed, but you interrupted it! ”
I thought to myself, "What's going on?" Tell me more about it. ”
Ye Sen said: "After I entered the water temple, I felt like there was something on my head, and when I looked up and saw that there were traces of rope grinding on the beam, I simply jumped on the beam. ”
Ye Sen pointed to the girder on his head, there was indeed a large mark of wear on it, which looked like the friction marks left by a heavy object hanging for a long time.
Lao Guo Tou said that according to the rules of the village, a villager who made a mistake would be hung in the water temple for seven days, and as long as the person did not die, the villagers would not pursue him again. That section of the beam is supposed to be the place where the person is hanged.
I quietly opened the ghost's eye and took a look, and there was no sign of the ghost haunting the beam. Either after the death of a person, someone has done the ritual of transcending the soul, or the soul of the dead has completely eaten something.
Ye Sen continued: "I looked around the beam, but I didn't see any reason, and when I was about to go down, I saw that the hat of the water god seemed to be worn crookedly, and it was not in a straight line with the wat board in my hand. ”
"Huh?" I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
There are many temples dedicated to the god of water, and the statues of the gods in the temples are also numerous. Some of these statues of water gods wear crowns used by ancient emperors, but they also hold wat boards used by ancient ministers when they went to court. Because, in the local custom, although the water god rules the waters, he is the courtier of the Jade Emperor, so the water god must have a wat board in his hand to show respect for the heavens.
In addition to recording some important matters, another function of the wat board is to cover his face - the minister goes up to the court to see the Son of Heaven, and his eyes look at the wat board to show his respect for the Son of Heaven. The ancients paid attention to the crown, and the crown, face, eyes, and wat board must be in a straight line. It is impossible for the person who made the statue to ignore this detail.
Ye Sen continued, "I immediately jumped on top of the shrine to see what was going on with the idol's hat. Who would have thought that before my hand touched the brim of my hat, the eyes of the god of water stood up, his mouth fell to the base of his ears, and two fangs popped out from under his upper lip......"
"I didn't see it well, so I immediately threw my head up and jumped back. As soon as my feet left the altar, a puff of black smoke erupted from the water god's mouth. Not to mention the fishy smell, it was like he had drunk human blood, and it almost smoked me to the point where I almost didn't stand still. ”
"When I stood firm, the water god's neck grew more than a meter long, and the bottom of the neck was full of horizontal scales on the snake's belly. By the time he had made a hook in the air, his hat had fallen off, and a horn had come out of his head. As soon as I saw it, it was a demon, so I quickly started with him. That thing isn't low, I finally hurt him, and you came ......"
As soon as I heard that Ye Sen was about to complain again, I simply waved my hand: "Stop!" When the mission is over, I'll treat you to a drink. ”
As I spoke, the man had already reached the place where the shrine had been. The offering table and altar in the temple have long made Ye Sen a mess. I swept away the rubble on the ground with my foot, revealing a black hole about the size of a bucket under the altar, with blood stains on the edge of the hole. It seems that Ye Sen did hurt the other party a lot.
Anyone who has ever beaten a snake knows that snakes are easy to fight on flat ground, and once the snake drills a hole, it can't pull it out even if it grabs its tail, let alone a snake that has been drilled into the hole? By the time you dig the hole, the snake might have run away from somewhere else.
I squatted at the entrance of the cave and watched for a long time before I turned my head and shouted, "Old man, you come out." How can you get that thing out? ”
When the old man walked into the temple with his hands behind his back, Tan Yue and Ye Sen were all stunned. I was afraid that the two of them would be worried, so I directly made up a reason for the conjuring spirit and prevaricated them.
The pawn said, "If you hadn't done it beforehand, maybe you would have been able to lure it out with something, but now that the golden scale is wounded, you can only dig through the ground and go in to find it." Rest assured, its nest is down there, and even if you dig into it, it won't be able to escape. However, how to deal with the villagers, you have to think of a way. ”
The old pawn is not afraid to let the golden scales hear. In fact, if you hide in the house and talk, you can't hide their ears, and it's useless to hide them.
I squatted at the entrance of the cave and said in a deep voice, "The one inside, we are here to save the people in the village." If you have the heart, we will have a good deal to do, and in the future, everyone will not interfere with the river water; If you don't save face, don't blame us for being ruthless. I can't get out, you give me a letter before dawn. Tomorrow, as soon as the morning dawns, I will start digging the ground. ”
Since the old pawn said that the old nest of the golden scales is below, I don't worry that he will be able to run away overnight, so I casually sealed the hole with a spirit rune and went home.
It wasn't long before I lay down when things came......
