Volume 1 Wandering in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 16 The Dragon and Turtle Seek Their Heels
"Lao Gao, why does this kid look a little weird?" Watching Lin Zining rush away, Li Qi said to Gao Qing with a look of surprise.
"What's wrong?"
"This kid is getting stronger and stronger, his movements are getting more and more agile, and he is whiter than when he first came here."
"So what?"
"This kid must have something to hide from us."
"Are you trying to ......?"
"Is there something wrong with you Gu worm?"
"No way, didn't you see him in pain that day? What I'm worried about is not the change in his body, but the ......" Gao Qing frowned, seeing that Lin Zining had disappeared from sight, he turned around and went back to the stone cave without finishing his words.
The two walked to the first stone room on the left, the rest room at this time, and after taking their seats, Gao Qing continued: "I'm afraid that this kid Lin Zining will make a fuss in my medicine." ”
"He dares!" Li Qi was furious when he heard this.
Gao Qing looked at Li Qi and asked with a smile, "Why doesn't he dare?" It's nothing more than a death. ”
"Then what is the way to die, if he is honest, when the time comes, give him a good time, if you dare to think carefully, I will let her see and understand, what is the meaning of living without death!" When Li Qi said this, his face was hideous, and his rough expression was completely different from his previous rough expression.
Gao Qing said: "You think so, why should you be afraid of any changes in him?" ”
"I always feel that things are going too well, and I feel a little uncomfortable." Richie no longer grimaced.
When Li Qi said this, Gao Qing also felt the same way, and said in his heart, it was indeed too smooth, should he listen to Lin Zining's words, it has been three or four days, Fei Boming will not let himself wait too long, and it is estimated that his subordinates are almost fine.
If only Li Qi could have Lin Zining's cleverness, he could discuss it with him.
There was some worry in his heart, but Gao Qing's face was not obvious, and he just said to Li Qi: "Old Sun, why don't you go and see Lin Zining, this kid?" ”
Li Qi said: "I have this intention, and it is good to make him a stone cave." ”
Lin Zining and Li Qi arrived almost front and back, Lin Zining put the medicinal herbs away, and was about to clean the thousand red roots, when he happened to meet Li Qi at the door. Lin Zining thought to himself, this old thing, I'm afraid I'm suspicious of myself, but even if you stare at me, what can you do? I'm just poisoning you, and you can't see it.
This white-faced boy is not simple, seeing that Li Qi was slandered in his heart, but his face was very enthusiastic, he greeted him and asked, "Does Mr. Li have anything to order?" ”
Lin Zining is so enthusiastic, it makes Li Qi a little uncomfortable, although killing him is like stepping on a little ant, but people greet him with a smile, he has other thoughts, it is indeed a little unnatural, and it is much more difficult to make some conspiracies than murder and arson.
Li Qi coughed dryly twice, and said, "I haven't eaten the food you cooked in the past few days, but I thought about it a little, so I thought of you here." I was afraid that Lin Zining would delay boiling medicine for cooking, so he added: "You are busy with business first, and my business is not in a hurry." ”
When Li Qi mentioned this, Lin Zining remembered that he hadn't eaten water and rice since last night, but he didn't feel hungry at all, was he too concentrated, or was he about to open the valley?
Thinking so in his heart, but he couldn't say this, Lin Zining replied: "Mr. Li came just in time, and I was also hungry, so I thought about washing the herbs and boiling them first, and then cooking." ”
Li Qi said: "That's very good. ”
So, Lin Zining came to a spring he found to wash the medicinal herbs, and took sweet spring water to boil the medicine. Then he asked Li Qi to look at the fire and go to the creek to catch some fish.
It didn't take long for Lin Zining to catch two big fish, scrape the scales and cut the belly by the stream, and wash them before returning to his residence. So while boiling the medicine, he cooked, and when the medicine was boiled, the food was fragrant. So the two of them ate here and took cold medicine there.
Looking at Lin Zining's natural and smooth movements, Li Qi suddenly wondered if he was thinking too much, if Lin Zining really had other ideas, how could he be so untraceable?
How did he know that because of physical reasons, as soon as Lin Zining came to Mr. Bai Yi, he just watched others live happily and jump freely, but he was like a medicine jar, either taking a medicinal bath or taking pills all day long, and even Xiao Xie Gong was a smell of medicine. Moreover, Mr. Bai Yi's status is respected, and he takes care of Lin Zining in every way, how dare others play with Lin Zining?
When they arrived in Zhenhai City, Lin Zining and the guys at the Sihai Warehouse had obviously different temperaments, and they didn't have any common hobbies. That is, Liu Junbao, the young owner, feels that Lin Zining has a refined temperament and loves to be close to him.
In this way, Lin Zining is used to being alone, and he always keeps everything in his heart and never shows his face easily. Lin Zining has been to the Sihai Warehouse for three years, and he hasn't picked out a single mistake up and down, what kind of character do you say this person is?
That is, Li Qi felt that Lin Zining was young, so he underestimated him.
After eating, the two gave the medicine to Gao Qing, Gao Qing didn't say a word with the medicine, took a pill and drank the decoction, and then asked Li Qi to protect the Dharma and began to exercise his qi. Lin Zining saw the smoke above Gao Qing's head, and his complexion gradually turned red, so he finished his work after two hours.
When he opened his eyes again, Gao Qing felt that the chill on his body was much less, but there was a slight feeling of swelling and pain in the left lower abdomen, and when he touched it with his hand through his clothes, the scabbed wound was swollen with a small meat bag, and it was slightly chilled, which was to gather the cold qi here.
Seeing that Gao Qing's face was much better, Li Qi was also very happy, patted Lin Zining on the shoulder a few times, and said, "Although you kid can't practice Qi cultivation, there is a way out to be a doctor." ”
Lin Zining smiled slightly and said, "It's good to be lucky to be able to help the two gentlemen, but I don't dare to think about it so much." ”
......
It is rare for Lin Zining to remember that yesterday's wind and thunder surged and made a lot of noise, but yesterday's Captain Shrimp and General Crab had fallen asleep all night, and they only woke up until midnight.
The two demons don't know how many water tribes have died in the river for more than ten miles, so they can only be like a lost dog, fleeing all the way back to the Dragon Palace.
Not to mention what the scene is in the Dragon Palace in the deep pool under the banyan tree, the Dragon King Temple by the banyan tree is very lively. The river is divided into two banks, this side of the Longwang Temple is Wangjiazhuang, the other side of the river is Lijiazhuang, the two Zhuang families have lived here for generations, marrying each other's daughters and daughters-in-law, but also living in harmony.
Because yesterday's thunder sounded, a lot of fish and shrimp in the river died, and the people on both sides of the strait were afraid that the wind and rain would not be smooth this year, so they wanted to discuss the matter of sacrificing to the gods in the Longwang Temple. Why discuss here? It is because this is an important matter discussed by the two villages, and it is not easy to go to which ancestral hall, but this dragon king temple is built by the two villages, and the people of these two villages come to the incense on weekdays.
After discussing and discussing, it was decided to prepare the best three animals, and invite the priests who came to the City God Temple to be responsible for the sacrifice, and offer a lot of incense. And unanimously elected the head of the Wang clan and Wang De in Wangjiazhuang as the person in charge of the sacrifice.
Wang De's family has a lot of land and capital, he is an ancient person, warm-hearted, and anxious for justice and righteousness, so naturally he does not have to worry about embezzlement of public funds. Moreover, he has a deep friendship with the worship officials of the City God Temple, and he is really the best candidate.
Wang De's son is named Wang Zijun, twelve or thirteen years old, six feet tall, today the school is on holiday, so he begged his father to bring him to observe. When he got out of the Dragon King Temple, Wang Zijun said to Wang De: "Daddy, when you sacrifice to the Dragon King, let me go and see it, okay?" ”
Wang Desu knew that he was naughty as an only child, and he was not interested in studying and studying, but he liked ghosts and gods and immortals. said with a straight face: "You should focus on your studies, how can you waste your studies to watch the sacrificial ceremony?" This is not a temple fair. ”
No matter how Wang Zijun begged, Wang De just didn't agree.
The two Zhuangzi people discussed the Dragon King Temple at the same time, discussed for more than an hour, and went out in the middle of noon. When they went out, the Jiaolong King and the turtle prime minister turned into human forms in the temple, looking at the crowd that was gradually moving away, the Jiaolong King said: "The people here are simple and simple, and the people are kind, which is really a blessing for us." ”
But no, thanks to Lin Zining, yesterday the water tribe suffered heavy losses, the demon soldiers were killed or injured, and forty or fifty people were lost, if there was no incense support, the dragon king was worried that the next rain would not be able to put people away.
Today, the two of them did not come to listen to the villagers discuss the sacrificial matter, but to go to the source of the aura that stirred the river yesterday to see, yesterday did not dare to take the risk to go, and if they didn't go to see it today, it would really be a turtle with a shrunken head.
When the two of them came out of the Dragon King Temple, the dragon released a cloud of water vapor, and they hid the two of them in it, and flew for a quarter of an hour, and they arrived at the place where Lin Zining cultivated yesterday. The two of them looked at it, the mountains on both sides of the strait were undulating, and it was not a treasure land of Lingshan, how could someone come here to make such a move?
When the Jiaolong King was clueless, the turtle prime minister suddenly pulled his sleeve and pointed to the middle of the river, but the Jiaolong King was a little puzzled and asked, "Why is the turtle prime minister pointing there?" ”
The turtle prime minister said: "Look, the king, is the place I am pointing to wider than the upper and lower sides?" “
Where there is water, the shallow part is transparent, and the deep part is blue and black, which is because the water is deep and the sun does not shine. The two of them are water tribes, and they don't know how many years they have lived in the water.
The Dragon King said: "Take a closer look, it is not only wider than the top and bottom, but also resembles a big circle. ”
After the two of them submerged in the river, they saw that there was a big round pit at the bottom of the river here. Looking at this deep pit with a diameter of more than three zhang and a depth of no less than two zhang, both of them were shocked.
Jiaolong King said: "Yesterday's aura disorder in the river, could it have something to do with this?" ”
The turtle prime minister said: "I'm afraid I can't get rid of it, but I don't know why this hole is made, and why do you want to make such a big hole here?" ”
