Chapter 15: The Land God
Flowers bloom at both ends, one on each branch.
Let's say that Qin Chuan left the palace, walked around the city, and returned to the small courtyard.
It was a short time in the afternoon, and it had been sunny for days, and it was just when the autumn tigers had just receded, and the weather was still a little hot.
Zheng Tu was waiting at the gate of the small courtyard.
When he saw Qin Chuan coming back, he hurriedly greeted him, "Xianggong Qin, the house in your village has been wolfed." ”
Qin Chuan's expression was awe-inspiring, he knew that the wolf that day was not simple, he asked calmly: "Brother Zheng, come in and drink saliva, and talk to me carefully." ”
Zheng Tu then entered the courtyard with Qin Chuan, drank a sip of water, and continued: "Your family suffered from wolves, I heard from the temple of the Dragon King Temple yesterday that Qin Siye said, because of him, I can know you, so after I went back, I gave him a pig's head, and reported to Qin Village that you were admitted to Xiucai." Not only did the wolf break into your home in the countryside, but he also ate a goat in Qin Village.
Good fellow, I heard that there was only blood all over the ground, not even hair. Because I came to report the good news, when I returned to Zheng Village, the villagers also gave me two catties of bacon, and when I went back, I was about to arrive at the entrance of Zheng Village, and suddenly found that I was followed by a giant wolf. Good fellow, the wolf was twice as big as the last hungry wolf I had seen, with shiny black fur and eyes that looked like green fire. I hurriedly took out the butcher knife I carried with me and swung it like the last time I encountered a wolf, it was not afraid at all, and saw that the wolf was getting closer and closer. I'll throw all the bacon out.
The wolf approached and sniffed, but did not eat. I took advantage of the opportunity to run ahead, but fortunately it was not evening, and there were more villagers at the entrance of the village, and the wolf saw that there were many of us, so he did not enter the village. I didn't dare to go out early in the morning because there were few people on the road at that time. It was only in the middle of the morning that he took a few apprentices and went back to the city together to tell you about it. I looked at the wolf's path the same as the last time we encountered it, only a little more ferocious. Next, I plan to organize a few hunters in the village to go up the mountain and beat the wolf. I look at its fur and meat, and it must be several times more expensive than the last time it was sold. However, you have suffered from that wolf at home, so you should not go back to Qin Village recently, so as not to be in danger. ”
Zheng Tu was also afraid that the giant wolf was the companion of the wolf last time, and if he didn't get rid of the giant wolf, he would be terrified when he returned to the countryside.
What's more, wealth moves people's hearts.
Last time, he sold wolf skins, and this time he returned to the village to brag about it.
The hunters in the village knew about the giant wolf, and they were all ready to fight him.
At that time, the three hunters, plus Zheng Tu and two apprentices, will be divided into three taels of silver for one person, and the livelihood of the next winter will be settled.
Qin Chuan listened to Zheng Tu's description and had a plan in his heart. His physique now surpassed that of an ordinary adult man, and it was not the same as when he met a wolf that day. Since the giant wolf saw that there were many people and did not dare to enter the village to make trouble, it was enough to show that the combat effectiveness was limited.
There are hunters from Zheng Tu's organization, and he goes with him, so the danger is naturally not great.
But he remembered that the wolf seemed to be coming towards Ying Ning that day, and broke into his house, most likely to smell the breath of his companion, or to look for Ying Ning.
In any case, this is a hidden danger and it really needs to be removed.
Otherwise, if the giant wolf groped his small courtyard, he would be even more passive at that time.
To solve the problem, we have to solve the root cause of the problem.
What's more, the wolf that day still had aura, and this giant wolf must have it on his body, maybe even more.
Qin Chuan pondered for a moment and said to Zheng Tu: "Brother Zheng, I will go to the countryside with you these days to find out the giant wolf." Trust me, I'm sure I can help. Remember last time? ”
Zheng Tu remembered that Qin Chuan hit the wolf in the eye with a flying stone last time, so he had the feat of killing the hungry wolf, but he still had some difficulties, "Qin Xianggong, you have a valuable status now, and you don't want to take risks." ”
Qin Chuan: "I can save it, I will follow you when the time comes, and you can help me borrow a firewood knife and a pair of bows and arrows." You see, I'm much stronger now than I was then, and I'm sure I'll be fine. ”
Zheng Tu looked at Qin Chuan's sturdy body, which was indeed different from the past.
Since Qin Chuan insisted on going, he was not reluctant, "Bows and arrows and firewood knives are easy to handle, and you can have them when you go back to the village." When the time comes, you don't rush ahead, if you see that the situation is not good, we will run first. ”
Qin Chuan nodded.
He still decided to take Ying Ning with him.
Because since it is possible for the wolf to come at Ying Ning and leave his sight, it is more dangerous.
When Qin Chuan carried Ying Ning on his back and tied her up, anyway, with his current physique, there would be no hindrance.
Once he has a weapon, with the martial arts experience of his previous life, his combat power can be increased to several times or even ten times the current one.
In fact, he had long planned to build a weapon to take advantage of, but now that the novel has not been sold, he lives in the city, so he plans to get a weapon after the novel is sold.
The plan couldn't catch up with the changes, and since he returned to the countryside, he borrowed a bow and arrow and a firewood knife to use first.
The firewood knife is actually available in the house in Qinjia Village, but unfortunately it is not very strong, and there is a certain risk in going back now.
Qin Chuan planned to go to Zheng Village with Zheng Tu first.
As for the manuscript, anyway, Wang Fu is afraid that he will not be able to get out of his body these days, if he can't find the giant wolf in two or three days, Qin Chuan will definitely come back.
There will be no delays.
Just in case, Qin Chuan also left a note in the crack of the door.
Zheng Tu went to the butcher shop first, beckoned the two apprentices to close the door, and left together. Now the time is just right, go back later, and it will be almost dark when you arrive in Zheng Village.
When I was about to arrive at Zheng Village, I passed by a land temple in front of the village. This land temple, only occupies a few feet of space, very short, there is only one clay statue in the temple, it can be seen that some years, the statue of the god has been a little broken.
In previous years, Zheng Village did not have a temple of the king of the stove, so he worshiped the god of the land and blessed the safety of the party.
At that time, there was still some incense in this small land temple, but it has disappeared recently, and it can be seen that the cobwebs are coiled.
However, when the people encounter difficulties, they always inevitably ask God to worship the Buddha.
Zheng Tu asked his apprentice to cut off a small piece of pig's ear, put it on the incense table, and prayed sincerely, hoping that the land god would bless him with a successful fight against the giant wolf this time, and bless him with a prosperous business in the butcher shop in the city.
After he finished praying, he said to Qin Chuan: "Qin Xianggong, why don't you come and worship God too." Anyway, if you worship the Lord of the Land, you will definitely not suffer. ”
Qin Chuan didn't deliberately pretentious, saying that he didn't believe in ghosts and gods.
His own existence is the greatest proof of ghosts and gods.
Then say hi.
Of course, Qin Chuan would not follow Zheng Tu's big bow and worship, but he just planned to walk in front of the statue of the god and make a salute. Even if he is a heavenly man in distress, he greets this father-in-law of the land who does not know whether it exists.
He just looked towards the idol and bowed slightly.
Bang.
There was a crisp sound, I don't know how much wind and rain I experienced, and there was no even the temple door, and the statue of the land god actually cracked all over, and the fragments fell on the incense case and the shrine with a crackle.
