Chapter 1: The Story of a Deserted Village
Dongli Village, a small village on the edge of the East China Sea, with no more than a dozen households, all of them make a living from fishing, located in a remote area, with few people, and even a few years ago, the Great Sui no longer sent officials to the village to collect taxes - it seems to have been forgotten by the world, so small that no one notices its existence.
I was told this half a year ago.
Tang Que didn't know how he got here, his memory was inexplicably blank, from a certain point in time to when he woke up, he couldn't remember what happened during this time, and what accompanied him, in addition to the clothes on his body, was only a silver ring on the little finger of his left hand, but Tang Que didn't think that this ring was the reason for him to cross.
It's just an ordinary silver tail ring.
The tail refers to the silver ring, which in Western countries symbolizes dúlì, singleness, and loneliness. Originally, wearing a tail ring on the left hand meant to dedicate love to God and was a symbol of a nun, but it later became a popular accessory.
The people in the village are very welcoming, it is said that it was a stormy rìzi half a year ago, the sky was so heavy that no light could be seen, the sea was rough, the waves were undulating, and the rumbling thunder was incessant, and it lasted for three days. The villagers found the unconscious Tang Que on the coast.
The villagers enthusiastically built a house for Tang Que, so Tang Que lived in the village for half a year, and gradually became familiar with the villagers. This is really a village where the folk customs are extremely simple, more than a dozen families are like a big family, strong men form teams to go out to the village every day to hunt or go out to the sea to fish, and the prey brought back will be all given to the villagers, and the women take care of the housework at home, or grow vegetables and sew, the division of labor is simple and reasonable.
"Why are you still asking this, they all said that they saved you because they liked you. Chen Datou waved his hand impatiently.
Tang Que rolled his eyes, at this time he and Chen Datou sat on the fishing boat, surrounded by the endless East China Sea, the sky was gradually darkening, and the fishermen did not rest because of this, in fact, the evening was a good time to fish, Tang Que was sitting on the boat with a hat, and Chen Datou struggled to throw down the fishing net.
"Little brother, why do you want to go out to sea with me to fish? This is not something that any of you scholars have done. Chen Datou wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked a little strangely.
"I have hands and feet, so what's the matter with letting you feed me. Tang Que said, "Besides, it's boring at home." ”
"The little brother is much more sensible than my baby, and the rabbit cub boss is not small, and he knows all day long that he can turn his head behind Ah Rong's girl's ass, what can he do?" Chen Datou shook his head as soon as he mentioned his own child, "But Ah Rong's girl is really handsome, no one in our village is worthy of her, I think you are quite compatible with her, little brother." ”
Fourteen-year-old little girl, if she has no breasts or no ass, the ghost is interested. Tang Que rolled his eyes and didn't answer. Although the girl has no figure, her face is still very good-looking, the melon seed face has big eyes, and her skin is not as dark as other girls in the village, and she is pink and pink.
The little girl's name is Ji Mo Rong, she is the dream lover of all the young men in this small fishing village, Tang Que is not impressed by her, the little girl has just begun to develop, if it is a few years later, it will be about the same, Tang Que thought, but is it easier to transfer to the church from a young age? I heard that the child's acceptance Cheng dù is very high......
Tang Que thought aimlessly, Chen Datou was already about to put away the fishing net and go back, this is when he suddenly exclaimed, "What a big guy!"
Tang Que was awakened by Chen Datou's exclamation and leaned over, "What such a big guy?"
"I don't know yet. Chen Datou said excitedly, "The fishing nets are so heavy that they can't be put away, they must be a big harvest!"
Tang Que pursed his lips and helped Chen Datou pull up the fishing net, the fishing net was so heavy that the two of them couldn't put it away with all their strength. "Pull to the shore and let everyone come together to help!" Chen Datou decided.
The fishing boat dragged the heavy fishing nets at an extremely slow speed, and even though Chen Datou and Tang Que were sweating profusely, it took nearly three hours to sail the fishing boat back to the small pier of the fishing village.
The fishermen in the village saw that Chen Datou and Tang Que had not returned for a long time, and they had already spontaneously waited at the dock, they were discussing something in a few words, their expressions were a little anxious, Chen Datou and Tang Que did not come back, they would set off collectively to find them.
Seeing Chen Datou's fishing boat appear in sight, the fishermen breathed a sigh of relief, and beckoned to help Chen Datou pull the fishing boat to the edge of the dock, the dock had already gathered many people, Tang Que saw that Ji Mo Rong was also mixed in the crowd, stretching out his little head and looking in curiously.
"Chen Datou, what did you catch? so heavy!" Lao Zhao pulled the fishing net vigorously, but saw that it didn't move, and Lao Zhao said speechlessly.
"Who knows. Hurry up and help me get this big guy up!" Chen Datou beckoned, and the fishermen rushed up, struggling to pull up the fishing net that was not in the water little by little, and when it surfaced, Tang Que's eyes widened in horror, with a hellish expression, and the fishermen also exclaimed.
This snake-like creature, not a snake, was about five feet long and seven feet wide, and its body was very large, covered with dark green and fine scales. Tang Que's eyes widened at first glance, because he saw that this creature's slender body actually had claws on it, and what was a snake with claws?
The dragon caught by the fishing net was probably the first one in history, right? Tang Que looked at this dragon carefully, it was motionless, it seemed to have already died, its body had many burnt marks, and its head was even blackened, it seemed that it was its fatal injury.
Legend has it that if the dragon encounters thunder and lightning and rainstorm, it will soar into the sky and become a real dragon.
Could it be that this head failed to transform into a dragon and was killed by thunder and lightning?
But there haven't been any storms lately, and the most recent storms have been crossed by myself half a year ago...... Tang Que was stunned, and his heart was shocked, could it be that this dragon had something to do with his own crossing?
As soon as this thought came out, it was like a virus breeding and spreading in an instant, Tang Que stared at this dragon with a somewhat strange expression.
"Is this a sea python?" Chen guessed.
"Isn't it?, how can a sea python have claws?" retorted Lao Zhao.
"This is Jiao. Tang Que suddenly said, "Jiao is like a snake with four legs, it is a type of dragon." ”
The fishermen suddenly fell silent, and there was indescribable horror in their eyes when they looked at the corpse.

Deep in the woods to the west of the village.
The woman smiled and looked at the wolf-like giant beast lying on the ground on all fours, a blue ball floated in the palm of her right hand, and nine slender and beautiful white tails danced behind her, "Huo'er, I just want your master's half of the Transformation Pill, I won't touch the rest, I am also a demon clan, why do you bother me?"
The giant beast roared, its fiery scales slightly open, and its red eyes stared at the woman.
"Oh, you are faithful. The woman said nonchalantly, "Huo'er, you are already old, you can't stop me at all, you get out of the way, I don't want to kill you." ”
The giant beast didn't give an inch, and there was already a will to die in the burgundy eyes.
It has long been in its twilight years, even if the woman does not kill it today, it will not be able to last a few days, since this is the case, it is better to fight to the death to be fully loyal.
"Why bother. The woman sighed, and the blue light of the orb in her hand burst out, and the little hand as white as snow gently pushed it, and the orb flashed with blue light, smashing into the giant beast like a meteor.
Median skull.
The mountain-like body of the giant beast collapsed, its forehead smashed into a bowl-shaped depression by the orb, and its brain had been burned to ashes by the fox fire carried by the orb, and it was too dead to die.
"It turns out that Li Qing injured you so badly back then, you couldn't even catch one of my moves. The woman stood in front of the giant beast, gently closed its round eyes, pressed her little hand on its forehead, and whispered, "The height of the sky, the place where the soul dwells." ”
The woman withdrew her hand and walked around the body of the giant beast, which was a stone wall with a high face, I am afraid that it weighed a thousand catties, and I don't know who moved it. The stone wall was covered with iron paintings and silver hook-like words, and the woman frowned, she didn't recognize these words, but even so, she still felt a sad and heroic aura rushing to her face, which made her a little stunned.
The blood demon is especially human, and he has not been defeated in the rivers and lakes for thirty-three years, but unfortunately in the final battle of Chang'an, he was defeated by Li Qing, a warrior monk who has been cultivating in the Jingnian Monastery for many years, and was seriously injured, and was chased and killed by the enemies who had accumulated over the years, and he barely escaped into this forest by relying on the fire, but he only supported a few rì, and he died because of his injuries.
The dry bones sitting under the stone wall were his corpse.
"Thinking of you as a hero, I will help you settle down. The woman muttered, with a wave of her hand, the jewel burst out, blasting the ground out of a one-person-sized pit, the woman carefully moved the bones into it, and then the five fingers were slightly bent into claws, and the volley waved towards the stone wall, a corner of the stone wall was instantly shattered, but it did not damage the words on the stone wall, the woman's sleeves were swept away, and the falling gravel suddenly flew into the pit, and the body of You Renlin was buried in a moment.
The woman Shi Shiran walked to the stone wall and opened the relics of You Renlin wrapped in cowhide, which were three books and a small porcelain bottle, the woman ignored the books, just picked up the small porcelain bottle, and then showed a relieved smile.
The woman poured out half a pill from the porcelain bottle, held it in the palm of her hand, hesitated for a moment, and swallowed the pill into her mouth.
A look of pain appeared on her face, she curled up, crossed her hands and clasped her arms, and squatted on the ground, her delicate body trembling, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
The nine tails dancing behind the woman began to gradually become smaller, and they were absorbed into the woman's body little by little, and each time a tail disappeared, the woman's expression was painful, until the nine tails disappeared completely, and the woman's face was already pale, and her lips were bitten out of blood, and her delicate appearance was extremely pitiful.
Long.
The woman stood up for a long time, sighed, and then she walked away, and the figure faded into the depths of the woods.
