Kong Xuan, who is known as having nothing to brush up, has weaknesses after all, and the days are fleeting in Kong Xuan's unprecedented serious study of brushing questions, and he has learned before, but this time he is ruthless, vowing to graduate on time, and soon ushered in the day of the final exam.

On the day of the exam, Tan Chunying also cooked a piece of corn for Tan Xiao at home according to the habit of being a child, and put two eggs next to it. Today, Tan Xiao got up earlier, and went to the exam full of energy after eating at home.

Kong Xuan didn't understand, "What does this mean?" ”

Tan Xiao peeled the egg and said slowly, "This is a kind of witchcraft. ”

Kong Xuan didn't understand, and stared at the egg: "The chicken is a yang bird, and corn is a whole grain, but what kind of witchcraft is it combined?" "There are so many witchcrafts in the world, and the great gods can't know them all.

"My corn is like one, and the egg is two zeros, which proves that I have to score 100 points." Tan Xiao swallowed the egg in one gulp, and her cheeks bulged.

Kong Xuan suddenly agreed very much, he just didn't see it at once.

Huaxia believes that similar forms can have an impact, such as piercing dolls can curse people, making a 100-point breakfast can of course also score 100 points, academically speaking, this is called simulated witchcraft.

"I want it too." Kong Xuan said.

"Mom, if you have anything to eat, get me another one." Tan Xiao estimated that Tan Chunying would not be surprised by how much he ate, but Tan Chunying didn't cook so much breakfast today, and only brought a pot of eggs.

"I've boiled one piece of corn, so you can eat more eggs." Tan Chunying put down the eggs and went back to the kitchen, leaving a sentence optimistically, "Two more zeros, a thousand points." ”

Kong Xuan shook his head at her back: "How can there be a thousand points in total." "Talking about Chunying doesn't know more than he does......

"Haven't you found the real problem yet? That's all left for you. Tan Xiao looked at him sympathetically.

Kong Xuan: "...... Don't eat it, don't eat it! ”

He's going to get seventy-five points.

Tan Xiao took some biscuits and milk to Kong Xuan, and then went to school together, it turned out that the two of them were not the only superstitions, as soon as they saw Tan Xiao, Lin Yang folded his hands: "The national teacher save me." ”

- The final exam was a whole grade disrupted exam room, but they were in one exam room because it was disrupted by large groups.

"Didn't you review? Let me save you. Tan Xiao put all the stationery in place.

"Review is review, I don't know if God favors me, do you have any spells for exams?" Lin Yang obviously just didn't review enough, according to Tan Xiao's understanding of him, if he reviewed carefully, he wouldn't think of seeking metaphysical help, and he was just a selective superstitious.

But Tan Xiao's research on this aspect is really not deep, otherwise he wouldn't have let Kong Xuan bless himself for a high score, he thought about it: "You shallnotpass ......"

Lin Yang: "......"

Lin Yang: "Ahhhh I'm fighting with you! ”

"Hahahaha!" Tan Xiao dodged the attack, "There are still fifteen minutes, you might as well hold the Buddha's feet by yourself." He told Lin Yang in the mood of a person who came over that this thing really can't be superstitious, and there will be gains and losses.

After the last subject, everyone returned to their classes, listened to the teacher's thoughts, and announced the official winter vacation.

Kong Xuan also couldn't wait to follow Ji Huiming to the office and brought back his old age machine.

Ji Huiming looked at him faintly happy and reminded: "You should be careful next semester." ”

Kong Xuan nodded, thinking, let me be careful after graduating from this place!

Tan Xiao and Kong Xuan went home together, and Tan Xiao asked him how he did in the exam. During this time, Kong Xuan's efforts, Tan Xiao also saw it, as long as he worked hard, even if he didn't achieve it in the end, it was not Kong Xuan's fault, it was really a weak foundation, and Kong Xuan had tried his best to show the will of God.

Kong Xuan didn't even think about it: "I think there must be seventy-five points!" "I don't know if there is seventy-five points, but self-confidence is there anyway.

"I'm ready, if you get seventy-five points, this will be given to you." Tan Xiao took down a newly bought Wusan from the bookshelf.

Kong Xuan's face turned green.

"Hahahaha, just kidding!" After Tan Xiao finished speaking, Kong Xuan's face looked better, he put the book in Kong Xuan's cabinet, and said sincerely, "This kind of thing, I don't need you to score seventy-five points, I will also give it to you, do it well during the winter vacation." ”

Kong Xuan: "............"

flirted twice in a row, and Tan Xiao didn't dare to come for the third time, "Seriously, if you really achieve it, I'll cook you a table of dishes." Tan Xiao promised, "You can feast the whole class." ”

Kong Xuan: "I can finish it myself!" ”

Tan Xiao: This is really a love of eating alone.

.

Although the results have not yet been released, it does not affect Tan Xiao's handling of his winter vacation homework, as well as the things he has been thinking about, that is, to ride Yunling to sacrifice.

Tan Xiao contacted Panlongxiang in advance, reported to Tan Chunying, said that he would have a reunion with his classmates, and went straight to Qiyunling. This time, Kong Xuan naturally went out with him in a human form.

As soon as I got out of the car, Tan Xiao was shocked, the pond at the head of the village was crowded, crowded with fishing enthusiasts, I don't know how much more than last time, I don't know how much more, I don't know that I thought there was a fishing competition here.

Pan Jianjun, who came to pick him up, said leisurely: "This is all because you caught the king of silver before, and now in the entire Southern Chu, including the townships, who doesn't know that the fish here are big." It's good, my homestay business is a lot better, thank you, fishing king. ”

Still fishing king? Tan Xiao couldn't cry or laugh, others didn't know, didn't Pan Jianjun know what was going on?

"This is your classmate, right?" Pan Jianjun curiously glanced at Kong Xuan, who was standing not far away, the last time they came over, Pan Jianjun only saw Kong Xuan from a distance, but his image was too outstanding, so he was impressed.

"Yes, he ...... Come with me and take a look. Tan Xiao said vaguely.

"Oh, yes." Pan Jianjun glanced at it again, Tan Xiao only carried a backpack, and the sacrifices were forgotten, but he didn't have any headbands in this line, but he didn't take the altar himself, and he didn't understand the matter of the spirit master, so it was inconvenient to say more.

The young fishing king and Pan Jianjun passed by the village together, hiding their merits and fame.

When he arrived at his homestay, Tan Xiao saw a young man sitting at the gate of the courtyard, with one hand in his pocket and the other sipping melon seeds, and he couldn't tell who it was, until Pan Jianjun shouted: "Lei Zijun." ”

Tan Xiao suddenly realized that he was not the young man he rescued from Roaring Jiang last time.

"This is Tan Xiao, and his classmates." Pan Jianjun introduced him, but he didn't know what Tan Xiao's classmate was called, and Tan Xiao didn't introduce him.

Tan Xiao nodded to Lei Zijun.

"Oh hello, hello, uncle, are these two your relatives? It's pretty small. Lei Zijun smiled stupidly, "Have your brothers come for winter vacation?" Brother will take you two to play. ”

Kong Xuan disdained to speak.

Before Tan Xiao could speak, a hand came out from behind Lei Zijun and knocked on the back of his head, "Play a ball, this is the spirit master I told you, hurry up and bow and serve tea!" ”

Lei Zijun squirted out melon seeds, he knew that there was a young spirit master and Daddy Pan who saved him together, but he didn't expect to be so young.

That incident was still a shadow in Lei Zijun's heart, he stayed in the hospital for several days, and he never dared to go near the water when he went back.

Lei Yong urged Lei Zijun to salute, in the folk of Southern Chu, many wizards only accept some rice meat or a small amount of remuneration, and even some do not accept anything, but the rescued can come to visit during the New Year's holidays.

Lei Zijun knew that Tan Xiao was the one who saved him, how could he dare to take a bite of a younger brother, and bowed and served tea with low eyebrows.

"It's okay, you're welcome, what about Pan Daogong?" The main purpose of Tan Xiaolai is to fulfill his promise.

"Daddy is packing his things, and he said we'll be able to leave as soon as you come." Lei Yong said, this matter was agreed to by Tan Xiao, but their father and son and Panlong Xiang will definitely go together. Especially when communicating in advance, Tan Xiao also asked Pan Longxiang to tell them to bring something.

"I'm going to call me Daddy." Pan Jianjun walked back, and the dragon elephant was packing up the items needed for the sacrifice, "The little snake witch has come." ”

"Okay, I've got it clear." The coiling dragon elephant straightened up, what they were going to do today was to sacrifice the death and transcend the ritual, the theme was to appease the dead soul, make it suffer less, ascend to heaven or reincarnate or be liberated as soon as possible, depending on the dead soul itself.

Therefore, the coiling dragon elephant prepared a lot of offerings and incense, candles, and paper money.

"By the way, I see that the little snake witch has prepared a schoolbag, are their spirit masters' outfits so light, this preparation is simple enough......" Pan Jianjun said while helping Pan Longxiang move things out.

While talking, the two also walked outside, and Panlong Xiang saw the person standing next to Tan Xiao clearly, and almost squirted.

"Ahem! Ahem! "The coiled dragon elephant hit Pan Jianjun's head in a similar posture as Lei Yong, even if the form is different, but when he has eyes, he knows that the face of the great god has not changed, and he is either a stand-in or possessed.

The little snake witch directly brought the sect master god with him, and looked like he was going to sacrifice to the dead together!

Is this still called simple preparation? What more do you want!

"You, this, cough you ......" Panlong Xiang didn't hold back his words for a long time, and looked at Lei Zijun, afraid of scaring this kid, he was already empty after being possessed, and his lips squirmed, "You too, it's too grand." ”

"No, no, let's go to the beachhead, shall we?" Tan Xiaoxin said What can I do to force Kong Xuan to write his winter vacation homework at home?

Pan Jianjun watched the two of them play dumb riddles with a depressed face, and still didn't understand why he beat himself up, and why he described Tan Xiao as very grand......

Lei Yong drove everyone to Shangmaotan, the beachhead in the dry season seemed a little more desolate during the day, and several people set up the sacrificial table, according to the old custom of riding Yunling

Offering chickens, fish, cakes, etc., incense sticks are tied with red paper and built in the shape of an arched bridge in front of the altar.

Panlong Xiang and Tan Xiao both changed into robes, still mainly Tan Xiao, Panlong Xiang only gave him a brag horn and played a drum, and the old man's voice echoed desolate on the Nanxi River: "Drum incense, sacrifice the souls of the dead——"

Talking about Xiao stepping on Yu steps and dancing the witch dance, "talking about the moon and meteors around Jianzhang, and the fairy wind blows down the incense ...... the imperial furnace"

He lit the paper money and sprinkled it on the beachhead, and the flames were like the blood and sweat that had once dripped here.

Kong Xuan clicked on the wine on the sacrificial table with his fingertips, and flicked it towards the river, he didn't wear a robe, so naturally participated in the ceremony, just because Tan Xiao and Pan Longxiang didn't say anything, Pan Jianjun and Lei Yong also kept their mouths shut.

I saw Kong Xuan play three drinks, and said in his mouth: "Accumulate merit and help the dead." ”

A cold wind suddenly rose on the river, blowing the paper ash that had not yet fallen to the ground high, and Lei Zijun on the side only felt that he smelled the faint smell of sheep's face, and he couldn't help but say: "Dad, have you smelled the smell of sheep's face?" ”

But the sacrifice they prepared today was obviously not a sheep.

Lei Yong shivered, as the old saying goes, the ghosts that die on the shore are paper ashes, and the ghosts that die in the water are sheep's faces......

He pressed Lei Zijun's shoulder, "It's okay, it's okay, it's all to bless our ancestors." ”

Lei Zijun was stunned for a second and realized what it meant, and a sense of fear rose in his heart, but as long as he thought about it, he was rescued by them, and that feeling of fear was gone, and he nodded vigorously.

Wu Wu incense and candle sacrifice to survive, Tan Xiao pinched the last trick, withdrew his hand, and said to Lei Zijun: "Come here, burn your things too." ”

Lei Zijun hurriedly took two steps forward, lit his copied transcripts, school activity awards, and exam certificates on incense candles and burned them to the seniors, so that they would be more pleased.

Lei Zijun closed his eyes and said silently, please go with peace of mind, I will inherit your courage and perseverance......

He felt the wind blow the burnt paper ashes onto his forehead, as if someone had gently stroked his head.

……

"Will the spirit witch stay for dinner?" After the ceremony, Panlong Xiang said politely, because Kong Xuan was staring at him, he was embarrassed to call the more playful "snake witch".

Lei Yong didn't know why, and greeted warmly: "You must stay for a meal, I was busy going to the hospital last time, and then I knew that you were also busy with your studies, so I was waiting for you to have a meal today, and I must give me a chance." ”

"Okay, don't bother, let's have a meal at Uncle Pan's homestay." Tan Xiao also knew that if he didn't eat a meal together, Lei Yong must have remembered it, and this point, would he go hungry on the road without eating, so he turned his head and asked Kong Xuan, "Is it okay?" ”

Panlong Xiang couldn't help but listen secretly, and wanted to know how Tan Xiao got along with the great god of his family.

I saw Kong Xuan's expressionless face, not very pleasant, after all, Tan Xiao had already said that he would cook spicy hot food at home when he went back today, and Kong Xuan hadn't eaten it yet.

"I didn't have the opportunity to eat the specialties of the Yao family in Qiyunling before, such as bream, dried beef or ......something," Tan Xiao said, "There are also free-range alpine free-range chickens here, I will buy two when I leave, and go back to stew soup for you, I learned a new method." ”

Kong Xuan's ice and snow melted: "Okay." ”

Coiling Dragon Elephant: "......"

After returning to Pan Jianjun's B&B, several people sat in the hall, Pan Jianjun went to cook, others ate snacks and chatted on the table, and turned on the TV as the background sound.

"Oh, so you both are classmates in Nanchu No. 1 Middle School?" Lei Yong chatted with Tan Xiao, and learned that he and Kong Xuan were classmates, and he already felt that Kong Xuan was Tan Xiao's assistant, and it was not strange for the wizard to have so many assistants and disciples, and it seemed reasonable to develop from his classmates.

"Yes, No. 1 Middle School is a good school, and you have a skill, so you can do anything in the future."

Panlong Xiang was dazed when he heard it, because he couldn't figure out whether Tan Xiao was telling the truth or a lie......

Who, take your own suzerain, to school.

“…… According to this station, Yunmengze has exposed part of the riverbed due to the continuous decline in the water level during the dry season. Recently, some local people discovered that there are large-scale mysterious patterns on the dry riverbed, which has sparked heated discussions. ”

Hey?

Originally, the lively TV news attracted everyone's attention in one sentence, gradually quiet, large-scale mysterious patterns?

Looking up, the TV was showing the picture taken by the reporter with an aerial camera, and I saw that there were many mounds of soil on the dry riverbed of Yunmengze, which were of different shapes, but they were all presented in a square frame, covering an extremely wide area, hundreds of meters in length and width, like a giant seal, and some small squares were scattered next to it. It's hard to believe that such a scene could have been a natural formation.

"In a short period of time, the image has attracted a lot of attention, some people speculate that it is the remains of ancient civilization, some people think that it is an alien civilization, and some netizens ridiculed, could it be the QR code of the Dragon King?" The anchor smiled and read out the comments of netizens.

"Ouch, this is a bit like a giant QR code, huh?" There were other guests in the guesthouse who were also staying in the hall, and they all started talking at this time.

"It's like that crop circle, what's this called, Cloud Dream Monster Diagram?"

"Hmm, it's hard to say that it's a legacy of some large-scale sacrificial ceremony in ancient times, didn't you keep saying that there is a dragon in Yunmengze?"

This statement, the Chu people have heard it more or less, Yun Mengze's dragon clan story can be traced back to a long time ago, such as the scholar Liu Yi in "The Biography of Liu Yi" to deliver a message to the dragon girl.

"That's not it, do you know that in the last century, there were several pieces of iron lumps weighing several tons that were fished out there, and it is said that the devil wanted to pull it back, but he couldn't pull it. This iron mound is said to belong to the dragon. Someone said with a mysterious face.

Panlong Xiang couldn't help but interject: "It's not an iron lump, it's called a swallowtail iron flail." ”

He once had a booklet of the Pai Sect Master in his hand, and the Pai Gong went down the Nanxi River to the wharf of Yunmengze all the year round to trade, and even the cover of the booklet was clearly written, Eight hundred miles of Yunmeng, Enbo and Chu, thousands of years of true teaching, the road leads to the sky.

Tan Xiao nodded, he also flipped through the booklet and saw the relevant records.

It is said that the dragon is afraid of iron and likes swallows, and the role of this swallowtail iron flail is similar to that of the iron turtle of the Nanxi River, which is a kind of disgusting thing. It's just that Yunmengze is much bigger than Nanxi River, and the iron flail is also bigger and more numerous.

"Oh, the old man knows more. Anyway, that's what it means.,The old people used to say that there was a dragon in it.,This picture must have something to do with it.。 A guest at the B&B swore solemnly, "During the flood, there was a corpse of a dragon washed ashore, and I have a relative who lives there, and he said that many old people have seen it!" ”

If the story of the swallowtail iron flail is too long, then at the end of the last century, someone saw the Yunmengze flood and washed out the remains of the dragon, it can be regarded as a well-known urban anecdote.

When it comes to the legend of Yun Mengze, most of the Chu people present are gushing.

There are also younger retorts, "It must be some kind of large underwater creature." ”

"Large underwater creatures? That's not still a dragon. ”

“…… It could also be a water monster! ”

Tan Xiao looked at the unusually regular image and also became suspicious, could this really be some kind of unnatural ruin? After all, Yun Mengze is indeed not simple, at the level of Roaring River, he can only end up escaping the front line, isn't it because of the fierce competition in Yun Mengze.

He looked at Kong Xuan, who glanced at it and said, "It's not like a rune, but it may also be encrypted." ”

I only heard the news anchor say after a video: "But in fact, according to the reporter's investigation, this so-called mysterious pattern is neither an ancient civilization nor an alien civilization, this area is relatively close to the center of Yunmengze, and it is impossible for a civilization to survive." In fact, in the past, the low dam built by fishermen for fishing can only be seen when the bottom is very low, and it is man-made and mechanical, so it is very regular and smooth......

Did the fishermen fix it? It's been a long time since I've had such a dry period, so I haven't seen it before? Tan Xiao was digesting this answer, and only listened to the anchor:

“…… The above is the professional answer that our reporter got after consulting experts in ancient history and folklore from the 404 Office of Chu Province. ”

Tan Xiao: "............"

Good for you......

Pan Jianjun brought the dish up in one breath at this time, Tan Xiao glanced at Pan Longxiang speechlessly, and said, "Forget it, eat." ”

Kong Xuan saw Tan Xiao speechless, as if he saw the Q version of the character in his mobile phone, he felt funny, sat down close and said, "Do you want to follow me to find out?" ”

"Why do you want to go, I haven't written my winter vacation homework yet." Tan Xiao said depressedly, "And the news just now hurt my feelings, I almost believed it." "It's all a good program compiled by the 404 Office, and the whole "Go X Science" also shows that no matter what Zedi's vision represents, the 404 Office is already taking over this matter.

Kong Xuannian said: "It's all on vacation, you know the ...... homework"

Tan Xiao directly moved the chair and moved it away from a distance, "I don't care if I have to finish my homework and then work part-time......"

Before the words fell, Kong Xuan directly grabbed the chair, pulled it towards him, and easily moved back with Tan Xiao on the chair.

Tan Xiao: "......"

Kong Xuan leaned his elbow on the back of his chair: "Yun Mengze also has a topic to do!" Do you know what Yunmeng means in the ancient Chu language? ”

"I know. The ancient Chu language 'Ze' is a dream, so Yunmeng originally had the meaning of Yunze, and then added a word to call Yunmengze. Tan Xiaoxin said that there had to be a back and forth, "Eh, then you say, Yunmengze is the largest freshwater lake in my country?" What type of climate does it belong to? ”

Kong Xuan: "............"

Forget it, I don't really want to go to Yunmengze. ：，，.
