Chapter 61: The Drought Fish

Under the scorching sun, a middle-aged man dressed as a messenger galloped on the post road. It had not rained for three years, and the horses' hooves kicked up a puff of smoke and dust on the dry yellow earth.

Zhang Gui, a messenger between the capital and Yi County, came to a fork in the road, looked up at the cloudless sky, licked his chapped lips, shook his head and sighed, and continued to urge the horse forward.

In such a hot and dry weather, no one wants to run outside, Zhang Gui now just wants to reach his destination quickly, then beg for a bowl of water to drink, and sleep well. Subconsciously touched his chest, there was an urgent item there that had to be delivered to Yi County within three days.

Sleepless along the way, two fast horses have been killed, if it weren't for the high price of the customer, Zhang Gui didn't want to take over this tiring work. He is very familiar with the size of the path from the capital to Yi County, although the sun is already setting in the west, but seeing that he can reach the destination by crossing another mountain, he quickly accelerated his speed and continued to move forward.

From the fork in the road to a deserted path, according to Zhang Gui's memory, here is the shortcut road to Yi County. If you're lucky, you can get there before nightfall.

Suddenly, a black wind blew up, dark clouds were thick, and it was pouring rain from the sky!

Zhang Gui panicked, saw a ruined temple in front of him, and hurriedly urged the horse to go in to avoid the rain. Looking at this day, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it today. A bonfire was set up in the temple and waited for the rainstorm to dissipate.

After several days of hard work, Zhang Gui actually slept by the bonfire. When I woke up again, it was late at night, the heavy rain outside had gradually stopped, and the campfire had been extinguished at some point. And just when he wanted to light the fire again, suddenly, he saw a woman in green clothes carrying a lantern and walking towards this side!

The woman entered the temple with a smile, and up close she looked like she was seventeen or eighteen years old, and her appearance was very beautiful. Her hands are like soft wattles, her skin is like clotted fat, her collar is like a grub, her teeth are like rhinoceros, her head is like a moth with eyebrows, she is smiling and smiling, her eyes are beautiful, and her country is beautiful and fragrant.

Originally, in this wilderness, I met a woman with a lantern, I don't know if it was a human or a ghost, it was very strange. But now Zhang Gui has swept away his previous fright, and just stared blankly at the beauty in front of him.

Only then did he remember to salute and ask, "Why did the girl come here late at night?"

The woman lowered her head and smiled, glanced at Zhang Gui, lowered her head and said: "The little woman lives near this ancient temple, she just came back from the county, passing by here, and saw the official You spend the night in this unobstructed broken temple, and I have come to invite you to my house to rest." ”

"That's not good, how dare a vulgar man like me disturb the girl's rest in the middle of the night. Zhang Gui scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, please come with me. After the woman in Tsing Yi finished speaking, she didn't wait for Zhang Gui to answer, turned around and walked out of the temple.

Seeing this, Zhang Gui couldn't refuse again, so he had to follow behind the woman. The two of them walked in the dense forest for about half an hour with lanterns and horses, and finally saw an elegant and exquisite small courtyard. The woman in Tsing Yi tied Zhang Gui's horse and introduced him into the room.

"The officials have worked hard all the way, so I will make tea for the officials to relieve their fatigue. The woman in Tsing Yi asked Zhang Gui to sit on the main seat, and she was cooking tea beside her. Although the tea set is simple, it is also an eye-catching picture with the woman's noble and elegant movements.

Zhang Gui was a little reluctant to turn his gaze away from the woman in Tsing Yi and look around. This is a simple and elegant house, the walls are neat and orderly, whether it is on the seats or on the ground, it is spotless, and the fragrance of orchid is everywhere.

As he was watching, a wisp of fragrance came to his nose, and he turned his head to see that the woman in Tsing Yi had handed a bowl of fragrant tea to him. Zhang Gui nodded in thanks, took the fragrant tea and drank it all, only to feel a warm current into the five, sweeping away the cold on his body.

It was late at night, and the little woman went to bed in the officials' clothes. ”

Just when Zhang Gui's tea was in full swing, the young woman suddenly gently untied her trouser belt from behind! Zhang Gui was startled, turned to look at the gentle and lovely person, and a false feeling rose in his heart.

"Girl, you're ......"

"Wouldn't the officials want to spend the night with the little girl?"

The woman in Tsing Yi stood up with her head bowed and pity, and in Zhang Gui's stunning eyes, she lightly shed her cyan coat, leaving only a white tulle shirt, nephrite was warm and fragrant, and the color was delicious. As he spoke, he stepped forward and gently grabbed one of Zhang Gui's big hands and put it on his white jade-like chest.

"This ......"

Zhang Gui looked at the coveted jade body, his lips were dry, and his whole body was hot, and he couldn't help but feel an urge to take it into his arms.

At this time, Zhang Gui suddenly felt his eyebrows condense, and a cold burst fell from his head. Out of thin air, a woman with silver hair and a shawl, jade skin and dark sweetness, holding a big sword, and an angry face appeared.

There was a tremor all around, Zhang Gui violently pushed the woman in Tsing Yi away, covered her head with both hands, and fell to her knees!

"Officials ......"

The woman in Tsing Yi frowned, and hurriedly lowered her body to help.

Suddenly, a big hand suddenly grabbed the jade bowl she stretched out, and the man who was originally kneeling on the ground slowly raised his head. The eyes are sharp, flashing with endless stars, and there is no shadow of Zhang Gui before.

"It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, I almost fell into your way. The big hand kept tightening like iron tongs, as if it was about to tear this jade arm apart, "Also, I'm not an official, my name is Yang Rui!"

When the words fell, the surrounding houses and the woman in front of him disappeared in an instant, and the original Zhang Gui also became a handsome young man. The young man touched the crystal necklace around his neck, and the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a hearty smile.

"It seems that I owe her a favor this time!"

In the rune array, the phantom array is the most unpredictable, sometimes it is like being in a dream, and there is no distinction between the real and the false. If the person who falls into the formation does not wake up in time, he will continue to live in the dream realm in another identity until his mental power is drained.

Previously, if Yang Rui went further, it was very likely that he would be addicted to that gentle country forever and couldn't extricate himself. However, just like the maze, as long as you can realize your true nature, you can step out of this dream bubble in one step.

It was pitch black all around, and he couldn't see his five fingers, Yang Rui stepped on his feet, as if he was stepping on a thick wooden floor. There was a cool breeze here, not like a sealed room, but it reminded him of the underground caverns in the ancient tombs.

Pulling the dagger from the ring, which glowed white with fish scales, the boy held it above his head, scrutinizing his surroundings. Turning around, all of a sudden, my whole body stiffened like an electric shock!

Yang Rui saw that a pair of huge eyes were next to him, staring at him silently!

Whoosh ......

Finally, a brazier was lit around, and the whole space lit up in an instant.

It is an ancient underground cave that, like the ancient tomb, is erected with countless huge wooden stakes carved with original frescoes. Apparently this was once a sacred place for the undead, and it was much larger than the tomb shrine.

Yang Rui's current position was right at the top of a giant wooden stake in the central altar, and the huge eyes belonged to an unknown creature.

The creature in front of him was three or four feet tall, with a head shaped like a macaque, with a hideous appearance, covered with green hair, with one hand and one leg, bound by a black iron chain engraved with runes, and a pair of big eyes that shone with a fierce light were staring at the boy on the stake.

Roar!

The unknown creature suddenly opened its large mouth and roared at the boy, causing a gust of wind to blow the boy's clothes.

The young man looked at the giant eyes calmly, still maintaining a slight smile on his face, putting his hands in his sleeves, and did not act rashly. I thought to myself, the target of the mysterious organization is probably this creature, but I don't know what this is.

"Human, you're not afraid of me?"

A sharp and indistinct sound echoed in the cave, and although he didn't see the creature's mouth moving, Yang Ruizhi said that the sound must have come from it.

"Why should I be afraid of you for such beauty?" replied the young man with a smile.

"How dare you make fun of me!?" the voice roared past the boy's ear, blowing his thick black hair away.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make fun of you, I know you're the girl in the illusion. The young man said calmly, a pair of dark and deep eyes staring at the huge eyes, "These clear pupils have said it all. ”

"Alas......" The shrill voice softened slightly, but then it whined again, echoing around the walls, "You're going to die, I swore to myself that I would kill the first human to set foot here!"

"Because you are about to die, I may allow you to say your last wishes. The voice sounded again, and the whole cavern seemed to shake as it spoke.

"Ha Luha, people always die, but if I die, no one will be able to help you break the seal. Yang Ruiha smiled, glancing at the rune-covered shackles on the creature's hands and feet.

"Hahaha, these don't matter anymore, the important thing is that I swore it!" The sharp voice was like the wind, flickering near and far, and the same big man said with a smile, with a hint of cruelty in his laughter, like a butcher looking at the fat sheep in his hand.

"Okay, but you look like you haven't spoken to anyone in a long time, so you have to tell me why before you kill me, and let me die to understand. The young man spread his hands and said in a gentle voice, with twelve points of vigilance in his heart.

From his observations, this unknown creature was chained to the center of the altar, and the damage to him seemed to be limited to a psychic attack, and he had already learned the power of the illusion before, and now he could not easily fall into it.

"How long has it been since I've talked to someone?" the voice kept shuttling through the cave, as if talking to itself, "300 million years, yes, 300 million years......"

"Back then, I fought against the Wind Boyu Division, and although I won, I ran out of divine energy and couldn't return to Heaven. The body is abandoned in the wilderness, while the gods wander the world. My body has been lying in the corpse for many years, drinking blood, sucking spirits, and finally falling into the devil's path and becoming a drought, and the original beauty has long ceased to exist, but has become what it is now. ”

"300 million years ago, I learned that my spirit was revered by the undead as a guardian deity, and I came to ask for it. After a great battle, they were sealed here by their rune formation masters, and they never saw the light of day, and they couldn't continue to cultivate. ”

"In the first 100 million years of captivity, I thought that if anyone came in to save me, I would help him find the most precious treasure in the world and make him the richest man in the world, but no one came in. ”

"In the second hundred million years I decided that if anyone came in to save me, I would help him kill his enemies and make him the king of the world, but no one appeared. ”

"For the third hundred million years, I swore that I would follow him until he died, as long as someone rescued me, but no one came to open the door of this secret room. ”

"Finally, I swear to myself that I will kill the first human to set foot here, no matter who it is, no matter what purpose it is!"
