Chapter 4 The Hidden Demons in the Deep Pool compete for the spirit beads
Chen Jingzhi thought for a while and decided to avoid this person for the time being. Chen Sanniang pouted and was a little puzzled, but she still followed Chen Jingzhi to the river.
The location of the Xie Er Bridge is almost the widest place of the Shiba River, there are seven or eight zhang wide, the terrain here is low, the Xie Er Bridge lies under the crossing, and there is a long mud slope at each end. The water flow under the bridge is turbulent, and it washes down to form a huge lake pit, looking at the water is deep and turquoise, the clear waves are rippling, the shore is surrounded by green bamboo, the green shadow is shaking, and the sound of the water is rumbling, which is a little quieter.
Chen Jingzhi carefully observed the Jie'e Bridge, and was quite puzzled, and then looked carefully, the Jie'e Bridge had three columns, and one of the pillars in the middle happened to hit the boulder that fell into the water in the middle of the river. This boulder is oval-shaped, with protrusions and tortoise lines, which looks like an old turtle against the water, but now it is fixed by this pillar, as if it will be alive and dead.
"This is the image of swimming in the dragon and carrying water, and the ballast of qi. Chen Jingzhi was shocked, this should be a treasure land of feng shui, the main place is smooth in wind and rain, which can suppress turbulent drowning and regulate qi and wind. When I don't understand, I jump far away again, and go along the river, it is an open river beach, and then go to the distance to see the majestic mountains standing in a forest, endlessly, one of the high mountains is like a golden eagle flapping its wings, flying in the air.
Feng Shui is everywhere, but whether you can use it to guide things to your own advantage. Before he came here from Donghua Dao, because he had to maintain no cultivation and have means of self-preservation, Chen Chaoyuan passed on his Shenxiao Dao Wangqi method. Although he is not proficient, he knows a thing or two. Now that the pattern of this place has changed, it is a little difficult to find herbs here, so he thought for a while that he had to look for them in the distance between the mountains and rivers.
Thinking like this, he had already crossed the bridge and walked under the bridge, Chen Sanniang suddenly called, "Brother, don't go into the water, there are monsters in the turtle dragon pond." ”
"Are there monsters?" Chen Jingzhi couldn't help but be interested, there is indeed an aura fluctuating in the turtle dragon pond under the Xie Er Bridge, originally thought that there were fish and shrimp with spirituality underwater, but since there are monsters in the legend in the village, there is no reason. He looked at Chen Sanniang, saw that she was blown by the river breeze, trembled slightly, and said with a smile, "Sanniang, you hide under the bamboo, don't blow the wind." ”
After speaking, he kicked away a bamboo pole and threw it at the river. Then he jumped on the bamboo pole, and then turned over in the air, like a swallow bird, and fell on the back of the boulder. After he carefully observed, he didn't find much, but he saw a silverfish flipping in the water, looking full of inspiration, his face suddenly rejoiced, and he secretly said, "If the spirit is abundant, you can also see spiritual fish in the countryside." ”
Then, he took off his coat, gave a command, and jumped into the water. Chen Sanniang was shocked and frightened, and couldn't help crying. She remembered that no one in the village had ever fished here, and there were people who didn't believe in evil before, and they couldn't come back after going down.
At this time, the sound of ox carts sounded on the bridge, and the bells jingled, and a crisp female voice shouted, "Steward Chen, is this the Jie'er Bridge and the Turtle Dragon Pond in Miaozhu Village?"
Chen Sanniang raised her head from the bamboo forest and saw a beautiful man with a white face like beautiful jade, wearing a scarf on his head and a slender neck, stretching out from the railing on the bridge, stretching out his hand to hold the railing, looking under the bridge, and giggling, "Steward Chen, that stone is the turtle flooding water you said?"
"Girl..."
"It's Childe. As soon as a middle-aged man spoke, he was immediately corrected by a maid wearing a small maid's clothes next to him.
The man and woman were also a little dissatisfied, and pouted, "It's Gongzi, you have to remember Steward Chen, don't shout wrong, otherwise I will beat you." ”
The maid was also very proud when she heard this, but Steward Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, yes, son, let's go quickly, no one dares to go down in this water, someone has never come up before when they went down, and they don't even have bones." ”
"Steward Chen is bluffing, how wide can this river be?" The man and woman were very disdainful, pursed their lips, and then glanced at the turtle dragon pond and said, "This turtle dragon pool is not very big, who can drown?" said and pointed downstream, "This is to intercept the downstream water, and then intercept the upper stream, when the water is dry, you will know the depth, who will bluff, I am not a three-year-old child." ”
Steward Chen was very helpless, and said with a smile, "Xu is a miscommunication, son, let's go back quickly, we have been out for a long time, and the master is afraid that he will be angry again." ”
"What are you angry about?" The woman in the men's clothes suddenly looked displeased, and scolded faintly angrily, "There are so many brothers and brothers in the family, and there are not many more than me." After speaking, he glared at Manager Chen and snorted, "You don't care about my affairs, just do what you have to do." ”
"Xiaohong, let's dig spring bamboo shoots, my mother's favorite bamboo shoot squid. The woman in men's clothes beckoned, and the bell in her hand made a crisp sound.
"Childe, bamboo shoots and squid should be squid. Little Red grinned.
"It doesn't matter what spring and winter bamboo shoots it is, I only know that my mother likes to eat it. The woman in the men's clothes giggled, looked at Steward Chen, and said, "Steward Chen, didn't you say that your bamboo shoots here are the best? ”
Steward Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Miaozhu Village is indeed famous for bamboo, and the bamboo shoots here are indeed the best, even Mrs. is full of praise, but I don't know how to dig, it's better to let people..."
"Shut up, let you do a little bit of something, you forgot your identity?" The woman in the men's clothes snorted and said with a sneer, "Who is the concubine in the mansion? No matter how unbearable my Hu Yunru is, I am also the only concubine in the mansion, if you take my words as a deaf ear again, I will let you go back immediately." ”
Steward Chen's expression was sneering, his own master was the history and inspection of Yanchuan County, although he was a luxuriant heir, but there was only this one concubine under his knees. In his heart, he was more afraid than respectful, because this young lady worshipped a Taoist aunt as a teacher when she was young, and learned a martial art, and ordinary five or six adult men were not opponents, and in addition to that, he really didn't think that she could compare to the young masters in the house.
Hu Yunru saw that his expression was smooth and irreverent, his heart was cold, and he felt happy, supporting the dragon crane on the railing with one hand, and suddenly saw a girl squatting under the bamboo under the bridge, wearing an obviously ill-fitting dress, she was overjoyed, and shouted, "Little sister, you take your sister to dig bamboo shoots, and I will have money with you." ”
"Xiaohong, go and bring her up. Hu Yunru didn't care whether Chen Sanniang agreed or not, and immediately called the maid to go, and the maid responded happily.
Chen Sanniang was a little scared, her snot flowed down, and she hurriedly scraped her snot on the bamboo leaves, and cowered and said, "I don't, I have to wait for my brother." ”
"Where's your brother? I can give him money too. Hu Yunru took out a string of copper coins from her waist, shook it in her hand, and saw that Chen Sanniang was unmoved, she couldn't help frowning and saying, "There is a lot of money here, enough for you to buy a new dress, and it can also let you eat meat." ”
Steward Chen twitched the corner of his mouth next to him, and secretly disdainful in his heart, "It's really not everyone's lady, just a rough country man, and he deserves such good words?"
Chen Sanniang was very firm, "My brother has gone into the water, I have to wait for my brother." ”
Hu Yunru glanced at the clothes on the turtle's water-filled boulder, and muttered to Steward Chen, "Didn't you say that no one can go into the water? ”
"Aunt... Childe, where do I dare. Steward Chen smiled, and then shouted at Chen Sanniang, "Little girl, don't wait, your brother won't come back if he goes down, this is the turtle dragon pond, and when you go into the water, it will become the food of the water god, you still accompany my son-in-law to dig bamboo shoots, and you can also reward you with a few copper plates." ”
Chen Sanniang cried out, Hu Yunru snorted, dug a hard look at Steward Chen, and was about to jump down, but saw a splash in the lake, and when it was young, a big fish with a white body jumped onto the shore.
Hu Yunru was very surprised, and before she could see clearly that one of them jumped up, to be precise, it should have been thrown up. She couldn't help but look at the two big fish, and suddenly her face changed, and then she was overjoyed, and patted the railing and shouted, "Silver Dragon, it's Silver Dragon." ”
Steward Chen was taken aback by this exclamation, but he didn't believe it in his heart, and then he also looked at it, his face was surprised, "Silver Dragon, how can there be a Silver Dragon." ”
"Quick, fool, don't pick up the silver dragon yet. Hu Yunru scolded a sentence, but saw another one thrown up in the lake.
Steward Chen was overjoyed and immediately rushed under the bridge, and Xiaohong stood aside and followed. When he was young, Steward Chen turned over, tore off his robe, and went to the silver dragon jumping on the ground. It took a while to wrap the three silver dragons, and his face was hard to hide his joy.
Chen Sanniang was a little scared, but she still gritted her teeth and shouted, "This is what my brother caught." ”
Steward Chen didn't care about her at all, I don't know how many people couldn't ask for a silver dragon, let alone three. In the past, the reason why his master was able to make a fortune was that he rescued an old man on the bank of the Mishui River, and he gave him a silver dragon. The most important thing about the silver dragon is not to eat, but to cut open the house and take out a fish bead, which can be used to refine medicine to prolong life and youth.
It's just that this thing is really rare, only in the river of water, I really can't imagine that there is also here.
Steward Chen was about to leave, when suddenly there was a loud noise in the water, and then a stream of water came, knocking him to a stagger, and then a figure flew by, slashing his hand and snatching the silver dragon that was holding the clothes in his hand.
Hu Yunru hadn't seen it clearly, but when she saw someone jumping out of the water, she panicked slightly, but she had also practiced martial arts, so she immediately turned over, jumped off the bridge, and split it with one palm.
Chen Jingzhi snatched the silver dragon back, and when he saw Hu Yunru slapping his palm, he couldn't help laughing, his palm turned slightly round, and then he shook it hard, and the water droplets on his clothes converged into a string and hit Hu Yunru's palm.
The latter only felt a huge force hit his palm, and immediately flipped in the air, and when he looked at it again, his palm was already red and swollen, and he immediately raised his head, "Grab me..."
She looked at it and saw that it was a jade-faced young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, so she couldn't help but retract her voice and shouted, "How can you rob my things and hurt my people?"
Chen Jingzhi smiled and said, "I caught the fish, how did it become yours? ”
