He knew in his heart that if he wanted to find out the truth, he had to get here. He had to find the junction first, and he felt that the village was right in front of him, but he couldn't find it. The mission must have something to do with it, and the appraisal is complete.

Just when he was at a loss, he saw a single light in front of him, a lonely lamp that could not be found in front of the village or behind the store.

Chen Lu saw that there was a path leading to the lamp, and he walked over with confidence. It turned out to be a melon stall, an old man was wiping melons, and there was a horse lamp next to him, which was very bright, illuminating the vicinity of the melon stall.

Chen Lu remembered the dream he had just had, and the teacher said that the melon seller was right, and it should be on this person.

Chen Lu looked at the old man, his golden hair was tied in a high bun, there was a wooden stick stuck in it, his oval face was yellow and red, his nose was lees, his mouth was big, his teeth were yellow, his yellow was mixed with a red beard, and his eyes were squinted.

The old man seemed to be just rubbing the melon mechanically. He knew that a customer came to the door and said: "Eat melons, eat melons, the masses come and go to eat melons, it's sweet, crisp and cheap." ”

Chen Lu dismounted and said, "Hey, old man, if you don't collect the stall so late, who will you sell it to?"

The old man didn't raise his head and said, "If you don't eat, it doesn't mean that others won't eat, don't interrupt, my business is here." ”

He seemed to be busy, and he couldn't see his scales, only the tall pile of melons was almost gone. Chen Lu said: "Don't pretend to be a ghost, let's say, how can my old man enter this village." ”

The old man asked, "Do you want to buy melons?"

"Don't buy it. ”

"Get out of the way, don't delay me from selling melons. ”

Chen Lu had a flash of inspiration, and at this time there was only one melon on the case, so he pressed it and said, "This, my old man bought it, weigh it." ”

The old man smiled and said, "No, no matter the catty, just one." ”

"Well, love whom, how much?"

"Don't want money, you want people. ”

Chen Lu laughed: "Old man, you are redundant to pretend to be a ghost here." My old man can find this, naturally I have a reason. Alright, now I'm yours, sir. You say, how to play, my old man will accompany you. ”

"Deal, cut the melon. ”

Chen Lu pulled out the dagger and chopped it open at once, and a pungent fishy smell came to his face.

The old man looked at Chen Lu covering his nose and fanning, and said, "Don't be hypocritical, come with me if you want to go." I saw him jump towards the melon and disappear. Needless to say, the old man jumped into the melon.

Chen Lu was still covering his nose, a little hesitant, and muttering in his mouth: "It's not fun, this game is boring at first glance, this creator should be thrown into the toilet." ”

I don't know where the old man's voice came: "Come or not, if you don't come, the melon will be closed, and there are still seven numbers." ”

Chen Lu didn't care about that, he still had a few months to go, what was there to be afraid of? He led the horse and jumped in. The old man is waiting in front.

This is a farmstead, to be exact, a melon orchard, without the fishy smell just now, but everywhere exudes the fragrance of melons.

Chen Lu looked at this melon orchard, and there were fat and round melons all over the ground. They walked through the melon fields to a row of low houses.

There are really people selling melons, and the pedestrians who come and go are no different from the people of the Western Regions, but they all hold a piece of melon in their hands and eat it as they walk.

Chen Lu looked at it and smiled, Damn, this is the people who eat melons, this sentence should come from here. When Chen Lu looked carefully, the melon juice was red, bright red and red, like a drop of blood.

The old man looked back and said, "I've never seen a melon like this, have you?" It's just an ordinary melon, but it's also longevity, do you want to try it?"

Before the words fell, the two entered an inner room, looking low outside, and after coming in, Chen Lu found that this hall was spacious and bright, and there was a middle-aged man sitting on it, who looked like Maitreya Buddha with a big belly, sitting on a crystal clear melon skin, Chen Lu looked closely and found that it was a seat like a melon skin.

The old man said to Chen Lu: "This is the king, hurry up and bow down." ”

"You old man, you don't know anything about my old man. Tell you, I've been living a happy life, I kneel to the sky, kneel to the ground, kneel to the elders, and the others? Hmph! Kneel to them? My old man can only hehe. ”

Chen Lu was talking, his eyes were not idle for a moment, and he found that there were several rows of melon-eating people lined up over there, all holding a piece of melon in their hands. He looked to the right, there were two people tied to the pillar, Chen Lu knew that these were soldiers of the mission, both of them had long stems on the melon seedlings, and they looked like they had no breath.

Next to these two soldiers stood two round people, they saw someone coming with a melon, so they put the melon stem to the melon slice, and the soldier's blood was sucked out, poured on the melon, and the melon became red, exuding a faint smell of blood.

These people lined up and picked them up one by one.

At this time, Chen Lu had no fear, only anger, and shouted: "You demons." As he was about to make his palm, the king swung his head, and two green ropes flew out of his hair.

Without waiting for Chen Lu to react, the two green ropes traveled in different directions of his body, tying Chen Lu firmly in a moment, and the blue belt did not react at all.

Chen Lu was a little puzzled, and took a closer look at his body, it was just a melon stem. He tried to recite the mantra silently, but there was no response. He used the "Universal Ten Directions Heavenly Steps" triple, not only was it useless, but this melon stem was strangled tighter on his body.

The king said, "Toss, toss hard, I tell you, the more you toss, the tighter it gets." ”

Chen Lu lost his temper and said, "Hey, what kind of bullshit king, all the good melons have been ruined by you, does it still taste like melons? Is it delicious?"

The king said proudly: "This king has been the king of melons for thousands of years, and he has been the leader of Hami for so many years, and he only knows that there is such a way to eat." Ask these kids, you say, is it delicious?"

Everyone said in unison, "Delicious!"

Chen Lu said: "Stop, stop, king, no matter how delicious it is." You kill people casually, this is not allowed by the ten parties in the world, aren't you afraid that Our Lady Taiyuan will punish you?"

King Gua smiled: "You guys really know a lot." Tell you, this king does not want their lives. Your envoy, who is neither male nor female, said that if you have official business to Haret, the king will only take out some juice from these people, and it may be delayed for a while. What else can Our Lady of Taiyuan do? The big deal is that I can only be punished for one crime of obstructing official business, and we people have less than 20 years of cultivation. Tell me, isn't it a good deal?"

At this time, a man reported: "My lord, the juice on these two people is almost gone, and now they can only maintain their lives." ”

"Change, don't you tell you that you don't need to ask! Again, don't ask, so many people from the Celestial Empire, just change. ”

A few melon soldiers dragged the two soldiers out.
