Chapter VIII
"Hooray!" I don't know who shouted first, this sound was like a signal, and instantly ignited the passion of the villagers, they shouted and hugged each other, tears involuntarily slipped from the corners of their eyes, which family has not died in the mouth of this python in all these years.
Now that the source of their fear has died, they feel that the mountain that weighs on their heads has collapsed, and the villagers who hate the python so much have overcome the fear in their hearts, rushed to the body of the python and kicked it fiercely, but even if the python died, its hard body could not be moved by ordinary people, and all they gained was a pain in their feet.
With a slight wave of Lu Yu's hand, the Dharma Protector God turned into a golden light and disappeared. Looking at the overjoyed villagers in front of him, he couldn't help but smile, slaying demons and eliminating demons himself is also a bit of a fairy.
"Hmph, you still want to run, sir, I'm staring at you. ”
Lu Yu turned his head and saw He Yingchao holding the goddess with one hand, like a chicken in his hand, walking towards this side.
"Brother Lu, this goddess wanted to run away when she saw that the giant python was dead, but I caught her back. ”
At this time, how could the goddess have the majesty in front of her, seeing that the invincible river god in her mind was killed by someone else a few times, she was already trembling with fright, and at this time, she couldn't help but pee out when she saw Lu Yu looking at her.
Lu Yu touched his nose in embarrassment, he obviously looks very gentle, is it so terrifying.
Excitedly, the villagers noticed the situation here, and knelt down in front of Lu Yu and a few people to thank them for their help.
Lu Yu and a few people hurriedly helped these people up, and the villagers looked at the goddess who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and they were filled with righteous indignation, and they wanted to rush up and teach them a hard lesson.
"Don't rush yet, wait for me to ask about the situation. Lu Yu stretched out his hand to stop these impulsive villagers, he wanted to know how this goddess had become a traitor with this giant python.
The goddess had already been frightened, and she dared to hide it in the slightest, so she told the ins and outs of the matter.
It turned out that this goddess was once just a fisherman's wife, and the two often fished in this river for a living, and then one day there was lightning and thunder, and thunder and lightning hit the river, and the husband and wife were fishing in the river at this time, and they were frightened by this scene and fled in a hurry, but they met this python on the way and devoured her husband.
The goddess was so frightened that she had no master, so she made a frantic promise on the boat, saying that if she could be spared, she would give her a virgin boy and a girl to eat, because she had heard that demons liked to devour virgins the most.
I didn't expect this giant python to be able to understand human words and let go of the goddess. When the goddess returned home, she announced that she had met the river god, and that she had received the river god's will to sacrifice virgins to the village, but at first the villagers only thought she was crazy.
The goddess then caused the python to make waves and flood the fertile fields in the village, forcing the villagers to sacrifice boys and girls every once in a while.
Lu Yu listened to this story and pondered for a moment and said, "If you can understand human words, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary demon beast." However, at this time, they had no way of knowing the heel of the demon beast.
After that, Lu Yu asked He Yingchao to take his flying sword to divide the giant python, you must know that the demon beast is full of treasures. Its blood is an excellent talisman material, its hard scales can create treasure armor, and its flesh can strengthen its body, how could Lu Yu let go of these riches.
Just as Lu Yu was pondering the use of this demon beast, a commotion attracted his attention.
A butcher walked up to Lu Yu with a cyan hairpin: "Immortal Chief, just now when I was tending to the corpse of this demon beast, I found a hairpin in its belly, which is glowing. After speaking, he handed the hairpin that had been cleaned to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu carefully looked at the cyan hairpin, and found that this hairpin was like a flying sword, with a faint sword aura appearing on it, and secretly guessed in his heart: It was not a flying sword.
Thinking of this, his heart was hot, he was the first time to look at the flying sword that had been raised, but it was a pity that this flying sword spiritual Dacheng was afraid that he would choose his own master, just now he used his mind to communicate with the flying sword and found that the stone was sinking into the sea, and the spirit of the flying sword did not care about his favor at all, so he knew that he had no chance with this flying sword.
"What a beautiful hairpin!" He Chaolian next to her looked at the hairpin in Lu Yu's hand and couldn't help but sigh.
I saw that the originally quiet flying sword suddenly flashed with blue light, and it flew into He Yinglian's hand in an instant.
Lu Yu looked at the scene in front of him speechlessly, he felt that he didn't have the preferential treatment of the traverser at all, and he couldn't see any of the good systems and golden fingers, but now he finally saw that the treasure had nothing to do with him.
However, although Lu Yu is bitter in his heart, he will not be jealous of a little girl because of this. Therefore, he smiled and said to He Yinglian, who was full of expectations: "It seems that you have a fate with this treasure, so don't hurry up and accept it!"
Hearing this, He Yinglian was overjoyed, her face was overjoyed, and she said to Lu Yu crisply: "Thank you, Brother Lu!"
Putting the hairpin on his head, his bright face was covered with redness, and he said to Lu Yu with his eyes: "Brother Lu, am I good-looking!"
It was when he was a teenager that that touch of style actually made Lu Yu stunned for a moment.
Quickly dispelled the thoughts in his heart, this is still a minor girl on the earth, Lu Yu thinks that he has not yet reached this point.
"This is not an ordinary hairpin, it should be a flying sword, the flying sword has a spirit, you must not neglect it. Lu Yu hurriedly changed the topic.
He Yinglian seemed to see Lu Yu's embarrassment, and suddenly let out a silver bell-like laugh: "I know Brother Lu." That big brother Lu pulled for a long time, which made Lu Yu touch his nose in embarrassment.
Lu Yu and the others did not dare to stay here longer, declined the warm hospitality of the villagers, and left the small village in a hurry. They still have something to do, not to mention that they don't know if they have escaped the chase that came from nowhere.
The next few days fully proved that they had indeed gotten rid of the pursuit, perhaps the pursuers were too complacent, always thinking that dealing with two newcomers who had just entered the rivers and lakes should be a trivial matter, and did not take this matter to heart.
A few people walked calmly to the destination, where the capital of Yunzhou Prefecture is located - Wancheng.
As the capital of Yunzhou, Wancheng is the economic and political center of Yunzhou, and it is also the fief of the fifth son of the lord of Da Chen, with beautiful scenery and outstanding people.
Two hundred years of Chen Chengping, Wancheng at this time has been a big city with a population of hundreds of thousands, the city is tall and strong, and it looks like a giant beast crawling on the ground from a distance.
The tall city gate was already full of traffic, and Lu Yu and the three of them mixed in the crowd and quietly entered the city.
At this time, Wancheng is very lively, and the geographical location that extends in all directions determines its economic level, coupled with the addition of the state capital, creating such a pearl of Yunzhou.
Lu Yu looked at everything in the city with interest, it was difficult for him to imagine that he would one day cross the vast river of history and witness a piece of history with his own eyes.
At this moment, a carriage roared by, and the people around it avoided one after another, with resentful expressions on their faces!
"Where is this carriage, so arrogant, there is no royal law?" He Yingchao said in wonder.
"This little brother looks like a foreigner!" asked a warm-hearted person around him.
"Could it be that this carriage has no origins?" Lu Yu asked out loud.
"You outsiders naturally don't know, but we old people all know that this carriage just now was from King Huai's mansion. We usually hide when we see it, who doesn't know that this King Huai is the fifth son of the current lord, and he is very favored!"
He Yinglian was still a little indignant even when she heard the name of King Huai, for those of them in the rivers and lakes, they had never been very respectful of the laws of the imperial court. However, his brother grabbed her and whispered, "Don't make trouble, don't forget that we have a mission!"
He Chaolian could only stomp her feet fiercely and followed her brother to the Taoist temple.
