Hanging Bridge Sword (I)

The moonlight hit the river, and Li Daoyi in the distance seemed to be arguing about something, looking indignant. But he didn't look at the girl, just pointed to the sky and the ground.

Xu Changan put away the round jade talisman, but still separated it from the round jade talisman given by Mo Qingshui. What she gives is always in her heart.

Xu Changan bought another similar one, but he simply heard that it was a pair, and he thought about a person in his heart, and he would think about making a pair of things she gave.

But what she gives is what she gives after all, and she has to take it to heart.

After Xu Changan loaded the other one, he walked towards Li Daoyi.

Li Daoyi scolded and scolded, pointing to the sky for a while, and facing the river for a while, the girl in thin clothes cried so much that it rained.

This is the southernmost part of the territory of the Holy Dynasty, it is common sense that the south is warm and the north is cold, the north is cold and the ground is freezing, and the south is shining brightly; the warm sun in the north is not dry, and the south can ask people to shed a layer of skin.

The south at this time of year is considered to be a more comfortable south.

The girl faced the sparkling river, crying, and the moonlight hit her face, as if it was full of pearls, which was not pretty, but it was also beautiful.

If it is an ordinary girl, it is time to help the family do some work, and if you see the young man you like, you will run back to the house with your face half covered shyly. If there is a loving mother in the family, when she finds out, she will laugh at the girl, but if you laugh and laugh, which parent in the world will not worry about her child, and when she knows that her girl is interested, she will start to make noise.

If the man hears about it and is interested, he will come to the door to propose.

Since then, a good relationship has been made.

A girl of her age should be facing these things, but she doesn't know why she cries at the river.

Li Daoyi knew that Xu Changan was coming, and he scolded even more fiercely.

Xiao Bai stood by the river, probing his brain, and for a while stretched out his little white paws in the moonlight, extremely small splashes of water. If it's not miscalculated, it's probably catching fish.

The joys and sorrows of human beings are not the same, let alone with a cat.

Except for the life and death of his father Lao Hei Cat and Xu Changan, as well as the winning or losing of gambling money, other things almost can't affect it.

It had a feeling lately that it was about to meet its father.

Two years ago, Lao Hei came to the south and followed the elders and disciples to catch the monster that was making waves in the South China Sea.

And now that it has come to the south, its premonition is getting stronger and stronger.

Even now that it has time, it doesn't want to gamble, but pretends to be serious, but carelessly catches fish.

Cats have cats' hearts, and people have people's difficulties.

Xu Changan walked over, Xiaobai raised his head and called at him, Xu Changan glanced at it, it knew that his eyes were full of concern, and that was enough. So, turning his head and continuing to stare at the quiet river, he inadvertently stretched out his evil little paw and raised a splash.

Xu Changan approached, the girl sat on the ground, folded her arms and sobbed quietly, in this night that was not cold, it seemed extremely lonely and cold.

Li Daoyi also stopped cursing, and when he saw Xu Changan coming, he said directly: "Xiao Daozi, this matter must be managed." ”

Xu Changan was a little puzzled, how did he become a "little rice", but he quickly figured it out. Coming out of Jingmen Prefecture, Lan Yu and Li Daoyi gave Xu Changan a name, Lan Dao.

"What's wrong?" After Xu Changan figured it out, it seemed natural, he wanted to go and see the six great competitions, so he had a name!

Li Daoyi sighed, glanced at the girl's back, and sighed.

"Have you watched too much of "The Fox Demon", hurry up and say it directly, don't look like you are compassionate and want to stop talking. If we can help, the people in the rivers and lakes will act chivalrous and righteous, and they should take action. Even if you laugh and tell me, I will agree, don't play with me now. ”

Li Daoyi glanced at Xu Changan with resentment, and then talked about this girl.

This river is called the Fengwu River, also known as the Tonghai River. From north to south, countless small streams and rivers converge to form this large river, which runs towards the sea.

The river is wide, and the successive dynasties have governed the water and built the dam, which has now been peaceful and serene Tonghai River.

Originally, there was no wind and no waves, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, but in the past ten years, there has been a bad custom.

Every two years, a mage would be invited to come and find a girl in the villages on both sides of the river who was in the prime of life or a girl in the prime of cardamom, and throw herself into the river to pray that there would be no wind or waves.

On a good day, they would dress up the women and put them on a large bamboo raft surrounded by animal sacrifices, so that the women would drift in the river.

Usually it is released in the dark night, and when the woman is put into the river, the people on both sides of the river will celebrate with great fanfare.

By dawn, you may still be able to find a raft, but both the people and the offerings will disappear. When the people saw this, their hearts relaxed. In the next two years, there will definitely be no wind or waves, the fishermen will benefit, and at the same time, the surrounding rice will also be harvested.

Now, exactly two years later, this girl has been chosen to be the sacrifice of tomorrow to Hebo.

The local county guard also knew that this custom was not good and contrary to the harmony of heaven, but before he came, the custom existed, and he had no choice.

Besides, if you keep the water and soil on one side, and generally stabilize it for a few years, you will definitely be transferred out. So he forced himself to be dumb and blind.

Xu Changan sighed, this matter is a little difficult to manage.

If there is a bully of men and women, and a cultivator is a disaster, he will definitely fight for righteousness. But there are two things to say about this Hebo. Although he has good water quality, it is also relative to the rivers around Weicheng, and when he encounters such a big river, he is afraid that he will disappear if he goes down.

And more importantly, he couldn't prove to the people that there was no Hebo.

If there was really a water monster or the demon clan in the river, it would be impossible for him to show it in front of the people, after all, only a few people knew about the existence of the "immortal master".

If the people knew about the existence of the "immortal master", they would be able to prolong their life and be able to walk with a sword. What if everyone wants to cultivate to become an "immortal master"? If the people know that although there are qualifications limited, at that time, the people will definitely want to give it a try, and it will be no problem to give it a try, knowing that they will die if they don't hope. But in the past few years, grain production will definitely decrease, or at least there will be more turmoil.

So, that's where the difficulty lies. He Xu Changan is not easy to manage, and it is often much easier to fight and kill than to conquer people's hearts.

In the end, Xu Changan and Li Daoyi glanced at each other, and could only say: "Let's guard her tomorrow night, if there is really any evil trouble, we will behead her and save her life." ”

Li Daoyi knew the difficulty and nodded.

He walked up to the girl and whispered, "You go home first, don't worry, we will protect you." ”

The girl raised her head and glanced at him, Li Daoyi looked at the face of the pear blossom with rain, and his heart softened, so he put his hands together, slowly opened, and suddenly a purple light appeared in his hand. In the end, that purple light turned into a flower and bloomed in Li Dao's palm.

The girl burst into tears and laughed, glanced at Li Daoyi firmly, and said "um".

......

The two sent the girl home, and when they saw a row of wooden houses by the river and a drying net, Li Daoyi and Xu Changan only dared to follow from a distance.

"It's all said, let you take care of that girl, if the girl doesn't see tomorrow, the village chief and the mage will take you and me to sacrifice Hebo!" The woman's sharp voice came out, and Xu Changan and Li Daoyi could hear it from a distance.

"I'm an old man, you're an old woman, Hebo won't want it. ”

"Then what should I do, anyway, if the dead girl doesn't come back, our life will definitely be difficult!" said the woman, and she began to cry.

"You have received the pensions from more than 10 villages on both sides of the strait, what should we do? Could it be that you still have to return those silver taels for nothing?"

As he spoke, the room fell silent.

The girl was already in tears, her hands and feet were numb, and her whole body was cold.

"The beggar said that the daughter would come back. A deep male voice came out.

"You also believe the words of a beggar, and I also hope that the dead girl will come back, otherwise we won't be able to live our lives!"

The girl turned her head to look at the two of them, and saw the encouraging eyes of the two, Li Daoyi put his hands together, slowly opened, and made a flower blooming motion, the girl looked at the little Taoist, a light appeared in her eyes, nodded heavily, plucked up her courage, and knocked on the door.
