Chapter 275
Qin Zhongquan smiled: "It's night, and it's not something that can't be said." If you're not in a hurry to leave, I'll be able to tell you. ”
The fox looked at Lu Chenyao and Qingji, and saw that Qingji looked like he was ready to listen to the story, and Lu Chenyao also nodded at him, meaning that he wanted to listen.
So the fox turned to Qin Zhongquan and said, "If Qin Daoyou is free, you might as well talk to us." ”
It turned out that the big river that flowed through their village was originally called Wenxian River. But when it came to their section, they were later renamed Changsheng River.
So why change the name, it has to start from a long time ago, three thousand years ago.
Wen Xianhe, don't look at the current appearance, the wind and waves are calm, in fact, in the early days, there are days of lightning, thunder and heavy rain, and it is not peaceful here.
It is said that at that time, every time there was thunder and rain in the sky, there would be huge waves churning in the Wenxian River.
The youkai didn't have much of a job, it just often brought lightning to the shore, and their village was often attacked by lightning at that time.
Of course, they were monks, so they naturally planned to catch the monsters and restore peace to the village.
So they specially found a thunder sky and went out to hunt demons.
Who knows, their village was hit by an unprecedented giant lightning attack. And the monster is nowhere to be found.
When they returned to the village, they found that the village had been almost destroyed by lightning, the house and yard were completely rotten, and there were casualties.
In such a situation, one of the choices they face is to move out of the original place and rebuild the village. One is to continue to deal with youkai and restore peace to this side.
One of them said that if they were to move, they would have to move far away to avoid the monster's attack.
In this way, they are used to living by the river, and this area is full of aura and living resources, and many people feel reluctant to go.
Besides, if their human cultivation was suppressed by a monster, they would not be reconciled.
So I stayed where I was, repaired the damaged house, and continued to live there.
On a sunny day, I went into the water to find a youkai a few times, but found nothing.
As a result, the next time there was thunder, the village was once again struck by heavy thunder.
The defense of the monks of Zhanghua Village could not resist the violent lightning strike at all, and their houses were destroyed again.
But fortunately, this time there was a guard, only occasionally someone was slashed, but no one was in serious trouble.
After that, the people of Zhanghua Village faced up with monsters who could use lightning.
Every time the lightning and thunder roared, they arranged for the old and weak women and children to leave. Then if you cultivate to a higher level, you will go to find the monster who is making waves.
After a long time, one day a villager told them about the village head, Qin Zhongquan.
said that he had heard a legend that the monsters in the river like this were haunted because there was no river god, and he needed to invite a river god to suppress the demons.
When everyone heard that it was feasible, they set up an altar to invite the river god on a sunny day.
The weather was exceptionally good, the sun was shining on the earth, and there was not even a silk wind.
After the offerings were placed, the village chief led a group of villagers to begin to ask the gods.
The village head, Qin Zhongquan, first bowed to heaven and earth three times, and then began to chant his nerves, and finally told them about their difficulties here, asking for them to be assigned a fairy town.
It is also miraculous, as soon as the village chief Qin Zhongquan finished inviting God, he saw a gust of wind rising sharply on the surface of the Wenxian River, and he disappeared into the water in the next second.
The villagers were overjoyed and felt that they had succeeded in asking God. After that, the river god suppressed it, and the monster could no longer make waves.
But as soon as they were happy, they saw that there was no wind and waves in the river, and in a blink of an eye the waves were already a hundred and ten feet high.
The monk was well-informed, and he could see at a glance that it was two monks fighting.
So the village chief took the people away and observed the situation in the river.
It wasn't until the end of the day that the river returned to calm.
Speaking of which, there were several cultivators in Zhanghua Village, but no one could see the dignity of both sides of the fight from the wind and waves on the river.
Now I don't know if the river god they invited won, or the monster won.
Qin Zhongquan looked at it, since he didn't know who won, then ask!
So he looked towards the river and asked, "I said, is the senior of the river god here?"
So he heard a male voice like a bell saying, "I am the Ruyi Immortal Saint, and now I live in this river as the Eternal River, so remember it." I will keep you at peace, but you need to offer sacrifices every thirty days!"
Qin Zhongquan began to complain in his heart, inviting this immortal, he didn't do it for nothing, and he even had to be rewarded. But they are immortals, and they have indeed contributed.
So Qin Zhongquan asked, "May I ask the river god senior, was that monster beaten away before, and what sacrifices do you need to worship?"
"It doesn't matter what you want, you can eat it. As for the lightning razer, I have already destroyed it!"
When Qin Zhongquan heard it, people wanted to eat, so it was simple. And people have merit in killing demons, so let's be filial.
So they offered food to the river gods in the river every thirty days.
Later, they found that it did not happen here, and the thunder and lightning struck the village, but they were somewhat satisfied with the river god.
Even these people began to try, occasionally going down to the river to catch spirit fish, but they were all safe. So the villagers were reassured. Strive to worship this river god named Ruyi Immortal Venerable.
But gradually, they realized that something was wrong.
The villagers found out that they were fine, but one day someone saw a group of monks disappearing from the river.
Since then, they have found that as long as the pedestrians pass, there are those who can get by, and there are those who can't.
As long as they can't get through, if they don't get into the river during the day, they can hold out until the end of the night, and they can pass.
So when the villagers found out that this river god was not completely harmless, they were a little apprehensive.
Finally, one day, when a father and son were passing by, they angered the river god because of the reception of a villager.
The river god also did not let the people of their village enter and leave the place freely during the daytime.
The villagers were shocked and began to find out the cause.
Later, after learning that there were outsiders in the village, I basically guessed the meaning of the river god.
So Qin Zhongquan took the lead and worshiped this river god. Then he asked, "Dare to ask the Ruyi Immortal Saint, why is your old man angry?"
The water was silent.
Qin Zhongquan saw that this river god was really angry, and hurriedly said: "We foolish people don't understand the rules, and we have offended your old man Ruyi Immortal Saint Venerable, and I will make amends to you today, and I ask the Holy Venerable for forgiveness." ”
As they spoke, they poured many offerings into the river. In the end, the father and son were expelled from the villagers' homes, which can be regarded as calming the anger of the river god.
Since then, the villagers of Zhanghua Village no longer dare to take in passers-by.
Of course, after this incident, some timid people quietly moved out of here.
And Qin Zhongquan belongs to the bold, and there are also families who are inseparable from their homeland, but they have lived and worked here in peace and contentment for thousands of years.
It's just that some of the remaining villagers don't like to go out and walk around the village.
As soon as he finished speaking, he said, "Then you are taking us into the house now, aren't you afraid that the Holy Venerable will be angry?"
Qin Zhongquan: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I said it, you can leave as soon as the time is over." That Ruyi Immortal Venerable seems to be afraid of the darkness, and when he arrives at night, the barrier will be withdrawn, and you will not be able to detect it in my house at this time. ”
The fox said: "Then may I ask Qin Daoyou, what is the essence of this Ruyi Immortal Saint Venerable, is it a human or a demon?"
Qin Zhongquan said: "The main body is a crab, and some time ago, we saw the phantom of the main body when it advanced. ”
Qingji: "Then you just don't care about other people's lives or deaths?"
Village Chief Qin Zhongquan waved his hand: "No, no, we put up a street sign on the other side of the river, which vaguely indicates that you are not allowed to come in, why didn't you see it?"
Lu Chenyao frowned and said, "Not only did I not see the street signs, I didn't even see this river!"
The village chief's face suddenly changed at this time, and said, "I think a few of you should leave quickly, and you can leave as soon as the time is over." Now it seems that after the Saint Venerable has advanced, the range of enchantments that can be arranged is even wider, and I'm afraid it won't be convenient for me to keep you any longer......"
Lu Chenyao and the others also knew that they were also talking to them out of kindness. Now they have also learned about Entu, and try not to cause trouble to others.
So the group left the village chief's house again, and found a stone pile outside in the opposite direction of the river, and sat down to wait.
The fox said, "Fortunately, we are fast, and the monsters in the river can't make a move!"
