Chapter 9: The Birthday of the River God

The dark underwater world, even on a sunny day, is gloomy overhead, like a dark cloud covering the top, which makes Chen Xian, who is used to land life, quite uncomfortable. However www.biquge.info there are also unique scenery that are not found on land, and there are some rare treasures on land. Chen Xian watched the scenery while scraping pearls and jade oysters, and his mood was also comfortable.

Putting a fist-sized pearl into the Qiankun bag again, Chen Xian couldn't help frowning: I have been wandering around the bottom of this river for most of the day, where is this river god mansion?

Since he was going to fish in troubled waters on the birthday of the river god, Chen Xian naturally wanted to explore the road first, make some arrangements in advance, and choose an escape route. But Chen Xian searched for most of the river bottom, and he saw a lot of pearl shells, but he didn't even see a shadow of the River God Mansion.

"Alas, the otaku has been doing it for a long time, and I can't even ask for directions, I'm so stupid!" Chen Xian learned from the pain and decided to put out his tender face and ask the local natives.

After having an idea, Chen Xian no longer collected those pearl and jade shells that were priceless in the mortal world, and writhed the little snake demon and wandered around the bottom of the river.

After traveling for a few miles, Chen Xian found a herring demon with a seven-fold qi refining body and a body length of three meters playing leisurely at the bottom of the river.

"Wait a minute, brother fish, I have something I want to ask. Far away, Chen Xian couldn't wait to shout at the herring demon. This is also something that can't be helped, the other party's speed is much faster than him, and if he doesn't say hello, maybe this herring demon will run away.

The herring demon stopped and asked in a wrenched manner, "You...... You are...... In the ...... Tell me...... Words?"

"Yes, you wait for me, I'll come right over. Seeing that the other party was stammering, Chen Xian wanted to learn the other party's tone to speak and tease him, but there was a big gap in cultivation, what if the other party was annoyed and angry, what should he do if he swallowed himself in one bite, it was safe to see it, and it was better not to do anything.

"You...... What's the matter...... Just ask...... bar. When Chen Xian swam in front of him, the herring fish demon stammered and asked.

"I want to ask how to get to the Xiahe Divine Mansion?" Chen Xian said.

"You...... Ask what this is for?" the herring demon asked again, his voice becoming much more fluent.

"It's not like the birthday of the river god is coming, I'm going to give gifts. Chen Xian replied.

"You follow the river...... God is ...... What the...... Relationship, why...... Why do you want to give him a gift?" the herring demon asked again.

Damn, there are so many questions, are you 100,000 why? You stammered so much nonsense, and Chen Xian replied casually: "The river god is my uncle." ”

"River God...... Isn't it the Arowana who has attained the Tao, his nephew...... How could the son be...... Where's the snake, boy...... You...... You're kidding me...... It's a matter of rage!" the herring fish demon looked angry, and his whole body was full of real anger, as if he was about to make a move.

"Wait, I'm not done yet, the river god is my uncle's nephew's uncle's cousin's eldest aunt's brother's sister-in-law's brother-in-law's brother's brother. After Chen Xian's words, even he didn't know what his relationship with the river god was, let alone this herring demon with an abnormal head.

I saw the herring demon stumbling and asking, "Uncle's ...... Nephew's ...... Uncle's ...... My cousin's ......" for a long time, Leng was speechless.

"In short, we are relatives, you just tell me how to get to the River God Mansion, why do you ask so much?" Chen Xian waved his tail and said impatiently, he was fed up with this herring demon, just ask for directions, you point to the direction, just say the distance, ask the east and west, it's really annoying.

"Oh, oh, the Water God's Mansion from here...... two ...... upstream Barry...... And there we are...... Eh, you'll wait, I'll talk...... Still...... I didn't finish it......"

got the information he wanted, Chen Xian hurriedly flashed, he didn't want to stay with this stammering word anymore, he couldn't afford to hurt it!

According to the guidance of the herring fish demon, Chen Xian went upstream, and it took three or four hours to finally come to the River God Mansion.

Looking at it from a distance, the area of the River God Mansion is not large, and it is also a square circle, but it is very exquisite, white jade is the wall, glazed is the tile, bronze is the door, and gold is the column. The rushing river was blocked by a translucent light shield, and from a distance, it had a nine-point immortal atmosphere. In front of the main gate, there is a pair of Zhenhe jade unicorns, standing four mighty crab generals, on the plaque, four gilded characters of Xihe Shuifu, shining.

"The four big crabs in the foundation building period are guarding the door, does this river god deserve to be quite majestic?" Chen Xian muttered, and his brows furrowed: I originally thought that the gatekeepers should be some little demons refining qi, and I should be able to sneak in by using the cloud concealment technique, but I don't want people to guard the door are all foundation building demon cultivators, the difference in level is too great, and the cloud concealment technique has nothing to hide in front of others, and things are a little troublesome.

"Fortunately, I expected this situation and prepared early, otherwise I would have to be blind. Chen Xian's face was full of complacency, and he admired his wisdom and martial arts.

After going around the Xihe Water Mansion a few times, Chen Xian found a place to cultivate. There are still two days before the birthday of the river god, these time can not be wasted, cultivation is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, you can't slack off at any time, you must make full use of every second of your life, and strive to go upstream.

....................................

The time of cultivation always passed extremely fast, and before I knew it, two days passed like this, and I couldn't make a little wave in this dark underwater world. Of course, if there are waves at the bottom of the water, it proves that the typhoon is very powerful.

Today is the 786th birthday of the Xihe River God, and the Xihe Water Mansion has changed its quiet and solemn style in the past. Since the beginning of the day, the gift-giving aquatic spirits have come one after another, and after each of them has sent congratulatory gifts, they either leave directly, or enter the water mansion with a half-transformed old turtle carrying this turtle shell.

Around Shen Shi, a white snake with more than four feet in his eyes and blood-red eyes, with a gift box in his mouth, came to the front of the water mansion, put down the gift box, and said to the ceremonial official who recorded the gift: "The jade dragon real person sent the best magic weapon to the moon whip, and I wish the West River water gods and immortals to enjoy forever, and live with the sky." ”

The real person is an honorific title for the monk above the Yuan Infant, Chen Xian is purely pulling the tiger skin, pulling the big drum, and the purpose is to enter the water mansion. As for the Jade Dragon Zhenren, it is just a nonsense character of Chen Xian, and the Moon Whip is naturally the one left by the crocodile demon.

Chen Xian put down the gift, turned around and pretended to leave, and the old turtle who greeted the guest immediately said, "This ...... My lord, everyone has arrived, why don't you go in and drink a glass of water and wine before leaving...... "It's hard for this old turtle, with his respect for the foundation, he actually called an adult to a little demon who refining qi, no wonder he stammered."

Chen Xian pretended to be silent for a while, and then said: "It's okay, anyway, the real person didn't say when he would go back, so I bothered him." ”

"There, the person who comes is a guest, please inside. After the old turtle finished speaking, he led the way in front of the head, and Chen Xian followed in a leisurely manner.

After the old turtle entered the Water God Mansion all the way, he entered a large hall, there were not many guests inside, only a hundred or so people, basically all of them were demon cultivators above the foundation, and there were six or seven demon cultivators who couldn't see the depth, Chen Xian thought to himself that he should be a master of Jindan, and it was normal for him to not be able to see through it.

While Chen Xian was secretly thinking, the old turtle led him to the main seat and said to the middle-aged man on the main seat: "My lord, this is the messenger sent by the real person of the Jade Dragon to give gifts. ”

Chen Xian immediately bowed to the middle-aged man and said, "Little demon Xiaobai, I wish the river gods and immortals eternal blessings, and longevity and heaven." ”

"Jade Dragon real person?" the West River Water God looked at Chen Xian with an inquiring expression.

"The real person came from the South Ganbu Continent, intended to open a dojo near the West River, heard the birthday of the river god, I wanted to congratulate in person, I didn't want an old friend to visit suddenly, I couldn't get out, and there was no disciple under the seat, so I sent the little demon to send a congratulatory gift to show friendship. Chen Xian has been preparing for two days to talk about this panic, and he is confident that there should be no loopholes, so he opened his mouth and said the same as the truth.

"Yulong Zhenren has a heart, and if you want to go back to the descendants to say hello, you will say that you will visit in a few days. The god of water in the West River said with a gentle face.

It seems that his panic has not been exposed, Chen Xian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately replied: "The little demon will live up to the trust of the river god, and he will bring the original words." Oh, by the way, I'm a snake now, and my face is covered with scales, and they can't see it no matter how red my face is.

"Prime Minister Gui, you go and arrange a seat for this little friend, the birthday banquet is about to start, and you can't neglect the guests. At this time, the river god said to the old turtle on the side.

Old turtle, oh, it should be the turtle prime minister who immediately received the order, and said to Chen Xian: "Distinguished guest, please come with me." After speaking, he went down to His Highness, and after Chen Xian confessed to the water god, he followed the turtle prime minister.

Chen Xian followed Prime Minister Gui Cheng to sit in front of a jade case, and found that the position was not bad, quite close to the main seat, which belonged to a more noble one, basically on a par with those Jindan monks.

There were some melons and fruits on the jade case, and Chen Xian was greedy to see it. Since coming to this world, Chen Xian has not eaten delicious fruits for a long time, and the fruits he can eat are all bitter mountain peaches and wild plums, and hawthorn bayberry that is so sour that he has lost his teeth. But in order to play the role of a good real messenger, Chen Xian had to endure the urge to transform into a glutton, and ate in small bites.

As soon as Chen Xian finished nibbling an apple, the Xihe Water God sitting on the main seat coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention, he stood up with a glass of wine and said, "Thank you for coming to my birthday banquet in your busy schedule, here, I salute you." ”

Everyone raised their glasses and drank together, and the water god of the West River continued: "Next, I announce that the feast has begun!"

The words fell, the sound of silk and bamboo started, and a group of fish girls appeared, offering beautiful songs and dances for everyone, and the fish people were attentive and served delicious food. For a time, the field was staggered, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

Chen Xian watched coldly, and secretly said in his heart to pretend, see how long you can pretend.

After eating and drinking, Chen Xian said to the Prime Minister Gui Cheng who was sitting next to him: "It's not too early, the little demon should also retire, and I will trouble you to say thank you to Lord River God for his hospitality for me." ”

"The birthday banquet has just begun, why should the distinguished guests rush back, why don't you drink a few more glasses?" the prime minister greeted warmly.

Chen Xian thought to himself, when they were fighting with a group of Jindan Yuanying, wouldn't I, a little qi refining soldier, stay here and look for death? ”

"In that case, then the old decay will send you. Prime Minister Kamechi said and got up.

"No, no, the little demon is young, just now I bothered you to greet the old man, and I was already reluctant to go, how dare I work your old man to send it away, and sit down, the little demon will leave by itself, don't send it." "Chen Xian is in a hurry, if you follow, how can Lao Tzu go to the treasure house to steal the treasure?" So as soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Prime Minister Gui to react, he ran out of the hall.

After leaving the main hall, he found that Prime Minister Gui did not follow, and Chen Xian breathed a sigh of relief. He came to the corner of the corridor, and while running the abyss, he silently chanted a spell in his heart, and saw a cloud of water vapor gather from all around, forming a white mist that enveloped his body. After the white mist dissipated, Chen Xian's body disappeared into the corridor along with his breath.
