Chapter 159: The Monster in the Wei River

A golden heavenly thunder descended from the white misty sky and slashed at Dai Li's remnant soul, but he was not directly scattered by the heavenly thunder like Jin Dasheng, but the illusory figure became a little dimer, almost transparent.

With Li Ge's current cultivation, he could only barely lead a heavenly thunder, but this heavenly thunder bombarded down, but it failed to disperse Dai Li's remnant soul. Obviously, judging from the latter's near-transparent figure, it only needs to draw a thunderbolt to destroy it.

After summoning the heavenly thunder, Li Ge, who had a languishing face, saw Dai Li pinching the hand held in front of him, and he didn't have time to hesitate too much. With a grit of his teeth, he raised his hand with all his strength and pulled down the second heavenly thunder.

'Boom~' The second thunder sound sounded when Dai Li finished performing the spell, and it directly slashed at Dai Li, who was about to raise his hand to cast the spell. Then, his dim remnant let out a terrible snort, and his figure turned into a cloud of white light and burrowed into the gray boulder behind him. Then, a square light gate with a height of half a zhang and a width appeared on the boulder.

At the edge of the small flat land on the top of the mountain, Li Ge, who had led down two heavenly thunderbolts one after another, looked at the square light gate on the gray boulder and showed a bitter smile, then closed his eyes and fell to the ground and fainted.

At the same time, at the stone table next to the mushroom-shaped giant tree in the Yunfu Realm, Qingchen, who was dressed in a purple robe, looked at the giant tree with a complicated expression, and muttered to himself, "I can't enter the world behind this tree, nephew Sun, whether it's good or bad depends on your creation." ”

......

One day in early May, in a small county town called Guifeng County, under the jurisdiction of Zhangde Prefecture, a horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of the county yamen of Guifeng County. In the car, three people walked down from the inside in turn.

The first to get out of the car was a little monk with a round face and a bald head and an obese body. He was followed by a young man dressed in a bright red robe with a childish face. After the boy, there was a young Taoist priest with a rough face and a dark gray coarse cloth robe.

After the three of them got out of the car, the young Taoist priest said a few words to the coachman, and then led the little monk and the red-robed young man straight to the door of the mansion.

"Stop, what are you doing?" The three of them walked to the gate of the palace and were stopped by a soldier in front of the ya.

"Go and call you adults out. The young Taoist priest smiled slightly, took out a wooden token from his waist and handed it to the soldier. The soldier took the token and looked at it carefully, smiled and nodded, and then ran towards the yamani.

Not long after, an old man in official uniform led the soldier who ran into the official office in a hurry to the door of the official office.

"The Earthquake Division has finally sent a master. After the old man in official uniform saw the three of them, he handed back the wooden token given to him by the soldiers to the young Taoist priest.

"Poor Dao Wu has a request, this is my third brother Mao 18 and my younger brother Jingchen. Wu Youqiu took the Guoshi card and put it into the Qiankun bag on his side, and then introduced himself.

"It turned out to be Master Wu, Master Xiaomao and Little Master Jingchen, the old man Ma Shiping, who was the county official of this Guifeng County. The county magistrate raised his hand and saluted Wu Youqiu, and also opened his mouth to introduce himself. Then he continued, "Three masters, please follow me into the ya, and I will tell you what is going on here." ”

Subsequently, the three brothers went to Guifeng County under the leadership of Ma Shiping.

"Three masters, please use tea. After beckoning the three of them to a hall, the official of Ma County ordered the servant to pour a few cups of hot tea.

"Amitabha, Ma County Official, do you have steamed buns in your house? Little monk, I'm a little hungry. After taking a seat, Jingchen took a sip of tea from the teacup, and then touched his stomach and spoke.

"Yes, I'll order someone to get it. Ma Shiping nodded, and instructed the servant who entered the hall with tea, "Five fingers, go and get some food for the masters." ”

"Master Haole~" The servant who called the five fingers nodded in response and ran directly out of the living room.

"Lord Ma, when we came from the Thaumaturgical Pavilion, we also heard about some things in your county, but we don't know what the details are. After Wu Youqiu sat down, he looked at the old county official surnamed Ma and asked with a smile.

"Okay~ This thing is like this in detail. Ma Shiping walked to a wooden chair in the hall and sat down, and spoke helplessly.

"In the west of the county seat of our Guifeng County, there is a river called the Wei River, and on both sides of the river there is a small town called Beach Town. Since the Wei River is a canal connecting the northwest to transport materials, this Beachtown is also the most prosperous town in our Guifeng County. ”

"Today, March, after dozens of days of heavy rain, after the rain stopped, a sarcophagus rushed up from the riverbank, and the people from Beach Town reported it to me. After the old man went to investigate, he found that the sarcophagus was tightly sealed and did not dare to open it easily, so he went back to the county seat and invited an old Taoist priest in our county. ”

After the old man led the old Taoist priest to Beach Town, he opened the sarcophagus, and after opening the coffin, we found a small wooden coffin about half a zhang long, two feet high and wide, with talismans all over the body. After some discussion with the old Taoist priest, the old man decided not to move the coffin, but to reload the wooden coffin into the sarcophagus and sink it into the river. ”

"But after we resank the sarcophagus to the bottom of the river that day, he floated to the beach the next day. Ma Shi said this and sighed.

"Master Ma, then you opened the small wooden coffin in the sarcophagus later, right?" Mao Shiba, who was listening silently on the side, saw that the old county official stopped and asked.

"No," the county magistrate shook his head, and said, "After the sarcophagus rushed to the riverbank, the old man felt that something was wrong, so he discussed it with the old Taoist priest, decided to open the altar to do a ritual, and then burned the small wooden coffin. ”

The next day, the old Taoist priest opened an altar by the Wei River and performed the Dharma. After the ritual was put to the ground, everything was in order. The old man ordered someone to carry the small wooden coffin to the Wei River, sprinkle it with lamp oil and burn it. But who would have thought that the wooden coffin was halfway burned, and suddenly it rained heavily, and the flames in the wooden coffin were extinguished, and just when the flames were extinguished, a monster ran out of the wooden coffin. ”

"After the monster escaped from the coffin, it went straight into the Wei River. Since then, a child has disappeared every few days in the town of Beach, on the banks of the Wei River, and when the children have disappeared, their bodies have appeared on the riverbank the next day. ”

After the death of several children in the town, the old man reported the matter to the imperial court on the one hand, and on the other hand, he sent some officers and soldiers and the old Taoist priest from the county to patrol the edge of Beach Town. However, on the night of their patrol, the old Taoist priest was killed by the monster in the river, and two of the four soldiers who patrolled with him died in the Wei River. Today, nearly twenty people have died along the Nabiwei River. ”

After listening to Ma Shiping's story, Wu Youqiu, Mao Shibai and Jingchen all bowed their heads and fell silent. After a long time, the silence of the hall was broken by the movement of the servant named Five Fingers who had come in with some food.

"Three masters, you will use these foods first, and the old man will order someone to prepare a hearty meal for you later. Ma Shiping saw the servant's five fingers put the food on the table beside the three brothers, and said in an earnest tone.

"Master Ma, what does the monster that ran out of the wooden coffin look like?" Coming back from his contemplation, Wu Youqiu hurriedly asked.
