The sound of gongs and drums breaks the tranquility of this remote village. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 An official held a gong in his hand and walked forward slowly: "The government announced that after half a month, the Heavenly Dao Sect will open the mountain gate, and anyone who is interested in cultivating can go to Guyun Mansion City to test their qualifications."
The sound spread through the village with the footsteps of the officials.
Yujiao Village is built on the east water and has been fishing for generations. It is the most remote village to the east of Wufu.
A child ran out happily and chattered around the servant.
"Heavenly Dao Sect, what is Heavenly Dao Sect?"
"What is cultivation, cultivation?"
"Brother Xing, can you tell us?".
Xing Ming touched a child's head and explained to them with a smile, "The Heavenly Dao Sect is a very great cultivation sect. I heard that the head of the house is a real person, with his head on the sky and his feet on the ground, which is higher than the mountain."
"Taller than a mountain?". A child's eyes widened in surprise.
The rest of the children immediately asked Xing Ming, "It's higher than the mountain?"
"This?". Xing Ming was suddenly asked, and after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't hold back a word.
At this moment, a young man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes walked over slowly, and when he saw Xing Ming's deflated appearance, he let out a chuckle: "Don't listen to Brother Xing Ming's nonsense, the head of the Heavenly Dao Sect is really strong, and there is nothing wrong with this." But to say that he is taller than a mountain is too child's play."
"It turns out that Brother Xing is bragging again." A group of children reacted.
looked at Xing Ming with all his eyes, revealing a look of disgust, followed by a voice like a tide.
"Brother Xing Ming has been bragging every day since he became a servant in Yuxian County, and adults will fool us children if they don't listen."
"Shame, shame, shame, Brother Xing Ming, are you ashamed."
"My mother said that if Brother Xing Ming doesn't brag, it will be more difficult than the sun coming out of the west."
Xing Ming's old face couldn't help but turn red, and he didn't say it for a while. With a gong in his hand, he stood still at a loss. After a while, the old man looked at the children angrily: "What you said is not finished. Go and go, go and go".
"Loves to brag and has a bad temper, we won't play with you anymore". A child said loudly to Xing Ming.
The rest of the children looked at each other with disdain and grimaced: "We won't play with you anymore."
As soon as the words fell, the children turned around and ran away.
Watching the children run away, the young man thought of the words of those children, and couldn't help but let out a chuckle again: "Brother Xing, you really want to change, this is a bad problem of bragging."
"What's bad?". Xing Ming was annoyed by those children, and when he heard the question at this time, his tone was naturally mixed with some anger.
Xing Long listened to this slightly angry tone, and he was not annoyed, but just smiled at Xing Ming.
Xing Ming looked around and saw that the thatched huts were empty, and he couldn't help but be stunned and subconsciously asked him: "What about the people in the village? Why didn't I see anyone all the way?"
"Aren't I? Aren't the children? Xing Long obviously didn't react, and replied to Xing Ming.
Xing Ming immediately shook his head and explained to Xing Long: "Where have all the adults in the village gone? If these people are not here, how should I go back to the errands."
"Have you forgotten what day it is?". Xing Long did not reply immediately, but asked Xing Ming rhetorically.
Xing Ming was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and scratched his head puzzled: "What day?"
"That black snake has a long life". Xing Long explained to Xing Ming, with a hint of indignation in his tone.
Xing Ming was startled and slapped his head violently: "Oops, I actually forgot about this matter, this black snake is a scourge after all."
"Did you do what I told you last time?" Xing Long saw Xing Ming patting his head, but a trace of ominousness appeared in his heart.
Xing Ming swallowed violently and patted his chest: "Brother's character, can you still believe it? Our village is your brother and I have become an errand soldier, this matter is ......."
"Get to the point". Seeing that Xing Ming had an endless posture, Xing Long immediately interrupted and urged.
Seeing Xing Long interrupting his words so neatly, Xing Ming almost didn't choke to death by his own spit. stroked his chest a little, and let his breath gradually calm down: "Your brother, I have been out of the way, as early as a month ago, I had already reported the matter of this black snake to the county honor."
"A month ago?". Xing Long frowned, thinking carefully about the news he had heard in the past month, revealing a skeptical gaze.
Seeing Xing Long's gaze, he knew that he had been misunderstood. So Xing Ming explained to him bitterly: "After hearing this, the county respected it and reported it, but the result was like a stone sinking into the sea, silent."
"Stone sinking into the sea?". Thinking of the evil black snake, Xing Long couldn't help but be silent.
Xing Ming held the gong in one hand and patted Xing Long's shoulder with the other, thinking of what he had seen and heard in the county town and relieved him: "Actually, you can't complain about the official government in this matter, how long has the Heavenly Dao Sect been rising? How long has the county town been established?
"Besides, a month ago, the county honored ordered a thousand county soldiers to fight the black snake. As a result, we are on land, and they have no choice but to give up." Xing Ming looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he said the news.
Xing Long was taken aback and blurted out: "A month ago, the county soldiers fought with that black snake, but why didn't we hear the news?".
"This matter is secret, and only people in the government know about it. After all, Dongshui is so long, it is easy to find a place where no one lives." Xing Ming explained to Xing Long.
Xing Long thought of the news he had heard during this time, and showed a trace of sorrow: "I heard that the black snake has become more and more beautiful recently, and it has recruited soldiers and horses from the water tribe and called itself the East Water Demon King. If this goes on for a long time, where will our villages live?"
"Difficult". Xing Ming also sighed heavily. The black snake blocked the water and often raided the villages, making them worship blood and food playthings. At this time, the strength will expand, and the appetite will also increase greatly, and where is there a place for them to survive.
The two of them thought of the power of the black snake, and were silent for a moment.
After a long while, Xing Long let out a long sigh: "Isn't there a way to control this black snake?"
"Yes". Xing Ming replied without thinking, and his tone was very affirmative.
Xing Long couldn't help but be stunned when he heard such affirmative words, and subconsciously asked: "What way?"
"Have you ever heard of Guhe Longjun?" After all, Xing Ming was in the county seat, and he had been exposed to a lot more news than Xing Long, so he asked him rhetorically.
Xing Long thought for a while, and then nodded slowly: "Not only have I heard of it, but I have also sacrificed under the leadership of the village chief, and it is said that he is the god of clouds and rain."
"You are superficial, Guhe Longjun is not just a god of clouds and rain." Xing Ming explained to Xing Long, with an inexplicable look flashing in his eyes.
