As the two spoke, they approached, only to see the female disciples pull out a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl from a family, pull her to the female Taoist priest, and ask, "Master, can you look at this girl?"

The girl's face was small, her face was full of panic, and she looked at the female Taoist priest at a loss. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The female Taoist priest looked at her, but before she could speak, a middle-aged couple had followed the girl out of the house, ran to her in two or three steps, stuffed more than a dozen copper coins into her hand, and hurriedly said: "Aunt Dao, I'm tired!

The female Taoist priest quietly took the copper coin, looked at the girl carefully, shook her head and said, "No, the hands are too thick!"

When Li Sanbai heard this, he also looked at the girl, and sure enough, his hands seemed to be a little rough because of his frequent work, but his appearance was delicate and his body was slender, and he was still very moving.

When the middle-aged couple heard the words of the female Taoist, they were immediately overjoyed, and they were shocked again, and said in a loud voice: "Daogu Mingjian! Daogu Mingjian!"

The female Taoist priest nodded and said, "Next." ”

And the crowd played the drums and departed, and went to another house.

After they left, the middle-aged couple breathed a sigh of relief, hugged the girl and said, "Su Ying, you have calculated the ghost gate!"

Su Ying's body trembled slightly, nodded, and said in horror: "Hmm!"

He buried his head in his parents' arms, as if frightened.

When Li Sanbai saw it, he walked over with Qin Xuewei and arched his hand to them, "Three, dare to ask what that group of people are doing?"

The man in the middle-aged couple was a sturdy black-faced man, and after listening to Li Sanbai's questioning at this time, he let go of his wife and daughter, looked at Li Sanbai and Qin Xuewei, and arched his hand: "Aren't the two of us from Shishou Town?"

Li Sanbai nodded and said, "No." ”

The man nodded and said, "Then it's no wonder! The two of you don't know that the group of people is looking for a bride for the water god of Dongting Lake." ”

"Looking for a bride?" Li Sanbai said puzzledly: "Big brother, can you tell me the details?"

When the man heard this, he sighed and said to the mother and daughter who were still hugging each other: "Wife, Su Ying, you go back to the room first!"

"Hmm!"

The mother and daughter answered, and then walked into the house together, and the man said: "The two of you don't know, our Shishou Town is adjacent to Dongting Lake, and the fish in the lake are fat, and they are very rich. Who knew that ten years ago, it began to have bad luck!"

Li Sanbai said: "Did something happen ten years ago?"

The man nodded and said, "Ten years ago, on the fifteenth day of the winter month, at night, a child's scream suddenly came from the street, which woke up the residents of the town. When everyone went out, they saw a pool of blood on the ground. The next day, I heard that Chen Yuanwai's nine-year-old youngest son had disappeared!"

When Li Sanbai and Qin Xuewei heard this, they were both shocked, and the man continued: "At that time, everyone was talking about it, and they were all shouting to find out the murderer. But no one expected that this night was just the beginning of the nightmare of Shishou Town for nearly ten years. ”

As he spoke, with a look of fear on his face, he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, and then continued: "From that night on, every night, a boy must be killed. No matter how much the townspeople take care of it, it won't help. At the end of the month, everyone was panicked and asked the town keeper to find a way to solve the disaster. ”

After listening to the people's confession with a gloomy face, the town guard said that he had met the water god of Dongting Lake last night, and told him that this kind of thing happened in the town because the residents did not respect the water god, which caused the water god to be angry as a punishment. ”

The townspeople panicked and asked the town keeper what to do, and the town guard said that the water god had planned to eat all the children in the town. But because of his kindness, he is open-minded, and if the town can offer a young woman to him as a bride on the first day of the lunar month every year, he will only eat ten children a year and punish him!"

When Qin Xuewei heard this, she frowned and said angrily: "This is obviously a monster!

The man smiled bitterly and said, "Who wants to agree?" When the men in the town heard this, they formed a death squad and went into Dongting Lake to exterminate the water god, but they never returned! And every night a child still died, until New Year's Eve, everyone finally couldn't bear it anymore, agreed to the advice of the town guard, and chose a woman to throw into Dongting Lake. By the second day, calm had returned to the town. ”

When Li Sanbai heard this, he was shocked and shocked, his face was full of disbelief, the man sighed, and said: "Since then, the people in our Shishou Town have been afraid of having children. If you give birth to a boy, you will be eaten by the god of water at night, and if you give birth to a girl, you may be chosen to be the bride of the god of water!

Qin Xuewei heard this and sneered: "Like you, isn't it the pig and dog that the monster kept in captivity?"

"You ......", the man was immediately furious, and wanted to have a seizure, but he held back sullenly, and said: "The girl doesn't have a backache when she stands and talks!

With that, he turned around and entered the house, and with a "no" sound, the door was closed tightly!

When Li Sanbai saw it, he smiled bitterly at Qin Xuewei and said, "Senior Sister Qin, you talk to save some face for others!"

Qin Xuewei said unconvinced: "I'm not wrong! It's really a nest to make a living like them!"

Seeing that Li Sanbai sighed again, she stomped her foot, and said reluctantly: "Okay! Okay! Senior Brother Li, I know you want to say that I don't know about Li Min's suffering! I'm wrong, right?"

Li Sanbai smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter if it's wrong, as long as you can understand their pain!"

After that, he said in a low voice: "I really don't know what it feels like to see my own children die!"

When Qin Xuewei heard this, she was also gloomy, and said to Li Sanbai: "Senior Brother Li, since this matter has been encountered by us, let's take a good look and see if we can help the people in the town solve this misfortune!"

Li Sanbai said with a smile: "We came to Shishou Town to help you find the Xia Sword, can we grow branches like this?"

Qin Xuewei grinned and said, "If I hold the sword in the rivers and lakes, I will do chivalrous and righteous deeds! If I don't even care about the tragedy under my nose, what face do I have to get the Qixia Sword?"

Li Sanbai listened, smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you to explore the true face of this Dongting Lake water god!"

After that, he said: "But I have abolished the Taiyin Shengshui Sutra, and my strength has dropped a lot, if the water god is powerful at that time, it will depend on you, Senior Sister Qin!"

Qin Xuewei had already heard about his transfer to cultivating the Cave Xuan Sutra on the way here, and said with a smile at this time: "Don't worry! Senior sister, I will protect you!"
