The Huaishui Basin, the land of Sizhou, is rainy and rainy, and I don't feel the moon. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The sky was overcast and drizzling, and the roads were waterlogged and muddy.

Ao Ming dressed as a Taoist priest and walked on the road of the village with a broken paper umbrella, if he wanted to solve Wu Zhiqi reasonably, he still had to start from the perspective of mortals. Anyway, he is making waves in Huaishui, and he has done a lot of evil things, and it is not difficult to find an opportunity to lead the national teacher Wang Bodhisattva.

Suddenly, I looked up, and saw that the villagers were no longer staying at home, but braving the rain to build a platform at the head of the village to pray.

Ao Ming walked over and half-squatted down, pulled a villager kneeling in the muddy water from behind, and asked, "You are not hiding from the rain at home, dare to ask what you are doing?"

When the man turned around and saw that it was a young Taoist priest, he let go of his vigilance in his heart, tilted his head sideways and sighed quietly: "Alas, we are worshipping the water god of Huaishui, praying that he can stop the rain as soon as possible, so that we can also work in the fields!"

It turned out that this was the spring season, which was the time of the year to sow seeds, but the continuous rain on both sides of the Huaishui River made it impossible for the villagers to go out, even if they sowed seeds in the rain. Such weather will only cause the seeds to rot in the soil and nothing will be found.

And the most fertile land here is on both sides of the river, but the flooding of the Huai River has long since submerged these fields. So these people also begged every day, hoping that the water god could give them a way to live, but this Wu Zhiqi also agreed.

It's just that they are asked to sacrifice pigs, cows, and sheep in every village along the coast, and the pigs and sheep can still be obtained by all means, but this cow is used by them to plow the fields, and there are only three or five cows in a village, where can they give it?

This Wu Zhiqi wanted cattle but couldn't, but he was also angry in his heart, although he didn't dare to flood the village directly, but this continuous rain never stopped. Seeing that the busy farming season is coming to an end, if you don't plant any more food, you won't have anything to eat next year. Moreover, the muddy waves of Huaishui, the mud and sand, the waves are surging, and even the most idle fishermen cannot catch fish from the river.

Wu Zhiqi pressed forward step by step, and the villagers had no way to live, so they finally compromised.

I saw a four-legged buffalo tied to the high altar, and a trace of rain slipped from the black horns, and the round eyes of the cow were full of puzzled looks, and the mouth couldn't stop making a "chirping" sound.

But how could the villagers have ever been good in their hearts, two hundred people in a village, and dozens of fields are all relying on these heroes who have no complaints. But the river god wants to eat them, but what about when there are no cows to sacrifice to the river god in two years?

As the humblest of the people have no choice, compromise will be the result of their persistence until the end, and perhaps when there is no ox, they can only give it to the river god to eat.

After the villagers finished worshipping, they used carts to carry the buffalo to the edge of the Huai River and pushed it down the rolling waves. The four-legged buffalo didn't even have a chance to struggle, so it could only look at it in despair for the last time, and was swallowed by the turbid whirlpool.

In the mansion of the water god in the river, Wu Zhiqi returned to his original form, and was originally a white ape less than three feet. At this time, he was half-lying on the wide dragon chair, watching the little demons keep collecting sacrifices from the river, and suddenly smiled.

At this time, a fish-headed monster below smiled and said, "Just these mortals still want to go against our Ahuizotl Great Sage, they are really looking for death, and now they still obediently send tribute?"

Wu Zhiqi said with a smile: "You can't violate the rules of heaven, it's very boring." The little ones quickly wash and peel these fat cows, and on weekdays, they just watch those mortals make their treasures tight, and I don't know if the human flesh is delicious, or the beef is delicious?" If the villagers knew the reason why Wu Zhiqi wanted to eat the cow, I don't know if they would vomit three liters of blood and die.

Another monster laughed: "Whether it's human flesh or beef, it's definitely better than this fish that has been tired for a long time." If we hadn't followed the Great Sage, how would we have such a good life and be able to eat these things?

Then they shouted in unison: "Yes, yes! Thank you, Great Sage, Great Sage!"

Not to mention how these monsters ate the bloody beef in the River God's Mansion, the flesh and blood on their faces were blurred.

Ao Ming returned home with the sad and sad villagers, and it turned out that the cow that had been sacrificed before also had a share in their family. There are nearly 40 families in this village, most of them are 10 families who share a ploughing ox, and their brothers and sisters have a total of 1 farming ox.

Therefore, in the village, people have long been jealous and hateful, and this time the river god wants to eat cattle and sacrifice, and their family will naturally bear the brunt of the seedlings.

Ao Ming felt both pitiful and pathetic when he heard it, originally everyone belonged to the lowest and most bullied sad roles, but when the catastrophe came, it would be divided into three, six, nine and so on. He believed that if Wu Zhiqi really wanted to eat people, the first person to be eaten must be the most pitiful and helpless.

Is the sorrow of a family a family a bully by Wu Zhiqi, or is it the mortals themselves who are falling against each other? Ao Ming can't say well, it seems that there are all of them, after all, there is one thing, that is, if you want to protect yourself, you need to be stronger, this is an eternal truth.

The family's surname is Liu, he ranks third among the six brothers, and his parents have no education, so they happen to be called Liu San.

Ao Ming asked Liu Sandao: "You have been bullied by the Huaishui River God for many years, haven't you thought of any way to deal with him?"

Liu San smiled bitterly and said: "Why haven't you thought of a way? We don't know how much it costs to hire a Taoist priest to clean up the monsters in the river, either they took the money and ran away, or they really went into the water and were eaten." After a long time, no one dared to call him a monster, and he was worshiped as a river god, and it was okay on weekdays, but when it came to the New Year's festival and the busy farming, he came to ask for sacrifices. In the past few years, there were still few things I wanted, but in recent years, it has become more and more noisy, and it is estimated that I will eat people if I go down!"

In fact, Wu Zhiqi has not eaten many people, but there are no honest people to eat, thinking about those who fell into the water and sailed to the depths of Huaishui, which one did not fall into the belly of him and his little demons?

"Then do you know what this monster in the river looks like and what it can do?" Ao Ming asked again.

Liu San sighed and said: "How do we know what this monster looks like, I only remember that the old man in the village said that once at the foot of Huaiyin Turtle Mountain, someone once saw a monster breaking ashore. He is five feet tall, squatting there like an ape, with a green body and a white head, golden eyes and snow teeth. Maybe this is the monster in Huaishui now, I heard that he is infinitely powerful, and it is not surprising that ordinary Taoist priests are not his opponents. ”

Ao Ming was thinking of a way to let the Liu brothers start to subdue demons, but Liu San's wife walked in, glanced at Ao Ming and said: "This Taoist chief, there is a woman outside the door, claiming to be your cousin, you better go out and have a look by yourself!" This Mrs. Liu is also a little embarrassed, where can a monk have any cousin, who looks young and handsome, most likely hooked up with the daughter of a certain family.

But the most depressed person is Ao Ming, cousin? Where did he come from, there are no more than five women who have spoken to him so far, and there has never been any cousin!

The most important thing is that Mrs. Liu said that this woman came to Liu San's door lightly and skillfully, and he didn't even notice it, which is the most terrifying place. Ao Ming confessed his sins, and then got up and went out.

I saw the Phantom Sound Heavenly Maiden standing there at the door, dressed in a pink gauze dress, with pink peach cheeks, and a little provocative prodigal in her delicate and slender manner. Seeing Ao Ming come out, she smiled coquettishly: "What's the matter? I didn't expect it to be me, right?"

"Indeed!" Ao Ming nodded: "Aren't you captured? Why were you released so quickly?"

The Phantom Heavenly Maiden turned her eyes, and when she saw Liu San and his wife walking out of the back room, she immediately rushed to Ao Ming, grabbed his sleeve and frowned and exclaimed: "Cousin, why did you leave someone alone and leave, you don't know the idea of many colorful ghosts beating people along the way!"

The pervert hit your idea, then I'm really worried about the pervert, but I can't say this in front of Liu San and his wife.

On the contrary, Liu San came over with the attitude of a brother who regarded himself as a brother, and said bitterly: "Man, it's normal to mess with flowers, but you have to be responsible! You see that a weak woman is chasing after you regardless of the danger, you can't live up to the sincerity of others! Besides, look at this look--ouch!"

I don't know when Mrs. Liu's pincers have climbed to Liu San's arm, and she can only squeeze her eyebrows and gesture towards Ao Ming, only Mrs. Liu snorted angrily: "Man, there is really no good thing!"

Only Ao Ming noticed the hint of triumphant smile on the corner of the Phantom Sound Heavenly Maiden's mouth, and could only secretly say to herself: "What are you laughing at, give me a bad reputation, see how you complete the task of the National Teacher Wang Bodhisattva?"

The Phantom Sound Heavenly Maiden also looked up at Ao Ming and said, "That old monk asked me to help you, but he doesn't know that I am born to be bad?"

Ao Ming couldn't do anything about her, so she could only pun on her: "If you want to follow, just follow, don't make trouble for me again!"

Liu San couldn't hear the meaning, but laughed and said: "That's right! A man must be responsible!"

Mrs. Liu said angrily: "You are really heartless, you can still laugh when the cow is gone!" She looked at this husband and was helpless, but it was not a family that did not enter the door, although she complained in her mouth, it was exactly what she liked in her heart.

Liu San stood up his manly majesty, and said angrily: "You are a woman and a Taoist family, why don't you hurry up and get some wine and food, take this opportunity to have a few drinks with the Taoist brothers." I guess the rain should stop in two days, and it's time to work in the fields!"

Without cattle, the labor in the field must be doubled, and Mrs. Liu felt sorry in her heart, but there was nothing she could do but go to the kitchen to cook as instructed.

Ao Ming always likes to come into contact with these ordinary people, and can always see a lot of moving emotions in some small things, just like this couple's affection. As a wife, she is distressed and embarrassed, because she is afraid that her husband will work too hard, but Liu San, as a husband, is still hippie and smiling. But wasn't he sad in his heart? Apparently not, the buffalo, who had been with him for many years, was probably closer than his brothers.

The Phantom Sound Heavenly Maiden may also feel the ordinary and deep affection between this couple, but she is also much more honest, and following Ao Ming is really like a well-informed lady.

Ao Ming sat down again and asked Liu San, "Do you really want this monster in Huaishui to continue to make trouble?" Maybe it's really as you said, you will eat people in three or five years, so what should you do?"

Liu San shook his head and said: "Where do I know what to do, it's just that all the people on both sides of the Huaishui River have not been forced to a desperate situation, so he will not go bankrupt to fight to the death with the monsters." Every time they want the family to scrape together ten taels of silver to invite someone to subdue the demon, they are unwilling and reluctant, maybe it is really time to eat people, they can really exert their strength to get rid of the demon!"

This is exactly the truth, although Wu Zhiqi is doing evil in Huaishui, but under the control of the Jade Emperor, he still has a sense of proportion. It's just that this proportion has been broken little by little, like boiling a frog in warm water, so that the people can slowly accept it.

Since it is acceptable, although everyone wants to subdue the demon, they are reluctant to spend too much money to subdue the demon. Just as there are many people who die from poisoning, there are very few people who break their wrists, because they would rather die completely in a little acceptance than spend the price to cure it.

After learning about the current situation of Huaishui from Liu San's mouth, Ao Ming also found a little direction in his heart, and the price of letting the national teacher Wang Bodhisattva come to get rid of the demon is actually not small. Because what Ao Ming promised him was fifty temples, and how many silver taels should fifty temples cost, and let them take it out willingly!

It's still the old way, and only let the people who know the local situation best think of this way, just like when the Dragon Temple was established in Pengli Lake. Ao Ming said: "I won't tell you, I know a master who can get rid of the monsters in the river, but he needs the people to build a temple to worship!"

When Liu San heard this, his eyes widened: "It's really fake, this monster in the river is very powerful, and many Taoist priests can't do anything about him, are you serious?"

"Of course what I said is true, the monster in the river is named Wu Zhiqi, and it is the ape-like monster you heard about in the rumors. This monster has vast magical powers, and it is comparable to Jiuniu, but there are more strong players in the strong, and it is precisely restrained by a master I know. Ao Ming said and pointed to the rain outside the window and said: "Actually, even if I cast a spell, I can stop this rain, but the monsters are not eliminated, and the symptoms are not cured!"

Before the words fell, Ao Ming naturally showed his hand again, and his mind moved, and controlling Yunyu was still a trivial matter. Liu Sanyi looked up, only to see the warm sunlight shining on the window lattice of his house, and muttered: "I'm not dreaming!"

Ao Ming said: "Of course it's not a dream, I can't let that monster notice it now, and I can't control it for too long!"

It was raining outside the window, but Liu San was deeply moved, the Taoist priests he had seen before had to go up to the altar to cast spells, and the person in front of him could stop the wind and rain while talking and laughing, this is the person who is really capable. Besides, he also said that he knew someone who was more powerful than him, and it seemed that this time there was really a way to bring down the monster.

Liu San hurriedly asked, "I don't know what you want us to do before you are willing to take action to subdue the demon?"

Ao Ming said: "That person has to build fifty temples under Huaishui before he is willing to make a move, so what do you think should be done about this?"

Liu San asked, "Then do you want any offerings?" He was also afraid that after the temple was built, he would keep asking for three animal offerings and the like, which would be even more painful.

Ao Ming shook his head and said: "After the temple is built, there will be monks living in it in the future, and they will eat fasting and chant Buddha, and they will have some spells." In the future, if you want to subdue demons and eliminate monsters, pray for blessings and ask questions, etc., you can also bring some incense paper and candles to worship. ”

Liu San said with a smile: "That feeling is good, because the Taoist priest is either traveling in the square or in the deep mountain Taoist temple, and it is really difficult to find something to do." If this monk lives in the temple, then we can have a place to go when we encounter problems!" He was not stupid, and he saw the benefits at once.

"So, it's just that you think it's not enough, now you have to think of a way to make the people on both sides of the Huaishui agree!" )
