I have a seal of two worlds

Chapter 179 Sacrifice to the River God

"Hey! Why are you still following me?" Lu Zheng asked in surprise.

At this time, there were three big bumps on the right side of Guangyue's head, which hadn't subsided yet. On his left eye was a dark circle with purple in the black, the right cheek was also a little swollen, and a small cut was made at the corner of his mouth.

Looks... like he just got beaten up?
"Amitabha!" Guangyue said excitedly, "I didn't expect fellow Taoists to not only cultivate both Taoism and martial arts, but also have extraordinary attainments. With such a talent, how can you delay in your children's affair?"

Lu Zheng: (°Δ°`)
Guangyue said, "I know brother won't understand me now, but the poor monk must urge Brother Dao not to waste this talent, Brother Dao, you will know what I want one day."

"Thank you! I won't!" Lu Zheng said helplessly, "Master, in fact, I am very self-disciplined, and I will not kill my fighting spirit because of my children's personal affairs."

"But the fox girl is charming, and it will be a matter of time for Dao brother to miss the hometown and not go out." Guangyue said with a serious face, "Only traveling with the poor monk can Dao brother be brave and diligent, and hone his cultivation."

Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes, and held the handle of the knife with his backhand.

……

Linhe Village, a small village with a very common name, is exactly the same as the name of countless villages facing the river in Dajingchao, except that the river that Linhe Village leans on is called Lanshui River, and there are three other villages close to it. .

These four villages are not connected to the land outside, and are blocked by mountains. The only way out is to go down the Lanshui River, enter the main road of the river, and connect to the outside world.

It's just that the Lanshui River is narrow and fast, with turbulent undercurrents and dangerous shoals everywhere.

If that's the case, it's fine, relying on the water proficiency passed down from generation to generation in the village and the hydrology of the Lanshui River passed down, they can also go out smoothly.

But this is the fairy world!There are monsters!

So... since the addition of a "river god" to the Lanshui River decades ago, the four villages have sacrificed a pair of boys and girls every year, so that the river god can keep the Lanshui River calm and calm.

This year, it was the year of offering sacrifices in Linhe Village again. Two pairs of parents were unlucky in drawing lots and contributed their own children. They cried and watched their children being dressed up, surrounded and carried by the villagers of the four villages. To the Lanshui River.

Beating gongs and drums, the noisy team came out from the entrance of the village and walked to the river bank not far away. At the same time, a faint black shadow loomed in the Lanshui River.

at this time……

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" came the sound, and two figures came out from the depths of the mountain, a golden light and a blue shadow, separating and rejoining.

Seeing the crowd here, the blue shadow let out a "huh", stopped immediately, and then rushed over with flying steps.

The villagers stared at it, only to realize that this blue shadow was a young man in a blue Confucian robe, with a face like a crown jade, eyes like stars, handsome and handsome, with a handsome appearance.

And that golden light also came over, but it was a monk who looked quite strong, but at this time his head was covered with big bags, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and he looked very miserable.

"I've seen two... Immortal Masters!"

The villagers saluted one after another, those who had seen the world just bowed, and those who were timid just knelt down.

"Excuse me, excuse me, you are..."

Lu Zheng glanced at the ignorant boys and girls who were surrounded by the villagers on the wooden mat in the middle, holding toys, and then looked at the two families who kept touching their tears behind the team. He already had a guess in his mind. .

"Master Huixian, we are offering sacrifices to the God of the River, to bless the Lanshui River with good weather next year..." The old man in the lead bowed and said.

"Sacrificing to the River God..." Lu Zheng smacked his lips, "How do you sacrifice? Besides burning incense, what is the sacrifice? Is it steamed buns, fruits and vegetables, or livestock?"

"This……"

According to the law of Da Jing, it is strictly forbidden to use living people in sacrifices. What the ghosts and gods of the Jing Dynasty want is incense, not human blood.

"Amitabha!" Guangyue's eyes flickered, "Eating people? Pretending to be a river god? Is this an evil god worshiping?"

To be honest, it’s fine if it’s just cannibalism, as long as you hide a little bit, don’t take the initiative to take the initiative, don’t take the initiative to attack, Da Jingchao may not be able to take care of it, such as Wild Wolf Mountain.

But if you dare to use the idea of ​​incense, it is a matter of principle. As long as Da Jingchao finds out, you will definitely destroy it with your backhand and kill others to make an example.

"It's not a monster, it's a water ghost." Guangyue said decisively, "Put to death!"

"Surely punish!" Lu Zheng nodded.

"Immortal master wait a moment! Immortal master wait a moment!" The leader of the old man hurriedly persuaded, "The river god can't be provoked! There was also an immortal master who came here decades ago, but he not only lost his life, but also made Lanshuihe a year. The waves are rough, and we haven't been out for a year!"

"Yes, yes!" A few elderly people also looked terrified.

"So you just watched them wash their face with tears?" Lu Zheng pointed to the two families behind the team.

"Isn't that better than a few villages where everyone died?" The old man at the head had a look of grief and indignation.

Lu Zheng nodded, "What you said really makes sense."

Hearing Lu Zheng's words, many villagers breathed a sigh of relief, but the expectations on the faces of those who fell behind in the line turned to despair in an instant.

Of course Guangyue didn't believe that Lu Zheng just let it go, so he looked at Lu Zheng curiously, only to hear Lu Zheng continue, "But no matter how reasonable your words are, can you stop me?"

The old man at the head:? ? ?

"Amitabha!" Guangyue looked relieved, "Brother Dao really should travel with the poor monk."

"I'm traveling with you, a ghost!" Lu Zheng scolded angrily, then turned to the Lanshui River, and saw a black shadow going upstream in the water, and at the same time his body sank, hiding his own shadow on the water.

"Go!"

Lu Zheng's blood was surging, and he reached the top of the Lanshui River in an instant, and then his body was like an arrow, shooting straight to the bottom of the water.

"Brother Dao wants to enter the water?" Guang Yue was taken aback, and then saw Lu Zheng twirled a seal in his hand, and then the river water automatically drained to both sides three feet in front of him.

"A trick to avoid water?!"

"You stay on top, and I'll scout the way below, so that he won't be found in the hidden caves at the bottom of the water." Lu Zheng said as he pushed the water in, sticking to the bottom of the Lanshui River, all the way upstream.

"Okay!" Guangyue was not pretentious, holding a wooden stick, galloping along the riverside with Lu Zheng, holding the seal of Buddha in his hand, ready to strike a fatal blow at any time.

……

The two went up three miles, and saw that the terrain ahead was dangerous and the current was fast. At this time, there were still countless waves rising out of thin air, and then a majestic voice sounded beside the ears of the two, "You drive your way, I will follow you No injustice, no enmity, we don't offend the water in the well, why come to seek bad luck from me?"

"There's no reason." Lu Zheng walked leisurely at the bottom of the river, without slowing down at all, "It's just that I haven't eaten river fresh food for a long time, and I miss it a little."
