Urban Night Returner

Chapter 142 Underworld Circulation System

Zhong Lecen was awakened by the smell of rice, and he didn't feel anything when he fell asleep, but now when he woke up, he felt that his belly was attached to his spine, and there was no pain anywhere in his body.He groaned and groaned and got up and walked to the kitchen. Shen Gu was scrambling eggs with his back facing him. He heard footsteps and said with a smile, "Are you awake? Does your body hurt? I forgot to give you a cold compress before going to bed." .No way, let’s do a hot compress later.”

Zhong Lecen lay on his back, yawning: "When can I eat?"

"I'll be ready soon." Shen Gu was cooking vegetables in his hands, and in his busy schedule, he turned around and kissed him, "Get a bowl of porridge."

Zhong Lecen lazily walked over to serve the porridge, took the chopsticks, sat down on the chair and refused to get up.Shen Gu put the dishes on the table, shook his head and went to the bathroom to wring out a hot towel to wipe his hands.As soon as he bent down, Zhong Lecen saw a bleeding spot from his open shirt collar, and was startled: "Why is it so serious?" The skin where the tentacles slapped was already blue and swollen, and those bleeding spots turned purple. black.Zhong Lecen unbuttoned his shirt and took a look, there was a large piece of his chest and back.

Shen Gu smiled, sat down and picked up the chopsticks: "It's okay, it just looks serious, subcutaneous bruising, and it will be healed after a few days of hot compress. But you, let me take a good look at it later, don't hurt the bones."

Zhong Lecen was dying of hunger, desperately scrambling for food, while nodding perfunctorily.Shen Gu picked up the rice grains from the corner of his mouth for him: "Slow down, be careful of choking. You won't be so hungry, right? If we follow the time here, we'll only be there for a few hours."

Zhong Lecen rolled his eyes, desperately mobilizing his tongue from the food: "Nonsense! Let's, hiccup—we've been on the Copper Mountain for at least a day, hiccup—"

"Look, I told you to eat slowly, are you choking?" Shen Gu stood up and poured him a glass of water, "Why is the time in the shark sea different from ours?"

Zhong Lecen shook his head, took a sip of water to wash away the food that was choking on his chest, and said after taking a breath: "I think the Sea of ​​Mermaids may always be like that, but when we were in Tongshan, time seemed to stop. If we were in Haidao Combining the time on the Internet and the time we spent as guests in the Shark Sea, it matches the time we came back."

"Then why is time standing still on Copper Mountain?"

"How do I know. There are so many strange things, how can I know them all. Fortunately, we don't have to go to Copper Mountain anymore. Hey, I don't want to see that big octopus again in my life."

Shen Gu pondered for a while: "Where did that octopus go?"

"Why," Zhong Lecen looked at him in surprise, "Of course it was suppressed by Zhen Shuizhu."

"Where is the town?" Shen Gu still found it hard to understand, "Where is the town? You said the place where I laid down the water column of the town? The octopus was pressed down by the water column of the town?"

Zhong Lecen shook his head: "No. To be precise, the octopus is confined in that small area of ​​water by the town water column. How should I put it, it's as if we made a cage to lock it up."

Shen Gu thought for a while, but still couldn't understand.But there is no need to understand, since the octopus is trapped anyway: "You guys... also used this method to trap that green dragon?"

"It was even worse than this back then. Because this is the town water, although the octopus is kept in a cage, at least there is still a range of movement, and if there are fish swimming by, they can catch them and eat them. But Lord Qinglong was suppressed. Longjue town is within the eyes of the water, it is like wearing a bondage suit and being locked in a small dark room, unable to move at all. If it is not a god of cultivation, it will starve to death. Back then, the town water column was mainly used to protect the embankment To prevent the water from rushing over, of course, is equivalent to putting all the aquariums in the entire river in cages." Speaking of this, he sighed, "Indeed, thinking about it now, it is too cruel. But if you didn't If the water is contained, the embankment will collapse every year, and many people will die.”

Shen Gu patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, it's all in the past, don't think about it anymore. Eat quickly, and I'll take a look at your injuries after eating."

Although he was very hungry, the Zhong family had the training to keep one's health and not to overeat, so after eating a bowl of rice, although Zhong Lecen was still a little unsatisfied, he also knew that it was the so-called gluttony, so he couldn't stop have eaten.Only then did he smell the fishy smell of the sea on his body, and he couldn't help but wailed, ran into the bedroom and tore off all the sheets and pillow covers that had been soaked in the seawater from the two of them sleeping in the sea, stuffed them into the washing machine, and hurriedly turned on the water for a bath.After Shen Gu finished washing the dishes, he heard the sound of water rushing in the bathroom, his heart felt hot, he took off his clothes, opened the door and went in.

Zhong Lecen was standing under the shower head washing his hair, bending over, pulling his waistline very clearly.Shen Gu stuck it up and hugged him, startled Zhong Lecen, and turned around with his eyes closed: "What are you doing?"

"Wash it together." Shen Gu replied confidently, regretting why he didn't install a bathtub in the bathroom, it would be more convenient to do things that way, wouldn't it?

Zhong Lecen was afraid that the shampoo would flow into his eyes, so he closed them tightly, groping for Shen Gu's hand with both hands: "I'm washing my hair."

"I know." Shen Gu took his hand back and pressed it under his body, "I'll wash it for you, and you wash it for me, is it fair?"

Zhong Lecen scolded him intentionally, holding the hard and hot thing in his hand, suddenly he was speechless.Shen Gu inserted his hands into his hair, while gently massaging, he pulled him closer, leaned forward to kiss him, and said vaguely: "Wash, see how good my service is."

Zhong Lecen was so angry that he closed his eyes and bit him, but his hands moved obediently.These few days have been disturbed by the bodiless porcelain, the two of them really haven't done much, and now they can count as the rest of their lives, so naturally they should have a good relationship.Shen Gu took the water and slowly washed Zhong Lecen's hair, and said with a low smile, "In a few days, you must remember to install a bathtub."

Zhong Lecen's breathing was a bit short of breath, but he quickly retorted: "The bathtub is too wasteful."

Shen Gu couldn't help laughing, took off the shower head, and flushed water on his chest: "Is this not a waste?"

Zhong Lecen felt that the water was a little hot on his chest, especially on sensitive areas, it could be pain or itchiness.Shen Gu also hugged his waist with one hand, not allowing him to move.Zhong Lecen couldn't beat him, and tightened his hands in retaliation, and immediately heard Shen Gu's breathing became rough, and couldn't help but feel a little proud.Shen Gu saw that his eyes were closed and there was a smirk on the corner of his mouth, he just felt a ball of fire rushing from bottom to top, he turned off the shower head and threw it aside, pressed Zhong Lecen against the wall, bowed his head and hugged him In front of the chest, free a hand to reach down, grab him and fondle him.

Zhong Lecen felt that his back was icy cold, but his solid body in front of him was hot.Shen Gu didn't bring lubricant in, just scooped up the body wash and used it.Zhong Lecen felt that his fingers rushed in, and couldn't help moaning.Shen Gu bit his lip, and raised one of his legs to put it on his waist.Zhong Lecen felt that he couldn't stand still, and couldn't care less about taking care of him, so he quickly put his arms around his neck, struggling and complaining: "Slow down."

Shen Gu didn't say a word, his fingers moved in and out, and Zhong Lecen's breathing gradually became faster.Shen Gu pulled out his hand, hugged the body of the person in his arms upwards, and rushed in directly.Zhong Lecen frowned slightly holding back, and muttered softly: "Can't you slow down."

Shen Gu still didn't say a word, until Zhong Lecen moaned softly after tossing for a while, then slowed down and asked maliciously: "Slow down?"

Zhong Lecen leaned close to his shoulder and took a bite instead of answering.Shen Gu took a breath and pulled out abruptly.Zhong Lecen felt that his whole body seemed to be taken away by him. As soon as he yelled, Shen Gu turned over and pressed him on the sink, then rushed in again, and began to aggressively invade...

It was past seven o'clock after the battle, and Zhong Lecen didn't even bother to move his fingers. He was carried to the bed by Shen Gu, and he closed his eyes and instructed: "There are still sheets soaking in the washing machine."

Shen Gu kissed him: "Understood, I'll wash it, Master Overseer."

Zhong Lecen felt that all the strength in his body seemed to be exhausted, but he was not sleepy after a night of sleep, and rolled around on the bed boredly.Suddenly seeing the safety talisman hanging on his chest, he quickly wiped off the water with the pillow towel, and complained to Shen Gu: "It's all because of you, I forgot to take this off when I took a shower."

Shen Gu wiped his hands and came out of the bathroom: "Ancestor, what happened to me? Obviously you forgot to take it off, and blame me? Besides wearing it, is polymer clay still afraid of water?"

Zhong Lecen rubbed it carefully distressedly: "I'm not afraid of soft pottery, but chains are afraid of alkaline things. Your cover is still gold, which will affect the luster. I said, what are you doing with a cover? Waste of money!"

Shen Gu smiled helplessly, went to bed and hugged him: "I put something in the bottle."

Zhong Lecen was startled: "What?"

"The blue mud sent by the sea monster."

"What are you pretending to do?" Zhong Lecen turned his head and immediately asked, "Do you know what this is?"

Shen Gu shook his head: "No. It's just that Hai Changsheng said that she had seen the same thing in the eyes of the sea. Although she didn't know what it was, I think the thing that can be in the eyes of the sea is another sea monster. The gift should not be ordinary. Put some on it, just in case it is useful.”

"Sea eyes..." Zhong Lecen pinched the bottle and pondered, "What could be in the sea eyes? After much deliberation, I still think it's most likely to be Xi Soil. However, we also tested it with water, and there was no change at all..."

Shen Gu was curious: "Why is Xiyang in Haiyan's eyes?"

Zhong Lecen scratched his head: "I guessed it. A place like Haiyan—have you heard of Guixu?"

Shen Gu thought for a moment: "I read the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" two days ago. I remember that there is a bottomless pit, and all the water flows into it, right?"

"Huh?" Zhong Lecen looked at him with a smile, "You still look at that?"

"Isn't it to increase professional knowledge?"

"I'm going!" Zhong Lecen was about to praise him just now, but now he was speechless, "Do you think that increases professional knowledge? Let Dongfang Chen know and scold you to death."

Shen Gu scratched his head: "That flips up quickly. Why, isn't it right?"

"It's not wrong, it's just that he also developed it freely after reading other materials. I told you earlier, you have to read the original work. Go to "Liezi."

Shen Gu cheated: "I don't understand, it's over if you explain it to me."

Zhong Lecen was so angry that he wanted to pat him: "You don't understand? It's strange if you don't understand."

Shen Gu followed him.Zhong Lecen's two slaps on him were almost like scratching an itch: "You know, my little ink was forced out by my grandma who read "Book of Songs" every day, and if I was asked to read those things again, wouldn't it kill me? Speak, Speak, Speak."

"In "Liezi", Guixu is said to be in the east of the Bohai Sea. But there has never been any increase or decrease. It is said that there used to be five sacred mountains in the sea, supported by fifteen giant turtles in turn. However, six of them were fished away by the master of Long Boguo, so Daiyu and Yuanqiao became two sacred mountains. It drifted to the North Pole with the waves and sank in the sea. Of course, this North Pole is definitely not the North Pole in the Arctic Circle, so it probably sank into Guixu."

Shen Gu touched his chin: "You mean, because there is a sea eye, Guixu Society can suck in any kind of water like that?"

Zhong Lecen smiled: "I think so. Didn't it say in "Journey to the West" that the Ruyi Golden Cudgel held by Monkey King was a piece of Dinghaishen needle iron, and it was also said in subsequent myths that Sun Wukong pulled out the piece of Dinghaishen needle iron , so a sea eye appears, which can suck in any treasure or creature that passes by. So I think, Guixu should be a sea eye. But of course, there is more than one sea eye in Guixu. But Guixu probably will It's the biggest one."

Shen Gu draws inferences: "You mean, the sea eye that Hai Changsheng went to, because it was filled with this kind of green mud-let's say it's qi soil-so she wasn't sucked in?"

Zhong Lecen nodded: "I think so."

"Then, should we try it with sea water?"

Zhong Lecen laughed again: "Nonsense! If ordinary sea water is useful, then the soil in the eyes of the sea will grow outwards endlessly, and the sea is not a sea, but a mountain. So I think, the soil should only face the sea. It grows inside the eye. The water in the sea eye should be different from the outside.”

Shen Gu scratched his hair: "I've been talking for a long time, if this is really Xiyang, wouldn't it be that any water will grow? But isn't the Xiyang used by Dayu to control the water? Isn't that water a flood? Neither is it?" Did it come out of the sea eye?"

Zhong Lecen shook his head: "Could it be that Dayu used the soil to fill it everywhere? Before him, his father Gun also used the soil, didn't he fail? It can be seen that the water that can make the soil work must not be ordinary. water."

"Okay." Shen Gu tucked the safety talisman into his collar, "After all, I still don't know what is the use of this thing. Well, let's wear it first, when we encounter such a sea The water in your eyes probably does the trick."

Zhong Lecen was amused by him, and leaned on him and said, "Actually, I think it may be the water from the Yellow Spring that can make the soil grow."

Shen Gu frowned: "Water from the Yellow Spring?"

Zhong Lecen thought about it and said, "Do you remember what we said about Ou Yezi's sword casting?"

"Oh, you said that Ruoye's stream is unfathomable because it leads to the Yellow Spring."

"Well. Think about it, the unfathomable Ruoye River actually dried up later. Why do you think?"

"Because the water was sucked into the Yellow Spring?" Shen Gu immediately connected the two, "The sea eye is also because it connects to the Yellow Spring, so it can suck all the water in? Hey, what do you think the Yellow Spring is? Where? Even if so much water flows into the Yellow Spring, where does the water from the Yellow Spring go?"

"Consumed."

"Consumed?" Shen Gu was puzzled, "What did the consumption do?"

"Do you want to be water on the ground?"

"...Damn!" Shen Gu slapped his thigh, "How dare you believe this is the water circulation system? The water on the ground goes down, and the water from the yellow spring comes up again. What are you bothering about!"

Zhong Lecen said with a smile: "But the water in the Yellow Spring is different from the water on the ground. It is estimated that some of the sudden floods came directly from the Yellow Spring when Dayu controlled the water, so it needs to be filled with soil."

Shen Gu had a sudden thought: "You said that there are ghosts in the water of the Yellow Spring, does that mean that Xi Rang will grow when it meets ghosts?"

Even Zhong Lecen didn't think of this, he was stunned and said: "This, this is really possible..." Shen Gu's words gave him a flash of inspiration, and he thought of many things in an instant, but he couldn't grasp it for a while.

Shen Gu didn't think so deeply, and continued: "That's interesting, so if the water from the underworld is to return to the ground, the ghosts in it must be filtered out, right? Where will this water treatment system be installed? Damn, so It is said that all the water we use is clean, can it be drunk? I said, sometimes what happens after drinking the water, you get sick or get pregnant, is it because the ghosts in the water are not cleaned up?"

Zhong Lecen stared at him dumbfounded: "You, you can really think, I have never thought of this..."

Shen Gu proudly said: "Of course, I don't even look at who your husband is!"

Zhong Lecen rolled his eyes at him: "You are thick-skinned, but you are an extraordinary person."

Shen Gu smiled and tickled him: "What are you talking about?"

Zhong Lecen was afraid of killing him, so he hurriedly begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, can you rule the world with wisdom and martial arts? Don't bother with me because you are magnanimous and big-hearted."

Shen Gu couldn't laugh or cry: "Why is the belly as big as a drum?"

"Is that head as big as a bucket? No, I mean you have a big belly, the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach."

Shen Gu let go of his hand with a smile, and remembered another thing: "However, if the function of the sea eye is to flow the water on the ground into the Yellow Spring, why should it be blocked?"

Zhong Lecen gave him a white look: "Look at what you said. Let's talk about the circulation system in the city, right? The sewage also has to go in through the sewer mouth. You can't just dig a hole in the ground and let the water flow in?"

Shen Gu touched his chin: "So we are sewage..."

Zhong Lecen shrugged: "Don't always look at domestic water. For us, the water of the underworld is the sewage."

Shen Gu pondered for a while, then asked: "But why does the water have to go to the Yellow Spring to circulate?"

Before Zhong Lecen answered, Shen Gu's cell phone rang, and Shen Gu took a look: "It's Heizi." He picked it up casually, "Heizi?"

Xiao Heizi sighed: "Brother Shen, the fourth member of Uncle Wu's family has a heart attack."
