Chapter 242 Evened
Sailing against the current is slower than going down the river, and before you know it, it’s dusk again.
It was a rainy and foggy day when we came here, and the scenery on the Weishui River was gray and light, like ink. Today, it is a sunny day. After the sun sets, the river is covered with a deep blue and almost black sky and a dreamlike skylight. The mountains on both sides are black.
silhouette, reflected in the water together with the skylight.
Lin Jue and the others stopped the boat and let it float on the water. They only lit a night watch lamp and sat cross-legged on the boat, admiring the skylight and water view.
"Senior brother." The little junior sister looked at the spiritual gold and spiritual wood in his bag, "These alone are enough to make twenty or thirty bean soldiers, right?"
"almost."
"That's enough to catch up with Third Senior Brother!"
The junior sister frowned, feeling that things were not simple.
"Third Senior Brother has been practicing Bean Soldier Sacrifice for more than ten years, and his skills are higher than mine. Even if I can do them all, I still can't compare to him." Lin Jue said, "On the other hand, Junior Sister is getting more and more powerful."
"Much worse than senior brother..."
"You learn the Five Elements Magic. If you can find the Five Elements Spiritual Technique again, you will one day be able to surpass me in fighting." Lin Jue said, "But practicing Taoism is not just about fighting. Even if troubled times are coming, don't put all your effort into it."
Put it on top."
"knew!"
The junior sister nodded seriously.
"The scenery here is excellent, the water vapor is abundant, and it is neither cold nor hot. Just meditate and don't think about it."
"good!"
Junior sister has always been obedient.
At this time, there were still no other boats on the water, only two waterbirds playing in the distance, sometimes diving under the water, sometimes emerging from the water, and sometimes running on the water. Under the gradually dimming and dreamy sky, the mirror-like surface of the river was swaying.
Make ripples in circles.
The tented boat, the two people sitting cross-legged on the bow, and the fox lying next to it all became silhouettes in the skylight, decorating the scenery on the river.
One person meditates to gain insights, while the other person quietly observes the scenery.
Both are practices.
For a moment no one on the boat made a sound.
Unconsciously, the skylight became darker and darker, and the two lights on and off the boat became brighter and brighter.
Lin Jue felt a pity in his heart.
Although the harvest was rich, there were also a few regrets.
First, after this battle, the twelve bean soldiers were more or less injured, and some of them were seriously damaged and needed to be repaired after they returned.
Second, during this fight, the Dragon King, General Rhino, and the Chicken Immortal were all poisoned. Although the fight lasted a long time, they did not use much magic. Only when the Dragon King spit out the ghost did Lin Jue feel a little bit.
The palpitations should be due to the addition of a "demon" in the book.
However, this spell is too sinister and vicious, and it cannot be practiced by decent practitioners.
You can also take a look.
A brief look at it can reveal its mysteries and weaknesses, which can increase your knowledge.
If you go deeper, you can understand the principles of its magic. Perhaps you can draw parallels in the future, and you can also use this to understand the avenue it fits. You can see the big from the small, and make up for one more step on the road to enlightenment through magic.
But before the fight, while refining the elixir, Lin Jue took the time to touch the Chicken Immortal's Sun Spirit Fire.
There are no other spells besides this.
There is also the rat demon who ran away.
These three are better.
The most regrettable thing is that in the fight with the Dragon King, I used the flying sword several times, and was thrown away by the Dragon King's tail an unknown distance. Some of them were called back on the spot, and some were found later, but some
The two flying swords went somewhere unknown, and they were not recovered until they left.
Most likely they fell into the river.
I guess the only option is to rebuild it again.
Fortunately, now that we have obtained the golden spirit, these flying swords were meant to be remelted and forged again.
It's just that I have some feelings about an old thing, similar to the fact that it has been with me for so long, helped me conscientiously, and used it smoothly, and then just lost it, I feel reluctant to let it go, but also feel a little sorry for it.
Just then the night watch light suddenly came on.
"Bang!"
There was a violent explosion, and the surface of the river was illuminated.
Lin Jue and Hu Hu suddenly turned their heads and looked in both directions. The junior sister who was meditating also opened her eyes instantly and touched her long sword with her left hand.
However, it was just a big carp that suddenly jumped up from the river and jumped onto the tent boat that the two people and the fox were riding on.
Bang bang bang!
Carp slapping on the boat.
Just like that night.
"Is it that Miss Wei?" The junior sister was very alert. She looked around and saw nothing. Then she stood up and went to pick up the carp. "Did it jump up on its own?"
"I don't know."
"It seems that we haven't reached the river section of Wei Nu yet."
"yes."
"They said they didn't have any food to eat tonight, so here they are!"
The little junior sister was very hungry. No matter how much there was, she just took out her dagger and cut open the carp, but she was surprised to find that there were two beans hidden in the fish's belly.
"Brother!"
The junior sister showed it to Lin Jue. They were the two flying swords that Lin Jue had dropped.
The two of them looked at each other, and then they were really sure that this carp was indeed sent by Lady Wei.
Lin Jue immediately stood up and saluted into the water:
"Thank you very much."
The water surface remained calm, with no lights or ripples visible.
But a female voice came from nowhere:
"How do you say thank you? The three of you got rid of the demon king for all the spirits and spirits in the Wei River, and you also restored the purity of this little girl. Even if you have to thank me, it's my turn to thank you."
"Why don't you show up and see me?"
"..."
After a few breaths, a bright yellow light turned from dark to bright in the water, and gradually left the water.
It is a plain wooden lantern, held by a slender white hand. The owner of the hand is a classical woman wearing a red and green chest-length skirt. She is like a deity in the water, walking out of the water silently, just like the water.
There was an invisible step at the bottom, and she walked out of the water without causing any splash.
"It's a bit rude to speak out but not show up."
The woman stepped on the water with her bare feet. In the evening, she faced the two men on the bow of the boat, saluted her, and then said:
"Thank you three."
"You're welcome." Lin Jue returned her greeting, "You stepped down and spoke for us at King Dragon King's birthday, and we have to thank you."
"That's what three people paid for buying my shoes."
"Speaking of shoes..."
Lin Jue put away the two beans, looked at the woman, and suddenly paused: "The money for the shoes has not been paid yet. Mr. Luo, who was traveling with us, said that there are still five taels of silver left."
"No."
"You are in the Weishui River. Over the past thousands of years, countless ships have sunk in the river. Most of the jewelry on your body is gold and silver. How can you have no money?"
The junior sister looked at this woman carefully and saw that she indeed had a lot of gold and silver jewelry on her body. She thought she might say something like "these jewelry were on her when she died", but she saw her smiling and saying:
"The little girl is not short of money, and she has no intention of defrauding the three of them. It's just that the three of them cheated the little girl once, and the little girl also cheated the three of them once. It's even."
Lin Jue laughed when he heard this.
This woman is quite interesting.
On the boat that day, they gave her some snacks and drinks, and she gave them directions and reminded them, and they went to buy shoes for her. As expected, she spoke for them at the banquet of the Dragon King, and she helped them when they killed the Dragon King.
He returned two
He only thanked them for the drinks and snacks they gave him when he showed them the way, he only thanked them for buying shoes for telling them lies, and he only thanked them for killing the Dragon King by returning two sword pills.
One code means one code.
And this was just as he expected——
When they came here, the Wei girl guessed that they were here to cause trouble for the Dragon King.
"There is a folk legend, have you ever heard of it?"
"What legend?"
"A thousand-year-old fox can become a beautiful woman, a thousand-year-old snake can break and come again, and a hundred-year-old rat can do fortune-telling." The woman said to them, "There is a similar legend about the dragon here."
"You might as well talk about it."
"A horned dragon must either cut off the horns on its head, or ensure that the body cannot touch water for three years, otherwise it may be resurrected." The woman said, "Have the two Taoist priests noticed that?
Is there an inconspicuous little bump on the head of the dragon?"
Lin Jue said:
"No wonder..."
"Um?"
"Please rest assured, the Dragon King's head has been chopped off, his skin has been stripped off, and his body has been burned. As for the horns on his head..."
Lin Jue took out something from the sack next to him. It was about the length of a hand, like a small bamboo shoot, with an earthy gray tip. Compared with the huge body of the Dragon King, it was really inconspicuous:
"There must be a hero who lives here and has heard of such legends. He dug out this corner specially and handed it to me when he left."
Lin Jue was not worried at all.
Not to mention whether such rumors are true or false, even if the Dragon King can be resurrected, it will be many years later. It is not a real demon king. How can I still be afraid of it by then?
"I'm worrying too much."
"Thanks for the reminder."
"The little girl wanted to get on the boat to talk to the two Taoist priests, but at this time someone came on the water." The woman in the water saluted them again, "The little girl reminds me again: Although the Dragon King here is not here,
Shocking backstage, but there are also
Originally, he was practicing here, and he only needed to survive a troubled time, and he would be able to take advantage of the troubled times to gain enlightenment, and he could become an immortal or a real demon king, but he was interrupted by two Taoist priests.
.Two Taoist priests, please be careful what you do."
"Can you give me a more detailed reminder?"
"Don't do bad things during the day, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. As long as the order of the Nine Heavens has not collapsed, there will still be rules. If the Taoist priest can walk and sit upright, even if he is facing the Nine Heavens God, there will be nothing to fear."
"Thank you."
Lin Jue had a clear conscience.
In fact, he was more concerned about this season than the reminder later. Who else would come out of the water so late?
There was just a breeze on the river, and the woman and the lantern in her hand disappeared into the night, leaving only the faint skylight and starry sky, and the boat swaying on the water.
Not long after, there suddenly appeared a little more light in the distance.
After getting closer, the light turned into a blaze of lights. When you get closer, you can see a dragon boat slowly floating from the water.
The bow of the boat was hung with lanterns, reflecting a large flag with the words "Juxian Mansion" written on it. There was also a middle-aged man with a long beard in a Taoist robe standing on the bow of the boat.
sad.
“You can dock here!”
Someone on the boat shouted loudly.
The dragon boat slowly stopped, and only then did someone discover that there was a light and a tent boat on the wide river.
Chapter completed!
