Zhang Yutang and Xu Jiaorong, one man and one woman, walked slowly along the road leading to the West Lake. Zhang Yutang was silent along the way, and Xu Jiaorong kept laughing.
Every time the ringing laughter fell into Zhang Yutang's ears, his heart would twitch violently.
He regretted a little what he said last night.
Xu Jiaorong has been secretly observing Zhang Yutang's expression, secretly rejoicing:
"Sure enough, after many years of getting along, he has feelings for me. It's just that he fell in love with me but didn't know his own feelings. He's really a fool."
"You don't know your own feelings, so you don't have to say those hurtful words. It made me think you didn't like them."
"Hmph, I have to give you a good grooming this time. I shed so many tears and I have to give you a good look."
The two of them walked along with their own thoughts, and soon arrived at the edge of the West Lake. The lake was rippling with long blue waves. Looking up, the water and sky were the same color, vast and vast.
"Evil spirit?"
Arriving at the edge of the West Lake, Zhang Yutang's soul came out, and a trace of evil spirit filled the lake.
"It's such a familiar scent. This should be the scent of the old monster in the water palace. Could it be that he has escaped the suppression of the water palace and broken the Nine Heavens Divine Cord?"
"I remember that he said at that time that he would wait until I had succeeded in my practice to save him. He probably wouldn't have the strength to break the iron rope. What is going on? Do I want to go down and have a look?"
Walking around the lake, I struggled and wandered several times in my heart:
"Forget it, let's go and have a look, otherwise my conscience will be uneasy."
Looking at Zhang Yutang walking around the lake, Xu Jiaorong couldn't help but said with concern:
"Sir, what happened to you? Can you tell me about it?"
"Um."
Zhang Yutang nodded, repeated what he heard from Abao to Xu Jiaorong, and then said:
"I followed what he said and came to the shore of the West Lake. What I felt was not the scent of incense from the gods, but a strong evil spirit. This evil spirit is still the same evil spirit that we are very familiar with."
Xu Jiaorong trembled when she heard this:
"Sir, are you saying that what happened with the boys and girls this time is not that the gods chose boys or girls to serve them, but that the monsters are causing trouble?"
"Um."
Zhang Yutang looked at the boundless lake:
"And this monster is familiar to both you and me. I'm afraid you wouldn't have thought that this monster is the monster we met under the water of the West Lake five years ago."
"The goblin under the water of West Lake five years ago?"
In front of Xu Jiaorong's eyes, five years ago, a two-story water palace stood in the water, exuding a sinister aura. The aura was cold and biting, making people tremble from the depths of their souls.
"Is that the green dragon, the green dragon from Zhenjiao Palace?"
"That's right."
Zhang Yutang said:
"If I guess correctly, it is this green dragon that is causing trouble this time. I am afraid that this monster's mana is almost exhausted, and he needs to use the blood and essence of boys and girls to replenish his energy."
Thinking of the boundless power of the green dragon, Xu Jiaorong felt chilled from the bottom of her heart:
"Sir, what should we do? Has the demon escaped from the underwater palace?"
As he spoke, he looked around. Under the blue sky and white sun, he still felt that the surroundings were gloomy and he just wanted to escape from this place.
"Escape is not that easy."
Zhang Yutang said:
"The water palace is covered with divine patterns. It would be extremely difficult to escape. However, it is possible that a ray of the evil spirit escaped from the sky and came here to cause trouble."
"Since it needs the essence and blood of boys and girls to restore its strength, it will inevitably separate a ray of soul at that time and sweep these boys and girls into the water. Let us take advantage of the opportunity and act according to the situation. If we can save these children, we will try our best to save them.
Come down."
"If we don't have the strength, don't be afraid. I can use the magic of inviting gods to invite Qiantang Water God to suppress Qingjiao."
I suddenly remembered that the goddess was stepping on a green dragon, right?
Could it be that the green dragon at the bottom of the West Lake is the green dragon that the water god of Qiantang is holding down!
Xu Jiaorong nodded and said:
"Sir, if you can really subjugate demons, you should subdue this demon and don't let it harm so many children."
"Don't worry, I will do my best."
Zhang Yutang turned around and left the West Lake waterfront, and took Xu Jiaorong to the vicinity of Qiaojia Village. Everyone in Qiaojia Village had a sad look on their faces, without a trace of a smile.
There were even bursts of crying from two families. After a little inquiry, it was found that a child named Qiao Youqiang from one family was selected, and a child named Qiao Ruyi from the other family was selected.
Before the sun sets today, the children will be given to the West Lake Water God to serve them. From now on, the gods and humans will be separated forever, which is heartbreaking.
This time, God and man are separated, and I'm afraid it will be an eternity.
The two found a secluded place. Zhang Yutang took out a Taoist talisman from his arms and handed it over:
"These are the talismans I have drawn over the years. They contain extremely powerful powers. These talismans include the sun talisman, the righteousness talisman, the evil-proofing talisman, the thunder and fire talisman, the five thunder talisman, the divine fire talisman, the flying talisman, the invisibility talisman, etc., as long as you activate them
**The true energy in the Yangyin Chapter of the True Sutra can be used to unleash the power of these talismans by destroying them."
"If you hold these talismans, if something happens, you will be able to escape from the dangerous place, and I will be able to slay demons with peace of mind."
Xu Jiaorong did not reach out to pick it up, but said:
"I've given these Taoist talismans to me. What should you do? If you use them, you won't be able to defend yourself without the Taoist talismans."
Zhang Yutang smiled and said:
"Don't worry, my method of drawing talismans has reached the peak of two strokes of ghosts and gods. It's just that I haven't been able to reach the realm of three strokes of ghosts and gods. The peak of two strokes of ghosts and gods. I use my own energy to create every talisman.
, you can even gather Dao soldiers to help kill the enemy, you don’t need to worry about me, just take care of yourself."
"Well, that's good."
Feeling Zhang Yutang's concern, Xu Jiaorong felt sweet in her heart:
"In that moment, you have to be careful."
Zhang Yutang nodded, no longer uttered a word, but sat cross-legged on the ground, silently circulating the Great Invisible Destruction Sword Qi, adjusting his energy and spirit to the best state to cope with the upcoming fierce battle.
Qingjiao is a demon from the fairyland. With the word "fairy", it means that it transcends the mortal world. It can turn clouds and rain with just a wave of its hand, which is simply not what Zhang Yutang can compare with.
Even if a ray of soul is born, Zhang Yutang is helpless and cannot deal with it at all.
If you want to slay demons, you have to summon heavenly soldiers and generals to come down to earth.
…
Qiao Feng, Qiao Wangsan, and Fa Hai rode in a carriage and soon arrived at Qiaojia Village.
Qiao Wangsan jumped out of the carriage, smiled and handed the driver some broken silver. After the driver took the silver, he turned around the dock and returned to the way he came.
"Master, please, Uncle Qiao, the most virtuous and respected man in our village, is waiting for you inside."
Fahai smiled and said:
"Let's go in together."
The three of them walked forward and entered Qiaojia Village. They saw many people worshiping the Qiantang Water God. The statue of the Qiantang Water God was glowing with red light in a place invisible to mortals. The incense filled the sky, and wisps of sincere faith seeped into it.
Qiao Wangsan took two quick steps and found Uncle Qiao. When Uncle Qiao saw Qiao Wangsan, he hurriedly asked:
"Little Sanzi, have you invited Master Fahai?"
Qiao Wangsan said with joy on his face:
"Uncle, we have invited Master Fahai. He is waiting outside. He asked me to come look for you, uncle."
"You are such an ignorant child. How can you keep the master waiting? Please invite me in quickly and serve you well."
Uncle Qiao stared and his beard trembled:
"Forget it, you can't do things well if you don't talk about it, so I'll go do it myself."
"Master, you are here. Come and sit in the room quickly."
When Uncle Qiao saw Fa Hai, he greeted him warmly:
"It's already noon. You haven't eaten yet. Let's sit down and eat and chat."
"Amitabha."
Fahai performed a namaste with a loud voice:
"Old benefactor, I'm not going to eat anymore. I'll go to the edge of the West Lake first to take a look at the West Lake Water God and see if I can ask for a favor and save you from this disaster."
"Let's talk about this big deal after dinner."
Although Uncle Qiao was anxious in his heart, he smiled and said:
"Everyone has arrived, so there is no rush."
"No."
Fahai refused again and said:
"You don't need to go. I'm going alone. If the West Lake Water God doesn't agree and gets angry, I'm afraid it will hurt the people who are going."
Seeing that Fahai was thoughtful and determined to go, Uncle Qiao stopped being pretentious:
"Well, if our people go, they will only cause trouble to the master, so we won't go. We will wait for good news at home."
Fahai smiled slightly, turned around and left, his steps flying as fast as he walked.
"Fahai is here!"
Zhang Yutang, who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the sky. He saw a line of blood energy that was like a pillar of heaven, pure and thick, running straight through the sky, trying to burst the sky forever.
"The blood is so powerful, it's like hanging high for a day. If an ordinary demon touches it, it will be burned to death by this strong masculine energy."
Masculine blood is a great tonic for demons, but once it is too much, it becomes poison.
A person like Fa Hai, who is full of blood and masculine, must be refined immediately once swallowed by a demon. Otherwise, even a thousand-year-old demon will be blown to pieces once it explodes.
"I don't know how many Taoist practices Fahai has now. I'll go and have a look."
He stood up and looked towards the edge of the West Lake:
"Wait for me here. If anything happens, leave immediately."
"Sir, I have also practiced the Yangyin Chapter of the **Zhen Sutra for many years, and I have some strength."
Xu Jiaorong said:
"Besides, I have Young Master's Taoist Talisman in my hand, so I can also help Young Master a lot."
"|**The Yin-nourishing Chapter of the True Sutra can only improve Taoism, but it does not have special skills or magical powers to protect the body. It cannot show its strength at all."
Zhang Yutang refused:
"As for the Taoist talismans I gave you, they are more than enough for self-protection but not enough for attack. You'd better not go."
"Um."
Xu Jiaorong nodded and responded:
"In that case, I will wait here for your return."
"good!"
A green boat appeared under my feet, surrounded by green clouds. The whole person was like a stream of light. In an instant, I came to the side and looked side by side at the bottom of the West Lake with Fahai.
"It turns out to be you!"
Fahai obviously recognized Zhang Yutang and said with a smile:
"The donor has a clear spiritual wisdom and is destined to be a Buddha." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend it as a registered member of Piaotian Literature. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
