Chapter 99 The crockpot in the river rewarded Liu Xiaochong with a jade pendant
That's some bottles jars.
The bottles and jars were also delicately depicted, but they were so abstract that they couldn't make out what they meant.
At first, the locals were quite happy, thinking about rushing out of the Yellow River, it must be an antique, the gold of the prosperous antiques and troubled times, this is the mercy of the water god, giving everyone benefits!
So the locals carried these jars to the city and showed the antique shops in the city.
The antique shop is usually happy to pick up leaks from the hands of the villagers, but this time when they glanced at the things they brought, their faces turned white, and they waved their hands again and again, saying that they didn't dare to accept this kind of thing.
The locals were very puzzled, saying that you still accept the cracked old porcelain bowls, why don't you want this good big flower jar? They also understand a little, it was broadcast on TV, and the porcelain jars from Guiguzi down the mountain can be sold for 100 million, where is the difference between them?
The people in the antique shop took a breath and refused to say anything about it, only pushed them outside the store, not daring to touch the thing, and when they went out, they desperately wiped the place where the jar had just been glued. Also light tribute incense to smoke.
Only one old Chaofeng, who has seen antiques all his life, whispered to those villagers that this thing must not be touched, and if you want to live, you will throw these jars back into the Yellow River, and then kowtow to make amends, maybe you can escape the catastrophe.
The people in this village said that the people in the city were more feudal than us, and who was willing to throw a big jar into the river?
If you don't accept it, why don't you put it in the kitchen to pickle the eggs?
But the old courtier was right, and it didn't take long for these locals to encounter strange things.
At first, there was a family, in the middle of the night when they heard their dog barking for their life, and thought someone was coming, but when they looked outside, they saw that the dog was barking at the kitchen.
The family was quite puzzled, thinking that something had come in the kitchen, so the man went to the kitchen to look, and it didn't matter if he saw it, he didn't come back all night.
The hostess found out the next day, looked into the kitchen, and sat down on the ground in fright.
I saw a red thing lying on the ground of their house, with hands and feet, like a person, and then I looked closely, it was a person covered in blood, and his whole body was covered with irregular tooth marks, as if he had been gnawed alive by something.
The man had several torn clothes beside him, which belonged to the man.
Since then, many people have died one after anotherโall of them have been torn off their skins, leaving behind a bloody corpse.
The people in the village were naturally panicked, and gradually they discovered that these dead people had something in common - they all had the kind of jars washed out of the river at home.
Now the people in the village are even more scared, many people directly throw the jar, but the jar is thrown, but the bad luck is not over, the village is dying every day, and there is a thick layer of blood.
Everyone has a legend that it was the water demon in the Yellow River who came out of the jar and wanted to eat all the people here.
Although this village has a long history, it is very poor, please can't afford to hire a gentleman, the Heavenly Master's Mansion is an official facility, which is in charge of the people's suffering, so this matter is handed over to the hands of the Tianshifu.
Cheng Xinghe and I finished reading the case information, and Cheng Xinghe dragged me directly: "Li Beidou, have you seen it, no matter where we go, we can't take the turn to gnaw bones." Last time, I peeled the skin this time, I think we should go to Xichuan to find Jiang Cripple, don't find this person yet, let's play in first. โ
The Xuan-level senior brother obviously saw it, and said with a smile: "Of course, our Heavenly Master's Mansion can't be difficult for others, if you feel that this matter is not sure, you are welcome to return the feng shui bell at any time." โ
This means that if we don't work, we will be thrown out.
At this time, I also saw that this Xuanjie senior brother seemed to be a little familiar - by the way, wasn't it one of the few children of the family who were with the black chicken when we entered the door?
This good apprentice really did everything to drive the master out.
I thought to myselfโthe god of water? So this cannibal thing, will you know about Xiaoxiang?
Besides, to find Jiang Cripple, we must stay in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and I will sum it up and say that we can try.
Even if this matter can't be solved, time can be delayed for a while, and maybe Jiang Cripple will come back at that time.
As long as Jiang Cripple is found, who cares whether he can enter the Heavenly Master's Mansion or not.
Cheng Xinghe stomped his feet angrily, saying that I was purely addicted to death.
And that Xuanjie senior brother didn't seem to expect me to agree, but he was stunned.
I then asked Senior Brother Xuanjie: "According to the rules of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, our bronze bells, that is, the apprentice Heavenly Master, should go out to work, and they should be brought by the high-level Heavenly Master, I don't know who you send to us?" โ
That Xuan-rank senior brother didn't expect me to be so familiar with the regulations of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and he was even more embarrassed, so he muttered, "It's the same...... Who are you looking for......"
At this time, a person leaned over, and when I saw it, it was an iceberg beauty.
She held up a notebook of her own, which read, "I'm willing to go." โ
I was stunned for a moment, do you know what's going on, you're going, it's really bold.
The Xuan-rank senior brother couldn't wait for this, so he immediately agreed, and hurriedly said: "Lan Ruyue is willing to go, that's great, you just take these two yellow-rank junior brothers, what about the two of you, just listen to the words of the senior sister." โ
It turned out that her name was Lan Ruyue, and her name was quite elegant, but when Cheng Xinghe heard her name, he showed a very unnatural expression, staring at her, and the senior brother of the Xuan Rank didn't look at it, and coughed: "You kid haven't seen a beautiful woman?" The eyeballs are off! โ
Cheng Xinghe came back to his senses and shifted his gaze, but obviously Lan Ruyue's expression changed a little.
Your love at first sight came late enough, and then I saw the black chicken probing his brain outside the door, and he was a little surprised to see that I hadn't left.
This criminal, if he doesn't rectify him, he will accept this apprentice in vain, so I waved my hand to him.
The black chicken came over with a look of self-inflicted misfortune, and I patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Good apprentice, for the teacher, I have to go out these days and go to the Yellow River." โ
The black rooster wanted to beat me, and the muscles on his face jumped suddenly, but he still clenched his fists and said duplicitously: "Then Master, your old man pays attention to your body......"
In fact, I can't wait for me to let the Yellow River Water Demon skin it, right?
I nodded again and again: "I understand your filial piety, then you go with Master." Since Master took you as an apprentice, he hasn't taught you anything, so take this opportunity to cultivate you well. โ
As soon as the black chicken heard this, a pair of eyes suddenly widened: "What did you say?" โ
If you say, I'll let you know what it means to lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot.
Of course, the black chicken knew the danger of the water demon, so he didn't cry on the spot, he stammered and made excuses, I didn't give him a chance at all, let him go back and pack his luggage and set off directly.
On the road, the black chicken has been depressed, and he doesn't want to eat, but Lan Ruyue sees him pitiful, and silently gives him some food and drink.
Lan Ruyue was already very good-looking, the black chicken was moved almost instantly, a pair of black chicken eyes looked at Lan Ruyue with affection, Cheng Xinghe frowned, as if he had been thinking and meditating.
I think he thinks he's jealous, saying that your life has to be fought for by yourself, if you like it, don't give your lover to others at will, let alone someone like a black chicken.
Cheng Xinghe's eyes darkened: "What qualifications does a person like me have to harm other girls' girls and make people a widow?" โ
After speaking, he reacted: "No, who do you say is my lover?" โ
"Isn't it Lan Ruyue?"
Cheng Xinghe glanced at me and said unceremoniously: "You know a fart." โ
In this way, the four of us arrived at the Yellow River.
The town was actually quite large, but as soon as you entered, the atmosphere was different - there was a sense of lifelessness.
Cheng Xinghe said in a low voice: "Strange, aren't there many people here who have been skinned and stripped to death, why haven't I seen any of them?" โ
I frowned, this did not bode well.
So we went into the village to find someone to inquire, but strangely, after a few shouts, there was not even a single reply from the huge town.
This feeling makes people panic.
The black chicken swallowed his saliva and said cautiously: "Should it be...... It's the people here who have been eaten by the water demons, right? โ
