Chapter 425 The Rumored Truth
Jin Hui and the proprietress are one step ahead of us and have already arrived here.So we plan to go to the cottage to find them, and after reconciling with them, we will go into the mountain together.

As soon as I entered the stockade, I could smell the smell of meat in the air. It was someone who was cooking meat.The village is full of green bamboo buildings, and there is only one house with red lanterns hung in front of the door, red cloth wrapped around the door frame, and big red flowers tied.Stands out in a sea of ​​green.

There are several square tables in front of this house, and many villagers are sitting at the square tables, some are smoking dry cigarettes, some are chatting, the scene looks like a wedding in Yangshili village.

Because this house is at the entrance of the village, we saw it as soon as we entered the village, and the villagers also saw us.

They were dressed in rough linen clothes, the women wore their hair in coils, and the men wrapped their heads in blue cloth strips. Some of them looked like the dresses of ethnic minorities, very simple.Seeing a few of us, the villagers all stood up, showing a look of vigilance.

An old man stepped out from the crowd, speaking in awkward Mandarin, "Who are you?"

"We are here to find someone," Yu Chen said, "A man and a woman came here yesterday, where are they now?"

Yu Chen is the kind of person who has a strong air of coldness. An ordinary question comes out of his mouth like an interrogation.

The old man looked Yu Chen up and down, then looked at Wei Huang, and finally said, "There are two foreigners who came here. They didn't listen to our advice and went into the mountain yesterday. They haven't come down yet, so they are probably dead. It’s on the mountain. Stranger, the old man sees that you are extraordinary, you must be capable, listen to the old man’s advice, don’t go to the mountain to die.”

This is a good thing, Yang Jin didn't find it, so he paid two of them.

I looked at the old man, put on a naive and curious look, and said, "Old man, my master is the new general of the Demon Realm. He is very powerful. Could it be that we can't go up the mountain with him? There are so many water monsters on the mountain. Is it great?"

Hearing what I said, the old man showed a slightly startled expression. He turned his head to look at Yu Chen, and bent forward slightly as a salute.

"It turns out that you are a newly-appointed general, no wonder you have such an aura," the old man said, "General, you should go back to the Demon King's City. After returning to the Demon King's City, you have a bright future. If you stay here, you will only die. "

What he said was insane. Knowing Yu Chen's identity, he insisted that Yu Chen would die on the mountain.

Yu Chen didn't respond.Wei Huang, who was standing aside, was not happy. He frowned and said coldly, "Old man, do you know that you are easy to get beaten when you talk like this?"

Weihuang's aura is not inferior to Yuchen's, especially now that he is a little unhappy, he deliberately releases coercion and pushes towards the old man.

The old man couldn't bear Wei Huang's anger, his knees softened and he knelt on the ground.

Wei Huang raised his eyebrows with a proud face, "Remember, when you see us, you have to salute like this!"

Seeing the old man being forced to kneel down, all the villagers stared at us angrily.

"Why? Unconvinced?" Wei Huang sneered, his voice suddenly turned cold, "Then you all kneel down for me too!"

As the words fell, a majestic force emanated from Weihuang's body, and everyone was forced to kneel down.

"Now, let me ask you questions and answer them carefully. Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel!" Weihuang said, "What's the matter with the water monster? Tell me everything you know!"

Now I found out that Weihuang's attitude towards others is completely different from his attitude towards Yuchen.He distinguishes between his own people and outsiders very clearly.As his brother, he gives you loyalty and reliability.When he is his enemy, all he gives you is strength and killing.

Meeting someone like Wei Huang, the old man and the others could only consider themselves unlucky.Kneeling on the ground, the old man said, "Actually, we don't know when the water monster appeared..."

They have lived here for generations. They have heard from adults since they were young that there are water monsters in the back mountain, and no one should approach the back mountain. Once they go up the mountain, they will surely die.

Moreover, the water monster doesn't just stay in the back mountain. When the village is attacked by foreigners, the water monster will also go down the mountain to drive out the invading foreigners.

This cottage can survive in the devil world for hundreds of years, all thanks to the protection of the back mountain and water monster.

Hearing this, I said strangely, "This is not a water monster, isn't this the god who blesses the village?"

The old man nodded, "In our hearts, he is a god. He lives in the back mountain and never goes down the mountain to harm the villagers, and he will protect us. Our cottage is dedicated to him voluntarily."

As for the rumor of the water monster harming people, it was a complete misunderstanding.Decades ago, activities to sacrifice water monsters were held in the village, and live chickens, sheep and cattle were driven to the back mountain to honor the water monsters.But who knew that there was a young girl in the village who was curious about what the water monster looked like, so she mingled with the sacrificial team and sneaked up the mountain.

After her family found out that she went up the mountain, they must say that the villagers sacrificed their daughter to the water monster.At that time, the patriarch felt that the family's intentions were not right, and it was not suitable for them to stay in the cottage, so they drove the family out.

No one expected that after their family left the cottage, they would start to spread rumors that there was a water monster in Sijiang who possessed supreme mana, and if they could get his inner alchemy, it would definitely be of great help to their cultivation.

The demon world always respects the strong, and everyone pursues power.After hearing such rumors, people really came to the back mountain to hunt and kill water monsters, but without exception, all the people who came came back without returning.

The more people die, the greater the reputation of the water monster.The more famous the water monster is, the more people will come here attracted by it.It's just a vicious circle.At the beginning, the villagers were quite worried about the water monster. After all, the water monster is a good water monster. They didn't want any accidents to the water monster, but they couldn't stop the demon cultivators who came to kill the water monster.

But after so many years, their object of worry has changed from the water monster to the people who come to hunt the water monster.

The old man said, "General, you little heroes, what the old man said is the truth. I don't want you to hurt the water monster, and I don't want to see someone killed by the water monster again. General, turn around and don't go up the mountain."

I was also shocked.

Never expected that the rumored water monster that has harmed countless people turned out to be like this.The first person to kill the water monster was also a tiger. Do they believe what others say?

Yu Chen said, "Have you seen what the water monster looks like?"

The old man shook his head, "In these years, our cottage has been very peaceful, and the water monster has never descended from the mountain."

"Let them go." After speaking to Weihuang, Yuchen led me back to the mountain.

Wei Huang withdrew his strength, he said, "Old man, you can worry about the water monster this time, we will bring the body of the water monster down the mountain."

Hearing this, the old man had a look of panic in his eyes.To them, the water monster is the god who protects the village. They would rather us die than have any accidents with the water monster.

I took a look at Weihuang, why should he scare others!
When I looked at Wei Huang, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Meng Lou who was frowning. He was touching his small chin, looking preoccupied.

I asked what happened to Menglou?
Meng Lou raised his head and looked at me, he sniffed with his little nose, and said, "Brother, don't you think this smell is strange?"

I smelled it, "It's the smell of meat, what's so strange? Did you smell something else?"

Wei Huang glanced at Menglou, and then said to me, "Little attendant, your brother must be hungry. Why don't you go to the family just now and ask for a bowl of broth for your brother to drink. After your brother is full, wait After being swallowed by a water monster for a while, you can also be a dead ghost."
