Moon Emperor

Chapter 443
"Su Yan, do you like me?" Yourong stretched out her hands and held his face.

Before Su Yan could answer, she continued: "I kind of like it, but it's not the first choice, right? That's why you chose to become a Taoist couple with Yuzhen instead of me."

This hit the target. Su Yan opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something but not knowing where to start.

Yourong didn't look surprised. Her eyes were a little confused, as if she was stuck in past memories, "I should have known this, when we first met, I should have been more proactive."

"In that case, maybe your Taoist companion will be me now, but it's a pity that it's hard to find a regret medicine in the world." There was a touch of melancholy in her voice.

Su Yan was anxious and was about to speak, but Yourong stretched out a finger and pressed his lips.

She said with a faint smile: "Listen to me, I understood too late. I have known since I was a child that I am not a smart child."

"It's just that when I'm very focused on something, and I'm so focused that I completely forget about and ignore other things, it makes me look like I'm a genius. In fact, I've always been dull."

When Su Yan heard this, he felt even more heartbroken when he recalled every detail of the two of them getting along in the past.

"It's a done deal. Originally, I didn't want to get entangled with you too much; but maybe there really is some kind of fate in this past life. After going round and round, we met again, and we had such a night of affection that penetrated deeply into my soul."

Yourong said, her expression becoming more gentle, "In this way, I will have no regrets in this life~"

This tone, as if she was giving her last words, gave Su Yan an extremely ominous premonition. He couldn't help but hold her hands tightly, "Yourong, listen to me."

"Since many years ago, I have felt that Yourong is a good girl with a good figure and a simple personality. She is the kind of girl who is suitable to be deceived and brought home."

"That's why I couldn't help but say those words to you when I returned to Qingcheng Palace; but now, my mind has changed."

Yourong looked like a curious baby, "What kind of change?"

Su Yan said seriously: "Yourong is such a good girl, I must marry you home."

Yourong burst out laughing, "Half-hearted villain~"

Su Yan nodded, "I am indeed such a bad guy, but I don't want to regret it for the rest of my life."

Seeing that he was becoming serious, Yourong began to change the subject: "Okay, let's not talk anymore."

"I"

Before Su Yan finished speaking, Yourong suddenly took the initiative to kiss his lips. The two people's minds seemed to be entangled at this moment, regardless of each other. They kissed inseparably, their hearts were intoxicated, and they separated after a while.

Yourong's cheeks were flushed and her breathing was a little short. She rolled her hair on her temples and said, "Go to sleep. There are other things to do tomorrow."

"But you haven't promised me yet." Su Yan obviously didn't want to be fooled by Yourong.

But Yourong turned over, revealing her smooth and beautiful back, "Let's talk about it after we get out."

Su Yan hugged her from behind, "You haven't said yet, how did you get here? I didn't see you in the team at Qingcheng Palace before."

"Let's talk about it after we get out~" Yourong still said in a coquettish tone of "I won't tell you."

Su Yan was a little helpless, so he had to bury his head in her messy long hair and neck, smelling the faint fragrance of pear blossoms and said, "Then let me ask you something related to the world in this book, is it okay?"

Yourong snorted with a nasal sound.

"When the jade hook was stolen, the boatman told me that the Narcissus Queen would take away the treasures from passing passengers. Is this true?"

Yourong was a little confused after hearing this, "It probably wasn't Mrs. Yujing's fault. Anyway, after I entered the world of the book, I got the past memories of the character Yujing. There was no part about her plundering everywhere, only the part where she took away the jade." Hook this time.”

"Then where did the rumors come from?" Su Yan was a little confused, "Forget it, let's not worry too much. If everything goes well, we can leave this world in the book in a month or two."

Yourong agreed softly.

As mentioned before, the story of this mortal man winning a precious jade hook and a goddess wife by gambling will come to an end after the mystery is revealed.

The ending is also very simple. From then on, the protagonist regards the mirror and the hook as treasures and carries them with him day and night.

After he and Mrs. Yujing traveled far away for a while, when they were about to return to their hometown, Yujing suddenly said to the protagonist: "Mr. Your life will soon be over. The God of Poyang Lake has asked the Emperor of Heaven for orders to let you go to the main office." Cross the creek.”

As expected, the hero fell ill the next day and couldn't hold on any longer while crossing the river. Before his death, he left his last words and asked for a jade mirror and a jade hook to be buried with him.

The followers followed his will and buried the protagonist and the second treasure on the south bank of the Yuexi River.

The story ended abruptly here, but from Su Yan's point of view, it would probably have a happy ending. Since they all became water gods, if they were lucky, they might still be able to enjoy the blessings of being together.

As far as Su Yan and the others are concerned, they won't have to do any branch plots in the future and just "go on a honeymoon". In theory, after the finale, even if they can't go out immediately, the world in the book will change accordingly.

The next day, although Yourong still didn't appear in front of people, he no longer hid and accompanied Su Yan on a sightseeing trip.

This made Su Yan look like a lunatic and even talked to himself in the air, but he didn't care. The two of them visited temple fairs, listened to operas, threw pots, rode horses, and went for an outing. The day passed in the blink of an eye.

Just when they thought that such a relaxing and happy day would last for a while, that night, a strong wind suddenly came up on Tiao River, dark clouds came over the top, and thunder rumbled.
"Reef the sails! Reef the sails!" The hoarse shouts and running sounds of the boatman and helpers seemed insignificant amidst the sound of wind and thunder, as the boatmen tried their best to cope with the coming storm.

Su Yan in the cabin was a little worried, "What's going on?"

Yourong also frowned, "This doesn't look like natural wind and rain. There are traces of divine interference. I'll go out and take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, a majestic old voice suddenly came from outside: "Sinner Yu Jing, come out and die immediately!"

Su Yan was shocked when he heard this. This voice was the voice of the Taihu Water God. The two parties had been betting dice all night, so he couldn't have heard it wrong.

But this is not the original development in the story at all. Logically speaking, it is almost coming to an end. How could the Taihu Water God suddenly come to kill him?Could it be that what I had been worrying about finally happened? "Wait for me here," Su Yan immediately held your hand before Yourong finished speaking.

No need to speak, just a look, Yourong understood that this man could not wait here obediently.

So she could only say helplessly: "Then you hide next to me later and don't act recklessly. You are just a mortal in the book world now. If you die, you will probably be gone."

Su Yan's thoughts changed quickly, "Okay."

While he agreed, he took the jade hook out of the brocade box and stuffed it into his arms.

As soon as the two men got on the deck, they saw that they were surrounded.

A large number of shrimp soldiers and crab generals appeared on the surrounding water, and a group of water tribe troops were also surrounded by clouds in the sky. Flags were fluttering in the clouds, and war drums were beating in the sky. All the mortals on the boat were frightened to death, and they all knelt down and begged for mercy.

The leader of the Shui Tribe army is a middle-aged and elderly man wearing a black gauze hat, a black dragon robe, a white jade belt around his waist, thick-soled soap boots, and a beard on his chin. He has a serious face. When he sees the two people coming out, he is pretending He took out a silk book and read:
"Jade mirror, you were originally the water god of Tiaoxi River, and you enjoyed the incense. You were supposed to abide by your priestly duties and protect the place with good weather. However, in the past five or six years, you have robbed passers-by many times. Anyone who carried treasures, It will be yours.”

"Such crimes have caused complaints among the people and filled the sky with anger."

"Your reputation has become bad, but you still don't know how to repent. Recently, you stole the most precious jade hook from my Taihu Water Mansion."

"I was just about to pursue the case and get it back, but I also heard that you had made a lifelong private contract with a mortal, abandoned your priesthood and left the temple, leaving Tiao River unattended."

"The combined punishment of these three crimes is enough to give you a death sentence. What else do you have to say?!"

As soon as the Taihu Water God's voice fell, the surrounding Shui tribe troops raised their weapons and shouted in unison, "Death penalty! Death penalty! Death penalty!"

Some of the timid ones on the boat had fainted from fright, but Yourong frowned and said, "Taihu Divine Lord, your words are too biased."

"First of all, during my period in Si Tiao Xi, my master did not repeatedly steal the treasures of passing travelers, but someone slandered me."

"Secondly, the jade hook was originally a prize won by Wang Youle, a mortal man, playing games with you. Later, when he passed by Tiaoxi River, I wanted to get acquainted with him, so I deliberately took the jade hook away and gave it back to him, so that I would do nothing wrong. "

"Thirdly, I did not abandon my priesthood privately. Before I left Shuixian Temple, I had ordered the female officials to write to the Emperor of Heaven to explain the matter in detail. Someone will take over later. Before the arrival of the new god, all the female officials fulfilled their duties and patrolled the Tiao River day and night. How come there is no one to look after the place?"

"In the end, even if I take a step back, I am really guilty. How can it be your turn as the Taihu Water God to take care of me?"

"Don't you like impeachment? Why don't you write a letter to the Emperor of Heaven to impeach me this time? Are you worried about exposing the scandal that you met mortals for gambling all night and almost lost all your wealth?"

When he said the last sentence, he was clear-cut and pointed with his sword pointed upward!The words were loud and clear.

As soon as this statement came out, those Taihu aquatic people looked around and believed [-]% to [-]% of them. After all, their boss was famous for being addicted to acanthus.

The Taihu Water God suddenly became so angry that his face turned green and white, "You are so bold and a bitch, how dare you speak such arrogant words! Come here, come with me to capture her!"

Su Yan watched this scene coldly. The situation was now very clear. The Taihu Water God was unwilling to let the jade hook be won by him. He was probably still grudges about it and even sent someone to follow him secretly.

After Mrs. Jade Mirror "committed a crime", the Taihu Water God hatched a poisonous plan of "killing two birds with one stone". As long as the Jade Mirror was taken down, both the jade hook and the jade mirror would be in his hands.

No, this matter should have been planned for a long time and was not a spur-of-the-moment idea. The Taihu Water God probably started to take advantage of Mrs. Jade Mirror after he successfully obtained the jade hook.

In the past five or six years, the Tiaoxi Water God's robbery of tourists was either something he sent people to do secretly, or it was a rumor he sent people to spread.

The purpose is that one day in the future, I can use this as an excuse to take down the jade mirror openly and get another treasure.

Originally, he shouldn't have come forward in person today. The old trick of "snitching" was the best option. He just needed to find a way to get Mrs. Yujing's body after she was tortured.

However, due to Su Yan's intervention, the Taihu Water God is now on the verge of death, because when Mrs. Yujing is interrogated, she will definitely tell the story of him gathering mortals for gambling all night, and she might be implicated in it.

To be on the safe side, the water god chose to take action directly. Anyway, the charges had been arranged, and if everything went well, he should be able to suppress them; if not, he would only be suspected of being a dog with a mouse, and even if the higher-ups blamed him, it would only be a small one. crime.

It has to be said that this development is not only in line with the original context of the story, but also very tricky; I don’t know whether it is because the stories of the two worlds are different in themselves, or because the mysterious old demon secretly changed the plot.

But no matter what, now Su Yan and the others are in danger of life and death!
First of all, he himself is not a combat power, he can only be regarded as a burden.

Secondly, although Yourong is now on Tiao River and has not completely resigned from the priesthood, it can be regarded as a home battle; but opposite is the God of a lake. Whether it is the scope of his rule or the soldiers under his command, it is far better than the water god of a stream. .

According to the ancient myths Su Yan has read, such as "The Legend of Liu Yi", it is clearly stated that the Dongting Water God is a dragon king, including the Qiantang Lake God, who is also a dragon king. The Taihu Water God is probably also of dragon origin.

In this way, the gap in combat power between the two sides will further widen. How to break the situation?

Go to Poyang Lake Water God for help?That one seems to be quite fair and righteous, otherwise he wouldn't have written to the Emperor of Heaven and asked him to be the God of Crossing Streams because of a bet with the protagonist.

But let alone the long journey to Poyang Lake, the Taihu Water God in front of him cannot let him go, because he knows too much. I am afraid that everyone in this boat will have to stay here. Anyway, the blame can be pinned on Yu Jing On Madam.

While Su Yan was thinking about countermeasures, the battle between the two sides had already begun.

Yourong originally wanted to call out his men for help. Although there were few sailors in Tiaoxi, they could play a diversionary role to some extent. However, she did not expect that when she gave a divine order, she found a golden net-shaped brilliance flashing on the water, but no one responded.

Moreover, the mysterious connection between her and Tiao Xi was suddenly weakened a lot.

The Taihu Water God sneered, "Since we are encircling and suppressing you in Tiaoxi River, how can we let you take advantage of the favorable location and die obediently!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the water god revealed his dragon form, which was a black horned dragon. This dragon had a single horn and no beard. It had 81 scales on its back and had nine or nine yang numbers. Its voice was like a rattling copper plate, with the ability to call for wind and rain, and turn rivers and seas upside down. able.

Yourong drew a magical talisman with his left hand to stabilize the ship, and then he flew into the air. He pulled out a silver hairpin with his right hand, turned it into a three-foot green blade, and stabbed towards the horned dragon!
