The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 115 Respecting the River God

Taoist Yuyan didn't know whether he was too dull or too simple, but he still asked, "What are you doing?"

But the next moment, he came to his senses, his face changed slightly, and he seemed a little embarrassed.

He went on to say: "Junior Sister is right, it is not a pity for such a person to die, let's go."

After all, he said to Lin Shangzhen: "Master Lin, have they all arrived?"

Lin Shangzhen said: "Yes, we can start after the two of you arrive."

Yuyan said: "In that case, let's go."

"Please--"

"Sir, please—"

Yuyan made a "please" gesture, and was about to walk to the tower side by side with Lin Shangzhen, when she turned her head and saw that her junior sister was still listening carefully with her "listening ears".

Seeing this, Yuyan couldn't help showing displeasure, and said, "Junior Sister?"

"Junior sister—why are you still listening?"

"oh oh……"

Yuxin blushed, and quickly took off the listening ear, put it in her arms and put it away.

One hand was still trembling slightly.

Seeing this, Yuyan couldn't help being a little curious, what happened to her junior sister who heard something, and became like this.

However, it is naturally inconvenient for him to ask, so that his junior sister can say some obscenities.

"Let's go...Huh?"

Yuxin glanced, suddenly gasped in surprise, and said, "How come all the water ghosts that entered the yard disappeared?"

"Oh?"

When Yuyan and Lin Shangzhen heard this, they couldn't help but looked into the yard curiously.

Sure enough, the twenty or so water ghosts that entered the yard disappeared in an instant.

And the lights were still on in that house, nothing changed at all.

Even, they don't need to "listen to the wind ear", they can vaguely hear the sound of laughter.

Lin Shangzhen looked at the house and pondered: "It seems that we all guessed wrong. Since this person dares to live here, he really has some knowledge."

Yuyan wondered: "Your Excellency, you mean that the people who live in this yard took all those water ghosts?"

Lin Shangzhen said: "Besides this, is there any other explanation? We didn't make a move except himself, who else could have made a move?"

"impossible."

Yuxin immediately asserted: "This is absolutely impossible. He... how can he care about doing such a thing at this time..."

Yuyan also nodded and said: "Kill these twenty water ghosts in a few breaths without showing any signs of expression. Even I can't do this kind of thing."

When Lin Shangzhen heard the words, she glanced at Yuyan and said nothing.

It's just that the corner of his mouth evoked a sneer, which disappeared in a flash, and no one noticed it.

After a pause, Lin Shangzhen said: "Let's discuss important matters first. The matter of Jingcheng needs to be found out. If you two are interested, you might as well pay a visit tomorrow. Maybe this is one of yours too." Same way."

Yuxin immediately shook his head like a rattle, and said, "If I don't go, I won't go. This person is so...hmph, who knows what he will do when he sees this girl."

Yuyan said: "Let's talk about this tomorrow."

After saying that, the three of them walked to the city gate tower above the water gate next to them.

The long city wall once again regained its silence in the darkness.

On the top of the mountain far away, a round of bright moon quietly climbed up the top of the mountain, and sprinkled the cold moonlight on the dark earth.

Outside the city wall, the broad river was calm.

The moonlight sprinkled on the water, calm as a mirror.

Suddenly, a huge wave stirred up and smashed the moonlight.

In the water, there seemed to be a huge monster stirring up the waves.

It seemed that it just turned over, and the stirred waves only churned for a while, and then became calm again.

On the surface of the river, there are only circles of ripples left, rippling around, and the moonlight sparkles with the waves.

Before the circle of ripples disappeared, a line of water suddenly condensed from the bottom of the river, forming a "gully" on the river surface.

The water line extended rapidly, heading straight for the water gate under the city tower.

In the tower, the lights are bright.

In the empty room, there were no tables and chairs, and there were two rows of soldiers in bright armor standing around them, each holding their hands on the handles of their knives, standing awe-inspiring.

Deep in the tower, a wide gap suddenly opened on the floor.

Seven or eight arm-thick iron chains were pulled straight, protruding from the cracks, and hung on a huge winch on the roof of the building.

Hanging below the iron chain is the water gate of the west gate of Dinghezhou.

This winch is used to open and close the water gate.

A damp breath spread up from the crack, and the sound of waves hitting the city wall could be heard.

Yuyan and Yuxin walked into the city gate, and what they saw was the scene in front of them.

Looking at the empty city tower, the two were startled, and asked, "Where's the person?"

Yuyan looked back at Lin Shangzhen, and asked in surprise: "Master Lin, didn't you say that many comrades have come to discuss the matter of cleaning the city?"

Lin Shangzhen was silent for a while, and then said: "The matter of Jingcheng is not urgent. But there is another matter, but it is urgent."

Yuyan said, "What's the matter?"

Lin Shangzhen said: "The river god has become more and more irritable recently, and it is not very satisfied with the sacrifices we offer. If this continues, the delicate balance between Dinghezhou and the river god may be broken. "

Yuyan said: "The river god you mentioned is that huge monster in the river?"

Lin Shangzhen nodded, sighed, and said: "Yes. For many years, we have been relying on 'respecting the God of the River' from time to time to calm it down, and nothing has happened. But now... If there is no If a decent sacrifice is offered to the river god, Dinghezhou may be in great trouble."

Yu Xin said angrily: "A monster is so rampant. Brother, let's write to the master, but if one or two masters from the Mortal Sect come over, it's nothing to worry about just a monster."

Yuyan frowned after hearing this.

The junior sister's words are undoubtedly in response to that sentence, eating ashes and farting lightly.

How can the master of the sect be mobilized by these two small and lowest-ranking disciples?
However, it is inconvenient to say these words in front of everyone in Lin Shangzhen.

Lin Shangzhen shook her head and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the masters from the noble sect to come. Right now, I have to use another method."

Yuxin asked curiously, "What solution did your lord think of?"

Lin Shangzhen said: "Naturally, we must find two qualified sacrifices and offer them to the River God. After the River God eats satisfactory sacrifices, he will naturally be appeased. Then, we will get another period of peace in Dinghezhou."

Yu Xin wondered: "Your Excellency said that, you have already found a 'qualified' sacrifice? I'm a little curious, who is the sacrifice that Your Excellency is looking for?"

Lin Shangzhen said: "Such a sacrifice naturally needs to be noble and not weak. Only in this way can the river god be satisfied."

Yuxin asked: "Where is the sacrifice you mentioned? I want to see it."

Lin Shangzhen did not answer her question, but said instead: "It has been almost half a year since you two came to Dinghezhou. In the past few months, the two priests have done a lot of good things for the county by exorcising demons. The county is also deeply grateful for the two priests."

Yuxin laughed and said, "Why did your lord suddenly become polite to us, let's..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Yuyan's face suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly: "Junior Sister, run!"

However, he only reacted at this time, but it was already too late.

A piece of gold wire barbed wire suddenly descended from the air, encircling Yuyan and Yuxin all at once.

There were countless barbs on the iron net, and when the two of them struggled for a while, they were covered in blood.

Yuyan glared at Lin Shangzhen, and shouted: "We are disciples of Changong Mountain, if you dare to murder us, aren't you afraid that our master will come down and take revenge?"

Lin Shangzhen said coldly: "The people in Toad Palace Mountain are not gods, how can they see this scene? What's more, if you fight with us, that is to declare war on the court. Do you, Toad Palace Mountain, have the guts? Even if they have this Bravery, but would they do it for you two insignificant fools?"

"you--"

Hearing Lin Shangzhen's words, Yuyan's face suddenly changed. He rushed forward subconsciously, and seven or eight blood holes were pierced in his face, and blood flowed all over his face immediately.

However, at this moment, he couldn't care less about the pain, and his heart was already filled with fear.

Yuxin cried out tenderly, "It hurts so much. Brother, what should I do?"

Yuyan had already reached into his bosom, and took out two Taoist talismans.However, the iron net covering them has very small mesh and is covered with sharp steel wire barbs. How easy is it to throw the Dao Talisman out of the iron net?

At this moment, a loud roar suddenly came from under the tower, coming from the gap in the tower.

The sound echoed between the city walls, getting louder and louder, piercing people's eardrums with pain.

In the next moment, there was only a loud "boom", as if something had hit the city wall fiercely.

The huge force seemed to shake the city wall.

Lin Shangzhen's face changed drastically, he immediately waved his hand and shouted:
"Respect the River God!"

The soldiers in the tower immediately worked together to pull the rope hanging from the beam.

The iron net wrapped around Yuyan and Yuxin was immediately pulled off the ground and flew towards the crack ahead.

People and nets were thrown together through the crack.

Below the crack, there is a raging river and a hideous giant mouth.
