Liao Zhai's Refining God

Chapter 361 The Water Ghost
"Go to the old man's dream tonight, and ask about the situation carefully." Wang Lin thought for a moment.

Now that the rules of heaven are becoming more and more chaotic, and the Ancient Ming Sect is also making troubles in Xiyuan Mansion, one must be steady and not act too hastily, otherwise it will be troublesome if the other party plots against oneself.

After all, the launch of the Parachutist Temple is an obvious event, and passers-by in Xiyuan Prefecture know it well, and in the battle of Yinshan Pass, he played all his cards, and the opponent had a relatively good grasp of his reality.

It would be bad if the other party took the opportunity to trip him or Xue Fei and accidentally fell into the trap.

Especially when Wang Lin heard about the "Black Mountain God", Wang Lin became more and more vigilant.

At this time, in a corner of a corner of the Chenghuang Temple compound in Xiyuan Prefecture, five people huddled up. They simply made some weeds and spread them on the ground, and covered their bodies with some clothes they brought with them. Embracing and sleeping in the wind, make do for one night.

"The parachutist, the parachutist had a dream last night, the gods appeared, the gods appeared." The old man among the five suddenly sat up and danced with excitement.

It was extremely ear-piercing in the quiet morning light, and instantly woke up all five of them.

"Father, is it true? The City God has given you an answer." A young young man said in a daze and surprise.

They are fishermen in Pingkang County, and their ancestors have made a living by fishing and breeding in Gaoliu Lake for generations. However, a year ago, these fishermen had the same dream. In the dream, the God of Gaoliu Lake issued a warning to them. Living near Gaoliu Lake, every season, a boy and a girl are offered for it to eat.

The God of the Lake told that on the night of the first month of each season, boys and girls would be thrown into Gaoliu Lake on a raft, otherwise the God of the Lake would not allow anyone to approach the waters of Lake Gaoliu, otherwise the God of the Lake would descend to the lake. disaster.

At first, these fishermen didn't believe it at all, and they still went to Gaoliu Lake to fish, but strange things happened. Those fishermen who entered the lake to fish were dragged into the water one by one, and never came back.

Some people who were closer to the shore escaped by chance, saying that they were caught by "water ghosts" in the water and couldn't escape, but they were finally released. It was the lake god who sent a message to the fishermen, that is, no virgin Maiden, Gaoliu Lake is not allowed to come any closer.

These fishermen rely on Gaoliu Lake for a living, and they can't do without a livelihood, but they are willing to send their children to the tiger's mouth, so they start to think of ways around.

Because fishermen in Pingkang County accounted for [-]% to [-]% of the county's population, they united to report to the Pingkang County Government, but the Pingkang County Government did not believe that there were ghosts in this world at all, and drove them out on the grounds that the fishermen were ignorant.

As a last resort, these fishermen began to pray at the Town God's Mansion in Pingkang County, and finally got good news, that is, the Pingkang Town God's Mansion entrusted them with a dream, asking them to pray at the Town God's Temple in Xiyuan Prefecture, asking the City God of Xiyuan Prefecture to rescue them.

The reason given by the Town God's Temple in Pingkang County is that their position in the Yinsi Yamen of the county is too low to interfere with the actions of the Lake God. Only the City God of Fu has this qualification.

The nearby fishermen selected five people to travel long distances to the Fucheng God Temple, praying that the Fucheng God sent a messenger to deal with the "water ghost" harming people in Gaoliu Lake.But after many days of praying, there was no reply from the messenger from the Chenghuang Temple.

The five of them were quite depressed, because they didn't have much money, so they could only curl up around the Temple of the City God, praying every day, trying to impress the City God with their sincerity, but they had been here for half a month, and there was no response at all.

As for the old man, he was also depressed that day, so he walked to the parachutist temple inadvertently, went to offer incense and pray with an attitude of trying, and finally received the message.

"Father, what does the god say?" The others hurriedly asked.

"The Venerable God said that he is the God of War of the Xia Kingdom, and he will never allow anyone to bully the people of the Xia Kingdom. The Venerable God will investigate and deal with the water ghost incident. Let us go back and wait." The old man said excitedly.

"Then let's go back and report the good news to the folks. If the water ghost incident can be solved, I will build a temple and a golden body for the god in my hometown. I will offer incense every day." You said.

"Don't worry!" The old man waved his hand, then thought for a moment and said, "Before we leave, we will go to the temple to offer incense and pray, and make a great wish in public. If the god helps us solve the water ghost incident, we will do our best in our hometown. Respect the gods and build temples, sculpt golden bodies, and become loyal believers of the gods."

"Fathers and folks, the five of us are Li Erzhu and Li Tiedan from Pingkang County..." Soon, the five of them went to the Parachutist Temple to offer incense, and then shouted loudly in the wide square at the entrance of the temple. Less pedestrians, tell your story again.And issued a grand wish in public.

Xue Fei told Wang Lin about the investigation in his dream last night. Wang Lin felt that if the water ghost pretended to be the lake god to harm people, it should not be a big deal.

If the Ancient Ming Cult was secretly plotting, then one must be extremely cautious, but judging from the timing, it doesn't seem likely, because this incident happened a year ago.

So discuss it with Xue Fei and divide the troops into two routes.At the same time, envoys such as Ludi, Nie Xiaoqian, and Liu Dahong were summoned to discuss and assign tasks.

According to Wang Lin's plan, Wang Lin took the green flute first to visit Wang Lin's elder brother Wang Sheng, and by the way, to get a deeper understanding of the situation, it was only as a helper in dealing with the Gaoliu Lake water ghost incident.

In the second route, Xue Fei led his four subordinates Wang Han, Ma Chao, Zhuge Wu and Cui Ying, and Wang Lin sent Jiaolong Yinshen to assist.They went directly to investigate the situation of Gaoliu Lake from the front.If it was just a simple water ghost incident, it would be resolved easily.

Xue Fei ordered four of his nine subordinates to follow him on this mission, and the other five stayed in the Parachutist Temple in Xiyuanfu City.

"Brother, it's just a little water ghost, like my brothers. I don't know how many evil ghosts and ghosts have been hunted and killed in the past hundreds of years. You only need to send me and Brother Ma Chao to go there, and you don't need to bother brother Do it." Wang Han took a step forward and said in a deep voice to Xue Fei.

"My lord, I have had a very pleasant time with Master Futai and General Fujun these few days, and the safety of the two of them is related to your plan, and is also very important.

Gaoliu Lake Water Ghost, but Xiaoxiao's generation, with Master Xue Fei leading the formation, brothers Wang Han and Ma Chao, they are already easily captured, and it is unnecessary for me to go, why not let me protect Futai and Lord Fujun. "Jiaolong Yinshen also took the opportunity to say at this time.

"Brother Xiaojiao's words are very reasonable. You must be worrying too much." Wang Han immediately felt extremely comfortable after hearing Jiaolong Yinshen's words, and seeing Jiaolong's miniature body became extremely pleasing to the eye, he couldn't help saying impassionedly again.

"Don't be rude!" Xue Fei was startled, and quickly reprimanded.

His brothers have been ghosts for hundreds of years, and they are used to being unrestrained, and they have long forgotten the military discipline they used to have.They don't know that this gentle and kind-looking "son" is their master, if they are tired of them in their hearts, just one thought can wipe them out.

"Yes!" Wang Han resentfully remained silent, but it could be seen from their actions and expressions that Wang Han and Ma Chao were not very convinced.
