Earth Immortal Righteous Path

Chapter 310 Xianxi Ghost Feast
In the deep valley, by the side of a deep stream, a young man in brown clothes and shorts, with bare feet, leaning against a boulder, folded willow leaves, and played.

Soon, he seemed to be bored, the setting sun was shining, he was half lying on the bluestone, resting his head on one hand, and spreading the other hand on his dantian.

Eyelids drooped, half-closed and half-opened, chest slowly rising and falling, like a turtle raising its head to breathe, but it is practicing a simple breathing technique.

Soon, the sun was setting and the stone was still warm. The boy seemed to have fallen asleep.

There was a splash of water, and a strange creature with a shrimp head and a stone fork in the stream came out of the water.

"The time has come, it's time to go back."

The monster spoke coldly, but it always sounded like a strange dialect.

The young man stood up slowly, stretched his waist, and opened his mouth to breathe out a long stream of white air, which was more than four feet long, and hit the bluestone, leaving a shallow white mark.

On this huge bluestone, there are many other imprints like this, but they are all relatively shallow.

The imprints range from shallow to deep, and it can be seen that teenagers often practice here.

Seeing this scene, this half-human, half-shrimp creature couldn't help being jealous, and the shadow said strangely:

"The human race is really blessed. You kid can exhale into a sword after only three months of practice. No wonder you can become a fairy in hundreds of years. Unlike me and other aquariums, first you have to open up your spiritual wisdom by chance and coincidence, and then you have to break through. Even though it is difficult to transform into a form, even after thousands of years of hard work, it may not be possible to obtain a positive result."

Speaking of this, the shrimp soldier was even more furious, especially when he saw that the young man didn't even look at him.

Immediately swinging the stone fork, it danced in the air like driving a flock of sheep.

"Go back quickly, the goddess is going to count the number of people, so be careful when you go late."

Its big eyes looked up and down maliciously, and laughed again.

"Little Ding Dong, I see that you are so white and clean, I'm afraid you can't stand the whip?"

The boy walked straight over without looking aside, and walked into the stream step by step.

Just when passing by this shrimp soldier, he said softly:

"Today, I was promoted to Chief Attendant. I'm in a good mood. I don't care about you for now, but just don't ask me for it in the future."

As he said that, he shook a black jade waist card on his waist towards the stream, the water surface separated to the two sides, and the flowing water under his feet formed layers of soft stairs.

He just stepped on it and slowly entered the depths.

Indistinctly, you can see a sparkling crystal palace under the water, with the inscription "Xianxi Water Mansion".

The shrimp soldier was still thinking about what he said.

"Chief attendant? He has been promoted to the position of chief attendant. Doesn't that mean that all the work will be assigned to him in the future? But it doesn't make sense, he is obviously a human race!"

"Could it be..."

Xia Bing thought of something, covered his mouth, looked around, and hurried back to Shuifu.

In the water mansion, it is magnificent, full of coral pearls, porcelain and antiques, placed in various places in the hall.

In front of the gate, there were a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals guarding the door, and the boy passed through smoothly after checking with his waist card.

Only the Xianxi Goddess can enter and exit the main entrance of the Water Mansion, and there is a side entrance beside it, and he just entered and exit through the side entrance.

Every day, he has the opportunity for three hours to leave the water mansion and play on land.

After all, they are not born aquarists, and they cannot always stay underwater without seeing the sun for a long time.

"Although the Water Palace is good, it's not my home after all."

Walking on the brick surface paved with white jade in the water mansion, the young man thought to himself.

The waist badge has another advantage in the water mansion, it can make him breathe like an aquarium, and his whole body seems to be surrounded by water, but in fact there is a layer of separation.

He has practiced qi for three months, and the young man can already feel an invisible force on his waist card, which cuts off the water flow and filters out the air. This is the biggest reason why he can survive in the water mansion as a mortal.

Along the way, there are many clam spirits who have transformed themselves, like a girl in the world, wearing Qiluo palace costumes, and saw him turning slightly sideways.

In the water mansion, they are all the most inferior waiters, and naturally they will take the initiative to salute when they see the young man, the head waiter.

At the age of seven, the teenager and his elder sister were tied to a raft filled with flowers and fruits by the goddess who worshiped the water god, pushed into the water, and became boys and girls given to the water god.

Orphaned since childhood, the young siblings depend on each other for life. Even if they become the lowest waiter in the water mansion, they advance together and retreat together.

In a blink of an eye, it is seven spring and autumn.

The young man has lived in the Water Mansion for seven years, and he has finally made it through. He has risen from an ordinary waiter who does rough work, to a waiter who arranges flowers and plants, and then to a small boss who takes care of two or three, the big boss who manages the medicine garden, and finally Now the chief waiter in charge of all the waiters.

He is in a part of the water mansion, and has his own single-door courtyard, and as the chief attendant, he finally has some preferential treatment.

The water mansion is very large, covering an area of ​​tens of acres, and there are two to three hundred shrimp crab generals and various aquarium spirits.

Although the Xianxi River is only a small body of water that is no more than three feet wide and less than twenty miles long, the Goddess of Xianxi River is a water god, with the Maolin Jiang family behind her, she has a big background!
If not, how could it be possible to build such a large Crystal Palace, sitting on the foundation of tens of thousands of believers along the way?

When I arrived at the residence, it was just a simple small yard and two or three rooms.

One of them is his bedroom, the other is his study, and the last one is a quiet room for practicing.

Three months ago, he made contributions, was rewarded by the goddess, and qualified to practice the law, so he specially bestowed such a stone house made of bluestone.

Walking into the yard, I saw my elder sister in a long green dress with long sleeves to greet her.

"Sister, I'm free today, how can I have the time to come to my brother?"

The elder sister Ding Yuchen is the accountant in charge of the income and expenditure of the Water Mansion, or in other words, he is in charge of the accounts.

In this water mansion, there are also welcomes and send-offs, and the expenses are not small, and it is a troublesome thing to go in and out of the water every month.

My sister learned abacus at her mother's knee when she was a child, managed the family's accounts, and was able to read and write, so she finally got this job.

There are quite a few aquariums in the water mansion, but those who can read, calculate, and read account books are really rare.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to take the turn of a junior.

That's right, it's the juniors. Most of those aquariums have spiritual wisdom after being enlightened by the goddess of Xianxi, and the youngest has been with the goddess for five or sixty years.

It's just that they didn't transform themselves by themselves. It seemed that the goddess didn't pay much attention when transforming. As a result, they were not completely transformed, either with a shrimp head or a dancer with pincers.

On weekdays, Ding Yuchen is also very busy. The cashiers in the whole house spend money, even if it is a piece of silk or a potted flower, there is a fixed number, and there are records for the outbound and inbound warehouses. have.

The Goddess is from the Jiang clan of the Maolin clan. It is said that this clan is also related to the Dragon King of the South China Sea, and is quite famous in the Maolin area.

Every ten days and a half months, I can always meet several guests, either the land of a certain place or the gods of mountains and waters elsewhere.The god of the river, or some wild god or hair god who has no serious duties, came to pay his respects.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the elder sister is much busier than the younger brother.

"Ding Dang, listen to my sister."

Ding Yuchen took his younger brother's hand, walked to the depths of the yard, and lowered his voice.

"There will be another banquet in three months. This time it's a ghost banquet. You must take the opportunity to escape, otherwise... In short, my sister will definitely help you."

Ding Yuchen was so anxious that he held his younger brother's hand tightly and said in fear.

"What is a ghost feast?"

Ding Dang asked strangely, this is the first time he has heard of this kind of banquet, and it has never been held in the water mansion.

"Ghost feast, that's a place to eat people.

People like you and me are rooted mortals selected by the sorceress. According to some superficial methods taught by them, breathing in clean air, removing yin and turbidity, it will be a good dish when the time is full, within three hundred miles. , the ghost banquet here is the most famous. "

Sister's life is already ruined, but you are still here, I can't watch you get stuck here...

You escape, don't run around here and there, hide in the Temple of the Three Sages, I have inquired about it, it is the ancestral temple of the Three Sages of Good Fortune, and it is dedicated to the ancient gods that existed at the beginning of the creation, they will never dare to go in and search human. "

After finishing these words, Ding Yuchen looked closely at his younger brother, as if he wanted to reflect his voice and smile into his heart.

"Do you understand? You must escape!"

"On the ninth day of September, there will be ghosts and gods from all walks of life. According to the usual practice, there will be a banquet. This is the last chance. We can't wait until the day when the ghost banquet comes."

"Just remember, that day the Goddess must have no time to avatar, you take the time to slip away, lose your badge, go straight to the Temple of the Three Sages, and my sister will cover you!"

"Remember! Don't come back again!"

Ding was shocked, thought about it carefully, and indeed considered several things that were wrong.

"Yes, there are boys and girls offering sacrifices every year. It stands to reason that there should be more than a dozen people in the past seven years. Why are there only my sister and brother now?"

"Also, inexplicably promoting me as chief attendant, even surpassing the old man who has been with me all year round, is not in line with common sense. As for the trivial contribution of finding the hairpin left by the guest, it is just an excuse."

"As for teaching me the method of refining Qi, it's just to make the ingredients more delicious."

"What a goddess of Xianxi, a water god who eats people!"

He held his sister's hands instead, and said with red eyes:
"Sister, let's go together!"

Ding Yuchen withdrew his hand and shook his head.

"You and I are hostages to each other, how could we have the opportunity to leave the mansion together? Over the years, have you ever seen me leave at the same time as you?"

Before Ding Dang could answer, she answered it herself.

"Never once! Every time I was called to take inventory of the treasury, or there was some old account somewhere, or there was something bothering you... In short, you and I are siblings , because of this, with me as a hostage, you have the blessing of going out of the house to play for three hours a day, brother, you haven't understood it yet!"

Like a thunderbolt from the blue, Ding Dang smiled miserably, and almost didn't know how to answer. He just felt that he was really fascinated by the mud, and lived in a dream in the past.

Any stable life is false, like a bubble.

It turned out that the "privilege" of being able to go ashore for three hours a day was obtained by his sister as collateral!
"Brother, it's good if you understand... In the past, I saw through but couldn't tell the truth, because I had no other choice. Otherwise, where could you and I, sister and brother, go besides staying in Shuifu?"

There were crystal clear tears in her eyes.

"There are no elders in the family, and the family is full of wolves. How can it be such a tragic word that the noble family of the magistrate was chosen as a sacrifice by the goddess in the temple?"

"You and I are young, and we can still survive here. Even if we escape, where can we go? It's hard to return home, not to mention that we are all treated as dead. Those people in the clan must have already divided up the property in the family. Even if you go back, you will not escape the disaster of killing yourself."

Ding Dang was ashamed and angry at the same time. He hated the shameless framing of the elders in the clan, hated himself for being powerless, hated this man-eating ghost, and was even more ashamed that he had let his sister think so much for him.

"Sister, it's my fault, I didn't even know you did so much..."

Ding Yuchen burst into tears, stretched out his hand and slowly stroked his younger brother's head.

"Eldest sister is like a mother, who told you that you are my real brother? I don't even protect you, who else can protect you?"

"elder sister·········"

Ding Dang choked with sobs, stepped forward and hugged his sister, weeping silently.

Ding Yuchen just patted his brother on the back lightly.

"Brother, you are born extraordinary. Dad once said when he was alive that when she was pregnant with you, mother dreamed that the red sun was in her arms, and when she was born, it was even more fragrant and slow. He is a sage who came to the world, and he is destined to be famous in history!"

"He also said that the ancestors of our Ding family were eighteen ministers who founded the country, Duke Huaihai, and you still have the title of county magistrate passed down to you. Maybe you will be able to regain the glory of your ancestors in the future."

"Unfortunately, I can't see it..."

She is only three months older than her brother, so she has to take on responsibilities that don't belong to her, and she is strong enough to protect her brother from the wind and rain.

In this strange underwater palace, there are strange aquariums everywhere, who knows how much painstaking effort she has put in and how much suffering she has suffered.

"Brother, you have to remember, you must be careful when you go back. Our parents died strangely. Dad was a man with a title, and his sudden death should have alarmed Dali Temple. The central government has a special person to thoroughly investigate this matter, but after the accident, there is no trace of half of the people, there must be a big secret in it."

"So you can't appear as the Ding family, and you can't easily get involved in this matter. Anonymity is the best policy."

Ding Yuchen couldn't help feeling sad when he thought about being separated from his younger brother. He had to work hard to explain everything clearly.

It was not easy for her to come out once, and as the ghost feast approached, the surveillance on her became stricter.

This time I also sneaked out, and the time was very tight, so she couldn't let her speak slowly.

"Brother, you have to keep in mind! Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge!"

Ding Yuchen grabbed his younger brother's hand and looked at him and nodded solemnly.

"Whether it's the cause of my parents' death, or the ungrateful clansmen, or the ghosts and gods around here, the witch who forced us to be sacrifices at the beginning... is not easy to deal with!"

"You must be more cautious and more cautious! If you are not a great weapon, you will never have revenge!"

"promise me!"

Ding Dang was already in tears, he was still a child after all!

"Okay, I promise my sister, if I don't become a great weapon, I will never think of revenge!"

Ding Yuchen could see that his younger brother really remembered it in his heart, and he was relieved.

"That's good, that's good, brother, you will be considered a great achievement when you are in the imperial court and have power over the world in the future. What can you do if you want to do it!"

"When my power is all over the world, I will liquidate them one by one, and tell them to pay with blood!"

With a crying voice, the boy uttered harsh words.

　This volume returns to Xianxia.By the way, the protagonist is separated from the main god this time.
