Li Daoxuan and others came to the Sishui River and saw the blue waves floating slowly like an abyss. The water was crisscrossed with algae and bottomless, and it seemed that there were many unknown dangers hidden in it.
"Immortal Master, this river was fine in the past. Although water ghouls appeared occasionally, they were not common. Bad people could just get rid of them here. But this time it was so frequent that the common people They don’t dare to get water for irrigation, and they don’t dare to transport water!”
The governor said with a sad look on his face, because of this incident, he almost had trouble sleeping and eating.
Li Daoxuan suddenly asked: "Where are the bad guys? Why didn't they come?"
Xuzhou, as a central state, should have a bad person in charge.
Chang Shi sighed and replied: "To be honest, Master Immortal, the bad guy who was in charge of Xuzhou has... died in this river!"
Li Daoxuan thought of the dead Lou Xiaoyun, and his eyes darkened slightly.
"Prepare the ship."
He said calmly.
The governor quickly asked: "How big of a ship does the immortal master need?"
"A flat boat is enough."
…
After a while, the soldiers brought the boat and placed it on the riverside, and then hurried away, as if they were afraid of falling into the water.
Li Daoxuan did not get on the boat, but looked at the governor and said with a smile: "Please, my lord."
The governor was stunned, his body suddenly trembled slightly, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.
"This this……"
Li Daoxuan said calmly: "Sir, I said before that if you want me to take action, you need to agree to two conditions. The first condition is to treat my horse to a drink. The second condition..."
Li Daoxuan pointed to the small boat and said: "Please come on board with me to eliminate the demon."
Sima couldn't help but persuade: "This immortal master, but my master doesn't know how to get rid of demons!"
Chang Shi also said: "Yes, and the son of a rich man cannot sit down in the hall. If you make a mistake, how can we explain it to the people of Xuzhou!"
Li Daoxuan laughed loudly and said: "Why, the life of the adults in your family is life, but the life of the poor Taoist is not life?"
It was not that he deliberately made things difficult, but that Li Daoxuan wanted to test whether the governor was a good official.
If he solved the monster in the river, it would be a great achievement for the governor, and Li Daoxuan didn't want to give his credit to a corrupt official in vain.
The governor took a deep breath, with a firm look in his eyes, and said: "You two don't need to talk anymore. The immortal master is right. The life of my officer is my life, and the life of the people is also my life. If I can exchange my life for the stability of Xuzhou, , worth it!”
He strode forward and stepped into the boat.
Li Dao
After that, Li Daoxuan stepped into the boat, waved his unicorn fly whisk, and the boat automatically floated to the center of the river without any wind.
In an instant, countless pairs of eyes stared at the two people.
Not only the soldiers on the shore, but also the people in the streets.
"Look, someone dares to ride a boat in the Sishui River!"
"Huh? That man is wearing official uniform and looks like a high official!"
"And the young man next to him should be a Taoist priest. Could it be that he is here to help us get rid of demons?"
"I see, that Taoist is too young. How high can he be? Not long ago, even that bad guy died!"
The people were talking a lot, and their words were full of doubts.
The main reason is that during this period, the government hired many monks and Taoists to come here to eliminate demons. The rituals were performed countless times, but the results were often unsatisfactory.
Those monks and Taoist priests looked like immortals, but in the end they all failed, let alone the young and handsome Taoist priest in front of them.
…
The boat floats slowly on the water.
The governor looked very nervous and stiff, looking at the surrounding river from time to time.
Li Dao
He poured a glass of wine from the Three Realms Gourd to the governor.
The governor took the wine glass with both hands, his palms trembling slightly and some spilled.
He was about to drink wine to strengthen his courage. Suddenly, the quiet boat shook violently, as if it had been hit by something.
The wine glass in the governor's hand flew out, and he almost fell into the lake. Thanks to Li Daoxuan, he held his shoulders and pulled him back.
winter! winter! winter!
Before the governor could thank him, he felt that the boat under his feet was hit hard again and became shaky, as if it was about to capsize at any time.
…
The people on the shore were frightened and shuddered.
At noon, when the sun is shining high, the dirt in the Sishui River is so rampant?
"It's over, it's over, this gentleman is probably going to be killed by that Taoist priest!"
"What a pity, this seems to be Master Wei, the governor. He is a good official!"
Someone's family had been harmed by monsters in the river. At this time, he couldn't help but kneel down and pray to God.
"For God's sake, please open your eyes, except for these monsters!"
Some women lamented: "That Taoist was born so handsome, and it's such a pity that he fell into the water and died like this."
…
Above Surabaya.
Li Daoxuan stood straight on the bow of the boat, letting the boat sway but remained unmoved.
The Luoyue Immortal robe is fluttering in the wind, like a big flag, standing erect.
He opened his eyebrows and looked at the bottomless Sishui River, and said calmly: "I want to see how many ghosts and monsters are hidden in this river."
Under the divine eye, the bottom of the river is as clear as a hole and a fire.
"One, two, three...eight."
He sneered and said, "How dare eight water ghouls come to seek death?"
He was actually a little disappointed in his heart, because it was said that more than 50,000 people were buried here, and the yin energy was so high. In addition, Zhang Laowu said that there were thousands of water ghouls in the river, more than the heavenly soldiers and generals.
Li Daoxuan originally thought he would make a lot of money today, but now it seems that he thought too much.
Water ghoul, also known as water monkey and fallen ghoul, was born in a place with heavy Yin energy. It looks like an ape and lives in the water. It is powerful and fast as lightning. It likes to drag living people underwater and block the seven orifices with mud. , as food.
Although there is a ghost character in the name, it actually has an entity, and it has a weakness, that is, once it goes ashore, its strength and speed will drop significantly.
For the monks in the fasting stage, the water ghoul is a certain challenge. If there are eight of them together, even the monks in the late stage of fasting may not be able to deal with them. It is no wonder that the bad guy died here.
But for the current Li Daoxuan, it can only be said that he can barely squeeze his teeth.
"Please ask the Immortal Master to take action!"
The governor said anxiously.
Li Daoxuan nodded, did not speak, but tossed the unicorn whisk in his hand.
The next moment, the fly whisk turned into a black jade unicorn, shaped like a musk deer, with a tail like a dragon, and two horns on its head, which looked majestic!
The magic weapon Qilin Whisk can temporarily transform into a black jade Qilin. Its strength is about the early stage of Yin Shen, and it has the magical power to control water.
Roar!
The black jade unicorn let out a roar of filial piety, and then plunged into the Sishui River, like a flying dragon entering the sea, like a ferocious tiger returning to the mountain.
The boat that was shaking violently suddenly became quiet.
