That child really considered himself the boss, and miraculously began to talk to us and assign tasks, "I heard clearly what you just said to the village chief, and I understand everything. You are Taoist yin and yang Feng Shui masters, right?" Bar."
I stood on the spot and nodded: "Yes, our five brothers are the best Yin Yang Feng Shui masters in the world."
"That's enough. Didn't you just tell the people in the village that it is your duty to help others and save others? What I hired you to do is to go to the shrine in the middle of the river and kill the river god as you said. Drop it. Do you understand?"
Geng Biaobiao licked his big belly and stepped forward to stop the kid who claimed to be the boss. He looked at Geng Biaobiao and asked: "Fat man, what are you going to do?"
Geng Biaobiao didn't answer him. He turned his arm over with one hand, and flicked the back of his head with the other hand.
The child was in pain and kept shouting: "Oh, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts like hell!"
"I have to let you know who is more powerful. It's us who help you, not your kid who hired us." Geng Biaobiao was a little arrogant.
I was so embarrassed that I couldn't laugh or cry, so I persuaded: "Geng Biaobiao, you are such an old man, but your personality is still the same as that of a child."
The little boy understood instantly and immediately begged for mercy: "I'm sorry, fat uncle, I know I was wrong, so I'm asking you to help me."
Geng Biaobiao then let go and let the little boy lead the way, leading us to find the River God.
After not walking far, we arrived at the river bank. A few of us hid in the reeds and watched secretly.
The little boy was still telling us quietly about the river god, "The sacrifices brought for sacrifice will be placed in a small boat tied to the shore, and then the boat will drive to the middle of the river by itself. Finally, it sinks in. So, you only need to get on a boat and follow the boat to find the river god. When it appears to eat the sacrifices, it is time for you to kill it. Do you understand? "
He just said this uncontrollably, and a few of us were still looking at the things the little boy gave us. I was especially interested in the Hetian jade ring, and I repeatedly praised its texture and feel.
The little boy got anxious, came over and punched me hard and said, "Did you listen to what I said?"
However, Su Fengfeng felt distressed and stroked his head with his right hand and asked: "Boy, whose child are you from? Even adults can't handle this kind of thing, let alone you as a minor."
The little boy was unhappy when he was asked this question. He pouted and said, "Humph, whose child am I? It seems that I have nothing to do with you!"
Xu Chengcheng also looked at this handsome little boy and saw that he was somewhat similar to the mustachioed man named Ma Muri, so he guessed: "Looking at you, you are probably the child of the village chief's family, right? Don't tell me, You and the mustache really look alike."
Li Huhu also responded, "Yes, you said so, Second Senior Brother. Now I see, except for the fact that he has no beard, everything about this kid looks similar!"
Geng Biaobiao also joked, "Even the arrogant and rude character is very similar!"
Xu Chengcheng said casually: "If this river god really only eats animals, it is not very evil, but I learned from your mouth that it can also harm people. Aren't you afraid that the river god will retaliate against you in the future?"
The little boy finally admitted and said, "Okay, I'll tell you my true identity. My name is Ma Haotian, and my father is the head of this village."
"Sure enough, I guessed right. Since he is the village chief's son, why do he still go against your old man?" I asked.
"We have been worshiping the river god here for more than a hundred years, and we have formed customs and traditions. But in the past year, there have been more and more floods. Then an old man who walked very slowly and had wrinkled skin all over his body came... Our village says that we have to pay tribute to the river god to ensure peace. And we can no longer send fruits and vegetables like before. We have to send living sacrifices, chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep." When the little boy said this, he seemed to open the door He picked up the chatterbox in his heart and began to talk.
"More than a year ago, we had constant disasters here. Heavy rains, floods, and powerful waves. The old man who claimed to be the messenger of the river god said that if we still want to have smooth weather and no disasters like before, we have to take live poultry. Domestic animals are brought as tribute. But they have to be offered for sacrifice every month, and the appetite of the river is getting bigger and bigger. In the past, there were only two cows to raise pigs and horses every month, but now there are at least ten domestic animals and at least fifty poultry. The whole village has Everyone is afraid of this evil river god, and my father has no choice but to discuss with the villagers that we all take turns buying a large number of poultry and livestock for sacrifice. However, when it was our family’s turn to make offerings to the river god, we The family was too poor to complete the task. Even though my father was the village chief, he was the poorest family in the village. So, he went to the butcher and bought some dead and sick poultry and livestock. Serve as a good tribute. That is, the one you saw brought over this morning."
At this point, I understood that this kid was really shrewd. He knew that his father's use of these shoddy and shoddy sacrifices would anger the evil river god, so he took out the treasure at all costs and hired Let's destroy the river god.
Li Huhu sighed and said: "Kid, your dad is really good at cheating and cheating. This was called speculation in the past. However, your dad is really an idiot. He used dead pigs and chickens to fool around. After passing the test, I really don’t take the water monsters in the river seriously. I really admire his weird idea. This will only make the monsters unhappy."
"Isn't it? The river god is so smart. He clearly requires us to use living animals to offer sacrifices. Dad's cunning operation will only be counterproductive. If not, it will even affect the whole village. I will never let it happen. The villagers will no longer be persecuted by this evil river god."
Su Fengfeng suddenly praised: "Haha, I didn't expect you to be so responsible and considerate of others at such a young age. Hey, how many adults are not as good as you now? Don't worry, we will solve the problem of the River God. Yes. Now, are you ready for the boat?"
The little boy was stunned and didn't know what to say.
Xu Chengcheng squatted in front of him again and said: "Without a boat, how can we cross the river to the shrine to deal with the river god. Besides, even if you don't hire us to destroy the demon, we will go there ourselves. Leave the river god who exploits humans alone. , that is the dereliction of duty of us Feng Shui Onmyoji masters, so this guy is left to us to deal with. It just so happens that I practice water-based Taoism, and I am enough on my own."
"Di Sheng, what are you trying to do? It's not your job to destroy demons alone. If you want to fight for a while, I have no objection to you being the main force." I teased Xu Chengcheng.
"That's right, let me see that you don't want to show off your power! Rather, you feel that the boomerang in your hand is hungry and you want to try killing a monster! If you are really good at it, let's practice your skills first." Li Huhu deliberately provoked the general.
"Okay, how about we try to have a fight first." Xu Chengcheng was honest.
"Okay, I'll be with you anytime. Fire and water don't mix. We haven't had a fight in a long time!" Li Huhu also became more energetic.
Everyone knows that water and fire cannot mix, just like the temperament of these two guys, but it is true that they have not fought for more than ten years. The last time the two of them fought was because of the issue of who would catch the ghost with the master.
"Okay, you two fools, since we have received payment from others, let's work hard for them. I think it won't be long before the boat goes to the middle of the river. We have to prepare to get off. Let’s deal with that fake river god.” I persuaded them impatiently and asked them to prepare for battle.
As soon as he finished speaking, the small boat carrying the sacrificial offerings moved and moved slowly towards the middle of the river.
When the little boy saw the movement, he quickly said: "Hey, have you seen it? The boat has moved. Come on board with me. We have to follow."
We immediately set off on the small boat prepared by the little boy in advance, and quietly followed the boat full of sacrificial offerings. We kept tracking at a relatively long distance...
