Chapter forty-ninth, the river god marry

Pan Long read the booklet introducing the Demonic Way of Yunzhou and found it quite interesting. After thinking about it for a while, he simply returned to the store and bought a lot of miscellaneous books.

Some of these miscellaneous books introduce the customs and customs of a certain place, some tell a story about a strange story, and some simply make up stories by unknown literati. Pan Long even saw a book "The Travels of the Four Continents of the Frog, Fatty, Four Continents", which tells the story of an ugly, short and fat man with red cat eyes, traveling in a strange world divided into four continents by the vast ocean.

"I always feel that this story looks familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere before... is it my illusion?"

He read these piles of books for several days in the inn, and he read them with relish.

One day, he read a travel notation. The author was a man who called himself "The Old Man of Nanshan". He has been in the southeast of Yunzhou for many years and wrote a travel notation based on what he had seen and heard for many years.

The writing style of the paper is extremely poor, and the article is written very hard. If it were placed in the online literature industry in the previous life, I would probably not even have the opportunity to be put on the shelves, let alone how many subscriptions are.

But the biggest advantage of this travel notation is that the word "true". According to the author, he witnessed all the customs and customs recorded in it with his own eyes, and there was no way to hearsay.

Looking at this travel notes, it was like following this old man who had been wandering for half his life, walking among the mountains and rivers in the southeast of Yunzhou, walking through towns and villages, and seeing all kinds of people and things.

Pan Long read for a long time, put down the book, lay down on the bed, and sighed at the ceiling of the roof.

"In a blink of an eye, it was already the first month of the eighteenth year of Emperor Renchen. It has been almost three years since Afeng passed away!"

"If he is still here, I will definitely appreciate the 'Nanshan Old Man' when I see this travel notation."

"Three years have passed...time is so fast!"

"In the past three years, I have achieved great success in my magical skills, and I have become famous and free and easy... But looking back, I feel that the happiest day in my life is the life of becoming a young king in Dingfeng Town."

"If I had a choice, I would even prefer to go back to the world of my previous life. Even if it was ordinary in my life, the biggest living creature I had killed was just a cockroach, and I had never seen anyone killing and bleeding in my life..."

"It's probably how people are. When they are ordinary and stable, they want to pursue excitement. When they are used to the wind and rain, they feel that peace is the blessing..."

He sighed for a long time before he picked up the travel notes again.

After a while, when the book saw the end, he suddenly frowned and his eyes fell on one of the records.

"To the west of Hengduan, there are dozens of snow-capped mountains of all sizes. The snow melts into water, and dozens of streams gather. Because there are many peach trees in the mountains, when the flowers fall in spring, countless petals fall into the river water, so the river water is named "Peach Blossom River".

"There is a water god in Taohua River, and I have repeatedly asked for beautiful women as wives and concubines from the world. On the second day of the second month of the sixth year of Emperor Bingxu, I passed by Taohua River and met the river god to marry. The villagers used fine bamboos as rafts and chose a beautiful woman to dress up and sit on the raft, drifting along the water, but I don't know where to end."

"The woman is so beautiful, so she goes there, I'm so sorry!"

Pan Long couldn't help feeling very unhappy when he looked at this record.

The evil gods asked for human sacrifices, and this situation is recorded in folk legends. However, after the establishment of the Great Xia Dynasty, Emperor Jiazi swept the world. Any vicious monster who enjoys blood and food, whether it is a monster or a demon god, was killed by him. Gradually, "human sacrifice" became an ancient legend.

He himself once saw such legends in story books. For example, during the Tianxiong Dynasty, a river god asked for boys and girls every year to sacrifice. Later, a hero set up an ambush and poured the river god poison with poisonous wine, and slashed its head with a knife.

The sword became famous for it and was called the "Dragon Slaying Blade". This precious sword was passed down and later became the sword of Emperor Jiazi. It is said that after Emperor Jiazi's death, he was buried with this treasure sword.

The name of that story is "Dragon Slaying Blade".

But he never expected that such a thing would happen in today's world.

"In the sixth year of Emperor Bingxu... Isn't that happening more than 200 years ago? I don't know if this kind of thing will happen again after more than 200 years?"

He thought for a while, stood up and packed his luggage.

Today is the 19th day of the first lunar month, and there is still some time before the second day of the second lunar month. Now I set out to Taohua River, and I should have time to arrive before the River God gets married.

If that custom has been abolished, that's fine. If the bad habits are still there, he will take care of it.

If... there is really a man-eating river god in Taohua River, then he has to try it out even more. His sword is not good enough, and he can't kill this cruel evil god!

After making up his mind, Pan Long hurried on the way. The powerful bullies along the way were lucky. Because he was in a hurry, unless some evidence was conclusive, he would rather let go of other things for the time being.

Along the way, he killed three groups of bullies in total.

The first person to let a dog bite a person in the street, he chopped the dog's head and then chopped the person's head.

The second one was notorious and was directly broken into his house by him. The sword was as bright as snow, the lackey, and the bully died all over the place.

The last one was when discussing the murder and robbery business. He happened to be in the box next to the hotel. He heard the voice, and waved it through the wall, cutting the three people in the box into six sections.

These three murders were all done in broad daylight, without any scruples. As a result, when Pan Long came to the Taohua River and was resting in a tavern, he heard someone talking about the "Quick Knife A Fei".

It's interesting to say that he travels and stays overnight every day without delay, but his reputation is actually faster than his journey. It's really strange.

"Have you heard of it? That quick knife A Fei is coming here."

"I don't know which one here is going to be unlucky."

"Hehe, Liu Laohu's family, who has always been evil in the town, went out overnight yesterday and was said to be visiting relatives. When I passed by today, I saw that the door of his house was locked and there was no one inside."

"…He locked the door, how do you know there is no one?"

"The evil dog in his house would roar madly whenever someone passed by. Today I ran to his doorstep to see it, but there was no barking inside - do you think, even the dog ran away, are the people still there?"

"Haha, so that's it!"

"It's a pity that he ran too fast. If he were a few days later, he would have waited for the hero to pass by!"

"He can hide for a while, but he can't hide for a lifetime. If he continues to do evil, he will always be chopped down!"

"It's right! Cheers to this!"

In the corner of the tavern, Pan Long couldn't help laughing as he listened to the loud conversations of the drinkers.
