Chapter Twenty-Six: Xi Cheng


"I was entrusted by the old patriarch to hand over his daughter to Master Leng, who happened to pass by the shore, but when I went back, I found that all the clansmen had been eaten by the Dansheng.

For so many years, I have lived in the Jade River, just because Leng Yu is still here, she is one day, I can't bear to abandon her, leaving her to live here alone. ” "If that Dansheng has eaten your people, why don't you let me kill it?"

The light in Yu Can'er's eyes dimmed, "I also hate it, I hate it to the bone, but if it dies, the world will continue to drought, and the people will not be able to make a living."

I wake up once in 30 years, and every time I can bring abundant rain and rescue countless victims, I can't bring disasters to the people because of my own personal grudges. ” "But once Dansheng wakes up, he will eat people."

Liu Xujiao expressed the doubts in his heart.

"Dansheng is a spirit animal, and since the scholar stopped it from eating people, it has never eaten people, so you can rest assured."

Kong Zhou and Liu Xuzhu stopped talking, they looked at the fish-tailed "person" in front of them, and their hearts rose like a tide of respect.

After a long time, Kong Zhou bowed deeply, and Liu Xuzhu also followed, "The fish-man clan has great righteousness and really admires it, don't worry, Miss Leng's revenge, we will definitely help you avenge it." ” Yu Can'er hurriedly returned the salute, "The two sons misunderstood what I meant, I never thought of seeking revenge against the villagers, and the reason why I haven't left after Leng Yu's death is because of another thing." ” Liu Xuzhu just wanted to ask what was the matter, Kong Zhou suddenly smashed his arm and said softly, "Brother Xian, it seems that the snoring has not sounded for a long time. ” As soon as these words came out, the three of them all widened their eyes, and at the same time looked at the bottom of the pool, and they saw that in the secluded pool, there were two lantern-sized eyes, orange-yellow, glowing with blood-red light, and they were looking at the boulder intently.

Yu Can'er was so frightened that she let out an exclamation, and accidentally fell back into the pool, Kong Zhou and Liu Xujiao just wanted to pull him, but a huge wave suddenly rose in the water, and rushed towards them, so that they couldn't stand up.

When they got up again, they were stunned by the situation in front of them: the thick snake body formed a circle, wrapping Yu Can'er in the middle, the snake's head was raised high, and the two forked tongues fluttered and trembled, and tapped and clicked on Yu Can'er's neck and face.

Yu Can'er was already paralyzed with fright, his fish tail could no longer swing, and his body seemed to be frozen, sticking straight into the water.

Kong Zhou wiped his face, glanced at Liu Xujiao, and at the same time raised the long sword in his hand, ready to fight to the death to save Yu Can'er.

But at this moment, the big snake's tail flicked, and its body snaked towards the outside of the cave, swimming to the water curtain, its huge head turned back, looked at Yu Can'er in the water, and nodded gently at him.

Another huge wave hit, and Dansheng plunged into the bottom of the water, through the water curtain, and the churning snake body rose and fell on the water, and disappeared after a while.

"It's really a spiritual creature, it knows that you saved its life, so it won't hurt you, and it can be regarded as a thankful retribution."

Liu Xujiao looked at the vast river and whispered softly, he pulled Yu Can'er to the water, "Fang Cai's words are only half said, why did you stay?"

” Yu Can'er was shocked, he gasped for a while, and then said to the two, "Don't hide it, I stayed for a child." ” "Kid?"

"I overheard your conversation with Xi Cheng and chased me here."

"That kid is Xi Cheng?

Does this kid have anything to do with the whole thing?

” Yu Can'er lowered her head, and two cloudy tears slid down her eyes, "On that day ten years ago, she was seriously injured by them and used her last strength to climb into the ice cave in the river, but those villagers still didn't let her go, they waved their oars and threw them at her body, breaking every bone in her.

At that time, I hid next to her and tried to swim over to help her, but she stopped her with her eyes, because at that time the river had basically dried up, and there was only a puddle of less than half an acre left.

In addition to that, she has another thing for me to help her do, and that is the child.

She told me, in a singing voice that only the fish-men could understand, that she had a child in the village, and asked me to find a way to take him away to prevent him from ending up like her mother, but before she could tell me who the child was, she bled to death. ” "That kid is Xi Cheng?"

Liu Xujiao's eyes widened.

Yu Can'er wiped away her tears, "I only learned recently, that day, when I found the real Yu Can'er's body and replaced it, I saw Xi Cheng, although he did not become a fishtail in the water, but that elegant posture and leisurely form showed that he was by no means an ordinary human child, and I also found a fish-scale birthmark on his arm, which was exactly the same as his mother's." ” Kong Zhou looked at Yu Can'er, "I still have a few points that I haven't figured out, that Miss Leng is pregnant and has a child, don't the villagers know?"

And who is the child's father?

” Yu Can'er lowered her head, "I also guess that the fish man is different from humans, the pregnancy time is short and not obvious, plus she lives alone, so it is also possible that she will not be discovered, she may give birth to a child unknowingly, but she also knows that her life is short, so she handed over the child to a villager who still has some friendship, that is, Uncle Xi, and then died calmly."

As for the biological father of the child, I really don't know who it is. ” "So you're staying here just to take him away when no one finds out who he really is?"

Kong Zhou continued to ask.

"Not only that, but I also want to bring her bone altar back to the South China Sea, after all, that is our homeland, and I think only in this way can she untie her heart knot and stop doing evil."

The afterglow of the setting sun shrouded the Jade River, shining brightly, and in the middle of the river, several black heads flickered up and down, letting out a cheerful laugh.

"Xi Cheng, come down quickly, you didn't compare with me last time, but you don't dare this time, you're such a coward."

Xi Cheng sat on the shore and kicked a splash at Er Niuzi, "Come back quickly, you guys haven't been playing in this river much recently, if something happens, how can you explain to your parents." ” Er Niuzi stuck out his tongue at him, and sang a song in his mouth, "Xi Cheng is a coward, he drinks foot washing water at home every day" Xi Cheng couldn't get angry, picked up a stone and threw it at Er Niuzi, where was Er Niuzi willing to let him go, he and a few playmates ran out of the river, the two raised their hands and two feet, and threw Xi Cheng into the water. ”
