Chapter 79 The Envoy
Two months passed by in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, another two months passed.
In the quiet river water, the endless ice skin has long become fragmented. After most of it melted, the water volume of the river bed increased. The remaining ice that did not melt moved with the waves, and half of it floated on the surface of the water. Up, swaying, up and down.
Just as the moonlight poured into the water, the sky was sparkling, shining all around, and filling the air with white. The moonlight, ice color, and water color are intertwined like a mirror. Faintly, they can be seen in the ups and downs of the waves, as if there are heavy scales and tumbling shrimp skin.
Further down, a giant turtle suddenly carried a treasure sedan in front, and behind it were hundreds of neat sailors, sneaking in the rugged river, rolling waves, one after another.
A canopy was propped up on the sedan, with water-proof beads hanging on it, which blocked the surrounding waves and made the interior of the sedan empty and clean. The horned shrimp will sit firmly and upright, with horns on his forehead, which are like blades. He is holding a bamboo scroll in his hand, and his face is as sinking as water.
After a while, Jiaokou Xijiang put down the bamboo book and spoke slowly: "In two months, I killed fifteen demon generals and captured two-thirds of the territory. If I had known the evil General Snake is powerful, I didn’t expect him to be so powerful.”
His voice was deep and he felt quite uneasy.
Even though he read the book himself, he couldn't believe his eyes. This achievement was really too exaggerated!
Sitting next to this demon general is a little maid with a bun, a round face, and big eyes. She looks young and cute. After listening to Jiao Kou Xijiang’s words, she smiled and said, “Yes, General Black Snake is powerful.”
The girl looked innocent: "That's why the River God sent us here, hoping that we can help General Black Snake, collect the entire Huangsha River as soon as possible, and truly incorporate the Huangsha River water veins into the Luanshiwan Water Mansion system. ”
Jiaokou Xijiang looked at the other party deeply and said nothing.
Originally, like most demon generals, he only knew how to rush and kill, do things based on instinct, and was simple-minded. However, since being given the priesthood by the River God, he has been nourished by divine power, increased wisdom and knowledge, and has a city. .
That’s why he understood the undercurrents in Shuifu, understood the shadows of swords and swords that were not on the surface, and understood that his mission was not easy.
“Hope everything goes well.”
Jiaokou Shrimp's eyelids twitched wildly, having a bad premonition.
However, he and the River God were old acquaintances back then. They had practiced together for three hundred years and were first-class direct descendants. Even if the task was difficult, the River God would give the order and he would come.
On the other hand, the maid in the sedan had her eyes wide open and seemed not to be worried. When she thought about it, Shuifu's righteousness and orthodoxy was in hand, and she had a huge advantage against Black Snake.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiaokou Shrimp opened his eyes suddenly, looked out, and found that the waters were filled with undercurrents, carrying sediment, and extremely cold cold currents surging, hitting the river that emerged from time to time. There was a rattling sound on the bottom stone.
Big and small whirlpools are in the middle of the water, like water monsters opening their huge mouths one after another, waiting to devour people.
"Have you reached the depths of the Huangsha River?"
Jiaokou Xia turned his eyes, stood up, and was about to speak. Suddenly, he heard a sound of iron armor clashing. When he heard the sound, he passed by. I saw a group of demon soldiers treading water out of a small whirlpool.
There were less than twenty demon soldiers in an irregular formation, but each water demon had a cold expression and a murderous look in their eyes.
"A water demon native to the Huangsha River."
Jiaokou Shrimp General took one look at it and judged it. His expression condensed, and he saw the patterns on the opponent's armor, and then slowly spit out One breath.
It is true that they are local water monsters, but they are no longer the enemy.
Thinking of this, Jiaokou Xijiang opened the curtain of the sedan chair, walked a few steps, shouted loudly at the group of demon soldiers, and said: "I am Jiaokou Xijiang, serving the Shuifu River in Luanshiwan. Lord God ordered us to come and see the Black Snake General." Coming out of the vortex, the Black Fish Demon with a fish head on his head stared at the Jiaokou Shrimp General and the neat sailors behind him, as if to identify their identities. .
“Hmph.”
Seeing this group of water monsters still acting like this after hearing the name of the river god, Jiaokou Shrimp General snorted hard and took out a Token, shake it gently.
Suddenly, circles and circles of ripples emerged from the token.
This ripple seems to be tangible and intangible, but it can go down layer by layer, gathering more and more without interruption. Under the color of the water, it is silvery white on the outside and golden red on the inside. Inexplicable sounds spread, and the divine power is huge. There is a kind of order.
Wherever the ripples reach, they affect the surrounding water, giving it a faint red light. Inexplicable power penetrates and spreads, and even the extremely cold water temperature weakens a little.
Although the Luanshiwan Water Palace does not have direct jurisdiction over the Huangsha River, the water from the Huangsha River does flow into the Luanshiwan and is one of the largest streams in the Luanshiwan. The river god in the Luanshiwan Waterfu is His clerical authority naturally has a certain influence on Huangsha River.
“The Order of the River God.”
Even if it was the first time to see the Black Fish Demon, these three words would still appear naturally in the sea of consciousness. His eyes showed fear, envy, and longing, and then he took a deep breath and said: "Follow me."
"Lead the way."
The Jiaokou Shrimp will put away the River God's Order, With a wave of his hand, the marines following the giant turtle turned around silently.
Half an hour later, Jiaokou Shrimp looked at the deep river in front of him. The water was surging, and the strong evil spirit rushed towards his face, making people shiver.
Looking in the direction of the demonic aura, there is a black stone gate tower with a plate pattern standing three to five feet away from the water below, and a hazy light shines from the doorway. Dozens of demon soldiers wearing heavy armor stood in front of the door, lined up on both sides, watching eagerly.
Jiaokou Xijiang's eyes twitched when he saw this. It seems that in the past two months, this black snake general not only killed an astonishing number of demon generals from the Huangsha River, but also subdued an astonishing number of local demons from the Huangsha River. Soldiers.
The demon general who was ordered to come had a pensive look on his face as he stepped through the stone gate and entered the water house.
Compared with the pavilions, gardens, waterside pavilions, and twists and turns of the corridors of the Luanshiwan Water Mansion, the scenery is different at every step. The water mansion that you step into is empty, dark, cold and oppressive. When you walk inside, you can see the eaves of the roof that are about ten feet long. The slabs of stone cover the shadows, and there is a biting coldness covering it from all directions.
"General."
When we arrived at the mansion, a white-scaled snake soldier came out to greet him. He spoke to the general and said, "My lord is waiting for you in the main hall."
< br>
"Waiting in the main hall?"
Hearing this, the maid who came with Jiaokou Xiajiang raised his thin eyebrows, and a look of surprise appeared on his pretty face.
In her opinion, she and Jiaokou Xia will come here with the River God's Order, and they are the imperial envoys holding Shang Fang's sword. Even though the rules in the Shuifu Mansion are not as strict as those in the human world, and there is no requirement to set up an incense table and kneel down to worship, but When you heard that the imperial envoy was coming, you didn't even come out to greet him?
No wonder Lord River God and his wife have been forcing the Water Mansion to establish a perfect system. It is really the water monsters who don’t understand the rules and are too arrogant.
