Chapter 2
Chapter 2 Friends come from far away
There is no day at the bottom of the river, there is no difference between day and night, and no difference between seasons.
But there are many ways to time the clock. There is a Xiangyang Spiritual Palm growing in the east of Qixia Cave. The palms bloom by themselves at sunrise and gather at sunset.
There is a pit in the south, where strange wind blows out on time every three days, forming a turbulent water vortex, which will dissipate after stirring for half an hour.
The easiest way to time time is the Red Flower Mountain in the west. The mountain flashes red on time every other month, and it looks like a big red flower from a distance, which can be seen more than a dozen miles away from the water.
Life in the water is desolate and lonely, and time passes very fast, as if a month is about to pass in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Yuan He did not find a shrimp demon returning.
He decided to show up and contact the demon pawns who stayed behind in the Qixia Cave.
This little **** performed his duty loyally, patrolling the enemy’s situation in circles along the waters outside Qixia Cave, without a day of slacking and laziness.
But his abilities were inadequate, and Yuan He had been lurking under his nose for a month, and he hadn’t even noticed it at all.
“There are three more days, which is a one-month deadline, why didn’t the ancestor return? He once said that he should let me take over as the master of the cave. Could it be that he had predicted that this battle would die outside the river?
On this day, the little **** again swam to the waters of Dongxi. When he was talking to himself, he suddenly saw the ripples nearby. He was immediately alert: “Who!”
With a loud shout, he rolled the demon wind, the double pliers flushed rapidly, and turned into two golden pliers knives. This is the natural magic of the golden pliers shrimp clan. The knives dance in the water more powerfully, carrying the waves and the waves, as fast as lightning. .
The river was tumbling, Yuan He stepped out of a water gate, and said, “I am a traveler, and there is no malice. Don’t be nervous.”
He is an ape body, and his silhouette is no doubt a human being. The little **** thought it was an invasion by foreigners and thieves, and almost fell to the ground in fright. Even though the shrimp tribe had eight legs, but they were thin and soft, he couldn’t stand firmly at the moment. : “Tai! Where did the thieves dare to invade my home!”
Even though he was afraid, the little **** still showed the spirit of acting as a cave master: “Dare to take a step forward, and I will smash you with a single knife!”
“I am not a human being.” Yuan He trembled when he heard his voice, swaying from side to side, unable to raise the slightest interest in bullying him: “Look carefully, I have scales and horns, and my tail and hair. I am a pure blood. Shui Clan, you and I are both folks of Qingli Changhe, and the thieves are our common enemies.”
Yuan Heyu was warm, with a three-point smile, and said: “Friend shrimp, did you scare you? So, I sit down, you take the knife and sit down, let’s have a long talk and exchange ideas. Wouldn’t it be better to have a life experience?” Sit first after speaking.
“Joke! I’m brave, will be scared by the thieves in your area?” The little pawn’s shrimp mouth is very hard: “My name is Xia Chongwen, who is’Xia Friend’, you admit the wrong demon? Let me talk about me. I haven’t been able to open the spirit for a lifetime, I don’t know much, and my demon power is also superficial. I don’t have much experience with you to talk about!”
“I didn’t admit my mistake.’Friend’ is a kind of affectionate name, not someone’s name.” Yuan He patiently explained: “The so-called friends come from afar, it’s a pleasure to have like-minded friends come to you to play happily, this is worthy of you. What a pleasure!”
Xia Chongwen was instantly messed up. He didn’t understand these words very well. He just said, “But I can’t be happy!”
I thought I was suffocating on patrol for a month, but I wanted to play, but I was almost scared to death by you, a thief. How can I play with you happily?
Yuan He saw him communicate smoothly, different from ordinary low-intellectual spirits. He must have had the experience of being enlightened every day. He continued to show kindness and asked with a smile: “Your name is Xia Chongwen? This name is lonely as snow, I just hear it. I know you are a benevolent warrior! Xia friend, does the word’Chongwen’ mean to uphold the rites of the human world?”
“My heart is Wenli, and I am also a benevolent demon. This is not fake, but I am not lonely.” Xia Chongwen answered his question, unknowingly aroused the interest in communication, while still murmuring, what is snow? Why is loneliness like snow?
He has lived in the water since he was a child, never traveled far away, or even surfaced in the river. All the knowledge he knew came from the precepts and deeds of the master of the cave, Xia Zhong, but Xia Zhong was not an educated person, and the time to teach him was also not long.
However, he has always been eager to learn. Hearing Yuan He’s words, he seemed to have a lot of knowledge, he had the idea of asking for advice, but his ancestor Zhong Zhong has repeatedly taught him,’You must have the heart to harm others, and the heart against demons is indispensable.’ Now that the enemy and the friend are not divided, he can’t get rid of it, so he dare not show his favor.
He continued to introduce himself: “The name Chongwen was taken by my ancestors, and he also asked me to respect the prime minister of the water mosquito family! Thinking back then, when my Golden Crow Demon Nation was founded, the landlord commented on the ancestry of thousands of aquatic people and established nine On the Water Demon List, my Golden Claw Shrimp clan has poor roots and feet. I was rated as the lower middle class and only second from the bottom.”
“The penultimate is already pretty good, at least it’s in the product.” Yuan He listened with gusto. He seemed to be interested in these allusions of the monster race:
“The bloodline of the monster race is stained with’gold’. Basically, it is more expensive. It should be better than the mosquitoes. You said that the prime minister of the Jinwu nation is the water mosquito race. Is the bloodline of this race well-known?”
“It’s very famous.” Xia Chongwen lowered his double knives, and he felt impolite to speak while holding the knives.
He said truthfully: “According to my ancestors, the mosquitoes are the most numerous in the world, on land, in the water, and birds. They all have their presence. But since ancient times, they have been the lowest bugs in the demon world because they rely on parasitism. When they multiply, foreigners don’t want to see them. The other demonic kingdoms of Qingli Changhe rank their bloodlines as low-grade, but our Golden Crow country ranks them as the top-middle-grade, second only to the royal family, and second.”
Yuan He thoughtfully: “I guess the mosquitoes in Jinwu not only become prime ministers, but may also be married to the royal family. Therefore, the blood of the whole family can rise from the bottom to the second.”
“Yes, yes! You guessed it again.” Xia Chongwen said more and more vigorously: “The prime minister has four children who have become princes, and my ancestors hope that I will follow the mosquito clan as an example and become a noble demon in the future. In order to enhance the blood status of my Golden Claw Shrimp Clan, this is called a demon, the child ascends to heaven!”
Demon, the one who cultivates is also the Tao and the one who seeks longevity, which is in the same line with the Taoist school of the human world.
“Then what kind of product is my clan in Jinwu Country?” Yuan He was very curious about this: “Friend Xia, I came from the Iron Wing Nation in the west. The king of that demon kingdom is cruel and unrelenting, except for the crocodile clan. All other ethnic groups are food for flesh and blood, and even slaves are not allowed to do it. No matter where I go, crocodiles will pounce on me and bite me.
You Jinwu have a state-of-the-art, official, cultural, and honest customs, a simple and honest customs, and a tasteful life. This is simply a model of a civilized society. Even if my family’s pedigree is the last one, I am prepared to stay. Settle here and no longer wander around. ”
I don’t know which sentence it was. He scratched Xia Chongwen’s itch. He folded his shrimp legs and lay on the ground. They talked very happily: “I’m telling you, I seal the Qixia Cave on the border of Jinwu Country. Next to the Black Mountain Water Mansion of the Iron Wing Nation, the crocodiles there are more ferocious than the human thieves, and they often invade and looting. They have big mouths. They can swallow dozens of my children in one bite, but I can’t save them! My friend, yours Has the child been eaten by a crocodile?”
“Me? I’m not an ovum, so I can’t give birth to children casually.” Yuan He smiled playfully, “My friend, don’t you know my roots and feet?”
