Chapter 288: Hou Tu Niangniang, the mysterious figure falling into the river
A new green sprout broke through the soil with a crackling sound.
After seeing it sprout, Su Mu was also stunned. Could it be that this is actually a seed?
Su Mu continued to water the river, but the green shoots did not continue to grow.
He didn't take care of it anymore and just waited to see how it grew.
Sitting cross-legged, Su Mu began to meditate and practice. Patrolling during the day and practicing at night, this has become the norm in Su Mu's life.
As he sat there, for some reason, his eyelids suddenly felt heavy and he felt sleepy. Su Mu slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
In his sleep, in a daze, he seemed to see the green bud in front of him growing rapidly, and soon it became a big tree with luxuriant branches and leaves, and a little fairy light.
The next second, the big tree began to shrink again and turned into a human figure.
Su Mu stared at the figure, but found that no matter how he looked at him, he could not see the figure's face clearly.
Suddenly, the figure knelt down towards Su Mu.
Finally, he slowly walked to the river bank, walked into the river, walked into the water step by step, until the water completely submerged his head and finally disappeared in the river.
Su Mu suddenly opened his eyes and found that it was already dawn.
call--
He breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that it was just a dream.
When he looked carefully, he found a small hole on the ground in front of him. The green sprouts he planted yesterday were gone!
Su Mu stood up suddenly, came to the side of the pit, and found that it was indeed gone.
He thought of the dream he had last night again. Could it be that it was not a dream?
The green sprout grew into a big tree, then turned into a person, and finally walked into the river and disappeared? ? ?
What kind of wonderful treasure is this? ?
Su Mu walked to the river bank, looked at the place where the figure disappeared, and used his spiritual sense to find that he could no longer detect any breath.
In order to search, Su Mu called all the killer whales and mobilized his own brothers to search far and wide along the river, but could not find any trace.
Su Mu was inexplicably angry. He spent a lot of time and effort but got nothing in return, and now the person ran away?
Su Mu was really angry. He gave away three ginseng fruits in exchange for a treasure, but it actually grew legs and ran away? ?
Anyone would be angry about this, right?
At the same time, on a tributary of the long river of time, in a small courtyard.
Lao Shi was lying leisurely on the grandpa chair, enjoying the breeze, drinking some wine and humming a little tune.
There was also a small pot next to it, in which some pickles and pieces of white and tender tofu were cooked.
"Eat pickles and roll tofu~~~"
The task given to him by his superiors was to repair all the eleven stone bridges he was responsible for within twenty years.
Because of the help of that senior, he completed the task twenty years ahead of schedule, but he was not in a hurry to report it to the underworld. With the remaining time, he could enjoy a rest and take some time off.
He has worked in the underworld for so many years and knows the nature of those big leaders too well. If he completes the task ahead of schedule, they will at most give him a verbal praise, and then immediately assign him a new task and treat him like a beast of burden.
There is a saying that goes, an employee who doesn’t slack off is not a good employee!
The door of the courtyard was knocked open.
Lao Shi frowned and cursed in a low voice: "Md, who's here?"
After seeing a middle-aged majestic man in a purple and black robe, Lao Shi immediately stood up and walked towards him in small steps.
"Master Sandi, what brings you here?"
Old Ten smiled, revealing his neat, big black teeth.
Seeing the Tenth Old Man leisurely eating, the majestic man snorted coldly and said, "Lord Chakravartin, you are enjoying yourself! You are living a better life than me."
Hearing this sarcastic remark, Lao Shi also smiled awkwardly and said, "I just got some free time."
"Master Sandi, please take a seat."
Lao Shi said with a smile.
After the majestic man sat down, he asked seriously, "The queen came to you. Did she say anything to you?"
Hearing this, Old Eleven was stunned, with a puzzled look on his face: "Has the Queen been to my place? No, I have never seen the Queen."
"Master Sandi is such a joke. How could the queen come to me? What virtue and ability do I have?"
"Do you think I'm kidding you?"
"If I didn't have accurate information, would I come?"
The dignified man said in an aggressive tone: "Tell me the truth, have you made any big mistake? Even the queen was alarmed."
Hearing this, Lao Shi felt a little uneasy. After all, the Three-Life Master Fruit was taken away from him by his senior. How could this not be considered a huge loss?
Lao Shi swallowed, stretched out a trembling finger, and pointed at the treetops above.
The majestic man looked in the direction where Lao Shi pointed and found something incredible. He stood up suddenly and asked in disbelief, "Where is the main fruit?!"
"It was picked away by someone." Lao Shi also answered stutteringly.
Hearing this, the majestic man was stunned, his entire face turned red: "By whom??!"
"The senior who guards the river." Lao Shi also spread his hands and answered truthfully.
After hearing this answer, the majestic man fell silent, as if only the legendary man who guarded the long river of time had the ability to pick the Three Lives Fruit.
"Don't you know how to stop it?" the majestic man asked.
ah?
Lao Shi pointed at himself: "Me?"
He was also laughed at by his leader. Can I stop him?
This is just like the Nine-Headed Insect asked Benboba to get rid of Tang Monk and his disciples.
Is that something I can do???
The dignified man closed his eyes, took a long breath and said, "I should have a general idea of what happened."
"The queen came here, probably because of this matter. We don't need to care about this matter. The queen should have her own way to deal with it."
"My Lord Sandi and I have the same idea." The Tenth Old Man replied with a smile.
"I see you're so relaxed."
"How's the bridge going?"
The dignified man picked up the tea on the table, took a sip and said.
"Return to my lord."
“All repaired.”
The leaders are already present at the scene, and we can no longer hide it.
Hey, my days of slacking off are about to end before they even begin?
Hearing this answer, the majestic man spat out a mouthful of tea: "What did you say??"
"It was thanks to the help of the senior who guards the river that we were able to complete the repair so quickly." Lao Shi replied.
"I see." The majestic man murmured, "You kid, you actually got that senior to help you. What reward did you give him?"
"That senior, it's impossible that he helped you for nothing, right?"
