Chapter 233 River God, are you still in need of a wife?



"Congratulations."

Yuan Tianhong said this and handed the certificate in his hand to Luo Zheyu.

"From now on, you will be listed on the third team."

"Thank you." Luo Zheyu took it.

"Although you passed, I still have something to tell you."

Yuan Tianhong rubbed his solar plexus.

"Next time you go on a mission, report the situation first, don't just rush forward by yourself, okay?"

"Understood."

Luo Zheyu nodded.

Zhang Ya came over from behind with several cups of milk tea in his hands. He took out one and handed it to Luo Zheyu.

"Are you free this Saturday?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"The follow-up of the mission will be completed by Friday. I want to go to the Demon Spirit Learning Institute on Saturday. I want to ask if you want to go."

"Nine years of compulsory education?" Luo Zheyu raised his eyebrows.

"right."

Zhang Ya smiled and distributed the extra milk tea to others, and Yuan Tianhong was also given a cup.

"Go." Luo Zheyu nodded.

"I want to go too, take me with you!"

Han Bing raised his hand while sipping his milk tea.

"Aren't you going to accompany your girlfriend?" Zhang Ya asked with a smile.

"She went out traveling with her parents and didn't take me..." Han Bing's face suddenly became bitter.

"When do you plan to meet her parents?"

"Oh, I don't know. I haven't decided what I should tell her parents about my job..."

"It's hard to say...but there is a unit that has a vacancy for a temporary position..."

"Brother Zhang! Grandpa Zhang! You have to help me. My lifelong happiness depends on you. Woo woo woo..."

Watching them chatting, Luo Zheyu waved his hand, indicating that he wanted to leave first.

The affairs in the town were basically dealt with. After the stone tablet was taken out, the illusion was shattered and the journey was smooth. The stone tablet was sent for inspection and testing, but the analysis report, including the few lines of words engraved on the stone tablet, could not be obtained in a short time.

The cat demon, three crows, spider, mobile phone spirit, beauty snake, big rooster and so on that were cleared out of the town were all sent to receive free nine-year compulsory education. The next time we see them, they may look different.

Blind girl Lu Xiyue was supposed to be taken away to test her abilities, but as soon as she left, Zhu Zhu became irritable and disobedient, showing aggressive intentions, so she could only go with him to the place where she received her nine-year compulsory education.

For cult members found in the town, ordinary people are sent to the Public Security Bureau, while those with special abilities are taken to special places for interrogation.

The last thing was the strange tree. Team three led their team to surround the tree and temporarily built sheds around it to prevent ordinary people from accidentally entering and to stop the "little ghosts" transformed from the fruits from running around.

As soon as I left the Universal Building, I received a call from the supervisor.

"…I am in charge of Du Xiang'er, but she doesn't like studying very much, and the teachers at the Demon Spirit Academy can't control her, so I would like to ask when you are free to come over."

"Don't like studying?"

Luo Zheyu was completely confused. What did the fact that Du Xianger, this old ghost, didn't like to study have to do with him?

"Yes, I asked the captain of the second team, and he told me to find you."

"What do you want me for?"

"The main thing is to discipline Du Xiang'er, so that she can study hard and do things according to the rules. When are you free to come over, we can discuss it in detail."

"Okay, I'm going there on Saturday."

"Thank you very much, bye."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Zheyu looked up at the blue sky above his head.

The wind is light and the sky is clear.

As peaceful as usual.

The world in my eyes has changed dramatically.

If he was still the same person as before, he would probably never be able to encounter these things. Even after the revival of spiritual energy, strange things happened frequently in various places, but after all, they have not interfered with the lives of most ordinary people. There are always people willing to eliminate these threats and protect the peace in people's eyes.

After returning home, Luo Zheyu found the brown bear hidden in the corner of the living room.

"Thanks a lot."

The latter has been at home these days to "keep the house safe".

The brown bear's eyes twinkled in response.

"Other demons are studying, shouldn't we send you to study as well?"

Luo Zheyu murmured softly.

Upon hearing this, the brown bear suddenly "came to life". It shook its head repeatedly and took two steps back, away from Luo Zheyu.

The internship was completed and the certificate was obtained. That night, Luo Zheyu no longer suppressed his ability to travel through time in his dreams. When he fell into a deep sleep and entered his dream, his soul was drawn to an unknown place.

Gurgle…Gurgle…

A series of bubbles came out of his mouth and flew upwards.

The water flows gently, caressing you softly and delicately.

The sun was shining in the sky, but was blocked by the thick layer of water, casting only a little light. Fish swam leisurely by, long water plants stretched out their leaves, and unknown small creatures occasionally passed by.

"There is so much spiritual energy here! If I stay here for a thousand years, I will definitely be able to repair it perfectly... My Lord, you... Eh?"

"My Lord...Are You My Lord?"

The Manifold Mirror asked tentatively.

"Only natural creatures dream. Could it be that I have mutated and started dreaming as well? How could my Lord become... become..."

"A fish."

Luo Zheyu replied in his mind.

"Yes, fish, how can a human turn into a fish? Fish can turn into humans, but humans cannot turn into fish. How can this be possible...ah! Could it be..."

For the first time, Wanmianjing experienced what it was like to have his three views shattered. He muttered in disbelief, refusing to believe the reality.

"My Lord, were you captured by humans for experiments, and that's why you turned into a fish? But when were you the subject of the experiment?"

"Don't think about it, let's go up and take a look."

He shook his head slightly and looked at his golden-red fish tail in the water.

It seems to be a red carp, without any spiritual power and not yet a spirit. It cannot find a suitable reference and its size is unknown.

The fish's tail swayed slightly and the golden-red carp swam briskly towards the water surface.

As we were approaching the shore, we heard voices coming from a certain direction.

There were quite a few of them, shouting the same words in a fairly uniform manner.

He swung his tail in the water, changed direction, and swam towards where there were people, causing the sound of rippling water, but there were only shallow ripples on the surface of the water.

As they got closer, Luo Zheyu gradually heard their shouts clearly.

I can hear it clearly but I can't understand it. It's all in dialect.

However, I could feel the solemnity and a hint of piety in the other person's voice.

It's time to use the kaleidoscope.

When he was in the magical world, he showed a talent for translation. He was able to capture the mental fluctuations around the other party and translate them into words.

"My Lord, I can't hear you clearly. Come closer."

Wanmianjing said with a guilty conscience.

Although the Thousand Face Mirror is a magic weapon, it belongs to the level of divine weapon, but don't forget that it is now quite bad, and it is good enough to keep the spirit of the weapon awake! Can you blame a seriously injured spirit for poor hearing?

No way!

"...Um...I still can't hear you clearly. Come closer..."

As they got closer, Luo Zheyu no longer looked at the group of people on the shore as small black sesame seeds.

Among them were men and women, wearing coarse cloth shorts, with long hair tied behind their heads, and some wearing straw sandals or cloth shoes, but more of them wore straw sandals. The men had a slightly darker complexion, while there were fewer women, and the elderly accounted for a larger proportion. Among them was a bride wearing a bright red long skirt, red embroidered shoes with mandarin ducks on her feet, and a red veil on her head. She was surrounded by several middle-aged and elderly women.

There was a table on the ground, with bowls, plates, wine jars, incense and candles on it. In the bowls and plates were the heads of whole killed chickens, ducks, pigs and cows.

Several people whose genders could not be identified because they were dressed too flashy were stamping their feet, clapping their hands, shaking their bodies, looking up at the sky, and dancing an unknown and rough dance beside the table.

There were people playing musical instruments nearby, not elaborately, focusing only on the rhythm, expressing a boiling and mysterious feeling.

Not far away, there was a brightly colored boat on the ground. The bottom of the boat was padded with wooden boards. Although the hull was exquisite and gorgeous, it could only accommodate one person. Several middle-aged and elderly women helped the bride board the boat.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang-bang-bang!

The drum beats became more and more frequent, and the sound of suona rang out at this time, pushing the atmosphere to a higher level.

The strange thing is that the music played by the suona is the joy of a wedding.

Suddenly someone called out loudly, pointed at the water with a shocked tone, and shouted repeatedly.

The voices and actions of the people around stopped, and they looked in the direction that person was pointing.

Suddenly, the people on the shore became shorter, and they fell to their knees, calling out something devoutly.

Before they knelt down, their sight was near Luo Zheyu.

He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Hear it carefully!" the Thousand-Faced Mirror shouted in my mind.

"What they said was: Look, what is that! That must be the river god. The river god has appeared. Please bless me... Huh?"

"Isn't this the place these humans are pointing to? When did my Lord become a river god?"

Luo Zheyu was also puzzled, and thinking that he had been discovered, he swam closer, and only stopped when the water level became shallow and his body could not pass through.

This place is quite close to those humans, and Luo Zheyu finally understood why he was called the River God.

I didn't notice it when I was far away from the crowd before, but now that I'm closer, I find that although the red carp has not yet become a spirit, it is huge in size. Its body is at least three meters long, and including the tail, it is a huge creature.

Those people had never seen such a big red carp before. When they saw a huge shadow emerging from the river and hiding under the water, they believed it was the appearance of the river god.

The people on the shore knelt down and bowed several times, then began to chant loudly, with their voices rising and falling in unison.

Those who were playing drums and suona also continued to play their instruments.

After waiting for a long time, the Thousand-faced Mirror still didn't translate.

Luo Zheyu had to ask: "What are they singing?"

“…My Lord, they are singing.”

"Lyrics?" Luo Zheyu certainly knew what those people were singing.

"Maybe they are so familiar with the song, their emotions are very stable when they sing, so I can't understand them either."

After a pause, Wanmianjing defended himself again: "...It must be a random word, without any meaning!"

At this time, the people on the shore took action again.

Four strong men came out and came to the front of the boat where the bride was sitting. They pulled up four ropes connected to the wooden boards under the hull in front, put pressure on their shoulders, and dragged it towards the direction of the river with force.

The plank was dragged forward and the boat on it also moved forward, including the bride sitting on the boat.

The bride, with a red veil on her head, sat quietly, with a handkerchief tightly clenched in her palm, which was torn out of shape.

A few drops of water rolled down from the red veil, fell on the back of the hand, and were quickly wiped away by slender fingers.

The drumbeats gradually died down, the suona became louder, and the gongs began to sound.

Joy is on this shore, playing loud and cheerfully to the river.

The people on the shore bowed to the red carp and started dancing a strange dance again. While dancing, they looked at the red carp from time to time, as if they wanted to see if he was satisfied.

The Manifold Mirror failed again at the critical moment. Luo Zheyu didn't quite understand what they meant, but based on the current situation, he had some vague guesses.
