Chapter 240 River God, are you still in need of a wife?



"Unlike her, I am not from the village."

"I live by the river, Pingshui River."

Luo Zheyu remained calm, looking like a cold, arrogant, and fierce young man.

Appearance also has a great influence on temperament.

The guard frowned, feeling very troubled.

He really didn't want to offend such a person, but the other party refused to tell the truth. He had already found out everything, so he couldn't just let him go.

"You said you live by the river, but how can you live by the river? Pingshui River is not a small ditch."

"We just moved to the river a few days ago, so the impact is not big. My family and I used to live upstream of the river, and that place is no longer called Pingshui River. But because we move so often, I can't be sure where exactly we moved."

"Why do we move so often?" the guard wondered.

In this day and age, moving is no small matter, and it is not something you do just for fun.

"The family lives on water and depends on the weather to survive. They need to follow the flow of water and find a suitable place. They like warmth, so they move to a warm and suitable place."

Luo Zheyu spoke the truth in a serious manner, and Mi Xin was stunned watching from the side.

He is right.

I turned into a carp just a few days ago, and when I woke up I was in Pingshui River.

The water flow in a flowing river is not slow, so carp will of course swim down from upstream, and occasionally stay in places where the water flow is slower and food is abundant.

The guard said he didn't quite understand and wanted to ask what Luo Zheyu's family did, but was rejected and he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

He switched to another question.

"What's your name, and what are you doing in Beicheng?"

At the same time, not far from here.

Among the mountains and forests.

"Gee... gee... ah..."

A man was riding a tall brown horse on a path that was barely paved with dirt. He saw a pile of huge rocks blocking the road ahead and had to rein in his horse and stop.

The man on horseback was tall and wore a dark blue sleeveless coat with a white robe underneath, with the sleeves sticking out.

His black hair was tied up, with only two strands hanging on the sides of his face. It was neatly groomed without any messy hair.

With sharp eyebrows, starry eyes and a nose like a hanging gallbladder, he looked at the pile of rubble with a hint of distress in his eyes.

There was a pile of rubble ahead, and bushes and trees on both sides, blocking the way. It was impossible to get through or around.

The only way is to go back and choose another way.

But the man in blue obviously didn't want to do that. He rode his horse on this path for most of the day. If he wanted to return, it would take another half a day.

He jumped off his horse and took out a compass from the bag on his back and looked at it carefully.

The direction is correct, Bicheng is right in front of us. We can get there by walking straight, but we just need to cross the pile of rubble.

After putting the compass away, he turned around and patted the horse's mane. The brown horse opened its big eyes, blinking its long and thick eyelashes, looking at him innocently.

I only heard the man say:

"Xiaohong, don't be afraid."

The brown horse snorted, and during the brief rest, lowered its head to chew some grass.

The man squatted down, with half of his body slanted under the horse's belly, and grabbed upwards with both hands.

He stood up carrying the brown horse.

The brown horse was frightened and screamed, struggling like a pig to be slaughtered, kicking its limbs and even trying to lower its head to bite the man.

"Do not move."

The man patted the horse's belly, alternating his legs and running forward. Carrying an adult horse did not affect his movements at all. He tapped the rocks with his toes, jumped up and down, and rushed forward in a few breaths.

However, after the rocks, the vaguely visible path completely disappeared, the ground was overgrown with weeds, shrubs were piled up in clusters, trees were planted left and right, and there was a row of crooked trees in front. It was impossible for horses to run in such a place. If you were not careful, you would trip over the horses' hooves and fall off.

He had no choice but to carry the horse and keep running forward.

Not to mention, its speed is actually one point faster than that of the brown horse.

The brown horse gradually calmed down.

It had a good relationship with the man and had been with him for several years, and it was able to suppress its fear and trust him.

This is the first time that a human has ridden on a brown horse.

It could also be the last time.

It doesn’t feel good at all and it can leave a psychological scar.

The man in blue also felt that this was not going to work. Fortunately, according to the compass, the city was only a thousand meters away. At his speed, he would reach the destination in at most another half a quarter of an hour.

He avoided bushes and muddy pits, and as he was running through the woods, he suddenly felt something unusual.

He looked up suddenly.

"Such a strong demonic aura!"

The location of the evil spirit is exactly the direction we are heading towards, Bicheng.

I'm afraid he's not an easy character to deal with.

With a frown on his face, the man quickened his pace as he carried his horse, raising a cloud of dust and broken leaves behind him.

The brown horse neighed and couldn't hold back any longer. It struggled frantically, but to no avail. It was so scared that it almost shed tears.

In front of the city gate.

The guard carefully questioned Luo Zheyu, and finally, after he convinced them that he was "telling the truth, had solid evidence, was not easy to understand, and didn't look like a liar," he believed that he was not suspicious and let the two men and the monkey enter the city.

"Thank you, brother!"

Mi Xin stepped into the city gate and waved to the guards with a smile.

She was in a very good mood.

She had never been out of the village and couldn't wait to go to the city to see the world.

Boom boom boom…

A faint roar came from the forest not far away, and she couldn't help but stop and look back.

A group of strange-shaped creatures rushed out of the woods.

The dust flew up, covering the other person's figure.

The guards drew their swords, and the common people were so scared that they huddled together and watched vigilantly.

"Wait a moment!"

A young man's shout came from the direction of the strange-shaped creature.

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, revealing a tall man carrying a brown horse.

"Don't let him into town!"

The man gathered his energy and shouted loudly, his voice urgent.

"He's a demon!"
