In the middle of the night, there was a faint sound of thunder floating in the clouds, and the dark clouds on the horizon kept accumulating and layering, indicating that a thunderstorm was inevitable. Time passed quietly, and in less than two hours, the stunned sky came, and the thunder broke through the sky. The snakes, insects, rats and ants that had been sleeping under the permafrost all winter were about to wake up, and with the sound of thunder falling from the sky, this was also in the Warn these evil spirits not to harm the stability of the world, or they will be instantly smashed into ashes.
At this moment, under the Binjiang Road Bridge, not even a clear figure can be seen in the dark and thick night. The monstrous fire that shed here on New Year's Eve a few days ago is now not even a trace of ashes left, and the soil by the river beach is even more flat. There was no clue at all, because Nian Beast swallowed all those disgusting corpses and even the children of the Riverside Monster in one breath. However, under the wrath of this god, there are still a few incompetent ones. The little thing escaped, and as long as the river monster at the bottom of the river wakes up, these evil creatures who have witnessed the death of their sisters and brothers will pay for it all with blood.
"Mother... Mother..."
The twisted cries echoed on the river, and then seemed to disappear. At the end of the road, there were two workers who had just returned to the construction site after the first month of the first month to watch the night. But suddenly he stopped as if he heard something moving.
"Xiao Wang, what are you doing? Didn't you say you wanted to pee..."
With a foreign accent, the middle-aged man who was unbuttoning his trousers in the dark shouted to his companion with a flashlight. Because they were cold during dinner, they both drank a few more glasses of white wine. Naturally, a belly of water had to find a place to line up, but he shouted a few times, and the other young man standing on the edge of the river just ignored him, and the middle-aged man couldn't help raising his voice. After saying hello again suddenly, the man suddenly turned around and ran towards him.
"Hey, I'm here! What are you urging... Uncle Zhang, did you hear any terrifying movements just now? Why do I sound like a girl is crying?"
Speaking like this, he couldn't help rubbing his stiff arms. Xiao Wang was frightened by the strange movement for a long time and didn't return to his senses. Xiao Wang seemed to have lingering fears. He quickly lowered his voice and asked a question. The middle-aged man who was Uncle Zhang glared at him in horror, then grabbed his arm and rebuked,
"What nonsense! We can't say anything like this in a place like this! Remember what happened at a construction site in Southern Province when I told you! It's just a few stinky boys of your age who can't keep their mouth shut. ! Casually pointing at the unclean mouth of the female body that was just dug up! In the end, it was eaten alive by that thing!"
"Oh my god! Why don't you tell me to say it myself! I really heard it! It's in the middle of the river! I'm not afraid that someone will fall into the river..."
Being scolded by Zhang Zhang, Xiao Wang was also a little unconvinced. He raised his throat and glanced at Binjiang, who seemed to be calm not far away. Seeing this, Zhang Shu covered his mouth and bulged his eyes. cursed,
"The Queen Mother falls into the river and doesn't care about our business!! Let's go! Don't think about it! How could someone fall into the river in the middle of the night—"
Before the words were finished, there was a faint cry in the wind. Xiao Wang and Uncle Zhang looked at each other, but they didn't dare to turn their heads to look at the dark river, but The fear in their hearts surged up, and the two of them were trembling for a while and some dared not make a sound, but at this moment they felt the soil layer under their feet constantly trembling due to some kind of violent vibration, accompanied by A terrifying vibration, a shriek that almost shattered the eardrums also came from the bottom of the riverside next to it.
…
At 11:50 midnight, the whole room was silent. Xiao Nanzhu was lying on the bed and sleeping with his eyes closed. There was no light in the room. Holding a cigarette case and a lighter, the quiet needle in the air seemed to be able to hear movement, and just at this moment, a twisted slender shadow crawled in along the floor.
The scales swept across the floor without leaving a trace of sound, hissing cold sound came from the shadow's mouth constantly, and those red eyes made people panic in the dark, but Xiao Nanzhu, who was in a deep sleep, seemed to be right. Knowing nothing about this, he just breathed steadily as if he was immersed in a beautiful dream, and the evil thing climbed up Xiao Nanzhu's exposed neck along the bedside pillar and slowly wrapped it around him. After getting up, it first let out a sweet and gloomy laughter, and then suddenly opened its fangs to bite Xiao Nanzhu's neck.
Once the poisonous fangs of the poisonous snake bite the flesh, no matter how hard people struggle, they cannot escape. As long as the venom is injected into the blood vessels of the human body, it will kill people in an instant. This poisonous snake will follow Xiao Nanzhu for a day in the daytime, but let it No matter how he looked for opportunities, he couldn't avoid the quite powerful Lantern Festival Calendar God. Now that the Goddess Calendar finally got off work, she naturally wanted to find an opportunity to avenge his miserable brothers and sisters who died. After all, let it be such a food. It is impossible for an evil and grown-up snake evil to kill a god, but it is not a problem to kill a Li Shi who has no divine power. Looking at the behind-the-scenes instigation of all these things in front of him, this red-eyed poisonous snake can no longer Unable to suppress his full hatred for the culprit, he opened his mouth to bite him to death.
It's a pity that the sharp teeth didn't have time to penetrate Xiao Nanzhu's neck. The poisonous snake's own neck was already strangled by a strong and powerful hand, and Xiao Nanzhu, who seemed to have no vigilance, was dying with his eyes closed. After grabbing his seven inches, almost strangling the thick-armed snake to death, he slowly opened his sleepless eyes and said,
"Yo, you still want to hurt someone with an arrow while I'm not prepared? What a shameless snake..."
Speaking in such a cold voice, Xiao Nanzhu yawned and slowly sat up from the bed. During this process, the poisonous snake was held in his hands without any resistance. No matter how he fluttered, he would escape. Out of Xiao Nanzhu's palm, he seemed to feel the struggle of this ghost. Xiao Nanzhu's temper was not good at first, and he immediately became a little more aggressive, and as soon as he felt it, he almost killed himself. With the arrogant force, this poisonous snake no longer dared to arbitrarily provoke this seemingly ordinary man in front of him.
"Kill you... I killed you!!!"
Still not giving up, he shouted again and again, this poisonous snake seemed to be unwilling to give up and failed like this, and kept staring at Xiao Nanzhu with a kind of resentment, but Xiao Nanzhu didn't say anything after seeing this, just a smile. Feixiao looked at this oversighted gadget, then pinched the snake that had wrapped around his arm and looked out the window.
This thing has been with him for a day. Since he sent the old lady named Deng Chunxiu away, he has been sneaking behind him. If this is an ordinary person, he may not be able to find anything, but Xiao Xiao Nan Zhu has been in the army for so many years, and this basic vigilance is still there. After a little attention, he found that there was an evil thing staring at him. He guessed that it was the unfinished event on New Year's Eve and came to seek revenge. But he wanted to find out the real origin of this thing, so he didn't expose it. When the cold and poisonous snake teeth were about to bite his veins, Xiao Nanzhu took advantage of the distance, and this thing didn't Taking precautions, he directly gave it the Fa-rectification on the spot. At this time, he was holding this bowl of poisonous snake with a thick mouth. He took a breath and looked down at his watch, but he frowned impatiently.
"Jing Zhe, don't you fucking oversleep me? Oh hey, it's already eleven fifty-eight, so we agreed to come to work early... Jing Zhe! Jing Zhe! It's twelve o'clock! The moon is drying his ass. ahhhhhh!!"
After shouting a few words in a rough voice, there was no echo in the old yellow calendar. Seeing this, Xiao Nanzhu reluctantly took another cigarette, and then turned to look at the sky outside. As far as the eye can see, the moon and stars are sparse, and the sky is like day. After a while, the first spring thunder will accompany the arrival of the god-monarch Jingzhe, who has changed the solar terms.
Because of the trouble of the river monster under the river, Xiao Nanzhu actually had a connection with this god, but at that time the god of the calendar didn't seem to wake up. He said three words to him. The sentence is dozing, seeing the slender young man curled up in a ball on the calendar paper, always looking like he can't wake up, Xiao Nanzhu, in desperation, can only find some things such as "The Seventy-two Hours of the Moon Order". Judging from ancient books such as "The Collection", he should first understand something about Jingzhe, and then he should clean up the monster hidden under the river as soon as possible, but after he found some information on the Internet, Xiao Nanzhu found it. got some interesting stuff.
First of all, this Lord Jingzhe was actually called Lord Qi Zhe in ancient times. He is the third solar term in the twenty-four solar terms of the lunar calendar. There are two calendar gods in front of Laba Lichun, and he himself marks the beginning of the mid-spring season. . It is said that when the sun is at a certain height to cover the moon, the weather turns warmer, and spring thunder begins. In winter, animals enter a state of sleep and hide in the soil, without food or food, which is called "stinging". In the life of animals, Lord Jingzhe also bears the blame for awakening all things in the world. Unfortunately, there are good things and bad things in this world, and there is light and darkness. On the one hand, Jingzhe awakens the vitality and revives those evil disasters. The awakening of beneficial insects is certainly beneficial to crops. It is beneficial, but the successive appearance of snake and rat pests is also annoying. In addition, in the farming civilization, planters often judge whether to start spring ploughing on the day of Jing Zhe, so in the past, human beings were actually looking forward to the arrival of Jing Zhe. Unfortunately, modern society no longer relies on this traditional sowing method, so this The solar term gods also lost their earliest enthusiasm for work and became more and more lazy. Later, like amphibians, they hibernated as soon as they entered the winter.
There are only these allusions about Jingzhe for the time being, and more things seem to be waiting for the monarch to tell him in person. However, Xiao Nanzhu checked something different about the riverside monster, and this seemed to be the root cause of whether he could help Zhang Chi resolve this disaster.
There are many stories about snakes in Chinese folklore. For example, Bai Niangniang's story is about a thousand-year-old snake demon who cultivated and transformed into an adult. The slightly uncommon ones are mentioned in Liaozhai Zhiyi written by Mr. Pu Songling. The green snake woman, the former is said to be taking the orthodox path of cultivating immortals. Xiao Nanzhu is not familiar with this point, so she did not do more research. However, this green snake woman and this riverside monster seem to have some invisibility. sub-association.
The Green Snake Woman is about a group of women born in an area called Yinshan in the past. They looked like humans, but soon after marrying into an ordinary family, they brought news of their husband's death. People who lived around didn't pay attention at first. The difference between them, but one day a warlock grabbed such a strange woman with his own hands, and seeing that her face was triangular and her eyes were blind, when she opened the corner of her skirt, she found the woman's lower body. It was actually a snake-like bite, and after a closer look, others knew that these women were all green snake women born from evil things and human beings. Anyone who had sex with them would die quickly, and those who The bodies of the dead men were all brought back to a large lake at the bottom of the Yin Mountain by the offspring of these snakes for the snake mother to transform into a dragon.
This story is also a hundred years old. Although it is a strange story, the description in it is somewhat similar to the situation Xiao Nanzhu is encountering today. It is really like what he said on New Year's Eve. The snake mother is huge and feeds on cannibals. Her sons and daughters are more similar to the mother of the green snake and snake. Since New Year's Eve killed so many of her sons, daughters, grandchildren, the behemoth that may have turned into a dragon will definitely not let them go. After all, snakes This kind of thing seems cold-blooded, but in fact, she has vengeance and revenge. Bai Niangniang will be flooded with water without Xu Xian, and the snake mother who has lost her son and her grandchildren may shed blood on the river. Thinking of this, she lowered her eyes subconsciously. After calming down, Xiao Nanzhu lowered his head thoughtfully with a cigarette in his mouth. The hands of the clock were just about to be choked to twelve o'clock. Unfortunately, he didn't wait until it was time to wake up Jing Zhe. The cell phone that wasn't fully charged rang, and as soon as he picked it up, he heard Zhang Chi yelling at the other end,
"My mother, Li Shi!! Come and show me!! Two workers vigil and met a monster!! One was stunned and the other called the police! Now I'm going to the construction site! I heard it was the city police. The bureau is here!! What should I do!! Ah!!!!”
