Chapter 73 Mirror Lake

two days later.

Bad things happen.

Crash!

Heavy rain!

The cold icy rain slapped randomly on his face.

It kept raining.

After half a day, it turned to sleet again, and it didn't stop until the middle of the night.

Arrived the next day.

Big trouble, the road is already muddy, the road condition is worrying.

When people stepped on it, one foot was deep and the other was shallow, and the soles of the feet were covered with mud, which could not be shaken off.

Not to mention the heavy carriage full of grain. The wheels of the cart were sunk into the mud more than three inches deep. The cows and horses were pulling in front, and the people were pushing hard behind them.

The escorting long queue, which was originally slow, became slow like a turtle, almost moving forward a little bit.

Fortunately, this kind of thing is not a sudden situation. The escorts have already experienced countless times. If you walk slowly, you will walk slowly, just walk slowly.

Seeing this situation, Dian Wei's mind was overwhelmed for a while, what concrete road, asphalt road, and viaduct all appeared in his mind.

Then he discovered that he actually didn't know how to build roads at all, and he didn't major in this in his previous life.

To repair cement concrete pavement, you must have cement first, but what about cement? It looks like it was burnt out of limestone and clay, how did it burn?

Everything is unclear!

Suppressing these miscellaneous thoughts, Dian Wei dismounted to help push the cart. He has great strength, and he claims to be able to move mountains, but it's not for nothing.

When encountering a carriage that fell into the pit, more than a dozen escorts couldn't push it with all their strength, and he could move the entire carriage out by himself.

After such a difficult march, everyone suffered for two days, and most of them were so exhausted that they wanted to die.

However, after that, the road is open and unimpeded, and the small goal of walking a hundred miles can be easily achieved every day.

this day.

In the distance, Dian Wei Yinyin heard the sound of gongs and drums. He looked up and saw that there were tall trees on both sides of the road, pines and cypresses, and he couldn't find where it came from.

"Oh, there are people smoking, so it's almost the 'Mirror Lake'."

Old man Zheng pointed to the front and said, "Go a little further, and you should see a fork."

After a while, as expected, there was a fork in the road ahead.

The long escort took a turn.

Suddenly, a huge lake came into view!

The lake water is like a bright mirror, the sky and water are the same color, vast and boundless.

Under the sunshine, the lake water is quiet, bright, emerald green, like a piece of flawless emerald.

When a gust of wind blows, microwaves suddenly appear, causing ripples in circles. At this time, the surface of the lake is like a wrinkled satin. When the sun shines, it sparkles and fills the lake with broken gold.

Old man Zheng said with a smile: "Look, this is Jinghu Lake, a magnificent scene in the world, it is too beautiful to behold."

"The view is really good."

Dian Wei nodded.

at the same time.

The sound of gongs and drums became louder.

Dian Wei took a glance, and happened to see a group of people walking towards a long embankment leading to the lake. These people were dressed in colorful clothes, and they were as lively as dancing masters.

A plank bed was carried in the crowd.

The bed is covered with colorful flowers.

Among the flowers sat two little children, a boy and a girl, naked.

Dian Wei looked puzzled: "What are they doing?"

Old man Zheng was silent, "What else can you do, sacrifice."

Dian Wei raised his eyebrows: "Sacrifice?"

Old man Zheng looked at the vast lake and sighed: "There is a banshee living in this mirror lake. The towns and villages around the mirror lake offer sacrifices to the banshee once a year. The tribute must be a living person. For golden boys and jade girls, at most ten young and strong men or women."

Dian Wei's heart skipped a beat when he heard this: "This kind of disaster, why didn't anyone get rid of her?"

Old man Zheng fell into silence,

After a while, he explained depressedly:

"It can't be said that this banshee is a scourge. The water quality of this mirror lake is fertile and can support millions of people. However, there is a ferocious beast inhabiting the lake, named 'Yasha', which has a strong reproductive capacity. Every once in a while A beast tide is bound to erupt.

The 'Yaksha' can run to the shore and eat everything like a locust. Wherever it passes, no grass will grow, and people and animals will be killed. The harm is endless.

It wasn't until a certain female warrior lost control that she turned into a demon and entered the mirror lake, fed on the Yaksha and became the natural enemy of the Yaksha, and then suppressed the Yaksha, and there was no more harm from the beast tide.

But the banshee has to eat people to maintain her rationality, otherwise, one day, she will become a monster more terrifying and harmful than Yasha.

Therefore, the Shangyang family reached an agreement with the banshee, ordering all people living around Jinghu Lake to sacrifice to the banshee once a year. Over time, a fixed custom has been formed. "

Dian Wei was speechless for a long time.

Old man Zheng pointed to the people who danced the Great God, shook his head and sighed: "Look at those people, singing and dancing, how happy they are, because the Mirror Lake banshee is like a god in their eyes, respectable and awesome. They and the mirror lake girl The demons have been tightly bound together, forming a relationship of mutual dependence, and no one can do without the other."

Dian Wei had nothing to say about this, so what else could he say.

In scientific terms, this is ecological balance, interdependence, and everyone is on this food chain.

At this time, the team of jumping gods walked to the end of the long embankment.

Dian Wei watched helplessly as a group of people beat gongs and drums and pushed the wooden board full of flowers into the lake in the midst of enthusiastic calls.

Pity the two children on the bed, they still don't realize that death is approaching, and they think it's fun to dance there.

The plank bed was a little bit adrift.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes came galloping, and Song Jincheng, who was in charge of the rear, rushed up. He watched the sacrifice scene with great interest, and asked in surprise, "Is this the mirror lake sacrifice? This is the first time someone Song has seen it."

Old man Zheng tilted his head and said, "You have escorted food before, have you ever met?"

Song Jincheng: "No, we were all passing by. How could it be such a coincidence."

Old man Zheng thinks about it too, suddenly!

With a bang, a huge creature burst out of the water.

Dian Wei's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help holding his breath.

I saw a tall figure in the white water waves, the upper body was a naked woman, and the lower body was underwater, which seemed to be a snake-shaped silhouette.

Some parts of this banshee's body, such as the chest, are as smooth as a mirror, while others are covered with a layer of blue scales.

Her hair is like kelp, her eyes are blue, and her facial features are extremely beautiful, which makes people feel amazing.

"Mirror Lake Banshee, this is the first time I've seen her true face." Song Jincheng took a deep breath and lowered his voice.

Old man Zheng was expressionless, with coldness in his eyes.

Dian Wei thought of something, turned his gaze away, and glanced at Old Man Zheng.

Presumably, at this moment, old man Zheng thought of his own child, the child who was eaten by demons. This situation must have mixed feelings in his heart, which is difficult for others to understand.

On the long embankment, when the people of the dancing gods saw the Jinghu Banshee, they all prostrated themselves on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

next moment!

The Mirror Lake Banshee raised her hand and grabbed the wooden bed, pinched the two children who had been frightened, and put it into her mouth like eating candy.

Dian Wei couldn't bear to look directly at him.

The Mirror Lake banshee swallowed the two children, then suddenly looked up to Dianwei's side, and found the long escort.

The next moment, she suddenly swam over.

"This……"

Old man Zheng's expression changed drastically.

Song Jincheng was also taken aback and became nervous.

Seeing this, Dian Wei's first reaction was to grab the reins, wrap his legs around the horse's belly, and prepare to run away.
