Chapter 121: Quicksand Is Hard to Cross, Three Thousand Weak Waters
And look for the scenery in the mountains and rivers, there is no place in the world to enjoy Qingming.
The tin stick is lighter than the horse, and the sky and the earth are vast for me to walk.
In just one day, summer passed through autumn, some cicadas chirped and the willows were broken, and the fire flowed westward.
Shi Gandang climbed over the mountains and ridges, and every step he took was more than ten feet away.
Chen Ye crossed his legs and closed his eyes, his ears were not clear.
As he got closer and closer to Liusha River, all kinds of noises could be heard.
In just one day, Chen Ye heard thousands of obsessions.
The sound was getting louder and louder, which made him upset.
If he had not practiced the Heart Sutra, I am afraid that Chen Bao would have developed demonic obstacles at this time.
"Quah! Lord Buddha, there's a flood ahead!"
The toad spirit stood on Shi Gandang's shoulder, holding the awning with his hands, looking forward and shouting.
When Chen Yi heard this, he opened his eyes and saw the scene in front of him.
The turbid and dark yellow Liusha River is turbulent.
"Rumble--"
"Crash-"
Thousands of feet of huge waves washed away everything around them.
The smaller peaks were submerged by the Liusha River, and the rise was extremely terrifying, almost changing at every breath.
Just at this moment, Chen Hao raised his head and saw several wild geese flying overhead.
The wild geese are flying high, trying to cross the Liusha River!
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the sky, he fell down!
The wild geese sank into the Liusha River, and the rushing water instantly submerged them, leaving their feathers unable to float.
"What a vicious river..."
Chen Ye's eyes were focused, and when he took a closer look, he saw a stone tablet, which was not submerged at this time.
I saw three seal characters on it, engraved with Liusha River.
There is a small four-line true word cloud on the abdomen:
Eight hundred quicksand realms, three thousand weak water depths.
Goose feathers cannot float, and reed flowers sink to the bottom.
"I'm afraid it's difficult to cross this river..."
Shi Gandang said angrily, let alone three thousand weak water. With its body like this, ordinary rivers would have to sink to the bottom.
Fortunately, although it can't fly, it is not afraid of water intrusion. I think this quicksand river shouldn't be a problem for it, so it can just step over it.
Chen Yi, wearing a brocade cassock, is also not afraid of water, not to mention the toad spirit, who is just playing with the mud in the well water.
If this Liusha River only has this ability, then that's it.
But obviously, Liusha River is not that simple...
The waves surged, bringing with them bursts of murmurs, which made people uneasy.
When Chen Yu was thinking about how to cross the Liusha River, he suddenly saw something moving on the bank of the river.
His eyes glowed with glass and he looked away.
I saw a few red-skinned ghosts with long hands and bowed waists running away hastily on the banks of the quicksand river that was constantly overflowing.
They looked frightened, using their hands and feet together, and looked extremely embarrassed.
With his clairvoyant eyes, Chen Hao instantly discerned the red-skinned ghost's heel and legs... the Taosha ghost!
The flowing water washes out the sand without pausing, and before the previous wave is extinguished, the next wave arises.
After death, ghosts roam the sand, making passers-by scream out in fright.
"Um?"
Chen Ye let out a light sigh and saw something behind these sand-floating ghosts, chasing them with the big waves.
He took a closer look and saw several monsters that looked bulging and with water stains oozing from their mouths and noses.
His clairvoyance can see through all disguises.
Chen Ye easily saw that these demons seemed to be still alive, but in fact they were dead with only a skin left.
Under their skins, there are masses of flowing river water, which look very evil and scary.
Chen Yi just needed a guide to let him know about the situation here.
Seeing that those wandering ghosts were about to be overtaken by those demons, he moved and immediately disappeared above Shi Gandang's head.
"Qua! Buddha..."
The Toad Spirit didn't see the Taosha Ghost until this moment.
It was about to tell Lord Buddha the news, but when it turned around, it saw nothing.
"ah--"
Unfortunately, a Taosha ghost fell to the ground, and was immediately caught by the demon and dragged into the quicksand river.
The whole process went smoothly, and there wasn't even a big wave.
This situation scared the few remaining Taosha ghosts to the point where they lost their souls.
In panic, each of their hands and feet lost control, and their speed became slower and slower.
At this critical moment!
The nine-ring tin staff fell from the sky!
"Boom!"
A loud noise followed.
The nine rings are ringing together, and the Sanskrit sounds are bursting.
The nearest demons were all smashed to pieces by the nine-ringed tin staff.
The skins were tattered, causing these demons to be like deflated rubber balls, falling limply to the ground one by one, lifeless.
The river water that seeped out seemed to be alive, constantly surging, and looked extremely sticky.
Chen Yi stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and the nine-ring tin staff fell back into his hand.
"What an eminent monk!"
"Wow, it's the savior, our savior is here!"
"Jie, Jie, Jie, life should not be cut off, life should not be cut off!"
"It's so easy to kill the water ghoul. It's so powerful!"
Seeing this, the sand-hunting ghosts realized that the savior had arrived, and they all ran to his vicinity. The Liusha River had one wave after another, and soon several more so-called water ghouls were pushed ashore.
They have no intelligence, they catch monsters when they see them, and they just drag them into the river.
Chen Yi frowned, took the initiative to meet him, raised the nine-ring tin staff, and was about to smash it down.
"careful……"
Seeing this, those Taosha ghosts quickly gave a kind reminder.
However, it is already too late!
Chen Xi's nine-ring staff fell, making a thumping sound.
All the water corpses that had just been pushed ashore were killed.
In a moment, water splashed!
In this case, Chen Xi had no choice but to be splashed with a few drops of water stains.
These water stains were like living things, and they would provoke them if they were stained with a little bit, and they would keep drilling into the body.
"What the hell..."
Chen Xi frowned slightly, and suddenly felt that his body and spirit were as if pressed by a stone, which seemed quite heavy.
At the same time, several voices rang in his mind.
"I must not die here, my beautiful wife is still waiting for my silver to redeem herself..."
"Pick more sand, earn more gold, and go home to marry a wife!"
Voices full of obsessions kept echoing in his mind.
Chen Xi knew how powerful it was, and hurriedly recited the Heart Sutra silently.
Fortunately, he was only stained with a few drops of water stains, and the Heart Sutra suppressed these obsessions in a short time.
However, these obsessions did not disappear, but pressed on Chen Xi, as if he was carrying several living people.
"What a quicksand river, it's so evil..."
Chen Xi had just cultivated two consciousnesses, and originally wanted to show off his skills, but unexpectedly, the quicksand river gave him a blow.
If the water in the quicksand river was the same as what he had just seen, I'm afraid it would be impossible to cross the river...
At this time, the sand-washing ghosts saw that the river bank was safer, and hurried over.
They looked up and down at Chen Xi and found that he was not hurt at all, and they were all surprised.
"He can actually bear the water of the quicksand river, he is indeed a great monk!"
At this time, Shi Gandang and the toad spirit rushed over.
When they saw Chen Xi surrounded by these sand-washing ghosts, they mistakenly thought that these little ghosts wanted to harm the Buddha.
Shi Gandang wanted to slap Chen Xi out of his sympathy for the demon.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xi raised his hand first to stop them.
"I'm fine, don't do it."
"I just have something to ask these little ghosts..."
After saying this, Shi Gandang reluctantly withdrew his palm.
Chen Xi looked at these sand-washing ghosts who obviously knew something, and then spoke in a deep voice.
"Do you little ghosts know what the situation is in this quicksand river?"
"What are the water corpse ghosts you are talking about?"
When several sand-washing ghosts heard their savior speak, they all complained.
"Master, you don't know, this quicksand river was fine before!"
"Yes, I don't know why it started to flood 25 days ago, and we can't wash sand anymore..."
"How can we live like this!"
25 days ago?
Chen Xi raised his eyebrows. At that time, he seemed to be having a ridiculous dream because he took the nine-ring tin staff.
"The monsters you just killed, monk, are water corpse ghosts."
"Some of the monsters that sank into the quicksand river and drowned will turn into this appearance, with only a skin full of water inside."
"Water corpse ghosts have no intelligence and only want to drag other monsters into the water."
When the sand-diggers mentioned the water corpse ghosts, they were obviously still a little scared.
Chen Xi and the toad spirit looked at each other when they heard it.
These water corpse ghosts are somewhat like the group of water monkeys they met in the sewage river in Gao Laozhuang before.
It's just that the water corpse ghosts here are more evil and more dangerous.
After all, the water monkeys dragged them into the water, and at most they would get some filth on their bodies, but it would not be fatal.
But if you are dragged into the water by the water corpse ghosts here, you will be drowned by the weak water of quicksand and be obsessed with obsession.
Chen Xi's face was solemn, as if he had thought of something, and he turned to ask these sand-washing ghosts.
"What is the origin of this quicksand river, and why is it so dangerous?"
"Since you often wash sand here, how did you survive until now?"
The sand-washing ghosts did not hide anything when they heard it, and immediately told the cause and effect clearly like pouring beans.
The quicksand river mentioned by the sand-washing ghosts is related to the story that Chen Xi knows.
It turns out that a long time ago, the quicksand river was just an ordinary river.
Because every piece of river water is wrapped with a grain of yellow sand, it is named the quicksand river.
Later, it was heard that it was the gods in the sky, the curtain-rolling general of the Jade Emperor, who accidentally broke the colorful glass lamp.
The colorful colored glass lamp shattered into the mortal world and fell into the quicksand river, which gave rise to many miracles!
"Oh? The colorful colored glass lamp?"
Chen Xi couldn't help but interrupt, obviously he didn't expect that the danger here was because of a so-called colored glass lamp.
"Yes, the colorful colored glass lamp is a treasure of the immortals!"
"It is said that the colorful colored glass lamp was originally used to carry the obsessions of all living beings."
"And the colorful colored glass fire in it can burn obsessions."
"As a result, after it was broken, the obsessions of all living beings fell into the quicksand river, which made it impossible for birds to fly over here and goose feathers to float."
"But later, hehe, this treasure was almost repaired!"
