Fruit fairy

Chapter 5
At this time, Master Wu sent his disciples to find Patriarch Li. After some explanations, Patriarch Li immediately sent people to block off the shore to prevent the villagers from approaching. At the same time, he prepared more than a dozen small sampans and some dummies made of branches and straw. Hand it over to the disciple of Pavilion Master Wu.

These disciples first fixed the dummies on the small sampan, and then put something on them, took out the compass-shaped magic weapon to check for a while, and nodded to confirm that they were correct, and immediately went to notify the owner of Wu.

Pavilion Master Wu got up and came to the lake, first took out a piece of yellow talisman paper and pasted it on the bow of the boat, after chanting a few words, he opened his mouth and sprayed, a ray of spiritual light disappeared into the talisman paper in an instant, followed by a A faint halo like a flame emanated from the talisman paper.

Master Wu pasted the remaining small sampans with talisman papers according to the gourd painting. After activating the wind-fixing talisman, he cast spells one by one to send these small sampans into the lake.

It turns out that these yellow talisman papers are the lowest-level wind-fixing talismans, so these small sampans can stand on the lake without fear of wind and rain, just like the reefs in the river can stand still on the lake.

But this wind-defining talisman is actually only available for three days, and if the snake demon cannot be caught after three days, it will have to be arranged separately.

These small sampans floating on the lake seem to be messy, but in fact they are arranged in an orderly manner with the same distance. In this way, no matter where the snake monster comes out of the lake, it will be sensed by the detection device on the dummy, and then Pavilion Master Wu Will come right away.

Of course, it would be even better if the snake demon could swallow the dummy into its stomach. At that time, even if the snake demon hides at the bottom of the lake, he can easily find its trace.

At this time, the patriarch also threw the detoxification pill into the well outside the ancestral hall according to the instructions of the head of the hall, and called the villagers to drink it.

After a while, the villagers came to the ancestral hall one after another and formed a long line. Li Miao was short and had a leg injury, so he pushed his brother to stop and go here. The line was already very long. So it can only be hung at the end.

The Wang family who was waiting here was already anxious, and when he found the two brothers, he immediately ran wildly and wept with joy. After repeated persuasion from everyone, he gradually calmed down, and he and his two sons were in the back row.

Looking at the long queue, Li Can was in a daze for a moment, thinking that he had traveled back again, but the people in front were not poking their throats with sticks, but fetching water from wells for the clansmen to drink.

Patriarch Li is an old man in his sixties, tall and thin, with gray hair. Standing by the well, he shouted: "Drink first, don't drink more than one bowl per person."

"It's not a pity to drink it after the livestock, even if the effect of the medicine weakens and dies, but you all have to remember that any livestock that dies of the virus must be buried and not eaten."

The patriarch was very thoughtful and reminded in time, but after shouting, the faces of the few people at the end of the line turned bitter.

When the Jiedu Pill first melts, it is naturally powerful, but as the water in the well continues to pour out and dilute, the efficacy of the medicine will become weaker and weaker until it is completely useless. I'm afraid that many livestock will suffer, even if they don't die, they will be seriously ill.

Seeing that the discussion at the end of the line was getting louder, the patriarch walked over and asked. The mother and son at the end of the line didn't say anything, but the stronger clansmen in front complained one after another.

After hearing this, the patriarch said angrily: "Everything is due to fate, since you are late, don't complain."

"Do you know how many clansmen can no longer drink this detoxification water? Nineteen. They were standing there alive just an hour ago, but now? They are already dead, and some of them were swallowed by the snake demon There are no bones left, some were crushed by it and turned into a puddle of flesh, do you think they were wronged or wronged? Who should they turn to for reasoning?"

There was silence in front of the ancestral hall, and a needle could be heard falling.

That's right, these people just watched the monster-killing fight from a distance, but in the end they died in bad luck.Of course they died wronged and aggrieved, but what can they do?
Killing the snake demon with his own hands to avenge them, no one in the Li family has this ability, that's why they invited Pavilion Master Wu to help.It would be even more impossible to blame Pavilion Master Wu for the nineteen lives. Once Pavilion Master Wu got angry and let go, the whole clan would suffer and become the rations of the snake monster in the lake.

It can only be said that their fate is not good, and they can only complain about the injustice of heaven.

Seeing that everyone said nothing, the patriarch shook his head and left here with a sigh. It was only at this moment that Li Can belatedly felt a bit of fear.If the snake demon fled in his direction instead of the lake, could he still sit in the cart and wait to drink the detoxified well water?
Thinking of this, Li Can actually felt a chill in the hot dog days, and shivered inexplicably.

Three days passed in a flash, and the snake demon hiding at the bottom of the lake did not move at all.

So Pavilion Master Wu changed a batch of wind-fixing talismans and still sat cross-legged by the lake and waited, but at this time his complexion was already very ugly.

Not only did the skin folds become much older, but the pale and bloodless face was also covered with gray gas, and several thick black bloodshots protruded from the neck, which was very conspicuous.

Hall Master Wu is also very anxious at this time. He was accidentally injured by its poisonous gas when fighting with the snake monster on the waterfall cliff, and consumed too much when chasing here to fight, and the poison in his body can hardly be suppressed. , if the snake demon cannot be captured within three days, he can only find a remote place to heal his injuries.

Thinking of this, Pavilion Master Wu immediately transmitted a few words to a disciple, and after a while, the disciple flew over with Patriarch Li on his back, put it down, gave a salute, and immediately walked away to be vigilant.

"Patriarch Li has also seen my situation at this time. I have tried my best to kill the snake monster, but it hides in the lake and refuses to come out. We can only leave first and raise him for a while."

"Ah? If the immortal master leaves this place, what will my Li clan do? Doesn't that mean that the whole clan will be destroyed here?" The patriarch said in surprise.

"There's no way around this, so I've informed the patriarch to take your clansmen to move away from this place, the farther the better."

"It's better to move to Sifang City to be safer. The city lord's realm is much higher than that of Wu, and there is a magic circle in the city. This snake demon will definitely not dare to go to die."

Naturally, it will take a long time for the whole clan to get ready to move and leave. Three days is definitely not enough, so the patriarch tentatively asked:
"I don't know if Pavilion Master Wu can invite the city lord to come together to kill the monsters. How about the little old man prepare a generous gift to thank you?"

Pavilion Master Wu had met the City Master a few times before, so he was barely familiar with him, so he said:
"As far as I know, the city lord has been in seclusion all year round because his life is approaching. As long as mundane things like exorcising demons and killing monsters don't endanger him, he will naturally not take it lightly, unless you can come up with something that makes his heart beat. OK."

Hearing this remark, Patriarch Li immediately pondered. He still understands the truth of not revealing wealth but not revealing one's appearance. If the treasures passed down from generation to generation in the clan were exposed to this Pavilion Master Wu, he wondered if he would commit murder for money. Act of?

According to rumors, there was an exorcist who did this a few years ago. If the exorcism failed, he slaughtered all the people in a village, looted all their belongings, and disappeared.

That's why he sent people to the city to inquire about it. The reputation of the Wu Guanzhu in front of him is not bad. Although the asking price is a bit higher, he has not heard of any evil deeds.

While he was thinking and hesitating, the Pavilion Master Wu seemed to see the worry in his heart and said:
"Since the patriarch doesn't believe me, Wu, why waste time? I'd better persuade the Li tribe to move away as soon as possible. Since I have accepted your gift, I will keep my promise. If this snake demon escapes within three days, I will definitely kill it. kill."

"If it hides in the lake and doesn't come out, I won't spend my life here. I can only raise it for a period of time and then go look for it after it fully recovers. In this way, killing it will not be considered a breach of the oath. of."

The patriarch couldn't help but secretly smiled bitterly, you have never violated the oath, but our Li family will die because of this, after we all die at the mouth of the snake demon, is there any point in avenging us?
Of course, I can only think about these words in my heart, but I dare not say them out loud.
