Orochi Longevity

Chapter 6 Strange Anecdote

The matchmaker's words made the father and mother relax their brows.

The farmer even nodded slightly aside.

The husband and wife knew that the young woman was not talking nonsense.

The snake's heart was slightly cold, and its consciousness passed over the two farmers silently.

Both of them have offered incense to it and performed the ceremony of kneeling and worshiping, so that it can detect what they think in their hearts.

Just now, it saw the strangeness in the expressions of the two, so it wanted to see what happened.

The earth was eclipsed.

There are fragmented pictures, passing by the snake's eyes.

One is that the husband and wife stood in front of their house and saw a horse-drawn carriage passing through the village from a distance, carrying many large red wooden boxes.

It is full of good wine and meat, beautiful clothes and beautiful clothes.

The second is that the villagers were on the bank of the Zhang River together, and saw from a distance that Grandma Xiangu ordered all kinds of treasures to be pushed into the river.

Not long after, the river surged up, as if consciously, and swept away all the wooden boxes.

A hint of admiration could be seen faintly on the faces of the husband and wife.

The snake was slightly surprised.

This kind of abnormal scene must be someone who used supernatural powers.

Hebo?

Is this thing a human or a demon, a monster or a fairy?

The snake heart is vigilant.

It originally regarded Liujia Village as its own territory, but unexpectedly there was another king just a few feet away.

As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. If they live in the same place, they must have competing interests.

Just like now.

If He Bo is really asked to marry his "Xiangtou" as his wife, it will definitely be inconvenient for him to do things in the future.

Incense is closely related to its longevity plan, and it should not give up an inch.

Snake observed the situation in the house with cold eyes, and his cold gaze passed over the matchmaker named Liu Cuihong from time to time.

It smelled a stench from this person, and it hated this smell.

".But my daughter is really young..."

The farmer thought for a while, with a hesitant expression.

Seeing that the husband and wife were talking loosely, Liu Cuihong hurriedly chased after the victory:

"It's not too young, it's not too young, my relative's daughter can give birth at twelve, what are you afraid of at thirteen?"

"That girl is miserable. She was sold to an old bachelor for a penny. Now she is only eighteen. She looks like an old lady."

"As the saying goes, a man is afraid of entering the wrong profession, and a woman is afraid of marrying the wrong man, that's exactly what it is."

"Our daughter married Master He Bo to enjoy the blessings. I don't know how many people want to marry but have no way. You must seize the opportunity."

"It should be noted that after passing this village, this shop will disappear."

The matchmaker's mouth is eloquent, so naturally it is not comparable to the two farmers.

After some rhetoric, the husband and wife fell into deep thought and hesitated.

Seeing this situation, Liu Cuihong couldn't help showing joy, and grabbed the pregnant mother's hand to be affectionate:

"Good sister, I look at your belly, it looks like a boy."

"When I saw you today, I felt kind-hearted. Looking at you is like seeing my own sister. If so, I will tell you something from my heart."

"I heard long ago that your family is not rich. When this baby boy is born, do you still plan to let him plan for food in the field? You husband and wife are not bad in appearance, and the child must be handsome when he is born, not to mention handsome. "

"As a pilgrimage official, you have always loved people who are beautiful. If you can let your son study for a few years, and then go to the exam for fame, wouldn't it be a turnaround and glory in the family?"

The eyes of the peasant woman with a big belly lit up, and the matchmaker spoke to her heart.

"...The head of the family and I think the same way. That's why we work hard every day and don't dare to rest. After the land is planted, we go to work in the city, so that our old Liu's family can also produce a scholar!"

The farmer's eyes were shy and he was speechless.

But when he heard his mother-in-law talk about their simple wishes, there was a bit of hope on his ravine-ridden face.

Liu Cuihong smiled, her body immediately relaxed, and she sat back.

A look of success flashed in her eyes.

Although it was only for a moment, it could not escape the gaze of the snake.

"My good brother, my good sister! Do you know that Gui Niang was the first to marry He Bo? Their family has now bought a full ten acres of fertile land. Every day there is plenty of fish and meat, and the days are extremely nourishing."

"Do you know why?"

"Master Hebo is never lenient in giving dowry when he marries a wife. If your daughter is married, I can guarantee that the dowry will be at least a hundred silver! At that time, let alone for your son to study, there is still some left over to build a big house. The rest, when your child grows up, take it to manage, are you afraid that you will not be able to get a good reputation?"

These words are not unattractive.

Even the farmer was a little moved and emotional for a while, as if he had traveled through time and saw the picture described by the matchmaker.

Watching everything, the snake suddenly became murderous, it only thought that Liu Cuihong was as cunning as a fox, and she was good at playing with people's hearts.

For example, at this time, when the woman saw that the two couples were excited and discussing in a low voice, she actually showed a sneer.

This house is the territory of snakes.

As a Baojiaxian, it will naturally not tolerate other people's presumptuousness.

It's just... This woman is called Grandma Xiangu by the villagers, and she is He Bo's spokesperson.

If it is killed on the spot, there must be many hidden dangers.

At this time, He Bo is in the light, but it is in the dark.

Its existence has not been noticed.

Snakes always like to lie dormant and approach when hunting, and then kill them with one blow.

Naturally, it will not bury its own advantages because of a momentary heart.

What's more... There are already people who can't hold back and are ready to act.

Boom!

Just when the two farmers were about to agree to the marriage contract, the door of the back room was suddenly pushed open.

"I don't marry!"

The girl rushed out angrily:

"Father and mother, aren't you selling your daughter? I'm only thirteen this year, and I haven't...haven't reached the age yet! You're pushing me into the pit of fire!"

The husband and wife did not expect this sudden scene, and they were probably a little ashamed in their hearts, so they avoided answering.

On the contrary, Liu Cuihong was still smiling, not surprised.

She should be used to such scenes, her tone is still so gentle:

"Don't worry, little girl, why are you so fierce? Your parents let you marry Master He Bo, so that you can enjoy the blessing."

"Let's talk about the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. How can you, a little girl, have the final say on matters of marriage?"

The girl sneered, and her anger was beyond words:

"Don't think I don't know, why He Bo married a wife, isn't it just forcing the girl to jump into the river?"

"If you jump into the river, how can you survive? You poisonous woman, you want to kill me!"

Liu Cuihong's complexion was slightly cold, and she smiled cruelly:

"Little girl, don't talk nonsense. Ordinary people go to the river, of course they want to die, but how can the wife He Bo wants to marry be an ordinary person?"

"At that time, Master He Bo will naturally protect you with his magic and send you to the fairy mansion."

The girl immediately said:

"Since you said that the three brides lived a life of immortality, why did they never come back? Why did no one see them again?"

Liu Cuihong said:

"They have become immortal wives, and following Master He Bo to practice immortal arts, they naturally want to sever contact with the mortal world. Now, they are immune to all diseases and remain youthful forever. The happiness among them is beyond the imagination of ordinary people."

She doesn't like being questioned, and before the girl could speak, she retorted:

"Let me ask you, you keep calling me a poisonous woman, claiming that I want to kill you. I am a woman, and I can't even bear to kill chickens on weekdays. Why do I do this?"

The girl looked at Liu Cuihong from top to bottom, as if she wanted to see through her:

"I once heard a story about He Bo marrying a wife."

"It is rumored that during the Spring and Autumn Period, the floods in Ye were severe, and the local people suffered unspeakably. A witch jumped out and said that the serious floods were caused by He Bo's anger. Only by asking everyone to marry He Bo will he be able to calm his anger!"

"After hearing this, the three respectable elders of the family, fearing to offend He Bo, immediately made a big fanfare to marry He Bo."

"From then on, the Water God of the Yellow River has to marry a woman who has not left the court every year, and he never falls every year, but the floods have not stopped."

"Wei Wenhou sent Ximen Bao to deal with the floods. Ximen Bao heard about this and wanted to attend this year's He Bo's wedding. You see, this girl is so ugly, the River God will definitely be furious!"

Originally, Liu Cuihong frowned and interrupted the girl's speech, but she was eloquent and told the story very vividly.

She was fascinated by it for a moment, and she didn't stop it.

Even the snake raised his spirits and listened.

"Your vision is too poor. I must personally choose the bride! Ximen Leopard said: How about it, witch, you are responsible for telling Lord River God to let the old man give him a few days. I, Ximen Leopard, will definitely choose one to satisfy him Girl."

"With a wave of his hand, he ordered several officials to tie up the witch and throw her into the river. Unexpectedly, after a long time, there was no movement in the river, so he threw his disciples in again, and there was no movement either."

"This witch and her disciples are just idiots. I have been there for a long time, but I haven't heard back! The three elders are honorable and entrusted with the work. Why don't you let the three elders go there! Ximen Bao is pretending to tie the three elders. The third elder is crying Yell, tell the truth."

"It turns out that Hebo's marriage was all made up by witches and elders, in order to extort marriage fees from the common people on the pretext of getting married! Every year a wedding ceremony is held for Hebo, and they will collect money from the common people in the whole county. Millions of dollars in expenses, what kind of wedding expenses, I bah, didn't they all end up in their pockets in the end."

"It's all about cheating money. You need to know that every time they cheat, an innocent girl will pay for it! They really have a heart of snakes and scorpions, and they are extremely vicious!"
