According tocounty annalsrecord.
据县志记载。Coastal area of Luoshui, has the river Godlegenddozensyears ago, at that timedid not need the living personsacrificial offering, consecrated the incense and candleoftento rain the alleviationdrought.
洛水沿岸,早在数十年前就有河神传说,那时候无需活人祭祀,供奉香火就时常降雨缓解旱灾。Severalyears ago starts, must the offering sacrificesboys and girls, the river Godmeet the spellcastingrainfall.
自十几年前开始,必须献祭童男童女,河神才会施法降雨。
The blood sacrificecaused the attention of wanderingloose cultivator, reportedto the Qing Statewithin the boundariesDaisawadowntown streets, became one of the Pill Cauldron Secteliminate demonforeign affairs.
血祭引起了云游散修的注意,上报给庆国境内大泽坊市,就成了丹鼎宗除魔外务之一。„When droughtcomes, the thousand li (500 km), diedscarletmanyboys and girls, does not see the immortalto manage. The river Godeatsseveral, the spellcastingrainfalllife-saving, the immortalcomessubdue demonseliminate demon!”
“旱灾来时,赤地千里,死了多少童男童女,不见有仙人来管。河神吃几个,施法降雨救人,仙人就来降妖除魔!”Niu Dazhuboth eyesare red: „Thisactuallywhois the monster, whois the demon?”牛大柱双目赤红:“这究竟谁是妖,谁是魔?”Zhou Yi coldsound said: „Does good deedsdoes good deeds, does evildoes evil, cannotjumble together. Does not eat the personalso to rain, why can also offer sacrifices?”周易冷声道:“行善即行善,作恶即作恶,不可混为一谈。不食人也能降雨,为何还要献祭?”„Thatis the illiteratedoes not understandto feel grateful!”
“那是愚民不懂感恩!”Niu Dazhutaunted: „The river Godonlyneeded the incense and candleto consecrate, canrainsolutionHan, however the illiterateobtained the advantage, actuallyleft uncultivated the rivertemple. Startsto demandafter the river Godbloodfoodsacrificial offering, is well-frequented, extendsunceasingly!”牛大柱嘲讽道:“原本河神只需香火供奉,就能降雨解旱,然而愚民得了好处,却荒废了河神庙。从河神开始索要血食祭祀后,香火旺盛,延绵不绝!”„Thereforeis far from the good and evil, is only the transaction.”
“所以谈不上善恶,只是交易罢了。”Zhou Yi saidslowly: „Todaycut unable to kill the river God, tomorrowwill have othermemberto come, will happen one daywill cutto kill the rebellingevil spirit.”周易缓缓说道:“今日斩杀不了河神,明日也会有其他修士来,终有一天会斩杀作乱妖魔。”„Killed the river God, can yourain?”
“杀了河神,你会来降雨吗?”Niu Dazhuboth eyesare red, if the shapeis crazy: „Heard that the immortalheavyretributive justice, will have the droughtin the futureagain, scarlet the thousand li (500 km), these people of tragic deatharemakeyoukill!”牛大柱双目赤红,状若疯狂:“听说仙人重因果报应,将来再有旱灾,赤地千里,那些惨死的人就是让你们害死!”„Thinks that is an evil person, wherethinks that is an idiot.”
“原以为是个恶人,哪想到是个蠢货。”Zhou Yi shrugs, said: „Senior Brother Hecultivation base and snakemonsteris similar, canachievegroup of cloudBuyu, rescues the thousand li (500 km)drought?”周易耸耸肩,说道:“贺师兄修为与蛇妖相彷,能做到行云布雨,解救千里旱灾吗?”„Drillsseveralwellsalsoto assemble, thousandinside clothrain...... the Sectoldancestorcouldachieve.”
“打几口井还凑合,千里布雨……宗门老祖兴许能做到。”Senior Brother Helooks up the day, both eyesmiraculous glowtwinkle: „Observed the celestial phenomenonrecentlyto have the rain, approximately78dayslater. Therefore, Junior Brothervermilionthatsnakemonsterilliteratemethod, calculated?”贺师兄抬头看天,双目灵光闪烁:“观天象近日有雨,大约在七八天后。所以,朱师弟连那蛇妖愚民手段,也算到了?”„Beforehandhas investigated.”
“事先调查过罢了。”Zhou Yi is extremely carefulto the Sectforeign affairs, does not investigate thoroughlydoes not dareto come, to sigh: „Seriouslyisthatsnakemonsterrainfall, Iwill not mixthis matter, so as to avoid being hardto choose.”周易对宗门外务慎之又慎,不查清楚可不敢来,叹息一声:“当真是那蛇妖降雨,我也不会来掺和此事,免得难以抉择。”Niu Dazhuunderstoodtwopeopleto talk, turnedfrom the violent angerstartled, startedto question.牛大柱听懂了二人对话,从暴怒变成了愕然,又开始质疑。„Is impossible! Is absolutely impossible!”
“不可能!绝对不可能!”„Incident......”
“还有一事……”Zhou Yi said: „Thatsnakemonsterdoes not have the abilityto rain, the originalraincloudwill wash out, is actually not how difficultmatter.”周易说道:“那蛇妖没能耐降雨,将原本的雨云冲散,却不是多么难的事。”Niu Dazhupūpassesone, falls down.牛大柱噗通一声,跌倒在地。„Double, the fatheris unfair toyou......”
“双儿,爹对不起你啊……”

人群中有孩童父母,见此情景再也忍不住,呜呜呜哭出声来,立刻有族人将他们拖下去,堵住嘴捆住手脚,免得惊扰了河神还要重新献祭。Niu Dazhushouted loudly: „Burns incense, kneels............ to do obeisanceagain!”牛大柱高喊:“上香,跪……起……再拜!”Kneels down a bigpiece, as the Niu Dazhusoundkowtowsneatly.

“阵法?”
The snakemonsterfrightens the screamto make noise, the hugesnakebodymelts the waterunexpectedly, integratesin the riverto vanishdoes not see.
蛇妖吓得尖叫出声,庞大蛇躯竟融化成水,融入河中消失不见。„Goodexquisitefleeing from within the water, no wonderescapesrepeatedlychases down!”

The snakemonsteris scaredimmediately, attempting to break through in all directions to break throughforcefully, howevercansurroundfakepill'sarray, is notitcanshake.
蛇妖顿时慌了神,左冲右突要强行突破,然而能困住假丹的阵法,根本不是它能撼动。Senior Brother Heand the otherswielded a flag, golden lightfallin the water, does not see the snakemonsterform, actuallysees the water surfaceto dyeblood red, is floating the flesh lumpandscale.贺师兄等人执掌阵旗,一道道金光落在水中,不见蛇妖身影,却见水面染成血红,漂浮着肉块、鳞片。Roar!

黄烟似是无形虚幻,将紫光包裹后,又迅速凝固成半透明实质。这才看清楚紫光模样,竟然是一根鹿角,大约有半尺长短。„Dragoncorner/horn!”
