Hearing this call, Chen Yuan and the fat Taoist stopped and heard a loud roar from the water waves. Circles of water waves pushed them to the shore. Several docked boats crowded together and rippled in the waves.
Ups and downs.
The whirlpool on the river calmed down, revealing a huge turtle head, which was as big as half a room. Its eyes were like lanterns and emitted bursts of green light. The fat Taoist subconsciously clenched the hilt of the sword, but his face looked plain, but his body
The little Taoist boy next to him nervously pulled the master in, and subconsciously looked at Mr. Chen next to him.
This old turtle... Chen Yuan fell into thoughts, and the surging memories quickly found a crocodile, a turtle, and two water monsters he encountered on the way back to Funiu Town after Yulong Mountain. He didn't expect to see them again now. One of them
It has grown so big.
Just as I was thinking about it, the turtle's head that poked out of the water gradually revealed its long neck, pushed out of the water, and its huge carapace gradually appeared, floating on the water with its head slightly lowered.
"Old turtle pays homage to the true king."
"You're welcome." Knowing that he was a familiar demon, Chen Yuan didn't behave like a human demon. He smiled and stepped forward to greet him, "No wonder when I came here, I felt that the smell in the river was familiar. I didn't expect it to be you for a moment.
, How have you been living peacefully in Jiangzhong all these years?"
"Old turtle is living well. Are you going to cross the river, Zhenjun? Old turtle can carry you across like before." As he said that, the big turtle moved over. After all, it is only on the shore that you can really feel the pressure brought by its huge body.
, it changed its direction, twisted its long neck and looked behind it, "Zhenjun, come up."
"I still have companions." Chen Yuan tried.
"It doesn't matter. Friends of the true king are also people who hate evil as much as they hate it. They are magnanimous people. The slap just now was so painful that I will remember it in my heart, so let's come up together."
As soon as the fat Taoist heard this, he pulled the little Taoist boy who didn't dare to take a step, and quickly followed Chen Yuan in three or two steps to get on the big turtle's back armor. He greedily touched the soft skirt around the armor and licked it.
Licking his lips, he was about to say something: "Nourishes yin and cools blood, replenishes the heart, nourishes the kidneys and strengthens the bones, stews the flavor, and can prevent and treat physical weakness..." The disciple pulled down the corner of his robe and shook his head: "
Master, we are in the middle of the river, so we can’t say anything!”
"Do you need to tell me? This Tao is just memorizing... Tao scriptures."
While the master and apprentice were whispering, Chen Yuan stood a little in front of the old turtle's back. Facing the cold wind on the river, a strand of hair was gently stroking. He looked at the river and asked softly: "I remember you still have one
Companion, where is the old crocodile?"
The turtle that emerged from the water in front was silent for a moment before speaking. Its voice was a little low: "The longevity is over, and the body is still at the bottom of the river, but his soul went to Liu Ye's place to work as an errand. Once, he told me in a dream that he would wait for my longevity.
When it’s over, you can pass by.”
"Actually, you don't want to go?"
Chen Yuan could hear what the old turtle was thinking. Yes, he had been cultivating for hundreds of years, being enshrined on this river, living freely, and suddenly he couldn't escape the fate of death. After all, he felt hesitant in his heart.
"So, if you don't kill the man, you just want your daughter to have someone to belong to and take care of it on your behalf?"
"The true king has a sharp eye, and it is indeed what Lao Yuan wants in his heart."
The waves in the river calmed down as the old turtle swam away. Amidst the sound of the waves pushing away, the turtle's head turned slightly and said, "Old turtle wants to ask the true king for something."
"What's the matter? If it can be done, it's okay to say it."
"Zhenjun and Yin Shen have an old relationship. Back then, the fifth and sixth masters were all around Zhenjun. It shows that they have a very good relationship. Could you please take the time to ask me how many years I have left?"
Chen Yuan happily agreed.
Although I can't summon the gods now, and I can't enter the True Monarch Temple in the Inner Heaven and Earth, it is not difficult to find the reason and get these things back, and I can ask Saint Zhong Kui.
The other party was carrying his group across the river. He had never done anything bad on this river in the past few years. Asking for the other party was just a favor.
When they were about to reach the other side, Chen Yuan didn't need the old turtle to go ashore in person to send him there. He called the fat Taoist and flew up. He crossed the river like a big bird returning to the forest and landed on the river beach. He looked back and looked at the river where he was still there.
The old man looked at him quietly.
Chen Yuan raised his hand and said, "When I take the time to ask, I will send a message to you. See you again in the future."
"Zhenjun, don't forget to ask,
Also... I am grateful to the True Lord for not killing me back then. Now my journey of cultivating Taoism has come to an end and my life span is about to end. I will not be here anymore, so I hope that the True Lord will help me take care of my daughter."
The big turtle was lying in the river, finally holding back what he wanted to say. His voice was rough and choked like an old man's, which made people feel a little moved.
Chen Yuan felt a mixture of emotions in her heart. She looked at the giant turtle, which was bowing its head in despair and gradually disappearing into the water, and suddenly opened his mouth to call it to stop.
"Old turtle, after more than a hundred years, do you have a name for yourself?"
Ao raised his head and shook his head in confusion, "I have a surname, but I haven't given it a name."
"What's your surname?"
"This river is my surname."
"Since we have met each other, and since you are eager to protect your daughter, and the people on the river bank have not harassed you, I will give you a name." Chen Yuan looked at the Taotao River, the old turtle was calm when it encountered the water, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but smile.
"I do have one, I don't know if I like it, Fubo, Jiang Fubo!"
The turtle's head in the river was glowing with green light. The body that had been sinking suddenly rose up, stretched its neck and raised its head toward the sky. It opened its mouth and suddenly let out a loud cry.
In an instant, the waves on the river were turbulent, rolling back and forth, and the gloomy clouds in the sky made a deafening thunder.
When the turtle's head lowered again, a pair of long fleshy whiskers appeared on his chin.
"Jiang Fubo, thank you Zhenjun for giving me the name!"
As the words fell, a white light flashed from the giant turtle's body. Amidst the smoke and dust, an old man in a dark green round collar and wide robe stood on the water, raised his hands to Chen Yuan on the shore, and bowed in a grand manner.
"Go ahead. Although the edict is given to you and you can move forward on the road, there will be an end after all. It's a good time to protect your daughter and the people along the river!"
Chen Yuan raised his sleeves and flicked his sleeves, and the old man on the river thanked him and slowly sank to the bottom of the river. The turbulent river surface and the strong wind suddenly became calm.

Chen Yuan withdrew his gaze and snapped his fingers at the fat Taoist who was slightly lost in thought. The latter also hit the little Taoist boy on the head who was so shocked that he could not close his mouth.
You have an ear-to-ear mouth, and you have never seen the world. From now on, you will go out on your own, and don’t say that this is your master.”
"Master, you were grinning from ear to ear just now, and you were talking about me."
"Hey, you've learned to talk back?! You're asking for a beating!"
"Ouch, Master, I was wrong."
The little Taoist boy, who had been hit several times on the head, was running with his hands on his head. The fat Taoist breathed a sigh of relief at his bent knuckles and chased after him. The master and the apprentice rushed past Chen Yuan and ran to the front to fight, which was quite lively.
…
It was another two days of noisy going north, and nothing strange happened on the way.
In addition, both Chen Yuan and Sun Zhengde had the ability to rush on their way, and they almost reached the border of Yuzhou in two days, but they did not take the official route, otherwise it would not be easy to use their magic.
Of course, it is not impossible to hide your body with a blindfold and rush on the road, but there are frequent carriages and horses on the official road, especially after passing Jingzhou to Yuzhou. There are many pedestrians, carriages and horses on the road. If one fails to stop, someone will die, so take the remote path.
It will be much smoother.
"Master, I'm going to relieve myself next to you."
The power of the speed talisman was exhausted. At this time, the three people's footsteps slowed down. The fat Taoist hugged the hem of his robe and rushed towards the bushes in the forest not far away. Before Chen Yuan and the little Taoist boy took a few steps, they heard
He shouted, "Wow, there's someone!"
Then, I saw the fat Taoist resisting something, followed by a horse, and came back quickly.
On his shoulders was a soldier wearing leather armor. Judging from the style of the leather armor, he must be Liang Bing. There were feather arrows stuck on his back and thigh. Fortunately, he was discovered in time and was saved.
Chen Yuan wrapped two feather arrows with magic power and gently pulled them out of the enemy's wound. He asked the fat Taoist to take out the refined wound medicine from his bag and apply it on the soldier.
After using some mana to clear away the blood congestion in the opponent's body, the fainted Liang Zu gradually regained consciousness.
"...Help...help me bring a message to the rear...team..."
"What?" The fat Taoist leaned down and listened.
"The front team... the general... the prince... was attacked... surrounded..."
Chen Yuan frowned slightly and put his fingertips on the soldier's forehead, letting him sleep to retain some of his energy. "Old Sun, you and Yingxian will follow him, I'll go over and take a look first."
From the soldiers' words, it is not difficult to tell who was attacked and trapped in a dangerous situation.
At this moment, the sky was getting darker. Chen Yuan stood up, pulled out the magic sword in his hand and threw it into the air. The moment he took the hilt of the sword, it turned into a stream of light and flew over the forest, searching for the troops along the tops of the lush trees.
