Zhenlongting

In the next ten days, no one knew that in the quiet and elegant original Zhao Mansion, and now in the home-like Zhang Mansion, a small carp passed through the Hualong Pass without a sound.

No thunder, no catastrophe.

It all fell into place.

Fortunately, Zhang Kun also prepared many excuses in advance, and laid out a patchwork of 36-layer formations, but in the end, nothing happened.

When the little carp turned into a white dragon nine feet above the ground and walked around the house three times, excitedly swimming in the sky, there wasn't even a single dark cloud or a drop of rain falling from the sky.

"Blessed by nature, really blessed by nature."

Zhang Kun looked a little envious.

Some creatures are like this. They are loved by God, and their bloodlines are strong. As long as they reach a certain level of awakening, they can walk the path of human monks for an unknown number of years.

You don't need to comprehend the rules of heaven and earth, nor do you need to practice various powerful skills to break through levels.

As long as you reach a certain age, it will be done directly.

Moreover, Zhang Kun could see it.

After the little carp transforms into a dragon, in future training, as long as it accumulates mana according to its blood instincts, improves its cultivation, and simply eats, sleeps and sleeps, it can reach the late stage of the fifth level.

This is kind of scary.

"Why has such a powerful talent declined so far? Even monsters in the mortal world dare to attack?"

It can only be said that the dragon family is a typical example of playing a good deck of cards to a pulp, and in the end it is either reduced to a mount, or becomes a thug of the big bosses.

Innate blood is not enough to rely on, how much achievement can be achieved, in general, it still depends on acquired hard work and hard work to fight out of adversity.

With this in mind, Zhang Kun gained some insight into everything in the world.

"Sir, is the time ripe now? Can you lead the army and go to the Water Mansion? I can't wait."

The little carp that turned into a human form again may not be called a carp at this time, but a dragon girl.

At this time, Zhang Kun's height had reached Zhang Kun's chin, and his figure was slim and slender, full of heroic vigor.

The long sword in his hand is even more clear and flowing. When he speaks and exhales, the water vapor in the air ripples slightly. In his seemingly weak body, there is unparalleled strength.

"Where is this? You are only at the beginning of the fifth level and have just broken through. By the way, I only know that the Dragon Lord of the Dongting Water Mansion is your thirteenth concubine brother. What kind of cultivation level is he?"

"Brother Thirteen, originally the body of Jiaolong, has a violent temper since he was a child, and changed his name to Ao Lie. On the day he transformed into a dragon, he killed two brothers from the same clan, escaped from the South China Sea, and came to Dongting to be called the Dragon Lord. I don't know the specific cultivation level, but I only know that there were two uncle-level elders from the South Sea Dragon Palace who came to capture them, but they were severely injured by him and returned, and one of them even died after returning to the Dragon Palace."

Speaking of this, a trace of sadness appeared in Xiao Lian's eyes.

"At the beginning, we thought that although Ao Lie had a violent temper, he would eventually care about the blood and family relationship. Under the leadership of his mother, he fled the South China Sea and came to Dongting, but was expelled from the Water Mansion. The mother's words were careless, and he even hurt her , and later fled and hid, was besieged by the Dongting Water Mansion, his injuries became serious, and he died, Aunt Xue and Aunt Jin also died, and then..."

Little carp didn't talk about the rest, but Zhang Kun knew about it. …

At that time, she was just a little carp with little magic power and a low level. She couldn't beat even the bigger fish that were slightly stronger. She fled from deep water to the shore. Perhaps because of exhaustion, she was caught by ordinary fishermen, and then The original body bought it back home.

"It turns out that the dragon clan is also fighting among themselves."

For a family with such a strong bloodline, the more they get mixed up, the more they decline. It is definitely not just because of the decline of luck.

Not to mention anything else, his haughty temperament, hot temper, and love of internal fighting must be one of the reasons.

"Since you have no friendship with the so-called thirteen concubines, but have some enmity, this matter will be easier to handle."

Zhang Kun raised his eyebrows: "In the future, you don't have to be too scruples about things. If you have grievances, you just have to get revenge. However, the time is not yet ripe, so let's not rush to do it for the time being. The rumors have to be dealt with first."

"Yes."

The little carp was very nervous. He was still crying just now, but he became happy again in a blink of an eye.

Breaking through the bottleneck of life and reaching another stage is something worth celebrating. Even in the South China Sea, if a little dragon reaches the fifth level, a banquet will be held to celebrate.

Here in Baling, there is not much attention.

Little carp still decided to cook by himself, cook some newly learned dishes recently, and have a good meal.

Except for the little carp quietly transforming into a dragon.

There is one more thing that has also been raised.

The former fast catcher, the current head catcher Wei Lian came upon smelling it.

"Uncle Wei came just in time, just in time for dinner, let's have a drink together."

Seeing the expression on Wei Lian's face, Zhang Kun's heart moved, and he didn't ask why he came, knowing that the matter might be done.

"My lord, you are being polite. This subordinate will go out of the city later."

Wei Lian felt a little embarrassed. Uncle Wei used to be able to bear it without any burden, but now, he couldn't bear it.

He is very satisfied with the current situation, with a steady demeanor. Seeing that the little carp seems to have grown up a few years, and his body, appearance and appearance have changed, he dare not look at it now, and said with a smile: "My lord's strategy of fishing in troubled waters is really ingenious Incomparably, my subordinates just sent more than 78 people to the [-] villages in the other four cities to spread the news, and immediately there was no news of anyone from Baling."

"Tell me, what is the most widely circulated news now?"

Zhang Kun smiled, this was expected.

No matter who is behind the tricks, put yourself on the fire to roast.

In the face of rumors, unless they can be eradicated from the source, and then use strong force to stuff Yoyo's mouth...

Otherwise, the more secretive it is, the more it will spread everywhere.

In the end, even if it is false, it will become true.

So, it's hard to deal with.

It is naturally impossible for Zhang Kun to solve the problem of rumors from the source.

With his personality, it is impossible for him to kill people everywhere just because of a few unintentional words made by others.

The only way is to ignore those rumors and instead release more news that seems to be true or false.

The reason why rumors are terrible is that the people who spread the rumors behind the scenes selectively spread the news to achieve a certain purpose.

But if the messy news spreads everywhere, plus some obviously ridiculous remarks, even the ignorant people can tell that it is fake news, then even if it is true news, it will be true. Lose credibility and become worthless. …

These days, Wei Lian is busy with this matter.

"The most widely circulated news, first of all, is that the adults are raising dragons in Baling and want to plot Dongting Water Mansion..."

Wei Lian paused, and his expression became a little excited: "There are two other pieces of news, which are even more shocking than the last one. They are like noses and eyes, and many people believe them. Some people say that Snake Panling The big demon Qingyun wants to sacrifice blood to the fishing village along the lake for three hundred miles, control the water mansion, and fight against the governor's mansion.

Some even said that in order to meet Fairy Mingyu in the Purple Bamboo Forest, Shi Yushu, the procurator's son, and Li Lingqiu, the guarding general, fought with each other until their heads were smashed. "

"Ha... that's interesting, who of them has met Fairy Mingyu, has she won her heart?"

Zhang Kun's eyes lit up.

"My lord, this is a lie. It's the news that the subordinates thought about for three days and nights. Not to mention, that boy Shitou looks like a scumbag, but in fact he has a good brain. These two news, Just like the real thing."

"It's fake." Zhang Kun was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

These rumors are both glamorous and bloody, much more attractive than the news about raising a dragon by myself, and they have no choice but to spread it.

"There is another piece of news that has been spread, but I'm afraid there will be hidden dangers."

After laughing, Wei Lian had some worries on his face, and said in a low voice: "The boundaries of the five cities are now being rumored that Zuo Yukun's death was because the governor's government took action against him and secretly murdered him, because he didn't want an extra person on top of his head." A sharp blade with a handle that can fall at any time, so someone is secretly doing something."

You are right, there is indeed someone doing something wrong.

But it's not the governor's office, but me.

It's not deliberate murder, it's just retaliation, it's revenge.

Zhang Kun shook his head, the news was a bit false.

However, it doesn't matter, most of the people are ignorant, and they don't really care about it. In the end, if the news is true or false, there is a conspiracy.

In particular, the fight between the Governor's Mansion and the Tiance Mansion, where they compete for power and profit, is even more delightful.

As for these small rumors about Baling, what are they worth among the countless stories about great people, true and false?

Of course, a real caring person can naturally tell what is true and what is false.

For example, at Shepanling, or at the Governor's Mansion.

However, even if they can clear the fog, it doesn't matter.

Zhang Kun didn't muddy the water in order to clear up any grievances or dispel any rumors.

The real purpose is to build the plank road openly and cross Chencang secretly.

Others thought that they were fighting wits and courage with some invisible enemies because of the rumors.

In fact, I don't care about these little things at all.

Even if the purpose is seen through, so what.

Can't solve the problem.

Then solve the man behind the creation of the problem.

Eliminate hidden dangers sooner rather than later.

……

Shepanling is known as one of the three mountains with one mansion, one temple, three mountains and five cities. It is indeed dangerous to match his reputation.

It's not how high and steep the mountain is, but that there are too many monsters on the mountain. …

Looking at it from a distance, there is a sense of colorfulness. The clouds on the mountain seem to be condensed into substance. If ordinary people take a breath, they may not even be able to shout. It is not a miracle to die suddenly on the spot.

"This is simply a poisonous mountain."

Standing thirty miles below the foot of the mountain, Zhang Kun stopped moving forward. Seeing the sparse smoke rising from the mountain village, Zhang Kun felt a chill in his heart.

"You can't be hard and painful, you can't attack by force, you have to outsmart."

No matter how much he believes in his own abilities, Zhang Kun is still very self-aware. After all, he is still only in the early stages of the Shenwu Realm, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

You can't regard yourself as an expert who is invincible in the world, and don't pay attention to the people and monsters in the world.

This mountain cannot be attacked.

If you attack now, you may win, or you may capsize in the gutter, so why bother?

If you don't act cautiously, even if you can win nine times and lose once, it's not worth it.

"Didn't it mean that the three mountain masters of Shepanling have all put their energy into fighting for the Water Palace? Judging from the current situation, there must be a monster staying behind, and it is also a monster with an extraordinary realm."

Zhang Kun knew that among the three mountain owners of Snake Pan Mountain, the mountain owner was named Qingyun, who was also the most famous Lord Qingyun. Ask the way of heaven, and directly cultivate into a demon fairy.

The second mountain master is not so famous, but his combat power is not weak at all. He is called Lingxi. It is said that the mountain rock turned into a rhinoceros, and the body of the rock gave birth to spiritual wisdom. A rare master in the middle school, it is difficult to deal with.

This one is very likely to go to Dongting with him.

There is also a three-mountain lord, named Heishui, who seems to be a black snake who has become a demon. He doesn't have much reputation on weekdays, but when it comes to being vicious and hard to provoke, this one is more famous than the two elder brothers Some.

Just like now.

There was a whimper in the distance.

The voice is suppressed, far and near, stuffy in the throat, making it hard to hear.

Zhang Kun's five senses were very keen, and he could hear the misery and despair in this small voice from more than ten miles away.

With a flash of his figure, he walked forward, evading twice in a row, and came to the place where the crying came out without a sound.

This is a thatched hut. There is a man and a woman in the house. Their faces are old. They look like they are in their forties, or they may be in their 80s or [-]s. .

A man and a woman hugged a three-year-old boy tightly, with cloudy tears falling down like beads, and in the choking, the woman begged: "Let's run away, the farther the better, Xiao Gu is only three years old, he can't do anything!" If you don’t understand, you have to send it to worship God…”

"What god? That's a demon? You can't escape. Even if you escape from the monster's mouth, how can you escape from the eyes and ears of other people in the village? Once someone finds out, our family is doomed. Maybe the whole village will fall into the trap." In the monster's mouth."

The man spoke weakly, his expression gradually becoming numb.

"This is our destiny. There are 36 villages and towns in the south of Shepanling. Every year, 36 pairs of boys and girls will be paid tribute to the snake god. The purpose of offering tribute to the snake god is to ask it to protect us and other mountain people. It is easy to escape. It is nothing more than dragging Let's all die together."

"How about, let's ask Immortal Master Wuyun of Lingxi Village. Since he can negotiate with the snake god, why can't he let the snake god avoid the tribute? I think he is colluding with the snake god..."

"Shut up, do you want to kill everyone?"

"Xiao Gu will be eaten, and if he dies, he will die." The woman's hair was visible to the naked eye, and her eyes were red, like a ghost.

Zhang Kun stood quietly in the corner of the house like a shadow, his eyes were cold, his mental power swept across the whole village, and he saw another family facing the finale of life and death.

"It seems that the day of offering sacrifices to the gods has come every year, and every village has to send children. It has been like this every year for 30 years."

I don’t know if I don’t come out, but once I come out, Zhang Kun understands that in places where the dynasty’s force can’t take care of, the people’s survival depends not on the prosperous times, but on luck.
