My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

"Could it be that in addition to the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin, even an old turtle like me will not be spared?" the Water Dragon King asked in horror.

Zhang Hao remained calm and slowly formed a mysterious seal with his hands. As a faint green light emerged, a drop of yin and yang essence appeared above the head of the Water Dragon King.

This drop of yin and yang origin emitted seven-color light and carried a holy and pure breath, which made the Water Dragon King immediately feel its extraordinaryness.

"This is..." The Water Dragon King's voice instantly became respectful, and his big eyes looked at the two people on the shore in confusion.

"Do you want it?" Zhang Hao asked indifferently.

Although what the Water Dragon King said before was unpleasant to hear, Zhang Hao did not blame him for it. After all, he didn't know Zhang Hao's true identity yet.

The Water Dragon King shook his huge head and said, "Master, what are your plans?"

Seeing the change in the Water Dragon King's attitude, Zhang Hao smiled with satisfaction. He waved his right hand lightly, and the drop of Yin and Yang Origin Power was divided into four parts, falling on the four corners of the Water Dragon King's tortoise shell.

With the invasion of the original power of Yin and Yang, colorful light surged all over the body of the Water Dragon King, accompanied by crackling sounds, obviously undergoing self-repair.

When the colorful light gradually faded, what appeared in front of Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin was a brand new giant turtle.

Although there are still some damages on the tortoise shell, it is a world of difference compared to before.

The Water Dragon King was so excited that his body trembled slightly. "May I ask who you are, Immortal Lord? I came to help you this time. What do you want me to do? As long as I can do it, I will do my best."

Zhang Hao frowned slightly: "The dragon energy leaking out of the river is not entirely your fault. After all, it was unexpected that the Zhenjiang dragon coffin was salvaged by the archaeological team."

He first affirmed that the Water Dragon King was not responsible, which eased the tension in the Water Dragon King's heart a little.

Zhang Hao's words made the Water Dragon King even more excited: "You have no responsibility in this matter, especially after the dragon energy leaked out, you were willing to use your body to block the dragon's eye, which shows that you have never forgotten your original intention. This matter deserves a reward."

After saying that, Zhang Hao waved his right hand lightly, and an invisible aura emerged in his hand, which turned out to be a slowly rotating hexagonal black seal!

A bixi is lying on top of the black seal, and relief carvings of evil spirits and the Lingyou Palace are carved around it, which are extremely exquisite.

A mysterious and powerful aura emanated from the hexagonal black seal, allowing the Water Dragon King to immediately understand Zhang Hao's identity.

"This is... the hexagonal black seal of the governor of the underworld! You are actually from the underworld! I am sorry for offending you just now, I hope the governor will forgive me!" The attitude of the Water Dragon King became more respectful.

Zhang Hao nodded gently, and cast his eyes towards the no longer calm river and the dark cloud-covered sky: "It seems that the dragon energy leakage this time is not simple. Before we start to solve it, I want to ask you a few questions, and I hope you can answer them truthfully."

"Ask me anything, Governor. I will tell you everything I know!" The Water Dragon King prostrated himself on the ground, and the whirlpool in the river behind him mysteriously disappeared.

"You said that the dragon energy leaked out because the archaeological team salvaged the Zhenjiang dragon coffin. Apart from this, are there other reasons that led to the instability of the dragon energy? Or are there other concurrent factors?" Zhang Hao's question hit the nail on the head.

The Water Dragon King was shocked, obviously knowing that Zhang Hao and the others had already grasped some clues.

Under the other party's questioning, he could no longer play dumb: "Governor, I actually have some information. But I am just the Dragon King in the branches of this river, and I am mainly responsible for the affairs within this river. I am afraid I am powerless to handle other matters..."

Zhang Qilin frowned slightly when he heard this. The Water Dragon King's answer was indeed impeccable.

As a creature of the water, he naturally could not care about the strange buildings halfway up the mountain.

"But I know that the reason why the dragon energy has always been unstable is because there is a strange energy on the hillside next to it that is constantly absorbing the dragon energy. This is also one of the reasons why the dragon's eye is unstable." The Water Dragon King added.

After Zhang Hao understood the cause and effect of the matter, he nodded gently: "What you said makes sense. I wonder what the situation of the longan below is now?"

"If the Governor doesn't mind, I can take you there to investigate." The Water Dragon King suggested.

"That's great." After saying that, Zhang Hao put away the hexagonal black seal on his head and stepped on the turtle back of the Water Dragon King.

Amid the rumbling thunder, a layer of lavender mist gradually rose on the back of the Water Dragon King, then gently wrapped Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin in it, and finally slowly sank into the river and disappeared under the surging waves.

Thanks to the protection of the Water Dragon King, although there were undercurrents at the bottom of the river, it had no effect on Zhang Hao and the others.

When they stepped onto the riverbed, the scene before them was far beyond their expectations. The riverbed was not as plain as they had imagined, but a huge oval ring, lying there quietly like a work of art carefully carved by the hands of nature. It was so large that its diameter was dozens of meters.

What is even more amazing is that the legendary dragon eye is located right in the center of the circle, as if it were a guardian angel specially placed by nature, exuding a mysterious aura.

When Zhang Hao saw this scene, he couldn't help but be shocked. The wonder and greatness of nature are far beyond human reach. Even the richest imagination can hardly fully describe it.

"Governor, the dragon eye is not far ahead. In fact, there is not only this dragon eye at the bottom of the river. Dragon energy occasionally overflows from other places. However, the dragon energy here is the most concentrated. This is where dragon energy gathers." While explaining, the Water Dragon King carefully led Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin and slowly landed on a small slope not far away.

The Water Dragon King had no choice but to choose this place to land. Its current strength was not enough to ensure the safety of Zhang Hao and the others in the area with the most dragon energy.

After all, they were only clinging to the back of the Water Dragon King at the moment, and it was difficult for them to respond quickly to emergencies.

The underwater world is full of dangers, and the dragon energy in the dragon's eye may erupt at any time. Its power is great enough to affect a person's fortune and even life. This can be seen from the scarred shell of the Water Dragon King after he surfaced.

Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin naturally understood the Water Dragon King's painstaking efforts and did not say much about it.

However, doubts soon arose in Zhang Hao's heart: "You mentioned before that the dragon energy in the longan has become extremely unstable, and it seems to be related to something halfway up the mountain. I wonder how you knew about this?" Zhang Hao's trip was to uncover the secret behind this.

If the magnificent building halfway up the mountain really hides an unknown secret as Zhang Qilin said, then the place connected to the dragon eye is undoubtedly the key. He will never allow any potential threats to exist, and he will eliminate or seal them no matter how great the price.

"Are you talking about this? I can take you to see. Although that place has lost most of its functions, there is indeed some connection between them. As for how to control and absorb dragon energy, I can't explain the principle clearly at the moment." The Water Dragon King pondered for a moment, then took the two of them and slowly moved to the valley on the other side of the dragon's eye.

It turns out that this elliptical ring is not completely closed. There is an obvious gap on its right side, which looks particularly abrupt and destroys the integrity of the ring.

"Dragon Qi is transformed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and is insoluble in water and fire. Therefore, once it leaks, it will have a profound impact on the surrounding environment and residents." The explanation of the Water Dragon King made Zhang Hao suddenly realize.

Indeed, dragon energy and water cannot mix. Although Longyan is in the water, once the dragon energy leaks out, the consequences will be disastrous.

"The dragon energy in the dragon's eye is unstable now, and this gap is the only way for the dragon energy to leak out. Even if I am a little careless, the dragon energy will surge out from here. This is why spiritual weapons often affect people around them." The Water Dragon King said this and couldn't help but sighed, "If the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin was still there, and I was guarding it personally, the situation might not be so serious."

The implication is that the Water Dragon King still has a grudge against humans for salvaging the Zhenjiang dragon coffin without authorization, but he also knows that as the guardian of nature, he cannot directly conflict with humans, which goes against his original intention.

Zhang Hao smiled awkwardly after hearing this: "Don't mind, Water Dragon King. The behavior of the archaeological team was indeed inappropriate. You are not to blame for this. Don't worry, I will give you an explanation after I find out the truth, and bring back the Zhenjiang dragon coffin as soon as possible to suppress the dragon eye again."

Upon hearing this, the Water Dragon King finally showed a relieved smile on his face. His huge head swayed gently, and he seemed quite satisfied.

Zhang Qilin, who was standing aside, glanced sharply around the gap, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Zhang Hao also noticed this and looked around again, with more questions in his mind: "This gap does not seem to be formed naturally, but rather man-made. Water Dragon King, what do you think of this? Or did this gap already exist when you were guarding the Dragon Eye?"

Considering that the history of the building halfway up the mountain is only two or three hundred years, Zhang Hao speculated that if the building is related to the gap, then the gap may not have existed two or three hundred years ago.

So he eagerly asked the Water Dragon King: "When did this gap appear? Or why did it appear?"

The Water Dragon King was speechless for a moment by this sudden question. After thinking for a moment, he answered: "It was a long time ago, and I don't remember it clearly. But in my memory, this gap does not seem to have existed since ancient times. As for its origin, I was still weak at that time and could not become the Water Dragon King. I just relied on the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin to absorb dragon energy and was asleep most of the time, so I didn't pay attention to it."

Seeing that the Water Dragon King could not provide more clues, Zhang Hao did not say anything more. Instead, he left the Water Dragon King's back with a faint gray-black light all over his body, as if he was wearing a layer of invisible armor, and slowly approached the gap.

The Water Dragon King wanted to stop him, but Zhang Qilin stopped him. "Let him go, we know what's going on." Zhang Qilin's voice was cold and firm. Although the Water Dragon King was worried, he had no choice but to give up.

After all, Zhang Hao holds a high position in the underworld and must have some extraordinary qualities. It would probably be inappropriate to stop him rashly.

"Okay then, but please be careful. The situation in the dragon's eye is complicated and changeable, and the dragon energy may erupt or become chaotic at any time. It is extremely dangerous to stand in the gap." The Water Dragon King did not forget to remind him. Zhang Hao nodded to show that he understood and continued his journey of exploration.

"Don't worry, I have a plan in mind." Zhang Hao turned and smiled at the Water Dragon King, then walked towards the gap.

Looking from a distance, the gap seems to be a trace left by nature inadvertently. However, when you really get closer, stand in front of the huge, abrupt gap, and look at the stones that have been polished over the years and become extremely round, Zhang Hao is almost certain that all this is definitely not the result of natural forces, but must be the result of human intervention.

Zhang Qilin and the Water Dragon King followed closely behind, quietly coming to the gap. Zhang Hao squatted down, gently picked up a round pebble, and played with it in his hands.

"It seems that the truth of the matter has surfaced..." he said slowly.

"This gap is definitely not natural, but man-made."

"Why are you so sure, Governor? The stones here are round, and the gaps appear quite natural, with no traces of human intervention." The Water Dragon King was still doubtful, and couldn't help asking as he looked at Zhang Hao's determined eyes.

The reason why he was so persistent in exploring the cause of the gap was that he himself had been staying in these waters for too long.

If all this was truly man-made, then he would undoubtedly feel even more saddened by humanity's self-destructive behavior.

However, at this moment, they have a more important mission - to uncover the shocking secrets behind the building.

Therefore, Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin did not dwell on it too much.

"The reason is very simple," Zhang Hao pointed to the round stones nearby, "You see, although the overall width of the gap is not large and the fracture has become rounded, there are still some sharp fractures near the outside. This shows that when the dragon energy first passed through, this place was not so round, but was caused by the repeated erosion of the dragon energy later."

When the Water Dragon King heard this, his expression changed unpredictably.

"If it is true as the governor said, then why did they do this? The leakage of dragon energy would be a disaster for the surrounding residents, not to mention the wide range of its impact..."

"You don't understand how selfish people can be in order to achieve their goals." Zhang Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Human selfishness and greed are truly unbelievable and endless. It is understandable that the Water Dragon King is puzzled by this.

"Then what should we do next? The dragon energy is difficult to suppress, and the Zhenjiang dragon coffin is missing. Even if the governor can find it, it will take time..." The Water Dragon King became more and more worried.

If the gap was really man-made, then the problem would be much more complicated than they imagined.

"The gap cannot be repaired artificially. The impact force of the dragon energy is extremely strong. It must be trapped in a complete circle. This gap will be quickly washed away even if it is filled with the strongest material." Zhang Hao analyzed, "What we need to do now is to track the leaked dragon energy and find out where it goes."

Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin exchanged glances, and Zhang Qilin began to search carefully along the gap. The Water Dragon King looked at the dragon eye worriedly, fearing that it would suddenly explode and hurt Zhang Hao and the others.

Zhang Hao came to the location they had discovered before, and saw the outside of the gap, (End of this chapter)
