swallow a dragon ball

Chapter 3 The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish

The wind is like a mountain, and the rain is like a river.

In a short period of time, the entire vast land became violent and crazy, and even the water levels in the mountain streams began to rise sharply.

Yu Youquan, who was already young, seemed even more insignificant, forcing him to temporarily change his plan to avoid the wrath of heaven and earth.

Fortunately, he was lucky, and soon found a small rock crevice.

The space is not big, just enough to accommodate his small body, which makes Yu Youquan rejoice, it seems that the lack of food and clothing and stunted development are not all without benefits.

What surprised Yu Youquan even more was that shortly after he hid in the crevice of the stone, a little squirrel rushed in.

It's just that what it didn't expect at all was that its "safe haven" was occupied by a behemoth early on.

The little squirrel was so frightened that flax froze, and stood upright, like a groundhog that screamed at a certain sound every day in the previous life.

Yu Youquan saw it, and couldn't help laughing immediately.

Being able to hide from the rain in a "safe haven" with a cute little squirrel, God has treated him well!

Maybe it was because of the strong wind and rain, or because it didn't feel Yu Youquan's hostility, the little squirrel curled up in a corner of the rock, enjoying the rare peace nervously and excitedly.

This scene reminded Yu Youquan of the legend about the He family's unicorn!
Legend has it that Qilin of the He family accidentally fell into a cave when he was young.

An ordinary person might just die, but Hejia Qilin was not an ordinary person. Not only was he safe, but he also encountered a black goat inside.

Under the leadership of the black goat, not to mention escaped from danger safely, they even met a unicorn, and since then they have soared into the sky.

The Kaitian Clan became a sensation, attracting the head of the Jiuxuanmen to personally recruit disciples and teach him the "Golden Toad Watching the Moon and Swallowing Qi". His cultivation progressed rapidly, and he became a true disciple of the Jiuxuanmen.

The rumors are vivid and colorful, very similar to the fact that foolish men and women concocted all kinds of bizarre life experiences for some successful people.

Just like the ancient history books, when the emperor comes to the world, he will inevitably descend into the world with auspicious auspiciousness and red light, but those who are knowledgeable will basically not believe it.

but.

Yu Youquan knew that this rumor was probably true!

Before Tao Fuzi passed away, he left him a notebook, a scroll of ancient pictures, and some unique secret codes.

It was by comparing and deciphering the information on the map that Yu Youquan unexpectedly found the tunnel leading directly from Panlong Mountain to the Longmen He family.

Inside the tunnel, Yu Youquan also saw a large number of goat bones.

Yu Youquan even doubted whether the black goat in the legend of the He family unicorn was a sacrificial offering!

Of course, doubts are just doubts.

What made him even more curious was who Master Tao was and what his connection was with the Longmen He family!
In Yu Youquan's mind, the bits and pieces of how he used to get along with Master Tao came to mind, vividly still in his memory yesterday.

What impresses him the most is the swordsmanship, footwork and formulas taught to him by Master Tao.

Because Tao Fuzi taught too seriously, if there was something wrong in his study, Tao Fuzi would patiently correct it, which once made Yu Youquan suspect that it was some kind of peerless magic skill, so he practiced it with extra care.

but.

After many years of practice, he has never cultivated his inner breath, let alone any supernatural growth. Only then did Yu Youquan clearly realize that this set of swordsmanship is really an ordinary swordsmanship.

If there is anything extraordinary, it is that the dance is exceptionally beautiful!
Originally, Yu Youquan thought so, until he got the handbook left by Master Tao.

He guessed right, this set of sword techniques is a set of dances. The dance of sacrifices!

[Can I really communicate with the divine dragon that I don't know if it exists through this set of sacrificial dances? ]
Yu Youquan's eyes flickered.

There is apprehension, but more of it is anticipation!

That's right, there are dragons in Panlong Mountain, or the dragon is... Panlong Mountain!
The place names of Liulong Village, Longmen Town, Longtangou, Longxudu, etc. are not groundless!
For example, when Yu Youquan was a child, he heard his father talk about ancient times, and he heard a story about a fairy slaying a dragon.

It is rumored that there was an evil dragon in ancient times, who wanted to stir up wind and waves, flooded countless fertile fields and houses, and the world was upside down for a while, and the people were in dire straits.

At the critical moment, the immortal took action and knocked the evil dragon down to the mortal world, and then suppressed it with a pagoda.

The legend is solid and clear, but the world has never seen Longbao Pagoda in this town!

But regardless of whether the legend is true or not, Yu Youquan has to give it a try.

Because the place he was going to this time was indeed Longtan, and on the ancient picture scroll, what was marked here was Longan!

Roar!
In the wind and rain, there were roars of beasts from time to time, and occasionally some shadows of beasts could be seen scurrying against the heavy rain. Yu Youquan, who was looking directly at it, couldn't help turning pale.

The mountains in this world are indeed more dangerous than he imagined!

The torrential rain came and went quickly, about a cup of tea, the rainstorm stopped, and the full moon peeked out from the thick dark clouds again.

The endless silver light is falling, and the water droplets reflect the light, romantic and beautiful, full of poetic and picturesque.

From the crevice of the stone, the little squirrel rushed out without looking back.

Yu Youquan cheered up and started to hurry again in this night.

The mountain road after the rain was extremely difficult, even though Yu Youquan was extra careful, he even fell several times, luckily he was not seriously injured.

at the same time.

All the detectives who had just braved the storm and rushed to a private house couldn't help but want to curse!
Is this intentional?

After traveling for so long, everyone was soaked in the rain. Finally, we found a house that could take shelter from the rain, but the rain stopped!
For a moment, every policeman felt extremely unhappy!
Not getting out of the rain is worse than getting all of them wet!

"Boss, do you want to continue chasing?"

Everyone looked at Butou Luo again.

Luo Captou looked at the vast mountains and felt a little confused for a moment!

So Yu Youquan is really a young dragon?

First, the heavy rain blocked the road, forcing them to divert to avoid the rain. After this successful diversion, the rain stopped again!
Gollum!

Luo Butou, who was already somewhat superstitious, couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

If he is really blessed by God, if he continues to chase him, he will be acting against heaven, and he might be repaid!
At this moment, the gate of the small courtyard of the private house creaked open.

"The officials have worked hard, since you are here, why don't you come to my house to drink some hot wine to warm your body, so as not to catch the cold!"

The old man's words trembled, obviously a little scared.

mulled wine?

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.

In the era of extremely scarce food, the preciousness of wine is self-evident!

As long as it is not mixed with wine, it is a conscientious businessman!
Seeing that all his colleagues were greedy for alcohol, coupled with the idea of ​​"God bless" just now, Luo Butou immediately stopped insisting.

"Then I'll bother the old man!"

After Luo Captou finished speaking, he took out a piece of broken silver and forced it on the old man. Everyone was immediately happy.

Yu Youquan didn't even know how much disaster this rainstorm had blocked for him!

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of the second day.

The sun was shining brightly and the autumn air was crisp. The heavy rainstorm last night seemed to have never happened.

but.

Yu Youquan was half muddy and exhausted, but he clearly remembered everything about that rainstorm.

However, Yu Youquan's eyes are still extraordinarily bright!

Longtan, to be exact, is where "Longyan" is located, he has finally arrived!

Whether he loses or wins in this huge gamble, there will finally be a result!

Longtan was bigger than he imagined, about the size of a football field. The water inside was rippling and green as far as the eye could see.

The mud washed up by the torrential rain last night did not affect Wang Biquan in any way.

Yu Youquan sat down on the smooth bluestone, gasped for a few breaths, and then struggled to find the ancient scroll from the bag.

The next step is to follow the map to find out!
After repeated comparisons, Yu Youquan found the location of the mountains, trees, rocks, and small platforms on the map.

According to ancient scrolls, this small platform is essentially an altar!

It coincides with the principles of yin and yang, five elements and eight trigrams, standing on the altar, dancing the sacrificial sword dance with sincerity to communicate with the dragon god.

After a lot of effort, Yu Youquan successfully stood on the altar, and suddenly felt that the ancient scroll in his hand became hot.

Immediately, Yu Youquan's eyes suddenly blurred, and everything in front of him seemed to have double images.

This feeling was only for a moment, and then Yu Youquan felt that everything in front of him seemed to have changed!
Looking at the mountains, trees, and rocks, especially the hectare of clear water, it seems that a huge dragon's head is reflected on it!

After a brief daze, Yu Youquan couldn't help but be ecstatic.

He seems to have won the bet!
The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish, and Yu Youquan is looking forward to the rewards brought by this gamble!
With the Qilin Zhuyu of the He family in front, maybe he can become the real descendant of the dragon?
