I became famous by doing things.

I have always regarded the wild Taoist priest as my grandfather, even if he had a purpose for approaching me, but after so many years of teaching, I cannot pretend that nothing has happened.

The purpose was not pure, but I benefited from the process.

"Old man, don't be so pretentious. You said that if you don't succeed when you get old, you will eat and drink for free? If you really come to me, I won't help you? You are talking now as if I am stupid. In fifty or sixty years you will Let’s see which one of us is stupid.”

When the wild Taoist priest heard what I said, he was speechless by me, so he could only hum and said:
"Okay. So what do you want? This department can't give you any position externally..."

Although he was very strict with me when I was a child, he often couldn't win against me in arguments. At that time, he would always call me stupid and then pretend to be stupid and ignore me. Now I haven't seen him for so many years...

He still can't beat me in a quarrel.

"Then you have to give me money and wages, right? Can't you just let me work there for free?"

The woman with several big bags on her body heard me asking for salary and knew that the matter was settled. She hurried over and said:
"Of course I've prepared it for you. It's 2 yuan a month. Do you think it's okay?"

I did a simple calculation and found out that I earn between five and six hundred yuan a day, and occasionally take a big order, which means I only earn around 3 yuan a month.

I can’t do anything that a lion can do, so it’s okay if it’s not lower than my current income, right?

"3. If you agree, we'll sign the contract here. If you don't agree, just leave."

Without saying a word, the woman immediately called to draw up the contract. I sat there and shook my head helplessly. I am destined not to work in an office. I have rented this small office for so long. I really haven’t spent all the time here. Ten percent.

I was away during those four years, but I kept renting the house. Fortunately, it was not expensive here, and it wasn’t too painful to keep renting.

As a human being, you have to have a place to stay.

After the matter was settled, the wild Taoist priest and I high-fived each other, and the matter was settled.

I sat there waiting for the revised contract. Chang Jiuye stood motionless beside me. The sturdy corpse driver seemed a little unconvinced and took two steps forward...

Long Xuanji was always by my side. Seeing that the man was about to come over, he got a little angry and rushed out of my wrist, as if to make a move.

However, the wild Taoist priest rushed over and neutralized Long Xuanji's killing move with two blows. Long Xuanji returned angrily and stood next to me, transforming into her original appearance as a short-haired girl. The wild Taoist priest looked at me in surprise and said:
"Girl, you have a dragon fairy? It's... it's incredible. Do you know that this dragon has disappeared for many years. It is simply impossible for a dragon fairy to appear now."

Long Xuanji covered her dragon scales with her hands and took a step back from me unhappily. She probably didn't expect that her moves would be so easily neutralized by humans.

I couldn't save my face for a while.

I knew that this old man knew a lot of things, and it was hard for him to ask directly, so I yawned and acted as if he didn't care.

"Now that I'm waiting for the contract and I'm idle, tell me why this dragon became extinct. Why have I never seen a dragon before?"

The old man hummed and began to tell me about the extinction of the dragon clan. This was something he found when he was browsing ancient books. He said that originally there were many dragon gods, and there were dragons in the east, south, west, and north seas.

They all guard their Dinghai Shenzhen.

And their personalities are also different.

Dragons from the East China Sea are romantic, dragons from the West Sea are shrewd, dragons from the South China Sea are powerful, and dragons from the North Sea are cunning.

It just means that when the Age of Ending Laws began, the spiritual energy withered, and the dragons of the four seas were recruited to carry the fairy world to other places. So far, there are no dragons in this world.

When I heard this, I felt that it was not very true. All the dragons in the world were gone?
Is there no one left?

When Chang Jiuye and the others were alive, it belonged to a civilization that we didn’t know much about, and the Dharma-Ending Era had been around for nearly ten thousand years. So why are there so many images of dragons in recent dynasties...

That means that there is no inevitable connection between the Age of Dharma Ending and the disappearance of dragons. Wasn't it said at that time that if the Dragon King peed his urine in the river, fish and shrimps would become dragons? If the purebred dragons were gone, where would those miscellaneous dragons go?

I also want to understand something at this time. Even if this old Taoist priest is older than me, he will live a few decades longer than me at most. Even if he survives, he will not be able to live for a hundred years!
The time when the dragon clan disappeared is unknown, but it is definitely not the time of the End of the Dharma. However, within a hundred years, there are indeed no legends about seeing dragons anywhere.

There is nothing in grandma's notes about the extinction of dragons.

Except for Long Xuanji, I have never seen a real dragon, and neither has he.

It's just that he has read more books, so he can just listen to what he says and don't take it seriously.

It’s not that he lied to me or not.

It's unclear whether the book deceived him or not.

The wild Taoist saw me thinking, blew the dust from between my nails, laughed and said:
"It's really good. The little girl can think now. In the past, I was the one who said what was right. Now I can start to distinguish between right and wrong. In fact, I didn't say it completely. After reading it, I felt that it couldn't be like this. I must have said it back then. There was a massacre, but I don’t know what the details were. Maybe we’ll find out later. Where do you know this dragon?”

I roughly talked about the process of getting to know Long Xuanji without going into any details. After listening to this, the wild Taoist laughed and said:
"It's no wonder. The little carp would never have succeeded in leaping over the dragon's gate. Without your help, there wouldn't be this little dragon now."

I frowned as the wild Taoist told me about the carp leaping over the Dragon Gate. He had read in ancient books that when the spiritual energy was exhausted, all the places where dragons transformed into gods were closed.

After the Hualong Pond was closed, it slowly dried up because it was not running water.

When I went there there was only a place that looked like a pool, but there was not a drop of water in it.

The carp leaping over the dragon's gate is living water that cannot be dried up, so it remains in the human world.

In other words...

The current Yuelongmen is equivalent to a claw machine that has been adjusted.

No matter how many coins you put in, no matter how hard you try.

The success rate here is zero.

The wild Taoist priest looked at me with a look of disbelief on his face. He sat on the sofa and picked his ears and continued to laugh and said:

"Little girl, haven't you ever doubted it? Do you really think that ordinary people can answer Huang Pizi's questions dozens of times a year? Do you really think that it was a coincidence that you got to help this little dragon in the river? All coincidences really Is it a coincidence?"

"Huang Pizi wants to ask for your luck. Who are you? You can talk about luck dozens of times a year, but it doesn't matter? And there is that river. There is no way for living creatures to pass through the barrier. You What kind of body does it take to enter that river?"

I didn't answer. My grandmother and wild Taoist priests taught me all the knowledge I had since I was a child. I've been walking on that path since I was a child, answering Huang Pizi's requests for a title while walking. It's been like this for many years...

No one has ever told me that this thing is wrong...

I have never asked other disciples whether this is right, because this is what my grandma taught...

My grandma won't hurt me.

It suddenly occurred to me that I watched the carps leaping over the Dragon Gate with Zhang Duo and the others, and how all the little carps failed in the end...

Was their running to each other just a joke?
