Immortality: Start Cultivating Immortality From Pingshan Mountain

Chapter 96: Turtles in the Laobie River of the Yellow River

Bamoapu was still talking nonchalantly.

 Those last few sentences.

 Also explain something intangibly.

 That's why he has bumped into the river **** several times in the past few years while boating and walking on the water, but he is still in awe of it.

However, at this moment, Chen Yulou was already in a daze.

 If I remember correctly.

 Fuxian Lake is mentioned in one volume of Makino's Strange Stories.

Mirage zombie village, fake and difficult to distinguish.

 There is a sunken ancient city under Fuxian Lake.

 Trapped countless dead souls.

The bones were difficult to leave and gradually turned into rigor mortis in the water.

From this point of view, there is a huge difference between what Bamo said.

“The magic of round light? Or the universe in the mirror?”

Chen Yulou frowned slightly and murmured in a low voice.

 Ba Mo was so confident in what he said that for a while, even he did not dare to confirm whether this Yi Apu had encountered a mirage or if it was indeed the case.

 “The head of the ship, thank you for letting me know.”

“We are outsiders and don’t know much about the taboos here, so please be patient.”

Seeing that Bamo wanted to get up and leave.

 Chen Yulou quickly put away those messy thoughts.

Handed his hand towards him and said warmly.

 “It’s nothing to worry about, but...”

Bamo held his hookah behind his back and shook his head. He seemed to have thought of something again and hesitated before speaking.

“Next time if you encounter one again, be sure not to yell or scream, as this might startle the river god, or something could happen easily.”

 After saying that, he hunched over and walked away.

 Bamo is in his fifties.

However, being exposed to wind and sun all year round and traveling on rivers and boats made him look more than ten years older than ordinary people.

He has dark skin, a patch of white hair, and is not tall.

 But I don’t know why, but it can give people an indescribable sense of trust.

 Wait until he returns to the cabin.

In the blink of an eye, there were only six of them left on the deck. Looking far into the distance, the sky became blue again.

　　After passing that dangerous shoal, the water became much calmer and there were no more bumps as before.

Several people subconsciously glanced at the waves behind the stern of the boat.

Where is the shadow of the river god?

Even the red blood stains were washed away by the river.

Partridge Whistle secretly let out a foul breath.

I just feel that my anxious heart has calmed down a lot.

 But I can’t hide my guilt in my heart.

If the monster just now had really attempted to capsize the boat, it seemed that there would be no other option but to fight to the death.

 For him, this was an unforgivable miss.

 “Brother Chen?”

　　Secretly remind yourself that there will be no next time.

 He then spoke softly.

 “Let’s go down and talk.”

 Chen Yulou knew what he wanted to ask.

But there were people coming and going on the deck, so it was not a place to talk.

What’s more, he still has a few things to puzzle over in his own heart.

"good."

Partridge Whistle nodded.

The group no longer wanted to take a breather and quickly walked along the stairs back to the room on the second floor of the cabin.

 As soon as I sat down.

Their eyes all fell on Chen Yulou.

It can be seen that they are too curious about the mysterious figure that suddenly broke through the water.

“Shopkeeper, did you read it?”

Hong girl has a straightforward personality and always has something to say.

At this moment, seeing that the door of the room was locked and closed, and Kunlun was guarding the door, staring at the movement in the corridor outside, he immediately asked.

"yes."

 Chen Yulou didn’t mean to hide it.

　　He nodded slightly.

Boom—

 See him admit it.

The hearts of the five people, including Partridge Whistle, jumped sharply.

 “Then, what is that thing?”

The red girl frowned slightly. Perhaps she didn't even realize that there was a slight trembling in her voice when she spoke this sentence.

 “Shaped like a mountain, with amazing speed, and feeds on flesh and blood.”

 “There is a high probability that fish and turtles belong to the genus…”

 Chen Yulou sighed.

 Like talking to oneself.

Although he was born with night eyes, after he started to practice, he relied on the spiritual energy of green wood to nourish him every day, and his eyesight was far better than that of ordinary people.

 In addition to the moment when the black shadow appeared under the boat and swallowed the cow's head.

 The captain of the boat and a group of his crew members knelt on the ground and prayed silently. The rest of the people also lowered their heads and did not dare to look at each other.

 Only he glanced quickly.

 But the water demon was extremely cautious and as fast as lightning.

ˆ It should be that I noticed something.

 This will give up a boatload of blood food.

 He only swallowed a cow's head, then ran away and disappeared into the water.

The leader of the boat, Bamo, thought they were lucky.

 The river **** bless you.

 But in fact, only he knows.

That big underwater demon clearly acted like this because he sensed the spiritual energy on his body and... the aura of the phoenix species hiding in the dark, waiting for opportunities to hunt.

 If the ship is changed.

　　Today I am destined to die in the belly of a fish.

 Speaking of which, the joke I made with Yuan Hong almost turned out to be a prophecy.

 Under various circumstances.

 So, even he.

 In addition to the majestic evil spirit.

I only saw an island-like green back and a **** mouth with fangs.

 “Fish and turtle?”

 Hear this ambiguous answer.

 The group was obviously not very satisfied.

Some people wanted to speak, but Chen Yulou looked at Partridge Whistle and asked.

“Brother Dao, have you been to any big rivers and lakes?”

 Among them.

Other than himself, only this mountain-moving leader has the most knowledge.

Although he is not very old, he has been traveling around the world for almost twenty years.

 After all, he has been with the previous generation of Taoist monks since he was a few years old.

 Hear the words.

Partridge Whistle was obviously startled.

 But he immediately came back to his senses and knew that he probably wanted to use this to deduce.

 He nodded immediately.

 “Yellow River!”

“I have been to Taihang and Weishan, both mountains where the Yellow River flows.”

“Then have you heard any rumors about the water monster and river god?”

 As soon as I heard this.

 Chen Yulou asked immediately.

The Yellow River has been filled with countless mysteries and wonders since ancient times.

Partridge Whistle was lost in thought.

 It was many years ago that I went to the Yellow River to hunt for pearls.

 He was still young at that time.

 Can’t remember many things clearly.

 But now that Chen Yulou asked him, he did not dare to hesitate and recalled it carefully.

 Not long.

His mind moved, and a past event that had been buried in his memory slowly emerged.

 If I remember correctly.

That was more than ten years ago.

He followed his master deep into Mount Xiao to steal a large tomb of the Warring States Period.

 Unfortunately, it took more than three months to finally open the coffin, but nothing was found.

With no choice but to make other plans, the two of them could only make other plans.

So we took a ferry across the Yellow River and wanted to go to Mangshan Mountain in Luoyang.

 After all, since ancient times, the place with the most ancient tombs, apart from Qinling Mountains, is Mang Mountain.

However, before boarding the ferry, the old man on the ferry said a lot of taboos.

 Some people are confused.

 Just ask why.

The old man didn’t hide it, saying that there was an old turtle in the river that had lived for countless years.

 It usually sleeps in the mud at the bottom of the river, and only occasionally wakes up to look for food.

 Once it surfaces.

 It is as big as a rocky floating island.

He is the **** of the river.

It has a docile personality, but you cannot disturb it.

 Otherwise, when the river **** is angry, the whole boat will be thrown to the bottom of the river.

Of course, they did not see the legendary river **** when they crossed the river.

However, when they arrived on the other side and saw the river temple, they realized that the old man had not lied.

 The locals regard the old turtle as the river god. Every year they hold a festival to worship the river god, dumping three animals into the river to pray for good weather.

 It’s just that this rumor has been around for too long. He had almost forgotten.

 But now Chen Yulou suddenly mentioned it to him.

 “Are you an old turtle?”

Chen Yulou’s eyes flashed.

 His thoughts were suddenly brought back to the previous moment at the bow of the ship.

 About the identity of that black shadow.

this problem.

 He has actually been thinking about it.

 It's just that he never had an accurate answer in his heart.

But at this moment, after listening to the past events mentioned by Partridge Whistle, it seemed as if there was a pair of invisible hands in his mind, gradually pushing aside the fog, revealing the truth underneath.

“The Yellow River fights water, and mud accounts for seven of it.”

 “Mostly carps and turtles.”

“The water area of ​​Nanpanjiang River is vast and crystal clear, but it is not suitable for the survival of old turtles. However, the green back of the mountain top is very similar to that of the turtle.”

 He analyzed in a low voice.

 The context is also becoming clearer.

 The moment the words fell.

There were six people in the group, except for Kunlun who was staring outside and had no time to be distracted. There was also an old foreigner who looked slightly pale and was obviously not used to it. He didn't speak.

 Chen Yulou, Partridge Xian, Hua Ling and Red Girl.

Almost in unison.

 “Old turtle!”

 “Can’t be wrong…”

Chen Yulou's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but chuckle.

 From the body shape, scale insects such as dragons, dragons, pythons, and aphids can be excluded.

 Fish is possible.

 For example, the Iron-headed Dragon King in the Yellow River outside Gulan County.

 In fact, it is a strange species.

But that black shadow has no dorsal fin and gill cover. Without these two most prominent features, it is virtually excluded.

 And the turtle and the turtle are of the same origin.

 Coupled with what Bamo said.

It is almost certain that the identity of the big monster in the river is probably an old turtle who has cultivated Taoism.

 “How big is that?”

Thinking about the scene I saw from a distance before.

The dark shadow in the water is like a hill emerging.

Hua Ling couldn’t help but widen her eyes, her little face full of wonder.

“Mountain monsters and water monsters, how can we generalize them with common sense...”

 Looking at her innocent and cute appearance, Chen Yulou couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

"That's true…"

Hua Ling secretly stuck out her tongue.

The centipede at the foot of Pingshan can grow to several feet long. It seems that it is nothing for an old turtle that has lived for countless years to grow to that extent.

 guessed the identity of the black shadow in the water.

 The group of people breathed a sigh of relief.

 Otherwise, it will always feel like a stone is weighing on my heart.

What’s more, it will dare to appear again.

 Let’s not talk about the big killer of Nu Qingji, who is a phoenix.

 The two factions of Xiling and Banshan joined forces, so they would not be helpless and cause chaos in a hurry.

“Brother Dao, what do you think about the Fuxian Lake River God that the captain mentioned before?”

to be honest.

 Compared to the old turtle in Nanpanjiang River.

Chen Yulou was more interested in the abyss snake that Bamo talked about.

 In the world of ghosts blowing out lanterns, snakes seem to be born with a mysterious aura.

 The first is the snake god.

As one of the eight ancient gods, the Snake God possesses the power to destroy the heavens and the earth. However, it can also control the imaginary space, which means it has the ability to be immortal.

 The second thing is to see Agama.

 In the belief of the demon country, the snake **** is supreme, and it is the second one.

 It is the guardian of the ghost cave and Mahakala.

 It is extremely poisonous and will almost kill you if you touch it!

In addition, there was the rock python at Pingshan Mountain that was so frightened by the crow of the Angry Rooster that it hid in the mountains and did not dare to show its face, and the green-scaled giant python and the corpse of the ferocious python outside Zhelong Mountain where we were heading.

In the land of Guixu in the South China Sea, in the vast deep sea, there is a big sea snake that looks like a dragon.

There is also the golden-scaled anaconda in the crematorium of Baiyan Cave.

 Recall it at random.

 He can think of several.

 But even if he is a snake god, he at least has a rough impression.

 Not like the giant snake mentioned by Bamo.

Chen Yulou couldn’t even imagine what it looked like.

only…

 The words just came out of his mouth.

Partridge Whistle's expression suddenly became unnatural.

 Those amber eyes revealed a hint of incomparable complexity.

 Perception of something strange about him.

Chen Yulou was startled for a moment, and then suddenly came back to his senses.

Almost forgot.

The Banshan lineage has an indescribable psychology towards the snake god.

 At that time, the prophets of Zagrama gained some mysterious power by peering into the bones of the snake **** deep in the ghost cave, but at the same time... they were also cursed by ghosts for generations.

　　Had to leave the ancestral land.

 Having lived in a state of uncertainty for thousands of years.

Although Chen Yulou is not talking about it.

 But Partridge Whistle subconsciously thought of the snake god.

 “Brother Dao…”

 Looking at his lost expression.

 Chen Yulou couldn't help but blame himself.

His original intention was just to find out the origin of the Fuxian Lake River God, but he never expected that it would touch his heart.

but.

Partridge Whistle also got it wrong.

After all, to this day, few people in the world know about the Zagrama ethnic group, let alone such secrets as ghost caves and snake gods.

“What did Brother Chen say...Oh, yes, River God.”

"I heard that when a dragon walks on water and enters the sea, it turns into a dragon. Maybe... there is a dormant dragon python hidden under Fuxian Lake."

 Forcibly suppressed the turbulent thoughts in his heart, but he was obviously still a little lost.

Chen Yulou is not in a good position to continue.

 Just nodded.

“It’s exactly what Chen thought.”

"Well...I think everyone is tired. That's it for today. Have a good rest. There is still a long way to go."

Partridge Whistle is extremely smart.

How could he not understand? He hugged his fists with a slightly pale face.

 “Thank you, Brother Chen, for your understanding.”

  “It doesn’t matter.”

Chen Yulou waved his hand.

 Watching the three brothers and sisters leave.

“Shopkeeper, what’s wrong with him?”

Kunlun and Miss Hong were confused. Apparently they didn’t understand why the partridge whistle suddenly seemed to have lost its soul.

 “Maybe it’s not comfortable.”

"You two, don't be in a daze. It's time to sleep and practice martial arts. Go back."

It’s about the snake god, the Muchen Bead, and the curse of the ghost cave.

Chen Yulou couldn't explain it easily, so he could only find an excuse to fool him.

"oh…"

Kunlun and Miss Hong looked at each other.

 Then take orders and leave.

soon.

 Chen Yulou was the only one left in the room.

 Lie down with his head on his hands, but right now his mind is filled with the snake **** of Fuxian Lake that Bamo mentioned.

 Without any weariness.

How can I sleep?

  Simply got up from the bed again.

 Open the map and spread it flat on the desktop.

 There are two prominent routes on the map.

One is the direction of their current boat trip, pointing to Nanjian Tusi Mansion.

 The other one leads from Nanjian to the final destination of the trip, Tengyue Zhelong Mountain.

but.

 Him at this moment.

  But he didn’t care about the route.

 Instead, he stretched out his finger and lightly traced it on the map.

 Soon he clicked on one place.

 A line of small characters is reflected in the eyes.

 It is clearly Fuxian Lake.

 The journey is about six to seven hundred kilometers.

It's definitely not possible to take a detour right now.

But... when Zhelong Mountain is over, we can cross Dali and Lucheng and go to Fuxian Lake.

If it were really a water-walking dragon that transformed into a dragon.

The benefit to his practice is even more amazing than stealing a great treasure.

 “Dragon.”

“I don’t know if the Jiao Dan has been condensed…”
