However.

The process of cultivating from a python to a蛟 (jiāo, a mythical dragon-like creature) is extremely long.

To be precise.

It takes at least two hundred years for a蟒 (mǎng, python) to transform into a 蚺 (rán, a large snake), and it takes at least a thousand years for a 蚺 to cultivate into a 蛟.

As for becoming a dragon, that is even more illusory.

The so-called Dragon Locking Wells mostly lock 蚺.

More powerful ones can lock 蛟.

The difference between 蚺 and 蛟 is that 蛟 dragons have four feet with three claws each, and horns on their heads.

That is, horns grow out of the bumps on the head of the 蚺.

In fact, for ordinary people, 蚺 are already extremely rare to see.

Basically, only children in the deep mountains might have a chance to see one by chance.

As for 蛟, they are even more legendary.

Even the people of the 749 Bureau can't say they've all seen 蛟.

As for dragons...

They are even more ethereal.

It is said that 蛟 need to undergo tribulation to become dragons.

Moreover.

Dragons are also divided into different ranks.

The newly tribulation-passing 蛟 doesn't actually change much in appearance, only its four feet with three claws each will evolve into four feet with four claws each, its scales will become harder, and its aura will become stronger.

At this time, it is indeed a dragon, but it is a Horned Dragon!

Many people do not consider Horned Dragons and Winged Dragons to be true dragons.

Because even at the level of Winged Dragons, most of their abilities are actually brought about by physical evolution.

For example, rainmaking is actually just having a large enough displacement to form small-scale rainfall.

Including the flight of Winged Dragons, relying on wings to fly still has a certain gap from the true dragon in people's understanding.

Only by taking it a step further.

Can it be considered the truly recognized dragon in legends.

That is to undergo another thunder tribulation, and the wings dissipate.

The dragon head is completely formed, and it can soar through the clouds and drive the fog, summon wind and rain without the aid of wings. This is the 【Dragon】 recognized by the public.

After all.

What kind of dragon is it if it can't soar through the clouds and drive the fog, summon wind and rain?

Just look at Zuo Tianyang and you'll know.

Just because there is a dragon-shaped phantom in his left eye, it made him the current director of the 749 Bureau.

And Lin Tianhao had seen before that the dragon-shaped phantom in Zuo Tianyang's left eye should be a true dragon!

A dragon that can soar through the clouds and drive the fog, summon wind and rain!!

"Moo—"

Just then.

A sound like a cow's roar was transmitted.

This sound had extremely strong penetrating power and was very high-pitched.

Taoist Yexin and Zuo Tianyang exchanged glances. Although the sound was like a cow's,

the high pitch of this sound was definitely not something an ordinary cow could compare to.

Lin Tianhao's expression also changed slightly, because according to his understanding, the sound of a dragon... seemed to be like this.

Could there really be a real dragon here!!

A bold but absurd idea emerged from Lin Tianhao's mind.

"Go."

Zuo Tianyang immediately quickened his pace.

Lin Tianhao and Taoist Yexin also quickened their pace and ran towards Aolong Village.

Because Aolong Village is located in a mountain depression, the village houses are relatively concentrated.

Lin Tianhao had roughly seen it when he was on the mountain.

Aolong Village mainly has two main roads, one horizontal and one vertical.

The underground river extends from the end of the longitudinal road to the cliff below.

Everyone quickened their pace and hurriedly passed through Aolong Village.

Lin Tianhao deliberately observed Aolong Village.

Aolong Village is divided into four areas by these two roads, one horizontal and one vertical.

Because the village is not big, Lin Tianhao also discovered something while running vertically.

That is, the village is not big, but each of the four areas has a relatively large building.

These four buildings are all in the center of the four areas. Because they were running in a hurry, Lin Tianhao did not completely see these things clearly.

Lin Tianhao's own physique was not good, and it was his fair-weather friend who helped him a little, so that Lin Tianhao could keep up with their pace.

Soon.

Everyone came to the cliff behind Aolong Village.

In front of this cliff, there is a small lake.

It's not quite accurate to call it a small lake, it's just a slightly larger fish pond.

At this time, the water level of the fish pond has dropped, and you can see a deep cave under the cliff.

This fish pond leads to the depths of the cave, and you can't see the end at a glance.

"This is the entrance to the underground river."

"People in Aolong Village used to fetch water here and fish here. The water was inexhaustible, and the fish could not be caught."

"Later, through research, it was discovered that there is an underground river under this cliff. We don't know the direction of this underground river."

The burly middle-aged man said seriously:

"We sent the situation here to the geological research team. Their conclusion is that the water quality here is completely different from the Black River and the Huai River."

"It is even different from some known small rivers in the Qinling Mountains. It is very strange, and they have not given any constructive opinions for the time being."

The burly middle-aged man spoke seriously, but Zuo Tianyang, Taoist Yexin, and others didn't pay much attention to his words.

Their eyes were all focused on a little loli in a long dress and bare feet at the entrance of the underground river.

"Xiaoduo, what happened just now?" Zuo Tianyang asked.

However.

The woman in the long dress and bare feet kept looking in the direction of the underground river, without speaking or making any movements.

She stood there as if she was frozen, without moving at all.

"Not good."

Taoist Yexin jumped out, grabbed the little loli in the long dress and bare feet, and directly pulled the little loli back from the edge of the underground river.

The little loli who was pulled back still did not respond. Her pupils were dilated, and her face had shock, excitement, and a little... fear.

The whole person's expression was too strange!!

Excitement and fear, these two expressions appeared on one face at the same time, no matter how you look at it, it was weird.

More importantly.

The little loli's eyes were wide open, and her pupils were also dilated, and there was no color in her eyes.

She had been maintaining this expression, and the whole person was motionless, not knowing what happened.

Seeing this scene.

Taoist Yexin immediately grabbed the little loli's wrist.

"Pulse is normal, breathing is normal, body temperature is normal..."

Taoist Yexin's face showed a look of astonishment. He pinched his fingers with both hands and raised his hand to wipe over his eyes.

"The three lamps of heaven, earth, and life have not been extinguished, and the three souls and seven spirits are all in the body without problems."

Taoist Yexin patted the little loli's shoulder and called softly:

"Xiaoduo, Xiaoduo..."

However.

The little loli was still motionless, just maintaining her strange expression.
