251, Fire Dragon Ball
I have no doubt that I can now easily jump onto the steep cliff in front of me. It was as if his entire body had been completely reborn.
"Feng'er, tell the second grandfather quickly, what happened to you just now, what did you see underwater?"
We had just sat down in the Sleepy Dragon Pavilion, and the second grandfather couldn't wait to ask.
"Second grandfather, the waterhole here is really connected to the waterhole in the sinkhole," I said.
The second grandfather couldn't close his mouth in surprise.
He tried hard to explore, but he couldn't dive to the bottom of the pool, naturally he didn't know that there was a huge crack at the bottom of the pool. In the cracks, there is also a tunnel that is almost artificially dug by hand.
Naturally, it was impossible for him to know that there was still the corpse of a huge water monster lying quietly in that corridor.
"The two pools are actually connected," the second grandfather sighed sincerely, and then said, "Then what are you doing later?"
I said, "I found a fiery red bead in the tunnel at the bottom of the pool, and there is a huge snake bone buried under the ground where the bead is located. ”
"What kind of snake bones, you can say quickly," the second grandfather's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly asked.
I told him all about how I had picked up the beads and how I had found the snake bones.
After listening to this, the second grandfather was thoughtful.
After a long while, he said faintly: "Feng'er, I always thought that the Qianlong Yuan was just a legend, but I didn't expect that there was really a divine dragon living in it." ”
I shook my head and said, "Second grandfather, that's not a dragon, it should be Qiu, some people also call it Qiulong, it's a close relative of the dragon." If you want to cultivate into a true dragon, there are many difficulties, and you can't get it until thousands of years. ”
"Oh?" the second grandfather glanced at me with interest and said, "What I want to say is a legend that is spread very widely in Shennong Mountain for thousands of miles. ”
Legend has it that in a certain place deep in the Shennong Mountains, there is a true dragon in the sky, which calls for wind and rain and is omnipotent, and is the protector of the Shennong Mountains, blessing the wind and rain on a land. It's just that he has a special fetish, which is that he likes to eat small children. In the event of a drought, he will be sacrificed by virgins before he can go out of the mountain. This year, there was a great drought in the world, and the Shennong Mountains were not spared. People in dozens of nearby villages burned incense and prayed, promised him virgins and begged him for rain. The dragon brought them heavy rain as he wished. But the villagers who agreed to sacrifice repented, and they were reluctant to sacrifice their children to the dragon. One family even sent their children outside the mountain. In a fit of rage, the dragon rained down to punish the ungrateful mortals. This piece of rain is three years at a time. Everywhere in Shennong Mountain, a country of Ze, the people have all been reduced to fish and shrimp, and countless houses and fields have been flooded. The number of people who died in the torrential rain is countless. The dragon has committed a mortal sin, and it itself knows very well that sooner or later, it will be punished by heaven. On this day, when the punishment of heaven was coming, he died in a deep pool, and he did not know what to do with it. Later, in order to suppress its remnants, people built a strong pavilion on this waterhole and sent special personnel to guard it day and night. This pavilion is called the Sleepy Dragon Pavilion, and this pond is called the Qianlong Yuan. Some people say that the dragon is dead, while others say that it is still alive, but it is just that it knows its sins and hibernates under the bottomless pool. ”
Speaking of this, I suddenly understood that our Di family was the one who was sent to guard the pond at that time.
As a good materialist young man born and raised in Dragon Slaying Town, I am skeptical of this story.
If I hadn't seen the huge snake body with my own eyes today, I wouldn't have been able to believe this kind of nonsense.
But when the facts were in front of me, I had to believe them.
"You said it was dead?" The second grandfather sighed slightly: "It has a relationship with our Di family, Feng'er, I want you to fish up its corpse and bury it yourself, which can be regarded as a mental effort." ”
I nodded, thinking that what the second grandfather said was reasonable, so I prepared to dive back into the water again and fish up the huge snake bone.
The second grandfather hurriedly grabbed me and said, "Feng'er, don't be in a hurry, you tell me about the bead first." Do you know how long you've been underwater for a full hour? ”
I changed color slightly, I didn't expect that my breath-holding kung fu had reached this realm.
However, when I thought about it, I felt that it was the power of that bead.
It is very likely that it is the Inner Pill of the Dragon, and I accidentally ate that Inner Dan, so I inadvertently had the ability to hold the water for a long time.
I don't know if that means that from now on, I can walk freely below the surface of the water. I can't wait to give it a try.
Looking at the second grandfather's interested expression, I said, "I ate that bead, and then I felt that my body was very hot, and my internal organs seemed to be burning." Later, it was the Blood Tribulation Sutra that saved me, and it absorbed all the energy of that bead, and I was spared. I also saw images that only this giant dragon could see. I saw it coiled in the deep well at the bottom of the sinkhole, and the body of the pillar seemed to be drawing some kind of power. ”
The second grandfather said thoughtfully: "I heard your grandfather talk about this bead. ”
I asked curiously, "What did Grandpa say, what the hell is this bead?"
The second grandfather said: "This bead is called the Fire Dragon Ball, and legend has it that every time the dragon cultivates, it will spit out this bead and let it accept the sun essence and moon flower, and then swallow it into the body." This is the inner pill formed in the dragon's body. ”
I nodded, agreeing with Nedan's statement.
However, I have seen with my own eyes how the dragon attracts those so-called aura, and I know that those words that spit out beads to attract the sun and the moon are all made up by the ancestors.
Now I didn't want to explain anything, but when I stood up, I said to the second grandfather, "Second grandfather, I'll go and pick up that dragon body and show you." ”
"Okay, good," the second grandfather stood up excitedly, with a pious look on his face.
When I got to the edge of the pool, I threw a plop and jumped down.
Three times back and forth, so that I was familiar with this place, I quickly swam to the crack at the bottom of the pool, into the tunnel, I put my hand into the dirt, tightly grasped the dragon horn like a dagger, and pulled hard, a strong smell of earth, permeating the water.
The bottom of the water was suddenly cloudy.
The keel was slowly pulled out of the heavy dirt with all my might, much longer than I had originally predicted.
Holding the dragon's head, I quickly drilled out of the tunnel and floated upward.
