Chapter 36: Who's Playing Prank?

Perhaps because of human fishing nets, four-legged pythons are very afraid of humans. Zhang Daoran didn't know if this strange creature had suffered at the hands of humans. Seeing Zhang Daoran chasing after him, he desperately twisted his body and swam forward as if he was running for his life.

Zhang Daoran, who was chasing behind, found that this anaconda was full of suspicions. Zhang Daoran had never seen a dragon or a dragon, but he also knew that the dragon or a dragon flying or swimming in the water should be up and down and twisting. Only snakes and pythons twist their bodies from side to side......

This four-legged python has evolved into a dragon, and it should swing its body up and down...... Not only that, the limbs of the four-legged python are very stiff, from the appearance to the present, Zhang Daoran has not seen any movement in the limbs of this four-legged python, and has always bent forward slightly, even if it touches the aquatic plants, there is no movement......

Puzzled in his heart, Zhang Daoran did not approach rashly, for mysterious creatures, for large underwater creatures, Zhang Daoran felt that it was better to be cautious......

I don't know how long, Zhang Daoran didn't know how far he swam out with the four-legged python, the speed of the four-legged python became slower and slower, and it disappeared into a pile of rocks. Zhang Daoran cautiously approached the rocks, and was suddenly stunned.

"It's ......"

There is no pattern in the stones, the stones are about the same size, as if they were carved by hand...

Looking at the bottom of the lake, there is not only this rock, but a large area... The area is huge, and the radius is several miles.

"This is an underwater ancient city!"

The outline of the ancient city can be faintly seen. Zhang Daoran went upstream, looking down from above, it was really an ancient city that had been turned into ruins.

The foundation of the ancient city is vaguely recognizable, and if you don't look closely, you think it's a mound at the bottom of the lake.

"It's a pity, it's been too long, the size of the city is not large, and most of the walls built are also made of loess tamping, soaked in the lake, and all collapsed......"

Swimming through the ruins, you can see some traces of houses in the city, Zhang Daoran stopped on the foundation of a recognizable house, and shook his head: "I don't know how many years this ancient city is ...... years ago."

"Looks like someone has already been here......"

After swimming back and forth above the ruins of the ancient city, Zhang Daoran saw a lot of footprints and palm marks, and even trachoma in some places. I felt a little disappointed in my heart: "Someone has come, it means that something valuable should be dug up......"

Zhang Daoran saw a lot of traces of artificial turning or excavation, looked around, and found nothing valuable. Eventually, he shook his head and gave up the idea of treasure hunting.

Within a radius of several miles from the ruins, Zhang Daoran did not see a single dry bone, which shows that people had moved away before the city was flooded, and it was not a sudden disaster from the sky. Even if you go on a treasure hunt, you can't find any gold and silver treasures.

"It seems that the knowledge of archaeology in my previous life has been returned to the teacher......"

I wanted to be able to see something from the ancient city with my own profession, but Zhang Daoran smiled dumbly: "Poor Dao is now a Taoist priest...... Leave the matter of archaeology to the archaeologists. ”

"Hey..."A pat on the head: "I almost forgot about ...... business"

Zhang Daoran searched around and found the pile of rubble that the four-legged python had gotten into. There were crawling marks on the mud, as well as a few scratches. The tail of the four-legged python can still be seen through the cracks in the rocks.

Sensing the danger, the four-legged python drilled inside.

Zhang Daoran thought of a way, how to make the four-legged python come out, and felt a black shadow pass overhead. Raising his head, Zhang Daoran raised his mouth: "What a big catfish......"

The black shadow is three meters long, the thickness of a basin, and a bucket-like head...... I am swimming towards here.

With a kick of his legs, Zhang Daoran drifted again. Catfish are carnivorous fish, and catfish, which are more than three meters long, have become a threat to humans. In the water, there is a world of fish, and Zhang Daoran does not dare to take risks.

"I didn't expect such a large fish ...... in a freshwater lake"

Zhang Daoran floated to the side, but the catfish didn't plan to let go of Zhang Daoran at all, and the catfish quickly pounced on Zhang Daoran.

"Think Poor Dao is really afraid that you won't succeed?"

With a cold smile, Zhang Daoran no longer dodged. Instead, he floated quietly in place, staring at the catfish that swam quickly. When the catfish opened its big mouth and attacked, Zhang Daoran's body sank and went under the catfish's belly. With a stretch of his palm, he slapped it on the belly of the catfish......

A stream of blood floated out of the gills of the catfish, and Zhang Daoran's palm could be smashed even if it was a boulder, and the catfish's stomach was almost smashed, and he died directly.

"Poor Dao always thinks that he is an ordinary person, but Poor Dao is no longer ordinary. "The instinct of human beings is to seek good fortune and avoid evil, and Zhang Daoran is no exception. So when I saw the big catfish, my first reaction was to dodge, instead of thinking of my own strength, if it wasn't for the catfish who was looking for death and refused to let Zhang Daoran go, Zhang Daoran would not have been aroused.

The big catfish was slapped to death by his own palm, and Zhang Daoran had confidence. Looking at the four-legged python in the rocks, he was motionless in the rocks, and reached out to grab the tail of the four-legged python and pulled the four-legged python out.

The four-legged python was in good spirits, without much vitality, and was scarred all over. Underneath the white scales that have fallen off, a blue and yellow pattern is revealed.

With a moving expression, Zhang Daoran said in his heart: "Could it be that he is molting?"

You can't shed the white scale armor when you molt, so replace it with green and yellow scale armor...... Looking at the four legs of the four-legged python again, the distance was so close that Zhang Daoran almost couldn't help but scold: "Who is this prank?"

The white scales are noticeably large and irregular, artificially glued to them. The four legs of the four-legged python are not grown at all, and in the abdomen of the four-legged python, the four legs have obvious artificial marks, and the four legs are glued on......

Reaching out and pinching all four legs, it was a soft plastic. The workmanship is very realistic, and you will definitely believe it from a distance.

"Fishing Line ......"

If you look closely, the python's neck is tightly strangled with a transparent fishing line......

The fishing line collapsed very tightly, Zhang Daoran looked up along the fishing line, and a small boat was floating on the water.

This is a dragon that has been artificially used as a means of fake, dressed as a dragon. Disappointed to the extreme, Zhang Daoran felt disgusted by human pranks.

Quietly approaching the water, the boat was empty, and sure enough, the other end of the line was tied to the fishing boat. Zhang Daoran returned to the bottom of the lake and helped the python take off the fishing net, and the fishing line around the python's neck was cut. Carefully help the python remove the fake scales, and the four legs are also torn off. Dragging the big catfish, he turned around and swam towards the island in the middle of the lake.

As for whether the python is dead or alive, Zhang Daoran is in no mood to care.

Although he harvested big catfish and discovered the ancient city at the bottom of the lake, Zhang Daoran was in a bad mood. I thought I could really see the dragon, but I didn't expect it to be all fake. I wanted to find traces of cultivation from this evolved python, but in the end it was a failure.

"The poor road has been tricked ......"

Coming with hope, and finally leaving with loss.
