Chapter 35: A Masterpiece of Succession
"It's quite possible that we should have had a relationship with humanoids, but in our cognition, there is never this memory or more or less information. West Monday said seriously.
"What do you think of the pattern on your body? Probably not the reincarnation of Nuzu, or the heir of Nuzu?" asked Gami
"I can't really answer that question at the moment, but maybe I really am," he joked as he got dressed.
"So what should we do now?" asked Caitlyn.
"We have to go to the underwater world again, then the only one you are alive is the dragon, the world below the turbid water layer, I'm afraid only it may know some things," Xi Zhou said
"You let us go and ask that dragon for news, are you burned in the West Zhou?" said Gami
"I think Xi Zhou is right, there should be a lot of places to explore in the underwater city, it may be related to unlocking the humanoid monster and the patterns on Xi Zhou's body, Xi Zhou, I'll go with you" Tashi finished and looked at Caitlin. Caitlyn nodded in agreement.
Seeing the two of them say this, Gami was anxious, and quickly made up for it and said, "I didn't say I wouldn't go."
Xizhou patted Tashi's shoulder and said, "I didn't say I wouldn't call you."
After a night's rest, Laika and his party once again came to the border of Luoshui Shenzhou. Without the sneering concerns, the rocks built fortifications for daily living near the border. LYCRA organizes personnel to carry out the distribution of living materials. This time, it seems that the Western Zhou Dynasty is ready to toss this undersea city upside down.
The four-man team once again began the expedition. West Monday pedestrians sneaked into the central plaza again. This time, Xi Zhouzai carefully observed the statue of Nuzu, and indeed saw the pattern on the chest of the statue that was almost exactly the same as the one on his shoulder. Xia Xizhou rubbed his hand against the pattern. Gami on the side smirked and turned to look at Tashi and Caitlin. Tashi shook his head, and Caitlyn turned her head away from him. Xi Zhou kept beating along the statue, and near the base of the statue, Xi Zhou found that the feeling of beating had changed, so he knocked it with his hand again and found that it was indeed different. Xi Zhou hurriedly beckoned everyone to swim over, and Xi Zhou pointed to the base of the statue with Gami, and made a hammer strike motion with his hand. Gami immediately understood, took out a hammer and a hammer from his backpack, Gami followed the place instructed by the Western Zhou, holding the hammer and pestle, and slammed the hammer, as a result, the whole city shook, a large number of sedimentary mudstone floated, the original clear and transparent Luoshui, suddenly became turbid, and the sound of the dragon was heard in the distance, the Western Zhou hurriedly grabbed everyone, hid in the house on the side of the street at the end of the square, only to see the dragon hovering over the city, unwilling to leave for a long time. It wasn't until the mudstone gradually settled that the turbid Luo water gradually became clear again, and the dragon slowly swam into the depths and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Could it be that this dragon has been guarding this underwater city?" Xi Zhou couldn't help but have this idea in his heart, it seems that we are really going to meet this big guy for a while. Xi Zhou pointed in the direction where the dragon disappeared, and instructed everyone to follow along, Tashi and Caitlin looked at each other, and the two swam over first, followed by Gami and Xi Zhou. The four of them swam for a long time, almost exhausted, and at this moment, Tashi's eyes lit up, it turned out to be the dark iron hammer that he had dropped during the fierce battle with the dragon before, and the feeling of being lost and regained made the whole team recover some good mood. Everyone continued to swim forward for a while. Finally found this behemoth. It seems that after the last Jiaolong was attacked by Tashi and Yu Scorn one after another, its attack, defense, and action power have been greatly reduced. However, to deal with such a big guy, the four of them are still a little weak. Coincidentally, Jiaolong found them, a dragon groan, a large amount of Luoshui accompanied by air waves, they were washed away, Xizhou was washed away at the same time, scuba and clothes were cut by hard Luoshui thorns, and his head was accidentally knocked out, and he passed out, and his life was in danger. Unfortunately, Jiaolong happened to attack in the direction of the Western Zhou with its bloody mouth open. Tashi waved his wings vigorously to speed up his march, but he was still out of reach, and the moment the dragon's head touched Western Zhou, Tashi knew it was too late, and shouted, "No." At the same time, the dragon rushed straight to the surface. Laika, who was standing on the shore, saw this amazing scene, and the Yuhuang guards and the people of the Diyan clan on the side were all amazed, and they saw Xi Zhou, lying quietly between the dragon's feet, as if he was asleep.
The dragon gradually approached the shore, and the Feather Emperor Guards made an attacking gesture. Laika made a file with her hands, meaning to let everyone wait and see. The dragon swam to the shore, lowered its head, and did not move. Seeing this, Laika understood what it meant, and called out loudly: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and save people" The left and right guards hurriedly ran over to remove Xizhou from the dragon's head. At this time, Gami, Caitlin, and Tashi also surfaced. Jiaolong looked at Xi Zhou, then at the three people behind him, plopped, splashed several feet of water, and dived under the water. Seeing this, Tashi was just about to volley, but was stopped by Caitlin: "It's important to save Xizhou first" So the three of them returned to the shore. The four of Laika gathered around Xi Zhou and took a series of rescue measures, but to no avail, so Caitlin pushed everyone away and performed a healing technique, and while Xi Zhou coughed up water in one breath, Caitlin suddenly fainted again. Tashi hugged the fainted Caitlin, probed her nose with his hand, and nodded, indicating that it was just an excessive mental drain and not life-threatening.
Xi Zhou coughed for a while before he came to his senses. Seeing Caitlin who fainted, Xi Zhou said uneasily: "What's wrong with her?" Gami replied helplessly: "In order to save you, I performed a healing technique, and my mental power was overused, but fortunately, it's nothing serious, and you can recover after a few days of rest." Xizhou was very ashamed, and Tashi said when he saw this: "It's no big deal, take advantage of your sobriety, quickly recall what happened at that moment just now, why you were lying on that dragon's head, and it sent you back."
"I don't know, I just remember that my clothes and scuba were torn, my brain was knocked out, my eyes were dark, I didn't know what was going on, and then I opened my eyes and saw you," Xizhou said
"This is a bit strange, does this dragon know you? Impossible, how old are you, your dragon is old enough to be your grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather. No, you shout twice at the water, maybe it will still come out," Gami said, pulling Xizhou with one hand and dragging him towards the river. Although Western Zhou was unwilling, he couldn't resist Gami's paranoia, so he reluctantly came to the shore. Gami said, "Shout, shout, try." Xi Zhou looked extremely reluctant, but he still shouted at Luo Shui a few times: "Shenlong, Shenlong, show up quickly." Then, there was silence, and only three crow cries were heard: "Quack." The crowd laughed. Western Zhou was very embarrassed.
But suddenly Xi Zhou seemed to remember something, and that was the first time he went to Futian City, when he rode Xia Miao's fire dragon horse. So Xi Zhou gradually calmed down his heart, closed his eyes, and sat cross-legged on the shore. The people and scenery around him gradually disappeared from Xi Zhou's head, leaving only him and this piece of Luoshui. Xi Zhou placed his palm above the water. On the calm surface of the lake, there is a hint of ripples. Gradually, the ripples became more and more urgent, and the breaking waves became bigger and bigger, and Xi Zhou opened his eyes. I saw the dragon breaking through the waves, surfacing and slowly swimming towards the shore. The crowd was amazed. Xizhou stood up, put his palm on the dragon's face, and touched his hand to the eye that Tashi had blinded. Jiaolong was touched in some pain, and moved his head. Xi Zhou asked with concern, "Does it hurt?" Jiaolong nodded. I apologize to you on his behalf, Xi Zhou looked back at Tashi, and then at Jiaolong. Jiaolong closed his uninjured eyes in acceptance.
Xi Zhou continued to stroke the dragon head for a long time. Xi Zhou took a step back and bowed deeply to Jiaolong respectfully. Jiaolong nodded, and quickly dived underwater.
The crowd didn't know what to do. Stupidly stayed there, while Xi Zhou also quietly looked at the water. Jiami couldn't hold it back, broke the silence and said, "Xizhou, where did you learn the ability, since you can communicate with Jiaolong?"
Xi Zhou came back to his senses and said: "Innate, I was able to communicate with Xia Miao's fire dragon horse before."
"I can testify to this, Xia Miao told me before, and in addition, Xia Qin also told me in his suicide note that Xi Zhou is not an ordinary person, so I don't feel very strange about everything just now," Laika added
"Both the fire dragon foal and the dragon belong to spirit beasts, since the Western Zhou has such ability, what an opportunity," Tashi said enviously
"Then what did you just find out about communicating with Jiaolong?" asked Gami impatiently
Xi Zhou looked around, and Laika understood what it meant, so he called the guards back and left, leaving a private space.
Xizhou said: "Jiaolong told me that this underwater city is not for living people to live in at all. ”
Puzzled, Garmi asked, "What does that mean, is it for the dead?"
Xi Zhou said: "You are right, this underwater city is actually a tomb."
"Whose tomb?" asked Gami, following closely
"Crossbow Ancestor!" Xi Zhou burst out
Everyone was stunned. "Crossbow Ancestor, is there really a person?" Garmi's eyes widened
Xi Zhou nodded.
"Then this dragon, is it a tomb guarding beast," Tashi took over the conversation.
Xizhou looked at Tashi and nodded with a smile.
"What's more, Xizhou, don't sell it, hurry up and tell us everything you know, tell us, I'm getting more and more interesting now"
