Chapter 1: Ying Long
Walking on some rugged mountain roads, He Jin looked at the sun still hanging in the sky, and the sun at one or two o'clock in the afternoon was the time when the sun was the most poisonous.
Fortunately, it's not far from the place that the old Taoist master said.
"It's so hot...... He Jin climbed over a mountain beam, and finally saw a dilapidated building, a bit like a Taoist temple.
Looking at the building halfway up the mountain, He Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and then lay down in the shade of a tree like a dead dog, rested for a while, and then walked slowly towards the building.
Wangshan ran a dead horse, and an hour later, He Jin finally came to the building, sat on the ground without any image and rested for a while, He Jin recovered some energy, and then looked at the building.
How to say it, this building is a bit rough, there is not much shape, the whole is built of stone, but after a long time of wind and rain, the stone can not see the original color, black paint.
He Jin looked at it for a while, and then pushed open the door that had been sealed for a long time, the stone gate was quite thick, and it was a little laborious to push.
"Poof...... As soon as he pushed the door open, the dust on it fell, and it happened to fall on He Jin's head, and He Jin, who was defenseless, was suddenly dirty.......
In the summer, He Jin himself was sweating, and as soon as the dust fell up, He Jin suddenly became dirty, like a big cat.
Wiping the dust on his face, he didn't expect it to become dirtier, He Jin spat on the ground: "Bad luck, I don't know what the old Taoist master asked me to do here!" ”
Speaking of the old master, He Jin missed it a little in his heart.
It is said that when He Jin was very young, an old Taoist priest who was famous in all four miles and eight towns fooled He Jin's parents when he passed by his house, and directly took He Jin to the Taoist temple in the mountains for fostering.
As for what he said, it is nothing more than that He Jin has a catastrophe in his life, so cloudy. He Jin's parents didn't have much knowledge at that time, and the family was poor, so it was very troublesome for the three children to support, so they asked the old Taoist priest to take He Jin away from the mountain and raised him for more than ten years.
During this period, He Jin didn't have the idea of going home, but after years of not seeing him, although his family had feelings for him, his feelings were not as deep as those for his younger brothers and sisters, so He Jin always felt a little estranged from his family.
He Jin finally chose to stay in the Taoist temple, the old Taoist priest worked tirelessly to feed He Jin, and did not conformist to train He Jin into a god stick Taoist, but trained He Jin from a little boy to a college student.
In a way, it was his parents who gave birth to He Jin, but the old Taoist priest had the grace to raise He Jin.
Later, when the old Taoist priest was old, he went. Before he died, the old Taoist priest finally told He Jin all the secrets clearly.
The old Taoist has a long heritage, as for how long, even the old Taoist himself is not clear, because after the Five Hu Chaohua, the invasion of the Mengyuan Dynasty, the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, etc., the old Taoist priest has also changed his name and surname many times, and gradually, even the original name has been forgotten.
Anyway, according to the old Taoist priest, his lineage at least originated from ancient times, for such a lofty statement, He Jin is a little scoffed, when did Taoism rise? In ancient times, was there Taoism?
The old Taoist priest couldn't say one, two, or three, and was always stared at by He Jinqi's blowing beard.
As for why He Jin was raised, first, because He Jin's family was poor at the time, very poor, and it was very difficult to raise three children; Second, the old Taoist priest is not young, due to the campaign to eradicate the cow, ghost, snake and god decades ago, so that the old Taoist priest has not found a successor for decades, seeing that this vein is about to be broken, the old Taoist priest quickly found a way to find a child as a successor.
So after coming and going, the old Taoist priest received He Jin to the door, as for the door, the old Taoist priest did not discipline He Jin much, the Taoist book must be read, and he also learned some fists and feet, and the others did not force He Jin.
When the old Taoist priest left, while handing over the Taoist temple to He Jin, he also gave He Jin a very quaint map, drawing a place in a mess, which the old Taoist priest called the birthplace of their lineage, and told He Jin to find this place.
That's why this time He Jin got into the deep mountains and old forests alone, you must know that He Jin is at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, this year, although many places have been developed, including the periphery of the Qinling Mountains, but the depths of the Qinling Mountains are still deep mountains and old forests, and few people have visited.
When Lao Dao died, He Jin had just finished the college entrance examination, and it had been four years since then, and the pain caused by Lao Dao's death had also dissipated a lot. In the four years of college, He Jin did not stay idle, usually using satellite maps to query, during the holidays to go to Qinling to explore, a few years later, he completely deciphered the quaint and abstract map handed over to him by the old Taoist.
It just so happened that he was graduating from college this year, and He Jin didn't even look for a job, so he applied for an early defense in May on the grounds of physical problems. After the defense, I immediately followed the map I found and began to explore the mountain.
Now, it has been ten days since He Jin entered the Qinling Mountains.
If he hadn't grown up in the mountains, I'm afraid He Jin would have finished playing long ago. Fortunately, He Jin was not disappointed this time, and He Jin finally found the birthplace in the mouth of the old Taoist.
Wiping off the ashes that fell on his face, He Jin, who was still a little hangy just now, his face became solemn. When he first pushed the door, He Jin didn't pay much attention to it, but after pushing the door in, He Jin found that the entire building was actually made of stone.
This is the deep mountains and old forests, He Jin is so troublesome to come in alone, in ancient times, the cost of constructing such a building will definitely not be less.
What's more, there is no trace of connection between the walls and the roof of the building, as if it were carved from a single stone.
There must be a problem, there must be a problem!
He Jin's scalp was a little numb, both excited and frightened.
Slowly pushed the door open, and the panoramic view of the room was displayed in front of He Jin, except for a statue, there was nothing.
Is this the birthplace?
Looking around the week, there was nothing else, He Jin couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.
Taking two steps forward, He Jin carefully looked at the stone statue in front of him, the stone statue also seemed to be carved in one piece, the overall style was relatively rough, and the most important thing was that the statue was not a person at all, but an indescribable monster.
It looks like a mutated crocodile, with a very large head, but its nose, eyes, and ears are relatively small, and most importantly, it has two wings, so it is impossible to tell what it is.
The most important thing is that the people who are more widely circulated in Taoism are characters, and He Jin knows a little more about this, but He Jin knows less about animals.
Although the statue looks quite old, it is delusional to want to transport it out in this deep mountain and old forest.
Sighing, He Jin took off a silver-clad stone pendant from his neck, and removed the silver ornament on it, revealing the round beads inside.
This round bead is left to He Jin by the old Taoist priest before he died, it is simple and unpretentious, it is not a perfect circle, only a few simple carvings, if it is not for the old Taoist priest solemnly handed over to He Jin, He Jin probably thought that this was a stone picked up casually on the ground.
"Dead old man, dead old man, I've finally found the birthplace you said, there's nothing here. And the stone you gave me doesn't seem to be of much use. He Jin lay on the ground a little tired, and he had traveled long distances for more than ten days to find this birthplace.
Now after finding it, there is nothing inside, all the thoughts in his heart are empty, He Jin's backlog of more than ten days of exhaustion burst out, indescribable exhaustion, lying on the ground and not wanting to move.
After lying down for a while, He Jin smiled bitterly, and when he was about to get up and leave, the corner of his eye accidentally glanced at the head of the statue, and the whole person was stunned.
Got up from the ground with both hands, He Jin trotted directly to the front of the statue, stared at the forehead of the statue seriously, and his heart jumped up excitedly.
Between the two eyes of the statue, there are a few subtle dents, and on the stone given to He Jin by the old Taoist priest, there are several lines that protrude, which coincide with the dents.
The patriarch is above! He Jin muttered in his heart, held back the excitement in his heart, and carefully pressed the bead in his hand on the dent.
There was a soft "click", and the stone carving's eyes blinked, looking straight at He Jin.
Even though the stone-carved eyes had no pupils, He Jin could feel that these eyes were looking at him!
He Jin shuddered, the cold hair on his back stood up directly, and the tears were about to come out, Lao Dao, is this really the birthplace of our vein?
Just as He Jin was about to flee in the wilderness, two colorful rays of light shot out from the statue's eyes, shooting directly into He Jin's eyes, and He Jin lost consciousness as soon as he saw a flower in front of his eyes.
Then, He Jin's body floated strangely, floating in mid-air, and among the statues, colorful lights continued to pour out like flowing water, pouring into He Jin's body.
With the flow of colorful brilliance, the statue gradually became smaller, and finally, at a certain moment, the statue was directly shattered into powder, not only powder, but also the entire building was destroyed.
He Jin's body slowly fell to the ground, and the colorful brilliance was like an eggshell, wrapping He Jin.
It wasn't until the next morning that He Jin woke up, even if he was lying naked on the ground, He Jin didn't care at all, his eyes were a little dazed.
He Jin was digesting the information that appeared in his mind.
During the period of the Yellow Emperor, the Yanhuang tribe and the Chiyou tribe fought a war, and the one who killed Chiyou and Kuafu was Ying Long. However, Ying Long's injuries were too serious, and the energy consumption was too large, so he lived in a remote mountainous area to heal.
Then in the Dayu era, the flood struck, and Ying Long, who was still recuperating, came to help, consuming all the accumulated energy.
This time, Ying Long didn't even return to the south, and after lying dormant in the Qinling Mountains, ** collapsed, and his soul fell into a deep sleep.
Dayu felt the kindness of Ying Long, took out the essence of Ying Long's body, and then handed it over to his cronies, traveled all over the world to kill rare birds and beasts, used dragon balls to absorb the power of these rare birds and beasts, and waited for the absorption to awaken Ying Long's soul and help Ying Long reshape **.
After the Yu era, the descendants of the cronies are still fighting for the dragon, but time has passed, slowly, due to the loss of information and the changes of the times, these descendants have to change their faces and rely on the name of Taoism.
After a long time, he even forgot about Ying Long.
The last time, when this vein came to the birthplace, it was still the Tang Dynasty, and the energy absorbed by the dragon balls was not too much, and the heirs at that time had to leave the Qinling Mountains and continue to swim. However, the ancestral training became clear, and that was to find an opportunity to return the Dragon Balls to their place of origin.
It was passed on to He Jin's generation, just as the old Taoist priest asked him, that is, to send the stone beads to the birthplace.
He Jin did come, and the Dragon Ball also brought, and there was a lot of energy in it, but the key thing was that Ying Long couldn't hold on, and there was a long-term lack of energy support, so that Ying Long's soul gradually dissipated.
The soul oil runs out, and even if the body regains strength, it will die quickly.
So after He Jin brought the dragon balls this time, Ying Long reluctantly passed on this information and some knowledge to He Jin, and then fused these dragon balls into colorful energy and entered He Jin's body.
As for Ying Long, he has completely dissipated in the world.
He Jin is still a little stunned now, because he has already absorbed part of the knowledge that Ying Long passed on to him, and of course, the part of knowledge that He Jin first absorbed is Ying Long's ability.
As an ancient beast, Ying Long can not only command the beasts, but also control the flow of rivers and rocks, soil and sediment, which is why the Yellow Emperor recruited Ying Long to travel clouds and rain, and Dayu recruited Ying Long to open up the river.
Standing up naked, He Jin had an indescribable sense of familiarity with the energy in his body. In particular, some of Ying Long's skills, like instinct, are engraved in He Jin's bones.
Ying Long, an ancient creature, is not as detailed as the human division in strength. When the strength is weak, it can subdue the beasts, and when it is strong, it can turn the clouds and rain, and even move mountains and seas......
The growth of strength mainly absorbs the energy of heaven and earth, and the energy can be absorbed from the essence of the sun and the moon, as well as from medicines, rare birds and beasts, and can also be obtained from the leylines......
Ying Long's original power is Long Yuan, and Long Yuan is colorless. The reason for the colorful brilliance was that He Jin had just absorbed the dragon yuan, and he couldn't control it all for the time being, and part of the dragon yuan's energy dissipated in the air, showing a colorful brilliance.
Compared to humans, Ying Long is simply a natural darling.
Now, Ying Long has integrated the Dragon Balls directly into He Jin's heart.
A faint hint of colorful light flashed in the corner of He Jin's eyes, staring carefully at his chest and abdomen, he could directly see his internal organs, and the Dragon Ball was in the middle of the heart, with the beating of the heart, Long Yuan's energy flowed through the blood, flowing through the whole body, constantly transforming He Jin's body.
Although it has not yet reached the point of turning the clouds and rain, He Jin can also feel that even if he tears a cow alive now, it is very easy and casual.
Squinting his eyes slightly, the topography of the land in front of him and the distribution of rocks all appeared in He Jin's eyes.
According to Ying Long's impression of the temple in his memory, He Jin's two hands stretched out slightly in front, and Long Yuan, which exuded colorful light, flowed out of He Jin's fingertips like flowing water and directly inserted it into the stone on the ground.
He Jin waved his hands, as if a squid had stretched out its tentacles, and the use of Long Yuan was very easy and casual, as if instinct.
The stone floor rose at a speed visible to the naked eye, and under He Jin's control, it was kneaded like dough into the shape of Ying Long's memory.
After everything was done, He Jin kowtowed respectfully to the statue.
