Chapter 42: Sacrifice to the River God (Part 1)
Gao Cheng didn't expect it badly, this middle-aged man was the King of the Golden Salon, a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "I didn't expect that I would be able to see the juniors with the true dragon blood again, you don't have to be nervous, I just thought about it quietly, come and see you, and chat a few words by the way!"
The King of the Golden Salon may be more kind for the sake of being a dragon, but Gao Cheng did not take it lightly, he was very unfamiliar with the King of the Golden Salon, and it was impossible for him to relax his vigilance because of the other party's two words.
As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and a big river must not accommodate two dragon kings. Gao Cheng's body is only a juvenile, but his foundation in Yinsha River and Golden Snake Lake has been solid. It is also the demon king who occupies thousands of miles of land. When his strength is stronger, he is even qualified to compete for the position of Jin Sharonjun.
Gao Cheng smiled: "I am willing to listen to the teachings of the Dragon King!"
King Jin Salon laughed, flicked his sleeves, and said, "I can't talk about teachings, just a few words, I have prepared a banquet on the ship, let's talk when we go in!"
This dragon ship is a mixed element, and it is also a magic weapon, the cabin is resplendent in gold, and the golden yellow that originally looked vulgar is full of extravagance at this time.
"Gui Wuzhong said that the current King of the Golden Salon is a descendant of the previous Dragon King, and he inherited all the treasures of the Dragon Palace, and now it seems that this is the case, this Dragon King is the second generation of the top immortals in this world!"
Gao Cheng sighed in his heart, there were maids waiting in the cabin, giving the immortal wine, melons and fruits treasured by the Golden Salon Palace. These maids all have centuries of mana. Immortal wine, melons and fruits also contain a strong aura.
To say that with the foundation of Golden Snake Lake and Yinsha Water Mansion and thousands of miles away, he can decorate the Dongxuan Palace like this with a scavenging effort, but the resources consumed in this way are a bit large, so it is better to use these resources to cultivate his subordinates.
King Jin Salon is different, he occupies the entire river, the Dragon Palace has countless treasures, and this dragon boat that has become a magic weapon is also a means of transportation for him at will. I don't care about this waste.
After entering the cabin, Gao Cheng and King Jin Sharon sat down as guests of honor, and after talking to each other, he learned that the Dragon King's name was Ao Sheng, and he had only left the customs not long ago. I just heard that there was a dragon killing the blue crab king, so I moved in my heart and cruined here.
When the two were talking, the dragon boat opened the shielding formation and swam downward, and the peaks on both sides of the river continued to pass by, Gao Cheng didn't know much about this world, so he asked intentionally when he spoke.
"What powerful cultivators are there near the Jinsha River? I don't know too much about this, it is said that hundreds of years ago, when the Daning Dynasty was at its peak, there were many cultivators, and there were even several masters who cultivated to the Earth Immortal Realm, but now these Earth Immortals don't know where they have gone, and I haven't heard from them again......
King Jin Sharon recalled for a moment, and slowly mentioned what he knew. According to his introduction, most of the Jinsha River was within the territory of the Daning Dynasty.
The Daning Dynasty is a great country in the world, which has been established for hundreds of years, and is known as the three major powers along with the Great Liang in the east and the Great Liao in the north. Tens of millions of living beings.
Gao Cheng gradually had an overall impression of this place in his heart. The distance between Da Liang and Da Liao is a bit far, this dragon king stays in the Dragon Palace for retreat and cultivation all year round, and he doesn't know much about the specific situation.
At this time, the waves of the river suddenly become much smoother, and the speed of the water slows down, and after passing through the rolling mountains, a vast plain appears in front of it. The Jinsha River flows slowly on the plain, moistening the land on both sides, and many people's cities can be faintly seen on both sides.
Gao Cheng noticed a small city near a river, and thousands of people gathered on its banks, including officials and common people, as well as two boys and girls dressed in bright red clothes, and an old woman with a bamboo cane.
"What is this?"
Gao Cheng's eyes flashed with fine light, and under the magic power of clairvoyance, thousands of people more than ten miles away appeared in his eyes. When I saw these people, boys and girls, and old women who looked like witches, I immediately thought of some situations in ancient times.
King Jin Sharon turned his head and glanced at it, and said disapprovingly: "This is a sacrifice once a year, the Jinsha River passes through the Longjiang Mansion, Cangyun Mansion and Jinhua Mansion of the Daning Dynasty, and when the monarch went out of the customs, he heard the Prime Minister's report, it is said that the national strength of the Daning Dynasty declined, and the cultivators lived in seclusion, and the demons and monsters in the territory began to go around to disturb the world. ”
"I don't know when these humans knew the name of Benjun, who have been sacrificing by the river all these years, and want me to bless them with good weather and rain from demons, and will send boys and girls every time! ”
Gao Cheng paused slightly, and couldn't help but say: "Long Jun, I heard that the mountain god or the water god needs to accumulate merit in order to record the immortal book in the heavenly court, these people use virgin boys and girls to sacrifice every year, is it a little inappropriate for Long Jun to ignore it?"
"Accumulate merits?
King Jin Salon looked like he had heard some joke, and he showed a hint of crying and laughing, but he immediately thought that Gao Cheng was just a monster from a deep mountain and didn't know much, so he was a little relieved.
"Brother, we have the true dragon bloodline, as long as our strength reaches a certain level, we can break through the sky and ascend, but it is not the heavenly court that is soaring, but the higher world!"
"The Heavenly Court you have heard of is just a group of human powerhouses formed by a group of powerful people, and it was very powerful in ancient times, and it was able to suppress the four directions of heaven and earth. But they can't control us. ”
"Also, I'm the King of Jinsha, not the god of water! I don't have a god on my body, so I don't need to accumulate merits!"
Gao Cheng was speechless when he heard this, he took it for granted this time, King Jin Sharon is essentially no different from himself, and he is the demon king who occupies one side. However, the strength of the other party is very huge, and it occupies a water vein. That's when I misunderstood. thought that the other party was the dragon monarch and water god who was in charge of the divine power of the Jinsha River.
And King Jin Sharon was a little disdainful of the so-called Heavenly Court in his words, and Gao Cheng could understand after thinking about it that the Heavenly Court of this world was not the center of heaven and earth that suppressed time and space in myths and legends.
At this time, thousands of people by the river went through a dance and sacrifice, and under the order of the old woman, two cute young children with small pink faces and big eyes were placed on a bamboo raft, and there were also tied cattle and sheep on the bamboo raft.
The two toddlers, who looked to be three or four years old, had already understood something, and sobbed when they were placed on the raft. There were two young couples on the shore who cried loudly, and their bodies were held down by several strong men around them, and they couldn't rush out.
The bamboo raft slowly left the riverbank, there were already monsters waiting in the river, and a rich demonic aura slowly floated from the depths of the river, and the originally calm water surface quickly appeared vortex.
"The river god has appeared! The river god has appeared!" the old woman with a bamboo cane in her hand hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.
The other onlookers showed awe and hurriedly bowed, and even the crying young couple subconsciously lowered their voices.
