Chapter 4: The Manifestation of the Dragon
Go over and take a look. Now that Uncle Ben is hungry, maybe there are any other offerings in the temple?
Thinking of this, Zhao Wushuang quickly rushed into the grass and walked towards the temple in front of him with a rustling sound.
Even he didn't realize that the speed at which he was crawling at random was far faster than he should have as a snake......
When it came to this temple, it found out that this was actually a dragon king temple dedicated to the dragon king. The two dragon-shaped stone carvings on both sides of the doorway, although they are a little old, are also complete, and they look a little mysterious under the reflection of the lantern firelight.
Zhao Wushuang's cold body glided silently against the bluestone paved temple floor. The door was not closed, and he directly slid in from the threshold and entered the interior of the Dragon King Temple. The smell of burning incense and candles was everywhere, and the curling green smoke was filled, which was quite mysterious.
When Zhao Wushuang raised his head, he saw a lot of dilapidated futons in front of him, probably for the pilgrims who came to worship the gods to kneel. Further ahead is the god platform, on which there is a statue of the dragon king, which is the head of the dragon body! The lower half of the body is entrenched like a snake, and only the image of a dignified middle-aged man is above. In front of this statue of the Dragon King, there are various offerings. There are roast suckling pigs, whole chickens, whole ducks, etc......
It seems that the common people at this time really worship the ethereal gods too much.
Hehe, anyway, don't eat for nothing. These goodies are really cheap for me.
He thought to himself with pleasure, and then he devoured it in a big gulp. Ever since the mutation at the seven inches, he has been extremely hungry and eats a huge amount of food. I can't stop eating it. I didn't notice that outside the Dragon King Temple, some nearby villagers were slowly walking in a line.
It's been a long time since it's rained, and they're here to ask for rain.
At the forefront was a middle-aged man in his forties, named Qin Yiren, who was quite a prestigious squire in the area. As soon as he entered the temple, the first thing he saw was a thick black snake entrenched on the altar of the dragon lord's statue Qian and munching on it. I almost didn't get scared down.
But the people of that era were superstitious. Qin Yiren thought about it like this, such a big snake happened to come to the temple to eat offerings when they were about to come to worship the Dragon King. This...... It can't be the manifestation of the Dragon King, right? Could this big snake be the incarnation of the Dragon King?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, and he felt a little impulsive to bow and worship.
At this time, the people who followed up also saw Zhao Wushuang who was entrenched on the offering table and munching, and they were also very shocked. However, when Qin suddenly knelt down, shouting "Lord Dragon has appeared" in his mouth while worshipping, everyone else also burst into a fuss.
That's right! How can an ordinary snake find the offering table of the Dragon King Temple so accurately? This must be the incarnation of the Dragon King! Then you have to say goodbye, let the dragon lord rain.
So with a hula, all the people in this group knelt down and bowed respectfully to Zhao Wushuang, still chanting words in their mouths.
Zhao Wushuang's guy was so hilarious that he didn't notice anyone coming in at first. It wasn't until everyone was kneeling down to worship him that they suddenly reacted.
Day dog! Discovered? How do you escape?
At first he thought to himself. But he immediately felt a mysterious power transmitted from those who knelt down to worship him. He looked over curiously, and in the scarlet snake eyes, he saw small white dots of light emerging from the top of the kneeling heads.
Some were big and some small, flying towards them like fireflies. In one fell swoop, he got into the thick snake's body.
Comfortable! It's so comfortable!
Zhao Wushuang only felt as if he had soaked in a hot spring, and he was so refreshed that he flew up. There was a warm current in his body, rushing towards the seven inches of his neck. The fire was burning, and there was a little bit of comfort in the slight pain. The whole body is full of a sense of strength, as if it is about to break the skin again.
What's going on? These people regard me as the embodiment of the Dragon King!
Zhao Wushuang was not stupid either, and quickly understood what was going on. I was overjoyed in my heart, and I was full at this time, and I didn't hide from it. Just coiled up on the offering table, the huge snake head stood up, and the slender snake eyes stared directly at the people below who were kneeling in fear, and the snake hyacinth kept spitting.
There is really a bit of the temperament of the dragon lord's manifestation and incarnation!
At this time, those people were even more convinced that Zhao Wushuang was the incarnation of the Dragon King, and they were even more respectful, and they had words in their mouths. After a while, there were no more white dots of light coming out of the believer's head. Zhao Wushuang felt bored, so he stopped pretending to be a magic stick and swaggered down from the offering table. Swimming on the cold bluestone slab floor.
That Qin was very smart, and immediately shouted loudly: "Congratulations to the Dragon King!" So the other people also hurriedly shouted: "Congratulations to the Dragon King!" At the same time, a lot of white light flew out and burrowed into Zhao Wushuang's body. Let him feel refreshed.
Looks...... The feeling of being a god stick is really cool and crooked.
He thought to himself as he swam towards the back of the Dragon King Temple. He was feeling hot all over his body and wanted to stay in the water for a while. And the snake's keen sense had already made him sense that just behind the Dragon King Temple, a large wasteland overgrown with weeds emitted wet moisture, indicating that there was at least one pond there.
Out of the Dragon King Temple, behind it is the wasteland. The grass grows taller than people, and the humid climate of Guangdong has caused all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants to be found in these grasses. However, Zhao Wushuang is now a poisonous python, so he is naturally not afraid, but those poisons are going to avoid him.
After a while, Zhao Wushuang really found the pond in front of him. The pond is oval-shaped, about 100 meters long and 60 meters wide, which is already very large. It looks like the water is quite deep, too.
Zhao Wushuang, who was burned all over his body, rushed into the pond with a roar, and a cool feeling neutralized the burning sensation in his body. He was shaken, and suddenly there was a slight crackling sound, and a layer of snake skin shed again. He shook slightly, got out of the snakeskin, and swam quickly through the water.
The muscle strangulation power of the snakes was already extremely strong, and now the muscle strength of Zhao Wushuang's body had become far superior to that of ordinary snakes because of the strange scales at seven inches and the white spots of light that emerged from the bodies of those who worshipped him. Between the twists of the body, it is more flexible and fast than a fish in the water!
This pond seems to be very deep. I've been swimming for almost a dozen meters, and I haven't reached the end yet?
Zhao Wushuang felt a little strange, seeing all kinds of fish, turtles and other animals swimming around him, he felt that this pond might not be so simple. Curiosity prompted him to continue descending, diving for more than thirty meters before finally reaching the bottom of the pond.
Such a small pond is more than 30 meters deep? It's incredible!
Zhao Wushuang lurked in the mud of the pond field, rolling and churning in it, the black snake body smeared with black silt and became even blacker. He didn't notice that not far from him, in the mud wall of the edge of the pond, there was a large hole three feet in diameter. A white snake head the size of a human head with fine scales slowly poked out of the hole. Scarlet eyes, staring at Zhao Wushuang!
