Chapter 13 Treasures Left by Grandpa, Ancient Books of Value
Real person: "Good man, the five holy orders are the same as the Xuanhuang Banner given to you by the Yellow Emperor, and you can collect them through your mind, you only need to hold the holy order of the corresponding attribute in your right hand now, and touch the holy beast mural with your left hand." ”
Jiang He put away the remaining four tokens according to his words, holding the Xuanwu Order in his right hand, and touching the mural of Xuanwu with his left hand. There was no need to recite any mantras, the basalt murals and the holy decree shone with a pale blue light at the same time, from light to deep, until the entire vision was enveloped in a strong blue light.
When the vision gradually recovered, Jiang He found that he had come to an unusual place, surrounded by the aura of water attributes, and a huge guy in front of him only stretched out one head and stared at him, and the rest of his body was immersed in seawater. This is Xuanwu, much more powerful than the mural looks.
Jiang He: "Hi, hello, Holy Beast Xuanwu-sama. Jiang He didn't know how to greet the holy beast, and was a little nervous.
"Hahaha, just call me Xuanwu, you don't need to be an adult. Are you the disciple recommended by Tianxuan, Jiang He? Just hearing your name makes me feel very cordial. Xuanwu laughed, and the slightest movement of his huge body could drive the choppy waves.
"Yes, Holy Beast Xuanwu, the disciple is Jiang He, according to the request of Master Tianxuan, he has come to accept your test. Jiang He replied sincerely, and he was also looking forward to what kind of test Xuanwu would have.
"Okay, this is the Dinghai Pearl, I borrowed it from the Deep Sea Dragon King, you need to send the Dinghai Pearl back to the Deep Sea Dragon King now, and then return to me safely. Xuanwu opened his huge mouth as he spoke, and at the tip of Xuanwu's tongue was a dark blue orb.
Jiang He stretched out his hand to take off the Dinghai Pearl, and instantly felt the surging water attribute power reach his heart, making Jiang He feel as if he was also made of water, and could liquefy into water at any time.
"But I, I can't swim. Jiang He remembered that when he was in the Chiyou tribe, he was only playing in shallow water at most, and he may have only submerged to his chest in the deepest water, and now he wants to send Dinghai Zhu into the hands of the dragon king in the deep sea, this Xuanwu problem is too difficult.
"Haha, don't worry, really don't worry. The Dinghai Pearl has the effect of allowing the wielder to breathe and move in water. At the same time, you must have comprehended the ability to control the water attribute from Tianxuan, and this test is your use of the water attribute. Xuanwu joked, as if he was deliberately hiding something.
Jiang He stopped talking, took Dinghaizhu to the seaside, looked at the bottomless sea, and was a little stunned. Xuanwu saw Jiang He standing motionless on the seashore, and knew that this guy was not ready to enter the sea, so he gently pushed Jiang He into the sea with a light blow of his horn.
The river was out of balance by Xuanwu, and fell into the sea in an instant, just entering the sea, the center of gravity was unstable and a little nervous, and he almost let go of Dinghaizhu. Fortunately, I subconsciously remembered the importance of Dinghaizhu, so I tightened my hand again to ensure the safety of Dinghaizhu.
At this time, the river has begun to sink in the sea, because of the Dinghai Pearl, the river can clearly feel that there is a film completely wrapped about three inches from the skin.
The river in the membrane can breathe normally, but its movement is still a little sluggish, and after trying to kick the leg a few times, I am sure that I can change the direction I want to go, and the river gradually moves faster.
It was the first time he was so close to the sea, and Jiang He looked at this rare spectacle with excitement and curiosity. Beautiful and colorful fish, turtles that move slowly on land but glide freely in the sea, and many unknown sea beasts with bloody mouths and sharp teeth. With the whispers of life taught by the Fuxi immortals, Jiang He could understand the dialogue among the sea creatures, and only then did he know that the bloody beast was called a shark.
Dinghai Zhu is really a divine thing, holding Dinghai Zhu is like the master of the ocean, all kinds of sea beasts, fish and shrimp, all have to take a detour to avoid it, lest it anger the master holding the pearl.
But as the rivers go deeper and deeper into the ocean floor, the light becomes lighter and the temperature gets cooler. However, with the fluctuation of the sea water and the perception of the properties of the water, you can also feel the general shape of the dark creatures in the deep sea.
I don't know how long I dived, as if there was no end to the bottom of the sea, and there were a few times when I was on the ground, but in fact, it was just a hurdle in the ravines in the sea. Take a few more steps and there is an abyss where you can dive.
"The strong man who holds the Dinghai Pearl, welcome to the ocean world, and come to welcome you at the order of the Dragon King. Suddenly, there was a sound in the darkness, and although Jiang He couldn't see it, he could feel that it was a huge sea beast with eight tentacles by the ripples of the water.
"Then there will be labor," Jiang He replied simply and brightly, hoping to leave this bottomless ocean as soon as possible.
After a while, a soft and powerful tentacle surrounded the waist of the river, and then dragged the river to swim quickly towards the deep sea, the speed made the river secretly surprised, the river could only listen to the sound of gargling in his ears, so he closed his eyes tightly, and held the sea pearl tightly with both hands to avoid any mistakes.
When the river opened his eyes again, he had come to the bottom of the sea at this time, and the scenery in front of him was completely amazing, a splendid palace, shining under the full light, and the top of the palace entrance was a photo of the gilded big characters [Bihai Crystal Palace].
When they reached their destination, the sea beast let go of its tentacles, and after thanking the river and the way, it swam away alone.
Jiang He walked towards the Crystal Palace with Dinghai Zhu in his hand, and there were many guards standing at the door, with shrimp heads and human bodies, which made Jiang He amazed.
"Honored guest, please stay, please allow me to report to the Dragon King before letting you in. A big man with a crab face and a human body spoke, his small eyes staring straight at Dinghaizhu.
Jiang He was about to answer, when an old man suddenly appeared, looking like a human, the only difference was that he was carrying a huge turtle shell, as if he was struggling. Jiang He was wondering what crime the old man had committed, and he had to carry a heavy load, when he heard the conversation between the two sides ringing in his ears.
Old man: "General Crab, your bravery in battle is very commendable, but you are still too cautious in doing things. This person holds my Sea Clan artifact in his hand, and he personally sent it to the Crystal Palace thousands of miles away, how can he not invite him into the palace first and then make a report, but let the guests wait outside the palace, how can there be such a reason for hospitality?"
General Crab: "I'm sorry, Prime Minister Turtle, I remember that His Majesty the Dinghai Pearl Dragon King didn't lend it to the Xuanwu Holy Beast? ”
Prime Minister Turtle: "Those who hold the sea pearl in their hands should be treated as guests if they see His Majesty the Dragon King, even if you have doubts, you should not leave the guests outside the palace." ”
Jiang He saw that the two of them were about to quarrel over such a trivial matter as not letting himself enter the palace, so he hurriedly persuaded him: "Mr. Turtle Prime Minister, General Crab, please don't worry about entering the palace, I was just sent by the Holy Beast Xuanwu to return the Divine Bead, and the Divine Bead will leave when it is delivered." ”
When Prime Minister Gui Cheng saw Jiang He, he didn't care about General Crab's rudeness, but left in a hurry, so he no longer argued with General Crab and personally accompanied Jiang He into the palace to meet the Dragon King.
Entering the Crystal Palace, Jiang He was surprised to find that although there was a strong water attribute aura in the Crystal Palace, at the same time, the air and light were sufficient, and even if there was no Dinghaizhu, he could breathe normally.
Prime Minister Gui Cheng introduced the general situation of the Crystal Palace to Jiang He, culture, specialties, and rare treasures, and also introduced His Majesty the Dragon King and the artifact Dinghaizhu, as well as the rank and army of the Sea Clan, and finally when it came to etiquette, he couldn't help but think of General Crab's faux pas, so he apologized again.
Jiang He: "Prime Minister Turtle, in fact, this is not to blame General Crab, because the Divine Bead was lent to the Holy Beast Xuanwu, and when it was returned, it was a stranger, and he would be alert." ”
Prime Minister Turtle: "Your Excellency doesn't know, although Dinghaizhu is an artifact, but not everyone can touch it, except for His Majesty the Dragon King, holy beasts, and some immortals, only people who are full of benevolence can touch it, otherwise their hearts will be defeated by the strong ocean breath of Dinghaizhu until the spirit is broken, even if I am the prime minister of the sea clan, I can't touch it at will." That's why His Majesty the Dragon King dared to issue a royal decree: those who hold the sea pearl in their hands will see His Majesty himself. ”
Jiang He nodded yes, and proposed that General Crab was not derelict in his duties, and should not punish him, Prime Minister Gui nodded in agreement, and came to the highest and largest building in the Crystal Palace [Dragon Venerable Palace] with Jiang He
Entering the Dragon Zun Palace, Jiang He saw that there was an emperor sitting on the throne above the main hall, with a golden crown on the head, wearing a golden silk blue robe embroidered with flowing water patterns similar to Xuanwu. It must be the deep-sea dragon king that the holy beast Xuanwu and the turtle prime minister said. On the right side of the dragon king is also an old man in human form, but unlike the turtle prime minister, he is carrying a large shell on his back.
Dragon King: "The one who came is Jiang He, your master recommended you to accept the Xuanwu test, and Xuanwu told me when he asked me to borrow Dinghaizhu." You can go down and rest first, I am calling you if you need to. ”
Prime Minister Gui and the two old men called Prime Minister Pei Cheng bowed and bowed, and then exited the hall from the corner.
The Dragon King continued: "Sure enough, you are the first to be recognized at such a young age and begin to accept the Xuanwu test. Originally, Xuanwu asked me to help test you together, hoping that you could find the Crystal Palace with your own strength and send it back to Dinghaizhu, but Dinghaizhu can't leave for too long, and more than three months will bring disaster to the world, so I will send an octopus messenger to meet you first, and then I will conduct a new test. ”
Next, the dragon king took back the Dinghai Pearl, and then took the river into the palace, and what caught his eye was a gushing spring, and he didn't expect to see the fountain in the bottom of the sea, and the river was amazed.
"This is Dinghai Spring, the water quality of the sea spring is different from ordinary seawater, it is more sinking than seawater, and it is condensed by the essence of seawater. The pearl must be placed on top of the spring, and the pearl controls the circulation of the spring. If there is no Dinghaizhu, after more than three months, the sea spring water will release the power of cohesion, causing the sea water to soar, and then the world will suffer. The Dragon King said solemnly, "Although Xuanwu and I are close friends, and he swears that you can send Dinghaizhu back within three months, I still can't joke with the lives of the people in the world." ”
Jiang He nodded, remembering that he slowly dived to the bottom of the sea with Dinghai Pearl, if it wasn't for the envoy sent by the Dragon King to greet him, he didn't know when he would arrive at the Crystal Palace, if he couldn't return Dinghai Pearl within three months, it would be a great disaster in the world at that time, and he was afraid to think about it.
"Then Lord Dragon, what kind of test are you going to give me?" Jiang He asked urgently.
The dragon king didn't answer, but just put the Dinghai Pearl he was holding in his mouth, and suddenly turned into a golden dragon, and the dragon power shook in all directions, and even Haiquan trembled slightly. Then the dragon king flew to the vicinity of the eye of the sea spring and spat the pearl of the sea on the spring. After that, he returned to the river and changed into a human form.
