Chapter 100: Candle Dragon
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at the people around me, although I didn't say my own conjecture, but from their demeanor, I could see that I was not the only one who thought of this terrible truth.
Thinking about it, after all, there is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger in this line, and I am not a peerless genius, since I can think of this step by step, then they who set foot on this road one step earlier than me are naturally more likely to guess the truth than me.
However, it is clear that this does not include Shen Lang.
"Brother Chuan, what do you say is wrong with Brother Ting, why does it look like he has hit an evil spirit, he usually looks down on anyone, why has his attitude changed so strangely today?"
After seeing the thoughtful looks on our faces, Shen Lang was still at a loss, and after confirming that Chunting still maintained that state without saying a word, Shen Lang, who was helpless, could only come to my side, looked at Chunting in the distance and whispered to me.
"And what kind of Zhongshan God is that Brother Ting's mouth said, can it really be a god, looking at Brother Ting's current appearance, he seems to be extremely sure that this so-called Zhongshan God will not attack us, how is he sure, and what is the origin of this Zhongshan God?"
And before I could answer, Ling Xuan on the side walked to me and Shen Lang's side, only to see him mercilessly slap Shen Lang on the head, and then scolded Shen Lang with a serious expression.
"I usually say that you just don't have a memory, but when this happens, I will definitely lock you up in the Lingyun Tower in my spare time, there are so many rare books and rare books that countless people are eager to see, and you will not be so unlearned if you have read a few of them."
As he spoke, Ling Xuan looked at the Spring Pavilion not far away, which was still in that weird state, as if he was afraid of disturbing the Spring Pavilion, so Ling Xuan unconsciously lowered his voice and explained Shen Lang's question just now seriously and helplessly.
"I don't know about Brother Ting's strange attitude today, and how to be sure that the God of Zhongshan will not attack, but for the so-called God of Zhongshan, as long as you have read the Book of Mountains and Seas, you will more or less understand it."
"It has been recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that the god of Zhongshan, called Candle Yin, is regarded as day and night ,......"
As Ling Xuan explained seriously, Shen Lang's expression gradually eased, and after Ling Xuan explained it thoroughly, Shen Lang couldn't help but pat his thigh, and said with excitement in his tone.
"Master, I thought that the god of Zhongshan was sacred, it turned out to be the candle dragon?"
Perhaps because he was too excited, Shen Lang's voice was quite loud, and at this time, Ling Xuan couldn't help but look at Chun Ting, and after confirming that it had no effect on him, he lowered his voice and scolded.
"Be quiet, say it so loudly and can't hide the essence of your lack of learning."
Since Ling Xuan had taught Shen Lang the hegemonic trick inherited by Li Cunxiao, for Shen Lang, Ling Xuan was his master, and no matter what happened, it was impossible for this relationship to change.
And as the saying goes, being a teacher for one day and a father for life, for Shen Lang, who has been yearning for chivalrous demeanor since childhood, respecting teachers is an unshakable rule, so although the two seem to be of the same age, Shen Lang has always maintained great respect for Ling Xuan.
Because of this, after hearing Ling Xuan's reprimand, Shen Lang did not act as a rebuttal, only to see him sticking out his tongue playfully like a child, and then lowered his head and stopped talking.
For Shen Lang's naughty appearance, Ling Xuan really had nothing to do, perhaps because he felt the strangeness in Shen Lang's words just now, so Ling Xuan no longer scolded him as harshly as he did just now, but asked him curiously.
"Shen Lang, why did you mention the word Candle Dragon, there was a hint of clarity in your eyes, since you didn't know that Candle Dragon was the god of Zhongshan, then you shouldn't have such a reaction to this name?"
"Master, although I haven't read the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and I don't know what the god of Zhongshan is and the god of Nanshan, but I am actually not unfamiliar with the name Candle Dragon."
After hearing Ling Xuan's question, Shen Lang seemed to come to his senses again, raised his head and replied to Ling Xuan with great interest.
"I have heard people say, the candle dragon, the green dragon, the Ying dragon, the blue dragon, the four dragons are the ancestors of all dragons, among which the candle dragon body is thousands of miles long, the body is red, in the Gonggong and Zhuan Xuan failed to fight for the emperor, after breaking the Buzhou Mountain, the candle dragon relied on the fire spirit in his mouth to illuminate the country of the sun and save the people."
"In addition, I have also seen descriptions of the creation of the candle dragon in some books, in these books, the candle dragon opens its eyes for day, closes its eyes for night, blows for winter, and exhales for summer, and it is in this time and again that day and night change, cold and summer, the candle dragon creates the future of the ancient and the present."
"It is precisely because in these descriptions that the power of the candle dragon is even no less than that of Pangu of the creation of the world, so it left an extremely deep impression on me, causing me to be so excited when I heard the word candle dragon just now."
Hearing what Shen Lang said, everyone was a little crying and laughing for a while.
Because everyone really didn't expect that Shen Lang's understanding of the candle dragon was not a record in ancient books, but a description in later generations.
There is no doubt that it is all made up, and it is full of artistic creation and processing, which is naturally excellent as a pastime, but if it is taken as a fact, perhaps only people like Shen Lang can do it.
Everyone thought that Shen Lang would provide some hidden information that we didn't know, but they never expected that this was just a misunderstanding, seeing this, Ling Xuan could only say to him helplessly.
"Shen Lang, you should watch less, when the matter of Zhongyuan Day is over, I must lock you in Lingyun Tower for three months, if you don't change your appearance of not learning and not knowing, you don't want to take a step out of the door."
After finishing speaking, Ling Xuan no longer paid attention to Shen Lang's dejected appearance again, and everyone turned to look at Chun Ting, who was still in a strange state, and everyone's eyes were full of worry.
But Chunting seemed to turn a blind eye to our worries, and after a long silence he suddenly spoke, his words were sincere, full of mysteries that we could not understand.
"Chunting knows that the seniors are here, and at the same time knows why the seniors are reluctant to meet us, but the seniors have already reached the realm of heaven and man, and they should have already known what the arrival of our group of people means, and many things were actually unavoidable as early as when the seniors first came to this secluded land."
After finishing speaking, Chunting paused slightly, only to see his head hanging lower, and at the same time, in a more respectful tone than before, he once again tried to invite this legendary god of Zhongshan.
"The acting leader of Guanshan once again respectfully invites the god of Zhongshan!"
