Chapter Ninety-Six: Lao Li is born
The cause and effect were explained clearly, and the bald-tailed Lao Li asked me with a smile: "Little Engong, can you trust me Lao Li now?" β
Isn't this nonsense, he asked me like this, in fact, he was in a hurry to let me get him out, but he was thin-skinned and embarrassed to say it because of his face. I smiled and asked Lao Li, "Brother Li, do you know how you can break the seal?" Without further ado, get you out there, there's a lot of work waiting for me outside. β
After listening to my words, Lao Li was not only not happy, but also looked surprised and panicked, and said to me, "Didn't your master tell you?" β
I heard that his tone was wrong, and I was stunned and asked him, "Why, you don't know how to break the seal?" β
"If I knew how to break the seal, I would have run away! To tell you the truth, although my body is suppressed, even my divine thoughts are stronger than ordinary people. Lao Li said this, although he tried his best to suppress the depression in his heart, I could still feel that he was about to collapse.
This is normal, he was buried in a silent well for more than 600 years, and finally someone came to save him, but said that he did not have the key with him. Thinking about it from another perspective, if it was me who experienced this kind of encounter, I am afraid that I would have already gone berserk.
At this moment, Chang Xiangjiu walked to the place where the iron chains gathered in the middle of the store and looked at it for a long time, and then said to us: "I seem to know this thing!" β
"What's that?" I asked him puzzled. Lao Li suddenly looked surprised, and asked Chang Xiangjiu: "Do you know this iron chain?" Great, I've been trying for so many years and found that all the energy trapped me comes from these chains, do you know how to break it? β
Chang Xiangjiu didn't answer him directly, but asked me: "God, are you familiar with this well?" β
I thought about it and quickly shook my head, before I came to the Asura Realm, I had never seen this well, where did I get the familiar saying.
Chang Xiangjiu thought about it and asked me in a different way: "I mean, are you familiar with the layout in this well?" You think about this well in a small way, and you are thinking about Lao Li's identity. β
Layout? Except for a dozen iron chains, this well is larger than an ordinary dry well. As for Lao Li's identity, he was a Jiao at the beginning, but now he has turned into a dragon. And then what? Is it related?
Wait, chains, dragonsΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
I suddenly felt as if I had caught some clue, and blurted out: "Brother Jiu, you mean, this is a locked dragon well?" β
Chang Xiangjiu smiled and nodded, and said to me, "I think I know what's going on!" Then he turned his head and asked the bald-tailed old Li: "Brother Li, I have something that is a bit abrupt to ask, but you must answer honestly." β
Seeing the seriousness of Chang Xiangjiu's question, the bald-tailed old Li also nodded solemnly.
Chang Xiangjiu looked at Lao Li's eyes and said word by word: "Dare to ask Brother Li, did you have five claws in the beginning?" β
"How do you know!" The bald-tailed Lao Li looked shocked and embarrassed as if he had been discovered running naked.
Chang Xiangjiu laughed, said that it was indeed so, and then explained: "As the saying goes, it is true that dragons give birth to five claws, and Jiaosheng has five claws is a disaster!" The dragon does not need to lay eggs, the eggs are a vision, and the incubated dragon must have five claws! β
When Lao Li heard this, his face changed again and again, and finally sighed: "I have also heard this rumor, it seems that it was not my parents who had an accident and couldn't take care of me." β
Listening to what they mean, the bald-tailed Lao Li was abandoned by his parents? This is so pitiful, I thought that this kind of thing would only happen to us mortals.
After the bald-tailed Lao Li had a bitter face for a long time, he stared at Chang Xiangjiu, and his eyes suddenly glowed with golden light. Immediately after that, his face was shocked again, and he said in shock: "No wonder you know so much about Jiaolong, it turns out that you have already turned into a Jiao." Wrong! You are a bloody Jiao! This bloodline is long gone, what are you doing? β
Without waiting for Lao Li to finish speaking, Chang Xiangjiu laughed, waved his hand and said: "My Jiao body has nothing to do with the bloodline, it is the relationship between the exercises I practiced, and I was lucky to get this body." β
"What?" Lao Li was even more shocked when he heard this, looked at Chang Xiangjiu with a strange face and asked: "If you can turn the dust and blood into a battle by cultivating, then how much killing karma do you have to create!" β
Lao Li is too ignorant of human feelings, and his words are tantamount to saying that Chang Xiangjiu is a demon who loves to kill. The point is that the two are not in close contact, and it is inevitable to cause misunderstandings when they come up and say so. He didn't know that Chang Xiangjiu was fighting in the Bitter Realm, and that he had devoured Garuda before he turned into a Jiao.
I was afraid that Chang Xiangjiu would be angry, so I immediately changed the topic and asked him, what is the meaning of the dragon giving birth to five claws is true, and the five claws of Jiao giving birth to five claws are evil.
Chang Xiangjiu saw my thoughts, waved his hand indifferently, and didn't continue to talk about the topic just now. He told me that the first lock in the dragon well was a five-clawed dragon.
Legend has it that when the ancient Dayu ruled the water, he governed the rivers all over the world, but when he arrived at the Huaishui, the flood did not stop. Dayu personally went to investigate, and heard that there was a god in the water, and the people worshipped him as a jellyfish. When the incense offering is endless, the Huaishui is calm, once the tribute is less, or later, this jellyfish Niangniang immediately makes waves.
Later, I found out that the things in the water were not immortals at all, his real name was Wuzhiqi, and he was an ancient giant demon in the shape of an ape and nine feet tall. In the past, there was also a name called Xingshui God Ape.
Dayu was angry and summoned the gods to encircle and suppress, and finally caught it. Although Wu Zhiqi was arrested, he still fought and jumped, and no one could control it. So Yu used the Nine Cold Iron to make chains to lock his neck, and dug a deep well under the Huaishui, trapping it in it to suppress the Huaishui.
After all the floods in the world were treated, Emperor Dayu built Jiuding to suppress Kyushu. Although Wuzhi Qi was locked, after Emperor Dayu built Jiuding and won Kyushu. A five-clawed dragon appeared on the border of Yuzhou, and the local fishermen who were disturbing were miserable.
Emperor Dayu remembered the original method of trapping Wuzhiqi, he repeated his old tricks, dug a deep well, and then locked the five-clawed dragon with cold iron chains. Unexpectedly, not only did the flood disappear, but with the suppression of the five-clawed dragon, a dragon vein appeared under the lock dragon well.
The five-clawed dragon and the dragon vein complement each other, not only the dragon vein is complete, but the dragon also takes off the five-claw and cultivates into a dragon shape. Yuzhou is nourished by the dragon's energy, and the land is fertile and the grains are abundant. After the five-clawed dragon turned into a dragon, he thanked Emperor Dayu for not killing at the beginning, and let himself get this great creation, so he became Emperor Yu's attendant.
After listening to Chang Xiangjiu's speech, I understood the meaning of Jiaosheng's five claws. I'm afraid this thing is fate, the bald-tailed old Li is not bad-hearted, he rains privately for the people. But he violated the rules of heaven without even knowing it.
It's like my jealous personality this day, sometimes it's not that I look for things myself, but things come to you by myself. I didn't know anything, but disaster came.
"What does it really mean that a dragon has five claws? Does it mean that as long as there are no five-clawed ones, it is a fake dragon? I asked Chang Xiangjiu stupidly.
Without waiting for Chang Xiangjiu to answer, Lao Li on the side smiled and said to me: "I don't understand it this way, if you turn into a dragon, you are a dragon, and there is only one five-clawed true dragon, which is called the ancestral dragon, and it is the longest of all scales in the world." β
"That's right." Chang Xiangjiu said: "All living beings in the world are divided into five categories, and they win the scales and feathers." Winning is a person, and the king of people is Fuxi. Mao is all beasts with hair and horns, and the chief of all beasts is the unicorn. Scales are everything with scales, and the length of ten thousand scales is the ancestral dragon. The feather is all that has feathers and wings, and the chief of all birds is the phoenix. Kun is a worm, and the king of Kunzhong is Xiangliu. β
Immediately afterward, Chang Xiangjiu said to me: "Although no one has ever seen it, it is said that there is always only one king of the five categories. Only when this one dies will the next one appear. The children born to the unicorn include the Qiyi, the nine lions, and so on, but there is no Qilin. The phoenix gives birth to a peacock, and Dapeng is just no phoenix. In other words, if a dragon grows a fifth claw, it proves that the ancestral dragon is dead, or that it is no longer in the Three Realms. β
The two of them were like storytelling, and after some narration, they made me stupid. I used to think that the phoenix unicorn or something was a legend, although I think so now, but after listening to them, the picture is much more three-dimensional.
But soon I reacted, now is not the time to listen to the story, I immediately asked Chang Xiangjiu: "By the way, Brother Jiu, after saying so much, how did Lao Li's seal be unlocked?" β

Obviously, Lao Li was also more concerned about this, although he didn't have a too excited expression on his face, his eyes were staring at Chang Xiangjiu, and he didn't dare to leave for a moment.
Chang Xiangjiu said to me with a smile: "When the sixth master sealed Brother Li with the lock dragon well, he must have seen the body of his five-clawed dragon and didn't want him to suffer. But later, when he practiced with the dragon vein, his breath would inevitably leak, so the sixth master would definitely suppress his dragon qi. Think about it, what is the trick that your master taught you specifically to suppress dragons? β
As soon as he asked me, I immediately reacted, and my master taught me a total of three tricks. The six-character mantra, the seal of the king, and the trick of catching the dragon. Thinking with his toes, he knew that he was talking about the trick of catching dragons.
I asked him a little depressed: "Brother Jiu, are you talking about the dragon capture technique?" If it is, then it's troublesome, I haven't done it once so far. β
Chang Xiangjiu said to me indifferently: "The trick of catching the dragon is to trap the dragon, not to save the dragon." The eye of the array is at the place where the chains converge, and if you try to enter that realm, you will probably find a way to break the formation. Can the sixth master leave this matter to you, maybe you can't do it? β
Hearing Chang Xiangjiu say this, I also felt quite reasonable, so I walked to the middle of the bottom of the well, where the dozen or so iron chains converged, in the excitement and expectation of the bald tail Lao Li.
Closing my eyes slightly to adjust my breath, after a while, I slowly recited the mantra of the dragon capture technique, and mobilized the spiritual power of my whole body. Suddenly, I seemed to have entered that mysterious space again.
The sky is high and wide, and it is wild and desolate. A swarthy dragon seemed to go mad, spitting flames and burning the few plants that were already few. Suddenly, there was a cry from the sky, and then a phoenix with fire feathers and multicolored feathers fell from the sky. The evil dragon wanted to escape, and the phoenix flapped its wings with disdain in its eyes.
The dragon seemed to be frozen, unable to move. The phoenix's wings fanned again, and the evil dragon was directly sucked by the phoenix as if it had encountered a piece of paper from a vacuum cleaner, and was swallowed by the phoenix in an instant.
This time I seem to have a little more enlightenment than last time, but I still can't grasp that feeling. Just when I was distressed, a pure dragon aura erupted from the place where the chains converged, and a man's figure appeared there.
"Master?!" I exclaimed, but he ignored me. I found that the surrounding land was all crimson, which was the inherent color of the land of the Asura Realm.
My master, who had transformed into a dragon, jumped into the air and swung his palm, and a deep pit appeared directly on the ground, and then he threw out an object. It looks like a small snake, and it looks like a miniature version of a dragon, and the whole body is pitch black.
The moment the little black Jiao was thrown into the pit, more than a dozen chains appeared out of thin air at the mouth of the well, and these iron chains were like snakes, whizzing into the well. Then my master swung out another palm, and the formation immediately took shape.
"If you cultivate like this, you can avoid the catastrophe, and when you turn into a dragon, you will see the light of day again!" My Master's voice resounded through the heavens and the earth.
The next moment, he turned to look at me and asked, "Have you learned?" β
"Huh?" I didn't understand what it meant, but I saw my master sigh, and then his body dissipated, and he turned into the essence of dragon qi again, and floated towards me, and then burrowed into my nose.
For a moment, my mind was buzzing, and it was all my master's way of waving his hands again and again. Gradually, I found that the breath of my master's waving palm and the artistic conception of the phoenix flapping its wings were slowly overlapping. At that moment, somewhere in my mind seemed to have opened up, as if I had come to a misunderstanding when I was cultivating the Dragon Capture Technique, and now I had finally found the right path.
The image came to an abrupt end, and there was still a glint of gold in my eyes. At this time, I suddenly found that there was a yellow talisman attached to the middle of the chain, and I felt that as long as I tore off this yellow talisman, I could break the formation.
Without thinking about it, I stepped over, and then mechanically reached out and tore off the yellow talisman.
In an instant, Lao Li beside him burst into gas and disappeared, the ground trembled slightly, and Lao Li's voice was amplified countless times: "Thank you Engong for coming to the rescue, you go out first, lest my body be born and hurt Engong!" β
