Chapter 531: Story
My coughing tears came out, and Haruko helped me pat my back for a long time, so I was relieved, and asked the owner of the soda stall with tears in my eyes: "Big brother, what does this have to do with opening up the world?" ”
The owner of the soda stall said: "You don't know this, after Pangu opened the world, there were no human beings directly, but a group of ancient divine beasts appeared first, and dragons were one of them."
These divine beasts, in order to compete for territory, have fought a lot of wars with each other, the dragon because the sky can fly, the water can swim, the clouds and rain, not afraid of water and fire, in many wars, are dominant, so the dragon's territory, it is getting bigger and bigger, the dragon's strength, naturally also represents the decline of other divine beasts, but no one is willing to fail, the beast must also be.
Therefore, later, those divine beasts who were defeated at the hands of the dragon united and set up a game, called the Trapped Dragon Bureau.
They first dug this shallow pit in this place, filled it with water, then blew away all the clouds in the low sky with the wind, and then lured the dragon out of their territory with a large amount of gold.
The dragon was very greedy for gold, and for a moment was squinted by the brilliant light, and chased after the golden light, flying farther and farther until there was no longer a cloud in the sky.
But at that time, the dragon's eyes only had gold, and he didn't see the situation around him at all, let alone realize the danger, just when the dragon was about to catch up with the gold, the phoenix, Peng bird, and giant eagle suddenly pounced from behind and launched a surprise attack on the dragon.
In normal circumstances, the dragon would have been able to fly on other clouds casually, but those big birds had already prepared to flap their huge wings together and blow the cloud that the dragon had come from in the air.
Although dragons can fly, the flight of dragons is different from the flight of birds, birds fly by wings, and dragons do not have wings, they can fly in the air by driving clouds.
But now the dragon has been ambushed by other divine beasts, and when he arrives in this area where there are no clouds at all in the low sky, although he can rely on himself to spit clouds and fog to support in the air for a while, but there are also phoenixes, Jinpeng and giant eagles in the air, these three divine birds are also quite powerful, although one-on-one fighting, it is not necessarily the opponent of the dragon, but the three of them joined forces, and they were prepared for a long time, and they still had the upper hand properly.
The dragon tried to jump into the air several times and drove away on the clouds, but several times it was blocked by the three divine birds, and the dragon was suppressed at a low altitude for a long time, and the dragon's ability to spray clouds and spit fog also decreased, and gradually could not take off, and was suppressed to the ground.
As soon as the dragon landed, it was besieged by a group of divine beasts on the ground, such as lions, tigers, wolves and leopards.
The dragon is powerful in long-range combat, you need to take off or go into the water to make a big move, on the ground is a four-cornered snake, hand-to-hand combat is not as strong as a lion and tiger, so it was beaten and fled, in a panic, he saw a piece of water here, the dragon immediately jumped into the water, thinking that he could finally turn over, but he didn't expect that this water was shallow and even his body was not enough, and he still had no way to use his skills on the water.
At this time, the phoenix, Jinpeng, and giant eagle who had besieged him before also came, and they had been hovering at a low altitude, and the lion, tiger, wolf and leopard surrounded the water, and the dragon was trapped in this place. ”
Speaking of which, the owner of the soda stall suddenly stopped talking.
Qingzi looked anxious, and said with a little coquettishness: "Boss, hurry up, don't sell Guanzi, okay?" ”
The owner of the soda stall smiled and said, "It's not that I don't want to continue to tell it, it's that this story ends here." ”
Haruko said, "What about after the dragon is trapped?" Did you run away? Killed in battle? Captured alive? Or did it turn defeat into victory? There has to be an ending. ”
The owner of the soda stall said: "There must be an ending, but no one knows, you think, it was just when the world was opened, the battle between the ancient divine beasts, at that time, but there was no one yet, how do we know the result of this battle?"
However, the name of our village came from that time, it used to be called Sleepy Dragon Pond, and later there was a village, and the village was called Sleepy Dragon Village. ”
This boss tells this story, if I have to evaluate it, it is just two words: absurd.
What kind of thing is this thing called, it is neither Chinese nor Western, it is not local, it is purely a mixture of several completely unrelated myths and legends, which is almost a folk tale skewer.
He just talked about those dragons, phoenixes, I don't feel like dragons and phoenixes, but dragons and phoenixes, when did I hear that Chinese dragons have greed for gold, I have only seen such plots from foreign movies, I have never heard of Chinese dragons like this.
Although the English translation of dragon is dragon, and the English translation of phoenix is phoenix, but I never think that it is the same thing, it is simply different totems in different cultures, the Chinese dragon is the majesty of the Son of Heaven, and the Chinese phoenix is the mother of the world, when did the price drop to fight with the lion and tiger? Moreover, it has not yet been won.
Also, there are many loopholes in this story, since at that time, there were not even human beings, so how did this story pass down among the human community?
But I'm too lazy to compare this with the owner of the soda stall, we are here to inquire about the news, as long as he quickly tells us what is going on on the road ahead, why there are so many cars here, no matter how absurd his story is, anyway, I don't lose anything by listening to it for free.
I thought that after the boss finished telling the origin of the name of the village, he would immediately start talking about what was going on in front of him, and even if he didn't say it, Haruko would ask directly.
As a result, what I didn't expect was that Haruko actually listened to this absurd story very attentively, because she didn't get the final result, she was particularly depressed, saying that the boss was deliberate, and she must have been a storyteller before, and she was used to selling guanzi and keeping buttons, so she had to wait for someone to listen to it tomorrow.
The owner of the soda stall had to comfort her, saying: "Eh, girl, my story is also passed down by the elders, when I was a child, how my grandmother told me, I learned from you, my grandmother told me, in the end, I don't know the ending, I can't just make up an ending, then, I won't be lying to you."
If you don't believe me, you can ask the rest of the people in this village, we know this story in our village, both men and women, young and old, you can go and ask them to see if they tell the same story as mine? ”
I was stunned, everyone told the same version, this is impossible, and there are multiple versions of the story that has really been handed down, if it is exactly the same, then there is a problem.
