Is there really a dragon?

After all, I have been to school, the dragon is just a totem, in the past during the Republic of China, there were rumors that Yingkou fell dragon, and experts explained that it was actually a stranded whale. Is there really a dragon in this world? I'm afraid it's not an illusion, right?

But last time I was in Qingxu Cave, I did see the existence of a unicorn, could it be that the bottom of the water is really the Dragon Palace?

I can't believe it, if it's really a dragon, how can it be exposed?

I continued to inquire: "Eighth Master, don't look at me as small, I'm so deceitful, how can there really be a dragon in this world, and you have all seen it." ”

The eighth master looked away from the cards in his hand, glanced at me, glared and said: "You said that you are a child, adults don't believe what they say, there is really a dragon, and when it was discovered, many of us in Qingshan Town went to see it, and your grandparents have seen it." ”

After speaking, he looked around at the people around him, found an older old man, and asked, "Lao Zhang, did you go to see it at that time?" ”

It was Zhang Wan's person, Lao Zhang nodded, and said: "This is a real thing, at that time, many of us climbed the mountain to see, but I didn't see it, I just heard that there was really a dragon, and it was lying in the middle of the reservoir." ”

The eighth master smiled: "Lao Zhang, as honest as you are, how could you see that after the dragon appeared at that time, Qingtan Town arranged for the militia to guard it, and blocked the news, and the people in Qingshan Town were not allowed to approach at all at that time." ”

Lao Zhang blushed and said, "Song Laoba, I was stopped by the militia on the mountain, can you see it?" ”

The eighth master nodded and said, "Of course I saw it, and I almost touched it." ”

Lao Zhang didn't believe it and said he was bragging.

At this time, the atmosphere has been stirred up, and everyone has asked the eighth master to tell what happened.

So the eighth master remembered while playing cards.

In the 60s, when self-sufficiency was called, the county planned to build a Qingtan reservoir to make rational use of natural resources and build a hydroelectric power plant.

In '65, the prefecture approved the plan.

It is said that the reservoir was not planned to be built as big as it is now, but the old Qingtan Lake was dug deep and widened, and the difference between Qingtan and the downstream was used to build a power plant.

After the start of construction, it is planned to first pump a certain amount of water from Qingtan Lake, and then divert the water to expose the downstream riverbed so that the foundation can be laid and used as a dam.

At that time, the pumping was very smooth, and it was introduced into the terraces next to the downstream, and dozens of pumping machines were used continuously every day, and it was expected that within two days, the downstream riverbed would be exposed.

On the first day, the effect was very good, and the lake was half smaller in an instant, but as soon as the next day dawned, people found that the pumping machine was still working overnight, but after the night passed, the lake did not have less water, but returned to its previous appearance.

The person in charge found the team responsible for guarding the equipment, and the team said that before the shift change, the lake water was still very little, and they didn't want to change shifts for less than half an hour, but there was so much more lake water.

The person in charge was very helpless, it was a big collective at that time, and it was a big group with dedication, and the team members had worked hard all night, so they could only smoke again.

At this time, the person in charge kept an eye on it, he found a few militiamen, guarded there, and waited until the shift was changed, observing Qingtan Lake, he didn't believe that this pool of lake water was really filled in half an hour.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, an observing militiaman came running over and said that something evil was wrong.

The person in charge hurriedly ran over with the militia and found that the water in Qingtan Lake was full again.

The person in charge hurriedly asked what was going on.

And those militiamen are a little distracted, as if they don't want to say.

The person in charge said angrily, now the collective interests, what can't be said, if something happens, let's discuss it together.

At this time, the militia told the person in charge what he had seen in the morning.

It turned out that in the morning, the sky was bright, and the militia who were observing found that the middle of the lake began to fog.

Cheongdam Lake is not big, but it seems that the fog seems to have started from the middle of the lake, and it only lasted for a certain extent, and it did not reach the lake at all.

It's just that the fog is getting thicker and thicker.

Several militiamen were curious, and they all stared at it, and suddenly found that there was a bright light in the middle of the fog.

At this time, they wondered if it was the fisherman who had come to steal fish while he was on the lake, so they shouted at the fog and fired a warning gun.

But the light didn't seem to care about them at all, just swaying in the mist.

At the same time, they found that the water in the lake was slowly rising.

At this time, the militia realized the strangeness of the matter, and the people in the mountains were a little superstitious, and it was estimated that there was definitely something in the fog, and the bright light felt unusual.

The militia did not dare to decide whether to advance or retreat without authorization, so they sent someone to find the person in charge.

Hearing this, I suddenly thought that this bright light was not the eyes of a dragon, and hurriedly asked the eighth master.

When everyone heard it, they were not happy, just listen to it, what is wrong?

The eighth master did not answer me, but continued to speak.

When the person in charge came to the lake, the fog had already dispersed, and the lake returned to its original position, and the remaining militiamen, seeing the fog, did not dare to shout again, but just stood by the shore and quietly watched the water rise again.

The person in charge said angrily: "You have all gone to school, and now you are all paying attention to science, you are still old feudal, no matter what he is, you don't want to find a way, maybe it is the surrounding residents, who don't want us to build a reservoir, and deliberately pretend to be a ghost." ”

But after all, it's happened.

Today's construction period has to be pushed back.

As the person in charge, he is naturally difficult to get out of the matter, and now he can only continue, and he will personally stay here tonight to see what went wrong.

That night, the person in charge took a few militiamen and set up a tent next to it, and brought binoculars, guns and ammunition.

Because the water from the reservoir had to be diverted to the farmland downstream without delaying the crops, the time was chosen for winter.

The winter in the mountains is colder, and on the edge of the lake, it is naturally colder, and the teams responsible for pumping water actually spend the night in a farmhouse not far away, only after a while, they come out to check once.

Although the person in charge only knows the situation now, it is not easy to blame, after all, people's hearts are long.

The militia with him, on the surface, didn't say anything, and he didn't want to do it in his heart, but he was a character after all, and everyone drank a little wine together that night to warm up their bodies.

But as they drank, everyone talked about this strange incident, and some people suspected that there was a dragon in this reservoir, because there was a story of a fish demon passed down in the past.

Hearing this, I wanted to interrupt again, because when I mentioned the fish demon, I naturally thought of Uncle Taishi removing the fish scales for the landlord, but everyone was listening to it with relish, and I could only keep the words in my stomach.

didn't want to be alone, but he took the initiative to say it, he heard from his relatives in Qingtan Town that there had indeed been a fish demon in Qingtan Town before, saying that the fish demon was the guard of the Dragon King, just like the rushing Erba and Ba Bo Ben in "Journey to the West".

Sure enough, everyone blamed him for interrupting, and they all asked the eighth master to continue.

The person in charge naturally didn't believe in the words of the ghosts, and laughed at the militia to scare himself.

But as he was talking, he suddenly heard a sound outside the tent on the lake.

At that time, the group of people instantly quieted down, listening carefully to the surface of the lake, like the sound of fish churning.

The person in charge was not afraid, took the lead and went out, shining the flashlight on the lake, and found that there was nothing, maybe some other sound, everyone heard it wrong. But the militiamen were a little scared and wanted an excuse to leave.

The person in charge said angrily that he stayed outside the tent at night, nothing happened, and made a fuss.

So he asked the militia to help build a fire, and he wrapped himself in a military coat and sat by the lake.

But the next morning, when the militia in the tent woke up, they found that the fire by the lake was still hot, but the person in charge sitting next to it had disappeared.

Everyone hurriedly searched everywhere and shouted everywhere, but no one answered.

At this time, the sky will be bright, and the fog will rise again on the surface of the lake, which has become small.

And everyone is also prepared, some of them speculate that the dragon king in this fog is the dragon king, he swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog, and secretly diverted the water to let the lake rise again. And the person in charge was probably captured by the fish demon under the Dragon King.

Soon, the fog was bright again.

And the militia is no longer ambiguous, after all, the person in charge is gone, and it is difficult to explain.

But everyone didn't dare to go into the water, so they discussed, paid attention, and shot a flare into the fog to see what was in the fog.

Everyone makes a stance, just in case it's really the dragon king, then they can only run.

One of the militiamen, facing the fog, fired flares.

I saw flares, parabolas across the sky, falling into the fog, and then exploding. The dazzling red light finally illuminated the center of the lake.

I saw that there was an ancient flower boat parked there, and in the center of the flower boat, there was a big word "Dian" written on it.
