117, Longtan Jiaoying [2/10]
Wang Zheng felt that the inspection was boring, and when he heard that something big had happened, he suddenly perked up and said loudly: "What's wrong?" ”
The soldier slammed the brakes, stopped the car with a swing tail, sweaty, and panted and said, "Jade Dragon Pond...... In the Jade Dragon Pond, which had been dry for decades, water suddenly appeared...... A big black snake jumped out of the pool and swallowed up a few workers who were quarrying at the edge of the pool! ”
"The serpent eats people?" Wang Zheng frowned: "Is it another otherworldly monster?" ”
"I don't know." The warrior shook his head and pursed his chapped lips.
Seeing this, Wang Zheng threw him a bottle of mineral water, and the soldier took the mineral water, flattered and said "Thank you, Commander", and couldn't wait to unscrew the cap of the bottle and pour most of the bottle in one go.
After quenching his thirst, the warrior breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "An old worker who saw the big snake with his own eyes said that the big black snake that jumped out of the Jade Dragon Pool was probably a legendary dragon. ”
"Jiaolong?" Wang Zhengqi said: "Why do you say that? ”
The soldier said, "The old worker said that he saw that the big snake seemed to have a pair of claws. He also said that before the big snake pounced out of the pool to eat people, there was a roar of a cow in the pool. In the legend, the dragon's cry is the same as the roar of a cow. ”
Wang Zheng nodded and said, "Whether it's a dragon or not, since that big snake has eaten people, then it has to let it die!" Let's go and see! ”
At that moment, he, Chunli and Liu Shuyao, together with the team of legionnaires who patrolled with him, rushed to the direction of Jade Dragon Pond.
Speaking of which, the place name "Jade Dragon Mountain" is still named after Jade Dragon Pond.
And the name of the Jade Dragon Pond is also quite mythical.
Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, there was a team of officers and soldiers who went into the mountains to exterminate a group of bandits, and when they were taking water next to a deep pool in the mountains, they suddenly saw a jade-colored real dragon, rushing out of the pool, soaring through the clouds and fog, and going straight up to the nine skies.
When the dragon flew for nine days, the thunderstorm was raging, and the storm roared. The jade dragon rode the wind and chased the lightning, and swam in the thunderstorm for more than an hour, and then disappeared into the clouds and disappeared without a trace.
The officers and soldiers who saw this scene were collectively frightened. The officer who led the team was also trembling, and no longer dared to stay in the Jade Dragon Mountain, and even took care of suppressing the bandits, and when the rain had not stopped, he led the team to flee the mountain.
Afterwards, the officer who was ineffective in suppressing the bandits was dismissed from his military position, and the soldiers were all beaten with military sticks. However, although the bandits were not suppressed, the legend of the jade dragon flying into the sky still spread from the mouths of officers and soldiers.
When the legend of the Jade Dragon spread, the deep pool that was not originally called the Jade Dragon Pond became the Jade Dragon Pond in people's mouths, and the name of the mountain was changed to the Jade Dragon Mountain.
And the bandit leader in the mountains, after hearing this legend, suddenly felt that he was afraid that he was not a real dragon descending to earth and being blessed by heaven? So he sacrificed blood to the sky, ascended the throne as the "emperor", canonized the concubine, rewarded 100 officials, supported 500 soldiers, and rebelled. Then within a month, it was easily extinguished by the imperial court......
In short, Jade Dragon Mountain and Jade Dragon Pond were named after the "Jade Dragon", and many people believed in this legend in ancient times, and finally even entered it into the local chronicles by the government.
In modern society, no one believes in the legend of the jade dragon flying into the sky anymore.
But......
Now that the aura has recovered and the otherworldly monsters have appeared, then in addition to the ordinary animals that have evolved extraordinarily like General Tie, it seems that it is not impossible for some legendary native monsters to appear, such as dragons and the like?
In short, with great expectation and interest, Wang Zheng rushed to the Jade Dragon Pond located in the south of the base, in a valley.
The source of the Jade Dragon Pond is a cave in the valley.
The cave was more than two meters in diameter, and water gushed out of the cave, and over the centuries, a huge deep pool was washed out of the cave.
However, decades ago, the cave no longer produced water, and the Jade Dragon Pond slowly dried up and became a large pit.
Because of the surrounding area of the Jade Dragon Pond, there are excellent quality stones, the base has opened a quarry here, there are more than 200 workers working in this area, and ten armed soldiers are responsible for the safety of the quarry, and be alert to the otherworldly monsters that may appear at any time.
However, the otherworldly monster did not appear, but in the jade dragon pool inside the quarry, a big snake suspected to be the legendary "Jiaolong" burst out, and ate several quarrymen in one go.
At this moment, the workers of the quarry have all been evacuated. Around the Jade Dragon Pond, there were only twenty legion soldiers who came with Wang Zheng, and ten soldiers who were originally on duty in the quarry.
The cave, which no longer came out of the water, was rumbling and gushing out of a clear mountain spring. Outside the cave, the deep pit that has been dry for many years and has been overgrown with shrubs and weeds, and at the bottom of it has accumulated a few feet of water.
Wang Zheng stood by the pool, looked at the cave that kept rushing out of the clear spring, and said, "Is it from that hole that the big snake came out?" ”
"Yes, yes."
The person in charge of the quarry, standing behind Wang Zheng tremblingly, stared at the cave with his eyes, looking ready to see that the situation was not good, and he stammered: "This cave, and, and the Jade Dragon Pond are one. Once the pond is filled with water, the cave will be submerged......"
"Alright." Wang Zheng waved his hand impatiently, interrupting the person in charge, and was about to ask the old worker who had seen the big black snake with his own eyes, when he suddenly heard a low and penetrating bull roar from the cave.
"Moo......"
The moment the bull's roar sounded, the face of the person in charge of the quarry changed drastically, and he crawled back with a rolling belt, shouting heartbreakingly: "Jiaolong is out!" Jiaolong has come out to eat people again! ”
Wang Zheng frowned unhappily, and before he could scold, he saw a fusiform snake head the size of a car and scales as big as a basin burst out of the cave opposite.
As soon as the huge snake head jumped out of the hole, it was holding a rifle, and twenty legionnaires and ten quarry guards were nervously on guard, and they pulled the trigger at the same time and fired wildly at the snake head.
Thirty rifles were fired at the same time, and the bullets rained down on the head of the snake.
However, when the bullet hit the snake's head, it only made a "clanging bell" sound, and then it bounced off as if it hit the steel plate!
Wang Zheng and Chunli and Liu Shuyao beside him could see clearly, the huge snake head that was hit by hundreds of bullets only had some small dents on the dark scales the size of its basin, and other than that, there was no damage!
And the few bullets that happened to hit its bowl-sized snake eyes were also blocked by its transparent eyelids. The bullet hit his eyelid and slid away as if it had hit a tough synovium.
"The hardness of this snake scale is as hard as the bulletproof steel plate of an armored car!"
Wang Zheng exclaimed: "This guy, I'm afraid it's really a Jiao!" ”
