Chapter 136: Earth Dragon

"Hehe, I can't hide it from you." When Xiaopang heard this, he laughed, and then said to the old man with a smile: "Old man, I'm just curious, what's in the bottle on the very edge, why haven't I seen it before?" ”

"Haha, of course you haven't seen it, that's the earth dragon! I spent millions on a rare item from a fisherman! Even tell you the truth, this thing is not comparable to a tiger whip and a deer whip, as long as a wine cup, you are guaranteed to be alive and well for most of the year! The old man said, smiled, and then took Ms. Yang's hand and glanced at her very ambiguously.

When Ms. Yang saw this, her face was flushed with shame. This woman is already charming, and it seems to be even more attractive at this time, but looking at her appearance, the old man doesn't seem to be bragging, short oil, is it possible, this old man who stepped into the coffin with one leg was really made fierce by this thing like ***?

Thinking of this, I looked back again, the old man saw this, walked over directly, took out a small wine cup in the cupboard and unscrewed the faucet and put a little medicinal wine out, still far away, a commotion smell came with the strong smell of alcohol, I frowned, but saw the old man quite proudly put it on the coffee table in front of him.

Chubby came over to take a look, the medicinal wine seemed to be ordinary, but the smell was strong, and the wine was slightly yellow, and it didn't look like a big deal.

"Does this thing work that well?" Chubby said, picked up the wine glass and sniffed it on the side of his nose, and then handed it to me with some disgust, I also sniffed it like he did, and I choked on a cough, "What kind of smell is this?"

As I spoke, I put my glass on the table and covered my mouth, my eyes so hard that I couldn't open them. When Mr. Mao heard this, he was a little unhappy, picked up the wine glass and drank it and scolded us for not having knowledge, and I didn't know how powerful this baby was when we were used to seeing ordinary objects.

As soon as I heard this, I was a little unconvinced, and said in my heart, no matter how miraculous this medicine and wine were, could an old man be more courageous than a young man in his early twenties?

But after listening to the old man's words, I regretted it. It turned out that what was soaked in this medicinal wine was really a rare thing that was rare in a hundred years.

The earth dragon is not a dragon, but a very rare and strange creature. Nowadays, it can also be seen in coastal areas, but the earth dragons sold on the market are actually an eel with the scientific name "Bolu beantooth snake eel", which is not the same thing as Mr. Mao.

Mr. Mao's earth dragon was bought from a fisherman at a sky-high price of several million, and its size and appearance are very different from the former. Speaking of this, some people may be curious, since it is not an eel, what is this earth dragon?

As far as I know, there are very few accounts of Tulong in China, and if there are, most of them are scattered in various folk texts. Among them, the most typical and detailed should be a Zhiwei novel in the Southern Dynasties, which has a chapter that once reads:

"Jiangling Zhao Mada, with alcohol as a business. In the midst of righteousness, the soil in the house suddenly rose from the ground. Observe the difference, and drink the soil day and night. I saw a thing come out, and its head was like a donkey, and there was no hole in the earth. and his grandmother died, and the neighbors heard the sound of the morning and night under the soil, like crying. Later generations dig the house, see a foreign body, stupid and move, unpredictable size, must be lost, called the earth dragon. ”

This passage is very simple, roughly meaning that there is an old man in Nanling, who sells wine for a living, one day, a dirt bag suddenly bulged up in her house, this person went to see it and thought it was very interesting, so he poured a little wine on it, and not long after, a mysterious creature with a head like a donkey was drilled out of the dirt bag, and surprisingly, there was no hole in the place where it was drilled, and no one knew how it came out.

When the old man died, the neighbors heard something screaming under the land, and it was as if they were crying. When the old man's children heard this, they dug the foundation, and as they dug and dug it, they saw a monster lying in the dirt and about to move. Because of various conditions, I can't see the size and shape of the thing. Later, after a while, the thing was gone, and after asking around, everyone learned that the name of the thing was "Earth Dragon".

In fact, the most important point of the many messages conveyed in this record is the sentence "the head is like a donkey", look at the things soaked in the glass jar, I felt that the ancients used words really vividly and concisely. Isn't this length, this shape, and this not square and round shape all the same as the shape of a donkey's brain?

After thinking about it carefully, I suddenly found a problem, although this earth dragon is peculiar, but the record does not say that this thing has any strange effect of strengthening the kidney and strengthening the essence, thinking of this, I asked the old man with a very rigorous academic spirit, "Old man, how do you know that this thing is so easy to use?" ”

"Me? Of course I tried! If you try it or not, it will definitely work! The old man said, quite proud, as soon as I heard this, I knew that the old man must have misunderstood, his face flushed, and he quickly waved his hand, "I'm not married yet, so let's get rid of it."

"Oh, that's okay! Try it, try it! The old man thought for a moment, smiled and spread his hands, I looked at the thing, I didn't dare to move, this thing is a bit dangerous, I want to drink it, there are only two possibilities, either useless or useful.

Although there is not a lot of contact with this kind of thing, there are some concepts between hearing and witnessing. If it is really as the old man said, no matter how strong the self-control is after drinking this kind of aphrodisiac thing, he will make a fool of himself. On the contrary, if there is no reaction at all, it is even more embarrassing. With their usual style, seeing that I didn't react, they must have thought that Lao Tzu was a little congenital. You know, for me, who has always had a good face, these two encounters are absolutely unbearable.

No, no, what's going on!

Thinking of this, I resolutely rejected Mr. Mao's kindness, and the old man saw this, and he was not reluctant, and then tasted the "fine wine" and told us some strange things about this "treasure".

Mr. Mao said that the name of this earth dragon was given by Emperor Yang of Sui, who was famous in Chinese history, of course, once the myths and legends are related to the "generation of strange people" of "wife and sister and sister killing brother and sister-in-law", then it is even more difficult for this story to be pure.
