Li Bing and his entourage, this day wandered to a small village under the high mountain,

They were surprised that in this typical mountain village, there were no poultry, not even dogs.

Zhang Yuanshan opened the compass, looked around, and said strangely: "There seems to be an extremely strong spiritual power here, but it is not a yin and evil qi. ”

Li Bing also felt quite strange, and when he saw a woman walking towards him in the village, Li Bing stepped forward to say hello and chatted with the peasant woman.

When the peasant woman saw that these five outsiders were extremely friendly, and there were two women among them, she was not wary, and with the enthusiasm peculiar to the mountain people, she began to gossip with a few people.

Li Bing and they learned that this small village is called Xiaochenzhuang, the people of the village, composed of multiple surnames, here is like Tao Yuanming's paradise, the people of the village, in the past, it can be said that they are almost next door to the world, and they have lived here for generations.

The mountain on the side of the village, called Chenling by the locals, is steep, lush with vegetation, except for the occasional person who goes up the mountain to collect firewood and hunt, few people usually go up,

Li Bing pondered for a while, then asked with a smile: "This aunt, may I ask, why don't you see chickens, ducks, geese and dogs in this village?" ”

The peasant woman sighed and said, "Hey, I mentioned it, in the past, almost every household in our village had chickens and ducks, but a year ago, something strange happened in the village, and all the poultry raised by everyone disappeared inexplicably, and later, even the dog that took care of the house disappeared." ”

Speaking of this, she looked a little scared, hesitated for a moment and said: "There are young and strong people in the village, who began to spontaneously watch the night, trying to catch the thief, but unexpectedly, nothing was found, strange things still kept happening, and what was even more frightening was that one night, a young man on duty at night, suddenly went crazy, crying and laughing all day long, saying that he saw a dragon." ”

When Li Bing and the others heard this, they couldn't help but perk up, and hurriedly asked if there were any other phenomena.

The peasant woman was just scared, and she couldn't say why, she just said that the madman often shouted in the village, that the dragon was the dragon king of the mountain, because there was no one to sacrifice, so the dragon king was angry, so he went down the mountain into the village and ate all the chickens, ducks and poultry.

Seeing that the peasant woman couldn't say anything anymore, Li Bing and the others had to give up.

After the peasant woman left, Zhang Yuanshan smiled and said: "Li Bing, we have found the answer, it is really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it." ”

Li Bing was also very happy, and said happily: "Yes, the name of this mountain is Chenling, and the village under the mountain is also called Xiaochenzhuang, the zodiac, the rat, the ugly cow, the tiger, the rabbit, the dragon, the snake, the horse, the sheep, the monkey, the rooster, the dog, the pig, it can be seen that this mountain and the village are inextricably linked to the dragon, not to mention what the aunt said just now, the strange things in the village, and what the madman said, it can be concluded that this is the 'dragon' tossing, and this dragon should be on this mountain." ”

Zhao Wan'er said in surprise: "Dragon, sure enough, there is a legendary dragon king, is there really a dragon king in the green dragon array." ”

Li Bing smiled and said: "Wan'er, I don't know, there are too many strange things along the way, so let's look at this treacherous mountain, not to mention that the locals rarely go up, we will rush back today, buy ropes, machetes and other tools, and tomorrow morning, we will go up the mountain to find out." ”

Everyone was quite excited because they were about to uncover the mystery of the legendary dragon, talking and laughing along the way, telling each other about the various legends they had heard about the dragon.

After returning to the small hotel where he stayed, he was born in the mountains and had experience in robbing tombs, so he went to the town to purchase many necessary tools and prepare for mountaineering in case of accidents.

Early the next morning, after everyone checked their bags, they came to the foot of Chenling Mountain excitedly.

At this time, it was already early summer, and although the sun was shining on my body, I felt a little stuffy, but it was not spicy.

Qian Yiduo was optimistic about the mountainous terrain, brandished a machete, and cleared the weeds more than half a person high in front, and everyone carefully followed closely behind, heading towards the mountain.

Finally, when they reached the halfway point of the mountain, everyone was already tired and sweaty, exhausted, so they had to find a clean stone and sit down.

Zhao Wan'er, who was drinking water, suddenly let out a surprised "huh", she pointed not far ahead, and shouted: "Look at it, is there anything in that dense forest." ”

When everyone heard this, their spirits were lifted, and they all looked in the direction that Zhao Wan'er pointed to,

I saw a lush dense forest, faintly revealing a yellow-brown thing,

"The temple, it looks like the eaves of a temple." , Li Bing shouted excitedly,

Several people were very excited, and immediately packed their bags and struggled to move in that direction.

I finally came to that place through the dense mountain grass,

Sure enough, it's a small temple, it looks like it's been in disrepair, and no one has been here for a long time.

The surrounding area is overgrown with weeds, and it is surprising that although the temple is dilapidated, it looks empty inside, and there is no weed clogging.

There is a plaque on the temple, and the handwriting on it has long been unclear, hanging there diagonally,

A few people were excited, but they began to be a little nervous.

They took a few deep breaths, mustered up their courage, and entered the small temple.

Although the sun was shining outside, as soon as I entered the small temple, I immediately felt as if my body was shrouded in a layer of cold air, and I couldn't help but shiver.

"Bang", the sound from the temple gate frightened everyone, and almost ran away.

I saw that under the sunlight at the entrance of the temple, a few pieces of rotten wood were scattered, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the plaque hanging at the gate of the temple fell down for some reason and shattered.

The group of people who were frightened for a moment began to look at this small temple carefully,

This is a lonely small temple, there is no Daxiong Treasure Palace, the whole temple is just such a building, and the small temple is built by the mountain, and the temple is the mountain of the mountain.

In the middle of the small temple, there is a headless statue covered in dust and dust, and there are some colored mud in the ground.

Several people knew in their hearts that these strange colored mud must have been caused by the head of the god falling to the ground.

When everyone was wondering which god was being offered in this small temple in the deep mountains, Zhang Yuanshan smiled and said: "I know, this is a dragon king temple, and this statue should be the dragon king." ”

A few other people were quite puzzled, Zhang Yuanshan walked in front with a smile, dusted off a small clay sculpture on the side of the statue, and the dust raised made several people choke and cough several times.

When the dust fell, everyone found that the small clay sculpture on the side was the head of a human turtle.

Everyone looked at each other and smiled, no wonder Zhang Yuanshan was so sure, this was a dragon king temple, it turned out that he found the turtle prime minister on the side,

In the deep mountains, how can there be such a lonely dragon king temple, who and when was this dragon king temple built?

Li Bing had doubts in his heart, and began to carefully study this small dilapidated temple,
