Long Jiu smiled slightly and said, "According to the information I have, I'm afraid this Shending is neither in Longmen nor Mengmen. ”

Long Jiu's words surprised me and Wen Qingshan, I didn't expect that our careful analysis would be denied by Long Jiu so quickly.

Wen Qingshan hurriedly asked, "Why does the Ninth Master think so?" ”

Long Jiu replied: "It's not a secret, in fact, I have been tracking down the whereabouts of the Sifang Shending, and I also found a secret map of the Tibetan Ding, and learned that the Sifang Shending is in the Jinshan Gorge, and ten years ago, I took someone to secretly investigate the Jinshan Canyon." At first, I also thought that the most likely location was Mengmen Mountain, because Mengmen Mountain is actually a huge rock located in the middle of the river, which is more consistent with the record that the Shending was hidden in the river. So I focused on the Mengmen Mountain, but found nothing, and then I surveyed the Longmen and Shimen, but still found nothing, so I went to Hukou to investigate. ”

When I heard the mouth of the pot, I couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and asked: "Could the mouth of the pot be the mouth of the Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River?" ”

Long Jiu nodded: "That's right, this is the place..."

Although I've never been to Hukou Falls, I've heard of the largest yellow waterfall in the world, and I haven't seen it on TV once or twice.

I immediately said, "It is impossible for King Yu Shending to hide in the mouth of the pot..."

Long Jiu smiled and asked rhetorically, "Why are you so sure?" ”

"I can think of it, the water flow around the mouth of the pot is very turbulent, how can King Yu hide the Shending under it..."

Wen Qingshan also frowned and analyzed: "The rock structure in the Hukou area is feldspar mixed sandstone and conglomerate sandstone with silty mudstone, and the stratigraphic level belongs to the Ermaying Formation, and the geological age is about 200 million years ago. This rock structure has a high heterogeneous content, poor cementation, and is easy to weathering and denudation. It is easy to form faults, which is why Hukou Waterfall is formed, but this rock is not easy to form large caves. If King Yu really hid the god under this rock structure, he would have to risk the rock layer breaking and causing the cave to collapse. ”

After listening to Wen Qingshan's analysis, Long Jiu said with a smile: "The three brothers Wen are really thoughtful, you are right, the feldspar mixed sandstone structure is indeed not easy to form large caves, but the geology in the Hukou area is not all this kind of structure. ”

"Could it be that the Ninth Master, what have you discovered?" Wen Qingshan hurriedly asked.

Long Jiu nodded and said, "After investigation, we found that the rocks distributed on the surface of the Hukou area are indeed feldspar mixed sandstone, but in the river channel downstream of Hukou Waterfall, there is a long slippery limestone layer distributed, and this long slippery limestone layer is almost tiled under the riverbed. ”

"And this kind of thing...?" Wen Qingshan had a look of surprise on his face, but I could hear it in a fog,

He asked, "Is there anything special about limestone?" ”

Wen Qingshan replied: "Not only is there nothing special, but limestone is the most common type of rock... I just didn't expect that there is also limestone in the Hukou area, and limestone is the most prone to karst caves. Speaking of this, Wen Qingshan suddenly thought of something again, raised his head and said to Long Jiu: "Wait... Isn't the downstream of Hukou Waterfall a ten-mile dragon trough...? Ninth Master, is the long limestone layer you mentioned under the Ten Mile Dragon Trough...? ”

Long Jiu nodded: "Exactly... And it's very likely that that long limestone layer was not naturally formed..."

Hearing Long Jiu say this, I hurriedly asked, "Ninth Master, what do you mean by this?" Isn't it natural, is it artificial? ”

"Hehe, it's not artificial."

"It's not naturally formed, it's not artificial, so how is it formed?" I asked, puzzled.

"You may not be able to say it, I'll show you this..."Long Jiu said this, took out a Wen Jiàn bag from under the mahogany coffee table, he took out an A3 paper from the Wen Jiàn bag and handed it to us, that A3 paper was a map, because I had seen a three-dimensional topographic map before, so I could see at a glance that it was a three-dimensional topographic map, but I couldn't understand it. I turned my head and asked Wen Qingshan, who was staring at the map seriously: "Boss Wen, what's drawn on this?" ”

Wen Qingshan frowned and said, "This is a three-dimensional topographic map of a river, if I guessed correctly, it must be a three-dimensional topographic map of the area around Hukou Waterfall, right?" ”

"That's right, it's a three-dimensional topographic map from Hukou Waterfall to Shililong Trough." Long Jiu said, stretching out his hand and pointing at a slightly darker ribbon area on the map: "This is the Ten Mile Dragon Groove." ”

When I looked at it, the ribbon really looked like a river, and in the middle of that ribbon, there seemed to be a darker image hidden, and when I looked closely, the deeper image actually looked like a dragon...

I couldn't help but ask, "Why is there a dragon printed on this river?" Is it for the sake of the surface, this is the ten-mile dragon trough? ”

Long Jiu smiled: "Hehe, this dragon can't be printed, this is exactly the distribution of the long slippery limestone layer I just said." ”

"What...?" Long Jiu's words surprised both Wen Qingshan and me, I never imagined that the topography of the limestone layer would take on the shape of a dragon...

I was stunned for a while before I came to my senses, raised my head and asked Long Jiu, "Ninth Master, how can this happen?" ”

Long Jiu didn't answer me, but said to Wen Qingshan with a smile: "The third brother Wen should be able to understand." ”

Wen Qingshan didn't say a word, he immediately took the picture over, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, he looked at it for a while, seemed to finally understand something, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "I know, this long slippery limestone layer is actually transformed by the body of a real dragon..."

"What...?" I thought I had misheard, a dragon turned into a hard rock...? It's incredible.

But Long Jiu nodded: "That's right... And this is a very large dragon body, you see, the length of this ten-mile dragon trough is more than 4,500 meters, and this slippery ribbon-like limestone layer accounts for almost one-eighth of the length of the ten-mile dragon trough, which means that the length of this giant dragon is more than 600 meters, and the diameter of the body is between ten and twenty meters..."

When I heard this, I couldn't help but gasp, when I was turned into a dragon, it was also a giant dragon, and its length was only tens of meters, but even then, I felt that it was extremely huge, if it was a dragon with a body length of more than six hundred meters and a body diameter of more than ten meters, what kind of terrifying concept would it be, it was simply a behemoth...

Moreover, Xu Yu once told me that the body of a dragon cannot become infinitely larger, and how big a dragon can become is closely related to its own cultivation, and the higher the cultivation level, the greater the change can be. And with such a huge body, the cultivation of such a huge dragon may have reached the peak of the realm. Why, then, does its body petrify?

I expressed the doubts in my heart, and Long Jiu explained: "That's because this dragon has died, because the dragon is transformed by the aura of heaven and earth, and generally speaking, after the dragon dies, its body will also turn into aura, but there is one exception. ”

"What's the situation?" I hurriedly asked.

Long Jiu replied: "That is, this dragon is not really dead, and its soul is still in its body, but its soul is either sealed by some force, and it cannot control the dragon body, so that the dragon body cannot move, and over time, it turns into a physical structure similar to hard rock, and this process is called petrification." It's just that different types of dragons have different types of bodies that turn into different types of stones. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Ryujiu explained, "For example, the body of a fire dragon will generally turn into a rock similar to igneous rock, and the body of a water dragon will turn into a rock similar to jade. ”

After listening to what Long Jiu said, Wen Qingshan asked on the side: "Then dare to ask Jiu Ye, what type of dragon will turn into limestone in the body?" ”

Long Jiu waved his hand and replied, "No, in fact, the dragon body is not directly turned into limestone, but into a special kind of rock, just because this rock is also rich in carbonates, so the instrument identifies it as limestone." In fact, this rock is much harder than limestone, and as for the dragon body that formed this rock, it mainly comes from the wood dragon family. ”

"Wood Dragons...?" I was slightly stunned.

Long Jiu continued: "Among the Five Elements Dragon Clan, the largest is the Earth Dragon, which can become like a mountain, and with the smallest size of the Wood Dragon, a Wooden Dragon of such a large size can be said to be extremely rare... So I think it's very likely that this rock dragon body is from the Wood Dragon Venerable... I'm afraid that only his body can be so huge. ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but blurt out: "What... That's the body of the Wood Dragon Venerable...? "I never imagined that the Wood Dragon Venerable, one of the Five Elements Dragon Venerable, had already died and petrified.

Wen Qingshan took a deep breath and said slowly: "According to legend, the ten-mile dragon trough is made of the dragon's body, so it is named the ten-mile dragon trough, I didn't expect this legend to be true, in this dragon trough, there is really a giant dragon lying down..." Could it be that the dragon soul of the Wood Dragon Venerable was sealed in the Yu King Divine Ding, and the Yu King Divine Ding was hidden in the petrified dragon body? ”

Long Jiu nodded and replied, "I think that's the case... The five elements are mutually reinforcing, and Jin can overcome the wood, the Quartet Divine Ding is cast from the copper of the first mountain of the god realm, which is the golden pole, and the dragon soul used to seal the dragon of the wood is the most suitable thing. ”
