Volume 5: Dongting Dragon Shadow _ Chapter 89: Dongting Dragon Shadow
I feel very strange, how can there be a corpse of a Taoist priest in the river?
When he turned around and asked Erxin, he was also at a loss, and he didn't know what was going on at all.
Since the floating corpse of the Taoist priest appeared on the river, I began to pay attention to the riverside, stared at the river for a while, and found that there was another floating corpse not far away, dressed quite ordinary, after Erxin saw the package on his body, he said loudly, "Like a mage on the other side of the 100,000 mountains." ”
I asked Erxin how he knew, and Erxin said that he had dealt with the mage over there, and of course he could recognize his mage cloth bag.
Two corpses of people in the Xuanmen appeared one after another on the riverside, could it be that the two of them fought together, and finally fell into the river?
While we were looking at the two corpses, there were also many people on the boat, and an old man sighed, "There are floating corpses in this river almost every day, and many of them are people who can't think of suicide." ”
A middle-aged man crowded next to us pointed to the corpse he found before and said, "That person seems to be a Taoist priest, will Taoist priests also look for short-term sights?" ”
The old man sighed, "There are times when Taoist priests can't think about it, and you think it's so easy to realize the Tao. ”
Just when this circle of people was talking around, a woman in work clothes on the passenger boat said, "This corpse seems to have floated from the other side of Dongting Lake, and many have been found in the past half a month." ”
Er Xin and I glanced at each other, it seems that there is a big battle between the Xuanmen on the other side of Dongting Lake, otherwise how could there be so many corpses.
No matter what happened to Dongting Lake, Er Xin and I didn't want to be involved, you must know that now that the two of us have just escaped from the Ghost Gate, we will not put ourselves in danger again if we say anything.
The passenger boat continued to move, since the discovery of the floating corpse in the river, Er Xin and I stood on the side of the boat and stared at the vast river, the new corpse was not found, but found a strange boat going against the current, the big boat hung a huge white sail, the sail was painted with black runes, at the front of the boat, there were three Taoist priests standing side by side, the Taoist priest in the middle, holding a peach wood sword in both hands, I was startled, I thought it was the fourth uncle, although I wanted to see the fourth uncle, but if I suddenly met him, I still have a little weak heart.
However, when their boat approached, I found that the man was in his forties, with a wisp of beard, not the fourth uncle at all, but also quite a few fairy bones, and the other two Taoist priests pointed at the river, as if they were talking to this Taoist priest.
Behind these three Taoist priests, there are more than a dozen middle-aged Taoist priests, all of whom are dressed in Taoist uniforms, with white cloth bands wrapped around their hands and feet, and they look full of energy.
I didn't expect that all the people on this boat were Taoists, and the people on the passenger ship also felt rare, and they all looked at these Taoist priests, and the three Taoist priests glanced at us, their eyes paused on me and Erxin, and then turned their heads to look ahead.
When I was in the incense candle spell before, Songyueguan was happy and enlightened, and he could see at a glance that I had a heavy yin qi on my body, and I may have raised a little ghost, and from the situation of these three Taoist priests looking at me, I should also see that there was something wrong with me, but they went to Dongting Lake to have more important things to do, so they didn't bother to pay attention to me.
You can see the aura on my body at a glance, these three Taoist priests are definitely not ordinary Taoist priests, at least their ability is not below the two real people in Songyue Temple.
After they passed, Er Xin said, "There must be something big happening in Dongting Lake, otherwise, the Maoshan faction would not have passed with such fanfare." ”
Erxin is more knowledgeable than me, he said that it is the Maoshan faction, most of them can't be wrong, after saying this, he said to me again, "Wake up, or we will go to Dongting to have a look." ”
Although I also wanted to know what was going on in Dongting Lake, I thought about it for a while, and I felt that it was better not to provoke it, and Erxin didn't have any reason to go, just to say it, seeing that I didn't agree, I watched the boat of the Maoshan faction from a distance in the direction of Dongting.
Waiting for the boat to go away, Er Xin said again, judging from the style of this ship, the young man standing in the middle of the bow of the boat should be the deputy head of the Maoshan faction now, second only to Shen Qianshan's Chen Chengdao, in the Xuanmen, no one dares to underestimate him, the two middle-aged people beside him may also be the elders of the Maoshan faction, but Er Xin does not know him.
It seems that something really happened in Dongting Lake, otherwise the Maoshan faction would not have sent the deputy head of the sect over.
The passenger boat stopped at Chenglingji, and the three of us got off the boat, although we especially wanted to know what happened in Dongting Lake, but there was nowhere to inquire, and only the real Xuanmen people knew about these Xuanmen things.
After getting off the boat, we were about to eat something simple, and then change the boat to Wuhan, at this moment, we turned around and saw a big wooden boat in the middle of the river, such a wooden boat is very eye-catching, now the river is driving, either simple fishing boats, or steel cargo ships and passenger ships, like these two layers of wooden boats are very few.
The wooden boat came from upstream, and on the side of the second floor stood a young girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in gold and silver jewelry, and her appearance was also very symbolic, and there was an old man next to the girl, two young people, both of whom were holding cane-like things in their hands, and it seemed that they were magicians again, and they must also be heading to Dongting Lake.
At this time, I was extremely curious about what was going on in Dongting Lake, so much so that I attracted people from Daomen and Wumen.
Just as I was staring at the ship, Erxin next to me suddenly shouted into the boat, "Uncle Huangfu, Arnold!" ”
I was startled by his sudden shouting, as if he knew the people on the boat, who immediately turned their heads to stare at him.
The girl looked at it for a while, then suddenly pointed to Erxin and said to the others, "It's Erxin, let them lean the boat over!" ”
I didn't expect Erxin to really know these people.
A man beside the girl seemed unwilling, and the old man shook the bow of the boat, nodded and let his men row the boat over.
Just as they rowed over, I touched Erxin with my hand and asked, "Who are they?" ”
Er Xindao, who was greeting them, said, "My master's world friends, like us, are the Wuzhen clan among the ten clans of Wuxian. ”
While speaking, their boat had already docked, Erxin beckoned me to go up, I hesitated in my heart, this boat is obviously also going in the direction of Dongting, if I get on this boat, maybe I will be involved in this big right and wrong.
But the curiosity in my heart is really uncontrollable, plus Xiaoyue and Erxin are on the boat, if I don't go, I will part ways with them now, the girl is very generous, and pulled Erxin and Xiaoyue on the boat, and when she stretched out her hand to me, the trace of hesitation in my heart was also dispelled, pulling the girl's soft hand, and boarded the boat.
At this time, I looked at the people on the boat, the old man of the emperor was nearly fifty years old, his face was slender and long, and he didn't want the eyes of other old people to be yellow, his eyes were still black and white, full of energy, and he looked like a cultivator in the Xuanmen.
There were two men standing next to the girl, and the appearance of these two men was three points similar to Uncle Huangfu, and it seemed that they should be the sons of Uncle Huangfu.
The remaining seven or eight people have a lower status, and they seem to be members of the Wuzhen clan.
Erxin will introduce us one by one, the old man of Huangfu is called Huangfu Liuyi, and the girl is called Huangfu Arnold, the two men in their twenties are indeed the two sons of Huangfu Liuyi, one is called Huangfu Zheng, and the other is called Huangfu Zhen, but the man called Huangfu Zheng does not seem to welcome us.
After the introduction, the old man of the emperor led us to the second floor, served the tea, the emperor of Arnold also specially gave the little moon some pastries to eat, the boat is very magnificent, the tables, chairs, doors and windows are very elegant, and there is a faint sandalwood, after the old man of the emperor is seated, ask Erxin why he is here, Erxin said that after his master passed away, he wanted to go to Shanxi to join his uncle, and encountered a little trouble on the way, so he took the boat to here.
When Erxin asked why they appeared here, the old man of Huangfu hesitated slightly, but did not answer immediately, and Huangfu Arnold said beside him, "Dad, tell Erxin, many people have more strength." ”
Uncle Huangfu pondered for a moment, and then said, "There are frequent people who fall into the water and disappear in Dongting Lake, have you heard about this?" ”
I said in my heart, this kind of thing is not a big deal, there are people missing everywhere in this world, how can Erxin know.
Erxin really shook his head, and the old man Huangfu paused for a while and said, "Some people say that there is a dragon in Dongting Lake." ”
Erxin hasn't spoken yet, but my heart is shocked, Dragon? Is there really such a mysterious creature in this world?
Although my heart trembled, I didn't speak, and since I entered this mystery, I have seen countless things that I couldn't have imagined before, and my world view has been refreshed again and again.
Erxin was stunned and said, "Dragon? Uncle Huangfu, are you telling the truth? ”
Huangfu Liuyi nodded slowly, "At first, I thought it was a rumor, in addition to the mysterious disappearance of many fishermen in Dongting Lake, there are often some animal skeletons on the shore, and many people in the Xuanmen say that they have seen dragon halos and dragon qi in Dongting Lake, so it seems that there must be a real dragon in Dongting Lake." ”
Hearing this, I finally understood why so many people from the Xuanmen flocked to Dongting Lake, it turned out that they came for this rumored dragon, in the "Hundred Arts", one of them is witchcraft magic weapons, including Chengjing sycamore wood, lightning strike rhinoceros horn, these are all good materials for making magic weapons.
But the best thing to sacrifice and refine the magic weapon is the dragon bone, but in the "Hundred Techniques Exorcism" magic weapon, there are only a few lines, and it is written that the dragon bone is a weapon, and the power is great, so there is no follow-up. Obviously, the person who wrote "Hundred Techniques Exorcism" didn't believe that he could get the keel.
Don't say that dragons don't exist, they exist, this thing is said to be big or small, it can soar through the clouds and mist, call the wind and rain, is it really something that these mortals can hold?
Erxin was stunned for a long time, and said that he was willing to go over and have a look together, if he was really lucky to get the dragon, we would just share some leftovers.
The Huang Fuzheng, who had a cold attitude, turned his face to Er Xin and said, "Okay, if you really get the dragon, you can only ask us to share the rest of the things." ”
It seems that he didn't want us to get on the boat, because he thought that there must be a real dragon in Dongting Lake, and he already regarded this dragon as his bag.
I heard that there is a dragon here, and the people in the Xuanmen have not rushed to come, not to mention that there is not, but it is really there, and it is difficult to say who will kill the deer, this person actually sees it as something in his own bag, or he has the means to subdue the dragon, and thinks that he is nine out of ten; Either that, or just a bubble in the brain.
Erxin smiled and didn't speak, and the boat passed through Chenglingji and headed towards the vast eight hundred miles of Dongting.
Although I wanted to see the form of the real dragon, I thought of the dead people who floated into the river, and I always felt that there was still a hidden danger here, and I felt a little uneasy in my heart.
