Volume 1 The Years of the Mountain City Chapter 60 The Dragon Soul Recruitment
Time passes, and life has to go on. How many people are determined to change the world, only to find out in the end that it is the world that has changed them? For example, Ling Lang's insistence at the beginning never felt that he was a "good person", but he also did not feel that he was selfish. It's just that the people he came into contact with later, the things he experienced, with a grateful heart, gave him a little more responsibility. But he still can't be enthusiastic, he can't raise his arms and shout, he is still the same sentient beings.
In the past, his father was his idol. My father didn't have much of a dream, he just wanted to protect his small family, worked hard, gritted his teeth in this oven, and used all his strength to squeeze out a little nutrients to feed himself and the people around him. Of course it still is, and it should always be. If there are many points, it is to be influenced by Chen Lao Xu Lao and them, and try to make himself a good person.
Walking on the Shigang Bridge, the setting sun illuminates his shoulders and imprints on his face. On the roof of the house in the distance, there was already curling smoke rising, and every wisp was calling a child.
Thinking that he came back from the dragon group yesterday, before getting into the car, Xu Xudong quietly told him that it might not be long before the dragon soul would "summon" him, and he couldn't help but feel a little irritable. Staying on the bridge and looking at the river that can still flow under the bridge, one can't help but think a lot.
Before he heard about the dragon soul, he was full of admiration or curiosity. But he never longed for those big strokes that changed the entire dynasty at every turn, and he thought that he was still too far away from himself. So at the beginning, Kong Qingyan asked him, had he ever thought about joining the Dragon Soul? He never thought that one day he would really have to face such a "behemoth".
But it didn't take long for the dragon soul's notice to come down. The document said that he should choose a day to go to Huacheng, but it was noted below that it was best to make the trip on the third day after receiving the notice.
Huacheng is more than 400 kilometers away from Xiaoshan Town. Sitting in the familiar jeep of the dragon group, driving on the winding mountain road, Ling Lang's heart fluctuated, looking at the deep valleys outside the window, as if in a dream.
The jeep driver was like a thousand-year-old rock, and Ling Lang hadn't heard him speak for so long. And the Wu team in the passenger cab this time is another rock.
Originally, I heard that Xu Xudong should have come to see him off, but then Team Wu said that he wanted him to run in person, and Ling Lang didn't think much about why.
Huacheng is also known as Yangcheng, originating from the five immortals descending to earth, there is the legend of "five sheep rank valley, extracted in Chu Ting".
It is also known as the demon capital, but many people don't know the origin of this nickname. Some people say that it is because Huacheng people speak, and they always like to bring the word "baa" at the back. And every time I see something unreasonable, or when I'm in a bad mood, I like to shout "demon". Therefore, some people once hypothesized that the original five immortals may have been the human form of the five sheep demons, so they got the name of the demon capital.
And there are also examples to corroborate, for example, when Huacheng people praise beautiful people, or praise something very good, they will say: "ghost is beautiful" or "ghost fire is beautiful", "good ghost is beautiful". China is so big, there is no dialect in that region, and there are such peculiar prefixes to describe them. For example, when the Huacheng people are successful in bargaining, they will always say: "Kill you!" and so on, which is really weird, so it is said that the Huacheng people are "half-demon blood".
Of course, some people say that the demon is just mentioned in an animation, and more people just think it's pure nonsense. But in any case, Ling Lang still has a certain understanding of this place, not why, just because his mother, sister, and sister all work in this city, silently sweating for the city like tens of millions of outsiders.
Yunshan has been known as "the first show of the flower city" since ancient times. Although the main ridge is not high, as long as it is less than 400 meters, the mountain is wide, composed of more than 30 peaks, and spreads into a trend.
Yunshan and Huacheng are the same, there is also a strong cultural precipitation, according to legend, there are late Qin Gaoshi, secluded on the Yunshan to collect medicine to help the world, and finally in the Yunshan "become immortals and go".
Therefore, some people say that even in the flower city, there are many creepy places, especially some high-rise buildings converted from ancient buildings, which are even more evil. But no matter what rumors there are, as a land of mountains and wilderness, Yunshan has almost no such "negative" news coming out. Therefore, it is said that Yunshan is a fairy mountain, which has become recognized by most Huacheng people. And take pride in it.
As a thousand-year-old city, Ling Lang naturally knew that there were some evil and weird legends, and even those terrifying places that were circulated in the market must have their origins and indeed have their origins. However, at his level, a soul body person naturally looks at these at different angles and heights.
Yunshan is not a mountain, but a continuous mountain range, belonging to the "Nanganlong" in the three major mountain dragons in China, in a "Introduction to the Dragon Vein of China", Ling Lang has seen the saying that "Nine Dragons gather in one city", and the Yunshan Mountain Range is one of the rare "Imperial Dragon Veins".
And where there is the posture of an emperor, it must also be indispensable for the destruction and suppression of the "broken dragon" means of the kings of the past dynasties. And the most famous must be counted, the "first floor of the flower city" that has been destroyed and built five times - Zhenhai Tower.
In the back mountain of Yunshan, there is a small road that winds down, and the car cannot walk, so only one person can walk. Walking in it, Ling Lang was very strange in his heart, how can people live in such a deep mountain and old forest?
Later, I learned intermittently from the mouth of Team Wu that this was specially reserved by the dragon soul in order not to destroy the feng shui here. Because the dragon soul is stationed, it is called "Wanglongju".
After six hours of driving, I was nervous all the way, I didn't feel sleepy, my body was fine, but my mind was still very tired, and my chest was tight. When I got out of the car and came to such an "oxygen bar" like a place, I suddenly felt a sense of relaxation and joy, and even the feeling of tension was much less.
Walking through the forest, there were few people, and sometimes even the Wu team had to stop to identify the general direction and the hidden signs, so the two of them did not walk fast. On the way, he also met a person who came down the mountain, Ling Lang thought it would be a person with a dragon soul, but that person was just wearing very ordinary casual clothes, and there was no embroidered dragon pattern on his chest. Instead, the other party glanced at the two of them, and then neither of them spoke, and turned sideways to each other.
Finally, when they saw a mountain nest with dense branches and foliage and dense green cover, Team Wu said "It's here".
A hut in front of me is indeed appropriate to say that it is a "residence", and it is not impossible to say that it is a small ancestral hall. The green bricks and black tiles are simple and simple, and there is a lot of moss on the eaves and the corners of the steps.
The mountains and forests are quiet, the ancient houses are gloomy, and only the vermilion wooden door, which should have just been painted, adds a touch of vitality to it.
Passing through the vermilion wooden door, what catches people's eyes is the statue of Sanqingdao. There is a altar in front of the statue of Sanqing, there is a copper incense burner on the altar, there are three incense sticks in the incense burner, which has not been burned out, and there are a few wisps of green smoke, which are scattered in a curling manner.
There was a table in front of the altar, and there was nothing on the table except a plate of fresh fruit to be offered.
Bypassing the Sanqing statue, it is the back wall of the temple. The two of them stood still, Team Wu put his left hand on the wall, and just wanted to press it, when he suddenly turned around and said something to Ling Lang.
"Don't be afraid, dare to come, just go. ”
Six words, Ling Lang scratched his head.
With a "click", the wall moved, first inverted, and then with a "click", the "wall door" opened to the left, revealing a square opening.
When he was in the Dragon Group, there were many such doors, and Ling Lang was not surprised. Sure enough, after passing through the second path, my eyes finally lit up.
There is no such thing as a cave. The scene in front of him made Ling Lang suddenly have these four words in his heart.
It's completely different from the bunker-style building like the imaginary dragon group. It's more like a natural canyon. It is dozens of meters high, hundreds of meters long, large in the middle and small at both ends, in the shape of a boat. Looking up, the mountain cliffs and cliffs, the strange rocks are craggy, and there is even a mountain beam in the air, which crosses both sides, and then goes up, the "canyon" gradually shrinks, and then there are many pines and cypresses, covering the entire "valley mouth" above the sky, only in the gap between the leaves, faintly revealing and going down to the sun.
But in this "cave sky", there is no dim feeling, and it cannot be said that it is as white as day. The vision, all kinds of objects, are clearly visible everywhere, but they are not dazzling at all.
The mountain walls on both sides are divided into three layers. The ground floor looks like a modern building, with two rows of ordinary small bungalows. There are about two or three meters thick mountains on it, and there are many separate small tiled houses, which seem to be made of stone, without any stucco decoration, simple as a miniature version of an ordinary house, but do not give people a simple feeling. On top of it, there are many fewer small wooden houses, even the roofs seem to be covered with thatch or leaves, and from a distance, there are different styles and sizes, and some even seem to be hidden in the clouds.
When Ling Lang just wanted to take a closer look, Team Wu beside him spoke.
"Here they are. ”
Who are they?
Then Ling Lang saw a group of people wearing black sports suits with flying dragon patterns embroidered on their clothes.
