Chapter 186: The Secret of the Raft Not Moving
The most important thing is that the "scales" of the dragon were also found.
It's really worth the trip, and it's rewarding!
My eldest brother and I did not linger too much in this "water hole", but after going out of it, we quickly swam back to the original section of the river, and returned to the surface of the river smoothly and safely.
After my eldest brother and I climbed onto the raft, I also ripped off the hood of the water coat on my head.
Lie down on the raft and take a big gulp, and begin to breathe in the fresh air outside.
Although there was some watery smell in the air, it still made me feel extremely happy.
Of course, I quickly sat up, and then began to look more closely, at the half of the black thing I had brought out of my hand.
"If it's not a surprise, this thing is the scales that fell off the dragon's body!"
At this time, the eldest brother also sat up and said with a smile.
"Then we didn't come in vain, we did three things tonight!"
I was also excited to respond.
"Not bad! first found the water poured hole, and then confirmed that this place is the dragon's nest where the dragon lives, and the identity of the big man in the shawl and hairjacket you met when you took the car during the day is now about to come out. ”
The eldest brother also said in a tone mixed with some excitement.
I said directly: "He's a Jiaoren!" ”
Because, as my eldest brother said earlier, the smell on my body is similar to Jiaolong urine.
And the source of this smell came from the big man in the shawl and hairjacket, and after he got off the bus with me in Beicun, he walked in the opposite direction, which was obviously from the riverside where this section of the river was.
If all these clues are linked, it can prove his identity, and there is no doubt that he is a "Jiaoren"!
Of course, when my eldest brother and I came before, we were still a little worried, afraid that we would bump into the dragon, or meet the Jiaoren.
When the time comes, there will inevitably be trouble, and maybe there will be a big fight.
This is also the reason why I will directly prepare to bring the Longquan Sword, and the eldest brother will come over with the corpse rod.
I never thought that after we arrived, not only did we not meet the dragon, but even the Jiao man did not meet either.
"It is estimated that the purpose of the Jiaoren coming here today is to take away the Jiaolong in this water cave!"
The eldest brother said at this time.
After hearing this, I also thought it was true, otherwise there was really no way to explain why there were only Jiaolong scales left in this water inverted hole, and it was impossible for the Jiao people to run in vain when they came here.
Although, this makes me a little disappointed and regretful, I didn't see the dragon and the Jiaoren.
But again, I'm glad I didn't meet them.
When I rowed the raft with the pole and returned to the riverbank, my eldest brother came down first.
Then my eldest brother and I got the raft out of the water and carried it back to the car.
However, my eldest brother and I did not rush home, but stayed in the car first.
My eldest brother lit a cigarette and smoked there, while I sat in the passenger seat, opened the door, and wrung out the water from the outside of my water jacket.
"Big brother, I forgot to ask you before, how did this raft be washed away by the current this time?"
At the same time, I was also curious to ask about it.
"Xu Duye told me, I didn't know before, it turns out that this raft of our old Huang family has another mystery."
The eldest brother sold a pass and said.
When he said this, it made me even more urgent, and I wanted to know why, so I hurriedly said, "Big brother, tell me about it." ”
"I heard Xu Duye tell me that the material used for this raft of our old Huang family is not simple, it is made of 'Shuiyin wood'. Even if this thing is poured into the sky by the water of the Yellow River, it will not be able to wash away our raft at all! ”
Big brother, he said.
But after I listened, I only knew that the raft was made of the "water yin wood", but I still didn't know why today's raft was not washed away by the water.
"Big brother, can you not hang me like this."
I said a little anxiously.
"What's the hurry, it's not like I haven't finished speaking, you wait for me to finish this cigarette."
When the eldest brother said this, he also took the little cigarette left in his hand, and also took a puff, and then the cigarette butt was bounced out by him.
Then, the eldest brother talked about the main reason why today's raft was not washed away by the water.
According to Xu Duye, this gloomy wood was originally washed out of some ancient coffins by the Yellow River from some ancient tombs, and after being nourished by yin qi and soaked in river water, it was something that would be formed after being soaked with water vein aura.
The value of this thing is naturally extraordinary, and of course the quantity is naturally very rare.
Therefore, even if I am the old Huang family, I only found a few of them, and in the end I could only build such a raft.
However, this raft made of gloomy wood is not to mention how solid it is, and it does not rot in the water, and it is not scorched in the fire.
Of course, its weight is naturally very amazing, like if I am alone, I can't lift it at all, it takes me and my eldest brother to be able to lift it, but I can't go too far.
At this point, of course, there is no way to compare with our father, after all, if he is alone, he can carry this raft made of gloomy wood, and then walk like a fly.
Besides, this gloomy wood, once it is stained with water, it actually takes root, in the words of Old Man Xu, it grows in the water.
However, this needs to be used with a secret spell, and it used to be because the eldest brother didn't understand this secret spell, and he didn't know how to keep the raft in the water and not be washed away by the river.
But since the last time, when Old Man Xu told him that the secret spell was engraved at the bottom of the raft, the eldest brother had mastered the secret spell.
There are four verses in this mantra, but if you don't know this strange script, which is like an oracle bone inscription, it's useless.
Because this mantra is almost integrated with the bottom of the raft, the pattern is one, and if people who don't know the mystery of it see it, they will only regard it as a part of the wood grain.
But the eldest brother was once forced by our father to learn the text of this secret spell for a period of time.
Although at that time, in order to learn this kind of strange words, the eldest brother did not suffer less, but now it is in use.
It is precisely because of the secret spell used by the eldest brother that after the raft enters the water tonight, it is like taking root and growing on the surface of the water, and it will not be washed away by the current.
