Chapter 184: Looking for the Roaring Heavenly Dog, the Road Meets the Pure Yang Immortal
From taking over the task to agreeing on the reward, neither Du Kang nor Yang Jian mentioned a single thing.
That's – how do you find the howling dog?
You know, the information currently known is only "The roaring dog is probably because he has been at the place of work for a long time and can't stay, so he secretly went to the mortal world to wander around", and the rest of the possible directions, the key clues that are common in puzzle games such as leaving messages are not one.
In a large-scale open-world free exploration game, such a task, if you can't take off-site assistance such as "Du Niang save me" and "Tie the big guy teach me", I'm afraid I'm going to be scolded by the player, maybe I have to wait until I almost forget about this task later, which corner to wander to, and then suddenly trigger the plot.
It was not mentioned, of course, not deliberately, but - not at all.
Du Kang is not a weak chicken player who is restricted by all kinds of restrictions, if this is really a large-scale open and free exploration game world, then his strength is not to say that it is the top part of the NPC, at least it is very high-end, the kind that can walk sideways everywhere.
If nothing else, let's take the perception ability to illustrate, in fact, the perception ability of most monks and even immortals is at most to cover a street and a city...... And what about Du Kang? The Land of One State is now a breeze! This is still a state in China, and in some European countries, it is bigger than the whole country.
If the other people's ability to explore is the Eagle Vision of the protagonist in Assassin's Creed, then Dukang's range is to cover the entire map, and he can also assassinate in the air...... Wind Spirit Moon Shadow is not so awesome.
And that's just one of the things Dukang can do.
It can be said that after just thinking about it a little, Du Kang has no less than ten ways to find the Roaring Sky Dog, including but not limited to "asking the land god of the mountain", "pinching his fingers", "searching for the source with things", "spiritual scanning", etc.!
In short, as long as this roaring dog is not hidden by some special master, as long as something really happens, then it is destined to be found by Du Kang.
"In that case, Erlang will go and be busy with your Three Realms patrol envoys, and I will go find your dog." Du Kang laughed.
Yang Jian was probably also being urged by that side, and he hugged his fists and saluted Du Kang, saying things like "rudeness" and "making amends in the future", so he hurriedly hurried away, but did not urge Du Kang to leave quickly, but asked people to leave Du Kang to rest at the mouth of the river and have some tea and rice.
However, Du Kang is obviously not a person who needs to rub this tea and dinner, and he is also a little curious about what this roaring dog is going to do, and he is worried that there will really be some irreparable disasters and it will not be easy to explain to Yang Jian when the time comes, so he politely declined the invitation to stay overnight for tea and dinner, flew into the sky, and left directly.
Flying in mid-air, Du Kang thought about it, and probably had some thoughts of showing off his skills and attempts, so he used a spell similar to divination and trace, and his eyes were shining with spiritual light.
You should know, who is Du Kang? It is an old acquaintance with Guan Gong and Erlang God, even if it is a normal flight speed, it is at least up to Mach 3, this is the guarantee, and the limit of further up is something that no one knows so far...... Although it is far less terrifying than the legendary Sun Dasheng's 108,000-mile fight, the speed is also extremely fast among the immortals and monks.
But it was said that the faint trail, from the mouth of the river, spread all the way, far to the sky, even if Du Kang was floating in the air, his vision was extremely broad, and he couldn't see the end at once, which showed that the speed of this roaring dog was also extremely fast...... Thinking about it, it was impossible to keep up with the battle between Erlang God and Sun Wukong back then, and to catch up with the chaos and take a bite on Sun Wukong's calf, this speed is definitely impossible.
So Du Kang accelerated his flight speed, hurriedly enjoyed the scenery all the way, estimated that he had flown at least six or seven hundred kilometers, and saw that the original trace route with a very light color became extremely thick and obvious in the field of vision, and then pressed the cloud head, fell to the ground, and then came a spiritual fusion leyline, which instantly brought a radius of 100 thousand miles directly under control, a gust of wind, a worm, are all under observation, but it still seems to be at ease.
Do you understand the superiority of opening the full-map perspective, completely ignoring the fog of war, and being able to attack from a wireless distance? Wherever this is placed, it's a dimensionality reduction blow!
In short, seeing that the main roaring dog appeared directly within the scope of the investigation, and he didn't notice it, Du Kang immediately relieved his heart.
Now, even if you put a pair of wings on that roaring dog and completely turn into a tengu, you can't escape, let alone make any trouble.
This reassurance, Du Kang's leisure suddenly came up, and then looked at the surrounding scenery, the clouds and mist were misty, the green mountains and green waters, and the waterfall was flowing straight down, and there was a good scenery, so he fell to the ground and walked slowly to that side.
This kind of leisure is not gratuitous - anyone who is used to seeing the crowded scene of the scenic spot and then sees this kind of casual 5A scenery that is not an exaggeration but there are basically no pedestrians, if there is nothing urgent, I am afraid they will stop and stroll, and then take a photo and send a circle of friends or something. At present, it is impossible for Du Kang to take pictures and post them to Moments, but it is also fun to play by himself......
No way, this kind of opportunity is too rare, unless there is a special person to clear the field, otherwise, in the future generations, if you go to those famous scenic spots, there is no need to say much about public holidays, but even if you specifically pick a day that is not on the festival before and after the holiday, it is also crowded and crowded...... God knows where so many people came from!
Take Du Kang as an example, he was still specially picking two days after the Dragon Boat Festival, thinking that everyone should go back to work and go back to Huashan with some authors to climb, but when I got there, good guys, I queued up for more than an hour!
Forget about the number of people, this level of scenic spot does not even have a water toilet is still using the dry toilet is very outrageous, it was originally a good scenery of the beautiful mountains and the wind whistling, but the wind turned a big wave of stench, and the toilet is all kinds of worries, cleanliness hell, could have hit eight or nine points of perception in an instant because of this dry toilet to five or six points.
Of course, Du Kang is not forcibly procrastinating and wants to let something irreparable happen and then come to a "it's all my fault" that leads to the opening of an accidental branch, this awkward and blunt way of pulling hatred to generate a new plot may be reasonable in the early days of the online article, but now it is a big poison point - Du Kang did this, in addition to the fact that he has been observing the situation on the side of the Roaring Sky Dog at all times, and can come down to the spiritual power incarnation to stop it, there is also one point that he found that he went on like this, I just happened to be able to meet a special combination.
As we all know, in various ways, the protagonist suddenly meets a servant who is in a hurry to find a master on the road to get rid of demons, which is a fairly classic way to lead out the plot, which is completely reasonable and will not be said by readers to be old-fashioned or unreasonable - such as "Journey to the West", "Strange Tales from Liaozhai" and so on.
In this situation, Du Kang is not the protagonist who is about to be bumped into, and the other party is not preparing to find a master to eliminate demons...... Instead, he has found a master and is rushing back.
What made Du Kang more concerned was the master who was found by the servant.
There are two masters found by the domestic servants, one of them is a short and fat monk with a fat head and big ears, to be reasonable, it is quite rare for a vegetarian to be able to eat so fat...... However, Du Kang's attention was not on him, but on another Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest looks very young, gold-shaped wooden, Taoist bones fairy wind crane top turtle back, tiger body, dragon cheeks, phoenix eyes facing the sky, eyebrows into the sideburns, neck trimming cheeks, broad forehead and round body, Huangliang towers straight face, white and yellow, left eyebrows, a black child, tattooed like a turtle under his feet, eight feet two inches long, like a Huayang scarf......
In fact, Du Kang is not very sensitive to this appearance, but the shape and meaning of this Taoist priest makes Du Kang very familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he has the answer - this is the shape and meaning on the sword sealed in the eastern peak of Huashan!
There is a Tao that is close to Zhu and black, not only between people, but also between people and things, especially between monks and spiritual weapons, it is very easy to influence each other...... Therefore, it is easy to be contaminated with the exact same shape and meaning as time goes by.
Du Kang still remembers the momentum of that sword, pure yang is like fire, upright, after all, it is the "key point of memory" of his substitute class this time. Although the momentum of this young Taoist priest is far less powerful than that of the sword, and it seems to be very weak, it is essentially the same thing.
Of course, this will not be the sword that affected the young Taoist priest in front of him, it will only be the sword that the young Taoist priest made later, after all, Du Kang came into contact with that sword I don't know how many years later, and it is reasonable for this young Taoist priest to grow up during this period.
If it was just that, it would be easy to say, but soon Du Kang heard the servant's address to this Taoist priest - Daoist Lu again!
The shape is pure and yang like fire, upright, surnamed Lu, so strong that when a sword is revived in the future, it has the power of heaven and earth vision, and it is also qualified to seal it in Huashan...... At this moment, if Du Kang didn't have a conjecture in his heart, it would be a strange thing.
One of the well-known stories "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Each Showing Their Magical Powers", Chunyangzi, Lu Zu, and Sword Immortal Lu Dongbin!
Du Kang is still quite familiar with this information, because he also met Wang Chongyang in Yue Fei's era before, because Wang Chongyang also wanted to kill Qin Hui at that time and met, and then there were some other friendships that became friends...... After coming back, I learned about the relevant information, and then naturally saw Lu Dongbin in the character relationship diagram.
Only then did he know that Lu Dongbin had preached to Wang Chongyang, and was revered as one of the "Five Ancestors of the North" by Taoism Quanzhen Dao, one of the "Eight Immortals" in folklore, and one of the "Five Wenchangs", often worshipping with Guan Gong, Zhu Yi Fuzi, Kui Xing and Emperor Wenchang...... In short, the status can be said to be extremely high.
The other is the identity of the Sword Immortal...... The gods said that the sword will never be left behind, and this is basically a synonymous existence.
Then Du Kang remembered that there was a Quanzhen Cave on Mount Hua...... It makes sense, it's all over again! One of the "Five Ancestors of the North" of the Quanzhen Dao left a sword in Huashan where there is a Quanzhen Cave, what happened? It's a reasonable thing to do!
As for why he was because of the memories evoked by Lu Dongbin's sword, he got a substitute for a dog walker for the first time, as well as Erlang God and Roaring Sky Dog...... Du Kang also figured it out.
It's very simple, there is such a sentence that everyone has heard - "The dog bites Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people", according to legend, this sentence has several origins, for example, Lu Dongbin had a fellow villager friend called "Gou Qi", and then there was such and such a story between the two, in short, a happy ending was reached, and later because of the homonym of "Gou Qi" and "dog bite", and then there was such a sentence.
The other is the mythical and legendary version - it is recorded in "The Legend of the Eight Immortals" that the Roaring Sky Dog went down to the earth to cause trouble without permission, and Lu Dongbin went to catch it, and then thought that if the Roaring Sky Dog was killed, it would be difficult to explain to Erlang God, so he thought about releasing it, but as soon as the Roaring Sky Dog came out, without waiting for Lu Dongbin to explain, he bit Lu Dongbin three ways...... Fortunately, Lu Dongbin reacted quickly, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
At the moment, it seems that what Du Kang has experienced is this version of the myth.
Thinking about this, Du Kang's footsteps were unhurried, and just when the servant and a monk were about to turn the corner, they landed on their path.
As soon as Lu Dongbin and Monk Zhiyuan turned the corner with the servants, they saw a person standing on the road, how is the fairy posture, no longer spending pen and ink to narrate, anyway, it is on par with the reader, and before he can speak, he saw the man raise his hand towards this side, "The person who came is Lu Yan Lu Daochang?" ”
When Lu Dongbin heard this, he wondered in his heart, could it be that he had met another master who could predict the future?
It turned out that he happened to meet the servant who was going to the Baoguo Zen Temple to invite the monks to subdue the demons on the road a few hours ago, and then went to the Baoguo Zen Temple with him, and saw a monk who had attained the Tao and was already 245 years old.
As for why the enlightened monk with white eyebrows and long beard has such a short and fat monk's apprentice...... I don't know why.
In short, thinking of this, Lu Dongbin didn't dare to slack off, and said to Du Kang, who called out his real name: "It's Lu Yan, a disciple of the Taoist Sect, I don't know what to call a layman?" What is the matter with me? ”
"I'm not here to find you, and this encounter can only be said to be a coincidence." Du Kang smiled, "My surname is Du Mingkang, Mu Tu Du, Guang Likang, just call me Du Gongzi." ”
As soon as these words came out, so many immortals before could not avoid exclaiming, how could these two people be left behind?
I saw that Lu Dongbin and the Zhiyuan monk were startled, and exclaimed: "Du Kang, the god of wine? ”
Ulla!
