The old Taoist priest lit a incense stick, lit the incense box with the incense head, and the incense box ignited a wisp of smoke, he closed the incense burner with his hand, and sent the stove into the building again, and the door was restored to its original state.

The smoke was like a cloud, and the cavities between the breaths had filled the cavities between the towers, and countless thick white mist floated out from the gaps in the Golden Palace and Jade Gates, staining the pool platform like a fairyland.

These spices are very useful, even if Yue Guanchao is behind the railing, they also begin to smell this strange aroma, he saw this scene, and finally knew what the function of these towers was, probably, this is a huge incense offering platform.

"Tut-tut, fish fairy, fish fairy."

In the process, the smoke from the balcony became thicker and thicker, like a white waterfall, pouring down from the gap between the towers and falling into the pool, and the smoke soon completely covered the water surface.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, the old Taoist priest shook the bell and finally worked, the sound of paddling in the canal became clearer and clearer, it was obvious that there was something, slowly swimming from the canal to the prayer pool, they looked at the pool, and they had seen something in the smoke.

After the water splashed, the smoke rose upward, and a lantern-sized pointed head rose from the water, and looked at the black and white eyes with sharp cheeks, which were clearly the big white fish painted in the caisson.

At this moment, the three of them hid in the shadows, and their hearts churned.

They also thought that Daoist Cui's secret technique was just this rain prayer pool, and seeing this huge white fish leaning out of the pool, their originally relaxed spirit became puzzled again.

Could it be that this white fish is really a fish god?

Or is it that the fish god manifested on the white fish and was specially summoned by Daoist Cui?

Yue Guanchao looked cautiously at the pool, the white fish seemed to be very familiar with these behaviors, circling and swimming in the steaming pool like a swimming dragon, swinging its tail and making a splash, constantly absorbing the mist.

"Yu Daxian'er, you have also eaten a lot of incense with me over the years, from now on, we can go back to Wushan, when the time comes, you don't have to work so hard anymore, if you are really a fish god, also bless us with a smooth trip."

After saying that, Daoist Cui opened the cloth bag on his back and threw out a lot of dried fish from it, and the big white fish raised its pointed head and swallowed all the dried fish one by one.

When the dried fish in the bag were fed, he put out the incense burner, and waited for the big white fish to disappear into the pool, and then climbed up slowly.

Yue Guanchao waited under the railing for a cup of tea, and only after making sure that Daoist Cui was gone, did they cautiously jump off the railing.

Song Siyuan opened the platform where Daoist Cui was groping, and there was still smoke in the incense burner inside, so he got closer and smelled it, it was obviously the incense stick they smelled during the day, but in this incense line, there was also an inexplicable smell of food, I don't know what it was.

"We can bring back these leftovers and maybe we can figure out something." Song Siyuan took out the bag, put the ashes of the spice into the pocket, and restored the stove to its original state.

Yue Guanchao picked up the flashlight and looked at the caisson: "The big white fish is indeed not as long as the one on the caisson, but the details of the head and tail fins are still very restored, which shows that the mural of the caisson only deified the big white fish and increased the body of the dragon to him, but what is this thing?" can grow so big, it seems that he can understand human speech. ”

"This is a sturgeon!"

After Song Siyuan collected the incense ash, she guessed cautiously.

"Sturgeon?"

Yue Guanchao and Xu Xia are full of curiosity!

"Yes!"

Song Siyuan was convinced of this: "I just saw the caisson just now, and the fish shape on it has been deified, and it is not real to see, until I see the real appearance of this big white fish, I can see what kind of fish this is." ”

"The sturgeon, the body length can grow to five or six meters, the pointed head, swallowtail, horned fan fin, lower jaw has whiskers, the head is slightly sharp, the body is wide and streamlined, like an olive and a shuttle, the fish body is mostly black, the belly is white and the fish scales are black, from the top of the head to the tail, there are convex outer bones in the back and abdomen, and it looks as if it has three vertebrae."

She pointed to the caisson above and continued: "The features on this are basically the same as the characteristics of the river sturgeon, but the body of the fish has been replaced by the body of the python, just now, when it swims, I can see the three vertebrae on the white fish, such characteristics are only found by the river sturgeon, probably, the big white fish is a river sturgeon." ”

Yue Guanchao saw that Song Siyuan's description was indeed in line with the caisson, and asked again: "This Daoist Cui has been in Jianghan for ten years, which means that such a big river sturgeon has lived for at least ten years, is there really such a fish that can live?" Most fish live for five or six years at most. ”

"Why not." Song Siyuan went on to explain: "The lifespan of fish ranges from two to twenty years, not to mention the lifespan of other fish, do you know what the lifespan of a sturgeon is? ”

"Forty years!"

Song Siyuan also felt that this was very strange, and sighed: "This is only the lower limit of its age, if you talk about the upper limit, it is possible to exceed a hundred years, this ten years is likely to be only ten years for the sturgeon in Jianghan, maybe before that, it has been over 100 years old." ”

Xu Xiake listened to their words, and nodded thoughtfully: "Things are old and refined, if the big white fish really lives past a hundred years old, it is really possible to understand the spiritual wisdom, then it can understand people's words, and if this is the case, the key secret that Cui Daoshi can give people a view of the yin may be the big white fish." ”

The little Taoist priest paused, and continued to ask: "The question is, why is the big white fish attracted by the fragrance, and why does it create an illusion, and even, the big white fish may come out of Wushan, is it possible, is it really a fish god?" ”

"Not necessarily." Song Siyuan's mind was also very confused, thinking about the current situation and explaining: "Just now Daoist Cui was not sure whether the big white fish was a fish god, and he had been calling it a fish fairy, it can be seen that the white fish is not a fish god, but one thing is certain, the old Taoist priest can observe the falling yin, and it is indeed true that the big white fish is not fake, which he also admitted." ”

She thought about the origin of the big white fish, and her eyes lit up: "Could it be that this big white fish also came out of Shennongjia?" ”

On this point, she does think it is possible, although the upper limit of the life span of the sturgeon is very high, but not mostly white, most of the sturgeon are black-backed and white-bellied or gray-backed and white-bellied, like this, the snow-white scales of the whole body are still slightly shining, which can already be regarded as a genetic mutation, that is, an outlier in the fish school.

This is very similar to the albino animals in Shennongjia, all of which are changing in a special direction!

"You don't think that because it's white, you think that the big white fish is also from Shennongjia, right?"

Yue Guanchao also felt that it was too arbitrary to only use the color as the source.

"We'll have to talk about it, let's go back first."
