Chapter 111: There are dragons in the world, and there are Jiao in the water

Ferry.

The white mist spreads and covers the river.

A galleon several feet in size broke through the white fog and gradually approached the ferry.

And when the sailboat approached the ferry.

Dozens of people around the ferry, after seeing the tall young man standing at the bow of the boat, were all excited and stepped forward to say hello.

"Erlang Childe."

"You're on the ferry again."

Jiang Taiyi also saw this young man who was built by the people of Shu.

At this glance, my heart moved slightly.

"Spiritual roots?!"

This young man who was worshiped by the local people in the temple was actually a person with a spiritual root, and for so many years, he had seen very few people with spiritual roots between this heaven and earth.

Chen Sheng's calculation is one.

But it's just an ordinary spiritual root.

And the young man in front of him who jumped off the sailboat had a much better spiritual root than Chen Sheng.

It was at this time.

He also heard the conversation between the two medical women.

Nian Duan and Duanmu Rong also looked at the Erlang who stepped off the boat.

Duanmu Rong's young age was also surprised by the scene of young people being so respected, so she asked the master in a low voice: "Master, who is this Erlang?" is so loved by the local people. ”

When Jiang Taiyi heard this, he also listened on the side.

Nian Duan was not far away, looked at Na Erlang, and said slowly: "The disciple of the medical family takes it as his responsibility to save the people of Cangsheng Li, and he has a lot of merit for this heaven and earth, but compared to Li Bing, the county guard of this Fang Shu land, it is nothing. ”

"Li Bing, it seems that he is the county guard of the Qin State in Shu County." Duanmu Rong said: "What he has done is actually greater than the merit of our doctor. ”

"It's this irrigation river."

Nian Duan looked at the misty river in front of him and said:

"This river originates from the Dujiang River, flows through Shu, was originally a bad river, whenever it floods, it is to destroy the fields and break the embankment, hurt the peasants and harm the people, hundreds of years endlessly, until a few decades ago, King Qin Zhao sent Li Bing to guard the county of Shu, build water conservancy in this Shu land, pile the soil and cast it into a weir, divide the Dujiang River into two sections at the mouth of the irrigation mouth, and build a 'Dujiangyan'."

"After this, the water potential is divided into two sections, Dujiang is no longer an evil river, but has become an 'irrigation river' that can irrigate farmland, Li Bing's 'Dujiangyan', can benefit the people of Shu for thousands of years, save hundreds of millions of people in Shu, you say this merit, how can it not be big."

When Mrs. Jiang heard it in her ears, she also nodded in her heart.

With this point, this Li Bing can indeed be called a legend for the ages.

After hearing this, Duanmu Rong also thought so, but looked at Li Erlang and said, "But that is all Li Bing's actions, what is this Erlang doing?" Can he let the local people build a shrine for him? ”

Ancestral halls, temples for the living.

This......

It sounds like he owes more credit than his father.

Nian Duan also pondered: "I only know that Li Bing has great prestige in the hearts of the people in Shuzhong, and after his death a few years ago, the people set up the 'Li Wang Temple' for it, as for his son, perhaps, this old man knows?" ”

She looked at the old man they had been treating, and spoke softly.

"Can you tell me?"

The old man introduced the two and said: "The two benefactors are not from Shuzhong, they only know that Li Junshou built Dujiangyan, but they don't know that Dujiangyan can be built, not because of Li Junshou alone, but also thanks to Erlang Gongzi." ”

Nian Duan asked, "What do you say?" ”

The old man said: "The two of you don't know, this Erlang of Lord Li has been born with natural divine power since he was a child, and he has been taught by a famous teacher since he was a child, and he has practiced an otherworldly martial arts. ”

"When Lord Li supervised the construction of Dujiangyan, it was to discharge the flood of the Dujiang River, divided into two sections, which ran out of a lot of water spirits in the river, making waves along the river, making the construction of Dujiangyan difficult, at this time, it was Erlang Gongzi who repeatedly entered the water and fought with water monsters such as turtles, ichthyosaurs, and lizards, and killed these water spirits one by one, which led to today's Dujiangyan."

Nian Duan and Duanmu Rong nodded slightly and said, "I see." ”

The old man was interested, and said: "And those Meishan County shouted that they wanted to set up a shrine for Erlang Gongzi, also because a year ago, there were apes, pigs, sheep, dogs, cows, snakes, centipedes and seven kinds of spirits in Meishan, all of which are no longer ordinary evil animals, and have some spirituality, especially the white-faced ape, it is said that there are two people who are tall and smart, and often go down the mountain with six other spirits to harm the people of Meishan County, killing more than a dozen people, and finally alarming Erlang Gongzi, just one person, leading his slender waist dog, entered Meishan, and a day later, came out carrying the corpses of seven spirits. ”

"After this, the people of Meishan no longer have to be afraid, the people feel that Erlang is a god descending to earth to protect the local people, so they built a shrine for him, and gave the temple name 'Qingyuan Erlang', please bless our local people."

"Qingyuan." Nian Duan said softly, "What do you mean by cleaning up the source of the flood?" It's apt. ”

Jiang Taiyi also listened to the past deeds of the handsome and yellow-clothed young man.

Look at it again.

It just met the gaze of Najiro looking at this side.

"The gentleman in blue, and the two ladies and misses, are you going to take the ferry to Guan Kou?"

Jiro's voice was gentle, and he waved his hand and said:

"There is fog today, it is the time when the dragon under the Dujiang River will come up, other boats will not come to ferry again, my boat is the only boat today, if you miss it, you can only wait for tomorrow."

"Jiaolong?"

When Jiang Taiyi heard this, she was a little curious and looked at this Erlang:

"You said there was a dragon in the water?"

Jiaolong, this kind of demon beast is very rare even in the immortal cultivation realm.

The girl named Duanmu Rong was also slightly surprised: "Jiaolong, is there really such a divine thing in the world?" ”

"What kind of artifact?"

Jiro shook his head and said:

"It's a wicked animal that has a climate underwater, and it hurts people a lot, if I hadn't fought him several times in the water, I would have killed this evil beast a long time ago."

Nian Duan was slightly shocked when he heard this.

Can you go into the water to fight dragons?

This Erlang, is his strength so powerful?

"The ancients said: 500 years for Jiao, 1,000 years for the dragon, 500 years for the dragon for the horned dragon, 1,000 years for the dragon."

Nian Duan says:

"It is rumored that the Yellow Emperor in that year, is to fly to the heavenly realm by the dragon, since then, there is no dragon in the world, the existence of the dragon level such as the horned dragon, only the dragon remains, in the time of Emperor Shun, there is a tribe dedicated to Emperor Shun to raise dragons, called the dragon clan, but since the Shang and Zhou wars, dragons are rarely seen, but two hundred years ago, the Confucian sage Kong Qiu hunted in the west of Lu Ai Gong, and killed the unicorn in Dayozawa, and a generation of saints died in the spring and autumn."

"As a dragon species, the unicorn has the same status as the dragon, and it is the closest thing people have seen to the dragon in the past hundred years."

"Since then, there have been no dragons in the world, only some dragons, hidden in the abyssal rivers and lakes."

Nian Duan paused when he said this.

looked at Erlang again and said:

"Although the Jiaolong is far inferior to the existence of the dragon and the unicorn, it is also something that has lived for at least five hundred years, even if it is the smallest Jiaolong, the human martial arts have been cultivated to the realm of the great grandmaster, and the battlefield is placed on land, it can only hurt its scale armor, and cannot take its life, if the battlefield is in the water, the Jiaolong can even make waves, even if it is a great grandmaster among the human race, it is not an opponent at all."

"Li Gongzi looks like he is only in his twenties, and it is really shocking that he can go down to the water and fight with Jiaolong for a few rounds."

The last word shock is not fake.

I am sincerely admired.

Because Nian Duan himself is a great grandmaster, he doesn't dare to say that he is going to fight with Jiaolong.

"It turns out that Jiaolong still has so many sayings, I never know, I only know that the black Jiao is a harmful beast, ruling the entire Dujiang, and many water monsters and water beasts in the water are all manipulated by it to go ashore as a disaster."

Li Erlang first admired this period of history that Nian Duan said, and then mentioned himself:

"But I'm not as powerful as Madam said, my martial arts are only at the level of a grandmaster, and the reason why I was able to go down to the water and fight those water spirits for a few rounds is only because I have been stronger than people since I was a child, and I have more strength in the water, so I can fight with that dragon for a few rounds."

Jiang Taiyi saw it clearly.

One of the reasons why a young man is born with divine power is because he has a spiritual root, which is the main reason, and the other reason is because this young man's mind has the potential of a bloodline, which will be stimulated under special circumstances.

This reminded him of some legends about the ancestors of Shu that he had heard before coming to Shu.

Shu Hou silkworm bush, its eyes longitudinal.

It is said that the founding emperor of the ancient Shu Kingdom, Silkworm Cong, was born with a longitudinal eyebrow, and his people are also called the Zongmu clan.

Especially during the period of King Wu's war, Shu State, as one of the eight hundred princes of the Shang Dynasty, also participated in the Shang and Zhou Wars.

Now.

Think of these.

Looking at this Erlang again, he vaguely guessed.

Most of this Erlang has the blood of the ancient Shu Zongmu clan in his body.

"Okay, the fog on the river is getting thicker and thicker, the bigger the fog, the greater the chance of the evil beast being infested, if you want to get on the boat, hurry up and follow me, I can't wait for you any later." Jiro Masasei said.

"Up." Jiang Taiyi smiled at the young man and said, "This is it." ”

"Rong'er, let's get on the boat too." Nian Duan also said: "When we get to Guankou, go to the Shuzhong area, and we should be able to find the kind of herb we are looking for." ”

Duanmu Rong nodded obediently and followed behind the master.

Several people got on the boat one after another.

"The boat is sailing." Li Erlang said loudly on the bow of the boat: "In two hours, we will arrive at the mouth of the river." ”

The boat had untied its rope and began to move towards Watanabe.

But at this time.

Suddenly, there was a sound in the distance.

"Wait, we're going to get on board too."

But I saw that seven or eight people were running on the shore at this time, led by a young man holding a baby girl, followed by an old woman, shouting: "Slow boat, wait for us." ”

Jiro was about to say that the ship had already sailed and there was no way to stop it.

But he saw that those people just greeted him, and actually stepped directly on the water from the ferry, stepping on the water, Ling Bo crossed the river for dozens of feet, and then landed on the bow of the boat.

"Master! Evil! ”

Nian Duan immediately subconsciously protected Rong'er behind him.

Jiang Taiyi looked at the young man holding the baby and sensed the breath of this group of people:

"Magical powers?"
