Xiang Youyou suddenly felt deeply for Su Fang and sympathized with him: It seems that his father often compared him with Shu Ying and must have put a lot of pressure on him, which made his "young" mind become like this.

So fragile.

If I have children in the future, I won't be like this! She thought, and suddenly saw Bai Zhou's handsome face looking at her. Her cheeks turned red and she smiled shyly at him.

"What are you thinking about and why are you looking like this?" Bai Zhou asked in a low voice.

"Ah...it's nothing."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Su Fang's father bowing his hands to the two of them and apologizing: "The dog is not talented and made you laugh."

Seeing that the altar owner was still so polite and reasonable, Xiang Youyou was very moved. She and Bai Zhou hurriedly returned the bow and said, "We are here this time to ask for something else."

Before she could take out the Immortal Saint's seal and letter, the altar master rushed to say: "The Immortal Saint has explained this matter in the letter. I have been waiting here for you two for a long time, but I haven't seen you for a long time.

.I just heard someone report that Fang'er had arrested two foreigners. I guessed it was you, so I rushed over immediately. Who knew that this bastard was so shameless that he started playing tricks on you when you entered the city?

."

Sure enough, the altar master's words confirmed her guess. When Xiang Youyou heard what he said, she always felt that he had something to hide, but she thought that finding the string was the most important thing at the moment, so she didn't ask in detail.

After bowing, he said: "Since the altar master knows our origins, please take us to see the clan leader."

The altar master returned the greeting and said: "Don't worry, you two, the Immortal Saint has already explained it in the letter. I, the altar master, must obey, but..."

Seeing that he suddenly stopped talking, she hurriedly asked: "Is there any difficulty?"

The altar leader waved his hand, and those following him withdrew, leaving only the three of them here.

It seems that it is really inconvenient! She thought so in her mind and began to observe the altar owner's words.

The altar owner frowned and sighed again, giving people a feeling of helplessness and desolation. After a while, he said: "You two, please come with me!"

The two followed the altar owner closely and came to the river where there was a row of water trucks. Because it had just rained heavily, the river water was almost overflowing to the river bank at this time, and the water trucks were also driven around by the rushing river water.

.

They continued to swim up the river embankment. When they reached the end of the road, they saw several giant waterwheels in front of them, like Ferris wheels in a modern amusement park, which were slowly turning.

.Behind the large waterwheel is a group of three buildings. A round building is in the middle, and two square buildings are on both sides.

"Let me go, what is such a big waterwheel used for?" Xiang Youyou couldn't help but ask.

"This is where my clan keeps dragons," the altar owner replied.

Xiang Youyou felt very strange: "What? Use a large water tanker to raise a dragon?"

At this time, the three of them had already entered the water tanker. Xiang Youyou stood on the river embankment, looking at the bronze cage that was slowly coming down from the water tanker. There was indeed something locked inside.

The cages sank into the water one after another, and soon turned out from the other side. In this way, each cage could stay underwater for about a quarter of an hour.

"Why do you raise dragons in this way? Shouldn't they be kept free to make them grow better?" She was very puzzled.

"It was indeed raised in Jingze before, but it's a pity..." The altar owner sighed again, with a very solemn look on his face.

Xiang Youyou suddenly remembered what the waiter in the shop said about the dragon running away, and asked hurriedly: "Is it because of the flood?"

The altar owner nodded slightly and continued walking forward.

She glanced at Bai Zhou beside her and whispered: "It seems that the flood problem has not been eradicated yet!"

Bai Zhou took her up and continued to follow the altar owner. After crossing a metal bridge, the three of them stopped in front of the round building.

Xiang Youyou took a closer look at this building, which is called "Ding'an Building". Its appearance is very similar to the round building of modern Hakka earth buildings, but the color of this building is darker. As for the material, it still looks like bronze.

There are no windows at the bottom, but there are two small windows at the top. Many dragon-related patterns are carved on the outer walls of the entire building. The style is very similar to the "Sheng'en Building" in Chihe Fort.

"You two, follow me inside to see the clan leader!" the altar leader said.

When she passed the building gate, Xiang Youyou saw that the walls of this building were really thick, more than one foot wide, and were made of solid "copper walls and iron walls." She was immediately shocked again.

Entering the building, she found that in the circular open space enclosed by the building, there was a small round building of the same shape. It was also made of bronze, but this small building only had two floors. The door of the small building was facing the building.

In the direction of the door, there seems to be a lantern burning inside.

Xiang Youyou looked up at the internal structure of the building and found that this building did not seem to be for people to live in. The whole building was divided into five floors from bottom to top; each floor had a door, but it was tightly closed.

There are no stairs for going up or down between floors, and there are no corridors for people to walk between the same floors.

She suddenly thought: "Isn't this... this room also for dragons?"

"Indeed," the altar leader replied.

"Then those outside..." She pointed back at the door.

"Those are the newly caught young dragons. After picking the longan eyes, they will be sent here to be raised."

When Xiang Youyou heard the words "picking longan", Xiang Youyou's heart skipped a beat and her eyes hurt terribly. She couldn't help but rub her eyes and said, "Where is the patriarch? Can we see him?"

"This way, you two, please." The altar master said and brought the two of them into the "building within a building" in front of them.

The three of them walked around the screen and entered the inner hall. They saw an old man with gray hair, a thin face, a pale face, and wrinkles sitting in the middle of the hall.

This gray hair suddenly brought back some memories in her mind. She had seen this man before at a Dharma gathering in Jianmuluan. Because of this man's hair, they, Jianmu's descendants,

Afterward, they discussed "why it was this color." She remembered that at that time, the little kids came to the conclusion that they must have practiced some magic that was harmful to Wu Nei.

But the man she saw at that time was not that old! She suddenly felt a little puzzled. Thinking about it, it was only a hundred or two hundred years ago, so how could this man have become so old all of a sudden? Could it be that other than him, these nine people were so old?

There are other immortals all over the continent who also have gray hair like this.

The altar owner walked up to the man, bowed respectfully, and said: "Chief, we have brought him here."

They both followed suit and bowed.
