"It's a special place..." Her eyes lit up, "If there is one, it's the Split Dragon Cliff!"
Split Dragon Cliff?!
Lin Fan had just heard of this name!
When he was in the parking lot, he spent dozens of dollars more and asked the middle-aged woman selling tickets.
The answer I got was this place too!
However, Lin Fan still wanted to continue asking, but the woman stopped talking.
Judging from her expression, she seemed to be deeply fearful.
Lin Fan quickly asked: "What's so special about this Dragon Split Cliff?"
"Actually, it can't be said to be strange, but there has always been a very mysterious legend about it."
In ancient times, Fengyaogou was far more prosperous than it is now, and was an important town with a radius of hundreds of miles!
Surrounded by mountains and rivers, the land is fertile.
But suddenly, several rivers around Fengyaogou dried up overnight.
Without river irrigation, crops would not grow in farmland, and livestock would die from lack of water.
Most of the capable young adults left with their families.
The remaining old, weak, sick and disabled can only wait to die.
In the end, there were only a few thousand people left in Fengyaogou, which originally had tens of thousands of people.
At this time, a traveling expert passed by and told people that this was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster!
It was an earth dragon sleeping underground that woke up and drank up all the water in the river, so it became what it is now.
The master couldn't bear to see Feng Yaogou become extinct, so he cast a spell to deceive the earth dragon, and then shot it with a magic bow!
"Legend has it that the Split Dragon Cliff was shot out by an expert's bow!"
Seeing Cao Xinyi's serious expression, Lin Fan had a question mark in his mind.
This kind of legend can be found almost everywhere.
Most of them are based on lies, or are deliberately made up by some thoughtful people in order to attract tourists.
Seeing that Lin Fan didn't believe it, Cao Xinyi said firmly: "This is true. Someone has seen that earth dragon. It's so big and scary!"
Lin Fan smiled silently: "Wasn't Tulong shot to death by an expert? How could anyone see it?"
Cao Xinyi shook her head: "It is recorded in the county annals that Tulong was seriously injured by an expert shot and then disappeared without a trace."
"In order to prevent the earth dragon from coming again, the master left the divine bow in Fengyaogou before leaving. People called it the Split Dragon Bow!"
Lin Fan's eyes widened: "What you are talking about are all recorded in the county annals?"
"Yes," Cao Xinyi nodded, "I came to teach nearby before, so I know this."
Lin Fan frowned, showing a thoughtful expression.
Since it is recorded in the county annals, the authenticity is naturally a bit more than the legend.
And in general legends, whether they are monsters or treasures, they will eventually disappear.
But in this story, the earth dragon did not die, and the split dragon bow was left here.
Could it be...
That old witch who kidnapped Su Bing came here just for this?!
Lin Fan quickly said: "Xinyi, can you tell me where the Split Dragon Cliff is?"
"Brother Lin, are you thinking..." Cao Xinyi was a little surprised.
Lin Fan nodded and said in a deep voice: "I have to go, and this matter is life-threatening!"
Seeing Lin Fan say this, Cao Xinyi did not hesitate: "Okay, then I will go with you!"
"You stay with me? No need, just tell me how to go."
Cao Xinyi explained: "Split Dragon Cliff is not within the scenic area of Fengyaogou. It is still a deserted area without development."
"So that place is extremely difficult to find. Even you and I can't find it. We have to find a local to lead the way."
Lin Fan frowned: "So troublesome?"
Cao Xinyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother Li is a very nice person. When I was teaching, he was the one who took me to familiarize myself with the environment."
"OK!"
Cao Xinyi trotted over, spoke to her parents, and then returned immediately.
"I'm sorry," Lin Fan apologized, "I delayed you from spending time with your uncle and aunt."
But Cao Xinyi had a smile on her face and her eyes were particularly bright: "It doesn't matter, Brother Lin helped me before. I'm really happy that I can help you today!"
Cao Xinyi led Lin Fan into the mountains from a path not far from the gate of the scenic spot.
The winding mountain road felt like walking on flat ground to Lin Fan.
But for Cao Xinyi, it was a bit difficult.
Cao Xinyi, who was walking hard, suddenly saw a big hand stretched out in front of her.
"Give me your hand!"
Cao Xinyi hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and held Lin Fan.
Generous, rough, but powerful!
Cao Xinyi seemed to be able to feel her own heartbeat from Lin Fan's palm.
Flustered and joyful.
After walking for half an hour, the narrow mountain road finally became wider.
A few houses can also be seen faintly among the weeds.
Cao Xinyi wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead and pointed to the front not far away.
"That house is Brother Li's home!"
Arriving at the door of the house, Cao Xinyi called out several times: "Brother Li, is Brother Li here? I am Xinyi!"
Unfortunately, there was no answer from inside the room.
Cao Xinyi frowned: "Is Brother Li not at home?"
At this moment, a weak cough came from inside the room: "Ahem, Xinyi? Come in, I'm at home."
When I walked in, I saw that the furnishings in the house were very simple and could only guarantee the most basic life.
On the bed in the corner against the wall, a middle-aged man was lying.
He has a thin body, a sallow complexion and pale lips.
Lin Fan's face immediately showed a strange expression.
How could such a sick man lead them to Split Dragon Cliff?
Cao Xinyi's face also changed drastically: "Brother Li, we haven't seen you for just a few months, why are you so sick?"
Brother Li, who was lying on the bed, smiled bitterly: "Oh, it's all fate. If you come a few days later, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see me."
Cao Xinyi asked anxiously: "What is going on?"
"This is all because..."
Brother Li was about to say it when suddenly the door was opened again.
The person who walked in was the middle-aged woman who was selling tickets in the parking lot just now.
The woman's face changed: "You? What are you doing here?"
Brother Li waved his hand and said weakly: "Xiujuan, this is Teacher Cao who I mentioned to you before and came to our place to teach."
"It turns out that you are Brother Li's wife. It turns out that when Brother Li took me to familiarize myself with the mountain roads, he often praised you for being virtuous and capable!"
After all the flattery, the middle-aged woman's expression softened a lot in an instant.
She stopped talking to Lin Fan and Cao Xinyi and asked, "How do you feel? Have you taken the medicine?"
Brother Li smiled bitterly: "I'm like this, what's the point of taking medicine or not?"
"Brother Li, what happened?"
As soon as she mentioned this matter, the woman's eyes immediately turned red.
She wiped away her tears: "I said there was something weird about that Dragon Crane Cliff, but he didn't believe me and insisted on going. As a result..."
