Chapter 605: Dragon fetus! Dragon ball! There is weak water north of Kunlun, and the god Yuqi lives in the weak water.
Not long after the group passed through the Golden City safely, they heard the sound of gurgling water.
There is indeed living water flowing through the ground!
This was Jin An's first reaction.
He led everyone to hurry towards the flowing water. When they found the underground river, everyone was stunned. The water of the river was filled with many gold objects, and the golden light shone in the sparkling waves.
As we continued walking along the river, the number of gold objects in the river not only did not decrease, but instead piled higher and higher.
"Sprinkling gold in the river seems like some kind of sacrificial ceremony." Mr. Yiyun, who has traveled all over the world and is well-informed, said thoughtfully as he looked at the glittering gold vessels at the bottom of the river.
Jin An nodded in agreement. He had heard of similar sacrificial methods before.
This is a bit like a wishing fountain. You throw coins or valuable gold and gemstones into the river to pray for blessings and wishes, praying to the gods to bless the family's health and safety, and to ward off evil and evil.
They continued to walk along the river formed by the melted snow in the snow-capped mountains, not knowing where the river would eventually flow. Suddenly, Jin'an heard the sound of a large army coming from the front. The sound of people was buzzing, and it was very lively.
When he saw the large army, he saw a huge underground lake appearing in front of him. The terrain here was gentle and the water surface was as calm as a mirror.
The lake is so wide that the torch in my hand cannot shine on the other side.
At this time, on the water bank, a large number of troops were looking at the scene in the river in amazement. When Jin An and the others followed the crowd's gaze and looked into the river bank, they also had expressions of astonishment on their faces.
I saw that the underground lake was filled with a thick layer of gold utensils, gold scepters, gold headbands, gold bricks, gold beans, gold coins... there were so many that it was dazzling. This was a larger wishing pool, a place for sacrifice.
However, based on previous experiences, the gold objects all over the lake are not what really impresses people. What really impresses people is the giant golden dragon in the middle of the golden lake.
It was an astonishingly large golden dragon.
The body rises and falls like a mountain.
Standing motionless in the water.
The golden body reflects the golden light all over the cave.
The golden dragon head is facing the direction they came from. The dragon is a god, not angry but powerful. The dragon walks on the crimson air. Although this is a dead thing that sleeps underground and does not move, it has a feeling that it can rise from the hidden dragon to the sky at any time and turn into a flying dragon.
A sense of momentum that shakes the mountains and rivers.
And in the mouth of the golden dragon, there is a dragon ball.
There is a faint shadow coiling in the dragon ball, which seems to be a spiritual thing that has given birth to a dragon fetus.
At this time, the cave was filled with the fragrant essence of heaven and earth. After a closer look, I realized that it was very similar to the aura of the dragon spirit I had just seen half a month ago. It came from the aura of dragon essence, dragon energy, and dragon blood, but it was much stronger.
Not even ten times more.
And this pure aura comes from the dragon ball that seems to have given birth to a dragon fetus!
"The mountains are not high, but immortals are famous. The water is not deep, but dragons are spiritual!" At this time, someone looked at the golden dragon in the lake and the dragon ball in the dragon's mouth, and exclaimed with emotion.
Others looked at the golden dragon in the lake and were also amazed: "As expected, it is the Kunlun Mountain, the ancestor of all dragons and the origin of dragon veins. We met the dragon fetus not long after we entered the mountain! If we get that
Can Dragon Ball really give birth to a real dragon?"
As soon as these words came out, they immediately touched the hearts of countless people, and their hearts were aroused with burning desire. When they looked at the golden dragon in the lake, they were obviously different.
If they were looking at a dead object carved from gold before and admired the uncanny craftsmanship of their ancient ancestors, then when they look at the golden dragon now, they are no longer looking at a simple dead object, but one that can give birth to something.
A living creature in the womb of a dragon.
Listening to the discussions of people around me, the Tibetan people from the four major tribes on the plateau, the people from the Western Regions, the Tianzhu people, the Nanman people in the primitive jungle... Although I don't understand what "the mountains are not high, they are famous if they have immortals. The water is not deep, there are immortals"
"The dragon is the spirit", but they all unanimously saw that the dragon ball in the cage's mouth was of extraordinary significance, and they were bound to get this dragon ball.
Several forces began to send their men to the lake to test.
Among them, the Tibetan people, with their large numbers, rushed to the front, breaking the thousand-year peace here and sending water splashing everywhere.
At this time, the majority of the troops' attention was focused on the dragon ball that seemed to have a dragon fetus swimming around, and they did not notice the Jin'an people who followed.
Jin An naturally noticed the abnormality of the dragon ball. He also came to the lake to take a close look at the golden dragon that stood like a series of mountain peaks in the huge lake. At this moment, he discovered a detail, the dragon that rushed into the lake.
Among the several forces, there is actually no one from the Tianshi Mansion.
People in Tianshi Mansion are very interested in interests.
He is definitely not the one who suffers the consequences.
At this time, the Tianshi Mansion, faced with the rare dragon fetus in front of them, was not in a hurry to go to the lake to snatch it. Instead, a group of people gathered around a young man with a jade-like face and a jade belt around his waist and a group of people.
The old man has a big frame, white beard and hair, and a face that is expressionless but has a deep sense of talent that can absorb hundreds of rivers. The old man is standing next to him with a serious look on his face, as if he is discussing something.
Looking at the people of the Tianshi Mansion who were acting cautiously, Jin An looked thoughtfully at the golden dragon in the giant lake and looked at it carefully.
This time, because he was mentally prepared, after looking back and forth carefully, he really saw some clues.
"Do you think this dragon looks a little strange..."
"Although based on the appearance alone, I thought it was a real dragon at first, but I always felt that the proportions of the body were a bit awkward. I couldn't tell where the awkwardness was. I just felt that it felt a bit different..."
Even Mr. Yiyun nodded and agreed with Jin An's point of view.
But I won’t be able to find out the specific difference for a while.
In the end, it was the old Taoist priest who relied on the old Taoist priest's eyesight to see where the doorway of this dragon was: "Little brother, Mr. Yiyun, do you want to say that the dragon in front of us has no legs and claws?"
Um?
Being awakened by the old Taoist priest, Jin An and Mr. Yiyun were startled at the same time. The next moment, they immediately turned their heads and took a closer look.
Although the reflection from the water surface interfered with the vision, the part below the water surface of the golden dragon was not clearly visible, but after carefully identifying it for a while, the two people could still see that the golden dragon really had no claws!
No wonder he always felt that there was something awkward about this dragon. It turned out that it was missing four claws!
In myths and legends, dragons have three, four, or five claws. For example, in the imperial court, there are sayings like the emperor with five claws, the princes with four claws, and the doctor with three claws to show the distinction between them.
But the golden dragon in front of me only has the shape of a real dragon, but does not have the claws of a real dragon.
"Is this a dragon that has not yet transformed into a dragon?" Jin An guessed almost subconsciously.
The old Taoist shook his head and said no, no, and then explained: "Even dragons can give birth to nine sons, each of whom is different. The dragons our ancestors talked about are not only walking dragons but also true dragons."
"For example, dragons with claws include Zulong, Xinglong, Qinglong, Yinglong, Huilong, Qiulong, Chilong, Yunlong, Wanglong, Yelong, False dragon, etc."
"And there are not only dragons without claws, but also dragons that transform into dragons, fish that transform into dragons, etc."
Jin An knew that the old Taoist priest was well versed in metaphysics. He interrupted the old Taoist priest who continued to deliberately show off his knowledge and said directly: "Old Taoist, what do you want to say specifically? Don't be pretentious. Have you already seen the origin of the dragon in front of you?"
At this time, even Young Master Yiyun and Qi Bo looked curiously, wanting to know what the old Taoist priest had seen.
"Have you ever heard of an ancient mythical beast, 猰(yà)萐(yǔ)?" The old Taoist priest only said it was a mythical beast, not a divine dragon.
Young Master Yiyun thought about it and said: "猰貐, a kind of god in ancient times, is a god with the head of a human and the body of a snake like the three emperors Nuwa in ancient times. The legendary 猰粐 is honest and kind-hearted. Later, due to the instigation of the god 'Wei', 猰貐
He was killed by another god "Er Negative". When the Yellow Emperor learned about this, he was very angry. He executed "Wei" and severely punished "Er Negative". He also asked his men to carry the corpse of Yuqi to Kunlun Mountain and asked some wizards to use the Queen Mother of the West to
The elixir grown from the immortal tree resurrected the dragon. Unexpectedly, after Xiaoyu came back to life, she became confused and fell into the weak water at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains, turning into a man-eating beast with the head of a dragon and the body of a snake."
"However, there has always been a lot of controversy over the records of the shape of the 茰貐 in ancient mythology. There are several records of the 猰貐 in the "Shan Hai Jing" alone. One theory is that it looks like a dragon with a dragon head.
Cannibalism; one theory is that it looks like a cow, naked, with a human face, and horse feet, and its voice is like a baby, cannibalism; another theory is that it has a snake body and a human face...whether it is a dragon head, a snake body, or a human head, a snake body,
With the body of an ox and a raccoon dog, there is no refuting the fact that the squid is a man-eating beast that only lives in the weak waters of the Kunlun Mountains."
After introducing the origin of the 猰貐, Mr. Yiyun was almost convinced by the old Taoist priest's guess. The golden dragon in the giant lake in front of him was the legendary 猰貐.
Because the catfish only lives in the Kunlun Mountains, it is enough to explain all this.
After listening to Yuqi's introduction, Jin An frowned slightly: "Kunlun Mountain, weak water, if the golden dragon in the lake is really a man-eating beast, as you said, then wouldn't this giant lake be weak water?"
It seems that this avalanche in the Kunlun Mountains is indeed a huge thing that caused the earth to break apart, and even the ancient god Yuqi was broken out.
Is it because Yuqi came back from the dead because he ate the elixir planted on the immortal tree planted by Queen Mother of the West in Kunlun Mountain, the Holy Land of Yaochi in Kunlun Mountain, and the Palace of Queen Mother of the West?
There was a sparkle in Jin An's eyes.
Regarding weak water, what people think of most is that only one scoop of weak water can be taken out of 3,000 people. The other thing is the Liusha River where Monk Sha is located in "Journey to the West". It has an eight hundred quicksand boundary and a depth of 3,000 weak water.
Regardless of the relationship between men and women, the description of this weak water in ancient mythology has always been that "it cannot defeat mustard". It is one of the most dangerous Yin waters in the world and cannot be defeated by human beings.
There is water in the north of Kunlun, but its power cannot beat mustard, so it is called weak water.
All the clues about Yuqi, Weoshui, and Kunlun Mountain became clear at once. Jin'an, Master Yiyun, and Qi Bo couldn't help but look at the old Taoist priest. They were all surprised by the old Taoist priest's extensive involvement in this ancient mythology.
At a glance, you can tell that the golden dragon in the lake is a giant dragon with the head of a dragon and the body of a snake.
At this time, Jin An turned his head to the hundreds of people who were rushing towards the giant dragon in the lake. Everyone wanted to grab the dragon ball: "The fish eats people, and the weak water cannot be defeated by humans. When these two things come together,
It seems that the lives of those who entered the lake are in danger."
At this time, he finally understood why those people from the Tianshi Mansion were not in a hurry to go to the lake to grab the dragon balls. Even the old Taoist priests could recognize it as a dragon, let alone the Tianshi Mansion of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
It is not surprising that the group of Feng Shui masters in the Tianshi Mansion, who deal with mountains, rivers, water veins, and celestial acupoints all day long, can also recognize the 茰貐.
The giant underground lake in front of them is clearly a dangerous place. The people in the Tianshi Mansion are using people from other forces as cannon fodder and asking others to help them test how deep the water is and what dangers it hides.
This is very consistent with the city of Tianshifu people.
It is estimated that the people in Tianshi Mansion did this because they wanted to test whether this lake was the weak Taiyin water in mythology that even gods can knock down and drown.
The lake is not deep and cannot reach the boat. At this time, the crowd in the lake is stepping on the gold objects under the water and has already approached the golden dragon. Everyone wants to be the first to snatch the dragon in the mouth of the cage.
Fetal Dragon Ball.
At this time, people from several forces began to compete fiercely in the lake. When the first person drew a cold knife on his back and attacked the person who was trying to climb up the golden dragon, the blood stained the lake water and gold objects under his feet, and soon there was a third person.
Two, a third, and a fourth person fell in a pool of blood, and the strong smell of blood lingered on the water.
As if stimulated by the blood, those people under the dragon head as big as a mountain gradually became red-eyed and no longer hesitated to take action. After a while, it turned into a white-hot fight, with gurgling blood spurting from the wounds of each corpse.
When he came out, there was a large area of water under the body of the red-dyed golden dragon. The clear water was soon dyed black and red by the thick blood.
But at this time, the people on the shore did not stop the cannibalism in the water. The top leaders of the plateau tribes, the Western Region forces, the Tianzhu people, and the Southern Barbarians were proudly watching their tribesmen kill the enemy in the water and compete for the Dragon Fetus and Dragon Balls.
.
Because there are not many people who can tell that the golden dragon in the lake is actually a giant dragon. Except for Jin An and the others, Tianshi Mansion, a few people with shocked and doubtful expressions, and perhaps Tantric monks.
Because none of the Tantric monks went down into the lake, among these Tantric monks there were several eminent monks from large monasteries. They seemed to have seen some clues, but they were not sure. Several eminent monks from large monasteries had been standing on the shore.
