"He asked: In the past, the Dragon King opened a waterway and walked the dragon into the sea. The mountains were overturned, the rivers were overturned, and the water was flooded for eight hundred miles. How many mortals turned into fish and turtles."
"Is it right or wrong?"
Old Chen looked sad and said to Chen Yang: "This is a criticism of Lord Long. How dare you answer it?"
"How can I say whether Mr. Long is right or wrong?"
Chen Yang nodded silently, and it sounded like Lao Chen was just venting, not trying to get any answers.
As expected, Lao Chen continued: "The young man and his son did not dare to answer, and the old man in rich clothes did not care, and asked again:
The Dragon King has suppressed the world for 500 years. Demons are not allowed to enter, natural disasters are not allowed, and man-made disasters are not allowed. Only good weather, peace and joy are allowed.
500 years have passed. Merits are rewarded and crimes are punished. Is it a merit or a crime for Lord Long?"
Old Chen looked sad again and said depressedly: "Sir, can you please comment on Long Jun's merits and crimes? Is that something that a young man can say?"
"We don't dare to comment."
Chen Yang nodded silently and couldn't help but asked: "Then what?"
Old Chen said gloomily: "The little old man and the little boy really didn't dare to answer. Seeing that the old man was not angry and self-assertive, he was obviously not a mortal, so he could only kneel down and kowtow.
The old man said, 'That's all,' and when we looked up again, we couldn't see anyone."
"We didn't dare to sleep, so we just sat there until dawn. As soon as the wind and rain subsided, we came back immediately.
Sir, you will know everything that happens next.”
Chen Yang slowly shook his head and looked at Lao Chen with a look of regret.
Isn't that old man probably Mr. Long?
On that day that was of great significance to him, Long Jun appeared in front of ordinary people born and raised in Longmen County like Old Chen and his son, and asked those two questions, which were both Long Jun's self-blame and his prison.
If Mr. Chen and his son could give the correct answer, what awaits them would not be a "just", but a fairy tale.
Chen Yang thought of this and immediately shook his head, knowing that it was impossible.
In this world, there are never fewer opportunities and encounters, but few people are able to seize opportunities and encounters, ride on the wind, and turn into dragons when encountering storms.
A great person does not become a great person because of his chance, but because he has the unique talent to become a great person.
According to the parlance on earth, it is survivor bias.
Everyone only saw the big men rising in the wind, but they did not see more people being messy in the wind and getting nothing.
Chen Yang had good intentions and did not point this out to Lao Chen.
The matter is over and it won't help. No matter how much you talk about it, it will just make Lao Chen and Chen De and his son sigh and feel annoyed for the rest of their lives.
So why bother?
Chen Yang remained silent, but Lao Chen spoke. He looked left and right, and whispered: "Sir, tell me, the little old man and his son must have met that person, right?"
He stretched out his hand and pointed toward the southeast.
In the southeast of Longmen County, along the Longjiang waterway, the Longjun Temple is located on the river bank.
Chen Yang nodded and said, "It should be that one."
Old Chen let out a long breath, showed a look of relief, and said: "I guess so too, little old man.
Fortunately, I didn't talk nonsense, otherwise I would have offended Mr. Long, what would I do?"
Old Chen's feeling of joy made Chen Yang feel uncomfortable.
He actually knew that the people of Longmen County might have complained against Lord Long 500 years ago, but now he is dead. To Lord Long, 500 years is nothing, but to mortals, 25 generations have passed.
Nowadays, the people of Longmen County only have respect and admiration for Lord Long, but they don’t remember anything else.
In Chen Yang's view, Long Jun was just trying to make a trap.
As for Lao Chen, in fact, as long as he answers Long Jun's two questions with his heart, he may be able to rescue Long Jun from self-doubt, and thus gain a fairy fate for himself.
"Pity."
Chen Yang murmured to himself.
Old Chen said in surprise: "Sir, what did you say?"
