Old friends meet over a cup of tea, and new words and old expressions make up the conversation.
After three rounds of tea, Chen Qingqiao stopped going around in circles to waste time and said: "I found an insignificant water dragon hiding in the upper reaches of the Huanghua River. I would like to ask Guanzhu Zhang to come and have a look. It would be better if he can tame it. Even if he fails, kill him. Just treat it as eliminating harm for the people."
Zhang Wenfeng was greatly surprised. Chen Qingqiao had experienced the bad luck of having his teeth choked after drinking cold water for several years. After Fu Ji Tai came to the good fortune, he gave him a different surprise every time he came. He put down the tea cup and asked with a smile: "Guanzhu Chen, how did you find out? Talk about it."
The "Bai Fengguan Incident" that caused an earth-shattering incident a few years ago was the clue that Chen Qingqiao discovered from a coffin shop in Xihezhou Town.
Since the lower world of immortals reorganized the world more than five thousand years ago, except for the sea area, there are very few dragons born today. Even if there are, it will be two or three hundred years after the spiritual energy tide rises. The remaining wild alien species in the barren mountains and swamps have cultivated and awakened their bloodline. , and then turning into a dragon and running away from the water, can often cause great sensation.
Chen Qingqiao chuckled: "I have been stuck in the realm of gradual decline for more than half a year. I have been wandering around and walking thousands of miles to gain experience. At the same time, I thought about looking for opportunities along the way. This time I was lucky. I came back from the south to the forks of the Yaxi River and the Huanghua River at my doorstep. When I settled in Shuihe Island, I noticed a trace of unusual evil spirit. I used my treasure to trace the two rivers up and down for thousands of miles, and spent a lot of time to find the hiding place of the water dragon."
He and Zhang Guanzhu have been through several life and death tribulations together. For things that are beneficial, it is better to find peace of mind with old friends.
Zhang Wenfeng somewhat admired Chen Guanzhu's patience and tracking methods, and said with a smile: "That matter can't be delayed. I'll ask Shangtu Dharma Protector to set off together to have a look. If the matter can be accomplished, Chen Guanzhu will be indispensable for your contribution."
Chen Qingqiao kept saying "I don't dare, I don't dare", and he was very happy. He believed in Zhang Guanzhu's character.
He chose to cooperate with Zhang Guanzhu instead of directly reporting it to the Zhoucheng Daolu branch because he knew that if he reported it, he would not get much profit in the end, and most of the benefits would be shared by others.
Instead of that, why don't the fat and water flow into your own fields, and still get a favor?
He was busy working on the coffin for a long time, and the important clues he obtained were not taken seriously. In the end, his hard work was lost and his credit was negligible.
There is nothing you can do if you don't want to be reconciled. Who can tell others to speak lightly?
Zhang Guanzhu sent a message to Tu Kun. He heard that there was a water dragon lurking in the upper reaches of the Huanghua River, and Tu Kun was very interested.
After greeting the mountain chief, the three of them flew west to Xihezhou Town, flew upstream for more than ten miles along the Yaxi River, and landed on a deserted river island where the two rivers meet.
Tu Kun checked the thatched grass where Chen Qingqiao found the evil spirit, and then went into the water to observe.
Led by Chen Qingqiao, the group flew along the river in a zigzag direction to the southwest. The speed was not too fast. Every few hundred miles, Tu Kun dropped into the water to explore for a while. In his words, it was to prevent the water dragon from escaping.
After alerting the snake, it was difficult to catch the water dragon with the strength of the three of them. They still didn't know the strength of the water dragon.
If flooding occurs and causes heavy casualties to people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, the gains will outweigh the losses.
Tu Kun wanted the Immortal Spirit Temple to monopolize the benefits of this water dragon, and did not intend to trouble the water patrol rainmaster of Daolu Academy to come forward. He also speculated that there might be relics of ancient monks near the hiding place of the water dragon?
In the early stages of spiritual energy rising, it is impossible for a water dragon to emerge into spirit for nothing.
After flying eight hundred miles, it was already dark and we arrived at Shannan County, Wanglong County.
This place has high mountains, dense forests, and sparsely populated areas.
It took Tu Kun half an hour to get into the water and set up the "Trapped Cage Black Earth Formation" in the narrow river where the two mountains faced each other. He had already noticed the evil aura in the water and the water dragon's nest was not far away.
After traveling for more than fifty miles, Chen Qingqiao pointed to the valley below a high mountain a few miles away and whispered: "The Earth Protector is right there, at the foot of Camelback Mountain."
He did not go into detail about how he used the means to determine the hiding place of the water dragon. Everyone has their own secrets.
Tu Kun nodded slightly. He had already noticed the subtle evil spirit. If you don't pay attention, it is easy to ignore it. He said: "You retreat to the hilltop where I have set up the formation to prevent the water dragons from escaping. I will go around to the upstream and set up the trapping formation. Let’s meet again here in half an hour.”
If there is no battle of wits and strength, he will come to catch a turtle in an urn.
More than a hundred miles south of this place is the buffer area between the human race and the demon race.
Zhang Wenfeng and Chen Qingqiao returned as instructed, each sitting cross-legged on the treetops to meditate. After waiting for half an hour, they rushed to the vicinity of Tuofeng Mountain.
Tu Kun had already arrived and sent a message: "I will go into the water to drive away the water dragon. Watch which direction it escapes and follow it. It will not come ashore easily. This place is remote enough, so we don't have to worry about it drowning the people."
"Be careful, underwater is no better than on the shore."
"Don't worry, I know some water techniques, but it's a pity that she's not here... Haha, I'm going down."
Tu Kun grinned and plunged into the water silently.
Zhang Wenfeng understood that the Earth Protector was referring to Yang Shuilan, the Goddess of Water. She wanted to take advantage of Tu Kun, so she was just talking about it. The arrangement was so thorough that she would not take advantage of others.
After thinking about it, he took out the "Inverted Mountain Whip" seized from the Barbarian God of Biyifeng from his waist. After practicing it for several years, he mastered several wonderful uses of the Inverted Mountain Whip, especially binding and beating. It has an unexpected effect.
If you want to catch the water dragon alive, it is not good to use a sword, the attack is too sharp.
Furthermore, he can use the Mountain Whip as a sword, but it is slightly less powerful.
Chen Qingqiao drew his sword in his hand, with his left hand wrapped in his sleeve. He looked a little excited and a little nervous. Being able to invite a fourth-level master to take action was enough to give the water dragon face.
The river below suddenly surged, water columns rose to the sky, strong winds whipped up, and the vegetation shook.
The two of them stared at the water surface, ready to take action at any time. They saw the water boiling like boiling water with a huge force. The two of them were a little surprised. The underwater dragon monster was quite powerful. It was able to fight with Tu Kun, who was at the fourth level of cultivation. It's not like running away from a confrontation.
Even if Tukun cannot be fully utilized underwater, it should not be underestimated.
Chen Qingqiao secretly rejoiced that he was cautious and did not dare to approach Tuofeng Mountain a few days ago. It was correct to only survey the upper and lower reaches. He was also lucky and did not disturb the water dragons.
After a long while, the water surface suddenly calmed down again.
The strong wind disappeared, and the mist that filled the area quickly dissipated.
Another half-quarter of an hour later, Tu Kun emerged from the water several miles away, holding a blue scale as big as a millstone in his hand, shaking his head and saying: "It's a carp spirit with majestic horns on its forehead and dragon whiskers growing out of its mouth. There are three At the next level of strength, there is still a long way to go before turning into a dragon."
Throwing the scales to Zhang Guanzhu, he continued: "It hid in the underground river at the foot of the mountain. The terrain below is complicated. We won't be able to catch it for a while, but I'm not afraid of it escaping. We still have to think of a way."
He did not mention the matter of the water patrolman, nor did he tell the complete truth.
Below is the ruins of a huge underwater monk.
Zhang Wenfeng grabbed the scales and suggested: "I'll go to the southwest. How about inviting her?"
"You ask Yue Anyan first to see how she is doing now?"
"Okay, wait a moment."
Zhang Wenfeng took out the flying sword of communication, muttered a few words silently, waved and threw the flying sword. However, when he saw the flying sword circling in a circle and then falling back into his hand, he shook his head and said, "Senior sister is probably looking for a place to retreat."
"Then wait a minute. I'll be here to guard you. You guys should go back first and don't make any noise."
Tu Kun took the scales back and sent the two of them away.
He planned to spend time with the carp spirits underground while waiting for Yue Anyan to come out of confinement.
