The black dragon was seriously injured and no longer wanted to attack the other people on the boat. He just wanted to swim away. When he entered the water, his body fell to the left. Only then did he feel someone hanging beside him. He immediately shook his head and tail to shake Jiang Shuo out. Jiang Shuo didn't know the nature of water, so he felt nervous after being dragged into the water by the black dragon. He just held on to the hilt of the sword and didn't dare to let go, but the black dragon couldn't get rid of him for a while.
Everyone on the official boat shouted loudly: "Tong'er, let go! Let go!"
Pei Min even shouted: "I don't want the sword anymore! Let go!"
However, at this moment, the water around Jiang Shuo was stirred up by the black dragon, and it was so noisy that he could hear nothing, see nothing, and could only think about not letting go! Can't let go! If you let go, you will either drown to death or be bitten into two pieces by the black dragon. You can't let go! Can't let go!
The more the black dragon struggled, the wider the wound made by the sword became. The black dragon was in mad pain and turned to bite Jiang Shuo. However, its left eye was blind and it could not see its left side. Jiang Shuo held the hilt of the sword and clung to it. The black dragon swirled around in the water and tried to turn its head to the left to bite. , even though he had sharp teeth, they couldn't touch Jiang Shuo's body at all.
Suddenly, a sound was heard, and the fisherman's iron weight flew in again, this time hitting his right eye. However, in order to get rid of Jiang Shuo, the black dragon was tumbling in the water, and it was difficult to accurately predict its next move, but this time it missed. , only hit him hard on the side of the head. The black dragon had rough skin and thick flesh, and was dizzy from the blow. He lost all fighting spirit and swam towards the water bank. It turned out that the dragon is a genus of reptiles and it is difficult to live in the water for a long time. Dragons are best at digging holes on steep water banks. The black dragon's lair is nearby. Because it is cautious and cunning, it usually hides during the day and comes out at night, making it difficult to discover. This gang of thieves found out in advance that the black dragon was hiding here, and used cattle to lure the dragon's sons and grandsons to death on the river, and then lured the old dragon out of the cave. Now that the black dragon was seriously injured by the attack, how could he care about avenging his descendants? I just want to run back to the cave to hide.
When the black dragon rushed towards the shoal with all its strength, a small boat suddenly blocked the way. The evil dragon couldn't get out of the way and rammed into it. It immediately turned the small boat into a pile of broken wood. However, no one on the boat fell into the water. An empty boat suddenly erupted with a loud noise. It turned out that the scholar had hidden a sulfur fire in the boat. When the black dragon hit it, the fire exploded and made a violent explosion. The black dragon was frightened. Xiao, hurriedly turned around and swam away, but unexpectedly another boat came over. The black dragon didn't dare to collide again, so he turned around to avoid it. This time it was the boat that the woodcutter was riding in. When the woodcutter saw the black dragon, he turned around and wanted to avoid it. Go ahead and shout, "Cut your head off!" He swings the giant ax and strikes.
When the fisherman and the scholar saw it, they shouted at the same time: "Brother Chen, no!"
While shouting and drinking, the woodcutter surnamed "Chen" finally remembered not to cut off the crocodile skin. However, the blow that split Huashan was so strong that he could not stop it halfway. Fortunately, the black dragon sank downwards, and the ax struck into the water. The thunderous strike was blocked by the river, and the woodcutter was able to take advantage of the situation.
The black dragon sank to avoid the ax blow and immediately rose up. It opened its mouth to bite the woodcutter. The black dragon came very quickly, and the woodcutter changed his moves even faster. This time he did not use the ax blade to chop, but struck the ax horizontally, with a big blow in his mouth. Shouting: "Pull out your ears!" He slapped the black dragon on the head with the ax body. The ax head was made of fine steel and was quite heavy. This time it hit the side of the black dragon's mouth and broke several of the black dragon's teeth. The woodcutter's strange strength was almost as strong as that of the black dragon. The force of this blow actually knocked the heavy black dragon to one side. The black dragon was frightened. After suffering the loss, it stopped fighting with the woodcutter and turned around in the water. Just leave.
After traveling a few feet, he saw another person blocking the way. It turned out that the woodcutter was thick but thin. He beat the black dragon and turned it towards the farmer. At this moment, the black dragon was dizzy and could not distinguish between north and south. It suddenly saw someone in front of it and opened its mouth to bite. The giant scythe in the farmer's hand was more than a foot long. At this moment, the distance between the man and the turtle was only a few feet, and the long-handled weapon could not help him. Seeing that the black dragon had already When he rushed to the front, he saw the farmer holding the sickle pole with both hands and twisting it backwards. When the sickle pole was standing up, it was divided into three parts. Each one was three feet and three inches in length at the head and tail. They were connected to each other by thin steel chains. It turned out to be a pair of three-section sticks. .
The farmer struck the short stick in the middle horizontally forward, and the black dragon's steel teeth kept biting it. It turned out that the short stick was made of fine iron. From this point of view, although the long pole of the giant scythe looks better than the woodcutter's axe, The handle is much thinner, but the weight may be heavier. The farmer blocked the black dragon head-on, and immediately hit the black dragon's right eye with the tail of the stick with his left hand. The tail of the stick was also made of fine steel. Although the blow did not blind the black dragon's right eye, it still caused severe pain and the black dragon spat out the stick. Wanting to retreat, the farmer stretched his right arm and inserted the sickle into the black dragon's mouth. Although the black dragon's skin was as hard as iron armor, its mouth was very soft. The farmer turned his wrist and tried to turn the sickle upright, so that the tip of the sickle could penetrate straight into the mouth. The brain results in his life.
However, it finally turned a little slower. When the black dragon closed its huge mouth, the sickle tip only pierced the flesh of the upper jaw of the mouth a little and was stuck by the sharp teeth. The farmer moved to grab it, but he forgot that his feet were not on the ground. With all his strength, both feet broke the deck and stepped into the cabin.
There is a saying that strength rises from the ground. The farmer's feet were empty and his hands lost strength. The black dragon got this opportunity, shook his head suddenly, and broke away from the sickle. He fled back to the water in pain. The black dragon suddenly plunged into the river, no longer showing its head, trying to swim away from the crowd and escape. Everyone on the official boat was immediately in a panic. If the black dragon hid in the water for a long time, Jiang Shuo would drown.
This day is the 15th day of the 10th month. It is early in the year and the tide is at its peak. Unknowingly, the water level of the Han River has risen a lot. The Black Dragon held his breath and dived but was unable to reach the bottom of the river. Jiang Shuo had just followed the Black Dragon. Flashing around, all the bones in his body were about to break. At this moment, he suddenly dived into the water and took several mouthfuls of cold river water. Seeing the black dragon diving deeper and deeper, Jiang Shuo's eyes became darker and darker, as if he was about to fall into this bottomless darkness. Suddenly, the black dragon's body shook, stopped diving, and was then pushed upwards out of the water by an object underwater.
After the black dragon emerged from the water, its momentum did not decrease, and it actually flew several feet away from the water before falling back to the water heavily. Jiang Shuo was lifted up by the huge earthquake. He held the sword in his hand and did not let go. With the force of the lift, he lay on the back of the black dragon and vomited out a bellyful of water. Jiang Shuo's eyes were misty, but he saw a blurry white shadow passing by under the water. The black dragon stopped swimming at this moment, floating motionless on the water as if facing a formidable enemy. In a moment, the white shadow suddenly came up again. Rush, the belly of this dragon is soft, and the white shadow under the water seems to know that this is the weak point of the black dragon, so it still attacks here. However, the black dragon was prepared this time, and suddenly popped out to the side. The white shadow missed the hit, and it was unable to recover quickly enough to shoot out of the water. It turned out to be a huge white fish!
Chen Xiandeng's wounds had been bandaged by the sailors. One of his arms could not be saved, but his life was probably safe. He was already slumped on the ground. Seeing the white fish jumping out of the water, he suddenly shouted excitedly: "The fish is in the white dragon! The fish is in the white dragon! The White Dragon King is here to save us!"
According to folklore, where there is black, there must be white, and where there are demons, there must be immortals. Since there is the black dragon king who was the incarnation of the ferocious and tyrannical Sui Yang Emperor, there is also the white dragon who transformed into a dragon king and fish costume. He Zhizhang knew that the allusion of "white dragon fish suit" originated from the allusion in Liu Xiang's "Shuo Yuan" of the Western Han Dynasty, so he told Chen Xiandeng: "Chen Xiaowei, the allusion of 'white dragon fish suit' originally said that a white dragon turned into an ordinary person. It looks like a fish, but it was shot in the eye by Yu Qie who didn’t know the truth. Why is this big white fish a white dragon?”
Chen Xiandeng's family has been a boat people for generations, and the boat people are the most superstitious. They felt unlucky when they saw the black dragon, and were even more frightened after being bitten off an arm. However, when they saw the big white fish, their spirits were lifted, and they endured the loss of their arms. Pain said to He Zhizhang: "Prisoner He doesn't know something. This white dragon is a huge white tuna. Legend has it that white tuna is born in Shengshui at the west end of the river. As soon as it is born, it flows down the river for six thousand miles until it enters the sea and grows. When he was about twenty years old, he swam up the river and returned to the place of his birth. Ordinary white tuna can live to be forty years old, and the grown ones are only six or seven feet tall, but this white dragon king lived for hundreds of years. He is now 20 years old and is no less than three feet long. He has traveled back and forth between the river and the sea countless times. Every time the Dragon King swims into the river from the sea, the boat people on the river say it is the White Dragon King patrolling the west. I saw it once when I was a child by the river in my hometown of Yangzhou. White Dragon King."
Pei Min said disapprovingly: "There are so many big fish in the world, how do you know that this white fish is the White Dragon King you saw when you were a child? I think the rumors are not entirely true."
Chen Xiandeng was usually obedient to his superiors, but when he mentioned the legends passed down by the old boat people, he became extremely stubborn. He turned to Pei Min with difficulty and said: "Pei Gong doesn't know. Bai Tuna has five bone ribs all over its body, and one of them is in the middle." The thickest one is the back, but the White Dragon King has six ridges, and there are two ridges on the back, which look like a dragon's back when exposed from the water."
Pei Min was good at hunting with a bow and had excellent eyesight. He looked around, but saw that the white tuna had missed the hit and had fallen into the water again. It was slowly swimming around the black dragon looking for an opportunity to attack again. Pei Min watched carefully. Its body was huge, its whole body was white, and its back was partially exposed out of the water. It turned out to be two backs. I couldn't help but marvel.
The black dragon suddenly faced a powerful enemy, but it calmed down and was no longer in a hurry to escape. It floated on the water and stopped quietly, waiting for the white dragon to attack again. Most of the dragon's body was submerged in the water, with only its snout, nose and back exposed on the water. Jiang Shuo was lying on the back of the black dragon, not knowing whether he was dead or alive. Fortunately, the black dragon was no longer eager to throw him away at this moment, but focused on the confrontation with the white dragon.
It's hard to tell which one is good or evil between the black dragon and the white dragon. One wants to eat cattle, sheep, and even people, while the other only eats small fish and shrimp. In fact, it's all due to physical properties, and it's hard to tell the difference between good and evil. But everyone in the world thinks that eating fish and shrimp is Good, eating humans and animals is evil; white is yang, which is good, and black is yin, which is evil. Therefore, when the white dragon came out of the water, not only Chen Xian ascended, but also everyone on both sides of the soldiers and bandits was excited. The bandits stopped and watched the duel between the two dragons.
White tuna likes to be active during the day, while white tuna comes out at night. It can be said that the well water does not interfere with the river water. However, every full moon night, the bright moon illuminates the river water clearly, and the white tuna will come out at night against the clock. To eat, tuna dragons like darkness and avoid light, and become restless every night when the sun is shining. Therefore, tuna dragons rarely fight each other when the moon is full. The two things, one yin and one yang, are naturally in conflict with each other. Once they encounter each other, they will fight. Till death. I don’t know how many new moons I fought. The thieves obviously knew about this, and they specially looked at the sun to slay the dragon, thinking that if the black dragon was too fierce to be subdued, the white dragon would be able to help. As expected, the river was full of people tonight, attracting not only the black dragon, but also the white dragon. White dragon. But the white dragon also knew that the black dragon was fierce, so he stayed dormant under the water until the black dragon was seriously injured and was about to break out and escape. Then he suddenly rushed out from the bottom of the water and caught the black dragon by surprise.
