Hongzhou, Longevity Palace, Octagonal Lock Dragon Well.
A hundred feet underwater, a pair of huge pupils suddenly appeared, like two pale golden lanterns, and then the originally calm underground culvert began to ripple, and there was a faint, thick, deep, thunderous roar echoing.
A huge dragon woke up from its slumber. It seemed to have been stimulated by something, and it was inspired to become wild and struggled hard.
However, eight thick iron ropes wrapped around it tightly, with golden runes flowing on the iron ropes. The harder it struggled, the tighter the iron ropes became, and in the end they even became embedded in the flesh.
Deep in the Longevity Palace, in a secret room that has been closed all year round.
A white-browed Taoist sat on the futon, his hands in the Taishang Seal, his five hearts pointing toward the sky, motionless, and even barely breathing.
In front of him, eight iron pillars were arranged to form a Qimen Bagua array. A divine sword was inserted in the center of the array, which served as the eye of the array.
The divine sword is bronze in color and has thunder patterns. One side is engraved with the word "Jingyang" and the other side is engraved with the word "Wanren", both of which are ancient seal scripts.
At this moment, the divine sword suddenly trembled and burst into brilliant light.
At the same time, the entire Longevity Palace was trembling slightly, and faint dragon roars could even be heard.
The white-browed Taoist suddenly opened his eyes, stretched out his sword finger, and a drop of blood flew out and fell on the sword body. Then the divine sword stopped shaking, and the Wanshou Palace returned to calm.
The roar also dissipated, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion.
Taoist Baimei sighed softly and said: "This evil dragon has been sleeping for sixteen years, why did he suddenly go crazy again?"
Shaking his head, he closed his eyes again, and his breathing became long and thin again.
…
Longshou Mountain.
The mountain is named after its shape like a dragon's head, and its terrain is secluded. The nearby villagers dug secret passages and caves in it to avoid wars and disasters.
At this moment, in the cave of Longshou Mountain, a large group of villagers gathered together and were discussing something under the auspices of Old Cunzheng.
"Muramasa, we can't stay like this any longer, otherwise the crops in the fields will be wasted!"
"Yes, if we don't farm, what will we do for the winter?"
"Didn't Director Li say he would help us get rid of the snake demon? Why hasn't there been any movement yet?"
"He won't forget us!"
The villagers were talking a lot, with worries written on their faces.
At first, they were worried about the revenge of the snake demon, but as time went by, the fear of the snake demon gradually faded away, and was replaced by the worry about winter.
For people in remote areas like them, every winter is a severe test of survival. Come spring, many familiar people may no longer be seen.
Old Cunzheng said: "I believe in Daozhang Li. He is a man of great ability. If he says he will help us conquer the demons, he will definitely do it!"
An old woman hesitated and said, "Tell me, is it possible that Daoist Li is also afraid of the snake demon and has run away now?"
"I heard that the snake demon is much more powerful than the bat demon. It can even turn into a human to harm girls!"
At this moment, a childish but firm voice sounded.
"Brother Taoist Master is not afraid of that snake demon!"
"Grandma Zhang, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll steal your pears!"
It was the granddaughter of old Muramasa. She held a wooden stick and said fiercely.
Granny Zhang was very angry and was about to scold her when she heard someone shouting outside.
"It's not good, it's not good!"
"Grandma Zhang, your grandson was swallowed by a big fish while swimming in the water!"
As soon as Granny Zhang heard this, her heart was on fire, she couldn't even breathe, and she fainted.
…
Longshou Mountain is an unknown deep pool.
The pool is bottomless, with many fallen leaves floating on it. It looks peaceful and picturesque, but just now, when several children were swimming here, a big brown fish suddenly surfaced, more than three meters long. Grandma Zhang's grandson was swallowed in one gulp.
The other children fled ashore in panic and told the adults in the cave.
At this moment, Granny Zhang had woken up and was lying on the edge of the pond crying bitterly. Not long after, her son and daughter-in-law also rushed over. They were very anxious when they heard the bad news, and the daughter-in-law was so anxious that she almost jumped into the pond.
This is the only seedling in their family.
However, it rained all night, and some sharp-eyed people noticed that there seemed to be a big snake approaching quickly in the distance, very fast.
"It's a snake demon. The snake demon is here!"
"The snake demon is here to take revenge. Everyone, run away!"
People looked at this scene in horror and were about to run away when they heard Old Muramasa's granddaughter suddenly shouting in surprise: "It's not a snake demon. Look, that's Brother Taoist!"
"Huh? It seems...it's really Daozhang Li!"
"It's Daozhang Li, he's dragging the snake demon!"
A moment later, with a bang, the body of a big snake was thrown to the ground, causing ripples to form in the distant pool.
A figure floated down on the head of the snake demon. He was wearing a green Taoist robe, with long hair like ink. He was elegant and elegant. A sheathed dagger hung on one side of his waist, and a small black gourd hung on the other.
It was Li Daoxuan.
"Brother Daoist!"
Muramasa's little granddaughter shouted happily. In addition to surprise, there was also a strong sense of pride on her face, as if she had gotten rid of this snake demon with her own hands.
Li Daoxuan looked at her obviously thinner face, stretched out his hand, and suddenly there were two packs of candied fruits and dried mutton wrapped in oil paper. He handed them to her and said with a smile: "Brother, I can't let you scream in vain, take it quickly." Eat."
The little granddaughter suddenly showed a sweet smile. Other children and even many adults were very envious.
Li Daoxuan waved his sleeve again, and the body of the nearly five-foot-long snake demon suddenly disappeared, as if he had hidden it in his sleeve.
In fact, it was Li Daoxuan who put it into the Three Realms Gourd. In order to prevent people from paying attention to the gourd, he deliberately made a gesture of waving his sleeves to cover it up.
Don’t ask, just ask and you’ll find out everything!
Seeing this scene, the villagers were even more shocked. They felt that Daozhang Li seemed to have become more powerful, almost like a god.
"Fellow folks, you all saw the body of the snake demon just now. This demon has been eliminated by me. You can go back to Xiaosha Village and continue farming!"
Hearing this, the villagers' eyes showed surprise.
"That's great, Daochang Li is really awesome!"
"Still called Daozhang Li? You should be called Li Shenxian!"
"Yes, yes, Li Shenxian!"
…
Li Dao
As soon as he stepped forward, he was ready to use the magic technique of shrinking the earth.
At this time, Granny Zhang suddenly ran over, knelt down in front of Li Daoxuan with a bang, and kowtowed repeatedly, her forehead was bruised.
"Please Li Shenxian, please save my little grandson! Please!"
Li Daoxuan quickly supported her, and just as he was about to speak, Granny Zhang's son and daughter-in-law also ran over and knelt down together, crying.
"My baby was swimming in the water just now and was swallowed by a big fish. Now the fish is hiding under the water. Please ask Li Shenxian to save my poor baby!"
Li Daoxuan frowned and said, "When did it happen? If it's too late, I'm afraid even if I kill the big fish, I won't be able to save the person."
Hearing Li Daoxuan's words, Granny Zhang's hands trembled with excitement and said: "That's what happened just now!"
Li Daoxuan walked to the edge of the pool, looked at the bottomless pool, channeled his magic power into his eyes, and saw that there was indeed a faint evil spirit on the water.
It's a fish demon whose skills are still shallow. I'm afraid he hasn't even developed his spiritual wisdom yet, so he doesn't pose much of a threat.
But it's hiding at the bottom of the pond, which makes it a bit difficult to deal with.
If he had not obtained the Three Realms Gourd, Li Daoxuan would definitely refuse to save people. After all, he was not willing to risk his life by going into the water.
But now...
Li Daoxuan sneered and tapped the Three Realms Gourd on his waist.
"Even if you are hiding under the sea, Pindao will take you in today!"
"Collect it from me!"
The next moment, in full view of everyone, the gourd on his waist automatically floated up and hung above Li Daoxuan's head.
call!
The water in the pool was automatically sucked up, rolling up water columns, and quickly poured into the gourd.
