Chapter 401 Slaying the Green Flood Dragon (5/24)
Wude Village needs help
I'm not afraid of Zou Tan's request, but I'm afraid that the other party won't ask for help. If Zou Tan asks for help, he won't get it. 23us.

Yu Buzhi said with enthusiasm: The village chief said it's okay, as long as I can help, he didn't dare to refuse.
Zou Tan bowed deeply: In that case, I would like to thank the Wude villagers for their gratitude to the Lord of Wuzhi City.
Zou Tan left the small courtyard with Yu Buzhi and headed for the lake outside the village.
Yu Wuzhi just walked by the lake not long ago. The previously clear and mirror-like lake has become dark and turbid. There are still black turtles basking in the lake, but no white cranes can be seen passing by the lake. There are more lake shores.
A large wetland, originally covered with aquatic plants in shallow water and on the shore, seemed to have been plowed by something, exposing the black soil underneath. There were two rows of paw prints on the bank, and there was a small ditch in the middle of the two rows of paw prints. The fish was not wise.
Visual inspection at the scene showed that they should be traces left by the tail of some kind of animal.
The old man stood by the lake and said worriedly: "Unwise city lord, there is a dragon in the lake."
Jiao
Yeah, a green dragon.
Yu Buzhi looked solemn.
Jiao is a dragon that can produce water in ancient Chinese legends. Jiao dragons are often witnessed by people and are widely known. Jiao inhabits lakes and other water gathering places, and they also quietly live in seclusion at the bottom of ponds or rivers far away from people's homes. Hideaway
Dragons in ponds and rivers are generally called latent dragons.
Regarding the origin and shape of the dragon, there are different opinions in classical literature. Some say that a dragon without horns is called a dragon, and some say that it has scales and is called a dragon.
It can be seen that the Jiao and the dragon are very similar. The difference is that the dragon is a divine creature and the Jiao is an animal.
Jiao live in water gathering places and often fight for control of lakes. Strong Jiao can win the lake, while weak Jiao can only live in ponds or small rivers. This lake outside Wude Village occupies a large area and the water is clear.
Jingying, the dragon that can occupy this place is obviously not a weakling.
Yu Buzhi asked: How big is this dragon? Does it have horns?
It is three feet long and has one corner.
Yu Buzhi took a breath of air.
Ten feet is one zhang, and one foot in the Han Dynasty is about 23.1 centimeters. Three feet is converted into meters, which is almost seven meters. The total length of the dragon is generally about three meters. In other words, the green dragon in this lake is about the size of an ordinary dragon.
What's even more terrifying is that this green dragon also has horns, and not all dragons have horns.
The nearly seven-meter-long one-horned green dragon makes one's head grow bigger just thinking about it.
The old man told Yu Wuzhi that not long after the ancestors of the Zou family came here to build a village, they discovered a dragon in the lake.
Wude Village is mostly ordinary people, and they rely on the Zou family for protection. There is a dragon causing trouble, and the Zou family is obliged to do so.
At that time, the green dragon was not powerful. The ancestors of the Zou family inherited the inheritance of the Yin Yang family and were proficient in formations and divination. They suppressed the green dragon with ease. However, after being injured, the green dragon escaped to the bottom of the lake. The ancestors of the Zou family were unable to eradicate the root. As time went by,
As time goes by, the green dragon in the lake grows bigger and bigger, and becomes more and more powerful.
The balance of power between the two sides continues to wax and wane. About two hundred years ago, the Zou family no longer had an absolute advantage.
Unable to eradicate the consequences, the dragon's appetite increased greatly as it grew, and the fish in the lake were eaten less and less by it. Zou had no choice but to find another way to curb it.
Legend has it that as long as a turtle is placed in a school of fish, no dragons will come, so the Zou family went out to buy some. The ancestor of the Zou family couldn't tell the difference between a turtle and a turtle, so he simply bought some of each and threw them into the lake.
But the eggs were still useless. The green dragon ate the turtle and left only the turtle. It must be because the turtle shell was hard and the dragon was a little disgusted. As a result, the fish in the lake became increasingly rare and the number of turtles increased.
A hundred years ago, the Zou family was unable to kill the green dragon, so they could only drive it away when it came ashore and barely protect themselves.
In recent years, the situation has become increasingly serious.
Ten years ago, Zou Tan's son was killed in a battle with Qingjiao. His wife died of depression soon after giving birth to a posthumous daughter, Zou Feng. Zou Tan experienced the pain of losing his son and wanted to break the tradition and give him a foreign surname.
However, the Zou family inherited the value of talents, and there were too few people in Wude Village, so they could not find a suitable candidate. The old man had to fight against the powerful green dragon alone to defend Wude Village.
The old man can still manage to support himself, but he is old and has to consider the future of Wude Village.
This is why he asked Yu Wuzhi for help.
After hearing this, Yu Buzhi sighed: I thought this place was a peach blossom garden, but I didn't expect that there was a green dragon causing trouble. Xun Yuan lived here for a period of time, why didn't he mention it?
Green dragons come ashore every month, but Xun Yuan has not encountered them, and the villagers have not mentioned them to him, which only adds to his worries. The old man sighed: This is the general situation, and the unwise city lord is willing to help.
The system prompts.
Dingdong: Zou Tan, the head of the Yin-Yang family, has issued a mission to kill the green dragon. Do you accept it?
Of course accepted
Yu Buzhi said solemnly: "Don't worry, village chief. Now that I know about this, I will never stand by and watch. Later I will summon the soldiers under the tent to discuss and find a way to kill the green dragon and restore peace to Wude Village."
The old man said: If the unwise city lord can eliminate harm to the people, I will be rewarded in the future.
Yin Yang family test task: Kill the green dragon
Mission description: Within one month, eliminate the green dragon that is causing harm to Wude Village.
Mission reward: Zou Tan’s recognition.
The Yin Yang Family test mission, the reward is the approval of the Yin Yang Family head, which makes Yu Bu Zhi think about it.
The task description is simple and clear, but the difficulty is not small at all.
The mission deadline is within one month. Zou Tan has reminded that the green dragon will land once a month. In other words, Zhulu Ling only has one chance to kill the green dragon. It must be hit with one hit and there is no room for failure. One month seems like a long time.
It is short, but converted into real time, it is more than three days and less than four days, so preparations need to be made in advance.
Yu Buzhi finally arrived at Wude Village. The land was not yet warmed up and he did not want to go back so soon. He decided to ask everyone in the world to help inform Xu Shu and others. He only said that he wanted to kill the dragon, but did not tell where.
I would never reveal the secrets of Wude Village even if I think about it.
The system prompt sounded again.
You are in a special scene and the communication bracelet is temporarily unavailable.
I have no choice but to make a trip in person to learn more about Wude Village. I can only wait for the next opportunity.
Yu Buzhi returned to the village and found little Tom.
Little Tom is lying quietly on his side on the ground, enjoying the big cat's careful care.
Tom, we have to go back.
To deal with the seven-meter-long one-horned green dragon, it was necessary to mobilize elites from the territory. Without a kitten to escort, no one could pass through the long underground cave, not even Yu Wuzhi. He didn't know how many people would be needed, considering the opportunities.
It’s only once, so the more the merrier, it’s likely that the kitten will need to bring the person in several times.
The kitten reluctantly got up, pushed its head under the big cat's jaw a few times, and said goodbye.
Watching the kitten disappear at the entrance of the cave, the fish unwisely returned to the lake and drowned himself back into the city.
In the city lord's office, white light flashed.
