In the early morning, steam rises from the cool river water.

The morning sun has not yet risen, and the mist-filled river is very quiet. Wisps of mist float slowly, bringing a chill. The surface of the river is white, the sky connects to the river, the river connects to the sky. The distant mountains on the other side are like the legendary fairy mountains in the sky. If there are any literati here

I will definitely recite a few poems praising the picturesque scenery.

After a while, the thick fog clinging to the river surface slowly flowed, which was really magical.

It's like putting a layer of gauze on a river mask...

Lujiang Town is right by the water. There are hundreds of households in the town, which can be considered a big town. It relies on mountains and rivers to eat. Most of the townspeople living on the river rely on fishing or ferrying on the river for their livelihood.

Some fishermen carried their fishing nets onto their old wooden boats, hung lanterns, and cast their nets into the misty river.

A certain man was the first to get out of the boat, rowing his oars through the quiet river water and moving forward leisurely.

The fog wetted his eyebrows and beard, and the hair on his slightly aged face was covered with water drops. The boat was blurry and difficult to see clearly as it passed through the fog. In the distance, a waterbird flew close to the river and disappeared into the vast fog.

The man wiped the water droplets on his face and spat. Maybe he was scolding the landlords in the town for being stingy, or maybe he was scolding the fact that not many fish had been caught in the river recently, and they didn't know what to do upstream, but they could catch fish every day.

White hair and bloated corpse.

I hope today won't be too unlucky.

Come to a water area where fishing is frequent, pick up the fishing net and cast it out with all your strength!

Wow~

The fishing net fell into the water and tightened, and the man's hands skillfully pulled the fishing net back. The fishing net was empty and contained nothing. However, the man may have been accustomed to catching nothing in one net, so he tidied it up and continued to cast the net.

The strange thing is that even after searching through the net, nothing was caught.

The man cursed loudly, and his cursing turned into talking to himself, saying that he would catch fish and sell them so that he could buy hairpins for the widow Hu in the village and stay at her house for a few more nights.

An ordinary fisherman in a small town was fishing on the river. The water was slow at the bay. The man looked up at the mountain tops in the distance illuminated by the rising sun. The entire lake was much brighter and the river could be seen.

Occasionally there were broken wooden boards flowing down the river, and he decided that he must catch a big one today.

"Hey~!"

The fishing net was thrown far away and fell into the water. After it sank, I pulled it back hard. When I pulled it for the second time, the man’s hands stopped. It was so heavy! It’s in stock!

The fisherman with a happy face pulled hard, but soon his face turned ugly because he couldn't pull it at all.

Obviously, he was either hanging on the reef or was caught by a half-floating gloomy log. If he didn't let go, he would probably be dragged into the water with the net and he would be drowned. Just when he was feeling distressed and ready to let go, suddenly the fishing net came back.

It became loose, which was very strange. The fisherman bent down and looked into the water out of curiosity.

Then, I saw the long white figure under the water...

"My dear! I fished out the river god!"

The man sat down in the cabin...

Something big happened in Lujiang Town.

A man from the Qiao family caught the Dragon King in the river when he fished in the morning. However, the Dragon King was motionless and seemed to be dead. After discussion, the fishermen and boatmen in the town just fished it out and took a look. They took action as soon as they were told, and gathered a dozen people with fishing nets and ropes to sink the water half-submerged.

The floating white dragon was pulled to the shore.

Before noon, all the people in the town, men, women, old and young, gathered on the river beach.

One by one, they stood on their feet and watched the long river god pulled up from the water by the men in the town. Several ropes were put around his head and body and pulled hard, little by little toward the river beach.

The old man marveled and told the legend of the Dragon King. The children gathered around the motionless white dragon and occasionally reached out to touch it secretly.

The women gossiped, and the men gathered together to discuss what to do.

To ordinary people, a giant 20-meter-long white snake is no different from a dragon. According to the rules handed down from ancestors, when encountering a big snake, you must call it a dragon. The reason is unknown. Besides, they don't have much experience. Anyway, they feel that calling it a dragon king is definitely right.

Some people suggested building a tomb and building a temple for the dead Dragon King, while others suggested sending the Dragon King back to the river, but no solution was found despite all the noise.

Suddenly, a certain idle man who had not eaten breakfast said something.

"Anyway, the dragon is dead. They say that dragons are mythical beasts and eating their meat can lead to immortality and cure all diseases. It's better to just eat it."

Instantly, the atmosphere became weird...

In particular, the saying that immortality cures all diseases has touched the hearts of some people. The landowners in the town, who originally wanted to eat dragon meat, were delighted to hear this and fanned the flames. For a group of ordinary people who are accustomed to legends of gods, ghosts, and ghosts, the idea of ​​dragons

Meat has an irresistible attraction, and the eyes staring at the white dragon gradually become greedy.

"I don't care if it lives or lives. I haven't eaten dragon meat in my whole life. Get it!"

Then, the people of Lujiang Town rushed towards the huge motionless white snake like crazy, waving the hatchets in their hands or grabbing it with their hands. However, they could not pull it away even if the hatchets struck it, sparks flickered, and the Dragon King was confirmed.

Rumor has it that a quick-thinking person went home and slashed the wound with a kitchen knife. The cut was not too deep, but red blood flowed out.

Seeing the legendary dragon's blood, someone lay directly on the huge dragon and opened its mouth to drink the blood...

Bai Yujun had a dream.

I dreamed that I fell into one of those tall ant nests near my hometown in Shiwanda Mountain. Countless ants climbed up and bit and drank blood. They bit off the flesh and blood one by one and it was so painful. I wanted to turn over and crush the ants to death, but I was so injured that I had no strength!

The picture in front of me was blurry and flickering, and I finally woke up. Then I saw a scene that frightened the snake.

A group of men, women, and children clung to his body like ants, frantically tearing at his wounds and swallowing blood...

In desperation, he tried to twist, but was unable to do so due to the serious injury, so he only swayed slightly.

"Ah! The dragon is still alive..."

Some people retreated in fear and ran away. They had been exposed to the legend of dragons since they were young, especially when they worshiped the Dragon King of the River all year round. It was okay to eat some of the dead Dragon King's flesh if they had the courage to do so. They were almost frightened to death when they found out that the Dragon King was alive.

However, those who drank snake blood and their eyes turned red due to the strong energy in the snake blood became crazy.

The flesh and blood of monsters, especially snake demons like Bai Yujun, have powerful energy. Even those who are not monks or martial arts practitioners can realize the benefits. People who feel the benefits are even more greedy!

"Get the rope! Tie it up!"

"The rope is useless! Use rocks and fishing nets!"

The townspeople brought various objects to suppress Bai Yujun. Bai Yujun struggled hard, but his injuries were too severe and he could only twist a little. He pushed several strong men down and in a blink of an eye, another group came running over. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape.

Seeing that nothing happened, those who originally ran away couldn't help but be tempted to come forward again after thinking of the various benefits of dragon meat.

In Lujiang Town, there was no fishing or ferrying today to focus on eating dragon meat. All kinds of iron tools were put into battle, and people of all ages stepped forward to help, as if they were celebrating the New Year.

The men held down the white snake and wielded knives to chop the meat and catch the blood. The women helped boil water to cook the meat. Children jumped around waiting to eat the delicious meat.

Bai Yujun struggled to twist and turn to prevent these madmen from messing with the wound. Every time he swayed, several people would swing wooden sticks and hit the snake's head. He tried to struggle into the river but was blocked...
