In the world of Journey to the West, there are many dragon kings, and their status is generally not high.
For example, in the battle of Qing Niu Jing, Shui De Xingjun "checked the four seas, five lakes, eight rivers and four rivers, three rivers and nine sects, and all the dragon kings were sent away." Therefore, many people compare the dragon king with the city god of the earth and mountain, both of which are management. The little god of a territory, Xiaolong.
However, compared to the earth and mountain gods, the Dragon King has quite a lot of power under his command, such as the huge Shui Tribe.
Not to mention the Four Seas Dragon Palace, even if it is a "tan" level unit, the number of aquatic tribes is probably at least tens of thousands, and they are so majestic.
So gradually, some dragon kings could no longer carry their own weight and ended up in a miserable end, such as the Jinghe Dragon King and the Bibotan Dragon King.
In comparison, the Dragon King of the Four Seas adheres to his duties particularly well. When Wukong asked the Dragon King of the East China Sea to help, he did not forget to think of his great leader, "Although I am in charge of rain, I dare not specialize in it. I have to obtain the orders of the Jade Emperor and tell me where to go." How many feet and inches, what time to get up and live, and the three officials to write, Taiyi to move the text, will order the Duke of Thunder and the Mother of Lightning, Feng Bo Yuntong..."
When Wukong fights against Red Boy, as long as some rainwater is needed to extinguish the fire, the Dragon King of the East China Sea does not dare to do it alone. He also asks his "brothers to help the Great Sage perform his work". He knows how to form a team. The four brothers appear together and advance and retreat together. Unfortunately, the Dragon King secretly rains. The true fire of Samadhi could not be extinguished, and it burned more and more fiercely, causing Wukong to suffer a great loss.
In a sense, this is also to take care of the leaders. Otherwise, if Hong Boyer's fire is really extinguished, what will happen to Guanyin Bodhisattva?
The purpose of Li Yan's trip was the Dragon King of the East China Sea. While others were focusing on the Dragon King himself, he considered the situation of the Shui Tribe.
So as early as in Hangzhou Bay, Li Yan refined the elixir, supplemented it with magic power, and consciously went deep into the water to search for traces of the aquatic people.
However, at that time, we still didn’t know the status of the Dragon King and whether there was a master of the East China Sea, so we had some reservations about our actions.
After all, the Shui Tribe is the direct descendant of the Dragon King. Li Yan has never done such things by engaging in offensive behavior under the banner of doing good for others.
Until last night.
Don't be offended. Now the Dragon King of the East China Sea has been directly counterfeited. No matter what the reason behind it is, this sea is essentially ownerless, so there is no need to be polite.
The fishing line is made of the golden threads refined on the wrist, and wisps of specially refined mana are passed out, mixed with the recently developed divine forbidden knowledge. At the same time, Tao Yin throws some fish-bait-like debris on the side from time to time. , are all transformed by elixirs.
The fish in the deep sea are gathering more and more, and the presence they are attracting is getting stronger and stronger. They are lingering around and observing without rashly approaching.
Li Yan was calm, still throwing out the tempting bait, and chatting with the two Taoists Luo Gong: "Who were the people who were entrusted with dreams last night?"
Luo Wanxiang said: "There are them on every ship, and most of them are disciples of the Zhengyi Dao. I have less than ten people in Chaotian Palace, and there is not even one person in Shenzhen."
Li Yan said: "Is there a pattern?"
Luo Wanxiang already knew that this person was also entrusted with a dream, so according to Tan Yangzi's evaluation, "the practice is not enough and the state of mind is not enough", he obviously also included the other person.
While he was organizing his words, Gong Kepei spoke: "My master said that basically only those with low cultivation level will be selected. Now there are many good and bad ones in Zhengda. Of course, within it, Mr. Li has great medical skills, but his cultivation level is also shallow. He was selected." It’s not surprising…”
Luo Wanxiang could only smile awkwardly and said apologetically: "Junior sister is straightforward, I hope sir will forgive me!"
"Does Taoist Luo think that I am a weakling? This is because he doesn't understand me very well."
Li Yan laughed, and his eyes moved slightly: "Is his cultivation low... Is Tao Shien also entrusted with a dream? Not to mention whether this person is qualified to be called a Little Heavenly Master, his cultivation is not low, right?"
Gong Kepei was disdainful: "It's not surprising that people with weak minds are also targeted!"
Li Yan groaned.
Luo Wanxiang wanted to expose this offending discussion and asked quickly: "In your opinion, sir, how true or false was the Dragon King last night?"
Li Yan said: "In my opinion, it is 100% fake, but the plot is very cleverly arranged."
Luo Wanxiang was stunned, and Gong Kepei also didn't understand: "Since Mr. Li's assertion is false, why do you say it is brilliant?"
Li Yandao: "Many successful scams are actually full of loopholes, because what is fake cannot be true. There is no such thing as a perfect lie. Instead of focusing on the details, it is better to seize the target's weaknesses. That was the case with last night's scam..."
Luo Wanxiang suddenly realized after hearing this: "Yes, we went to sea this time just for the Dragon King. When we saw the Dragon King entrusting his dream with our own eyes, those who are eager to make contributions will naturally be very excited and convinced."
Gong Kepei also understood: "You only need to let people who are willing to be fooled be fooled. As for those who are calm, you can't be fooled in the first place, so why waste your efforts?"
This is actually a telecom fraud routine of later generations. It is not the kind of high-intelligence scam seen in movies and TV shows. Many of the victims are not fools, but are deceived by seemingly inferior means that take advantage of various weaknesses in human nature.
Therefore, when many people have not encountered a scam, they sneer at it and wonder how it is possible to fall into such a trick. However, when they encounter it themselves and are really deceived, they regret it.
However, to achieve this, you need to have the upper hand, that is, have basic information.
This was what Li Yan was thinking about. He thought for a moment, waved his sleeves and put up a sound barrier, and said something that shocked the two of them: "There is a certain possibility that the Central-Earth cultivators who went to sea this time are spies of the enemy.
"
Luo Wanxiang's eyes widened: "How do you say this?"
Li Yandao: "Because the enemy selected the wrong person, I shouldn't have been entrusted with the dream..."
If he pretends to be the Dragon King and uses some kind of Taoist screening method, it is impossible to select him. But Gong Kepei's straightforward words just reminded him that in the eyes of outsiders, he is a doctor with magical skills but a person with average cultivation.
Bullying.
After all, not many people knew the details of capturing the evil land, and they would not know that he had learned the earth-moving technique for several hours and beat the evil land until it was running away. In the general impression, the better a miracle doctor's medical skills are, the more likely he is to do so.
Naturally, there are inevitably deficiencies in this aspect.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! From this point, Li Yan has generally ruled out the suspicion of Jin Yiwei. What he now suspects is that there are enemy spies among these Middle-earth cultivators.
, betrayed the basic information, and then had the accurate dream entrustment of the fake Dragon King last night.
After hearing the selective explanation, Luo Wanxiang and Gong Kepei's expressions became solemn: "The culprit must be the Japanese. If there is a traitor who cooperates with the Japanese, this trip will be dangerous!"
Li Yandao: "There are two opinions on this matter. It may also be that I am more sensitive and do not conduct a large-scale search to avoid panicking people, which may be taken advantage of by the enemy. However, you two still need to inform Senior Chongxu and Senior Tanyang and inform your fellow disciples.
Be prepared for any eventuality.”
Luo Wanxiang nodded: "I understand!"
Gong Kepei's eyes became sharp: "It must be a thief hiding in the Zhengyi Road. We can't just wait, we must quickly track down and find out the thief!"
Li Yan said: "This is not difficult. Last night's dream will not be the end, but just the beginning. As the fleet deepens, the 'Dragon King' should appear again and lead us into the circle of Japanese pirates. By then, if
If you can fake news and then observe the movements of the thieves, you can determine whether there is an insider, narrow down the scope, and finally uncover them."
Luo Wanxiang and Gong Kepei nodded repeatedly, and this time even the latter showed admiration: "Mr. Li is indeed a great talent. It seems that nothing can trouble you!"
Li Yandao: "When things come to an end, it will not be too late for Taoist Gong to praise him. Otherwise, he will inevitably worry about gains and losses, and even hope that there will be a spy..."
Gong Kepei looked at him and said seriously: "I have a feeling that Mr. Li's Taoist heart will not be affected by such things at all!"
Li Yan smiled and the three of them chatted for a while before Luo Wanxiang and Gong Kepei said goodbye and left.
Watching their figures disappear, Tao Yin suddenly said: "Is the young master testing them?"
Li Yan raised his eyebrows: "How do you say that?"
Tao Yin said: "The Taoist sects on the ship this time are the three main forces, Zhengyi, Chaotian Palace and Shenwang."
"Zheng Yiyi is eager to seek merit, and it is owned by the current Tianshi. The possibility of them colluding with the Japanese is very small. Although Chaotian Palace and Shen Powang are royal Taoist temples, their power is declining day by day. The two old seniors have to become Tao Shien's foil.
, if some of them are dissatisfied with such a gap, the possibility of colluding with the Japanese will be greater!"
"The Japanese pirates landed on the southeast coast, which also facilitated contact with Taoist temples in the south. My mother was outside Nanjing at that time and threatened to flood the southeast coast. As a result, Japanese practitioners quickly found me and disguised themselves as me.
, defrauding trust, this shows that the footprints of Japanese practitioners may have been to Nanjing, did they have any contact with Chaotian Palace, Shen Guanglan at that time?"
Li Yan's eyes showed approval: "Having such a calm analysis shows that you are increasingly balancing human nature and demonic nature, and you are a good and capable assistant."
Tao Yin felt inexplicably honored, refreshed, and asked for orders: "I am willing to be responsible for tracking down the spies!"
Li Yan said: "Don't worry, many things in the world are coincidental. Just from a dream, you can't be sure whether there is a traitor. As I just said, it's not advisable to go to war, let alone disrupt the original plan. Be careful first.
That’s it.”
Tao Yin nodded: "Understood."
The bow of the boat became quiet, and Li Yan immersed himself in the ocean again.
The Earth God has almost no subordinates, while the Dragon King has countless shrimps, soldiers, and crab generals. If you can master a group of water tribes through the easy and difficult process, it will be the best way for the next confrontation and to understand the current real situation of the Dragon King.
However, his current mana is not enough to penetrate into the deep sea, so he passes the mana from point to point, through the medicinal properties of the elixir, like a baton, to find a target with increasingly stronger spiritual power.
With such efforts, more and more powerful aquatic creatures are moving towards this side, and there are even faint signs of giant creatures approaching.
Li Yan immediately stopped the call. The Ming Navy was not far from here and wanted to avoid causing waves.
There are already a large number of aquatic creatures gathered, and they are being screened to find the most spiritual species among them.
After a while, Li Yan looked down, his eyes penetrated the sea and landed on a small turtle.
