When I saw the four words on the text message, I shook my phone at Nangong Fan. She pointed to her phone and said that she had also received the same message.
After receiving the text message, I contacted Hu Jiashu. After confirming that he had also received the message, I said to him: "See you in Dragon City."
Hu Jiashu also said with a smile on the phone: "See you in Longcheng."
It took us a little more than a day to get to Longcheng. When we arrived at Longcheng, it happened to be noon the next day. Although it was noon, there was no sun in the sky, and instead there was heavy snow.
The city is covered with heavy snow, and Dragon City is particularly beautiful in winter. It seems like it has turned into a snow country.
The lake surface of Longhu never freezes all year round. Snowflakes fall into Longhu and disperse quickly, with snowflakes and ripples. Longhu is so beautiful, and Longcheng is so beautiful.
After we entered the old city of Longcheng, we stopped for a while next to Longhu Lake and then headed to the palace attic. When we got here, I found Li Guidao waiting for us at the door. After saying hello, he led us
Going inside, what we went to this time was a large hall in the attic of the palace. This place is very large. I estimate it can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time.
There is no place to sit in the palace. There are futons on both sides. In the center of the palace, there is a platform carved with lotus flowers. There are several lampstands with dragon patterns around the platform, and there is also a futon in the center of the platform.
When we got here, Li Dihuang, Xu Rui, Tian Sihan, and Wang Xiaoran were already here.
I inquired about Yi Yibai's situation, and Li Guidao said: "His strength is not yet strong enough and there is no way for him to work with us on the case."
I nodded and asked Hu Jiashu.
Li Guidao said: "It should be on the way here. It will be there soon."
While talking to Li Guidao, we walked into the main hall. Several people inside also greeted us with fists in their hands.
Tian Sihan and Wang Xiaoran came over directly to greet us. Among these people, they are the two who are most familiar to us.
After everyone said hello, Tian Sihan said: "Chen Yu, how can you return your snack food to the Gu King? I heard that you have exchanged many powerful Gu insects from Penglai Fairy City, and your snack food should still be returned to the Gu King."
Not promoted to a higher rank? It’s going to be so incredible in the next rank.”
I said, I don't know either.
Wang Xiaoran also said: "Everyone has improved a lot in the past six months. When we work on a case together, I feel that the safety factor has increased a lot. At least it should be much safer than when we worked alone before!"
Xu Rui smiled beside him and said: "When we meet the real master, it may be a group of people. When Uncle Li arranges for us to solve cases, he never lets us waste manpower!"
For a while, we started chatting in the palace, and Li Guidao said again: "You guys chat first, I will pick up Hu Jiashu, he is definitely coming."
At this time, I saw that the blond beauty next to Xu Rui was not there, so I asked her: "Where is your blond girlfriend?"
Xu Rui smiled and said: "She has returned to China and will not come to us in the near future. We are busy working on cases and have no time to play with her."
We chatted for a while, and then Li Guidao brought Hu Jiashu in. After another greeting, Li Guidao said: "Okay, I will arrange the case today. Let me first tell you the name of our case.
"
As he spoke, Li Guidao paused for a moment, then raised his voice and said, "The name of our case this time is Furong Cave, Tiger and Flood Dragon Group."
When I heard the name, I was a little surprised and said, "Isn't Furong Cave a famous scenic spot in the Furong River area? I heard my classmates say that they also showed me photos of Furong Cave. What big case could there be there?"
Li Guidao said with a smile: "The size of Furong Cave is definitely not as big as what you see in tourist attractions. There are many places in it that people can't reach. In addition, Furong Cave is also divided into upper and lower floors. The upper floor is the place we often talk about, but
It’s different down there.”
I asked again: "What is a tiger dragon?"
Hu Jiashu explained from the side: "It is the name of a fish in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". It only exists in myths and cannot be tested in reality. It is said that the fish has a body and a snake's tail and belongs to the genus of dragon. It is said that eating its meat will make people unable to
It can cause swelling, and it can also cure hemorrhoids, but it doesn’t describe how dangerous it is.”
Li Guidao said: "The reason why the tiger dragon has the word 'tiger' in its name is because it has a ferocious temperament and a strong sense of territory. The tiger dragon is very big. Common tiger dragons are three to five meters tall. The largest tiger dragon is
It can be up to 100 meters long.”
"Furthermore, tiger dragons are products left over from the time of the chaos of the ancient times. They have the blood of the tiger in their bodies."
Chaos? What is that? I couldn't help but ask.
Li Guidao explained: "Jian, you should know that he is the originator of the four ancient zombie kings. Legend has it that he was transformed from the jawbone of Pangu. He is extremely powerful. In the prehistoric period, that is, before the mythical period, in order to create the same kind, he
They were forced to have relationships with many giant beasts from the ancient world, and then gave birth to many nondescript monsters. Most of those monsters were ferocious and cruel, so they caused great chaos in the ancient world. It was precisely because of disrupting the order of the ancient world that we had the future.
The emergence of the gods reorganized the order, and the age of mythology came."
I nodded and said, "In that case, I understand. In that case, wouldn't it be true that the existence of the tiger dragon has been unknown for tens of thousands of years?"
Li Guidao said: "Furong Cave was formed more than 1.2 million years ago, and Tiger Jiaoduo existed earlier than Furong Cave. How many years do you think they have existed?"
I shook my head and said I don’t know!
Li Guidao did not continue to talk about the age, but continued to introduce the case. He said: "The tiger dragon group has been under the second floor cave of Furong Cave. Currently, the second floor cave is all sealed. The purpose is
In order to prevent the tiger dragons from coming out and causing trouble, the tiger dragon groups have gradually become a little restless recently and there are strong signs of breaking the seal and coming out, so we need to seal it again as soon as possible, or simply get rid of them."
"By the way, there are probably more than a hundred tiger dragons in the swarm. The largest of them is the several hundred meters in size I just mentioned. It is almost as strong as an immortal. It will be quite tricky to deal with."
I asked who sealed that hole before.
Li Guidao said: "In the beginning, gods in the mythological period sealed it. In the human-oriented era, people did not notice the seal here at first. It was not until a thousand years ago that two tiger dragons ran out and created two corpse villages in Guizhou.
It attracted the attention of the supernatural world, and later people from the Tsing Yi sect came forward to stamp the second level of seal, which remains until today."
Tsing Yi sect, isn’t that the same sect as Wang Zhuhan and Tsing Yi Shengzun? No wonder Li Guidao knew so clearly.
Li Guidao continued: "What we need to pay attention to is that the corpse poison of those tiger dragons is extremely strong. When fighting them, be careful not to be infected by the corpse poison. It is the corpse poison of the Jian bloodline and is difficult to cure."
A few of us nodded.
After we almost understood the situation of the case, we went to say goodbye to Master Li.
Master Li didn't give too many instructions and just said: "Go back quickly!"
He didn't seem to worry about our safety at all. You must know that there was Li Dihuang in our group, and Li Dihuang was his biological daughter.
After leaving Longcheng, a group of us rushed to Chengdu first, then rested for a day in Chengdu, and flew directly from Chengdu to Furong Cave near Furong River in Chongqing.
They are all Earth Immortals, and flying all the way does not consume much, but it consumes a lot for me, a monk in the Tribulation Stage. By the time we got near Furong Cave, one-third of my spiritual power had been lost, which was still
I rested for a day in Chengdu, otherwise my spiritual energy would have been exhausted by the time I got here.
When we arrived near Furong Cave, we found a place to stay near the scenic spot. When I recovered my spiritual power, it was almost evening. We did not enter Furong Cave from the entrance of the scenic spot, but from Sifang Cave by the Furong River.
Follow the underground river into Furong Cave.
Then Li Guidao led the way, wandering around in the dark underground world. Li Guidao seemed to be very familiar with this place. In this complicated underground world, he didn't even miss the path once. We walked along
A rugged cave continues to the underground world.
This cave has rugged rocks and is extremely humid. If we hadn't been protecting our bodies with Tao Qi, our clothes would have been soaked long ago.
After walking for a while, I asked Li Guidao, "You seem to be very familiar with this place."
Li Guidao smiled and said: "I just saw the distribution map here. It was given to me by Senior Brother Wang Zihan. He had been here alone before, but the seal here was still very good at that time, so he didn't need to take action.
.”
When Wang Zihan was mentioned, I remembered going to the upper world, so I asked: "By the way, I remember you once said that all our cases this year were related to going to the upper world, and so is the case of the tiger group.
Is that so? So far, I haven’t heard any connection!”
Li Guidao said: "Whether it's related or not, we won't know until the case is over. I can't say now."
While walking, I talked to Li Guidao, and the few of us became less bored.
After walking for a while, Li Guidao stopped in front, then turned to look at Li Dihuang.
Li Dihuang nodded, then directly took out a small compass, then made a finger gesture and pointed at the compass several times.
Soon the compass pointer rotated a few times and stopped. She was stunned for a while and then said: "No problem, you can keep walking!"
Li Guidao nodded, and then we continued moving forward.
It turns out that Li Guidao stopped just now to let Li Dihuang predict our fortune.
I was curious and asked Li Dihuang what he had calculated just now. Li Dihuang said: "The seal has not been broken yet, and the specific time when the seal will be broken!"
I asked when.
She said: "Seven days later, seven days will be enough for us to deal with the things here."
Li Dihuang is very confident.
After walking for a while, Li Guidao suddenly stopped. He pointed to the wall for us to look at. When we got there, I saw an Octopus Mirror sign painted on the wall.
Li Guidao said: "The Baji Mirror is now controlled by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. It seems that the broken seal here has a lot to do with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance!"
It's the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance again, what is their purpose this time?
Wait, Mai Xiaorou's corpse poison is the original corpse energy, is Jian also the original corpse energy?
This tiger dragon is the descendant of Jiao. Is there some connection between Mai Xiaorou's corpse poison and the tiger dragon? (To be continued)
