Tongtian River is one of the largest rivers in Dazhen. It stretches across half of the country. It turns south through the southern border of Dazhen and then flows into the East China Sea of Dazhen. Except for a few places where the river sections are slightly narrow, most of the river sections are very wide.
The place where Ji Yuan is located can be considered as there is no difference between the two Zhuzhu cliffs, but the river is gentle and there are no big waves.
Although the fish float floated up and down in the river, there seemed to be no sign of fish taking the bait.
“Mr. Ji~~~Mr. Ji~~~”
Someone on the shore called Ji Yuan. It was the old man who rented the awning boat to him. At this time, the old man was standing on the shore carrying a small pottery pot and wrapped dried lotus leaf dumplings, and looked towards Ji Yuan. Fate beckons.
Ji Yuan put away the fishing rod, picked up the oar, and slowly paddled closer to the shore.
“Hehehe, Mr. Ji, this is two kilograms of home-brewed local wine. I brought it to you specially, old man. It’s cold today, why don’t you stay in our village tonight?”
The boat approached the shore, and Ji Yuan stood up and took the wine and food from the old man.
“Thank you, Mr. Chen, but I’m naturally resistant to freezing. Besides, this awning boat can keep out the rain, and it can be sealed at the front and back. There are bedding inside, so it won’t actually freeze.”
Old man Chen shook his head. He still didn’t know whether the awning boat was freezing or not.
Mr. Ji Da is gentle, polite and knowledgeable, but he just likes to make his own mistakes. He has lived on this awning boat for so long in the cold weather.
“Didn’t you catch any fish today, sir?”
The old man glanced at the fish basket on the bow and found it was empty.
“Yes, two dragons passed by under the river today, which scared away the fish. They were hiding everywhere, how could they dare to bite the hook!”
Ji Yuan replied with a smile.
“Hahaha, Mr. Ji, you are joking again, so please take it easy, old man, I will leave first. If you can’t bear it at night, please come to Xia Shatou Village. There is still a guest house at the old man’s house, anytime. Here! ”
Ji Yuan put down the food and wine and raised his hands towards the old man.
“Okay, I will definitely go if necessary. Good luck, old man Chen!”
The old man also bowed his hand, tightened his clothes and turned around to leave. Mr. Ji Da seemed to be really not afraid of the cold, but he was really a good person. He paid enough for rent and even wrote a letter for him. A letter from home is sent to the eldest daughter who is married away in another country.
After Ji Yuan watched old man Chen leave, he sat back on the awning boat.
Look at the surface of the Tongtian River. Unlike Chunhui Mansion, which is full of tourists on boats and boats, there are very few flower boats on the Tongtian River. Of course, it may be due to the season.
First he uncorked the pottery pot and smelled it, then took a sip of the wine. It was a little cloudy but the taste was okay.
Untie the hemp rope on the dried lotus leaf buns, open the lotus leaves and reveal the four steaming buns. After smelling the aroma, Ji Yuan knew they were filled with three vegetable fillings and one meat filling.
Just sitting cross-legged on the bow of the boat, eating steamed buns and drinking wine, looking at the surface of the Tongtian River, just for a while, there was another blurry black shadow swimming from the distance, a dozen or so people. With a body length of ten feet, countless aquatic people hurriedly avoided it when it was swimming at the bottom of the river.
‘What happened under the river today? There are too many dragons in Tongtian River, or are they not all from Tongtian River? ’
It is difficult to see dragons in shallow water, but even in big rivers they may not be found, and even if there are not many, and they are lazy and unwilling to move all year round, Tongtian River can be regarded as an outlier.
However, out of curiosity, Ji Yuan would not dare to stop a dragon and ask. With his skills, it would be boring for him not to draw his sword and fight for his life.
Although “The Legend of Hereditary” has a great prejudice against monsters, there is one thing Ji Yuan still believes in, that is, the dragons are not very good-tempered.
Underneath the Tongtian River, a dragon holds its four claws against its belly, twisting its body and swimming in the water. Its eyes are as bright as amber headlights. In addition to seeing everything under the water clearly, from the corner of the eye, one can also catch a glimpse of the waves rippling on the surface of the water. Those mortal ships in.
Just when he was swimming close to somewhere ahead, the dragon suddenly felt that someone on a small boat was looking at him. As he swam closer and closer, he found that the other person’s face was always facing his body.
After about a few miles of waterway downstream from the small boat, the dragon turned around again and found that the people on the small boat were drinking by themselves and did not look at him again.
‘This person does not have any magical light appearing… Is it an illusion? ’
Throwing away the thoughts in his mind, the dragon continued to swim forward. Soon it would be the real dragon’s thousand-year birthday. Anyone from the water tribe in the four directions who could have some connections would be eager to come here to celebrate their birthday, but those who were qualified were not. Many, he happens to be one of them.
Ji Yuan swallowed the local wine in his mouth and chewed the dregs in the wine. Just now, there was another dragon, and his intuition was quite keen. He just stared at someone for a while, and he seemed to be noticed by the other party.
. . .
The Tongtian River section, one hundred and fifty miles south of Jiyuan Xiaozhou, is more than ten miles wide. It is surrounded by mountains and forests, and the depth of the river is even more difficult to estimate.
Under the cover of the restriction covered with water plants on the bottom layer of the water, there is a magnificent palace-like building complex standing here. This is not only the Tongtianjiang River Shenshui Mansion, but also a dragon palace.
At this moment, the Dragon Palace is very busy, with aquatic monsters hurriedly moving through it. Some are carrying cauldrons, some are carrying screens, some are laying crystal paths, some are busy cleaning aquatic plants, and countless colorful fish are shuttled back and forth.
There was just a man and a woman sighing in the main hall, which was in sharp contrast to the vitality and joy outside.
“Hey… Dad hasn’t come back yet, and now it’s too late. He, the birthday boy, is not here!”
The speaker was a well-proportioned and handsome man. He was wearing a silk satin gown and a gold and jade crown. He was sitting lazily on a soft chair.
Standing next to her is a woman. Her clothes are similar to those of a man. Her face is delicate and gentle, her hair is **** like a flower. Her long hair and temples are almost dragging to the ground. She is also frowning.
“I said I was looking for a friend. I couldn’t miss him on my birthday, but I couldn’t find him after searching for a long time… It’s good now. Dad can’t find his friend, and we can’t find him. Alas…!”
While the two were complaining to each other, Yaksha stepped into the temple.
“Report to Empress Jiang Shen that the master of Tianshui Lake has arrived.”
The woman nodded and waved her sleeves.
“I got it. I’ll arrange to go to the palace to rest. By the way, I told him to try not to reveal his dragon body. Many of the water tribes who are helping are not very good, and the dragon energy will make everyone uncomfortable.”
“Yes, I am resigning!”
Yaksha bowed and left the palace.
After Yaksha left, the lazy man sitting back said.
“You said Dad won’t come back even on his birthday, right?”
“How is that possible! Dad still has some sense of measure!”
The woman immediately refuted him, then thought for a moment and added hesitantly.
“If…I mean if, you become like your father, do you think everyone will see through it?”
“Cough…cough…little sister, do you know what you are talking about? You are pushing me into the fire pit of rebellion!”
The woman smiled awkwardly.
“Just talking…”
There was silence in the hall for a while, and the man who was looking for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com began to drink. The woman also sat in her seat with her eyes closed to relax. In fact, her spiritual thoughts covered the water house, checking the preparations for various things for the banquet.
During this period, Yasha or other aquatic spirits came to report, all of which were about which prominent person was coming.
. . .
At this moment, on Wafeng Mountain on the edge of Chunhui Mansion, Old Long Yinghong was standing on the cliff above Heifeng Valley, looking at the mountain-opening sword mark below.
Even though it has been so long, judging from Lao Long’s Taoism, there is still a faint but unstoppable shocking sword intent permeating the air.
When Yin Zhaoxian returned to his hometown from Guibang High School, the county magistrate took the lead in throwing a banquet. At that time, Lao Long went to Ning’an County again, thinking that maybe Ji Yuan would go back to congratulate him, but he didn’t.
I visited Yin Zhaoxian again in private and saw that he had already exhausted his alcohol. After careful questioning, I learned that he was almost killed by an evil spirit. After further chatting, Lao Long, who learned about the conversation between the City God and Yin Zhaoxian, also speculated Some other situations arise.
I hovered over Chunhui Mansion for a long time, and finally found Wafeng Mountain. Seeing the grace of this sword, it is no wonder that the Chunhui Mansion City God asked Yin Zhaoxian whether the master he knew used the sword.
“Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan…I’ve been looking for you for three years and I can’t find anyone. Where did you go?”
Old Long was a bit dumbfounded. Usually people were looking for him, but now he was looking for people.
And it’s so true that we can’t find it yet!
