"Is it a magic trick?"
Gu Ying was very romantic and curious.
"Senior Sister, give the little girl one.”
Luo Chen said to Miss Hong with a smile. Miss Hong came from the Moon Sect and was very good at ancient colorful tricks.
In modern times, Miss Hong had the potential to become a top magician.
"Little girl, I'll make a few simple ones for you.”
Miss Hong liked this little girl Gu Ying very much, so she showed off a few of the Moon Gate's unique tricks. As expected, Gu Ying and Guo Youde were greatly impressed and exclaimed repeatedly.
Both of them were only twelve years old, the age when they were at their most innocent.
"Waaa
"Another one, sister, another one.”
The two children cheered and Miss Hong said with a smile,""Alright, I'll change a few more for you."
Ever since Miss Hong married Francolin Whistle, she liked children more and more. She performed magic tricks for fifteen minutes without repeating them.
"Sister, you're so amazing."
"How do you do that trick? Can you teach me?" Gu Ying asked.”
"My little ability is nothing. This junior brother of mine is the amazing one.”
Miss Hong kicked the ball to Luo Chen.""What do you think, Junior Brother?”
"Alright."
Luo Chen reached into his pocket and took out two small mirror-sized scales, one green and one white.
These were the snake scales that Little White and Little Green had shed when they were asleep. They carried their auras and could ward off evil spirits and disasters. They were good amulets.
"Watch carefully."
Luo Chen folded the scales in his palm and showed them to Gu Ying and Guo Youde.
He closed his palm and opened it again, but the scales were gone.
"Where is it?"
"Where did it go?"
The two of them grabbed Luo Chen's hands, trying to find where the stone had gone, but they couldn't find it.
"Touch your pockets."
Luo Chen smiled and raised his hands to show that he had never come into contact with them.
"Pocket?"
The two children quickly reached into their pockets and indeed, they each took out a piece.
"There really is!"
"Big brother, how did you do it? When?”
Although this trick was very simple, the two children had grown up with Jianghu people after all. They were considered half professionals. Even if they could not see the trick, they could roughly understand it.
However, Luo Chen's move was too shocking.
Guo Deyou and Gu Ying didn't notice Luo Chen putting the items into their pockets.
"Big brother, I'll return it to you."
"I'll give it to you."
Luo Chen didn't take the scale back. He said,""These scales fell from the dragon's body.”
"You can take a bag and carry it with you.”
Although Little White and Little Green had yet to transform into dragons, their bodies had grown again in the past half a month.
From the original thickness of a bucket, it jumped to nearly a meter. Its entire body was more than ten times larger.
Guo Deyou had green scales. He had inherited the old River God's legacy and would often go into the water in the future. Little Green's scales could increase his swimming ability.
Gu Ying had white scales. She had grown up with the witch, so she was bound to eat the food of the dead in the future.
It just so happened that Little White was a spirit snake that could dispel Yin Qi.
"Thank you, big brother."
Although the two children did not believe that there was really a dragon, the scales were so huge.
If it was true, it would be a rare item.
"Although Dou Zhanlong is known as the God of Wealth, he doesn't have a good reputation in the Tianjing Guards.”
No one knew what the nine deaths and thirteen calamities were, so the old River God explained,""The so-called nine deaths and thirteen calamities refer to some folk legends.”
"The storytellers of the Tianjing Guards knew that the commoners liked these strange people, so they used the stories that were circulated among the commoners to describe them.”
Just like that, the old River God told Luo Chen and the others about Dou Zhanlong.
"Speaking of which, this Cui Lao saved a fried cake seller one day.”
"In order to thank the old Taoist priest for saving his life, this person took an oil ladle, filled it with some fried cakes, and gave it to Old Taoist Cui.”
"Old Master Cui took these fried cakes and met Dou Zhanlong on his way home.”
The old River God was referring to Cui Daocheng, the God of Calamity, one of the Four Great Monsters of the Tianjing Guards.
"This Dou Zhanlong is an expert who knows how to hold back treasures. He could tell at a glance that the oil comb in Old Master Cui's hand was a good thing, so he asked for it.”
The old River God said," However, this Cui Lao is not an ordinary person. He knows that the thing that Dou Zhanlong likes is definitely not an ordinary item. He definitely can't give it to him easily."”
There was a rule among treasure hunters. If someone else saw through the treasure that they had taken a fancy to, they had to share the treasure equally with the other party.
"I heard Dou Zhanlong tell Cui Lao that after I find the treasure, we will split it equally.”
"In that case, Old Master Cui agreed.”
"Cui Lao asked him why he wanted this oil comb, and Dou Zhanlong slowly explained."”
"It turns out that this oil comb was used by the ancestors of the people who sold fried cakes for eight generations.”
"This oil has already soaked through the oil grill. If you use fire, this will be a thousand miles of fire.
After that, Dou Zhanlong brought Cui Lao to a place called Jialong Mountain.
This mountain was originally the territory of the Great Jin Kingdom. The Jin Kingdom had placed all the gold and silver treasures they had plundered in this mountain, in a place called the Huayang Palace.
" But suddenly, one day, the sky collapsed and the earth collapsed, and the mountain split into two."This Huayang Palace sank into the ground.”
"The soldiers and civilians of that city, as well as countless gold and silver treasures, were all buried below, unable to see the sun.”
"The mountain will only open once every 120 years. Dou Zhanlong then told Old Master Cui,'Today is exactly 120 years'.”
However, this ancient palace deep in the mountains had accumulated bad luck for a long time. It was extremely dark and there was also a city of vengeful souls and ghosts.
Ordinary fire couldn't enter.
Only this Thousand Mile Fire could be ignited under the underground palace. Only then could one enter there and find the treasure.
"This Dou Zhanlong is really a powerful person. Even the oil comb can be considered a treasure.。”
When the flower spirit heard this, she also felt that this person's judgment was extraordinary.
If it was someone else, who would have thought that this ordinary oil comb could actually be a rare treasure?
After listening, Zhe Gushao nodded and said,""This person is indeed powerful.”
Luo Chen asked,""Since the old River God said that he was criticized, the ending of this story must not be too good, right?”
"Hehehe."
The old River God smiled and said,""The two of them entered Mount Jialong."
"Before entering, the two of them placed a lamp at the entrance of the mountain. This lamp is used to illuminate the exit.”
"As the saying goes, if the black donkey doesn't stick its head out, don't take off the lantern.”
This meant that before the two of them came out, they absolutely could not take off the lantern.
Otherwise, the two mountains would become one, and the two of them would be sandwiched to death.
"When we entered, Old Master Cui was behind us with the Thousand Mile Flame to illuminate the area.”
" Dou Zhanlong asked the old Taoist priest to light the fire, but he didn't make things clear."He asked Old Master Cui to pull out the oil grills one by one and light them up.”
"But who would have thought that Old Master Cui would actually set the entire oil grill on fire?”
What should they do? The oil grill was almost burnt out before the two of them reached the entrance of Huayang Palace.
Dou Zhanlong was naturally unwilling, but he had no choice. His life was more important.
" But this time, the two of them went back to different places,""It's now Cui Lao in front and Dou Zhanlong behind.”
"It was also at this moment that the fire in the oil grill was finished, and the two of them had no choice but to move forward. Fortunately, there was still the lamp at the exit.”
However, at this moment, Cui Lao, who was already unable to move properly, stumbled and accidentally knocked over the paper lantern at the door.
"Although Old Master Cui managed to escape, the lantern was extinguished. The two mountains joined together and crushed Dou Zhanlong to death.”
"This is how the Huayang Palace accidentally lit the Thousand Miles Fire and killed Dou Zhanlong with the Dragon Mountain.”
Everyone was stunned.
What did that mean? Dou Zhanlong was already dead?
"It's the story of a storyteller.”
Zhe Gushao said to his junior brothers and sisters,""This matter might be a legend that has existed since ancient times. Then, the storyteller forced it onto Daoist Cui and Dou Zhanlong.”
"That's right."
The old River God smiled." Although this is just a story, it also shows Dou Zhanlong's ability. He is worthy of the title of the God of Wealth."”
