Myths Begin From Boys' Gong

"Is what you said true? Dragon Balls are extraordinary things. Could it be that there really are dragons in this world?"

Meng Zhao's words seemed to be questioning, and his gaze was directed at Kong Daoba and the other person, wanting to verify the truth of his words from them.

Kong Daoba was not really not afraid of death. On the contrary, he took life and death very seriously. It was just that he was not clear about Meng Zhao's interests before.

At this moment, he truly witnessed how terrifying Meng Zhao was. Although his evil aura and fierceness were still there, he was still three points weaker when facing Meng Zhao.

He thought about it carefully for an unknown period of time, and suddenly said,
“I don’t know much about the dragon vein, but the dragon ball thing should be true.

It is said that in the early years, on our Xiaohan Mountain, there was a Feihan Waterfall and Tianxuan Pond. In it, there was a giant creature that had lived for who knows how many years. It was not known whether it was a python, a dragon, or a dragon. If this legend is true, it may really have a dragon ball hidden in its body!"

Meng Zhao nodded. Although the spiritual energy and vitality in this world were almost non-existent, it was not the end of the world without any extraordinary powers. The existence of martial arts and the legend of secret medicine were enough to prove that there was still a possibility of extraordinary existence.

True dragon creatures are inherently sacred. If they really existed in this world, I'm afraid they would be weakened and worn away beyond recognition by the will of heaven.

It is not that creatures like dragons and pythons cannot exist. On the contrary, over the years, they take powerful mountain medicines or swallow giant mountain beasts to gradually cultivate supernatural powers with their blood and qi, which is similar to the current Tianyuan martial arts.

Wen San, who was listening over there, also had an idea. His own precious armor was made of the scales of a hundred-year-old python. Could it be that this old python was the one that nurtured the dragon ball?
Or, is this old python the descendant of the creature that nurtured the dragon ball?
For a moment, he was a little distracted, his soul was wandering in the sky, and thousands of thoughts were running through his mind, wondering whether he could get any benefit from it.

It’s not that he overestimates his own abilities and wants to find the existence of Dragon Ball alone or with Kong Daoba and the other two.

Rather, since he was determined to join the Su family of the Three Lions Chamber of Commerce, if he presented this clue to the Su family, he might be able to make a great contribution.

Others say that this clue may be shown off or lied.

Most outsiders also think that this is a far-fetched theory, and is no different from the myths and legends passed down from generation to generation by the elderly.

But he is different. The fact that he is still wearing the armor is proof of this.

With clues and evidence, won't he get the credit?

Of course, there is still one hurdle that they don’t know if they can overcome, that is, whether Li Zheng will really let them go!
Wen San is different from ordinary people, even though Li Zheng shows contempt and disdain for him and seems to be willing to let him go.

But Wen San was not a rookie. He believed whatever others said and always left some room for maneuver.

For example, he never revealed any information about the armor he was wearing to Li Zheng. He was just keeping a trump card in mind, hoping that if the other party changed his mind, he would give it a try. If it worked, it would work. If not, that would be it.

Meng Zhao listened with great interest. Yes, yes, the theory of real dragons was a little too mysterious. Although he knew very well that real dragons existed, they should be extinct in the Tianyuan world.

If it is a creature like a dragon or python, it is different. Some ferocious creatures and spiritual creatures that have existed for a long time gradually develop extraordinary powers, which is no different from the so-called dragon.

For example, a giant snake or python is called a small dragon, or a crocodile is called a pig dragon.

“It’s quite interesting. If what Kong Daoba said is correct, Xiaohan Mountain should be a treasure land. It contains spiritual energy and nurtures giant beasts. However, they will not easily leave the so-called Tianxuan Pond.

Zhou Zhihan is both a killer and a government official. She has been hiding in Xiaohan Village for many years. It is impossible that she is here just for ordinary things. It is likely related to the rumors about the dragon ball. I don’t know how much information she has mastered.”

Meng Zhao knew very well that even if it was not the so-called dragon ball, but just a dragon ball or a python ball, as long as it was old enough and its energy was pure and strong enough, it still had infinite value and fortune.

Taking secret medicine is essentially using a special energy to unlock the treasures of the human body and stimulate its potential.

This so-called "Dragon Ball" is essentially no different from a martial arts secret medicine.

If it really is a dragon or python, even if it has a little more dragon energy, Meng Zhao will definitely be determined to get it and will not allow others to spy on it or covet it.

Meng Zhao asked again,
"Over the years, has no one in Xiaohan Village been interested in this legend? Has no one gone deep into Xiaohan Mountain to investigate?"

It’s not that Meng Zhao didn’t believe it, but if the treasure really existed, even if the villagers turned the entire Xiaohan Village upside down, they would never let it go.

For example, even if there are money and jewelry stored somewhere, there will be countless people who are blinded by greed and desire to go and explore and search for it, let alone a treasure like Dragon Balls?

As for the Tianxuan Pond, not everyone would dare to go there. Snakes and pythons are terrifying, not to mention that they are almost demonized, which makes people avoid them as much as possible. Unless one is very brave and foolish, only a person with a mental disorder would seek death there.

Hearing the Three Ways,
“As far as I know, no. It seems that people don’t really believe in this legend, especially the dragon ball and the python story, which are completely nonsense.

The reason why I know all this is because my ancestors have been in Xiaohan Mountain for a long time, and I just got a glimpse of it.

If it were Han Dali and others, they might also know about this legend, but they would just treat it as a story and not take it seriously. "

Wen San had something else in his mind that he hadn't said. "Before you asked me about this, I also thought that those were all made up stories by our elders to flatter themselves. Who would have thought that such mysterious things could really exist?"
He even suspected that the person who sent the baby Li Zheng to the entrance of Xiaohan Village was also quite interested in this legend, so he chose Xiaohan Village instead of other villages.

It has even been confirmed that this is not a legend, but a true fact.

For this reason, a special layout was made, using Li Zheng's experience over the past decade to become a resident of Xiaohan Village, and then gradually implicate the Dragon Ball.

Now, if Li Zheng is found, it is estimated that the information that there is a treasure in Xiaohan Village will be revealed. Perhaps, Li Zheng is expected to find the Dragon Ball?

Thinking of this, Wen San suddenly felt that his idea was a bit far-fetched, but it was not completely unreasonable.

In particular, Li Zheng clearly knew nothing, so why did he suddenly pay attention to the extraordinary things in Xiaohan Village?

Of course, everything is just Wen San’s guess. Since it is a guess, it may be accurate or not.

For example, he knew nothing about Zhou Zhihan's existence, so he had no idea why Meng Zhao had received such information. Therefore, this series of speculations was wrong from the beginning.

However, there is something correct in what he said, that is, Li Zheng must have been eagerly pursuing the so-called dragon ball and regarded it as something that would be in his pocket.

If he could survive Li Zheng's hands, perhaps he wouldn't need to wait until he became successful in the future. He could just lure the Su family from the Three Lions Chamber of Commerce in the county over here, which would have the effect of driving the tiger away to devour the wolf. It would not be impossible for him to take revenge directly.

Li Zheng might have someone behind him, and he himself might be quite powerful, but in Wen San's heart, the Su family of the Three Lions Chamber of Commerce was the real big force.

After all, if Li Zheng really had some impressive background, he wouldn't have been abandoned at the entrance of Xiaohan Village that year.

"Li Zheng, we've told you everything we know. Shouldn't you let us go?"

Wen San couldn't hold back any longer. He now urgently wanted to rush to the county town and tell the Su family everything he knew.

He was looking forward to seeing Li Zheng being taught a lesson by the Su family, or even killed. This would surely make him feel happy and excited from the bottom of his heart. Kong Daoba and another person also looked at Meng Zhao expectantly. This guy would not go back on his word, would he?

However, Meng Zhao's subsequent performance made the three of them feel uneasy as if a huge rock was pressing on their hearts.

"Haha, why are you in such a hurry? I still have a lot of things I want to ask you."

Li Zheng's understanding of Xiaohan Village was too one-sided and he knew too little. It was rare for him to have someone like Wen Sansan to act as his living guide, so naturally he had to make every effort to use them.

Meng Zhao asked Han Dali and the Han family, asked Zhang Shitou and the Zhang family, asked Sun Datou and the Sun family, asked Wu Laodao, asked Gu Xiaoqing, asked Gu Daqing, and even asked Chen Xian who had passed away.

When it comes to Chen Xian, Meng Zhao has some impression of him.

After all, although this powerful figure was obviously not of the same generation as him, he was also a powerful figure in the village back then. He also gave Li Zheng some food out of pity for him.

According to him, after Chen Xian died, since he had no family, his remains were collected and buried by the village elders such as Han Dali.

His house and inheritance were also confiscated by the village.

Meng Zhao was not very interested in these things. On the contrary, he was very interested in why Chen Xian died.

Meng Zhao heard three different versions of the story from Wen San and the other three people, but they all led to the same conclusion.

According to Wen San, Chen Xian's behavior was so arrogant and domineering that he offended a big shot in the county. At the same time, he did not handle his relationship with his brothers in his gang well, so he was ostracized and ended up in a miserable way.

Kong Daoba in the air also said something similar, but the source of the offense was because of a woman. Because of this woman, Chen Xian went from being a rising star in the gang to a cripple, and eventually returned to Xiaohan Village, where he died soon after.

What the last person said was also quite interesting. He heard from the gossip coming from the county that Chen Xian had taken something he shouldn't have taken, gained some benefits he shouldn't have gained, and was hated by others, which led to his eventual fall into this situation.

But no matter what, offending people and being framed is certain.

Meng Zhao remembered that Chen Xian was actually quite similar to Wen San back then. He was crazy about martial arts and would not miss the chance to learn martial arts if given the opportunity.

Back then, Chen Xian was the person who learned the most from Wu Laodao.

"Do you think Chen Xian got some secret martial arts records from the county, which led to his miserable end?"

Meng Zhao's guess was bold, but in the eyes of Wen San and others, this guess was completely unfounded.

Wen San said bluntly,
"When Chen Xian was brought back from the county town, he had nothing with him, and his home was filled with old furnishings. There was no way there would be any secret records of martial arts.

Moreover, if there really was any martial arts in Chen Xian's family over the years, I'm afraid it would have fallen into the hands of Han Dali and others long ago!"

Meng Zhao did not agree with this point.

In Li Zheng's memory, there is actually an important memory about Chen Xian.

Back then, Chen Xian was a well-known big brother in the village. He was not like Wen San, who hated or despised Li Zheng. On the contrary, he took good care of Li Zheng, probably because he felt sorry for the orphan.

In Li Zheng's heart, he was also very grateful to Chen Xian, and even felt a kind of kinship.

When Chen Xian was carried back from another place, Li Zheng secretly went to Chen Xian's home to visit him when it was dark and no one was around.

Meng Zhaoneng learned from his memory that Li Zheng and San Gouzi stole a hen from a family, made it into a roast chicken, and gave it to Chen Xian as a gift.

However, Chen Xian was seriously injured at that time and could not eat. In the end, the roast chicken was taken by Li Zheng and San Gouzi.

This is not the most important thing. That night, Chen Xian actually said something very strange.

The gist of it is, things are unpredictable, I got what I always wanted but I didn't have the chance to use it, this is a huge regret and I will never rest in peace even when I die.

At that time, he was actually in a confused state, and perhaps had some rationality, so he said such words.

Li Zheng, a man who has no other thoughts except eating and surviving, naturally could not know the secret.

But Meng Zhao was different. When he thought of Chen Xian, he thought of martial arts. With his passion for martial arts back then, the thing he had been thinking about all the time, and wanted but could not use, was most likely martial arts.

Moreover, based on Chen Xian's knowledge, ordinary external martial arts may not be able to arouse his emotions. It is most likely that he will resort to internal martial arts practice.

The secret records of martial arts, combined with the secret medicine of martial arts, can achieve true martial arts cultivation, stimulate the potential of the human body, and develop the body's magical reserves.

Only in this way can it be consistent with what Chen Xian said, that he would die with regret.

Of course, it could also be the woman that Kong Daoba mentioned, but it is a bit far-fetched.

At least, in Li Zheng's opinion, compared to Wen San, who is obviously a lecher, Chen Xian does not value or care about women very much.

He is quite a martial arts fanatic.

On weekdays, he likes to hone his body and increase his strength. Women are just a diversion in his occasional leisure time.

Although Meng Zhao possessed infinite wisdom in martial arts, it was impossible for him to deduce the martial arts of the Tianyuan Dynasty from scratch without a reference. This was not the effort of one person, but the effort accumulated by countless people and countless generations.

In a short period of time, Meng Zhao could not find a channel to obtain true martial arts.

It was already a blessing for Zhou Zhihan to have obtained two external skills. As for internal skills, it would be impossible, at least in a short period of time.

There is even less hope for Wu Laodao.

Therefore, Meng Zhao searched his memory and learned about Chen Xian's existence and his foolish words before his death.

Maybe it's not really confusion, but just a kind of emotion before death.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire martial arts and gain a foothold in this world. (End of this chapter)
