The best little magician in the countryside

Chapter 614 Origin of Dragon Bone Stream
Jiang Chen is not afraid of his opponent targeting him.

Because the strong are all honed in the face of countless opponents.

But he hates the villain hiding behind his back.

To be more precise, it is a hypocrite who has a smiling face on the surface, but hides a devil's blade behind his back.

If there is any enmity, just stand up and fight openly.

Even if he can't beat Jiang Chen, if he wants to play dirty tricks behind his back, then he still has to use some high-level tricks, and every time he only uses those little tricks that don't have much effect at all, it's really disgusting.

Dragon Bone Stream was originally an extremely dangerous place full of dangers.

Coupled with the fact that the Luo family, Han Badao and others were also looking for opportunities to take revenge, this line of work undoubtedly increased the difficulty for Jiang Chen several times over.

Of course, Jiang Chen, who followed the crowd, didn't think about these things.

The enemy is in the dark, they are in the light.

Taking some precautions is just a drop in the bucket, after all, who knows when and under what circumstances the opponent will choose to attack next time.

Simply, it is better for soldiers to cover the water and soil.

Walk all the way.

Although the road is not far, the mountain road is rugged, and because no one travels there all year round, the team's progress has been slowed down a lot.

sunset.

Everyone finally arrived at the edge of Longgujian when there was only a little light left in the setting sun.

"Everyone hurry up and set up tents, we will rest here today, and enter Dragon Bone Stream tomorrow morning." Wen Wu shouted at the crowd.

A group of people went to the side to get things like tents. The men were divided into three groups, some went to build tents, some went to collect dry firewood, and some prepared cooking utensils, while the women stayed aside to rest.

Of course, including Luo Yanran, there were only three women who came on this trip.

“The mountains here are quite unique.”

While Jiang Chen was collecting firewood, he was also observing the surrounding situation.

At this time, they can almost be said to be in a basin.

And it is surrounded by continuous high mountains.

Standing tall, it seems to be separated but finds a connection from another angle.

More importantly, the vegetation on this mountain is quite different from those on ordinary mountains. Most of them are bronze or purple in color. Even though it is already autumn, the leaves have not turned yellow. Not to mention being able to see a little green in the jungle.

Huo Xiaofei, who was standing not far from him, came over with two dead logs on his shoulders and smiled, "Dragon Bone Stream was not named by modern people, nor was it named by a certain person in a certain period."

"Then where did this name come from?" Jiang Chen asked.

"There is a record in the "Shan Hai Jing". It is rumored that during the period of Dayu's flood control, this place was originally a swamp, and there was a dam nearby, that is, behind the dragon bone stream, which was one of the largest dams at that time."

"Due to the endless floods, Dayu was worried that the dam would collapse and flood the villages outside, so he sent people to build the dam and divert the water inside to other places."

Saying that, Huo Xiaofei threw the dead wood aside, simply sat down and looked at Jiang Chen.

Then he continued what he just said: "Just when everyone finished building the dam and diverted the water from the northwest, they unintentionally dug out an iron chain."

"Everyone pulled the iron chain together to no avail, and because if the iron chain is not broken, it will affect the water control, so they ordered people to cut off the part of the iron chain connected to the mountain and throw it into the river."

"I never thought that the moment the iron chain was thrown in, a waterspout hit everyone immediately. The tornado dissipated, and most of the people who controlled the water died. Before they started to panic, they saw a blue dragon suddenly appear."

"Dragon?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.

Huo Xiaofei nodded: "That's right, there isn't much description in the "Shan Hai Jing" about this paragraph, it just mentions the appearance of a dragon in an understatement, and briefly describes the appearance of that dragon."

"What does it look like?" Jiang Chen asked.

Huo Xiaofei spread his hands and smiled: "It says that its head is like a lion with horns like a deer, and its body is 15 meters long. Oh, this 15 meters is converted by me using modern numbers."

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "You continue."

"This object has fish scales, its color is copper, and there are five claws under its body, like eagle claws. The tail is like a fish, but it has scattered whiskers."

Speaking of this, Huo Xiaofei said: "The color of the scales described here is different from that of the dragons we know, and there are several peculiarities."

"what?"

"The eyes are like copper bells, the left is white, the right is black, the tail can make the water surge, and the mouth can make the water spit fire."

After hearing this, Jiang Chen grinned: "It's quite a mysterious story."

"It's just recorded in ancient books. Even if this kind of dragon really existed back then, it would probably be dead by this time." Huo Xiaofei smiled playfully: "Want to hear the story behind?"

"Didn't you say that only some fragments were recorded?" Jiang Chen laughed.

Huo Xiaofei smiled: "Since the decision to come here, Tianfu has sent people all over the country to search for information about this, how could there be only these."

Jiang Chen turned his head and saw that the people around him were still busy, so he also sat down: "Tell me and listen."

Huo Xiaofei nodded and said: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas only records that there is a dragon coming and going, and there is no other description, but it also gave an ending, that is, the appearance of the dragon angered Dayu, and Dayu killed him. It fell to the mountain stream in front of the embankment, so it is called Dragon Bone Stream."

Hearing this, Jiang Chen interrupted him and asked: "That's not right, the giant dragon fell to the mountain stream, shouldn't it be called Julongjian or Longjian? It's the bones of a dragon."

Huo Xiaofei smiled meaningfully: "The records in the Shan Hai Jing may not be the facts, and the folk legends may not all be false."

"Oh?" Jiang Chen smiled with great interest: "Could it be that the continuation of this story is more interesting than the record?"

Huo Xiaofei pointed to the copper-colored vegetation on the surrounding mountains: "I just said that the scales on that dragon's body are copper-colored, and you look at these again."

After Jiang Chen looked around, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the connection here?"

"According to the folklore, almost all the people who came to control the water were swallowed by the giant dragon, and only a few people fled back and told Dayu the news."

Huo Xiaofei continued: "Then Dayu came forward with troops and horses, formed an formation to fight the dragon, trapped the dragon with the power of the formation, and then drew his sword and stabbed the dragon's reverse scale, picking out the most powerful dragon bone. Important spine."

"The spine fell, smashing a deep ditch in front of the embankment, and the water flowed never to be seen and overflowed the ground level."

"And the huge dragon suffered heavy injuries, and his body was in a shattered shape. After falling from mid-air, his body turned into a mountain. The scales and blood melted into stars and fell on the mountain. After that, the mountain grew The vegetation is all copper-colored. And the deep ditch made by his bones is the keel stream we are about to go to!"
