Jie teaches the Immortal Sweeping Heaven’s Cultivation of All Heavens

Chapter 1135 Idle People of the Song Dynasty 54
The elder scholar was originally jealous of the scholar because he was better at studying than him and was able to pass the examination to become a scholar, and even had the hope of passing the examination to become a juren.

The eldest brother, the scholar, is the true scholar.

Therefore, the scholar's elder brother took advantage of the death of his parents to separate from the scholar's family, leaving his younger brother with a property that was not enough to support his studies.

But I didn't expect that the scholar chose to go out to sea with others.

What was even more unexpected was that he thought the scholar would die at sea, but not only did the scholar not die, he also found himself a wife from a wealthy family.

The jealous look on the scholar's face made everyone who saw it shake their heads and stay away from him.

I thought to myself that I shouldn’t make close friends with people like this.

Liu Shu and the other two followed the Dragon King of the East China Sea and sat at the table with the bride's relatives.

In order not to scare mortals, the Dragon King of the East Sea has changed his dragon head into a human head.

But he is a handsome middle-aged uncle.

Other aquatic creatures also look like humans, and each one is very beautiful.

Liu Shu saw the groom. Although he was not as handsome as the dragon clan members, he had regular features and a scholarly temperament, which was quite good.

No wonder he can attract the love of the Dragon Girl.

The three of them drank the wedding wine and gave gifts.

Afterwards, the three of them were invited by the Dragon King of the East China Sea to go to his Dragon Palace together and stayed there for two days.

After getting ashore, the three of them walked upstream along the Yellow River.

During this time, the three saw the Yellow River burst its banks and they immediately took action.

One person blocked the dam, and two people rescued people.

Liu Shu used magic to transport a large stone and blocked the breach, stopping the water from flowing out.

The people's lives and fields were saved.

As a result, the three people gained a lot of merit.

One day, the three of them came to a county town and found that many people in the county were worshipping Bao Gong's longevity tablet.

The three were surprised and asked people about it. It turned out that people in the county told them about Bao Gong's deeds.

It turns out that Mr. Bao once served as a county magistrate in this county and did many things for the people.

The people were very grateful to Mr. Bao.

In the teahouse, Liu Shu and the other two were drinking tea while listening to the storyteller telling stories.

The protagonist of the story is naturally Mr. Bao.

Storyteller: "Everyone, there is a well in a village 20 miles from our county town, called Bao Gong Well. Do you know why?"

Everyone in the audience: "Of course it has something to do with Mr. Bao. It must be Mr. Bao who ordered the well to be dug."

Storyteller: "You only know one side of the story. Today, I will tell you the story of how Lord Bao fought a dragon with wisdom."

Storyteller: "More than a decade ago, a dragon appeared in the river outside our city. The dragon acted recklessly and destroyed things wantonly, making the people miserable. After Lord Bao learned about this, he decided to get rid of the dragon. But the dragon was so powerful that ordinary people were no match for it, so Lord Bao could only outsmart it."

"Mr. Bao then had a deep well dug and a huge stone well cover prepared. Then Mr. Bao summoned the dragon and coaxed it with words, saying that he would report the dragon as a good omen to the emperor, who would confer the title of divine beast on the dragon..."

"The dragon was very moved and followed Mr. Bao's advice, demonstrating his ability to grow or shrink."

"The dragon shrank as Master Bao said and flew into the deep well."

"Mr. Bao immediately ordered people to cover the well. There was a loud bang and the dragon was trapped in the well. When the dragon found out, it was too late."

"Mr. Bao also ordered people to build a 13-story stone tower on the manhole cover to suppress the dragon forever, so that it can no longer come out to harm the world..." Bai Yutang asked Liu Shu and Guan Ruoxu in a low voice: "Is what this old man said true? Why does it feel a little weird?"

Isn’t the dragon in the story too stupid?

In the past, Bai Yuting would not have believed such a story.

But after seeing many demons, ghosts and gods, and considering that he was on the path to becoming an immortal himself, Bai Yuting had to change his perspective on many so-called legends.

Maybe, the stories are all true?!
Mr. Bao is the reincarnation of the star god in the sky and the destined King of Hell. Isn't it normal for him to suppress a dragon?
Liu Shu: "It's a fabrication. If there really is a dragon causing trouble, the dragon clan will be the first to come forward to deal with it, and there is no need for Lord Bao to come forward. However, there should be a deep well and a stone tower there. We can go and take a look."

The three men paid the bill and came to Bao Gong's Well according to the address given by the storyteller.

Bao Gong Well is indeed related to Mr. Bao.

According to local elders, the county was hit by a drought that year. In order to alleviate the people's water shortage problem, Bao Gong paid for it himself and hired people to dig several deep wells in the county.

This deep well was the one that produced the most water when it was dug.

With this deep well, the people nearby survived the drought.

Therefore, this well is called Bao Gong Well, and the stone tower beside the well is a longevity tower built by the people to enshrine Mr. Bao.

The legend of Mr. Bao's battle of wits with the dragon was made up by humans, but later it replaced the original origin of the well, so that the children in the village all believed that there was a dragon suppressed in the well.

The stone tower had no suppressive effect, but Liu Shu discovered that there was indeed something at the bottom of the well.

He motioned Guan Ruoxu to look down into the well.

Guan Ruxu looked at it and said: "There is a carp inside, a golden carp."

Silver carp are common, but golden carp are rare.

Liu Shu: "It's not an ordinary carp. It has dragon blood. If it evolves, it can really become a dragon."

Bai Yutang: "Doesn't that fit the legend?"

Yanagi: "Perhaps he came here just for the legend."

Bai Yutang: “???”

"People's wishes and beliefs can give birth to gods. People here are telling the story of Lord Bao and the dragon. The Bao Gong Well has also gradually bred dragon energy as people think of it. Perhaps after more than a thousand years, a dragon will really be born in the well."

"This carp spirit must have come here for the dragon energy, hoping to use the dragon energy to transform into a dragon." Liu Shu said, "This is a smart carp."

Bai Yutang: "Then I wish it to successfully evolve into a dragon."

The golden carp in the well heard what the three people said, floated to the surface, nodded at them to express its gratitude, and then sank back to the bottom of the well.

Yanagi: "This carp is pregnant."

The other two: “Huh?”

Liu Shu: "The blood of the child in her belly is not ordinary, and the fate should also be precious. This is why the golden carp can't even maintain its human form and returns to its original form."

Bai Yutang: "Could it be the descendants of the dragon clan or gods?"

Liu Shu shook his head: "It's human blood. The child in the carp's belly is a human-demon hybrid."

Guan Ruoxu was shocked: "Is it trying to save its life? If a goblin gets pregnant with a human child, it will cause great harm to its body."

If the child is born, the mother may lose her life.

The reason why Guan Ruoxu's old friend, the old demon, died so early was because of giving birth to a child.

Otherwise, even if she became a human and her life span was shortened, she could still live five more years.
