My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 349 Underground Dragon Corpse
Jiang Xinghuo frowned slightly. Anyone who has a little knowledge of history knows that although Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty had sons, none of them lived past the age of three.

The eldest son died at birth, and the emperor had to adopt a member of the royal family, who later became Emperor Yingzong.

According to the records on this stone tablet, the person buried in this coffin is the eldest son of the emperor, Zhao Fang, who unfortunately died at birth.

But the key point is that the remains that Jiang Xinghuo saw in the coffin were clearly the skeleton of an adult male, which had nothing to do with premature death.

Jiang Xinghuo's eyes flickered slightly, and his right hand brushed across the stone tablet. A golden thunder talisman appeared in his palm for a moment, and then disappeared in an instant.

When I looked at the stone tablet again, the moss covering it had been cleared away, revealing the subsequent inscriptions that had been hidden.

Jiang Xinghuo continued to look down and extracted the information he needed from the inscription in ancient classical Chinese.

At the same time, he also learned a story from it, a bizarre story that did not exist in history.

According to the inscription, the eldest prince Zhao Fang did not die young, but was handed over to Zhang Tianshi by Emperor Renzong on the night of his birth.

Emperor Renzong ordered Zhang Tianshi to use the method of changing the fetus of a dragon, hoping to help the eldest prince break free from the shackles of human body and become the one and only son of a dragon in the world, possessing power over all living beings.

In order to fulfill the wish of Emperor Renzong, Zhang Tianshi traveled all over the country and finally found a dragon suitable for performing the tire-changing technique in the dragon's nest under this ancient well.

In order to perform the dragon-switching technique, one must first find a female dragon that is six months pregnant but has not yet given birth. Then, one must take out the embryo and eggs in its belly, and then put a human baby into it to replace the pregnancy process.

In this way, the baby will be tempered by the mother's qi and blood, all the bones in the body will be crushed, and then supplemented with various precious medicinal materials, the old bones will be replaced by new bones, and completely transformed into the bones of a dragon, possessing all kinds of incredible powers.

However, since this kind of magic is against the harmony of nature and goes against the will of heaven, it will surely be punished by heaven.

Coupled with the strong resentment left by the mother dragon, it had a serious impact on the dragon cub.

Not only was he brutal and cruel, but he was also bloodthirsty and crazy, and countless innocent people died at his hands.

In order to avoid bringing disaster to the people of the world, Emperor Renzong had to reluctantly let Zhang Tianshi kill the eldest son.

Of course, this is just the record on the stele, which highlights the noble character of Emperor Renzong. The specific reasons are definitely more than that.

But Jiang Xinghuo didn't know why. After all, thousands of years had passed, and a lot of history had been tampered with beyond recognition.

Moreover, this was a supernatural matter related to the royal family and it was impossible to record it openly in history books.

While Jiang Xinghuo was pondering these things in his mind, he looked at the ancient stone tablet and thought that this thing was an antique and it would be a bit of a waste to keep it here. Why not just carry it back?

But on second thought, there is no point in taking it back, and it just takes up space, so it might as well leave it here and give it to those archaeological experts later, to stimulate their worldview at the same time.

Jiang Xinghuo walked onto the stone platform, closed the coffin lid again, and put the coffin nails back in place. The gold, silver and treasures buried with the deceased were not moved at all.

He wasn't here to rob a tomb, and there was nothing he could use, so there was no need to get himself into unnecessary trouble just for a few burial objects.

"What a pity..." Jiang Xinghuo took out the Dragon Detecting Sutra from his magic bag. Now he had confirmed his previous guess.

This volume of the Dragon Detection Manual is actually equivalent to a radar satellite, which can automatically search and lock onto places where dragons once lived.

The gray dot probably means that the dragon is dead or no longer in that place.

Jiang Xinghuo looked around the cave and found nothing else. But just when he was about to leave, he found that the gray spot on the Dragon Exploration Scripture suddenly turned blood red! !

The blood-red light is particularly dazzling in the darkness!
Ok?
What does it mean?
Jiang Xinghuo was stunned at first, but reacted quickly. He suddenly retracted the Dragon Exploration Sutra. Suddenly, wind and thunder surged around him. The two evil figures of the Silver Mother and the Dragon were looming in the thunder and lightning.

Jiang Xinghuo had a serious expression on his face, looking around vigilantly. The dark cave was completely dark, but the space was not very large and could be seen at a glance. It did not seem like there was any hidden space like a secret room.

unless……

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the cave, and finally fixed his eyes on the coffin. He walked over and kicked it, and the heavy coffin moved more than two meters away along the ground.

A large, pitch-black hole appeared on the stone platform.

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the big hole on the ground, pondered for a while, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the game, walked around the niche shop, and bought an oil-sealed lamp for 500 incense sticks.

"Oil-sealed lamp (common item), an oil lamp made from lamp oil ghosts. The darker the place, the brighter the light it emits."

Jiang Xinghuo held the oil-sealed lamp in his hand and squatted down to check the situation in the cave. He could vaguely see a huge monster with ferocious scales and armor, lying motionless in the cave.

"A dragon...?"

Seeing the huge monster with ferocious scales, Jiang Xinghuo's heart moved slightly, as if he had thought of something.

But just as he was thinking about this, a dull roar suddenly sounded in the cave, like a bull or thunder, before Jiang Xinghuo could react.

Buzz! A chilly wind suddenly rises! !
Jiang Xinghuo only felt a blackness before his eyes, and the oil-sealed lamp in his hand went out instantly. He only heard the wail of an oil ghost, and the entire oil lamp turned into ashes and dissipated.

At this moment, it seemed as if all the evil and filthy things in the world, all the dirty and evil things in the world gathered together, and rushed towards Jiang Xinghuo like a landslide and tsunami.

Facing the evil spirit swept by the violent storm, Jiang Xinghuo's eyes condensed, a hint of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes, and peach blossom lightning patterns bloomed! !
The Thunder Ancestor's precious scroll flashed in front of his eyebrows, and countless purple-gold divine thunders spread madly around with Jiang Xinghuo as the center, instantly dividing the dark sky and earth, as if to completely destroy the entire cave.

At the same time, the main acupoints of the Ren and Du meridians also flashed with divine light, and two evil spirits, the Silver Mother Swallowing Dragon, roared out, looming in the wind and thunder, opening their bloody mouths as if they wanted to swallow everything.

The two extremely powerful forces collided in an instant, and the ground in the cave collapsed and cracked. The entire Wujing County was affected by this force, and countless people fled their homes in panic while they were sleeping.

The stone tower that suppressed the ancient well was the first to be hit. A hideous crack extended from the bottom of the tower to the top, and it could collapse completely at any time.

This horrifying scene lasted for about five minutes, until the evil and filthy air dissipated and the cave returned to peace.
