Liaozhai Great Sage

The implication is that you should be serious and put away your thoughts, otherwise you will be ready to continue to be trapped here.

"Sir, please tell me, please tell me, Benlong promises to know everything, and there is nothing in this capital that I don't know." The real dragon said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "What is your origin? All the real dragons in the world have their origins. It is impossible to add a real dragon for no reason. With your ability, at least you are the dragon king in a certain big river, the water god in a certain big lake, mixed This is the first time in my life I have seen such a poor dragon."

When asked about his history, this real dragon raised his eyelids slightly, looked at the lake, showing a look of nostalgia: "This dragon was once a carefree dragon that roamed the sky. The sun was shining brightly that day. The clouds are thick, it is a good day when the clouds are riding the fog, Ben Long seems to be able to smell the fragrance of flowers floating between the mountains and rivers that day, and feel the cool breeze above the mountains..."

"Okay, let's go to the second question. Do you know the reason for the fire in the capital today?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

"This dragon hasn't finished the first question yet." The real dragon said in surprise.

"Needless to say, let's talk about it next time when we have time." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Oh, that's fine, next time I will have a good memory and talk about it in detail." The real dragon said: "Today's capital city is on fire, um...it was made by me."

"That's it, then go to die." Li Xiuyuan pulled out the Tai'a sword from his waist, ready to cut off the dragon's head.

"Wait, wait, although this matter is caused by this dragon, it has nothing to do with this dragon." Seeing the golden energy above the sword, the real dragon hurriedly said in fright. They all retracted into the mud pit like loach.

Li Xiuyuan said: "The reason?"

"It's a long story, and it starts with Benlong becoming the Dragon of the Song Dynasty to protect the country. It was a dark and windy night, and the autumn was crisp and clear. Benlong came back from his relatives' house in Beihai happily, because After drinking some wine, I became a little dizzy, and I accidentally flew off the road, and I accidentally flew over the capital..." Zhenlong narrowed his eyes, as if recalling the high-spirited days of his youth.

"The Dragon of Protecting the Nation? To make a long story short." Li Xiuyuan's expression froze, with a strange look on his face.

He knew that in all dynasties, if a court wanted long-term peace and stability, it had to have a real dragon descend to the earth to suppress the country's destiny and ensure its prosperity and continuity. Therefore, the emperors of all dynasties would have such auspicious things as the real dragon entering the dream and the real dragon appearing.

That was not a lie, nor was it a lie fabricated by the emperor to prove that he was justified in seizing Jiang Shanshun, but that there was indeed a real dragon coming down to earth.

The dragon who protects the country of the Han Dynasty is the red-bearded dragon.

And the Dragon of Protecting the Country of the Great Song Kingdom is actually the dragon that was crushed at the bottom of the lake in front of him?

The Dragon of Protecting the Country has been suppressed. No wonder the Great Song Dynasty is in such chaos. There are bandits inside and powerful enemies outside.

It turned out that the whole dynasty was unlucky.

"The dragon is a long story short. The dragon is the dragon of the Song Dynasty to protect the country and suppress the national destiny. Because the Song Dynasty was born in response to the virtue of fire, the dragon is naturally a red dragon, but you have also seen that the dragon was suppressed. Here, the capital has a surplus of fire virtues that have accumulated into disasters, and fires have come out in response to the situation to consume the excess fire virtues, so the capital is often on fire, not once in the capital."

"This time, I didn't expect the fire to be so prosperous. It must be that there is a ghost in the dark. If I am not trapped, this kind of fire will not happen. The fire spirit is just what I need to nourish my cultivation. Ah, if you had let this dragon out earlier, this fire would have calmed down in an instant." The real dragon said.

"Huode, fire?" Li Xiuyuan frowned.

If analyzed in this way, it really has almost the same meaning as what the national teacher said. This is God's will, not a man-made disaster.

It is the imbalance of the five elements, the excess of fire virtue, and a disaster brewing. It is no wonder that Guo Zhen's begging for rain will fail.

"You are the dragon who protects the country, the real dragon descends to earth, who dares to suppress you?" Li Xiuyuan said.

The real dragon said: "I don't know, the dragon just took a nap and was imprisoned at the bottom of the lake. He was tied up with a dragon rope, and he was pressing down a treasure temple, which enshrined a Buddha Lord Tathagata. Borrowing the power of Wanmin's incense and fire, I suppressed this dragon here and couldn't move. Besides, soaking in this icy lake also prevented this dragon from absorbing the energy of fire virtue. If he can't move forward, he will retreat, otherwise he will be mere A treasure temple can't suppress Benlong."

"In a few years, it is not impossible to be trapped here to death."

"You are really a confused dragon." Li Xiuyuan's face darkened: "Such vigilance deserves to be suppressed here."

"As a dragon protecting the country, this dragon is a respectable person. How could he think of a lunatic attacking this dragon." The real dragon argued, his voice was very aggrieved.

"A decent person? He was thinking of eating me before. This is not something a decent person should do."

"There is resentment in my heart, and I can't help but vent it." Zhenlong said confidently.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Then have you ever eaten a human being?"

"Who would send it to Benlong's mouth?"

The real dragon said that he tried to shake the dragon's body, but he could only move around the lake tower, and he couldn't make much movement. It can be seen that cannibalism is also a luxury.

"The last question. There are ghosts and gods in the fire. Those ghosts and gods are all wearing red robes and official hats. They can direct the fire. What's the reason?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

Zhenlong said: "Benlong remembers that the official uniforms of the officials of the Song Dynasty are red. Are the official robes and hats of ghosts and gods the same as those of the officials of the Song Dynasty?"

"Indeed..." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Those are not ghosts and gods, they are spiritual officials bred to correspond to those officials. It's just that those officials wear scarlet official uniforms, which correspond to fire virtue. Because they are greedy for money and sex, and have too many evil thoughts, the bred spiritual officials also do evil things. Seeing the fire spread, instead of putting out the fire, it spread the fire. If those officials had kind thoughts and were upright, the spiritual officials bred would also be upright and noble. will not expand."

"That's right." Li Xiuyuan bowed his head and pondered.

Chapter 7 and five

"I already know what I should know. Thank you for your clarification. It's not too early now, so I won't disturb your rest. Let me leave."

Li Xiuyuan didn't choose to stay at the bottom of the lake for a long time, and turned around and left immediately after asking the question.

The real dragon at the bottom of the lake was anxious; "Are you leaving now? Didn't you say you want to help me out of trouble?"

"Help you out of trouble? Well, did I say this? Yangzijiang King, you are watching from the sidelines, did you hear what I just said to help this dragon out of trouble?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"Not really." Yang Zijiang said kingly.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Look, I didn't open my mouth to promise, so let's discuss the matter of getting out of trouble next time. You dragon has resentment in your heart. If you let it out rashly, it will cause great harm if no one restrains you. , After all, you are no longer a dragon, you have fallen into the mortal world, stained with vulgarity, and your resentment is flat, who knows what you will do after you come out."

"It's not fair. I have answered the doubts in your heart for you. It is simply too unrighteous for you to leave like this. You are still a cultivator. Don't you have the virtues that a cultivator should have?" Zhenlong said hurriedly.

"There seems to be some truth in what you said, but if you wanted to eat me before, this matter should be considered even. What do you think?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"..."

Li Xiuyuan waved his hand, and drifted away along the passage at the bottom of the lake: "Don't worry too much, you will naturally get out of trouble when you should get out of trouble, and I will naturally consider letting you out after I have dealt with my secular world, anyway, you It has been suppressed for so long, it doesn't matter if it lasts longer."

He's not going to let the dragon out now.

Because he felt that the involvement must be huge, otherwise how could a dragon protecting the country be artificially suppressed at the bottom of the lake.

When he left Longyin Lake, he had already seen that most of the fire in the south of the city had been extinguished, only puffs of thick smoke came out, and the fire was no longer visible.

The heavy rain continued to pour down, and the fire was barely quelled.

"Let's go back. The capital city is really chaotic. It looks prosperous, but it's actually full of dangers." Li Xiuyuan walked by the lake, looking at the distance and couldn't help feeling emotional.

"Ok?"

Suddenly.

His eyes moved slightly, as if he had noticed something, and looked at an attic somewhere in the heavy rain.

But the place he looked at was empty.

"Is it an illusion?"
