Chapter 90 [090] Dragon
Dragon King Festival is one of the most anticipated festivals by the people of Qiantang City, as a representative city that relies on mountains and water.
Most of the income of Qiantang City is related to this Dragon King River, so praying for the Dragon King River to be healthy and the fish to be prosperous is what everyone wants most.
Even though the sky is still raining today, the cold rain can’t stop the enthusiasm of the people of Qiantang City, and the ferry, where the Dragon King Festival is held, is crowded.
Beating gongs and drums, blaring firecrackers, dancing lions and dragons, lighting incense and worshipping the gods, none of them fell.
Ning Xiu was mixed in the crowd, observing all this like a stranger in the corner, and at the same time patrolling the suspicious people in the crowd.
Not only him, all the demon subduing captains in Qiantang City have changed into the clothes of ordinary people, hiding in the crowd and pretending to be ordinary people, pretending to enjoy the celebration of the Dragon King Festival.
But everyone’s eyes are constantly looking around. According to Ning Xiu, the Heitianmen demon and the remnants of the Golden Snake Party are likely to choose to do it today, and what the demon subduing captains have to do is to destroy these action of the guy.
The celebration of the Dragon King Festival mainly has three very important processes. The first one is the celebration ceremony of the people of Qiantang City at this moment. Shangxiang thank the Dragon King for his care and blessing in the past few years.
The second step is to sprinkle offerings into the Dragon King River to make offerings to the Dragon King in the river. The people of Qiantang City will make meat **** made of five kinds of meat prepared in advance, rice wrapped in copper coins, etc. The food that Xiu had never heard of was thrown into the Dragon King River.
The third step was in previous years, such as swimming and dragon boat racing, but this year, in view of the risks of water ghosts and monsters in the Dragon King River, Ning Xiu’s Demon Fuwei asked the city guard to issue a notice. Don’t race dragon boats on the Dragon King River this year to avoid accidental casualties.
The commoners expressed their willingness to cooperate with this, because they had all seen the wreckage of fishing boats that had been attacked by monsters and the corpses of dead fishermen. River game.
“Thanks to the Dragon King for his blessings in the past few years, and I hope that the Dragon King can still protect our Qiantang City this year!”
The old man who prayed to the temple whom Ning Xiu saw in the Dragon King Temple had now put on a temple robe and shouted in the direction of the Dragon King River while standing on the high platform beside the ferry.
At the same time, as soon as he finished speaking, he threw all the meat **** wrapped in bamboo leaves into the river, and the other people below the high platform followed suit.
Soon the river near the ferry was filled with a large number of various bamboo leaves.
“Captain Ning, why hasn’t there been any movement yet, will the Heitianmen demon really do something here?” Captain Jia, dressed as a beggar, secretly came to Ning Xiu with a wooden staff and asked in a low voice.
“Wait a minute, I still can’t see anything.” Ning Xiu reassured.
Since no one knows what the Heitianmen demons want to get, the practice of standing by and waiting has become the only way for them to get in touch with the operation of Heitianmen.
At present, almost half of the people of Qiantang City, all who can walk are located here. If Heitianmen really intends to do something in the Dragon King River, the timing is almost in these few hours.
Boom!
Not long after, a loud bang suddenly sounded from the center of Qiantang City. After everyone heard the movement, they all looked for the sound, and saw a fire rising into the sky in the distance.
At the same time, he carried a large amount of smoke billowing, arching the sky like an umbrella.
“on fire!”
“The whole city guard house is blown up, go and save people.”
“The Dragon King is angry.”
The crowd scrambled in an instant, and they didn’t know who was shouting the information. After hearing the shouting, many people left the ferry and rushed to the direction of Chengshoufu to prepare to put out the fire on the spot.
Ning Xiu couldn’t help frowning as he looked at the huge mushroom cloud rising in the direction of the city guard house. There are explosives in this world, but the level is very low, but it has not reached the level of power that can be achieved.
“Captain Ning, the city guard’s mansion seems to have been bombed. I’ll bring someone over to take a look. Li Jing is more or less a local official of the imperial court, so it’s hard to let him have an accident.” Chief Zheng and Chief Jia rushed over and said to Ning Xiu.
“Okay, then the ferry will be watched by me and Team Leader Qin. You two should go quickly.” Ning Xiu nodded.
As the two team leaders left with their team members, most of the crowded people at the ferry soon left, and some stayed behind to complete the Dragon King Festival enshrining ceremony before leaving.
Anyway, these are the rules left by our ancestors and must be followed.
The old man in the temple looked at the mushroom cloud with a complicated expression. It was obviously a festival dedicated to the Dragon King, but this kind of vision that had never appeared before in Qiantang City really made people feel very complicated.
This is not a good sign.
But as a temple blessing, the old man’s current job is to preside over the Dragon King Festival ceremony. Everyone can leave halfway, but only his identity is not enough.
Stabilizing his mind, the old man picked up the colorful flags on the table on the high platform, raised them and started dancing, ready to do his best to complete the last step of this Dragon King Festival celebration.
Cuckoo!
At this moment, a large number of air bubbles suddenly appeared on the river surface. These air bubbles were only in the center of the river at first, but they soon became more and more, until they spread to the river.
When the old man was waving the colorful flags, a black shadow suddenly burst out of the water and attacked the old man in the temple with lightning speed.
Ning Xiu happened to notice this change, and instantly picked up a harpoon placed by the straw hut at the ferry crossing, and hurriedly threw it towards the old man in the temple.
The harpoon was like an arrow under Ning Xiu’s explosive swing. When the black shadow was about to touch the old man, it accurately inserted into the surface of the black shadow and stabbed directly into it, causing huge injuries.
The black shadow was instantly split into two parts, one part fell on the high platform and trembled with a bang, and the other part retracted back into the Dragon King Hanoi.
Only then did people see clearly that the dark shadow that attacked the old man in the temple was actually an octopus tentacle as thick as an adult waist.
Even after it was split in two by Ning Xiu with a harpoon, the tentacles were still alive and constantly moving when they fell on the high platform, scaring the old man Miaozhu to retreat quickly.
On the other side of the river, several figures wrapped in black robes stood on the bank looking at the water of the Dragon King River and said with a smile: “The day of Lianzhu has arrived, the group of monsters has arrived, and the Dragon King Chaos is estimated to be within a few sticks of incense. ”
“This opportunity is a rare opportunity, and the sect master values it very much. He must capture that thing and bring it back. Please do your best when the time comes, and we will discuss the distribution issue after the event is completed.”
“It’s easy to say. In addition, I have sent people to make a noise in Qiantang City to attract them away from the Demon Commander. In a moment and a half, there will be no more people on the Dragon King River to hinder our actions.”
“So good!”
During the conversation between the few people, the movement on the Dragon King River was getting bigger and bigger. Many schools of fish jumped from the water and kept moving around on the water surface. At the same time, turtles, crabs, shrimps and other water species appeared, making the Dragon King. In an instant, the river became an aquatic market.
The fishermen at the ferry port were all stunned when they saw this scene. They have lived in Qiantang City for two or three generations, but they have never seen such a scene in the Longwang River.
The large amount of fish and shrimp was like a moving copper plate in everyone’s eyes at this time, as long as they were caught in the net, they could be sold for money.
“Dragon King Appears! It’s the Dragon King Appearing!”
“Bless all the fishermen with great wealth and honor in the new year. The Dragon King River has become like this, and we have to send it!”
The fishermen were all shouting excitedly, and they had completely forgotten about the incident that the old man was attacked by octopus just now.
But the sense of crisis in Ning Xiu’s heart is getting bigger and bigger, and there must be a monster when something happens suddenly. The current situation of Longwanghe is no different from the tranquility before the storm. There is definitely something big about to happen!
“Everyone, get out of the ferry now, away from this place!”
Without any hesitation, Ning Xiu quickly ran to the high platform and shouted at all the people of Qiantang City around, trying to drive them away from the place.
But for the rare sight of the Dragon King River in this century, naturally no one could hear him, and they all gathered around the ferry to watch the Dragon King River, with no intention of leaving at all.
The old man in the temple wished to panic and ran to Ning Xiu and asked, “Master Ning, what happened.”
“I don’t know yet, but I’m sure it’s definitely not a good thing. These people will be in danger if they stay here.” Ning Xiu said with a gloomy face.
Qin Zhen took his men to garrison in the crowd. Although they didn’t know what happened, judging from the current chaos, it would definitely not be good.
A sound of thunder exploded over the Longwang River. As the dark clouds began to dense, the sky gradually became darker, and silhouettes of different sizes suddenly jumped out of the water and rushed to the ferry to attack the people of Qiantang City who were watching. .
A turtle with two horns, a fish with two golden whiskers, a snake with claws, a shrimp with scales…
A large number of water monsters rushed into the crowd, and the massacre of the onlookers started immediately. They couldn’t react at all, and they died under the attack of these water monsters in the next breath.
After seeing the tragic death of the people around them, some people hurriedly planned to turn around and flee, but there was always a water demon faster. A snake quickly wrapped around his body and swallowed his entire head directly.
“Ah! Help me!”
“Help! Help!”
In the blink of an eye, the ferry was full of people’s miserable mourning. There were so many water demons breaking out of the Dragon King River that they would never give these people a chance to leave the ferry.
Soon there were corpses all over the ground on the ferry, blood flowing into rivers.
“Damn.” Ning Xiu stood on the high platform and witnessed all this below, and was very angry.
A fish with transparent wings jumped up from the Dragon King River, and opened its mouth with sharp teeth and bit the old man in the temple.
Ning Xiu kicked out immediately upon seeing this, and kicked the fish into two on the spot, breaking it in two in an instant.
【Kill monsters, get general proficiency +50】
“Quick, save people quickly.” Qin Zhen took out his weapon from the place where he had hidden his weapon, and began to lead his team to kill many water demons.
But the situation was not optimistic at all. Standing on the high platform, Ning Xiu could see clearly that hundreds of water demons had come ashore from the Dragon King River, and they were still appearing continuously.
The situation is complicated. If there is no silver tiger to suppress the demons, just relying on these bronze leopards and iron horses, I am afraid that the invasion of these water monsters will not be able to be quelled in a short period of time.
Dragon King River was not a place where monsters often operate in the previous records of Fu Mosi. Ning Xiu couldn’t understand why so many water monsters suddenly appeared today to invade and openly hurt people.
But now is not the time to think about these things. The most important thing is to save the lives of some people to prevent them from being harmed by monsters.
Ning Xiu immediately jumped down from the high platform. At this moment, the overlord hidden in the crowd violently threw the Thunder Hammer.
was picked up by Ning Xiu in midair, and then he held the handle of the hammer with both hands, smashing it violently against the ground like a meteor.
Boom!
When the Thunder Hammer was smashed to the ground by Ning Xiu, the Dengfeng Five-layer Strength erupted, causing the entire ferry ground to vibrate and roar violently.
The ground cracked and rubble flew.
The water monsters close to Ning Xiu were all crushed to pieces by the hammer on the spot, and there was no room for parry.
【Kill monsters, get general proficiency +20】
【Kill monsters, get general proficiency +120】
【Kill monsters, get general proficiency +200】
【Kill monsters, get general proficiency +80】
“Go quickly.” Ning Xiu shouted again to the surrounding people.
This time, they were willing to listen to Ning Xiu’s words, and they all turned around and ran away, not daring to stop at this time.
Boom!
The thunder on the Dragon King River intensified, and even purple lightning flashed in the dark clouds, rendering this section of the Dragon King River extremely depressed, as if something extremely dangerous was about to be born.
The old man who was still standing on the high platform looked at the Dragon King River with a very surprised expression. At this time, there was a blue and purple light and shadow under the river, which was several feet long.
The swimming speed of this light and shadow is quite fast, and around the light and shadow, there are also a large number of fish schools, making it impossible to see what the light and shadow are.
“Master Ning!” The old man Miaozhu walked to the edge of the high platform and shouted to the bottom.
But at this time, the ferry was noisy, and Ning Xiu could hear clearly what he was shouting, so there was no way to spread this important discovery.
Across the river.
When they saw that blue-violet light and shadow appeared under the river surface, several Heitianmen demons who had been waiting on the bank for a long time let out deep laughter.
“It’s finally here.”
“On the day of the five-star streak, the spiritual energy is the strongest here, and with the blessing of Yuehua, this thing will definitely come. Fortunately, I ordered someone to intercept the letter sent by the dispatcher from Jingzhou in advance, which made Qiantang City neglect today’s five-star The connection between Renju and the Dragon King River.”
“Then this thing, it seems that we are settled.”
“Stop talking, do it, and stop it quickly.”
A man in black robe immediately took out a black wooden walking stick and stuck it on the ground. As he muttered the formula, the grass and trees on the shore began to pour and grow towards the Dragon King River as if they had become wise.
In less than ten breaths, the wooden wall formed by the growth of many trees has already crossed the Dragon King River, just blocking the road of the blue-violet light and shadow.
When the wooden wall was formed, all the people in black robes jumped on the wooden wall and ran towards the center of the river.
The way forward was blocked, and the blue-violet light and shadow suddenly began to float on the water, causing a lot of waves and waves.
The schools of fish that were originally moving around this light and shadow began to evacuate one after another, and they seemed to sense that the crisis was coming.
Roar!
Ning Xiu, who was eradicating the water demon, suddenly heard a dragon roar coming from the direction of the Dragon King River. When he looked back, he saw a dark blue dragon just burst out from under the Dragon King River and roared at the sky.
