This is not the Datang I am familiar with

Chapter 602 Yellow River Dragon King

Ever since Dingyu asked Xiaolan to carry the Tang Dao that night, now this girl Yanran has become the person who specially carries the Tang Dao for Chen Fang. No matter where she goes, this girl will take the Tang Dao with her.

At this time, seeing the empress running to the river bank, the son-in-law also chased after her, and the Yellow River course was extremely dangerous at this time, so Xiaolan instinctively wanted to give the knife to the son-in-law.

Wu Meiniang had already run to the river bank, staring at the white deer in the river, Taiping on the white deer's back.

But at this time, in the river channel, more than a dozen bloody mouths protruded from the Yellow River, looking like they wanted to tear the white deer and the Taiping Xiaobai on the deer's back to shreds.

Xiaolan had already chased after her, and the guarding cavalry also rushed to the river bank. Xiaolan handed the knife to Chen Fang, and Chen Fang drew it out.

At this moment, a wave suddenly jumped up from the bank of the river, and in the wave a mouth full of blood was swallowed towards Wu Meiniang.

The bloody mouth was extremely huge, with dense fangs in the huge mouth, and the dagger-like inverted teeth were slender and sharp, like a handle of daggers, and there was a cold light at this time.

When this huge mouth appeared, it swallowed Wu Meiniang who was the first to reach the river bank.

"My lady, be careful!"

At this moment in a hurry, Chen Fang didn't care about the gazes of hundreds of people on the bank, so he wrapped Wu Meiniang's waist and hugged Wu Meiniang behind her.

With the other hand holding the Tang knife, he stabbed towards the giant mouth that was rushing.

For this stab, Chen Fang exerted all his strength, and the Qi in his body poured into the blade at the first time, and he didn't care whether the Qi was useful or not.

At the close of life and death, one gamble with all one's strength, there is no way to leave any strength at this time.

The Qi in the body was completely poured into the blade, and the blade of the Tang Dao in his hand was instantly glowing with a white light, and at the tip of the blade, an inch or so of light suddenly appeared, piercing into the huge mouth.

In an instant, Tang Dao's blade was completely pierced into the huge mouth, and even Chen Fang's entire arm was inserted into the bloody mouth.

The bloody fangs were tightly attached to Chen Fang's arm at this moment, and the sharp point pierced Chen Fang's arm, and there was a real touch.

At this time, the bloody mouth trembled for a while, and the giant mouth that rushed up to the river bank suddenly stopped moving, and fell to the bank of the Yellow River.

The dozen or so phoenix guards closest to Chen Fang were holding crossbows, and the arrows on the crossbows were facing the monster that fell on the shore.

It wasn't until this moment that everyone could clearly see what the monster looked like.

This monster is more than two meters long, with a big head and a small body, like a mutated big-headed fish.It looks like a fish, but there are two short tentacles in the original position of the belly of the fish.

The whole body of this strange fish is black, and the scales on its body glow coldly, as if it were made of metal.

At this moment, Chen Fang had already drawn out the Tang saber, the monster choked a few times, Feng Wei next to him thought the monster was alive and was going to do evil, the crossbow string in his hand was loose, and a crossbow arrow shot at the monster fish at close range, it was very frightening An absolutely unexpected scene appeared.

At such a close distance, the armor-piercing crossbow fired by the armor-piercing crossbow was actually bounced off by the scales on the strange fish.

These fish scales have a terrifying defensive ability, even the Mingguang armor of the Tang Dynasty will definitely not be able to block such a close-range armor-piercing crossbow.

And this fish scale completely blocked it, and even when everyone looked at it, they couldn't see any traces on the fish scale.

terror!

"Guard the empress and leave the river bank. The strange fish in this river are too dangerous."

All the cavalry rushed to guard Wu Meiniang, while a group of phoenix guards lined up on the river bank, all holding armor-piercing crossbows in their hands, staring at the river.

At this time, in the river, more than a dozen masters have approached the white deer. The white deer is carrying Taiping and Xiaobai on their backs, and is trying to avoid the strange fish in the river. Floes, and there are too many strange fish, dozens of them at this time, no matter which one of the strange fish hurts the white deer, the white deer and the person and fox on the back of the deer have no possibility of surviving.

With a swaying shadow, Dingyu was the first to reach the white deer, lightly tapped on a piece of ice floe, and a red glow in his hand shot at the strange fish closest to the white deer at high speed.

Chen Fang knew the destructive power of Dingyu's Red Sleeve Knife best. It was a magical weapon that could easily cut through metal.

But even the Red Sleeve Knife just pierced a string of sparks on the strange fish at this time, and did not hurt the strange fish at all.

"Dingyu, don't get entangled with the strange fish in the river, their weakness is only the throat in the giant mouth, bring your highness back!"

Chen Fang yelled at the river, Dingyu also saw the terrifying defensive power of this strange fish, how could he get entangled with this strange fish.

More than a dozen people here are all masters, at this time Dingyu was the first to arrive beside Bailu, and hugged Taiping, and Feng Yi had also come over there, hugging Xiaobai on Bailu's back.

The white deer lost all weight at this time, the deer stepped on a piece of broken ice, jumped several feet in an instant, and then jumped all the way to the bank of the Yellow River with the aid of a few pieces of river ice floes.

Without the heavy-loaded white deer, the speed is really terrifying.The hard struggle in the river just now was mostly due to carrying Taiping and Xiaobai on their backs.

Bailu jumped to the bank first, followed by Dingyu and Fengyi.

Behind him, the people from Chengtian Temple and the eunuch guarding the heir also went ashore, standing guard on the shore with knives and guns.

"Retreat back and bring that strange fish with you!"

Several phoenix guards dragged the strange fish, but the strange fish was extremely heavy, as if it was made of iron.

"My lord, this strange fish is too heavy!"

"Take apart the wagon and make a sledge out of the spear and the side of the wagon."

At this time, more than a dozen long spears and the wall of the carriage made a sled, and dragged the strange fish onto the simple sled. The horses that originally pulled the carriage pulled the sled at this time, using the snow to reduce friction, and drove towards Luoyang City.

At this time Taiping was still in shock, he was terrified in the river just now, now he threw himself into the arms of his mother, Wu Meiniang hugged him, and he recovered a little.

"Your Majesty, let's go back to the city as soon as possible. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time."

Wu Meiniang hugged Taiping, and everyone protected her and drove to Luoyang City.

It wasn't until they entered Luoyang Palace that everyone dared to breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the little princess was fine today, and the strange fish that washed up on the river bank did not hurt the empress, otherwise none of the guards here today would have been involved.

After returning to Luoyang Palace, Chen Fang ordered the guards to find the local officials in Luoyang, and asked the old fisherman on the bank of the Yellow River to send him to Luoyang Palace.

The guards were ordered to leave, and Chen Fang rushed to Wu Meiniang's side at the first time. At this time, the empress was holding the little Highness who was still in shock, and burst into tears of distress.

It was rare for Chen Fang to cry when seeing Wu Meiniang, but today Taiping was almost buried in the belly of a fish, even the empress of the Tang Dynasty, the future empress could not help crying.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness is fine now, Your Majesty, don't be too sad, it hurts the phoenix's body."

"Thanks to the son-in-law today, you saved this palace and Taiping again."

"It's my duty to protect my mother well. Just now, I sent guards and asked the local officials in Luoyang to find an old fisherman on the bank of the Yellow River. The identity of this strange fish should be determined soon."

Chapter 603 Yellow River Dragon King

Wu Meiniang nodded, still hugging Taiping tightly, Taiping stopped crying now, but she was still quite frightened.

At this time, being hugged tightly by the queen mother, Wu Meiniang patted the little girl on the back, and the little girl was better. Seeing Chen Fang, Taiping broke free from the arms of the queen mother, and threw herself into Chen Fang's arms. Chen Fang held Taiping until Luoyang. Local officials led a dozen old fishermen into Luoyang Palace.

Originally, Chen Fang wanted to let go of Taiping, but at this time the little girl would not let go, Chen Fang could only hug her tightly, and then led Wu Meiniang to the dozen or so old fishermen.When the dozen or so old fishermen saw the queen, they all knelt down and shouted for a thousand years.

"Pingshen, I asked you to come here today to recognize a monster that haunts the Yellow River."

At this time, the dozen or so old fishermen got up, followed the queen with the local Luoyang officials, and came to a square in the palace.

At this time, there is a simple sled, and a strange fish is lying on it. The strange fish is more than two meters long. The only part of the fish that is not covered by scales.

At this time, the pair of short and thin tentacles drooped, which was extremely incongruous with the body of the monster fish covered with thick scales.

Those dozen or so old fishermen just got close to this strange fish, and some of them immediately changed their expressions.

"Iron-headed tiger! The Dragon King of the Yellow River, who killed the Dragon King of the Yellow River?"

An old fisherman couldn't help it, and couldn't help shouting, and then his legs softened, and he knelt directly in front of the simple sled.

Chen Fang's face changed slightly. Looking at the dozen or so old fishermen, they obviously knew this strange fish, but what happened to the name "Dragon King of the Yellow River".

"Don't talk nonsense, this is just a strange fish in the Yellow River, what kind of Dragon King of the Yellow River!"

At this time, the Luoyang official behind him heard the old fisherman's words and reprimanded him severely, fearing that the old fisherman would be ignorant and offend the empress.

"What the hell is this thing?"

"Back to the son-in-law, I know a thing or two about this humble job. A few years ago, after the severe winter of the Yellow River, when the river surface thawed, this strange fish would appear occasionally. In the past, this strange fish always attacked the fishing boats in the river. Feed fresh fish in the river, and this strange fish will not take the initiative to attack fishing boats."

"After a long time, most of the local fishermen will feed fresh fish when they see it, and they also call this strange fish the Dragon King of the Yellow River. There are also rumors that this strange fish was sent by the Dragon King. Whoever does evil things, This strange fish will attack anyone, if it does too much evil, the Dragon Lord will not let the weather in Luoyang be smooth."

After hearing this, Chen Fang felt that most of these were superstitions, but this is the feudal era, and superstitions are normal.

Don't later generations often talk about feudal superstition, overthrow feudal superstition, and believe in science?

It was the feudal era at this time, and people's understanding of nature was very shallow at this time, and many things they did not understand, naturally derived many myths and legends.

In this era, superstition is sometimes used by the ruling class as a tool of rule.Science is not popular in this era, and superstition is overthrown.

"Where did the name Iron Headed Tiger come from?"

"Returning to the son-in-law, this matter is still in the previous dynasty. At that time, Emperor Yang moved his capital to Luoyang. In that year, there were a lot of strange fish in the river. Emperor Yang sent troops to kill this strange fish, but the fish scales It was so hard that even the armor-piercing crossbow used for armor-piercing could not penetrate it, but the troops who went to kill it enraged this strange fish. At that time, dozens of ships in the Yellow River channel were bitten to pieces by this strange fish. Bitten and devoured by this strange fish, no one survived. Emperor Yang named this strange fish an iron-headed tiger."

"At that time, the tragedy in the Luoyang section of the Yellow River was so terrible that the water in the Yellow River was dyed red. And after that year, there was no rain in Luoyang area for three years, and the title of Dragon King of the Yellow River was also called from then on. .”

After hearing this, Chen Fang felt that the area around the Yellow River hadn't seen any rain for three years, and it was just a coincidence that Emperor Yang ordered people to kill the Dragon King of the Yellow River. fall thing.

Chen Fang didn't really believe in these things. Of course, after going through time travel, Chen Fang naturally didn't completely believe in science.

If everything is explained by science, how can the soul travel be explained.

"Why didn't anyone mention this matter when Empress Sheng drove to Luoyang, as a reminder?"

"Back to the son-in-law, since the establishment of this dynasty, it has been nearly ten years. This strange fish has not appeared in the Yellow River. Many people have forgotten the existence of this strange fish. The old fisherman kept this matter secret, so no one Remind the empress, this is our negligence, please punish the son-in-law."

"Forget it, I don't blame you for this matter, well, let's all go down!"

"I dare to ask, how did this strange fish appear in Luoyang Palace? Who killed it?"

"I killed it!"

"My son-in-law is mighty, my son-in-law is really the number one god of war in the Tang Dynasty!"

In front of Chen Fang, all Luoyang officials knelt on the ground and shouted "God of War". Chen Fang really wanted to kick each of them hard.

God of War, your sister's God of War, the young master was just lucky, a Tang knife was directly inserted into the throat of this strange fish, otherwise he would have killed this strange fish.

As for the scales on this strange fish that even the Dingyu Hongxiu knife can't cut through, Chen Fang guessed that he couldn't cut the fish carcass with the Tang knife at this time.

Here is a group of officials in Luoyang shouting "God of War", while those old fishermen over there are looking at Chen Fang with horror in their eyes.

After slaughtering the Dragon King of the Yellow River, Luoyang will suffer another catastrophe.

Chen Fang naturally saw the expressions of these old fishermen, and also understood that these people had experienced the drought for three years, and they were all afraid when they saw the iron-headed tiger being killed.

"Okay, you don't need to panic. There will be no disasters in Luoyang area. Even if there is, the benevolence of the current prince will allow the people around Luoyang to survive the disaster year smoothly. Let's all go down!"

All the officials and fishermen retreated. At this time, the matter of the iron-headed tiger and the Dragon King of the Yellow River has come to an end.Since the origin of this thing is already known, there is no mystery.

At this time, Taiping was still in Chen Fang's arms, and the little girl was unwilling to leave Chen Fang's arms at this moment.

Chen Fang hugged Taiping, until the afternoon, the girl's mood stabilized a lot, she was willing to get down from Chen Fang's arms, but she just didn't want to leave Chen Fang's body.

This is because I was really scared today, and I just want to find someone to rely on at this time, but for Taiping, maybe Chen Fang is the most worthy of her support at this time!

After releasing Taiping, Chen Fang asked a guard to take a steel knife. At this moment, he slashed at the iron-headed tiger's corpse several times, but there was no reaction at all, but the blade was broken in several places.

"The scale armor on this strange fish is too hard. If it is made into armor, it will be a treasure for self-defense."

Wu Meiniang had been by Chen Fang's side all day, and she nodded after listening to Chen Fang's words.

Chapter 604 Fish Scale Armor

"The sharp blade can't penetrate, the crossbow arrow can't go through, it's really good for armor, but how will the son-in-law peel off the scales?"

"Your Majesty, there is always a way!"

"Okay, I've been busy for a long time, son-in-law, you take Taiping to take a bath, and after a while, send her to Ben Gong."

"Ah!...Yes, I will take the little highness to take a bath to wash off the sweat."

Chen Fang was depressed, and at this moment Wu Meiniang left the work of taking the child to the bath to herself.Just ask if you dare to let this son-in-law take Princess Anding to take a bath?This son-in-law will definitely help her clean up.

The empress has fate, what can I do at this time, I can only hug Taiping to take a bath, today the hot spring pool for bathing in Luoyang Palace has been prepared, and I helped the little girl take off her clothes, Chen Fang helped her to wash.

The little girl also really liked Chen Fang, after soaking in the hot spring for a while, she became lively, and had a water fight with Chen Fang, after playing for half an hour, Taiping's frightened emotions finally dissipated today.

Chen Fang carried her out of the hot spring pool and helped her wipe her body with a dry towel. A maid over there had already fetched clean clothes for Taiping to put on. Chen Fang simply tied the little girl into a ponytail and carried her to Wu Meiniang's side. .

At this time Taiping was already sleepy, and the little girl was easily sleepy after being frightened today.

After being hugged by Wu Meiniang for a quarter of an hour, she immediately fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Fang originally sent Taiping over and was about to leave, but Wu Meiniang refused to let her go and coaxed her younger daughter to sleep. Wu Meiniang grabbed Chen Fang's hand and let Chen Fang caress her cheek.

"You are not allowed to go anywhere at night, and stay with me tonight."

"Your Majesty, will it be inconvenient for your Highness to still be here?"

"She's a deep sleeper! As long as she's asleep, thunder won't wake her up."
