After graduating, I became the Dragon King

The meat-shaped answering insect gradually lost its movement in the thunder fire. When the fire was burnt out, there was only a piece of black coke left on the ground, exuding an indescribable burnt smell.

The floor was also burned into a black hole the size of a bowl, surrounded by burnt yellow.

Xue Chen glanced at the hole, and calmly asked Fei Yichun: "This is the damage caused during the treatment, you should be responsible for compensating the hotel for it?"

Fei Yichun's face was still pale, and he nodded hastily: "Of course, of course."

Xue Chen felt relieved.

Unexpectedly, the strange illness that had troubled him for many days was solved so unexpectedly. Fei Yichun was overjoyed, and when he spoke again, there was no such creepy repetition in his stomach.

"It's amazing, it's really amazing, student Xue is really young and promising, it's admirable!" After Fei Yichun came over, she excitedly wanted to shake Xue Chen's hand, but Xue Chen avoided it calmly.

Xue Chen smiled low-key: "It should."

Fei Yichun really wanted to confess Xue Chen, "I really don't know how to thank you."

"Don't say that." Xue Chen said very politely, rubbing together his left thumb and index finger, "You know."

Fei Yichun: "..."

I almost forgot, this classmate came forward after hearing 100 million!

But he doesn't care, he is in business, and he knows that it is his luck that capable people are willing to take money to do things.

Mr. Fei nodded tactfully: "I understand, I understand."

Assistant Chen was really professional. Seeing this, he quickly stepped forward to exchange contact information with Xue Chen, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Xue Chen, we will credit your account as soon as possible."

After a pause, he added, "After tax."

Xue Chen took a deep look at him, "After sale."

This result can be said to be a happy one. Fei Yichun knew that Zhang Dingyu and Jane Lance still had an appointment, so he didn't stay any longer. After a few polite words, he got up and left.

Only Ma Zhenbai couldn't recover for a long time.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Ma Zhenbai still stared blankly at Xue Chen, his eyes were filled with heartbreak, he hesitated for a long time, and finally opened his mouth: "You..."

Xue Chen: "Why?"

Ma Zhenbai's tone was sad, full of doubts about himself: "You just took a look at the writing?"

What hit him the most about this incident was not that Xue Chen could understand ancient script. After all, Xue Chen also said that he was in elementary school.

But the question is, why did he learn it after just a few glances, and did not go through the process at all, and started thundering immediately when he came up.

Anyway, wash your hands first and look more formal! !

Ma Zhenbai's talent is not low, and he has always had a high self-esteem. At his age, he can become the leader of the Duangong faction, and his achievements are not insignificant.

Although he was a little behind in Lei Fa, he always felt that he just lacked a little time. The famous Zhang Dingyu, didn't he have such a cultivation level at this age.

He never thought that there are still people in this world who can learn things so quickly!

After hearing this, Longhushan must take the train overnight to enroll!

Fortunately, Xue Chen shook his head: "How could it be possible to just look at it."

Hearing the words, Ma Zhenbai couldn't help feeling a glimmer of hope.

Seeing Xue Chen think about it for a while, he said seriously, "I've seen it at least a dozen times."

Ma Zhenbai couldn't help sobbing, "Oh——"

Not very harmful, but very insulting!

Seeing this, Fei Yichun couldn't bear it, and said with relief: "Teacher Ma, don't worry, you are still my most trusted master."

How could Ma Zhenbai be in the mood to socialize with him, so he glanced at Xue Chen stupidly, and then handed over his WeChat QR code: "Can I add you?"

Xue Chen: "Okay." After all, Ma Zhenbai also provided him with divine texts. Although he didn't have good intentions, Xue Chen is a generous dragon, so he wouldn't care about him.

The two added WeChat, and Ma Zhenbaicai followed Fei Yichun and the others away with tears in his eyes.

After Fei Yichun and the others left, Xue Chen turned his head and saw Zhang Dingyu, his master and his apprentice looking at him eagerly.

Zhang Dingyu couldn't help sighing: "It's really scary for younger generations, it's awesome for younger generations!"

Ge Xiuran felt sad when she heard the words, choked up and said: "Master, I am also a young generation."

Zhang Dingyu was speechless for a while, and changed the subject in a sly way: "Xiao Xue, I think you have a good talent in Taoism. If you can practice diligently, given time, you may be able to ascend the Tao."

It has been more than a hundred years in the world that there has been no great ability to ascend, Zhang Dingyu's words are undoubtedly a great affirmation of Xue Chen.

——If Xue Chen is human.

Xue Chen glanced at him, he couldn't say that Benlong had learned Taoism for several years, and now he was framed by others and had to re-train, so he said vaguely: "I'm still practicing."

He has indeed been cultivating every day recently, but it is to repair the essence, because the spiritual energy in the world is not enough, it is quite laborious.

Zhang Dingyu nodded when he heard the words, and said: "Last time, I heard you said that you did not join the sect, but you can still achieve such results. If you can formally become a master and have formal guidance, I believe you will make rapid progress...I'm not afraid of making fun of you if you say it. The Taixu Temple is one of the best in the Daoist sect, I wonder if you are interested in visiting it?"

Xue Chen figured it out, Zhang Dingyu originally wanted to recruit students for their Taoist temple.

"Thank you for your kindness." Xue Chen said, "But I have a regular teacher."

Zhang Dingyu was stunned for a moment, wondering if he had misunderstood, Xue Chen actually had a teacher, but the master didn't start a sect.

This is also possible. There are countless folk masters, and there are also many people who are eccentric and loners.

Maybe Xue Chen's master is Fang Wai who likes idle clouds and wild cranes.

"That's really rude and rude." Zhang Dingyu apologized, and then asked curiously, "Who is the revered master?"

A person who can teach Xue Chen's level, even if he doesn't have a school, is by no means an idle person.

In an instant, Zhang Dingyu's mind had already outlined an image of an extraordinary and refined man.

Xue Chen said "Oh": "It's Director Luan Jun of our department, he is my graduation thesis advisor."

He rarely showed a look of awe, "I heard that Mr. Luan's examination is very strict, and he has failed many people. It is really inhumane. I hope I can graduate smoothly."

Zhang Dingyu choked for a moment: "... yes, you are so good."

Xue Chen cupped his fists: "I accept your good words."

The topic of enrollment was so vague, Zhang Dingyu saw that Xue Chen was not interested in Taoism, and it was not easy to force him.

Xue Chen still remembered that Zhang Dingyu had an appointment with Jane Lance, so he said, "I'll leave first if there's nothing to do."

But Zhang Dingyu thought of something, and suddenly said: "If you are interested, you might as well stay and listen together."

Xue Chen said without hesitation, "Not interested."

Zhang Dingyu said faster than him: "We are going to discuss about a monster in the floating city recently. Now the Taoist Association has issued a reward. Whoever can catch that monster will get a reward of 50."

Xue Chen withdrew his outstretched footsteps, and sat back again: "It's a little less, but it's my duty."

On-site: "..." This is really a principled classmate!

It's no wonder that Xue Chen has an eye for money. Dragons like luxury. He is considered simple in Dragons, but the game skin must not be saved, otherwise more dragons will be lost.

Furthermore, he still needs to save some money for his Taoism reconstruction. After this period of time, he has found that the aura of the world has faded very badly. If he wants to recover as soon as possible, he has to rely on the treasures of heaven and earth.

This thing is basically a bottomless pit when it costs money, and it may not be there.

Xue Chen pondered, if he really can't make any money, the last solution is probably to catch a few illegal and criminal monsters to make soup... I hope the monsters in the world will be better and improve their taste!

Zhang Dingyu then talked about the strange things that happened in the province recently.

"About a month ago, some fishermen in the province were injured by a water monster of unknown origin one after another while fishing. The relevant departments suspected that it might be a spirited monster, so they invited some fellow Taoists to subdue it, but unexpectedly, the monster was very fierce and injured several people."

Hearing this, Xue Chen had vaguely guessed why Zhang Dingyu was "unwell". It is estimated that he was also one of the people who were injured by the monster, and he should have been injured when Jinglong King made trouble, so only Ge Xiuran was allowed to Doing dirty rituals alone, but not deliberately perfunctory Xu Rencheng.

Sure enough, Zhang Dingyu continued, "...It's ashamed to say that Pindao was also injured in the fight with that monster, and let the monster escape. Now the monster has fled to Fucheng, where it is hiding. I and a few Taoists You can only stay here for the time being, and if there is any trouble, immediately go to collect the monster."

Xue Chen asked curiously, "Do you know what kind of monster it is now?"

Zhang Dingyu shook his head with a solemn expression: "That monster looks very weird, like a big fish, with a sword on its body, but its face is that of a bird. I've never heard of it... Otherwise, I wouldn't have missed it."

According to Zhang Dingyu, the monster may not be very powerful, but it is extremely powerful and fierce. The biggest problem is that they have never seen this kind of creature before, and they don't know what kind of spell the other party is practicing. It is less targeted when dealing with it. Sex, so that the monster escaped repeatedly.

Xue Chen imagined it according to Zhang Dingyu's description, and found that he had no impression of this creature.

It's really strange that there are aquatic monsters that dragons don't even know in this mortal world.

Xue Chen pondered for a while, then suddenly turned to look at Jane Lance, vaguely feeling that he should know something.

It seems that Jane Lance and Zhang Dingyu are not the same way as Taoist priests, but she made a special trip to ask Zhang Dingyu to discuss this matter. It can't be for no reason.

Sure enough, Jane Lance groaned for a moment, and called up a picture from the phone: "Zhang Daochang, take a look, does the monster you are hunting look like this?"

Xue Chen looked around and found that there was a hand-painted picture on Jane Lance's mobile phone, which showed a huge and weird fish.

The fish has a typical streamlined body, a bit like a whale. The fins on its back are pointed and long, like a sword growing on its back. These parts are barely within the normal range. The weirdest thing is the fish's face.

The fish actually had a round face, round eyes, hair on the face, and a beak.

It was clearly the face of an owl.

No wonder Zhang Dingyu said that the monster has a sword and a bird face.

"That's how it looks!" Zhang Dingyu cheered up, "Mr. Xiao Jian, where did you get this picture? Do you know what kind of monster it is?"

Jane Lance nodded: "This is called the owl-faced whale. It is an ancient sea monster that was sealed in the seas of northern Europe. A few days ago, for some reason, the seal suddenly failed, and it escaped, and fled all the way to China. This time I I came back to China to hunt down this monster."

"So that's how it is." Zhang Dingyu suddenly realized that it was a monster from abroad. No wonder they had never seen it before. He was very surprised, "How could this monster come to China?"

"Smuggled here." Xue Chen thought about it very seriously, "I don't think it should have a visa."

other people:"……"

The author has something to say:

Xiao Shen: Dragon King of China (x), Dragon King of the world (√)

Just kidding!

Owl (xiāo) faces a whale. There may be a small number of readers who do not know the word "owl". Note, it is a bird like an owl.

The idea of ​​this article is urban mythology in the context of globalization (exaggerated rhetoric!), so there will be some foreign monsters, but the overall background is still based on local mythology, and international monsters only account for a small amount of space.

Then the part of foreign monsters basically has a reference prototype, but also made a lot of private settings, just take a look, please don't be particular, asking is empty! ! ! !
