After graduating, I became the Dragon King

A few days after the Guangfu cemetery incident, Xue Chen received a call from Zhang Dingyu, inviting him to go to Wucheng together.

Wucheng is located on the east bank of the Dahuang River, another tributary of the Kangyang River. It is a famous tourist attraction in the Kangyang River Basin. The Yuse Lake, a large freshwater lake in the territory, has a vast area, beautiful scenery, and rich aquatic products. It attracts a large number of tourists every year. Check in.

However, Zhang Dingyu invited Xue Chen to go, not for a vacation, but for a distraction ceremony.

"My fellow Taoists and I came to the capital for a meeting this time because of one thing." On the other end of the phone, Zhang Dingyu's voice paused for a moment, and Fang continued, "Since more than 20 years ago, the relationship between the human world and the Kangyang Shuifu It is constantly weakening, and it has recently affected the ecology of the watershed. My friends should also know that the Kangyang Water Network has a vast territory and is of great importance. Therefore, the relevant departments hope to gather the strength of various sects to solve this problem..."

Since ancient times, the relationship between man and God has been inseparable and mutually fulfilling.

With the great development of modern science and technology, mortals have stronger independent creativity and less dependence on gods, but there is still a delicate balance between the two.

The Dragon King of Kangyang River is in charge of the most extensive water area in China. Hundreds of years ago, the Dragon King Temple spread all over the north and south of the river, and there are many believers. He has always been a god who has been valued by various governments.

In the former dynasty, whenever there were major festivals, officials would take the lead in holding large-scale sacrifices by the Kangyang River.

Even in today's era, there are still not a few people who worship the Dragon King of Kangyangjiang in the practice circle, and the relevant departments have always maintained contact with the Dragon King.

But in recent years, this kind of induction has become weaker and weaker. In the age when the gods were dormant, this change did not attract attention at first, until some unusual things happened one after another in the Kangyang waters.

The various incidents that Xue Chen encountered in these days were not accidental, but actually just the tip of the iceberg.

Zhang Dingyu told him that in the past few years, there have been more or less troubles in the rivers and lakes in the river basin, but they were suppressed by the practitioners.

The relevant departments are also busy with these things, so they have no time to take over monsters like Zhu Polong.

And after gathering the incidents reported from various newspapers, the competent authorities finally noticed something was wrong—the creatures in the waters of the Kangyang River seemed to be getting out of control.

The Dragon King is the leader of the aquatic tribe in the region, and if the aquatic tribe loses control, either the Dragon King is negligent or the Dragon King becomes weak.

Either way, it's not good news for mortals.

This time, the masters of the cultivation world gathered in the capital to discuss how to deal with this matter.

In addition, there is another urgent matter that needs to be resolved urgently, that is, Wucheng by the Dahuang River has not rained for several months, and the territory is experiencing severe drought.

Wucheng is an agricultural city, and the drought has greatly affected it. Now various public agencies are actively responding and organizing disaster relief, and the religious circles can't just watch, so they plan to organize a rain prayer ceremony and a donation ceremony to do their best.

Originally, the rain praying ceremony in the river basin should pray to the Dragon King of Kangyang River, but now the connection between all walks of life and the Dragon King of Kangyang River is too weak. On the contrary, during the battle of Xiaolanwei, Taoism and Buddhism both clearly Arrived at the supernatural power of Mr. Fubo.

Furthermore, since the Yangnanxi Dragon King Temple was changed to enshrine Lord Fubo, the wind and water atmosphere has been greatly improved. When the drought in Wucheng could not be alleviated, Wucheng also deliberately turned to Lord Fubo for help.

So after several discussions, they decided to build another temple in Wucheng to worship Lord Fubo Long.

Zhang Dingyu: "The site selection of the new Dragon King Temple in Wucheng has been completed. Next, we are going to divert from Yangnanxi and invite Lord Fubo's divine power to go there. After discussing, we agreed that you and Lord Fubo have the strongest relationship. It is most appropriate for you to come forward."

Xue Chen: "..."

Boy, I treat myself too!

He didn't really want to participate in the change of gods in Yangnanxi Dragon King Temple before, but he was changed to Lord Fubo. After all, this area is the territory of Kangyang River Dragon King.

Besides, when he returns to the Dragon Clan in the future, there will always be a time when he will meet the Dragon King of Kangyangjiang, and there will be a fight at that time.

But now and then, so many things are pointing to Kangyang Water Mansion, Xue Chen also wants to find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible, so he agreed to the invitation without much hesitation.

Naturally, Jane Lance was also invited.

Xue Chen: Good!Going out with my brother again!

Knowing that Xue Chen was going to travel far away, all the employees in the studio rushed to go with him.

One clam and two fish go to the boys' dormitory at night.

Che Bijun: "Take me with you, I can shine, I can make a boat, and I can work overtime."

Xiaohong: "I'm lucky!"

Yu Yanshan: "I must still be the most useful. Wucheng is separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and I travel thousands of miles every day..."

Xue Chen punched each of them: "None of them."

Aquatic products: ... If you don’t bring it, you don’t take it, why do you still have the QAQ of punching

Yu Yanshan was still not reconciled: "Master, are you really not considering taking a special plane? I guarantee that I will fly fast and steadily."

Xiaohong: "Shameless, this is an upgrade from a private car to a private plane."

Yu Yanshan's silver carp raised her chest: "This fish can be upgraded based on its strength, why not?"

"Do you know how developed satellites are now?" Xue Chen interrupted Yu Yanshan expressionlessly, "You try to go to the sky, if you can't get out of the floating city, you have to be arrested and studied."

Yu Yanshan slapped his head: "Oh, I forgot about this."

Today's human world is not the same as before, and it's not an era when gods and monsters can fly around at will.

Seeing that they were still refusing to leave, Xue Chen sneered, folded his hands on his chest and said, "Anyone who wants to make soup with his body can come with me."

"Goodbye, sir." The three aquatic products rushed out of the dormitory immediately, and Che Bijun skillfully closed the balcony door.

Xue Chen's roommates: "..."

Cheng Han pinched the bridge of his nose distressedly: "I feel like my eyes have depreciated again."

Xue Chen and Jane Lance came out of Wucheng Airport and took a taxi to Yuse Seaside. The location of the new Dragon King Temple was set at the junction of Dahuang River and Yuse Sea.

They encountered air traffic control when they came, and the flight was delayed for two hours. Jane Lance was worried that Xue Chen was too tired, so she said after getting in the car, "Go to sleep first, and I will call you when we arrive?"

Xue Chen was actually not very tired, he was much stronger now than when he was just a man, but since Jane Lance said so, he was also happy and relaxed, so he slumped on the seat and narrowed his eyes.

The dragon's vigilance is very strong, but beside Jane Lance, Xue Chen rarely relaxes, and after a while, his breathing becomes longer.

Jane Lance saw Xue Chen's body leaning slightly, and slowly tilted towards the window in the slight bumps, fearing that his head would hit him, so after thinking for a while, he leaned over and stretched out his hand to reach the other side of Xue Chen's body. On one side, he gently supported Xue Chen's head.

Long is so sensitive. As soon as Jane Lance's hand approached, Xue Chen opened his eyes, with misty water vapor in his eyes, yawned and asked, "Brother, what are you doing?"

Jane Lance froze slightly, but he didn't intend to hide his heart, and said, "Are you uncomfortable?"

Xue Chen: "Fortunately..."

Jane Lance: "Do you want to rely on me?"

The voices of the two came out at the same time, and then there was a meal.

A second later, Xue Chen twisted his neck and changed his words without changing his face: "It's really uncomfortable!"

He added, "Then thank you, brother."

After finishing speaking, the whole person tilted to the other side, and put his head on Jane Lance's shoulder unceremoniously.

Jane Lance laughed, but didn't say anything. She just adjusted her posture silently so that her neck would fit Xue Chen better.

Xue Chen breathed out comfortably, before closing his eyes, he said from the bottom of his heart: "Brother is so kind."

The two were so close that Jane Lance could smell the snow-like natural and clear breath from him again.

Jane Lance raised her hand subconsciously, wanting to touch the tip of his hair, hesitated for a moment, then put it back, he lowered his eyes, and said softly: "No, I'm not as good as you think."

Xue Chen was confused again, and mumbled deliriously after hearing this: "Nonsense, you are just that good."

Probably to show his position, he skillfully stretched out his hand and wrapped it around Jane Lance's waist, "Senior brother is the best, he is good-looking, and..."

Before he finished speaking, he had already fallen asleep in a daze.

When Jane Lance was hugged by him, she felt stiff all over, except for one heart beating wildly.

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the night in Xiaolanwei, the clouds and fog passed by, and the moonlight made his thoughts invisible.

He chuckled helplessly, and finished Xue Chen's unfinished words in a low voice.

"Thinking of you all the time."

……

The taxi stopped outside the ancient village on the seaside of Yuse, and Jane Lance rubbed Xue Chen's head lightly: "Xiao Chen, we're here."

Xue Shen opened his eyes in a daze, his consciousness was still in chaos, and he instinctively gnawed on Jane Lance's shoulder while he was half asleep, "Wow!"

Jane Lance smiled and said, "Are you grinding your teeth again?"

This is not the first time. When he slept with Xue Chen before, Xue Chen would grind his teeth on his shoulder after he was drunk.

But Jane Lance felt helpless before, but now she has a little more connivance, and... vague expectations.

Xue Chen woke up in a jerk, and found that he had done too much to his brother again, so he quickly sat up straight, and looked at the sky as if nothing had happened: "It seems to be a dream."

I thought to myself, when I was in the Hui nationality, I had to consult with the elders, what happened to the teenager Long Lao dreaming about grinding his teeth!

The senior brother is really too, and he didn't stop him, which made him feel restless!

The two got out of the car, and a young girl with dark skin was already waiting outside the village.

The girl's name is Yu Chunchun, and she is one of the staff members of this distraction ceremony. She is also an aborigine who has lived on the seaside of Yuse for generations.

Xue Chen and Jane Lance were a little strange seeing Yu Chunchun. Zhang Dingyu clearly said that it was a man who picked them up.

"Something happened in the town temporarily, and they had to deal with it, so they let me come here." Yu Chunchun explained, with a little anger on his face, "I don't know which wicked person with smoke digs up the Shenmu dragon boat in our town gone."

Xue Chen was a little surprised when he heard this: "The Shenmu dragon boat was stolen?"

Wucheng has vast waters, so dragon boat culture is very popular. Every year when the dragon boat season comes, a large number of foreign tourists come here to experience dragon boat activities.

The most famous dragon boat in Wucheng is called the Shenmu dragon boat. It is said that the wood is so thick that it sank when it was first built. Since then, the boat has woken up and won the dragon boat race championship year after year.

Now the Shenmu dragon boats have been retired and no longer participate in competitions for rankings. They only patrol the river during the dragon boat season for viewing. If there is an accident in any water area, the Shenmu dragon boats will be invited to swim to drive away evil spirits.

Now is not the dragon boat season. According to the customs of Wucheng, the dragon boat should be buried in the mud at the bottom of the river. Generally, the elders will preside over the rituals before the Buddha Bathing Festival, dig it out, and carry it ashore on their shoulders.

Unexpectedly, it was secretly poached.

Yu Chunchun nodded: "The thief's methods are too powerful. We checked all the nearby surveillance cameras, but we didn't find any clues. I don't know how to get such a big ship away."

Xue Chen skillfully replied: "Maybe it wasn't done by someone."

Yu Chunchun glanced at him, seemingly surprised: "Are you so superstitious?"

Xue Chen had the same surprise: "Aren't you superstitious about the Dragon King Temple working group you joined?"

Yu Chunchun spread his hands: "Isn't this promoting traditional customs and creating a cultural scenic spot?"

Xue Chen said "Oh", "That's fine."

The author has something to say:

Shen: Brother, what are you talking about, speak up, I am a dragon (deaf)!
