Chapter 19 The Legend of Yangjiao Lake
It was the hot summer, the sun was scorching, and the air was filled with burning heat, making the ground hot, and the wild flowers and weeds on both sides of the road were also hanging their heads listlessly, and people felt pity for them.
Hang vigorously drove the carriage from the official road. Wherever he went, in addition to the shallow ruts, there were still a burst of coolness.
Like a rain falling from the sky, the wild flowers on the roadside were immediately cheered up and straightened their backs.
Of course, this cannot be due to the great power, but rather comes from the wonder of the carriage itself.
Or to put it more accurately, it comes from the spiritual array carved on the body of the car.
This formation can not only turn the carriage into a solid fortress, but also greatly improve its stability. No matter how rugged the ground is or how fast the carriage moves, it is difficult for the people in the carriage to feel the slightest bump.
In addition, arbitrarily adjusting the temperature in the car makes people feel the comfort of warm winter and cool summer. This is also a major feature of this spiritual array.
In this case, it is no wonder that this car is Marshal Ye’s favorite.
But I don’t know what I would feel when Marshal Ye finds out that his beloved car has been rammed and severely cut off the ceiling in the future?
In fact, there is no need to wait until that time. Not long after I came out of Baima Town, the water in the car was already a little regretful.
Because although the carriage without a ceiling can block the hot wave, it cannot cover the scorching sun at all!
After a while, Shui'er's little face turned red by the sun. She wanted to find a place to hide, but she had nowhere to hide.
At this time, Xia Sheng had calmed down and looked at the water jumping up and down, so anxious that he couldn't help but smile.
He stretched out his hand, fumbled in the bag beside him for a while, then took out a paper umbrella and handed it to Ye Xiao'e, and smiled and said, "Xiao'e, this sunshine is so poisonous, why don't I hold an umbrella for you to cover it."
As he said that, Xia Sheng glanced at Shui'er casually and teased: "Your daughter's house is not as white as me. She has such white skin. If she gets sunburned into black charcoal after returning from this trip, it will be my sin."
Upon hearing this, Shui'er's face suddenly froze, as if a dark little man had appeared in her mind, grinning with big white teeth and smiling faintly.
Thinking of this, Shui'er trembled hard all over. When she came to her senses, she suddenly became angry and became brave. She jumped up with lightning speed and snatched the oil-paper umbrella in Xia Sheng's hand.
"Mr. Xia, why are you so embarrassed to bother you with such a rough job? Taking care of the lady is my duty, so I'll do it!"
Shui'er opened the umbrella righteously and raised it to the heads of herself and Ye Xiao'e, and suddenly felt that the whole world had become extremely beautiful.
Ye Xiao'e smiled at Xia Sheng with understanding: "It's still the thoughtful brother Asheng."
Xia Sheng held a smile in his eyes, and did not bother with Shui'er. Instead, he turned to look at Ye Xiao'e and said slowly: "Okay, we have some time to come out. If Brother Dali doesn't get lost, he will probably arrive soon. Anyway, he is idle. Why don't I tell you the legend of Yangjiao Lake?"
Ye Xiao'e was curious and asked, "Oh? Could it be that there is any legendary origin of this Yangjiao Lake?"
Shui'er, who was standing beside her, stared at Xia Sheng straight, and said, "Is there any story to listen to? I like to listen to stories the most. Mr. Xia, tell me quickly, tell me quickly!"
Xia Sheng nodded with a smile: "Yes, it is said that in ancient times ten thousand years ago, an extremely wise king was born in this world, named Di Jun. Since the rise of Buting Mountain in the South Wilderness, Di Jun has fought countless times and spent his whole life in blood. Finally, before he was twenty-five years old, he completed the first unification of this continent. In the four seas, he bowed his head. Who dared not to obey the countries of the five continents?"
"It is rumored that when Di Jun led his army to fight against the cold desert, he passed through the dense mountain. The demon dragon was in chaos. The demon dragon was covered with ice armor, which was indestructible. The horn on its head was like a sheep's crown and a moon hook. Its power was extremely powerful, causing disaster to all directions. The people were indestructible because of their disturbances."
"After Di Jun learned about it, he led his troops to attack and drove the demon dragon to the border of the Western Wilderness. Finally, he encircled with the ancestor of the West Sea and sealed it on the mountain of beasts and would never escape!"
After hearing what Xia Sheng said, Ye Xiao'e's face suddenly burst into admiration, and she murmured: "I didn't expect that in ancient times, there was such an admirable wise ruler. Unfortunately, Xiao'e was not at the right time and could not see her true face. It was a great regret."
A strange color flashed in Xia Sheng's eyes and laughed repeatedly: "Yes, when I first read the legend of Emperor Jun, I was also rushing towards him. The admiration for him was like a surging river, continuous, and like the flood of the Yellow River, it was out of control..."
However, Xia Sheng's narcissism was ruthlessly interrupted by Shui'er.
"But, what does this have to do with Yangjiao Lake?"
For Shui'er, she had been familiar with these ancient myths and legends since she was a child. Although she didn't know where the allusion of the demon dragon came from, at least she had heard of Di Jun, so she was not as fussy as Ye Xiao'e.
Shui'er's question immediately choked Xia Sheng.
He glared at Shui'er fiercely, and then continued: "It is said that when Di Jun was fighting with the demon dragon, he passed by here. Di Jun transformed into a long sword and slashed the demon dragon's horn with one blow, causing its strength to be greatly damaged. He then fled far away from the Western Wilderness. The one corner was on the earth, and immediately smashed a deep pit of ten feet deep and ten miles in the radius of ten miles. After being irrigated by rain, this brought about the Yangjiao Lake today."
Upon hearing this, Shui'er finally became interested and asked again: "In this way, the shape of Longjiao Lake is the shape of the demon dragon and Longjiao back then? Why not call it Longjiao Lake, but Yangjiao Lake?"
Xia Sheng rolled his eyes and explained angrily: "It's just a legend. Who knows if it's true? Not to mention it far away, just look at the five hundred years of history of our Dajin Dynasty. Dragon has always been an extremely sacred and auspicious symbol, and it also represents the emperor and the old man. Perhaps it was for the sake of the royal taboo, so it changed its name."
Shui'er seemed to have not heard enough and repeatedly said, "Is there any other story in this Yangjiao Lake besides the legend of the demon dragon? Tell me quickly!"
This time, Xia Sheng had a strange smile on his face.
"To be honest, there is indeed another strange thing about Yangjiao Lake. I happened to meet a fishing old man in the town two days ago. I heard from him. However, compared to the legend of the demon dragon, this incident has just happened in recent years. It is said that there is a lake god in Yangjiao Lake now!"
"Lake God!" Shui'er widened her eyes, her face full of shock.
Xia Sheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "I dare not assert whether there is a god who has really come to the world, but according to the description of the Diao Su, the lake god of Yangjiao Lake is dozens of feet long and covered with silver-scale water armor. Once it appears, it will cause sudden changes in the wind and clouds, with waves surging, and golden glows accompanying each other, which is daunting..."
Hearing this, Shui'er had already covered her mouth with one hand, turned her head and looked at Ye Xiao'e.
