Chapter 106 The Dragon of Liaozhai
Luo Zhi put away the supersonic motorcycle, put on armor, turned on the scientific stealth mode, put away the various monsters, and walked into the village.
The temperature under the feet is very high, and the plants on the roadside are a little wilted, indicating that the hot weather is no longer a day or two.
Fortunately, there are two small rivers flowing through the village, and there are several wells in the village, so there is no shortage of water whether for irrigating farmland or for daily life.
In the field, there were two dark-faced villagers sitting on the ridge to rest.
One person said: "It hasn't rained yet? It's been more than two months."
"What can we do about God's problem?"
"Oh, yes. The village chief said he wanted to build a Dragon King temple, and he didn't know if he could ask for heavy rain."
Luo Zhi's heart moved: "It hasn't rained for more than two months?"
The token was located in the southeast corner of the place. Luo Zhi walked over and saw that it was an ordinary farmer's house. There was a peasant woman working at home.
Luo Zhi took a closer look and found that the token he needed this time was right above the peasant woman's eyes.
This peasant woman's eyes are all black at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that her left eye is the original color, but her right eye has a hint of gold, but it is covered by the original color, so she cannot see clearly.
Luo Zhi also looked at it with the Platinum Star, and then he could clearly distinguish the abnormality in the golden eye.
"It seems that that eye is the token we need."
It's just that the village in the mountains, the dry weather, the peasant women, and my eyes couldn't imagine which story it was from a Chinese fairy tale.
As a student in the Department of Archeology, Luo Zhi knew a lot about various ancient books, especially his own personal hobbies. He read ancient books about myths and mysteries three times and four times.
I am not completely familiar with the stories in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, but Luo Zhi can always think of some stories as long as some of the elements are mentioned.
But now, I can't even remember it at all.
It's really strange.
There are only two possibilities. One, this is not a story from a Chinese fairy tale, but something that was mixed into it. Second, this story is so inconspicuous that Luo Zhi did not remember it at all.
There are hundreds of stories in Liaozhai, including Nie Xiaoqian, Huabi, and Yingning, which have long plots and are more famous, but there are also short stories where the entire story is translated into vernacular and does not have fifty words, just an essay.
.
If what he encountered was that kind of story, Luo Zhi would really be helpless.
Because he didn't remember it at all.
After walking around the village twice and unable to find any other information, Luo Zhi drove his flying motorcycle back to find Tang Mingliang and the others.
At this moment, they had climbed to the mountainside of the mountain. They all fell into thinking after hearing Luo Zhi explain the information.
Then Tang Mingliang shook his head and said, "No, I can't remember what the story is."
Seven Swords and Black Demon also shook their heads.
Tang Mingliang said: "Then I'll ask Qingyue if they know."
In order to facilitate contact, Tang Mingliang and Qingyue added friends, which is just in use now.
Soon Qingyue came back with news that she indeed knew the story.
The Dragon of Liaozhai.
This short story, less than 300 words in total, records four short stories, and what Luo Zhi and the others met was one of the short stories.
A peasant woman went to the field and encountered a strong wind. The wind and sand blew against her face. She felt that one eye was squinted. She rubbed and blew it, but the eye was still not good. She opened her eyelids and looked carefully. There was nothing wrong with her eye. There was only a stripe on the flesh.
The winding red line, someone said: "This is a hibernating dragon." After hearing this, the peasant woman was scared to death. More than three months later, it suddenly started raining heavily, and there was a sudden thunderbolt, and the hidden dragon opened his eyes and flew away.
Yes, the peasant woman was not injured at all.
It's this simple story.
After Tang Mingliang read the story and told the story to the three of them, he said: "That peasant woman is probably the person possessed by the hidden dragon. Now the dragon is inside the peasant woman's eyelids. If we dig out the peasant woman's
Eyes, I'm afraid it will alarm the dragon."
Qijian shook his head and said: "I don't think so. Think about it, how could a normal dragon get into someone's eyes? And stay there for more than three months? I suspect that this dragon is in trouble.
Now, I can only hide from the peasant woman’s eyes for the time being.”
Luo Zhi said: "There has been no rain in that village for more than two months. According to the topography, it is also very strange. Think about the story again, the dragon escaped from the peasant woman's eyelids during the sudden heavy rain.
It turned into a prototype and flew away... It seems that this long drought and no rain weather has something to do with that dragon."
Tang Mingliang said: "That makes sense. There is a high probability that the dragon is in trouble. Well, you have to get the token anyway. There is really no other way except to get the eyes by force."
Luo Zhi touched his chin and said: "Not necessarily. If we [Tianlai Novel www.23txt.info] spend money, we might be able to buy it. Although the family's life is not poor, it is not very good either.
, if our bid is high..."
In the afternoon, they climbed over the mountain, changed their clothes, and walked into the village.

Qingyue closed the friends panel, turned to the two people around her and said, "They have arrived at the location of the last token, and what they encountered is a very niche story."
They are now staying in an inn near Zhuerdan's home, so they can monitor Zhuerdan nearby.
Highland Barley Wine asked: "Is it already the seventh day? It's so fast. Speaking of which, it's only the third day now. There are still four days to go."
Qingyue said: "The token is easy to get, but the terrain in that place is very complicated. It is estimated that when they get the token and come back, it will be the day after tomorrow, that is, the fifth day. There has been no movement on our side, but
It’s outrageous.”
Highland Barley Jiu said helplessly: "Pan Lu never comes, what can I do?"
The three of them looked at Zhuerdan's house outside, feeling helpless.
"By the way, have you written down Zhuerdan's action pattern?"
"Yeah, I've already written it down."
Jiuying suddenly shouted: "Look, that woman...well, Zhu Erdan's wife has gone out."
Highland Barley Wine came over to take a look and said: "People still need daily living expenses, so what's the point of going out? Wait a minute, is she going to buy groceries in this direction?"
Qingyue also came to the window and said: "She just went to buy groceries yesterday, which was enough for their family to eat for two days. She went there again today..."
Highland Barley Jiu's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "It should be a treat! Ever since Zhu Erdan became friends with Lu Pian, not many people dared to associate with him. I'm afraid Lu Pian is coming this time."
Qingyue said: "Let's go and have a look."
The three of them followed and soon discovered that Zhu Erdan's wife had purchased a lot of vegetables and meat this time, as well as a large amount of wine. This made the three of them even more sure, because in the story, Lu Pian and Zhu Erdan
They both loved drinking, and Lu Pian's drinking capacity was even more terrifying. He could drink ten glasses of wine at a time.
"There is a 100% chance that Judge Lu will come tonight. What should we do? Do we still want to see him?" Jiuying asked.
