Chapter 8 Internship

A few days later, Zhao Shucheng and his friends packed their luggage and met with Li Chun, and officially set off for Gulan County.

Gulan County is located in Shaanxi. It was known as the land of the Three Qins in ancient times, but now it is a Loess Plateau.

Everyone took the train to Yulin and then transferred to the passenger bus.

However, the car broke down halfway, and it took four or five hours to drive forward and arrived at the bank of the Yellow River. The car broke down again. The driver told Zhao Shucheng and others that if they wanted to go to Gulan County, they had to cross the river first. The ferry in front was still far away and it was almost dark. If they were to go to the ferry now, there might not be a boat. On the contrary, the river channel was a bit narrow, and there was a small ferry. The rainfall was heavy recently, and the water level of the Yellow River soared. If you cross the river, you can try your luck whether there is a boat. If you are lucky, you can cross the river and stay in a hotel before it gets dark.

Hu Bayi said: "If we don't have a village or a shop in front of us, if we don't have a boat, wouldn't we have to spend the night on the shore?"

When Li Chunlai heard this, he quickly said, "Don't panic, let's wait for a while, and we'll come later."

"Where is there?"

Big Jinya said, "Or we'll go back and see when the car will be repaired?"

"If you want to go back, you have been waiting for so long. This car may not be repaired."

As I was talking, I saw a boat sailing towards them on the Yellow River.

Wang Kaixuan and Da Jinya immediately waved to the boat excitedly and asked the boss of the boat to stop at the dock.

The people on the boat obviously saw Zhao Shucheng and the others, but waved their hands repeatedly, indicating that there was no way to stop the ship here.

Everyone boarded the boat here, and finally waited for a boat, so naturally it was impossible to let it go, otherwise I wouldn't know how long it would take to wait for the next boat to come.

The fat man took out a handful of money and held it in front of him and swayed at the people on the boat. Hu Bayi even spoke out two great unity, which made the boss of the boat agree to dock the boat.

After the group boarded the boat, the boss of the boat said, "I'm not extorting your money. It's because it's raining so hard these days. It's been raining all the time. The water level of the Yellow River soars, and it's flooding. In this kind of weather, I'm most afraid of the river god getting angry. I risk my life to send you a ride."

Hu Bayi smiled and said, "I said, brother, where did the river god come from? You are purely feudal superstition."

The boat boss was unhappy and said, "I didn't say nonsense. One year, the water level of the Yellow River soared quickly and retreated quickly. He rushed to the shore with a particularly large fish skeleton. The people who were on the boat here all thought that this fish was the incarnation of the river god, and they gave it a special name, the Iron Head Dragon King."

After hearing this, Wang Kaixuan smiled and said, "This big fish is the Dragon King, and this Dragon King is too valuable. Besides, how big a fish can be, it is only 180 kilograms."

The boss of the boat shook his head and said, "I dare not talk nonsense. The fish bones are very big, even bigger than my boat. At that time, everyone could not deal with the iron-headed Dragon King casually, so they wanted to use his fish bones to build a temple. But the villagers couldn't afford it. It was a coincidence that a foreign merchant came at this time. After hearing about this, he took the initiative to pay for the Dragon King to build a temple to bless the place with good weather."

The fat man said, "It sounds a bit strange to sit in the temple with fish bones."

Da Jinya said: "This matter is really not rare. There is such a fish bone temple in Tianjin."

As he said that, he looked at the boss of the boat and asked, "Did you use fish bones as beams, fish heads as temple gates, and sacrifice to the Dragon Prince?"

The boss of the boat nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I didn't expect that there were also Tianjin. It was similar to what you said. Foreign merchants said that they often had to travel far and cross the river, so they paid for the construction of this Fish Bone Temple to bless themselves to have a smooth future."

Hu Bayi became interested later when he heard this and asked, "Then is this Fish Bone Temple still there?"

"I'm in the valley of Longling, but it's been abandoned for many years now."

Fatty Wang asked curiously: "Why is it still abandoned?"

"The foreign businessman said that the feng shui in the valley is good. If the temple is built there, it will definitely be good weather. However, since the Fish Bone Temple was built, it has not been effective. After a while, no one went to worship, and naturally it was abandoned."

Hu Bayi glanced at Zhao Shucheng and found that Zhao Shucheng had no intention of speaking. He stood up and said, "This is strange."

"How did you say this?"

"You think, this person invested in the construction of the Fish Bone Temple. Why did this temple have to be by the river? Why did it take such a big trouble? Instead, it would have to build a Fish Bone Temple in the mountains?" Hu Bayi saw Wang Kaixuan and Da Jinya walk to him and whispered: "Look, this is probably a tomb robber. It's fake to build a temple, and it's real to touch gold. It should be because he has seen an ancient tomb in Longling. Building a temple is to hide his eyes, right, Mr. Zhao?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and nodded, saying, "It's almost the same. After all, the feng shui in the mountains is good, but the Fish Bone Temple is the river god. The mountain god has the final say in the mountains. The river god can only take care of the affairs in the river."

As he was talking, suddenly the ship seemed to hit a reef and swayed violently.

Just when Hu Bayi and others were a little surprised, suddenly there was lightning and thunder in the sky, and it started to rain heavily. The river water suddenly became turbulent and the ships were pounding.

The ship owner was suddenly a little frightened, thinking that the river god was angry and wanted to collect the ship.

Zhao Shucheng looked under the water and said, "Here you come!"

Hu Bayi and others followed Zhao Shucheng's gaze and saw a shadow appearing at the bottom of the ship, as if it was a huge strange fish.

Zhao Shucheng looked at the strange fish under the water and looked at the current celestial phenomena. For a moment, he didn't know whether this strange fish was really good or whether this fish noticed the weather change, so he took the opportunity to make waves.

However, if the fish continues to toss, the boat Zhao Shucheng and the others can't hold on, and will sooner or later be subverted.

Zhao Shucheng went directly to the side of the boat, tied his waist with a rope, picked up a harpoon, stood directly on the railing of the ship's side, and when the strange fish was about to hit the boat again, he jumped up and stabbed it hard.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! With a loud bang in the water, the water surface was dyed red immediately. Zhao Shucheng grabbed the harpoon and refused to let go, and was taken into the water by the strange fish.

"Wow!"

With a huge wave, Hu Bayi and others saw a huge strange fish appearing on the water in the distance. They had seven or eight layers of huge scales on their bodies, their heads were black, and they looked as big as a truck. There were beards under their mouths, and their teeth were shining coldly and densely packed.

Zhao Shucheng was on the monster fish, as if he was holding something to hit the monster fish.

The strange fish seemed to have also noticed Zhao Shucheng's attack and instantly sank into the water again, as if she wanted to use this method to make Zhao Shucheng give up.

However, just as the Iron Head Dragon King was about to dive again, he suddenly couldn't dive. It turned out that Zhao Shucheng had a rope tied to the harpoon before and tied it to the boat. The strange fish wanted to dive, which was equivalent to diving into the water with this boat. Although this boat was not a big boat, the power needed to pull the whole boat into the water directly is not something this fish could do easily.

Seeing that the strange fish could not dive, it thought of turning over or rotating itself to get rid of Zhao Shucheng. Unfortunately, it underestimated Zhao Shucheng. Zhao Shucheng directly used the Golden Light Curse to turn into a big hand, and directly grabbed the body of the Iron-Headed Dragon King. No matter how it turned over, it could not throw Zhao Shucheng into the water.

Zhao Shucheng knew very well that although he could swim, fighting such a giant beast in the water would undoubtedly give up his strengths, so fighting on the Iron Head Dragon King is the best way.

Now underwater, others could not see Zhao Shucheng's movements, so Zhao Shucheng took out an ancient sword customized with special steel from his steel factory from his portable space and directly slashed the iron-headed dragon king with force.

Although the scales of the Iron-Headed Dragon King are very hard, after all, the so-called Dragon King is still a fish, and the scales are still incomparable to steel, so Zhao Shucheng quickly cut off the scales and even inserted the sword directly on his body, and there were more and more scars.

In the pain, the strange fish let out waves of wailing, and even struggled violently, sometimes floating on the surface and sometimes falling into the water with force.

Soon the strange fish gave up struggling and floated quietly on the water. It seemed that because the strange fish stopped moving, the stormy weather just now also disappeared, and the rain seemed to be clear.

Zhao Shucheng originally wanted to completely solve the iron-headed Dragon King, but when he saw the current changes in the celestial phenomena, he suddenly stopped moving.

"No matter whether you understand it or not, since people call you the Iron Head Dragon King, it can be considered as a god for you. So now you have the obligation to protect the villagers around you. Not only can you not ask for sacrifices, but you also have to treat someone who accidentally enters the Yellow River. If I know that you are still stirring up winds and waves in the Yellow River, you will not leave your life. You know that I have this ability, if you don't believe it, you can try it."

As he said that, Zhao Shucheng pulled out the harpoon from the strange fish's body without waiting for the strange fish to respond, and jumped off the strange fish's body and swam towards the boat.

The strange fish seemed to have noticed Zhao Shucheng's departure and swam forward tentatively for a while. After finding that he was not carrying a weight on his body, he looked back at Zhao Shucheng's figure, and directly penetrated into the bottom of the water and disappeared.

When the boat boss saw Zhao Shucheng coming up like this, and the weather suddenly became clear, he immediately said excitedly: "This guy, thank you for saving me and my child. If it weren't for you, our boat would have been taken away by the Dragon Prince."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "No need to thank me, I just don't want to let myself fall into the water. Besides, this fish is reasonable and should not continue to cause trouble and harm the people in the future."

"If this is the case, that would be great. This is really a blessing from the gods, and the gods will bless you."

Wang Kaixuan said in a naughty way: "This is not a blessing from a god, it is our Master Zhao."

Zhao Shucheng took a photo of Wang Kaixuan and said, "Fatty, otherwise the Iron-headed Dragon King will come back, and you can communicate with him?"

Wang Kaixuan waved his hand and said, "Master Zhao, don't use me to make a cross. I just faced this Dragon King, but I had no strength at all."

Big Jinya looked at Li Chun who was on the side and said, "If you want me to say, it's all because of your embroidered shoes."

Li Chunlai held the bag tightly and said, "This is my baby shoes."

After this incident, the boss of the ship was still in shock, so he quickly drove the boat away from here and used all his strength to head towards the Gulan County Pier.

A few hours later, everyone finally got off the shore and came to Gulan County. Li Chunlai personally brought his group to a guesthouse in Gulan County to settle down.

"Four bosses, you can rest early. I'll come again tomorrow. Then we'll collect the treasures."

After saying that, Li Chunlai turned around and left casually.

Da Jinya looked at Li Chunlai's figure and said, "Masters, we finally came to Gulan County this time. After collecting antiques, let's not hurry to leave. I heard from my colleagues that Li Chunfeng's tomb is also here. When nothing happens another day, we will also go and worship. Li Chunfeng is a famous Feng Shui master in history, and he is half a colleague of us."

Zhao Shucheng shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it if you can receive antiques this time. This time, everything is not going well. The bus broke down halfway and met the Dragon King halfway by boat. It can be seen that it will not be smooth sailing to collect things this time."

Wang Kaixuan smiled and said, "Master Zhao, do you believe in these false and feudal superstitious things now?"

Zhao Shucheng looked at Fatty Wang and smiled, saying, "It's not something that believes it or not, but feudal superstition is not all fake and bad. Things that cannot be explained in science can have a logical and self-consistent explanation."

Da Jinya nodded and said, "Mr. Zhao is right. It is better to believe in this kind of thing than to believe in it. Just say that Master Hu's sixteen-character dividing of gold and deciding acupoints is based on the so-called feudal superstition, but can you say that Master Hu's methods are not good and cannot determine the direction of Feng Shui?"

Suddenly, Dajinya said curiously: 'Speaking of this, Master Hu, I have always had a problem that I don't understand. You said that all the emperors of China have paid attention to dragon veins. There are hundreds of emperors and so many emperors, how many dragon veins can be buried in them?'

"Actually, there are dragon veins, but they have their own opinions. From the Feng Shui point of view, the two most important points are shape and momentum. The shape refers to the terrain and mountain shape of the tomb; the momentum is the state of the terrain and mountain shape. The dragon searching technique says: The great way has its own truth, and the floating and hidden appearance is the dragon body. The dragon gives birth to nine sons, which are different, and the temper, nature, talent, and appearance are also different. The dragon veins are even more so, so it is much more complicated than the dragon giving birth to nine sons, which is considered to be reasonable and well-founded."
