Chapter 497 Gua Master Yuan Shoucheng
"Little bastard, why are you so slow? You smell like alcohol, you went to drink again!" Cheng Yaojin glanced at the two of them and immediately shouted at Lu Huaming.
Lu Huaming lowered his head and dared not respond.
"You just know how to fool around all day, and you are half-hearted in your cultivation. Look at Shen Luo, who was far behind you in cultivation before, but now he has caught up with you, and he still doesn't know how to make progress!" Cheng Yaojin looked at Shen Luo, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then continued to scold Lu Huaming.
Shen Luo was a little embarrassed, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to stand aside silently.
"Okay, Lord, Shen is still here, in front of outsiders, give nephew Lu some face." Master Huangmu said.
Cheng Yaojin stopped talking when he saw Master Huangmu talking. .
Lu Huaming put his hands behind his back and secretly made a pass gesture to Shen Luo, which made Shen Luo a little amused.
"Haha, Shen boy, you have helped the Tang government again this time." Cheng Yaojin then looked at Shen Luo, and immediately changed his face into a smile, laughing.
"Duke Cheng, you are too kind. Although I am a casual cultivator, I am also a citizen of the Tang Dynasty. I understand what justice is. Seeing evil things slaughtering the people, I naturally cannot sit idly by." Shen Luo said hurriedly, remaining humble.
"Well, this is exactly the style of chivalrous people of my generation!" Master Huang Mu stroked his beard and praised.
"Thank you for your praise, senior Huang Mu. What I did today was just for the people, but in the eyes of some people, they may think that Shen is colluding with demons." Shen Luo sighed meaningfully.
"Don't worry, Shen boy, I promise to clarify such rumors for you!" Cheng Yaojin said, patting his chest.
"Thank you, Duke Cheng!" Shen Luo was delighted.
Wu Ming used this excuse to slander him. Although it seems that it has no effect on him at present, the other party is a disciple of Mount Putuo after all. He dare not underestimate the influence of this great sect in the world. However, with Cheng Yaojin's words, he was relieved.
"Duke Cheng, Senior Huang Mu, you two called us here, what's the matter?" Shen Luo asked again.
"I called you here for two main reasons. First, my Tang government has always been clear about rewards and punishments. The last trip to the underworld, plus this time to resist the Dragon King of Jinghe River, you, Shen Xiaoyou, have made two great achievements in succession. After discussing with Duke Cheng, I decided to give you some substantial rewards. Do you have anything you want? The resources of the Tang government are quite rich. As long as you can name an item, you can basically find it." Master Huang Mu said.
"Thank you Master Huang Mu and Duke Cheng for your kindness. I do have something I want. I'm so shameless to ask you two to give me some binary true water." Shen Luo said after a change of mind.
What he needs most at the moment is something that can prolong his life, and the Binary True Water. The Tang government should have a treasure that can prolong his life, but if he makes this request, it may cause suspicion from Master Huangmu and Cheng Yaojin, and there is a risk of exposing the secret of the jade pillow.
"Binary True Water? I remember there are some of this in the warehouse, right?" Master Huangmu's sparse eyebrows trembled, and then asked Cheng Yaojin.
Shen Luo couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this.
"Unfortunately, the Binary True Water was exchanged when we traded with the Museum last year." Cheng Yaojin shook his head.
Shen Luo was disappointed when he heard this, but he also had an idea. Could it be that Chen Gang's Binary True Water came from the Tang government?
"Is that so? Then we can only transfer it from outside, which will take some time. I wonder if you can wait? Or you can exchange it for other auxiliary treasures of water-attributed exercises?" Master Huangmu looked at Shen Luo.
"I am willing to wait, so there is no need to change to anything else." Shen Luo said hurriedly. There is no more suitable item than Binary True Water to assist in the practice of water-attributed exercises.
"Well, it will take about two months to allocate Binary True Water. You can come to the Tang government to collect it then." Master Huangmu said.
"Yes." Shen Luo agreed hurriedly.
"Junior Brother Lu also made contributions this time. We will talk about your reward later. The second reason I asked you to come here is to ask you to tell me in detail about your encounter with the Dragon King of Jinghe River today." Master Huangmu said with a serious look.
Seeing this, Shen Luo and Lu Huaming did not dare to neglect it, and each of them told the story of today in detail again.
After listening, Cheng Yaojin sighed.
"Duke Cheng, I did not participate in the incident back then. According to what they said, is it possible to confirm that the man was the Dragon King of Jinghe River?" Master Huangmu pondered for a moment, looked at Cheng Yaojin and asked.
"It is indeed him. I didn't expect that he would actually come back. No wonder the golden bells in the palace rang and the beasts wailed today. I was urgently summoned to the palace by His Majesty and failed to deal with the matter in the east of the city in time. Fortunately, Mr. Huangmu and you returned early, so no disaster occurred." Cheng Yaojin sighed.
"Master, what is the matter with the Dragon King of Jinghe River? Why did Duke Wei cut off his head and suppress it in the river? Why did he threaten to seek revenge on His Majesty?" Lu Huaming asked.
Shen Luo was also very curious and listened with his ears.
Cheng Yaojin hesitated and did not speak for a while.
"Duke Cheng, I think it's okay to tell them. Junior Brother Lu and Little Friend Shen were involved in the Dragon King of Jinghe River incident twice in succession. It seems that they are destined to be together. This major event may require their action to end." Master Huangmu said.
"Okay. It's a long story. Let's start from the thirteenth year of Zhenguan. At that time, a gentleman named Yuan Shoucheng appeared in the city. He specialized in telling fortunes for people. He was said to be able to know Yin and Yang, judge the Life and death. There was an old man fishing outside the city who gave Yuan Shoucheng a golden carp every day and asked Yuan Shoucheng to predict where to cast the net and where to throw the hook. Many Jinghe Water Tribes and the Jinghe Dragon King were furious when they learned about this and came to Chang'an City to find Yuan Shoucheng to settle the score," Cheng Yaojin said slowly.
"Yuan Shoucheng..." Shen Luo raised his eyebrows, recalling the name Yuan Tiangang that the Dragon King of Jinghe called before leaving. Both of them had the surname Yuan. Could it be related to this Yuan Shoucheng?
"The Jinghe Dragon King came to Chang'an City and found Yuan Shoucheng. The two made a bet on the weather the next day. If Yuan Shoucheng's calculation was inaccurate, he would leave Chang'an City and never come back." Cheng Yaojin continued.
"Since ancient times, the dragon clan has been responsible for making clouds and rain. The Jing River is located outside Chang'an City. The Dragon King of Jing River controls the wind and rain near Chang'an City. He bets on the weather. It seems that he is determined to drive Yuan Shoucheng out of Chang'an. What a scoundrel." Lu Huaming curled his lips and interjected.
Shen Luo and the Jinghe Dragon King met several times today and got to know his character somewhat. Although the Jinghe Dragon King's move was a bit rogue, it was also for the Jinghe Aquatic Tribe, so there was nothing to praise or criticize.
Moreover, Yuan Shoucheng was also quite curious as to why he was trying to predict the movements of the Jing River aquatic tribe for the old fisherman. Could it be that there was something special about the golden carp he was looking for?
