Chapter 131: Creating Characters for Great Misfortune
"Qinglong?"
In Sanxing Cave, a dragon and an old immortal were drinking tea together.
Zhulong chewed tea leaves and watched Patriarch Bodhi talking there.
This tea is grown from the young buds of the innate maple tree. Although it is useless to him, it is not poison at least.
And because of the innate maple tree, Sanxing Cave, although not as good as the prehistoric one, has been tainted with something far beyond this world.
"As far as I can remember, after the Kaitian Longhan catastrophe, the dragon race declined, and the Azure Dragon was one of the ancestors of the dragon race."
“After Zulong died, in order to prevent the Heavenly Dao from destroying the destiny of the dragon race, he petitioned the Heavenly Dao to suppress Dongji and became one of the Five Spirits of Heaven and Earth.”
After hearing this, Chen Zhu murmured in his heart, was there already a Heavenly Way in this world of Bodhi Patriarch at that time?
Having said this, Patriarch Bodhi closed the door, sent Karl, who was looking for him, out, and drank another sip of tea.
"In the memories of the three religions, Yuanshi Tianzun once had an encounter with Qinglong. It was Qinglong who asked Yuanshi to take care of his descendant Huanglong and asked Tianzun to accept him as his disciple. In case something happened to him, it would also preserve the bloodline of Zulong."
According to Patriarch Bodhi, in the Longhan catastrophe of the Journey to the West world, Huanglong was the son of the Ancestral Dragon, while Qinglong was an ancestor of the dragon clan.
Different from Chen Zhu’s worldview, in his ancient world, Zulong is the true ancestor of all dragons, and Qinglong is also his child.
Since these two realms are different, there is not much reference value.
But Patriarch Bodhi still provided Chen Zhu with useful information.
"The Azure Dragon occupies the easternmost point. The east is the place of birth and development, the beginning of the Jia and Yi wood energy, and also the place where the sun is born. The one who is in charge is naturally unwilling to lag behind and is a person who is open and open."
"The Azure Dragon of my world disdains to use small tricks. You can also observe what kind of ability the Azure Dragon of your world has and what kind of authority he holds, and you can naturally get a glimpse of it."
In other words, no matter what kind of authority one holds, his character must have certain similarities with that authority.
Chen Zhu understood and said goodbye to the master.
"Will you stay a little longer?"
Patriarch Bodhi tried to persuade him to stay, saying, "Xiao Zhuming, you can spend some time cultivating your relationship with your fellow disciples when you have time."
Cultivate feelings?
Chen Zhu glanced towards the window and saw his fellow apprentices poking holes in the window paper with their fingers and peeking in.
"Well, I'm a little busy over there, so I'll take my leave now."
He fled away. Compared with Qinglong, the Sanxing Cave seemed to be more terrifying.
Returning to Shoushan Mountain, he subconsciously looked into the distance.
There was a young man over there, calling himself Long Qing, walking among the horned dragons and observing their practice.
"came back?"
Qinglong glanced at him and said:
"The Jingzhe Mansion in Qingshen Imperial City has been built, and you can go in at any time."
"Why are you telling me this? Tell our clan leader."
Chen Zhu picked up a piece of mud from the ground and sealed the tree hole.
He wants to be an ostrich.
At least he won't come out unless Long Qing leaves.
Let’s see who can outlast whom!
Anyway, he lived like this before, and he could get enough to eat even if he had to drink the northwest wind, so he didn't care about this little benefit.
"you……"
Seeing this, Long Qing smiled slightly, with the light in his eyes slightly brightening and dimming: "Alright, alright."
He turned and left: "Forget it, I have already walked my own path, otherwise this sun is really strong, there are still some possibilities in the future."
He went to find the young man and said something to him. Soon the young man respectfully saw him off.
There was sincere admiration and fear in his eyes.
Zhulong quietly pushed open the lid of the tree hole~
Look around and let Taohou go and see if that person is really gone.
"It's gone. It's actually in human form. It's the innate god!"
Taohou's eyes were filled with envy: "I wonder when I can transform into a human form, follow the Father God's appearance, and become an innate god."
"Innate God? You'd better forget it."
Chen Zhu sneered: "When the time comes, the Taiping Killer God will strike you with a sword and you will be dead."
"what?"
Taohou didn't know what the goal of the Great God of Taiping was, so Chen Zhu just mentioned a few words casually.
"hiss……"
Taohou was shocked, and at this moment his dream was cut short.
"Forget it, forget it. I'd better just practice the way of immortality honestly. Then the Sun Energy is very suitable for me."
Taohou looked solemn, and practiced under the true light of the sun every day.
However, the true energy of the sun is most suitable only for Chen Zhu and Qing Lao. For them, without the connection with the sun and the authority of immortals, the actual effect is much weaker.
Chen Zhu thought about it and thought that maybe he could find some better skills for the people around him. One can follow the innate divine path, and the immortal path as well; the two are not in conflict.
The emergence of the immortal way will undoubtedly raise the strength of the entire prehistoric world to a new level. Although they are all innate gods, those who have practiced the immortal way and those who have not will be at completely two different levels in the future.
This is the prehistoric world, getting stronger and stronger.
"We have arrived at Jingzhe Mansion!"
As Shoushan stopped, everyone saw the imperial city in the distance.
Jingzhe Mansion is a huge mansion with brilliant colored glaze and a green color.
The huge palace gate was looming in the clouds. Entering inside, there was another world with mountains, rivers and seas. Shoushan slowly fell into it and did not seem abrupt at all.
This is the outermost area of the imperial capital, but even though it is the outermost area, they are actually not qualified to come here.
Because of the magical power of Shoushan and Qing Lao's status, he was able to settle down in the imperial capital.
"A world within a world, the dragon race really has resources."
Taohou sighed, and just grabbed something on the ground and pulled out a few pieces of innate crystals.
"Fuck!"
He exclaimed, falling in love with Zhu Jiuyin's classic vocabulary.
They, the Taotie tribe, can only harvest a little bit after accumulating it over a long period of time, but here the innate crystals are so easily available?
The rich innate qi seemed to be turning into substance.
"What are you waiting for? Dig!"
Seeing this, Chen Zhu took out his gluttonous stomach and started to fill it, constantly digging on the ground. These were all good things, enough to make his strength advance by leaps and bounds.
After refining Qi and returning to emptiness, his body's capacity no longer has any limit. If he continues to absorb it forever, theoretically, he can accommodate the entire prehistoric Qi.
Of course, this is only in theory. The innate Qi, one Qi can transform into thousands of Qi, which is an endless and infinite source.
As he absorbs, the endless innate Qi derived from the ancient times will only increase.
But picking up the innate crystals would make you addicted!
"Xiao Zhuming, don't pick it up."
Finally, Qingying came and informed him, "Grandpa Qing asked us to attend the clan meeting."
Clan meeting?
After hearing this, Chen Zhu reluctantly left his body, leaving the 100,000 fake bodies to continue picking up the items.
This thing doesn't require any strength or brainpower. He will feel uncomfortable if it doesn't enter his pocket.
The clan meeting was at the edge of Shou Mountain. It was very lively at this moment. In addition to their Horned Dragon clan, the Lilong clan had also come.
Chen Zhu saw Li Yanwu, whom he had not seen for a long time.
The red flame of the Lilong on her body turned dark red, becoming more crystal clear, and her eyes were as fiery as fire.
The number of dragons in the entire ceratosaurus clan is also increasing rapidly, and now there are more than 100,000 of them.
In the central position, besides Old Qing, there was also the "uncle" Old Qing whom Chen Zhu had met before.
"Everyone, from today on, our Horned Dragon Clan will be officially renamed the Azure Dragon Clan and incorporated into the clan."
While Old Qing was speaking, he had just casually given the name of the horned dragon.
Qing Lao's mother is the god of spring thunder and birth, a beast with divine horns on its head.
The horns on the heads of the Ceratopsians are inherited from this.
Because of the various chaotic relationships among the dragon clan, there are various types of dragons, so they are very easy to identify.
Chen Zhu once thought about how he got this dark yellow color.
A yellow dragon and a black dragon?
That's not right. He remembered that when he was in the Zhulong clan, the colors of other dragons were different from his.
After Elder Qing finished speaking, he introduced his uncle who was standing beside him.
"This is my uncle, Long Yu, who has taken care of me since I was a child. He is also your great-grandfather. In the future, all the management and order of Jingzhe Mansion and all your studies will be in the hands of my uncle."
Long Yu smiled slightly and his eyes fell on everyone's faces.
"Children, the Imperial City is different from your previous place, where you are free from worries. There are many things you need to pay attention to and learn."
He once taught Qing Lao, and now he is also responsible for the entire Horned Dragon...
No, now they should be called the Qinglong of Jingzhe Mansion, or the Qinglong clan of Shoushan.
"Grandpa, what are we going to learn?"
Qing Xi asked: "How many days do you need to study?"
"How many days?"
Long Yu laughed, his eyes flickering, "It was several days."
……
……
"Today we have to learn how to walk. There are too many dragons in the imperial capital. If we wander around aimlessly, we will soon be detained by the imperial guards." In a pavilion, the unicorns sat cross-legged on cushions, dozing off, listening to Long Yu's story on the podium.
Long Yu was not in a hurry. He knew that these wild dragon children had lacked education since childhood, so it was normal for them to take some time.
Anyway, if you don’t learn these, you are not allowed to leave Jingzhe Palace.
But there was one dragon that was an exception.
Long Yu couldn't help but look at the candle dragon on the left side of the center of the pavilion.
That's a pretty common position.
This is Zhuming, the child blessed by Zulong.
He is also one of the most talented children in Jingzhe Mansion.
He is a student in class, but outside of class, he is treated as the master.
At this time, Zhulong was constantly using his dragon claws to carve on the pages of a book made of Shoushan copper, recording every word he said.
Of all the dragons, he is the hardest working.
This is very unusual. You know, the dragons blessed by the Zulong are all proud and basically will not listen to his lectures.
Just like Li Yanwu and Qingying on the other side, one was sleeping and the other was practicing.
I didn't listen to his words at all.
He was very satisfied with the child Zhuming, but unfortunately, he was not too obedient. His submissive character meant that he would not be able to compete with other dragons for resources in the future.
I would recommend you to join the Imperial Guard, you should be able to achieve some success there.
"Everyone, listen carefully. Each level of strength in this imperial capital determines how high you can fly. If you don't become a dragon king, you can only walk on the ground..."
Chen Zhu kept every word in his heart.
Even though these are just rules and regulations, listening to them makes Long want to sleep.
But he knew very well that these were the important basis for hiding safely.
Only when you fully understand these twists and turns can you do the most "unruly" thing within the rules.
Today we talk about walking, tomorrow we talk about speaking, and the day after tomorrow we talk about behavior.
Chen Zhu kept it in mind and wrote it down every day. Seven days later, when Grandpa Long Yuzu started to tell the story again, he understood it clearly.
After the lecture was over, Chen Zhu found Grandpa Long Yuzu alone.
"Grandpa, please wait a moment."
Chen Zhu held the Shoushan Bronze Book and asked the old dragon to stay.
He can be considered as the steward of Jingzhe Mansion.
"My Lord, what is the matter?"
Long Yu stopped, his eyes full of smiles.
He is willing to talk to such children and answer their questions.
"Just call me Xiao Zhuming."
Chen Zhu put on a "well-behaved" look on his face, opened the Shoushan Bronze Book and said, "I have some questions."
"For example, you said that if I get bullied, I can go find the Imperial Capital Dragon Guards, but you didn't say what would happen if I fought back?"
"Will it be considered a mutual fight?"
"If the other party strikes first, am I still responsible?"
"If the other party makes a move and I strike first, how should I judge it?"
"Also, if the other party attacks first but accidentally kills him, is there any punishment? If so, how severe will it be?"
When Long Yu heard these questions, he was shocked.
This is not something a little dragon could have thought of. This young master is very smart.
He looked formally at the golden copper page. There were large and small characters on it. There were a lot of words under each sentence, but he couldn't see them.
These are suspected to be the innate divine texts, words that only the innate gods can understand.
This surprised him again, one could even say it was horrified!
The innate divine text cannot be written by an ordinary dragon. He seems to have discovered a big secret!
"My Lord, please close it first."
Long Yu stretched out his hand to close the book, then took Chen Zhu to a secluded place and said seriously:
"Don't let other dragons see your writing."
"how?"
Chen Zhu still didn't understand, so Long Yu told him seriously: "If you are not an innate god, or you have an amazing opportunity, you can't understand the innate divine text."
He warned sternly: "If a dragon sees your innate divine text, you will be in big trouble."
These words made Chen Zhu's heart skip a beat!
He narrowed his eyes and subconsciously thought about how to kill this person.
But Long Yu swore to Father God: "Today, I, Long Yu, have not seen anything in the bronze book, and I will never reveal a single thing."
When he finished, he said:
"In the future, don't expose yourself again. Grandpa will personally teach you how to write dragon characters."
The dragon clan naturally has their own writing system. It is said that the dragon who created the dragon clan's writing system was also a descendant of the first generation of the ancestor dragon.
Chen Zhu felt ashamed when he heard this. He looked down on Grandpa Qing's uncle.
"Don't worry, my existence is to protect the emperor's grandson Qinglao, and now I am the steward of Jingzhe Mansion, so naturally I have to be responsible for you."
Long Yu smiled and said, "Next, I will explain to you how to deal with inequality."
Chen Zhu nodded with a look of respect on his face. Grandpa Long Yuzu was worthy of being a teacher, and he was all ears.
"Fight back!"
"what?"
Chen Zhu thought he had heard it wrong.
"Don't say that. You are the descendant of the emperor's grandson, the young lady of Jingzhe Mansion, and the dragon blessed by the Ancestral Dragon. Fight back. No matter what the result is, as long as you can win, the other party will suffer!"
Grandfather Long Yuzu told him the way of life in the imperial city:
"Fight if you can, run if you can't. The emperor's grandson did the same thing back then."
Long Yu seemed to recall the ancient times, with a smile on his face:
"That was before two immeasurable calamities, and the Imperial City was not as magnificent and wealthy as it is today. That's how the Emperor's grandson earned his name as the Little Tyrannosaurus Rex."
Chen Zhu understood, it was a continuation of the same tradition.
He then asked indirectly, "By the way, our Qingshen Imperial City is so prosperous, then how powerful should the Qinglong, the dragon ancestor of our Qinglong clan, be?"
“That’s not something we could imagine.”
Long Yu's eyes were full of respect: "He is the ancestor of our Azure Dragon. In my entire life, I have only seen him take action once."
Chen Zhu suppressed the gleam in his bright eyes and listened quietly.
"That day, a Xiantian God came to the Dragon Clan to ask for an explanation, and a proud member of the Azure Dragon Clan killed his offspring."
"That day, Qinglong said nothing and went straight into the Nine Abysses with the Xiantian God, and then tore into Zhoushan. Eight days later, he had killed the Xiantian God at the extreme of the Great Northern Classic!"
Eighth day?
Chen Zhu noted down this time. Killing the innate god in eight days proved his overwhelming strength.
"Who is that God?"
When he asked, Long Yu smiled and said, "Wait another hour, and what you will see is the incarnation of the Xiantian God after his death."
Long Yu kept the secret on purpose, looking extremely proud.
This happened when he was very young, so long ago.
An hour?
Chen Zhu looked outside. An hour later, the sun set and darkness spread.
Chen Zhu's pupils suddenly contracted!
Is Qinglong so scary...
But after a moment of thought, Chen Zhu felt relieved again. This was the descendant of the Ancestral Dragon, otherwise the dragon clan would not be so prosperous.
He became more and more fearful, but fortunately, the other party left.
In the following time, he learned dragon script from Grandpa Long Yuzu. Dragon script is a little difficult to recognize and easy to confuse. They are all in the shape of dragons, and even the slightest difference means two different things.
Also, it's not very logical.
For example, one is the dragon going straight.
But secondly, the dragon stretched out two claws.
And twenty means the dragon's four claws have twenty fingers...
It can be said that words are more like paintings and totems.
This made him so confused that he said to Father God in the dark that night:
"Father God, I, the candlelight, saw that the dragon script was complicated and incompatible with all things, so I wanted to create a script that is simple and clear, and can be understood at a glance."
He picked up the bronze book and planned to carve the Chinese character "天" first.
However, just as Chen Zhu moved his claws, he suddenly heard a sound of wind beside him.
He turned around in horror and saw Long Qing appearing without anyone noticing.
"stop."
Long Qing looked at Chen Zhu and said, "If you carve that word, many innate gods will work together to kill you."
He took the bronze book, and the bronze of Shoushan dissipated into nothingness in his hands.
“Some things cannot appear now.”
He stared at Chen Zhu and said, "I promised Taiping to take care of you. I can't let you die."
This sentence reveals even more.
While Chen Zhu was still in shock, Long Qing left without anyone noticing.
Did the other party notice something and come over to remind him, or was he just watching him?
He thought carefully again, why couldn't that word appear now?
With so many innate gods working together, what are they trying to stop?
There were too many problems, making Long nervous.
So Chen Zhu chose to go back to sleep, study Dragon Script diligently tomorrow, and then practice diligently.
Isn't it just that he is not allowed to create characters? Isn't it okay if he doesn't create them? It's not a big deal.
