Chapter 74: Not Hard, But Hard Life
"Junior Sister Jiang Jiu, I didn't expect that I would find you first!"
Surprise flashed in Long Xuan's eyes. He was standing not far away from the dense jungle.
Jiang Jiu glanced at the little coal ball behind him, and Xiao Nianzhong hid reluctantly. They had made three rules in the desert before: he could stay, but he couldn't cause trouble for her.
For example, as a demon god, he must never appear in front of her fellow disciples.
"Where are the others?"
Jiang Jiu didn't expect to meet Long Xuan just after leaving the desert, but she couldn't pretend not to know Long Xuan, so she approached and asked lightly.
"Junior sister is the first companion I met after entering the secret realm."
Long Xuan touched his nose a little embarrassedly, fearing that he was thrown out by the turbulence of time and space just like Jiang Jiu.
Jiang Jiu would passively become silent when meeting people, but fortunately Long Xuan was more talkative, so the atmosphere didn't become awkward even though they were the only two traveling together.
Of course, Xiao Nianzhong is not included, and he doesn't speak.
According to the results of Xiao Nian's detection, the distance to the monster city is probably just through this jungle, but Jiang Jiu has not yet realized that this is the place where she has walked through the plot.
It is also closely related to Long Xuan who is beside him.
As the two of them went deeper, Jiang Jiu felt an ominous premonition in his heart. Long Xuan, who had been talking the whole time, also became inexplicably quiet, looking around with a serious expression.
"?"
Jiang Jiu also noticed that something was wrong with Long Xuan, so he turned and looked at him with an inquiring expression.
"Junior Sister Jiang Jiu, can you keep the following matters a secret for me?"
He suddenly turned his head seriously, which startled Jiang Jiuxin.
"What is it?"
While Jiang Jiu was speaking, he had already found an escape route. Could it be some secret of the dragon clan?
“Actually, I…”
Before Long Xuan could finish his words, Jiang Jiu interrupted him without hesitation. She knew that this was rude, but it was her survival instinct that was at work.
"You don't have to tell me any secrets you have."
After Jiang Jiu finished speaking, Long Xuan seemed to have no intention of continuing.
The air was filled with awkwardness, but Jiang Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had escaped a disaster.
As expected, she should have treated Fo Jiang like this last time, then Yu Zimo would not have haunted her afterwards.
Unexpectedly, Long Xuan tilted his head and uttered a few words softly, which made Jiang Jiu feel as if he was falling into an ice cellar.
"Hasn't Junior Sister seen this before?"
The ginger wine makes me numb, really numb.
One after another did this to her, first Xiao Nianzhong, then Long Xuan, how could she still live like this?
“…”
Jiang Jiu remained silent, so Long Xuan knew who knocked him out that night. Was it her?
"It doesn't matter if Junior Sister doesn't admit it. The Dragon Clan has a secret method of traveling back in time and space. We'll know once we investigate."
Long Xuan shrugged. He looked like a playboy, but in Jiang Jiu's eyes he looked as bad as a dandy.
"so?"
Jiang Jiu was not that panicked. Long Xuan was born not long ago and was not much older than her. He was much easier to deal with than those thousand-year-old monsters.
At worst, I can swear to heaven and earth that I will never tell anyone.
Apologize to the unfortunate child and say that she didn't mean it that day.
"Thank you, Junior Sister, for accompanying me to visit our clan's secret treasure."
Long Xuan has red lips and white teeth, and a delicate but slightly childish face. His tone and expression are very innocent, just like a young man in fine clothes and riding a horse, full of vigor and vitality and attracting admiration.
“It’s not hard work, it’s a hard life.”
Jiang Jiu couldn't help but complain. Since he said so, he didn't give her the right to refuse.
The Dragon Prince is not to be trifled with.
Thinking back to when the Third Dragon Prince Ao Bing had his tendons pulled out, he had the support of the Dragon King of the East Sea and almost flooded the entire Chentang Pass. Jiang Jiu thought that he did not have the courage to commit suicide like Nezha, so he decided to just be a tool.
"I will give Junior Sister Jiang Jiu enough compensation. How can her life be so hard?"
Long Xuan felt a little aggrieved.
"You're both right."
Jiang Jiu said perfunctorily.
...
More and more dragon totems appeared in the depths of the dense forest. Logically, many people should have noticed the abnormality, but because no one had the token, no one had opened it yet.
I don’t know how that evil cultivator got that token.
"Junior sister, step back carefully."
Before Long Xuan opened the secret treasure, he deliberately protected Jiang Jiu behind him. The dragon clan has many ways to defend against foreign enemies, but they will not harm their own clansmen. However, Jiang Jiu is not a dragon.
Jiang Jiu was very concerned about his life, so he took several steps back without Long Xuan telling him to.
The huge bronze dragon statues on both sides began to rotate, and the spherical dragon holding a jade ball in the center emitted light. A small beam of light used to identify blood hit Long Xuan, and after a while, a buzzing sound came from inside.
It should be that the bloodline authentication was successful and the secret treasure is about to be opened.
"Let's go."
Long Xuan couldn't help but smile. He had originally escaped from the dragon clan's territory and ran to the world of cultivation to play. He didn't expect to encounter the former territory of his fellow clansmen, and maybe even meet a living one of his fellow clansmen.
Jiang Jiu cast a pitying look at him. Did this silly kid think there was a living dragon inside?
It is estimated that as soon as they go in, there will be dragon corpses everywhere. If they are not stored properly and the air circulation is too poor, dragon corpse poisonous gas may be produced. Then both the man and the dragon will be in big trouble.
However, real dragon bones have always been precious. If they were left outside, those cultivators would probably have to wrap themselves up like dumplings to go in and take them out.
"Um."
Jiang Jiu followed him in, and what caught his eyes was a huge palace and gold and silver all over the ground, which almost blinded Jiang Jiu.
But it is understandable that dragons naturally like shiny things, and shiny things are basically equivalent to gold, silver and jewelry.
Long Xuan was no exception. Jiang Jiu had already seen him swallowing his saliva.
Compared to Yu Zimo's unusual hobby of making incense, liking money is relatively normal.
Why do we say he is different from ordinary people?
Of course, the raw materials he used to make incense were rather strange. There was basically nothing normal, and he didn't even let go of the dead.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jiu suddenly realized something.
etc....
Could it be that the box of calming incense in her Qiankun ring was made by him using some strange stuff?
While Jiang Jiu was daydreaming, Long Xuan had already begun to examine this secret treasure. He forced himself to look away, suppressed the urge to move all these sparkling treasures back to Chaoxue, and began to explore this huge palace.
Dragons are relatively large in size, so it is normal to build a larger palace.
After a while, Jiang Jiu saw Long Xuan waving at her and shouting for her to come over.
"Junior sister, there is an altar here."
As Jiang Jiu got closer, the full view of the altar was exposed to his eyes.
The hexagonal altar has priceless holy crystals placed in each corner and is entirely enveloped by a transparent defensive barrier. This is the teleportation altar that the dragon clan has long lost.
Generally, when you open it, you can be directly transported to the real treasure house where the treasures are stored.
