According to the ancient Chinese book "Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Great Wilderness North Classic", Zhulong is the god of Zhangwei Mountain. He has a human face and a snake's body. He is red all over and his body is a thousand miles long.
In some myths and legends, Zhulong is also known as Zhuyin, Zhujiuyin, Zhulong, and Huojing. When its eyes are open, it is daytime; when its eyes are closed, it is nighttime.
"Teacher, this girl named Yuan You said... huh?"
Shen Qian originally intended to bring up Yuan You's "fantasy manifestation" explanation and ask the experts for their high evaluation, but when he turned his head, he found that Dao Jiu and Yuan You were not even looking at the two of them.
They stood there quietly, still in shock at the appearance of the Candle Dragon, seemingly oblivious to the presence of the powerful figure.
"Teacher, they..."
"I blocked myself," Gao Wenyuan explained simply.
"Oh." Shen Qian was already used to Gao's abilities and wasn't surprised. He composed himself and repeated Yuan You's statement, "Teacher, is this true?"
"Have you ever considered that perhaps someone actually saw them a long time ago and then turned them into legends or stories?"
After listening, Gao Wenyuan smiled calmly and asked in return.
"this……"
Shen Qian was stunned.
He had never actually thought about it from that perspective.
This is actually like the question of whether myths or legends came first.
"That's just one way of putting it. What I really want to tell you is that you don't need to worry too much about these issues. The important thing is that they do exist, isn't it?" Gao Wenyuan said with a gentle smile.
"I see."
Shen Qian couldn't help but ask again, "Teacher, what realm is Zhulong...?"
"It's been a long time since I've dealt with it, but judging from that 'snake curse' just now, it might only be half a step away from transcending kings and nobles."
Gao Wenyuan said thoughtfully.
Half a step... beyond the realm of kings and nobles?
These six words seem simple, but they contain a great deal of information, leaving Shen Qian somewhat lost in thought.
In other words, Zhulong was actually still within the realm of kings and nobles?
Are kings and nobles... no, that's not right, or rather, are top-tier kings and nobles really this outrageous?
Mountains and seas are like infants before it, utterly powerless to resist; the difference between them is immeasurable.
Teacher, who is stronger, you or it?
Shen hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't ask the question.
His main concern was that if a powerful figure couldn't defeat Zhulong, it would be awkward to ask such a question.
"Just go straight back to Jingcheng. Also, try to change your habit of flirting with women everywhere... Of course, if you don't mind the trouble, then disregard what I said."
While Shen Qian was lost in thought, the big boss Gao Hu said softly.
By the time Shen Qian realized what was happening, Boss Gao had already vanished from the spot, nowhere to be found.
He felt somewhat unwilling before sinking in; he hadn't even had a chance to ask why so many White Walkers had appeared.
Or perhaps Gao is deliberately avoiding this issue.
Then, thinking of the "advice" from the elder brother Gao, Chen Qian felt a little embarrassed and a tiny bit resentful.
He glanced at Yuan You and muttered, "This isn't something I provoked, is it? She came to me on her own."
"Shenqian, let's go back quickly."
Yuan You walked over and said.
She seemed completely unaware of what Shen Qian had just been doing.
"Um."
He nodded before sinking.
This trip out of the city with the Dark Star team didn't significantly improve my cultivation level, but I still gained quite a bit.
Most importantly, Shen Qian personally witnessed the figure of "Zhulong".
He vaguely felt that this was a very important moment, but he didn't understand why it was important.
Although the wind and snow still existed and would not dissipate in a short time, the inexplicable and strange binding force within them had disappeared, and the circulation of vital energy within Shen Qian's body had returned to normal.
The three of them sped towards Jingcheng along the route they had come from.
When passing by Xiaowang Village again, Shen Qian suddenly paused.
"What's wrong?"
Yuan You cast a questioning glance at her.
Shen Qian didn't speak, but his right foot, which was in the snow, moved again. Then Shen Qian bent down and explored the snow. Soon, when Shen Qian took his hand out again, he directly grabbed a long black shadow.
"ah!"
Yuan You first exclaimed in surprise, but then realized there was no danger. She stared intently, and the surprise in her eyes only increased.
What Shen Qian held in his hand was a candle snake.
However, its body was already stiff, indicating that it had been dead for some time.
Shen Qian first put the captured Candle Snake corpse aside, then seemed to realize something. He called Dao Jiu to help, and the two of them searched the area full of ravines.
Two, three... In just half an hour, the two of them found more than twenty candelabra corpses in the snow.
"This, this..."
Yuan You was deeply shocked.
Although the candle snakes look very similar, their sheer number suggests that this group of dead candle snakes is likely the same group that the group had encountered earlier.
For some unknown reason, they all died here.
"They look like they froze to death... White Walkers... Candle Serpent, Candle Dragon... I see!"
A thought struck Shen Qian, and he finally realized the truth.
No wonder that Candle Dragon looked like it was just passing by, yet it lowered its head and destroyed all the Others.
The names Zhulong and Zhushe are somewhat similar. Could this mean that they might be related by blood or have some kind of ethnic connection?
If that's the case, then it makes sense.
The Others who appeared here froze all the Candle Snakes to death by some strange means, which angered their ancestor, who then wiped them out.
