As mentioned before, when the People's Republic of China was founded and the Four Olds were abolished, the heaven and earth collapsed, and the two realms of heaven and earth fell into chaos. Humanity flourished, and the underworld became autonomous. The immortals who had wandered on the ground at that time were able to survive, but because of the thin spiritual energy, their magic was no longer as advanced as in ancient times.
Whether it is cultivating immortality or practicing Taoism, it is difficult.
Even if there are demons, most of them are spirits that predate the founding of the People's Republic of China. They are usually small and clever, hiding in the deep mountains and forests. They are like weasels, foxes, etc.
The Taoists and monks present had all seen transformed demons, such as the one who shamelessly said he was with Lu Cijiu, so Master Ma, who was not cleared out during the clearing, was one of them. His job was to worship the family gods.
But this is the first time I've seen...
"Golden Eagle, this is the first time I've seen an eagle that has transformed into a demon."
"Assistant Gong is actually a eagle. I didn't even notice it just now. I wonder how much cultivation he has?"
"With a dragon that's at least five hundred years old, Brother Eagle, will you?"
These great monks and Taoists sighed and shook their heads with worry, clearly not optimistic about Gong Xichao's future. Regardless of what these experts thought, Sang Qi rushed out in the rain and looked up at the sky.
Everyone moved outside and looked up in unison.
There were rumbling flashes of lightning and thunder, and the clouds were gathering and rolling thickly, accompanied by a dragon's roar.
The sound was too loud, full of pressure and anger. Just a dragon was enough to make people tremble with fear. The residents around should have heard it. The sound could not be covered up even if they wanted to.
A fear that strikes deep within the soul.
The dragon was angry.
A Taoist priest shouted.
"Hey, this is a dragon, let's set up a formation."
"Yes, yes, how can a demon eagle defeat a dragon?"
"Alas, Kyoto is in trouble and in danger."
Lu Cijiu quickly interrupted: "Masters, don't talk about the eagle anymore. Who told you that this is an eagle?" If the eagle heard it, it would just deal with you first instead of the dragon.
"Ah? Isn't it a sculpture?"
"This is clearly it. Could it be Dapeng?" asked the Taoist priest.
It flashed so fast, and it was dark, that no one could tell what kind it was. The golden light before their eyes was blinding, but it was definitely a raptor. Regardless of what kind of raptor it was, it was difficult to deal with a dragon.
I don’t know if the eagle heard the people below calling him an eagle, and he didn’t knock out the dragon with one blow. He even angered the dragon. It roared angrily, and there were thunder and lightning, as if the sky was about to be pierced by a hole.
Whenever the high-ranking officials heard the roar of a dragon or thunder, they would sigh and lament how dangerous the golden eagle or golden roc was. And then the dragon in the sky was even more ferocious.
furious.
Lu Cijiu was also furious and shouted, "Everyone, if you say another eagle or roc, we won't be able to handle this dragon. Do whatever you want."
The onlookers: ...
"Th-What is that, Mr. Gong?"
"Kunpeng." Lu Cijiu slammed the word down. Thinking of Diao's pretentious nature, he added belatedly, "Ancient divine vein, four thousand eight hundred years old Kunpeng."
Everyone: ...are you kidding us about our history? How can a 4,800-year-old Kunpeng demon be so old?
Ma Daxian didn't believe it in his heart. These monsters all like to brag. He thought that the golden eagle was probably bragging as well. It was a bit like Kunpeng, leaning against the top of the mountain, looking so proud.
No one believed it, but now the eagle monster was fighting in the sky, and the safety of the people in Kyoto depended on this monster, so they just gave the eagle monster face and stopped talking about eagle or peng.
Lu Cijiu didn't care what others thought. He braved the heavy rain, raised his hands and shouted: "Come on, Brother Gong, you're awesome, Brother Gong." Even if this monster went to heaven, he would still be praised with flattery.
"Come on, Dalong, come on, Uncle Gong." The tail followed suit.
Dudu was still speaking incoherently, and the kittens were breathing slowly, but both of them tilted their necks, shielded their little hands from the rain, and looked up at the sky with sparkling eyes.
Boom——
Dragon roar.
If you listen carefully, you will find that amidst the angry dragon's roar, there is a clear and childish dragon cry. The dragon's voice is loud and furious, accompanied by thunder, but this voice can also be revealed.
"Is this, is there a dragon?"
The Taoist priests and monks looked at each other, knowing from each other's eyes that they had heard correctly.
There are actually two dragons.
Lu Cijiu opened his mouth and said, "I guess I heard it wrong. I guess it was the sound of the dragon splitting its legs and echoing."
Stop playing.
"Brother Gong, it's raining so hard. Can you finish work early and go back for dinner?" Lu Cijiu asked in a hoarse voice.
Dudu touched his belly and said, "I'm hungry."
I haven’t had lunch yet.
Boom——
The dragon's mournful cry——
At the same time, the accumulated dark clouds were covered in layers, and a larger shadow covered the entire sky, with dazzling golden light leaking out from the edge. The next moment, a long black object fell from the sky and landed on the ground with a thud.
The rain has stopped.
The golden light and the shadow covering the sky shrank and retracted.
Gong Xichao stood aside, with Dalong sitting on his neck. He seemed to have not had enough fun yet, with a bright smile on his face. He proudly sought praise and said loudly: "Jiujiu, I'm so awesome, did you see that?"
"..." He only heard the baby dragon's voice. But of course he couldn't tell her that, or she would cry. Lu Cijiu said seriously, "I saw it, the golden light flashing, and your figure."
Gong Xichao glanced at Lu Cijiu with a cold face.
Lu Cijiu is talking nonsense again. He is blocking the dragon. If you want to see something, you should see his heroic figure first. How can you see the dragon!
"Of course, the most awesome one is Uncle Gong. Let's applaud!" Lu Cijiu started clapping and applauded. He was talking to the kids, but the Taoist priests and monks next to them also joined in the clapping.
The scene was a bit silly for a moment.
But the Taoist priest and the monk did not feel it. Instead, they were excited and looked at Gong Xichao in disbelief. This, a carving monster, could actually knock down the dragon so quickly. The dragon must be at least five hundred years old, so how old is this carving monster?
Thinking back to the enormous, cloud-covering golden light just now, could this eagle monster really be Kunpeng? But Kunpeng is a great monster from ancient times, and where are the remains of Kunpeng in today's society?
Everyone had a lot of thoughts in their minds, but because the truth was too unbelievable, they didn't believe Lu Cijiu to give a real answer. Their minds were confused and they were full of guesses.
"Is this the dragon?" asked a Taoist priest, looking at the ground.
The dragon on the ground is now a black snake, more than one meter long and as thick as an arm. Its skin and flesh are torn apart, blood is gushing out, and it looks half-dead. When questioned by the Taoist priest, it raised its head stubbornly, spit out its tongue and hissed threateningly.
Then he was kicked down by Gong Xichao.
snake:……
"I wanted to kill him directly." Gong Xichao said this and looked at Lu Cijiu, "You handle it."
Lu Cijiu: ...He can handle nothing.
But I felt a little comforted in my heart. Diao Zong had grown a little more mature from a middle school boy who loved fighting and killing. He knew that he had to hand the fight over to adults afterward.
This dragon is still a dragon after all, and the Chinese people worship dragons very much. Lu Cijiu thinks that they may not kill it.
As expected, Officer Sang Qi said: "This dragon will be sent to the army first, and several masters will guard it first." What happens next will have to be reported to the higher-ups.
"It's not a dragon. My uncle beat it so hard that it only has a hundred years of Taoism left." Dalong said happily.
Gong Xichao said confidently, "I told you I was going to kill you, but I left you a breath."
Lu Bijiu:???
In other words, this dragon practiced for more than 500 years and finally transformed into a dragon. However, because it was too proud, it only showed off for a few hours before it was defeated and returned to the pre-liberation era.
Snake: ...I can’t lift my head.
There was no need to ask for instructions from above. To be on the safe side, the Taoist priests used talisman paper to seal the snake in a cage. Sang Qi was to guard it first. The remaining issues still needed to be reported. How would we cover up what happened tonight?
He looked at Lu Cijiugong Xichao seriously and said, "You two, please do not leave Beijing for the time being."
"How long will it take? We still need to water our vegetable garden." Lu Cijiu asked politely.
Gong Xichao said coldly: "If you want to leave, let's leave now. I'll see who dares to stop me."
Lu Cijiu: ...You just finished praising me and you’re acting like a middle school student again, right?
"Don't misunderstand, we don't want to put you under house arrest. There are just some issues that need to be discussed. Don't worry, Mr. Lu, we will give you an answer as soon as possible." Sang Qi said.
Lu Cijiu had never dealt with the authorities before, but after some thought, he decided to stay and see how things went. He had considered this issue when he first took the job, and he had considered the worst-case scenario. He had no parents, and his grandfather was deceased, so it didn't matter if his family wandered around with Boss Diao.
But it would be great to have good relations with the authorities.
When the kids go to school in the future, if something like what happened today happens again, it will be better for Boss Diao to take action and have official help to cover it up than for him to do it alone.
"I'll send a car to pick you up," said Sanzi.
Lu Cijiu didn't refuse. If the other person wanted to know the address, he would have already found it. He thanked him for his kindness.
The dragon issue has been resolved, but there are still many follow-up issues. There has been a lot of buzz on Weibo, with people saying that a dragon appeared, and there was also the dragon roar just now, etc., and an official explanation must be given.
After the polite conversation, Sanqi had other things to do, so he left first.
It was delivered by a military jeep and the journey was smooth.
We took off the raincoats for the kids as we got on the road. The children's version was a bit big, and the hood covered most of the kids' faces. It was made of plastic, and after covering it for a while, the kids were all sweaty.
Tail's hair was wet, and he had just shouted "Come on!" the loudest. His bangs were sticking to his cheeks, blocking his eyes. Lu Cijiu wiped them with a tissue and said, "Your hair has grown long. Let's cut it tomorrow."
"Okay." Wei Ba nodded obediently and touched Hu Sanniang in his arms.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Lu Cijiu felt like Hu Sanniang had gotten smaller. She was shivering. He couldn't help but reach out, "Are you cold?"
As a result, Hu Sanniang's short legs reflexively shrank back, leaving Lu Cijushou awkwardly standing there. Gong Xichao, who was sitting next to him, gave Hu Sanniang a cold look.
Lu Cijiu saw Hu Sanniang's short legs shaking like Parkinson's disease, and she slowly put them into his hands, with a desperate look on her fox face saying "I'll just die".
???
"Are you afraid of Gong Xichao?" Lu Cijiu came to his senses, patted Hu Sanniang's head, and said, "Don't worry, as long as you don't cause trouble and harm us, Brother Gong won't beat you to death."
Hu Sanniang immediately called out obediently, acting like a doll, held by its tail, with an expression that said, "I'm a toy, I'm very obedient, and I won't mess around with anything."
When we were almost at the hotel, Lu Cijiu realized that something was missing.
"By the way, have you found Dou Qinglan?"
Found it.
The moment Gong Xichao pressed the dragon against the sky and rubbed it, causing it to fall, the spell cast by Dou Qinglan and the other two was broken. The three of them remained in an alley not far away, drenched in rain for over an hour, passersby passing by as if they were oblivious.
When the three of them woke up, they were shivering with cold. Their phones were soaked in water and couldn't be turned on. They finally found someone and borrowed their phone, but they haven't returned to the hotel yet.
The director is on the way to pick someone up.
Hearing Dou Qinglan's bleak tone on the phone, Lu Cijiu said, "As long as everyone is safe, let's not talk about it for now. Come back soon."
Dou Qinglan heard something and wrapped himself in a towel, refusing to join in any gossip. Seeing this, the other two also kept silent about what had happened.
There was a bathtub in the hotel, so Lu Cijiu took a hot bath and put all four cubs in.
As soon as it entered the water, Dalong's legs turned into a tender yellow dragon tail. Tail King immediately burst into tears and said, "Dalong, you are so beautiful!"
"It's not that I'm beautiful, it's that I'm majestic." Dalong's little face was reserved and proud.
Tail happily changed his tone: "It's beautiful, majestic and very nice."
The dragon immediately showed his white teeth and said happily, "When I was in the sky, my tail felt itchy and I made it. I'll let you see it and touch it."
The little yellow dragon's tail is half a meter long, tender goose yellow, and very cute.
Lu Cijiu couldn't help but think of the childish sound of the dragon's roar.
Quite suitable for Baron.
The big dragon was very generous in letting everyone admire his tail. Maybe he had just fought a battle and was still excited. He was a little naughty tonight, swinging his tail and splashing water. The other three were infected by it, giggling, and the hot water splashed on their faces. They pulled their little hands into the water and splashed water on each other.
The kids were so naughty that Lu Cijiu didn't stop them.
Wait until the water temperature cools down, then pick them up one by one and clean them.
"Chirp, the dragon's tail needs to be oiled." The big dragon said while shaking its tail.
Lu Cijiu: ...Who did you learn this love of beauty from?
"OK."
After applying skin care oil to the dragon's tail, Lu Cijiu saw a dragon for the first time. Logically, he should have been excited, shocked, and excited. But maybe the big dragon was too cute, especially the little naughty baby dragon, so Lu Cijiu didn't have those emotions. He continued to apply skin care oil to the cubs and carried them to bed one by one, smelling fragrant.
"It's been very late tonight, go to bed nicely."
Lu Bids farewell to the old and kisses each child.
"Jiujiu, can you oil the fur? I want to be beautiful too." Tail asked.
The round, plump grape's eyes widened.
No matter how young a girl is, she still loves beauty. But her hair hasn't grown out yet.
The three of them are so conceited, but the kitten is the only one that has fallen asleep.
Lu Ci is an old straight man. He used to be not particular about wiping his face, but Dabao took care of it. He didn’t use conditioner when washing his hair. But when he met two expectant eyes, he said, “Let me see later.”
Actually, I can ask Hu Sanniang about my achievements. But it's getting late, so I'll talk about it tomorrow.
After Lu Cijiu finished coaxing the baby, he returned to the master bedroom. The bathroom light was still on, but there was no one in the room.
The cubs played with the water hose, wiping their faces and bodies, and blowing their hair, especially their five tails. It’s been almost two hours, and Mr. Diao hasn’t come out of the bathroom yet?
You won’t get hurt, right?
Lu Cijiu thought about this and became a little worried. Boss Diao was so concerned about his reputation that if he was really injured, he would definitely seek treatment in secret. That wouldn't do.
He tried the handle and found the door was not locked, so Lu Cijiu went in.
In the bathtub, Gong Xichao was lying on a human body, covered in golden feathers. She was holding a shell-shaped object in one hand and a brush dipped in the paste from the shell in the other hand. She began to brush the feathers one by one, and had already reached her feet.
I don’t know if it’s the indoor lighting or the paste that’s been painted, the golden light is so bright that it can blind the eyes of those passing by.
If this feather falls off, it can be used as a gold flake.
Too gold.
This sculpture is obviously valuable. This thought popped into Lu Cijiu's mind.
Gong Xichao was so focused on brushing that he didn't notice Lu Cijiu coming in. After brushing the last piece and putting away the paste tool, he glanced at Lu Cijiu. His feathers trembled, but he quickly forced himself to calm down and put on a posture that covered the key parts while showing off his beautiful wings.
Lu Cijiu: ...the corners of his mouth twitched.
Mr. Diao, you are showing off too obviously.
He had heard a lecture at the zoo that said male birds care a lot about their feathers. In the bird world, they rely on their shiny, bright and beautiful feathers to attract females.
The eagle transformed into a human form, and was essentially Kunpeng, so of course he had some habits.
Lu Cijiu completely understood, it would be useless even if you showed off to me.
He's not a female bird.
"Wow, Brother Gong, your feathers are so beautiful." Lu Cijiu praised it and that was it.
As expected, the eagle said modestly, "It has just been rained on. It would have been more beautiful in the past."
Lu Cijiu:...Do you think I didn’t see you applying skin care products to Feather?
"Yes, I've seen it before, but it was too dark and I didn't look closely."
"You still want to take a closer look?"
Mr. Diao's face seemed a little red. "Why bother?" Lu Cijiu thought proudly, giving Mr. Diao a break and saying, "Let's do it another day. It's too late today."
Gong Xichao felt a little regretful and said, "Then let's do it another day."
Then she shook her feathers and turned into a human form. She was wearing a white robe and had long hair draped over her shoulders. She was shining with "refinement" and was incredibly beautiful. Even Lu Cijiu, who had been immune to seeing things for a long time, was a little dazzled.
When Gong Xichao saw Lu Cijiu's infatuated and admiring gaze, his heart was as happy as fireworks exploding. He pretended to be calm on the surface and walked out leisurely.
Lu Cijiu took a quick shower in the fragrant bathroom, wiped Dabao clean, and went straight back to the bedroom. His phone rang, and it was Dou Qinglan calling.
"Brother Lu, are you there? Do you have time? This is so scary tonight. Can I sleep at your place?"
Before Lu Cijiu could reply, Gong Xichao said over the phone, "No, he won't even sleep under the bed."
"..." Why would Dou Qinglan sleep under the bed? Lu Cijiu's train of thought was diverted, and he quickly straightened up and said, "Sleeping there is no way. There is no place. If you are scared, come here and I will give you a talisman."
"Oh well, thank you, Brother Lu. I'll be there soon."
Gong Xichao looked unhappy, "It's late at night and we need to go to bed. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Brother, you are so awesome, you don't have to be afraid. You go to sleep first, I will take a look at the beans." Lu Cijiu said casually.
Gong Xichao became even more unhappy. Thinking of the TV series he had watched, he got up from the bed, put on his clothes, and stared warily at Dou Qinglan who had come over and sat on the sofa in the living room.
"?" Lu Cijiu gave him a puzzled look.
"Let me see if he is a green tea." Gong Xichao said directly.
Lu Cijiu: ...What kind of messed up TV do you watch every day?
Dou Qinglan was listless, but his will to survive told him he had to answer. He pulled himself together and said, "Brother Gong, I'm not. I'm just scared and want to talk to Brother Lu about something. I won't do anything to you, don't worry."
"It smells like green tea." Gong Xichao was even more worried. He sat directly on the sofa and stared at Lu Cijiu. "I'll watch, you guys tell me."
Lu Bijiu: ...
Dou Qinglan thought back to what he had just said, and it seemed to have a green smell. This is not important, so he quickly got down to business. "Luckily, Brother Lu, your amulet is here. I was almost scared to death today."
It turned out that a few of them were filming today and were discovered by fans, and the road was also jammed with traffic.
There were so many people that the three of them hid in an alley, waiting for the driver to pick them up. A man dressed in black stopped them. "...Sister Wei thought he was a perverted fan, but Brother Lu, you don't know, that man's eyes were terrifying, cold and poisonous."
Regarding this description, Lu Cijiu said calmly: "I know, I often get stared at with cold eyes."
Gong Xichao was staring at Dou Qinglan coldly.
"Are you cold now?" Lu Cijiu asked Dou Qinglan.
Dou Qinglan nodded repeatedly, "Brother Lu, how do you know everything? As soon as I entered the room, there was a cold atmosphere. Is there something wrong with this house?"
"...There's a ghost." Lu Cijiu cursed, but seeing Dou Qinglan's dejected look, he probably got really scared today, so he said, "Brother Gong, please calm down a bit."
Gong Xichao lazily changed his legs, crossed them together, very elegantly, and said generously: "Continue."
Dou Qinglan's mind was buzzing. It took him a while to realize that Brother Gong disliked his green tea taste. He must have misunderstood that he wanted to hook up with Brother Lu. How could this be possible? It wasn't like he was tired of living.
"He stopped us and asked, 'Do you think I look like a dragon?' He was like a psychopath. We politely told him to get out of the way, but he grabbed Sister Wei with such force that we couldn't get rid of him. He kept asking us if we looked like dragons, and his eyes became increasingly terrifying, as if he wanted to kill us. He was incredibly impatient."
"Later, Sister Wei perfunctorily said, 'Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah,' and the man let go of Sister Wei. We tried to run, but he laughed heartily and turned into a black dragon. Thunder and rain immediately broke out in the sky, and the black dragon came over, opening its mouth wide as if to eat Sister Wei."
At that time, Dou Qinglan instinctively stood in front of Duan Wei. The black dragon's claws grabbed him, and his chest felt hot and painful. Then the black dragon soared into the sky.
After the rain stopped, the three regained consciousness. Dou Qinglan felt a burning pain in his chest. It was the amulet given to him by Brother Lu. It had been soaked and rotten, but it could be seen that it had turned black.
"Brother Lu, is that a dragon?"
"No, it's a Jiao. The snake has been cultivating for five hundred years. Duan Wei should be the one he wants to be honored. He asked if she looked like a dragon. If Duan Wei said yes, then the honor was granted."
After successfully asking for a title, they will transform into a dragon and need to go through another thunder tribulation. After all, becoming a true dragon is not something that can be achieved by simply asking humans for a title. Like a carp leaping over the dragon gate or a snake shedding its true dragon shell, both are extremely difficult.
Later, Lu Cijiu asked Boss Diao, and when they arrived, the dragon had already survived the thunder tribulation. After all, it was just a dragon, and it was not necessary to bring down the nine-fold thunder on the dragon.
After successfully surviving the tribulation, Jiao began to become arrogant and wanted to stir up trouble and gain status.
Who knew he would run into Gong Xichao, such a tough guy.
And from what Dou Qinglan said, that dragon doesn't seem to be of the right path. After successfully getting the title, it even wants to kill Duan Wei.
After persuading Dou Qinglan for a few words, Lu Cijiu gave him two more amulets and sent him out.
It's impossible to sleep here, Boss Diao is watching us.
After closing the door, Lu Cijiu asked curiously, "Brother Gong, did you realize that the black dragon was evil, and that's why you beat it down to only a hundred years of cultivation?"
Gong Xichao said confidently, "It's so ugly and black, so we just kill it. Why bother talking about good and evil?"
"..." Lu Cijiu was silent for a moment, then said, "Gong Jinling, from now on, you must do good things for me, speak good words to me, and have good intentions."
Please call me Lu Sanhao.
