Zhang Yuan immediately said:
“I feel like this mountainous landscape looks a bit like a dragon when viewed from the air.
At the location of the dragon head, there happens to be a large lake;
At the position of the dragon's claw, it seems as if the dragon is grabbing the tower with its claws, which is very strange.
Also, there is an altar in front of the tower, but it is quite low. At that time, it was completely hidden by the tall trees from a distance and was hard to see. Now I can see it. "
He Yingchun immediately said:
"Oh, it actually looks like a dragon from a high place. I'm not sure why. It seems that Qingyun Temple is indeed not simple.
See if you find anything else."
Zhang Yuan immediately said:
"Okay, then I'll take a look."
Next, Zhang Yuan not only looked down from the sky, but also flew down, flew around the tower, and flew around the tower.
Originally, he wanted to fly into the tower through its window to take a look, but the windows of the tower were sealed very tightly and he could not fly in, so Zhang Yuan had to give up.
Afterwards, he explored the surroundings and found that there were too many small animals in the restricted area of Qingyun Temple, and there were even large snakes roaming in the woods. If an ordinary person entered this place, the hope of survival would be almost zero. There would be no chance to leave the restricted area and they would be eaten by these ferocious animals in nature. This was not an exaggeration at all.
After flying around the tower and the altar for several circles, Zhang Yuan flew over the big lake again. When flying over the lake, Zhang Yuan could clearly feel that the spiritual power of the lake was very abundant, which was a little unbelievable.
The spiritual power is so strong that one can tell the difference with just a slight perception, especially for a strong man like Zhang Yuan, whose mental power is extremely strong. Even with the bat as a medium, he can still feel that the power contained in this lake is not simple.
So Zhang Yuan said to He Yingchun:
"I am now flying above the lake, right on the surface of the lake. I am very close to the lake and can clearly sense that this lake contains extremely strong spiritual power. Could this have something to do with the fact that this is a dragon vein?"
He Yingchun immediately said:
"Yes, it must be related to the dragon vein. The lake is located at the dragon head's position, so it must be able to gather a lot of spiritual power on a daily basis. It should be the spiritual power eruption point, so your perception there will be stronger.
Now you can fly in a circle along the dragon's terrain, from its head to its tail. If you sense it in detail, you should be able to tell the strength of its spiritual power. The dragon's tail is where its spiritual power is the weakest."
Zhang Yuan immediately said:
"Okay, I will follow this dragon vein and feel it carefully to see if there are any differences."
After saying a word to He Yingchun, Zhang Yuan did not hesitate and immediately controlled the bat to flap its wings and flew a circle from the dragon's head to the dragon's tail.
After flying this circle, Zhang Yuan's perception was still very clear. It was exactly as Yingchun said. The spiritual power contained in the position of the dragon head was very strong.
But when it flew to the dragon's tail, the spiritual power gradually faded. The spiritual power at the dragon's tail was almost the same as the spiritual power inside Qingyun Temple.
After a round of exploration, Zhang Yuan's forehead was already slightly sweaty.
This method of using witchcraft and powerful mental power to control living creatures like bats to help explore is very mentally exhausting. It is because Zhang Yuan's mental power is strong that he can withstand such a long period of control. If it were an ordinary person, he would be exhausted after flying a bat for two or three minutes, and would just want to fall asleep immediately.
However, it took Zhang Yuan more than 10 minutes to finish the investigation.
After finishing, Zhang Yuan sat for a long time, wiping the sweat off his face and taking a deep breath.
He Yingchun, who was standing by, immediately took out a white jade pill, handed it to Zhang Yuan and said:
"Hubby, you've worked so hard. Here, this is a White Jade Pill. Take it quickly. It will be of great help in restoring your energy."
Zhang Yuan smiled and waved his hand and said:
"The White Jade Pill is extremely precious. You spent a lot of effort to refine this pill. I am not at the point where I need to eat this kind of thing now.
Don't give it to me. Save it for later. Besides, you gave me two White Jade Pills last time, and I only used one. I still have the other one."
However, He Yingchun didn't say anything and directly stuffed the White Jade Pill into Zhang Yuan's mouth, saying affectionately:
"My dear husband, you are the most important to me. No matter how precious the White Jade Pill is, how precious can it be?
Besides, I have been refining White Jade Pills when I have nothing to do these years. This time when I came to Qingcheng, I brought more than 50 White Jade Pills with me. You can eat them without worry. You won’t go bankrupt.”
Zhang Yuan smiled when he heard what He Yingchun said, and nodded:
"In that case, I won't be polite. I'm going to eat it with confidence."
He Yingchun smiled and said:
"Eat quickly. You look so weak. I feel so bad for you. I can't bear to see you like this."
Zhang Yuan felt very warm in his heart and kissed He Yingchun on the spot.
Then he swallowed the pill peacefully and began to meditate. After about half an hour, Zhang Yuan completely absorbed the medicinal power of the White Jade Pill and looked much more energetic.
Seeing Zhang Yuan like this, He Yingchun smiled and said:
“That’s pretty close.
How is it, husband?
When you later explored along the dragon vein, did you discover anything new or unusual?"
Zhang Yuan immediately said:
"I didn't find anything new or unusual. Everything feels normal. Just like you said, the spiritual power of the dragon head is indeed much stronger than that of the dragon tail.
However, I am still somewhat curious about that big lake. I always feel that it is full of mysterious power, not just because of its rich spiritual energy.
There must be something else that I don't know about, but I haven't detected it yet."
He Yingchun listened to Zhang Yuan's words, thought about it and said:
"Hubby, I have to say, you are truly a genius.
Just now you were trying your best to investigate the situation in the restricted area, and there was something I didn't tell you.
That big lake is indeed very mysterious, because in a few days, the lake will completely disappear, and the things under the lake will be exposed. "
Zhang Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at He Yingchun curiously and said:
"No way. It's a bit too unrealistic to say that such a big lake can disappear just like that."
He Yingchun smiled and said:
"What's so mysterious about this? It will really disappear. The last time Qingyun watched the Dao Conference, it was held under that big lake.
At that time, Taoist Qingyun personally presided over the Taoist conference. I also attended it, so I knew a little about the situation.
That lake is amazing, and the spring water below must also be arranged with a formation, otherwise it wouldn’t be so obedient, disappearing when you tell it to disappear, and appearing when you tell it to appear.”
Zhang Yuan said in disbelief:
"This is really a little unbelievable. I didn't expect this lake to be so magical. Can you tell me what is under this lake?
Is it a big square? Or a temple? A pavilion? "
