I looked at the drop of liquid in my hand and thought about the number of terracotta warriors in the cave. I was really excited. But after my excitement subsided, I immediately thought of something.
When Han Wennan had interrupted me in the cave, it was obvious that he wanted to swallow the true dragon vein. Although he was also a member of the Metaphysics Society, he represented the Han family in Qinling Mountains. That was why he wouldn't tell the Metaphysics Society but the Han family.
Since I had a good impression of Han Wennan and the true dragon vein wasn't attractive to me, I was happy to do him a favor.
However, it was possible that the Han family would send a Celestial Master here. When I told him about the true dragon vein in the Fire God Temple, Grandpa Li had gone there personally. With the true dragon vein's value, it wasn't strange for the Han family's Celestial Master to come here personally.
The problem was that my witchcraft energy couldn't hide from the Celestial Master. I didn't dare to meet any Celestial Master.
At that time, I wouldn't be able to protect myself, let alone go to the cave to get the mysterious liquid. What should I do?
I couldn't help but smile wryly. When I was in the cave, I didn't think much about it. Now that I thought about it, I had dug a hole to bury myself.
If I had known this earlier, I would have thought of a way to confuse Han Wennan in the cave so that he wouldn't know that it was the true dragon vein.
After thinking for a long time, I couldn't find a solution to this problem. The only thing I could do now was to persuade Han Wennan and the others to go down there one more time before the Heavenly Master of the Han family arrived. I would use this chance to get more of this mysterious liquid.
Of course, there was another risky solution. I would have to discuss with Han Wennan. I promised that I wouldn't divulge the true dragon vein's information to him.
However, if the Han family's Celestial Master came, it would be like asking a tiger for its skin. There was a high chance that the tiger would eat me.
The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became. I decided to take one step at a time. I would find a chance to go down there and get enough liquid. If I couldn't, I would consider whether I should take the risk or not.
After thinking it through, I found a glass bottle and prepared to put the drop of liquid inside.
While I was putting it in, I suddenly remembered the snake spirit.
During this period of time, this fellow has been living in my body, using my blood to nourish itself and prepare to transform into a dragon.
Back then, he said that to transform into a dragon, he needed the blood of a True Dragon, which was the blood of someone like me who had swallowed the Saliva of the True Dragon. Logically speaking, he needed my blood to obtain the power of the Saliva of the True Dragon. Then, would this liquid that contained the power of the Saliva of the True Dragon be useful to him?
With this thought, I hurried to take off my clothes and summoned the spirit snake.
This fellow had a lazy temperament, but he was very diligent in his dragon transformation cultivation. Ever since he had possessed my body, he had been desperately absorbing the power in my blood every day. He was very diligent. Now that I had called him out, he had an unwilling expression on his face. He impatiently asked, "Why did you call me Grandpa Snake Immortal?
Grandpa Snake Immortal is busy, I don't have time to play with a little kid like you. "
Then, he circled around in front of me, ready to go back.
I was instantly annoyed. This fellow was the type that would tear the roof tiles if he wasn't beaten for three days. It was fortunate that Tong Tong hadn't woken up yet. Otherwise, I might have gotten Tong Tong to teach him a lesson.
I didn't stop him, but raised the liquid in my hand and asked him, "Do you want the Saliva of the True Dragon?"
The spirit snake, who had floated behind me, was stunned. Then, he returned in front of me and stared at the drop of liquid with his large eyes. He asked with a trembling voice, "What did you say?
Saliva of the True Dragon?
Is that the thing in your hand?
Eh, it looks like it. It has the aura of a True Dragon … But it's not right. It doesn't look like it … "
After talking to himself for a long time, this fellow raised his head and looked at me. He bashfully rubbed against my body and didn't look as unwilling as before. He asked me passionately, "Brother … Brother Zhou Yi, is this really the Saliva of the True Dragon?
Did you specially prepare it for me? "
I instantly felt a chill down my spine. I took two steps back and maintained a distance from him. Then, I explained, "This is considered a very low concentration Saliva of the True Dragon. It has been diluted many times. See if it's helpful for your dragon transformation."
Just as I said that, the two illusory eyes of the spirit snake shone brightly. He was so happy that his entire body was trembling. "Are you sure it's diluted Saliva of the True Dragon?
Of course, it's definitely helpful!
The reason why Grandpa Snake Immortal used the True Dragon's blood is because the power of the True Dragon's Saliva is too strong. Grandpa Snake Immortal's body is illusory and can't handle it. This diluted True Dragon's Saliva is just right. It's even more useful than the True Dragon's Blood. You little … No, Brother Zhou Yi, you're such a good person. Quickly give it to me. "
Of course, I knew how precious the True Dragon's Saliva was. However, I wasn't too sure about its effects other than to repair meridians. Moreover, this was just diluted True Dragon's Saliva, so I didn't have any use for it. So, I casually threw it to him.
The spirit snake carefully took it and brought it to his mouth. Then, he opened his mouth and swallowed it.
After swallowing it, he floated there without moving. After a long time, his body suddenly shivered. He smacked his lips a few times and his face was filled with pleasure. He moved closer to me and rubbed against me a few times like a puppy. Then, he smiled apologetically and asked, "Brother Zhou Yi, is there more?
I … I still want more. "
I kicked him to the side and said angrily, "Don't be so cheap. Speak properly."
The spirit snake chuckled and wasn't annoyed. He blinked his big eyes at me.
I spread my hands at him. "I only have this drop on me. It's gone."
"Pfft!"
Instantly, the spirit snake's attitude took a 180-degree turn. He swung his tail and returned to my back. He muttered angrily, "What can one drop do?
You need at least a hundred drops to be useful!
You only got one drop and made me, the spirit snake grandpa, unable to cultivate for half a day. You little kid, you're so insensible! "
I stood there and didn't say anything. After the spirit snake's entire body lay on my back, he didn't enter. Instead, he waited for a while and moved his huge head next to my ear. He asked again, "Is there really no more?
Don't lie to me. "
I grinned. "There really isn't any more."
Only then did the spirit snake completely give up. He let out another long sigh and didn't hesitate anymore. He plunged his head into my back.
After he entered, I continued, "I don't have any more on me, but I know a place with so much True Dragon Saliva that you won't be able to finish it."
As I expected, even though this fellow had burrowed into my body, his ears were still upright. With a rub, he flew out again. He giggled foolishly, his face filled with a fawning smile. "Snake Celestial … Little snake, I knew it. Big Brother Zhou Yi, you're so amazing. How could you only get one drop? Where is the place you were talking about?
Hurry up and bring me there to take a look.
When I successfully transform into a dragon, I'll do whatever you tell me to do.
If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west. If you tell me to hit a dog, I'll never catch a chicken. "
This fellow was just running his mouth. I didn't feel anything at all. I waved my hand at him impatiently. "Alright, alright. Go back and rest. When I go there again, I'll call you out."
"Alright!
I'll listen to your arrangements. "
The spirit snake smiled at me in a flattering manner. Then, he returned to my back. However, before he entered, he carefully reminded me in my ear, "Brother Zhou Yi, don't forget when the time comes.
How about I don't go in too? Let's go to the place you mentioned now. "
I didn't even turn my head. I only sent him one word, "Scram!"
"Alright!
I'll scram now. I'll scram now. "The spirit snake muttered and his huge figure disappeared on my back.
After the spirit snake returned, I went to sleep.
The night passed without a word.
The next morning, I hurried to the Municipal Public Security Bureau. I left in a hurry yesterday. Today, I had to see if I could persuade them to go with me.
When I arrived at the entrance of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, before I could enter, a figure suddenly appeared beside me. I looked up and saw that it was Han Wennan.
Seeing him, the corners of my mouth rose. It was just as I had thought. This fellow wanted to talk to me about the True Dragon Vein.
I asked with a smile even though I already knew the answer. "Brother Han, you're so early. What's the matter?"
He wasn't someone who was used to feigning civility with others. He went straight to the point. "Yesterday, in the cave, you should have sensed something ahead, right?"
I nodded. "The True Dragon Vein. Brother Han interrupted me yesterday. I don't know if you have anything to say."
Han Wennan nodded. "A straightforward person doesn't beat around the bush. Currently, only the two of us know about the True Dragon Vein. My Han family has always wanted to find a True Dragon Vein. I wonder if Daoist Zhang is willing to give it to my Han family?
Of course, I won't let you suffer any losses. If you have any conditions, just tell me. As long as it's within my capabilities, everything can be discussed. "
He sounded very sincere. I really wanted to tell him my true identity so that the Han family's Celestial Masters could protect me. However, when I recalled the ten Celestial Masters that had besieged me, I gave up on that thought. After thinking for a while, I said, "Brother Han, you're exaggerating. Even though I'm the successor of the Ghost Valley, my family has declined. I'm all alone now, so it's impossible for me to take something like the True Dragon Vein. This True Dragon Vein will naturally belong to your Han family. As for the conditions, I haven't thought about it yet.
This True Dragon Vein will naturally belong to your Han family. As for the conditions, I haven't thought about it yet. Why don't we talk about it later? "After getting my promise, Han Wennan heaved a sigh of relief. The stern expression on his face softened. He nodded." Alright, then it's a deal. Daoist Zhang, you can come and find me whenever you've thought of the conditions. "
After agreeing, we went to the office that the Municipal Public Security Bureau had prepared for us.
Professor Liang had experienced a lot of danger yesterday, but he didn't seem to be affected. Early in the morning, he was working in the office with his two students. The three of them were holding thick books and were constantly flipping through them. I didn't know what they were looking for. Chen Yangting and Miao Jue hadn't arrived yet. I asked Han Wennan, "Chen Yangting woke up yesterday. However, he's not feeling well, so he's resting in his residence. Miao Jue is taking care of him. I don't think he'll come over for a while."
I nodded and was about to suggest that we go to that cave again. However, before I could say anything, Professor Liang stood up and said, "Let's pack our things. We're going there now."
Ling Duyu and Mu Xin immediately put the books in their backpacks and stood up. Han Wennan frowned and asked, "Where are we going?"
Professor Liang glanced at him. "Of course, we're going to the cave. I've already found some information. Today, I'll go with you to that cave to see."
Han Wennan stood still. He hesitated for a while before shaking his head. "That cave is very dangerous. Master Miao Jue and Chen Daozhang aren't here today. We should rest for a day and wait for Chen Daozhang to recover. We'll decide what to do tomorrow."
