The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 615 The Stolen Dragon Vein
Chen Xiao was slightly stunned. He had never heard of the dragon vein of Hua being stolen by the Dongying people.
He only knew that when Hua was still called Kyushu, there were nine dragon veins in total.
But now, only three are left on the surface, namely the Changbai Dragon Vein in the Northeast, the Kunlun Dragon Vein in the Northwest, and the Jiuyi Dragon Vein in the Central region.
As for the remaining six, Chen Xiao knew that there was a hidden dragon vein under his house.
He didn't know about the remaining five.
He didn't expect that one of them would be in Dongying.
The so-called dragon vein is where great luck lies.
Although the dragon vein itself cannot provide direct help to people, the influence of luck on people is subtle.
Since ancient times, dragon veins have been a must-contend place for officials.
And the small Dongying can rise in just a hundred years, and even after experiencing a great defeat, the economy can still take off again, which must have a great relationship with this dragon vein.
"Sir, what I said is true. This matter can be traced back to five hundred years ago, when Hua was still called Kyushu. A celestial deity descended on Kyushu, causing the land of Kyushu to fall into the flames of war."
"And the Dongying people took advantage of the chaos to fish in troubled waters, snatching chestnuts from the fire, and forcibly stole a dragon vein from Kyushu!"
"Kyushu was defeated in that great battle and was badly injured. They were too busy to take care of themselves, and they had no intention of crossing the East Sea to make trouble after the war. Therefore, that spiritual vein remained in this small land of Dongying."
Mizukawa Seiko spoke in great detail.
"The extraterrestrial visitors you mentioned are the Heavenly Dao Gods? They are actually extraterrestrial visitors?"
Chen Xiao asked in confusion.
He had heard many people mention the Heavenly Dao Gods, and they only said that it was a mysterious organization.
They didn't know where they came from when they came, and they didn't know where they went after they left.
But listening to Mizukawa Seiko's words today, it was very reliable. Those Heavenly Dao Gods were likely to be extraterrestrial visitors.
"As expected of you, sir, you really know the Heavenly Dao Gods."
Mizukawa Seiko complimented Chen Xiao without leaving a trace.
Chen Xiao asked again: "What you said sounds like the truth, so tell me, who stole the dragon vein and how was it stolen?"
"Reporting to you, sir."
Mizukawa Seiko said respectfully, "The person who stole the dragon vein was Izanagi of the Dongying God Clan. He directed Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons), secretly transporting the dragon vein to Dongying by sea and land, and hid the dragon vein in the Dragon Cave."
Chen Xiao frowned slightly: "Who exactly are you? How do you know so much about this matter?"
"Reporting to you, sir."
Mizukawa Seiko said with a wry smile, "It's just because this matter is my personal experience. I was originally a small monster in Kyushu. When Izanagi directed Hyakki Yagyō to steal and transport the dragon vein, I hid in that dragon vein."
"After that, I followed the dragon vein to Dongying, and lived in the Dragon Cave, cultivating hard."
"In the hundredth year after coming to Dongying, I transformed into a human form, and after another three hundred years of cultivation, I successfully broke through to the Jindan stage."
"At that time, I finally had enough of the endless loneliness and loneliness, and I thought that my strength was already top-notch, so I left the Dragon Cave and roamed the world."
"When I first entered the martial world, I ran rampant in Dongying, and no one was my opponent. I thought I was invincible in the world, and I acted recklessly."
"But soon, reality taught me a lesson, letting me know that there are people beyond people, and there is heaven beyond heaven."
"My actions angered the Dongying royal family, and brought their divine punishment. From then on, I clamped my tail and acted like a snake."
"They asked me to guard the shrine, and I obediently obeyed. In the past few decades, I have changed several identities and rotated between several shrines as a Guuji (chief priest)."
After listening to Mizukawa Seiko's narration, Chen Xiao looked at her with interest and asked quietly: "In this case, the damned God Clan still values you quite a bit, and you are quite loyal to them. Why do you want to betray them now?"
"Damn loyalty! They nominally let me be the Guuji of the shrine, but in fact, isn't that just another way to imprison me?"
Mizukawa Seiko said indignantly, "Moreover, I was born in Kyushu and am a citizen of Kyushu. I was stolen by them to Dongying, so it is in line with the general trend to join you, sir. As for betrayal, there is no way to talk about it!"
Hearing this, Chen Xiao finally nodded: "I can spare your life, you just need to take me to the Dragon Cave where the dragon vein is hidden!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Mizukawa Seiko said with an excited expression, and directly changed her words, calling Chen Xiao master.
Chen Xiao frowned, and then said loudly: "I didn't say that I would take you in, and I won't be your master. After you take me to the Dragon Cave, the world is so big, you can gallop wherever you want."
The demon cultivators on Earth have declined, and Chen Xiao finally decided to give her a chance.
Just treat it as a contribution to the biodiversity of the earth!
"But I still advise you to be a good demon. If I find out that you are harming the world, I will definitely take your life, no matter if you are in the sky or on earth!"
"I know, sir, thank you for giving me the opportunity. I didn't have a choice before, but this time, I will definitely be a good person, no, a good demon!"
Mizukawa Seiko said firmly.
Afterwards, Chen Xiao asked some more questions about the Dongying God Clan.
After listening to Mizukawa Seiko's explanation, Chen Xiao learned that the Dongying God Clan also lived in a place similar to a middle-thousand world.
It can be seen that this God Clan actually has nothing to do with gods, it's just what they call themselves.
And the three most core figures of the Dongying God Clan are Izanagi, the mastermind who stole the Kyushu dragon vein five hundred years ago.
This person is in the position of the main god in the Dongying God Clan.
The other two are his son Susanoo and his daughter Amaterasu.
Among them, Amaterasu is the most well-known.
She was the one who subdued Mizukawa Seiko, and she was also the god served by Aramaki Miko.
Chen Xiao was vaguely looking forward to this legendary figure who had been recorded in myths.
But before that, he decided to go to the Dragon Cave to take a look at the dragon vein first.
This is a dragon vein belonging to Hua. If there is a way, he will transport it back to Hua.
If there is no way, then he would rather destroy it than continue to let the Dongying bastards enjoy the luck it brings.
After making a decision, Chen Xiao ordered: "Little Snake Demon, I want to go to the Dragon Cave to take a look now, you lead the way for me."
Mizukawa Seiko immediately responded: "Yes, sir!"
The Dragon Cave is located on Mount Ayara in the northeastern region of Dongying. If Chen Xiao flew over by himself or flew with his sword, it would take up to an hour.
But after all, he still had to take care of two burdens, so he finally chose public transportation.
Before going down the mountain, Chen Xiao didn't forget today's purpose. He set the North Sea Shrine on fire and turned it into ashes.
From then on, the North Sea Shrine, which had existed for more than six hundred years, became history.
