Guanhai Pavilion, as the name suggests, is probably the place where the Dragon King of Dongting used to watch the tide and water, and it is very magnificent.
Of course, Dongting is a lake, and the waters of the Dragon King are not as wide as the sea, but no one can stop the Dragon King from naming the place where he observes the situation of Dongting Lake "Guanhai Pavilion".
Thousands of years ago, this place might have been majestic and prosperous, but at this moment, only the empty hall appeared in front of Lin Luoran and the others.
They didn't expect it to be so smooth, and they came to Guanhai Pavilion without hindrance. Lin Luoran was naturally very happy when he thought that the treasure house of the Dragon Palace was nearby.
"Senior Sister Lin, that's Haitai!"
In the main hall, there is a step leading to the second floor. It is said that His Majesty the Dragon King often climbs up the steps to inspect the waters upstairs. This is probably the tallest building in the Dragon Palace.
These "said" are also recorded on the bamboo slips. I don't know whose tomb it is, but I am as familiar with the Dongting Dragon Palace as my own backyard.
Normally, Lin Luoran would be curious about such a place, but now, she just wants to know where the treasure house is.
On the right side of Guanhai Pavilion, there are lush underwater plants, which looks like the "garden" of the Dragon Palace. How can there be a shadow of a treasure house? Among them, what went wrong... Could it be that the records on the bamboo slips were wrong? But the other places it records are not only correct, but also made them avoid many "traps" along the way.
Could it be that the treasure house is the biggest trap
"Let's search separately to see if there are any clues." Lin Luoran came out from the side door and went to the flower garden first.
Rong Donglin nodded, but climbed up the steps to Guanhai Pavilion.
There are many exotic flowers and plants in the flower garden. In addition to various reefs unique to the seabed, there are also many famous land flowers. It was spring, the flower garden was full of spring flowers, and the peonies were all over the city, and because no one took care of them for many years, the shadows of the trees and the long green vines were especially moving in this grotesque underwater world.
Who would have thought that there would be peonies under Dongting Lake
Lin Luoran looked around, and actually saw a few "seaweeds" among the red coral bushes. This is a water-type spiritual grass, which usually only grows in the deep sea, where groups of sharks live, and the special secretion can be called "" Seaweed grows normally and turns into a spirit. Lin Luoran doesn't know if there are sharks in Dongting Lake. These seaweeds are rare for monks, and in this Dongting Dragon Palace, they are just "flowers" for viewing... This is just the waters of Dongting, the huge ocean , How rich and powerful are those dragons
How could such a race disappear from the earth? Lin Luoran was stunned, not only the dragon clan disappeared, but also the phoenix, unicorn, these legendary beasts are gone now.
There is still a fire phoenix in the space, how could it be that it lived in it before the phoenix disappeared? Since the former owner of the bead was able to capture Phoenix and lock it in, Lin Luoran didn't know what kind of cultivation he would have to go against the sky... At least it was an existence she could only look up to.
The leaves of seaweed turn purple, which is a symbol of a long time. Naturally, Lin Luoran will not let go of such spiritual grass, and soon received several seaweeds into the space.
After picking seaweed, I discovered that there was a brown object under the sand. Lin Luoran brushed off the sand and found that it was a broken mussel shell—bigger than the round table, only half of the mussel shell. This mussel was already a It has been dead for many years, and there is still a black pearl in the sand, the size of a baby's fist, obviously produced in this river mussel, no matter in quality or size, it is much better than the pearls that can be seen everywhere in the Dragon Palace.
The Dragon Clan loves wealth the most, and they didn't even have time to take such treasures with them, so they obviously left in a hurry.
What happened back then, from the prehistoric period to the Xia and Shang Dynasties, Lin Luoran always felt that historians could not justify the history of China.
What is missing... What is it? Lin Luoran looked at the bead on his wrist. Its previous owner may have just witnessed that era.
She calmed down, put away the black pearls, and carefully searched this huge flower garden.
This tree also grows strangely, it is covered with thorns, and it is bare without even a single leaf. The aesthetics of Dragon Lord is really strange.
Lin Luoran rolled her eyes, feeling a little weird. It doesn't make sense to plant such a tree in a place full of famous flowers and plants.
Just as she stretched out her hand, there was a sudden exclamation from the Guanhai Pavilion—oh no, it was Rong Donglin's voice, is he in danger
Lin Luoran didn't care to look at the strange tree anymore, and flew up to the second floor of Guanhai Pavilion where the windows were half closed.
The windows were crumbling, and there was a creaking sound after Lin Luoran passed by. The entire second floor was surprisingly large, and some curtains that had been incorruptible for thousands of years moved with the wind, but there was no sign of Rong Donglin.
She stepped up to the third floor in a few steps. The Guanhai Pavilion has a total of seven floors. The bottom is large and the top is small, decreasing in the shape of a tower. Lin Luoran quickly swept up to the seventh floor.
It's empty.
This Guanhai Pavilion didn't even have a table, chair or bench, and Rong Donglin, a living person, disappeared right under Lin Luoran's nose!
This situation is very similar to when Baojia disappeared in the desert, Rong Donglin must have discovered something, touched some kind of restriction, and was teleported away
Damn, she shouldn't take it lightly!
Even if the Dragon Clan abandons the Dragon Palace, it is not something monks like them can easily touch—no one likes thieves running around in any house, even if it is an old house.
What she hopes most now is that there are no other creatures in this Dragon Palace.
Especially someone like the "Saint of Hanba" who thinks very highly of himself and loves to take things away for no reason.
Shouldn't there be
Lin Luoran didn't have much confidence for some reason.
She was still annoyed when something suddenly flashed on the roof of the seventh floor, which caught Lin Luoran's gaze.
It was a... how should I put it, something like a telescope.
That's right, Lin Luoran thought of the telescope strangely, something that shouldn't exist in the Dragon Palace. She flew up, and just touched the mirror body with her hand, but found a chair appeared under her body.
Um, do you want her to sit up and watch
Lin Luoran tried it a bit, but she didn't dare to sit down comfortably. With some caution, Lin Luoran poked into the camera—hey, isn't this mouth full of steel teeth just like a ferocious shark
Can you still see the outside through this lens? What about the lake
Following Lin Luoran's thoughts, the sparkling Dongting Lake appeared in the camera. There is not a single fishing boat on it, so fishing is really banned today. The camera zoomed out, she saw Junshan, and with a thought, even the tourists at the port could see clearly.
Perhaps, as long as it is within the scope of Dongting Lake, this telescope can see it
Lin Luoran's thoughts changed, from the small crabs nesting in the sand caves at the bottom of the lake to the large continuous lake embankments, they could be clearly seen through this lens. She tried many places, saw many big fishes on the bottom of the sea, many tourists walking on the embankment of the lake... God, she probably knows how Lord Long patrolled the waters in the past!
No wonder this place is called Guanhai Pavilion. Through this telescope-like treasure, Lord Long can understand the situation of every fish and shrimp within the scope of Dongting Lake even without going out!
This... Lin Luoran paused suddenly, and the camera was also frozen.
On a dirty black-covered boat by the lake, even the wrinkles on Lao Liao's seemingly honest face can be seen clearly. Seemingly aware that someone was spying on him secretly, Lao Liao looked left and right, suddenly stared in Lin Luoran's direction and smiled, waving his hand as if saying hello!
Can he see here? !
Lin Luoran was startled, the chair under her feet moved wildly, and she was actually "attacked" by a chair!
To be precise, the chair probably discovered that the person who was peeping into the waters was not Long Jun himself at all, and rebelled and overthrew Lin Luoran!
In a hurry, Lin Luoran only saw that the pattern of the tiles on the ground below her seemed to be a little abnormal. She had just touched the ground, and she had already disappeared into the seventh floor of Guanhai Pavilion.
Meanwhile, the messy chair is gone, and, er, the binoculars are gone too.
Across the vast waters, Lao Liao on the black-padded boat dropped all the cigarettes from his mouth.
"Hey, isn't that girl too scared?" Lao Liao was extremely depressed, but he didn't know that anyone who encountered such a strange thing would be scared to death.
"Old man Liao, what are you talking about?" The fishing ban officially began, and the fishermen began to clean up their fellows. They have houses in Yueyang. During the fishing ban period, they naturally don't need to live on the lake to blow the cold wind. They will wait until summer. Start fishing again.
Lao Liao extinguished his cigarette, "I said Watson's father, can you buy my fishing boat?"
Watson's father was surprised, "You don't fish anymore? What will you eat after that?"
Lao Liao's eyes widened: "Bullshit, I don't have children, I don't know how to enjoy myself!"
Ah, the old man Liao also has children, but this is the first time I heard about it... Suddenly the lake became lively, and everyone had been fishing together for so many years. Enjoy the hard days in the sun.
In the end, Watson's father bought Lao Liao's rotten fishing boat for 1,000 yuan. This old fisherman who had been fishing for 60 years disappeared by the Dongting Lake and never appeared again.
Occasionally, the neighbors would scold the old man Liao for forgetting everyone, but generally speaking, they were mostly happy for him.
Having been in the industry for sixty years, no matter what line of work you do, this is an honorable retirement!
Lao Liao was very happy, the wrinkles on his face turned into creases when he left, and even the tattered daily necessities on board were generous this time, and he did not take them away.
He waved to everyone and disappeared into the stench of crayfish by Dongting Lake. No one knew how happy he was.
——Finally sent out the things that have been guarded for many years, everyone is extremely relaxed.
***********
The Guanhai Pavilion is quiet and tight, and the hanging curtain is automatic without wind.
Xiao An appeared on the seventh floor.
He seemed to have stood there for a long time, even his feet were a little stiff.
"Didn't Uncle Lin test me?... Then where did she go?" Xiao An frowned, diluting the childishness of her baby face a lot.
He followed from afar, relying on the bamboo talisman to cover up his whereabouts, seeing Lin Luoran disappear suddenly with his own eyes, at first he thought it was Lin Luoran who found out that someone was following him and was deceiving him.
Xiaoan waited patiently for half a day, but Lin Luoran was nowhere to be seen, so she came out with peace of mind.
He stared at the unusually colored floor tile thoughtfully, then suddenly stretched out a foot and stepped on it carefully.
Pa—there was only the sound of his own footsteps. After waiting for a while, he remained where he was, and nothing happened.
It's so strange, why is Uncle Lin gone
