Chapter 19 (1/2)
Zhou Xu was originally Li Er riding qingniu. He had long been wise, but he was always at a loss. After Li Er took him as a mount, he often accompanied Li Er to listen to his preaching, and then he stepped into the road of practice. Later, the royal family of Zhou Dynasty declined, and Li Er's classics were brought to Chu by the prince Dynasty. Li Er was dismissed from office. Frustrated, he took him West out of Hangu pass and traveled around preaching alone. Influenced by Li Er's experience, his accomplishments gradually increased. After Li Er died a hundred years ago, he finally became human.
It's more than 2000 years.
At that time, he was still a newly formed little demon. The Zhou Dynasty was declining, and all the heroes were competing for the deer. Finally, the Qin Dynasty ruled the country. After the unification of the first emperor, when he came back from outside the pass and passed by Pengcheng in Surabaya, he had the honor to meet Yinglong.
It was about the 28th year of the first emperor. The first emperor intended to follow the example of King Yu and sent a large number of people to search for the whereabouts of the nine tripods. Later he learned that the place where the nine tripods were lost was Pengcheng in Sishui. After fasting and praying at the side of Surabaya, more than 1000 people were sent to search for the nine tripods. However, when it was not easy to find the nine cauldrons, a dragon appeared in the water, biting the rope of the cauldron and setting off strong winds and waves, which hindered the first emperor from finding the cauldron.
The first emperor was the son of heaven of the human race. He was the supreme in the Ninth Five Year Plan period and had great fortune. Yinglong is the God of the lower world, unpredictable and unruly.
After more than ten days of confrontation between the two sides in Surabaya, the first emperor finally gave up Jiuding, while Yinglong rolled Jiuding into Surabaya again.
It was the first time that he saw Yinglong. At that time, he was just a glimpse of Yinglong, and he was convinced by the arrogance of the ancient witches.
Later, while practicing, he paid attention to the news of Yinglong, and realized that the Yinglong he saw was not the one in the legend that the lower world helped the Yellow Emperor defeat Chiyou.
The Yinglong clan was originally a Protoss in the sky. Because of the war between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou, Yinglong Gengchen led the dragons to fight with Chiyou and Kuafu. However, due to the exhaustion of his divine power, he was forced to stay in the lower boundary and live in daze for a long time.
The Yinglong he saw in Surabaya was a little dragon that followed Gengchen to the lower world.
Gengchen had great righteousness in his heart, and later he helped King Yu to control the flood and kill wuzhiqi... Finally, because of the exhaustion of his divine power, he completely dissipated in heaven and earth.
It is said that before he completely dissipated, he injected his last dragon soul into the nine cauldrons made by King Yu.
Later, Jiuding moved three times, went through three dynasties of Xia, Shang and Zhou, and was lost when Zhou Dynasty was destroyed by Qin Dynasty. After several decades, it was found by Yinglong in Sishui.
After that, Yinglong and Jiuding did not know where they were.
Zhou Xu, on the other hand, gradually developed into a big demon from a little demon who had just been cultivated in human form.
It was not long after the establishment of the Ministry of security that he saw Yinglong again.
At the end of the law, the belief disappeared and countless witches and gods disappeared. The demon clan and practitioners were struggling. The only witches and gods in the world were also dead in name. They stepped down from the altar and no longer regarded themselves as gods.
Ying Qiao is also on the list.
In order to survive in the way of heaven, both big demons and practitioners began to actively cooperate with the Ministry of security, and began to set up the earliest demon Control Bureau and special control bureau to seek a way of peaceful coexistence with mankind.
Zhou Xu was greatly benefitted by Li Er. When he was young, he was also touched by what Geng Chen did and actively participated in it.
Because of the origin in his early years and his admiration for Gengchen and Yinglong, he once approached Yingqiao on his own initiative.
But gradually he found that although Yingqiao and Gengchen were of the same race, their ideas were quite different.
Gengchen was concerned with the earth and the human race, and even willing to sacrifice himself; But Ying Qiao is probably disgusted with the land and even the human race.
——This is actually his guess after contacting Ying Qiao.
Ying Qiao is powerful. At first, the Ministry of security invited him to be the director of the General Administration of the demon Management Bureau, but he refused without hesitation. Later, after being invited by all parties for many times, he reluctantly took the post of deputy director of Jiangcheng demon Management Bureau.
However, it is said that Zhou Xu knew that he rarely participated in the management of the demon Management Bureau.
Like other big demons, he seems to have gradually integrated into human society, opened a company and lived in human cities. Occasionally, when the country is in trouble, he can ask this great God to do it.
But from his few meetings, Zhou Xu found that his eyes never changed.
Under the surface of indifference, there is a deeper aversion.
He has been trying his best to disguise himself and create the illusion of peace.
Zhou Xu didn't tell anyone about his discovery, but there was a vague worry in his heart. He retired a few years ago, and the reason why he came to Jiangcheng from Beijing to provide for the aged is precisely because of this inexplicable worry.
Although he retreated, he knew more or less about the demon Management Bureau.
For example, Ying Qiao's temper has become more and more irritable these years, and even the big demons who are friendly with him dare not provoke him easily.
Fortunately, his bad temper returned to bad, but Zhou Xu's most worrying situation did not appear.
This somewhat relieved Zhou Xu.
But he never thought that Yinglong, who had been observing secretly, would suddenly appear in the small street office and call him ”Uncle Zhou” politely and politely.
It's not so like Yinglong he knew.
Zhou Xu was not only frightened, but also flattered.
He looked at Jiang GUI and Ying Qiao. He saw something from Ying Qiao's threatening eyes. He immediately obediently followed Ying Qiao's words and said, ”it's Xiaojiang... Jiang GUI's brother. Welcome.”
Ying Qiao's smile was more sincere. He even took out a box of tea from another bag and said politely, ”Jiang said that you like tea. Just because there are so many tea leaves at home, I brought you a box of tea.”
Uncle Zhou listened to his ”you” one by one, and the smile on his face could hardly be maintained.
Good hang just restrained oneself not to bend over to pick up.
Ying Qiao distributed the snacks to three people in the office, and the last bag left was for Jiang Jiu and Xiao lion dragon. He was already familiar with the lion dragon. He picked up the little one and gently touched his head. He took out a bag of dried skates and put them in the middle of his claws.
The flesh of skate is tender, sour and sweet, and the taste is very popular with the young. But because the skate lives in the East China Sea and is good at flying, it is difficult to catch. Therefore, dried skate is a very rare and expensive snack. Only rich and loving parents will buy it for their young.
