The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 156: Dongyang Water Battle, Brown Rope Transforms into Dragon

Liu Zifeng and his junior sister looked at each other, then quickly stood up and bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, sister-in-law."

Zhang Jiuyang: “???”

The dragon girl looked at them, her glass-colored pupils pure and flawless, and said, "I am not."

Su Lingshan was a little surprised and asked, "Aren't you Xiaoya's mother? Brother Zhang is her father, so you shouldn't be..."

"Cough cough!"

Zhang Jiuyang quickly interrupted her and said, "There is something I have forgotten to explain. Xiaoya is not my daughter, but Longnv's sister. I am just helping to take care of her."

The dragon girl looked at him quietly for a long time, then said something.

"Zhang Jiuyang, I want to hit you."

Lu'e's gaze remained on Longnv and Zhang Jiuyang, with a look of "as expected" in her eyes.

Although she had followed her master for a short time, she had already understood the dragon girl's temperament. She was otherworldly and had a clear distinction between love and hate.

If it were someone else, she wouldn't just talk about it, but would have taken action long ago.

Obviously, this Zhang Jiuyang is very special to his master.

"Haha, it was just an accident, an accident. I usually treat Xiaoya as my own sister."

Zhang Jiuyang hurriedly explained, his body tensed, fearing that the dragon girl would really hit him. After all, with her personality, it would not be surprising for her to do anything.

Fortunately, she was just talking after all. Since the last incident in Yunmengze, the two of them became friends and initially established a sincere friendship.

The dragon girl looked at her sister in her arms.

Ao Ya showed a toothless smile and called out to her, "Sister..."

Then she turned around and looked at Zhang Jiuyang, shouting, "Sister...husband..."

Boom!

Zhang Jiuyang was struck by lightning. It’s over. How could he have forgotten about this?
He glared at Ah Li, but found that Ah Li had already slipped back into the Yin puppet, running wildly.

The dragon girl's eyes, which had been calm until now, finally showed some movement.

"Ahem, listen to my explanation..."

"Sister... Husband..."

"Sister... Husband..."

"Brother-in-law..."

Ao Ya's calls became smoother and smoother, and she kept grinning at Zhang Jiuyang with a very intimate look.

A brilliant light suddenly bloomed on the Dragon Girl's body, and every inch of her skin seemed to be flowing with flawless fairy light. She lightly stepped on her white shoes embroidered with cloud patterns, and the essence of water automatically condensed into a snow-white lotus, supporting her delicate and slender lotus feet.

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes moved. The Dragon Girl's cultivation seemed to be higher than before. It seemed that Xijiang was better than Yunmengze.

"It's really not me who taught you that. It's Ah Li, you damn girl, come out and explain yourself..."

Zhang Jiuyang patted the Yin doll in his arms, but Ah Li was very good at playing dead and did not respond at all.

"Come with me to the bedroom."

The dragon girl formed a lotus seal in her hand, and the fairy light on her body instantly enveloped Zhang Jiuyang. Then, with a flash of light, the figures of the two disappeared.

At the banquet, Liu Zifeng and Su Lingshan looked at each other.

There really is something fishy going on between Brother Zhang and Dragon Girl. Xiaoya actually calls him brother-in-law. It seems that even if it hasn't happened yet, good things are about to happen.

But...are we going to the bedroom now?
In broad daylight, with guests present...

Such a pure and elegant fairy, like the lingering sound of snow, seemed to be unable to endure the pain of lovesickness. However, she was too bold and completely disregarded the secular etiquette. She was worthy of being the legendary dragon girl.

Su Lingshan was somewhat envious and admiring.

At least she couldn't do whatever she wanted.

"My master has always been unconventional in his behavior. Please don't blame me. I will continue drinking with you."

Lu'e toasted. She was knowledgeable and eloquent, and soon made the atmosphere lively.

……

Bedroom.

Zhang Jiuyang took off his boots and stepped on the soft, snow-white jade carpet. This was a peculiar kind of soft jade, softer than animal fur, and had the effect of clearing the mind and nourishing the spirit.

Compared with the magnificent banquet hall, the dragon girl's bedroom appears much more simple and elegant, yet more fresh and natural.

The shoes and socks transformed by her magic power disappeared, and under the snow skirt, a pair of beautiful feet that seemed to be carved out of white jade were faintly visible. They stepped on the soft jade white carpet, but seemed whiter than jade.

"Zhang Jiuyang, what's so good about my feet? Why do you always look at them?"

The Dragon Girl was somewhat puzzled. Her glass-like pupils looked at her own feet. She gently lifted the hem of her skirt, revealing her lotus-like toes, crystal clear skin, and half of her snow-white, slender calves.

Zhang Jiuyang silently practiced the "Chongyang Zhenren Jinguan Yusuo Jue" for a long time before he finally regained his composure. The Dragon Girl did not know any charm techniques, but her purity of "a lotus emerging from clear water, naturally without any decoration" was even more irresistible.

Fortunately, he was not so narcissistic as to think that the Dragon Girl just fell in love with him and was deliberately seducing him.

She just had never made any friends and was out of touch with the world. She just said whatever she thought. As for the differences between men and women and worldly views, they were not even within her considerations.

"According to human sayings, a woman's feet should not be shown to any man other than her husband."

Zhang Jiuyang tried to explain it to her.

"Oh, but you are not my husband."

The Dragon Girl loosened her hands, and her skirt fell down, covering her flawless feet. She tilted her head slightly and stared at Zhang Jiuyang.

"Then I will dig out your eyes."

The ethereal voice made Zhang Jiuyang's scalp numb. But when he saw the smile that flashed across the dragon girl's eyes, he realized that she was joking with him.

Ao Ya seemed to understand what was said. She looked at her sister, then at Zhang Jiuyang, and then actually stood in front of Zhang Jiuyang, shaking her head continuously. Her voice was unclear, but her eyes were determined.

This touched Zhang Jiuyang's heart. It was not in vain that he loved this little guy.

"It seems that Xiaoya really likes you."

The dragon girl's eyes became softer. She looked at Zhang Jiuyang and said, "Thank you for helping me take care of my sister and teaching her to speak new words."

"I taught you, Sister Dragon Girl. It was Ali who taught you—woo!"

Zhang Jiuyang pushed back Ah Li who was trying to float out, and pasted a Five Thunder Talisman on him. Then he waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

"We are all friends, no need to be polite. By the way, have you broken through to the sixth level of cultivation?"

There was a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

The Dragon Girl is definitely his most powerful ally on this trip to Yangzhou. If she breaks through to the sixth realm, with the body of a true dragon, even if she cannot defeat the seventh realm, she will definitely be the best among the six realms.

But unfortunately, the Dragon Girl shook her head and said: "Although I have made some progress since coming to Xijiang, I am still missing the last step. The water essence here is not enough."

"What about Dongyang Lake?"

Zhang Jiuyang remembered that Dongyang Lake was known as the largest lake in the world, stretching over 800 miles. Although Xijiang River was not small either, it was still much inferior to Dongyang Lake.

"There is a demon dragon in Dongyang Lake. It is the same one that ambushed me under the water of Hongjiang River together with Painted Skin last time."

When mentioning the evil dragon, the dragon girl's eyes turned a little cold.

Although she is not a person who likes to fight with others, she is not a person who will not take revenge. Last time, the Painted Skin Master and the evil dragon almost took her life. If Zhang Jiuyang had not rescued her in time, she would have been doomed.

Therefore, after living in Yunmengze for decades, she was willing to come to Yangzhou and work hard to seek a breakthrough.

"Where did that demon dragon come from, and why is there such a strong demonic aura on it?"

The Dragon Girl is very clear about this issue.

"Strictly speaking, it is not a dragon, but a brown rope. The locals call it Brown Grandpa San."

Zhang Jiuyang's heart moved. The name of the demon dragon was indeed Zong San. However, he couldn't understand why a brown rope could become a demon dragon?
"Six hundred years ago, there was a battle for Dingguo in Daqian, and it happened on Dongyang Lake."

Zhang Jiuyang, who had read history books, blurted out: "Dongyang Water Battle?"

The dragon girl nodded.

Six hundred years ago, Chen Kui, the overlord of Jiangnan, led tens of thousands of warships and a total of 200,000 troops north along the river, intending to annex the newly established Daqian.

Many people advocated surrender at that time, but the military god Yue Jingzhong requested to fight. He used ambush and fire attack to defeat Chen Kui's army and forced it to return empty-handed.

Immediately afterwards, Yue Jingzhong led his troops in pursuit, turning the passive situation into active one, and chased them all the way to Dongyang Lake.

The two sides engaged in a very brutal fight.

According to historical records, in March, the 800-li Dongyang Lake was filled with blood and the lake was littered with the corpses of soldiers.

In the end, Yue Jingzhong won a great victory and Chen Kui's army was completely wiped out.

After this battle, Daqian truly established his position as the master of the world and unified the nine provinces, and Yue Jingzhong was conferred the title of Duke Dingguo.

"During that battle, the lake water remained red for three months. The resentment in Dongyang Lake was so great that an evil spirit was born, the Brown Three."

"It was originally a brown rope that was about to rot. After absorbing countless grievances and blood, it gradually developed spirituality and became a Taoist. After hundreds of years of cultivation, it actually grew flesh and blood, dragon scales, and became a demon dragon that stirs up trouble."

At this point, the dragon girl shook her head and said calmly: "But fake is fake after all. Although it looks like it has a dragon body, it is still a brown rope in its bones. If you want to completely transform into a dragon, you have to swallow a real dragon ball."

Zhang Jiuyang suddenly realized, no wonder the Painted Skin Master could convince Zong San to join him in dealing with the Dragon Girl.

Zong San has always wanted to become a real dragon, so he has coveted the Dragon Girl for a long time. However, he was not sure, so he agreed to join forces with the Painted Skin Master.

Thinking of this, he sneered and said, "Painted Skin Master and Brown Three are not easy to deal with. They have their own agenda. After the failure in Qingzhou, they may have become enemies now."

When he was fighting the dragon underwater, the Painted Skin Master did not put in any effort and took the opportunity to snatch the dragon ball and ran away, not caring about Zong San's life or death at all.

There was no way the demon dragon couldn't have sensed this.

What's more, the Painted Skin Master gave him the Dragon Ball in the underworld, and Brown Three didn't see this scene. When he saw the Painted Skin Master again, how could he not ask for the Dragon Ball?

Selling out teammates and receiving dirty rewards, how could the evil dragon tolerate this with its evil and violent nature?
As expected, the dragon girl nodded and said, "You guessed right. The demon dragon has been looking for trouble with the Painted Skin Master during this period of time."

"Did they find out you came to Yangzhou?"

Zhang Jiuyang suddenly asked.

The dragon girl shook her head.

"I originally wanted to seize Dongyang Lake, but when I saw that the demon dragon and Painted Skin were against each other, I thought about waiting and seeing, and chose Xijiang River, which is quite far from Dongyang Lake, as the Dragon Palace."

"This place is quite remote and sparsely populated. It is also several hundred miles away from Yangzhou City. I usually let Lu'e take care of the trivial matters of the Dragon Palace, and I never show up myself."

"By the way, Lu'e was the original owner of Xijiang, a pig-dragon with a fourth-level cultivation level. I subdued her, and the spirits in the Dragon Palace were also her original subordinates."

Zhang Jiuyang asked with some doubt: "Are you so confident in her?"

The dragon girl smiled and said, "You may not know what true dragon blood means to the water spirits. Forget about asking her to take care of the Dragon Palace. I can even ask her to be your mount with just one word."

Zhang Jiuyang understood immediately.

It turns out that to the water monsters, the Dragon Girl is equivalent to Long Aotian. With a shake of her tiger body, all the shrimps and crabs surrender to her.

This is a kind of pressure that comes from blood. Unless one has extremely high cultivation, it is difficult for water creatures to break this confinement.

"Don't say that..."

"Actually... I do need a mount."

Dragon Girl: “…”
