Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

"As thick as a water tank??" Chang Kun, sitting in the passenger seat, crossed his arms. "That thick?"

Ma Zhao nodded: "According to them, it is indeed that thick! Later, they even tied a sheep with a thick hemp rope and put it into the mouth of the underground river, trying to fish out that thing. Who knew that the hemp rope would break as soon as it was pulled. The people present saw that the thing was at least twenty meters long. Even if it was not a white dragon, it was still a dragon's son or grandson."

"So what's the situation now?"

"The underground river mouth is a bottleneck in transportation, and the workers don't dare to go near it at all, so we simply gave them a break. The construction site has been shut down for three or four days, and they asked us to come and solve the problem. As soon as I heard about this, I thought of your abilities, Brother Chang."

"It's better to set up machine guns and cannons; whether it's a dragon's son or grandson, it can't withstand anything!"

Ma Zhao gave a wry smile: "That's what I say, but I can't do it that way!"

He then explained that many of the workers at the reservoir construction site were locals, and they all said that violently killing the descendants of the White Dragon was not a good omen for the reservoir.

Moreover, given how enormous that thing is, it's uncertain whether machine guns and cannons can destroy it.

The underground river is of unknown depth and width; if it were to collapse, the resulting damage would be incalculable.

Chang Kun recalled his memories of his past life.

If there is such a huge creature in Miyun Reservoir, and you live not far from home, you should have heard about it.

I searched my mind, but still came up with nothing.

Did this incident never actually happen back then?

Or was it secretly dealt with by the 749 Bureau, and the news was kept secret and didn't spread?

The most authentic record about dragons is the dragon that fell in Yingkou, Liaoning in 34.

It is said that the dragon was still alive when it landed on the ground, and people even watered it.

After it died, its scales shimmered and its horns gleamed, so much so that even a child could recognize it at a glance as a dragon.

After thinking for a while without any ideas, Chang Kun shook his head and decided to see how things went when he got there.

Even if it's not a real dragon, it's extremely rare for a creature to grow that big. Try your best not to commit any killing.

The two soon arrived at the reservoir construction site, which is located near Xiwengzhuang. It is said that the tomb of the Fifth Prince is buried in this area.

That's right, it's Yongqi's tomb. He was granted the title of Prince during his lifetime and was buried near Miyun after his death. I wonder if Xiao Yanzi was buried with him...

Lost in thought, Chang Kun walked into the construction site.

The reservoir construction site, which was bustling with activity just a few days ago, is now shrouded in an unusual silence.

Baskets and carrying poles were scattered haphazardly, a wheelbarrow lay overturned to one side, and several empty sheds in the distance were deserted. The entire open space was lifeless.

Chang Kun was filled with doubt. Even if the White Dragon really came, it wouldn't have caused such a commotion. There must be something else going on.

The two trudged through the muddy construction site to the vicinity of the underground river mouth. Ma Zhao pointed to a spot where water was gushing out in the distance: "Brother Chang, that's the underground river mouth."

Chang Kun looked over at the sound and saw that the bubbling water was indeed unusual; its reddish-brown color was unsettling to look at.

According to the intuition, about three miles from the mouth of the underground river, there is a shallow beach where a giant snake is coiled around a stone pillar. Its body almost fills the small shallow beach. Even before it has fully unfurled, it already gives people a strong sense of oppression.

The snake was pure white, with palm-sized scales that shimmered with moisture. The small golden horn on its head was short, only a short section protruding, and its eyes were like eerie green lanterns.

As if sensing someone watching, it raised its head, its eyes shooting out a cold light, looking in the direction of the underground river mouth.

As if being stared at head-on by a natural enemy, Chang Kun tensed up and his face turned pale instantly.

Just as I was about to shift my senses, I suddenly saw three small white snakes on the giant snake. The small white snakes were swimming on the giant creature, chasing and playing with each other.

After a quick glance, Chang Kun didn't dare to look closely. He sensed along the underground river but found nothing else unusual.

Seeing beads of sweat on Chang Kun's forehead, Ma Zhao asked, "Brother Chang, what's wrong? The underground river water has been tested, and nothing unusual has been found so far."

He thought Chang Kun was unwell because he had seen the blood-red river water.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Chang Kun gave a wry smile. That giant snake was not easy to deal with!

Just then, a hoarse voice came from afar: "Old Ma, is this the person you invited?"

Ma Zhao's expression changed, and he said urgently, "Brother Chang, the person who came is called Xu Jun. He's a team leader in the bureau, just like me. We have some conflicts, so watch your words."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xu Jun, with his hoarse voice, approached: "Haha, Old Ma, are you talking bad about me again?"

Before Ma Zhao could reply, he turned to Chang Kun: "Old Ma, why did you bring a young man over? He must be quite capable. How about we team up and take down that giant snake?"

Chang Kun was speechless. This guy with the hoarse voice was so direct. He was invited by Ma Zhao, so why did he try to poach people as soon as he arrived?

Ma Zhao chimed in, "Old Xu, do you have any good ideas?"

Xu Jun, with his hoarse voice, waved his hand: "What other good methods are there? It's nothing more than machine guns and cannons! Against heavy firepower, nothing works!"

Chang Kun sneered inwardly. This man spoke so lightly, thinking he could destroy the giant snake with machine guns and cannons?

Just now, I only glanced at the giant snake through my senses, and it already sensed it, let alone when I aimed machine guns and cannons at it.

The giant snake would probably notice the cannon as soon as it was set up and slip away.

If it retaliates again, Xu Jun can simply walk away, while the workers at the reservoir construction site will suffer.

Ma Zhao shook his head immediately: "Old Xu, let's not even talk about whether the cannons can destroy that giant snake. Didn't the site manager say that if the cannons collapse this underground river, it'll be a huge mess, and who will be responsible then?!"

Xu Jun shrugged: "I can't expect a horse to run without feeding it. I can't do that!"

"If you ask me, you're all overthinking it. Who cares where that giant snake came from? Just use heavy firepower to kill it! It's not human, after all. I've killed countless creatures with some power!"

Chang Kun glanced at him in surprise, not expecting that Xu Jun was just like the Chan Sect and Fahai, who would directly suppress anyone who was not human without any mercy.

If this kind of person were to encounter dog lovers in later generations, it would certainly be quite an interesting situation.

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhao snorted, "If it were that simple, why would we have been invited here? The bureau chief specifically instructed us to capture him alive if possible!"

"Bah! They almost killed someone, and you're still trying to catch them alive? While you weren't here, Captain Liu, the security chief, went to check the underground river mouth and almost got swept away!"

Chang Kun and Ma Zhao were taken aback. Was that really the case?

Ma Zhao turned his head and glanced at Old Liu, who was standing far away, before walking over.

"Old Liu, what's going on?"

Old Liu was a tall, honest-looking middle-aged man. Hearing this, he scratched his head sheepishly and said, "Well... I slipped and almost fell into the underground river. I don't know how, but I felt a current carrying me back up."

Chang Kun and Ma Zhao turned to look at Xu Jun with disdain in their eyes—this is what you mean by almost killing someone?

According to Lao Liu, he was almost swept into the underground river, and it was probably the giant snake that saved him.
