I, disguised as a white dragon, was supported by the state.

She had only mentioned it a few times before and felt that the other party wasn't enthusiastic, so she didn't dare to say it again.

The color of the white clouds gradually deepened, and their area rapidly expanded.

Beside Guan Mi, Bai Lin's size was rapidly expanding.

In the blink of an eye, his original length of ten meters or so increased to seventy or eighty meters!

Even though Guan Mi already knew that Bai Lin's size was not what he usually saw, he still felt the pressure when facing this behemoth.

She used to be able to give Bai Long cut fruit to stuff between his teeth, but now she feels it's more like she should stuff herself between his teeth.

But her attention was quickly drawn to the rolling black clouds around her.

In the blink of an eye, everything else in her field of vision vanished, replaced by an endless expanse of dark clouds.

The white dragon's figure weaved through the clouds, sometimes near, sometimes far. Soon, blinding flashes of lightning appeared, and the booming thunder made Guan Mi instinctively feel a little scared.

Thinking that all of this was brought about by Bai Long, she straightened her chest and her face was full of pride.

……

On the elevated bridge in the southern part of Jiangcheng.

Chen Zhuo was sweating profusely, and his face was flushed unnaturally.

The car was like an oven; even with all the windows open, the heat was still intense.

He felt like he had heatstroke.

Worse still, there is no sign of the traffic congestion dissipating.

His head was spinning, and several times he thought of getting out of the car and finding a shady place to take shelter, but the car had already driven onto the overpass, and there was nowhere to go if he got out!

Just as he was debating whether to shamelessly go to the car next to him to use the air conditioning, and was worried that he would be rejected as a lunatic, a gust of wind suddenly blew in from the car window.

This breeze no longer carried the heat of before; instead, it brought a refreshing coolness that made his soul cheer.

Chen Zhuo looked up and was surprised to find that the sky had darkened without him noticing.

The wind is getting stronger.

The air was filled with moisture.

When a flash of lightning illuminated the sky, his consciousness was pulled back from its daze, and he craned his neck to look up at the sky.

This was the first time he had ever looked forward to rain so much.

……

Li Qi looked up at the sky.

As he watched the sky suddenly rise and the sweltering air cool down, he still felt a sense of unreality.

Could it be that there really is a deity who heard my prayers?

He was pleasantly surprised, but also felt apprehensive.

He recalled that he had secretly cursed "damn God" just a few days ago.

Amidst the flashes of lightning and thunder in the sky, Li Qi trembled in fright and instinctively knelt on the ground.

As he looked up, he vaguely saw a huge white shadow flash by in the black clouds.

The shape appears to be a dragon.

Do dragons really exist in the world?

Or are you dazzled?

Without thinking twice, Li Qi clasped his hands together and said with piety and reverence, "Thank you, Dragon King, for the rain..."

He had barely uttered the first word when he felt a dampness on his head.

The sound of pattering followed immediately, as the torrential rain pounded on the kiwi leaves, splashing up sprays of water.

The rain soaked him to the bone, but Li Qi was exceptionally excited.

……

The heavy rain lasted for more than half an hour.

Some areas of Jiangcheng experienced flooding, but no major incidents occurred.

The city, which had been sweltering like a sauna, experienced a sudden drop in temperature after the heavy rain, prompting many to cheer that it was a timely relief.

At the foot of the Yellow Crane Tower.

At that moment, several people started talking about the rain.

"I wish it could rain like this every day!" a girl with pigtails said to her companion. "It's been so hot and dry these past few days, I don't even want to go out!"

His companion retorted irritably, "Do you think the Dragon King is your relative?!"

"I'd love to!" the girl with pigtails laughed. "If the Dragon King would send rain, I'd even be his concubine."

"Dream on," his companion said.

The two of them laughed and talked.

Guan Mi, who had been all smiles and smugness, pouted and thought to himself, "This girl is shameless. She wants to be someone's concubine."

A thin layer of mist enveloped her.

In the mist, Bai Lin, whom only she could see, paid no attention to the conversation about him, but instead looked at the Yellow Crane Tower in front of her and the surrounding buildings.

Some buildings clearly bear the marks of history.

Unfortunately, they were all quite ordinary.

Bai Lin felt regretful, but also felt it was reasonable.

The stories of these famous buildings are simply the beautiful fantasies of literati and poets.

He had recently visited Penglai Pavilion, which is said to have been inhabited by immortals, but only the environment was somewhat similar to what ordinary people imagine a fairyland to be.

Guan Mi saw Bai Lin's expression and immediately realized what he was thinking.

She had already vaguely realized that the dragon energy Bai Lin was looking for would be of great benefit to him, and that such a thing was clearly related to mythology, buried underground and hidden in the dust of history.

“The Yellow Crane Tower was rebuilt in the last century, and here…” she explained in detail, “Although Mr. Bai may not find it particularly remarkable, because of this land, many famous people have lived here, and many well-known poems have been written here. They adorn this place like stars, which is why it has such a great reputation.”

"And the scenery here is beautiful."

She pointed into the distance, and Bai Lin's gaze followed hers.

Guan Mi suddenly smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Bai, I heard about a paranormal event when I was on 'Towards Science' before. The person involved happened to be at our base."

Seeing Bai Lin looking over, Guan Mi coughed lightly and said, "It's Professor Liu Sheng."

Bai Lin nodded slightly.

He knew this guy; not long ago, he had asked him to go to the Kunlun Mountains to find out the origin of that dragon scale.

Guan Mi said, "This is what our director said. He and Professor Liu are alumni and fellow townsmen, so they happen to know each other."

"I heard that Professor Liu was still a student when he went with his teacher to excavate an ancient tomb. Halfway through, they heard what sounded like opera singing in the distance, sometimes near, sometimes far. It was evening at that time..."

"They were terrified and hurriedly left. When they passed through a village, they found that there was no one in the village except for a few dogs barking wildly. At that time, they were ready to call the police."

Seeing Bai Lin's eyes light up, Guan Mi's gaze became evasive: "Then, they saw a group of people walking into the village, chatting and laughing. When they asked them, they learned that there was a big opera performance in town, and the villagers had all gone to watch it."

Bai Lin, whose curiosity had been piqued, was speechless for a moment.

He reached out his paw and tapped Guan Mi's head: "If you want to see a ghost, I'll catch one for you to see next time."

Guan Mi chuckled awkwardly, "Just kidding, I don't want to see ghosts."

Then she became curious again: "Are ghosts really in the world?"

……

Chapter 138 The Giant Blue Fish That Has Become a Spirit

Ma Gui didn't know if ghosts existed in the world, but he felt that there might be demons.

A few days ago, he was hunting a wild leopard cat in a mountain forest in southern Hubei Province.

Wild leopard cats are a Class II protected animal in China, which is why they are increasingly expensive, with one costing nearly 10,000 yuan.

For Ma Gui, this was a good business opportunity.

Since being expelled from junior high school for fighting, he has been loafing around in society and even spent two years in jail for robbery.

During his imprisonment, he heard about the sale of wild animals from his fellow inmates.

He's always short of money, and robbing students at the middle school gate as before is too risky. If someone takes it seriously, he's likely to get arrested. Capturing and selling wild animals is much less risky.

Like that fellow inmate, if he hadn't accidentally injured someone, he would still be at large.

He flattered his fellow inmates, extracting various techniques from them, including how to buy and modify air guns and set traps, and couldn't wait to put them into action after his release.

Over the past year, Ma Gui has become a qualified hunter.

He caught many pheasants and rabbits, and even shot two grey antelopes, which brought him a considerable income.

The leopard cat is less valuable than the grey goral, but it's still quite good.

Therefore, after Ma Gui discovered the leopard cat's tracks, he kept watch nearby and even set traps.

Just when they were about to catch it, the leopard cat nimbly broke free from the trap and limped away.

Ma Gui immediately became anxious.

He was no novice and knew that a live wild leopard cat was far more expensive than a dead one.

So he carried his air rifle and strode after it. When the leopard cat jumped into the river, he jumped in after it.

Then, he drowned.

Ma Gui can swim, but only in the doggy paddle style. Although the river is not large, the deepest parts are more than two meters deep.

He must have been chasing too fast, because when he swam to the middle of the river, his calf suddenly cramped up.

He choked on several mouthfuls of water, his body thrashed about in the water, and he couldn't swim no matter how hard he tried.

Ma Gui felt like he was going to die.

In the critical moment, he suddenly felt his body lighten, as if something was supporting him as he swam toward the shore.

Ma Gui scrambled back to the shore and saw what had saved him.

A big blue carp!

The giant bluefish is over a meter long, with lively eyes and unusually beautiful golden tentacles.

After the initial excitement of surviving the ordeal, Ma Gui's first thought was that he had encountered a monster.

He was initially somewhat apprehensive, but then felt immense excitement.

He knelt on the ground, shouting his thanks to Grandpa Green Fish for saving his life, while secretly thinking about how to sell Grandpa Green Fish for a good price.

So he hurried home, went to the market to buy all kinds of fish food, and rushed back to feed the big bluefish.

To his surprise and delight, when he called out "Grandpa Blue Fish," the big blue fish actually appeared.

After observing for several days, he discovered that the big bluefish seemed to live in the reservoir next to the river.

The reservoir was transformed from a lake and has a large area; it is said that the water has never dried up.

With his daily feeding, the bighead carp clearly became more affectionate towards him.

This guy is so smart, he's like a human being! He discovered that he could understand everything he was saying!

This giant bluefish is truly a spirit!

Ma Gui marveled at the sight, his heart filled with even greater excitement and joy.

After careful planning, he decided to carry out his arrest plan.

He first rented a pond not far from the reservoir, prepared various catching tools, and even invited two friends who hung out with him to help.

He lured people with food, telling them that he had prepared a feast in the pond.

The big bluefish took the bait.

As expected, after entering the pond, it scurried into the net prepared by Ma Gui.
