Chapter 118 Zhang Yu boils the sea
Mr. Jia can be said to be the most conscientious housekeeper. He spent the whole day in Linjia Village by the East China Sea, busy setting up and ordering the fishermen. Moreover, he also found out an important rumor and came back to notify Su Lin immediately. Who knew that Su Lin had just returned so late, so anxious that he was so anxious.
"Oh? Mr. Jia, thank you for your hard work! I wonder what the rumor is? Didn't the Su family know before?" Su Lin vaguely felt that the 100-acre deserted land in the Su family in the East China Sea might be quite a bit involved. Otherwise, with such a large force of the Su family, how could this large area of sea fields be left deserted there?
"I know, I know! However, the time has not come... the second master seems to be waiting for this opportunity. But... Now the second master has given this great opportunity to the young master. This may be the great fortune of the young master!"
Mr. Jia's expression was very excited, and his gray beard was trembling.
"A great opportunity? Mr. Jia, are you busy and confused? Second uncle gave me such a big trouble, could it be a good opportunity?" Su Lin sat down in confusion, and the classics of various schools of thought were placed on the table in a mess.
Faced with Su Lin's doubts, Jia Lao suddenly became unhurried, pretended to be mysterious and asked Su Lin: "Young Master, have you heard the story of 'Zhang Yu Boiling the Sea'?"
"What? Zhang Yu boils the sea? It seems a bit cooked, not sure. Boiling the sea? Can the sea be cooked?"
Su Lin was excited when he heard this, stood up and smiled at Lao Jia, "I said Lao Jia, don't keep it in front of me. Let's talk about what kind of allusion is this Yu Zhuhai? And... it must be related to the 100 acres of barren fields this time, right?"
When he said this, Su Lin remembered that when he arrived at the East China Sea yesterday, he stood in the cool sea water. When he just touched the sea water, he seemed to have been exposed to a strange force. However, when he looked carefully later, he could no longer find any clues.
"Young Master has never heard of Zhang Yu's story of boiling sea. This is a household name in Jianzhou!" Jia Lao looked at Su Lin with a little contempt, and then slowly said: "Zhang Yu is a scholar. One day, when he was about to rush to take the state examination, he would rest by the East China Sea and blew a melodious flute to the sea..."
"Old Jia, don't tell me. Zhang Yu is not right because of playing the flute... it sounds good! He was in love with the dragon princess? Then the old Dragon King broke up the couple and broke them apart. Zhang Yu was furious and boiled the water from the East China Sea?"
Just as he heard the beginning of the story, Su Lin looked at Jia Lao with contempt and told the plot behind him.
"Huh? Young Master. Haven't you heard the story of Zhang Yu Bohai? It turns out that you are recreating the old slave! Don't you all know this?"
Mr. Jia reported it and said happily.
"It's not that I've heard of it before, but... Isn't this kind of love story going this way? Mortals and Dragon Girl fall in love, and then they are blocked by the Dragon King. But... Mr. Jia, is this a bit too irrelevant? Isn't Zhang Yu a talented scholar? How can he boil sea water? Is the combat power of the Dragon King in the East China Sea Dragon Palace 0?"
Su Lin, who had already thought that there were fresh stories, suddenly lost interest and yawned, "Old Jia, you'd better tell me the point! What does this Zhang Yu boiled the sea and had to do with our 100 acres of sea fields? Could it be that he cooked the sea, right? But that's not right! How long ago did Zhang Yu boil the sea? Didn't this 100 acres of sea fields still have a good harvest in the past few years?"
"Young Master, it seems that you still have to listen to the old slave finishing the complete story. You should understand after reading this thing." Jia Lao shook his cuffs and threw out a broken green flute from it. He handed it to Su Lin, "This is the Zhang Yu flute that half-saint Zhang Yu had blown back then..."
"Wait... Mr. Jia, why are you inconsistent in your words?" Su Lin stared at the broken green flute and interrupted Mr. Jia, "Didn't you just say that Zhang Yu was just a scholar? Why has he become a semi-saint now? Is a semi-saint a cabbage?"
"Young Master, I'm not wrong! When Zhang Yu was playing the flute by the beach, he was indeed only a scholar's literary position. But later he studied hard and was able to achieve the semi-saint literary position. Just like, you are now a child, are you just a child in your life?" Jia Lao smiled.
"Dede... Mr. Jia, I found that you are worthy of being the slave of our Zhengheng family. I still don't speak, listen quietly to you finish the story?"
Su Lin finally decided to shut up and listen carefully to Mr. Jia's story. Finally, he learned about the whole incident. It turned out that nearly a thousand years ago, the Han Dynasty collapsed, and the evil scholar Dong Zhuo controlled the government and harmed the loyal and kind, but there was no Three Kingdoms that Su Lin knew well-rounded by the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period before the Qin Dynasty. With the help of the successors of various schools of thought and family, he rose up and successfully restored the country while the Han Dynasty was weak.
The Wu Kingdom was also established during that period. The scholar Zhang Yu rushed to Jianzhou to participate in the imperial examination. He slept on the east sea and blew the flute. The melodious sound of the flute attracted Qionglian, the third princess of the Dragon Palace in the East Sea. The two fell in love at first sight. Princess Qionglian secretly agreed, and the two decided to live for life.
Princess Qionglian even stole all kinds of treasures from the Dragon Palace, and even her own natal demon treasure, marsh croaker, to help scholar Zhang Yu to deeply think and have a clear idea. However, Princess Qionglian herself was discovered by the Dragon King. After all resistance, she was still locked in the mermaid cave.
Zhang Yu, a scholar who worked hard for Princess Qionglian, really lived up to expectations. Not only did he pass the imperial examination, he also won the top scorer of that year. He was recommended by Wu Kingdom to the temple to become a prison envoy of the Holy Punishment Department. In less than five years, he was promoted to the Grand Secretary and entered the Hanlin Academy of the Temple to become a Hanlin Grand Secretary.
At this time, Zhang Yu returned to the East China Sea excitedly and used the green flute that had become Hanlin Wenbao to blew the song that had agreed with Princess Qionglian back then. However, Zhang Yu's flute sound did not attract his lover Princess Qionglian, whom he had been thinking about day and night, but attracted the army of the sea clan of the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
The Dragon King knew that Zhang Yu was the Confucian scholar who seduced his daughter back then, and was furious and led a large army to arrest Zhang Yu. Although Zhang Yu was already a Hanlin Grand Secretary, how could he resist the East China Sea Dragon King, which was equivalent to the peak of the semi-saint, almost sub-saint?
Zhang Yu, who was beaten by the Dragon King of the East China Sea, was locked in the prison of the Crystal Palace by the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Princess Qionglian, who learned about this, felt aching in her heart. Although she was locked in the mermaid cave and thought about her mistakes, she secretly ran out and tried her best to rescue Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu refused to leave and insisted on Princess Qionglian to go with him. However, the army of the Dragon King of the East China Sea chased after him again. In order to help Zhang Yu escape, Princess Qionglian was caught by the Dragon King again and suppressed her eyes in the eyes of the East China Sea.
Zhang Yu, who escaped with tears, knew that he was not the opponent of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. So he returned to the temple and condensed a hundred volcanoes of holy power in the sea of wisdom with the anger in his heart, achieving the position of great scholars. He also built a semi-saint literary position with various past karma of love with Princess Qionglian. Finally, he stole the ancient artifact of Qiankun Cauldron from the temple, which was used to refine stones and repair the sky, and returned to the edge of the East China Sea.
Without saying a word, he first practiced the ancient artifact, Qiankun Cauldron Sacrifice, lifted up the sea water of the entire East China Sea, and used a hundred holy power volcanoes to cook the aquarium of the entire East China Sea.
At that time, the Aquarius in the East China Sea was killed and injured, and the sea water in the East China Sea was boiling, and the Holy Li volcano erupted one by one. The Dragon King of the East China Sea was furious and fought with the semi-saint Zhang Yu for three days and three nights. The sea water in the entire East China Sea was evaporated by half. The Aquarius died nearly 10%. The Dragon King of the East China Sea had to compromise and release Princess Qionglian, so that their human-dragon love would be fulfilled.
However, the Dragon King of the East Sea asked Zhang Yu to keep the Qiankun Cauldron in the East Sea, and use the power of the artifact to nurture the vitality of the East Sea and make up for the loss of life caused by this battle. However, the Qiankun Cauldron was stolen from the temple. Zhang Yu could not make any decisions privately, so he went to the temple to carry the thorns and apologize. Finally, the Temple and the Dragon King of the East Sea reached an agreement, and the Qiankun Cauldron remained in the East Sea to suppress and restore the vitality of the East Sea for a thousand years.
After the story was finished, Su Lin clapped his hands and said, "Well! The happy ending is not uninhumane. He actually supports the dragon love between the semi-saint Zhang Yu and the dragon princess? It's really strange! I thought the semi-saints in the temple were all old scholars?"
"Hehe! Young Master is wrong. Although our human race and the demon barbarians are hostile, there are actually two voices in the temple. One sect half-saint advocates conquering and fighting the invasion of the demon barbarians, while the other sect thinks that we can use the secret of thoughts to export our human thoughts, so that the demons and barbarians understand etiquette, righteousness, and shame, and know benevolence, righteousness and morality, and there will be no more harm to the human race." Jia Lao is also a juren's literary position, and when he tells the story, Su Lin also listens to it with relish.
However, when Su Lin heard the end, he broke away from the plot. After thinking about it, something seemed wrong. Then he remembered that Mr. Jia had not yet mentioned the key point. What does this have to do with his 100 acres of sea fields?
"No! Old Jia, half-saint Zhang Yu, cooked the sea, forcing the old Dragon King to bow his head. He was domineering and majestic, but... what does this have to do with our 100 acres of sea fields? Why did I become more and more confused after listening for a long time? Could it be that you asked me to learn that Zhang Yu and cook the 100 acres of sea fields? Then you have to find me an ancient artifact, Qiankun Cauldron, for me..."
"Young Master! The key to the problem is that the ancient artifact Qiankun Cauldron has come. The thousand-year agreement between the Dragon King of the East China Sea and the Temple is coming soon. Do you know where this ancient artifact Qiankun Cauldron... do you know? I guess... I'm afraid... it's under our hundred acres of sea fields!"
