Chapter 737 A Dream Is Not a Dream

After a while, General Crab put down the book. The publication of "Records of Four Seas, Mountains and Rivers" is enough to show that there are many capable people in the world. Even if he is a righteous god, he should not underestimate the mortal world.

With this in mind, General Crab looked at the bed, stretched out his hand and curled his fingers towards Tan Yuanshang.

"Tan Gong, Tan Gong"

After the low and calm voice, Tan Yuanshang on the bed seemed to open his eyes.

The sleepiness had not gone away. Although his eyes were open, his eyelids were very heavy and could not be opened very wide. In confusion, Tan Yuanchang was slightly shocked when he saw the person standing in front of the bed, but he did not express it. He was not frightened, but just squinted his eyes and asked in surprise.

"Who are you? Why do you appear in my room?"

A smile appeared on General Crab's face.

"Mr. Tan, Gong Tan, but you raised a toast and invited me to come, why are you asking me who I am now?"

While joking, General Crab didn't hide anything and bowed towards the bed.

"I, Xie Qing, do the same!"

Tan Yuanshang was stunned on the bed for a while. Maybe he was old and didn't react immediately, but in fact, he was a little frightened.

"Xie Qing. General Crab?"

Xie Qing, the name of the righteous god, is also known among the people as Xie Lingguan, Master Kaiyang, and of course the most famous General Crab!

According to folklore, General Crab attained enlightenment through a crab in the river. Chengxing was named the Kaiyang Water God by Emperor Mingzong in his early years. Tan Yuanshang has personally experienced this period of history.

"Hahahahaha, it's Mr. Xie. Since Mr. Tan invited me here, can you give me a compliment?"

Tan Yuanshang showed some excitement on his face, and he sat up from the bed while holding on to the bed board. Then he quickly lifted off the quilt and stood up, and solemnly returned the salute to General Crab.

"Tan, I don't know if it's General Crab who's here. I'm really disappointed. General Crab, wait a moment while I order someone to prepare the food and drinks."

"well!"

General Crab raised his hand to stop Tan Yuanshang, who was about to call his servants, without changing the smile on his face.

"Mr. Tan's words are wrong. When you take a boat in Kaiyang waters, it is Xie who is waiting for you. As for the food and wine, there is no need to prepare them. Xie is planning to invite Mr. Tan to come and have a taste of what I have prepared." I wonder if Mr. Tan appreciates the fine wine?"

Being invited by the Water God was an exciting thing. Tan Yuanshang was depressed, how could he refuse.

"Thank you for your invitation, but I dare not resign. How are we going to get there? Do we need to order someone to stop the boat?"

"Hahahahaha, no need to bother, just come with me, Mr. Tan please!"

General Crab stretched his hand towards the door, and at this moment the wooden door of the house also opened.

"please!"

Tan Yuanshang responded and left with General Crab with a hint of excitement.

What Tan Yuanchang didn't notice was that although he stood up and lifted the quilt and straightened his clothes, he also left with General Crab.

But if you look back, you will see Tan Yuanshang still lying on the bed, with the quilt not even loose at all.

Outside the ship, General Crab took Tan Yuanshang to the deck. Although the autumn wind at night was cool, it did not bring any chill to Tan Yuanshang.

The two of them looked up at the sky. It was a clear night with a clear moon and few stars. At this time, the big boat was no longer sailing, but was docked at a certain section of the river. There was a faint fire in the back kitchen of the big boat, and it seemed that a group of servants were eating.

General Crab withdrew his gaze, looked towards the river at the bow of the ship, and took a serious look at Tan Yuanshang.

"Mr. Tan, please come with me!"

After the words fell, General Crab had already stepped out. There were rolling waves on the river below, and the water was rising up. General Crab was supported, and his figure seemed to rise and fall with the river waves.

Tan Yuanshang stood on top and looked down. From the water surface to where he stood, there was a drop of more than ten feet, which was somewhat unsettling.

"Mr. Tan, please relax and just come down!"

General Crab's voice came. Tan Yuanchang looked at the stern of the boat, and without asking anyone to explain anything, he just imitated General Crab and took one step forward.

As a result, there was no danger of falling into the river. The same current surged up, dragging Tan Yuanshang to the river.

General Crab smiled slightly and looked forward.

"Walk!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the wave carried the two of them forward.

The night breeze was blowing gently, and the river waves were rolling. The water seemed to be flowing continuously under the feet, but in fact it did not bring much panic to Tan Yuanshang. Except for the initial shaking of his body a few times, he soon discovered that he had not lost his balance.

The water flowing under your feet is not only on the surface of the river, but also dives into the river from time to time.

At this time, Tan Yuanshang will see the special underwater scenery, including groups of swimming fish, various bottom-dwelling aquatic creatures, and even some underwater monsters.

A big spiritual fish, a big turtle that can speak human words, a Yaksha with disheveled hair and a somewhat scary face, and a water soldier who wears armor but looks a bit like a crab.

Underneath the river was much livelier than Tan Yuanshang imagined.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa."

In the splashing water, they were lifted to the shore.

General Crab stood firmly, and Tan Yuanshang shook his head and stood still. There was a mulberry forest in front of him, and there seemed to be a glow in the soil.

General Crab waved his hand, and a few thin beams of light shot into the soil in the mulberry forest. The next moment, the soil rolled up as if something was about to come out, and then a wine jar flew out.

Tan Yuanchang looked into the mulberry forest. Thin rays of light seemed to be connected to some mulberry trees. If he looked closely, they seemed to be several chubby, crystal-clear silkworms.

"Hahahahaha, this is mulberry wine. Although it is not a famous wine, it still has a unique flavor. The silk cloth of the Mengtan altar can seal the original aroma of the wine and attract the aura of heaven and earth. I invite Mr. Tan to drink it today. This wine!”

After that, General Crab took Tan Yuanshang into the river again, heading straight to Kaiyang Water Mansion.

We drank and chatted together, chatting about past and present events, not only talking about the courage of the past, but also talking about some regrets.

Tan Yuanshang can get some explanations for some mysterious things in the world from General Crab, and there are also many unsolved mysteries that can be answered from General Crab.

There was no singing and dancing, not even any snacks, just drinking and chatting in the water house, but it was also cheerful.

When the atmosphere was very harmonious, Tan Yuanshang suddenly thought of "Four Seas, Mountains and Rivers" and asked casually.

"Does Mr. Xie know about the Records of Four Seas and Mountains?"

Of course General Crab knew, and had even made some calculations, knowing that the person signed by Lu Haixian was an official of the Ministry of Rites, so he naturally nodded.

"Of course I know."

"Xie Gong is the God of Kaiyang Water. Looking at it as a god, can the mountains and rivers geography mentioned in his book be true?"

General Crab refilled Tan Yuanshang's wine glass and answered with a smile.

"Not only is the geography of the mountains and rivers true, but even the story about the dragon turning into a dragon in the North Sea is also true!"

Tan Yuanchang was stunned for a moment, but General Crab continued.

"Xie doesn't know why Mr. Lu is so clear. He can't figure out who the old man he mentioned is, but what he said in his book is undoubtedly true. Not only is it true, but most of them are relatively conservative!"

With that said, General Crab also touched his beard. He had nothing to hold back in front of Tan Yuanshang.

"More than ten years ago, there was a painting of a dragon on a mountain in Beihai that escaped from trouble and became a real dragon. The dragon in the painting was Yaci, the dragon prince of Beihai who died due to humiliation and resentment. Legend has it that the dragon prince received a magic weapon. Dragon Pill"

General Crab tells a shocking story in a straightforward narrative style. He painted a dragon to escape from trouble and became a real dragon. He fought with his biological father in the North Sea and won the battle!

Later, a dragon transformation ceremony was held and he ascended to the position of Dragon Lord of the North Sea. However, a disaster occurred during this ceremony. A white dragon led the tide away, crossing thousands of mountains and leaping thousands of rivers, crossing the four realms and crossing the four seas. It’s for Mr. Bai

Tan Yuanchang knew what was written in the book, and Tan Yuanchang also knew a lot about what was not written in the book. The shock in his heart could not subside for a long time.

When General Crab said this, he couldn't help but sigh.

"What a pity. Mr. Lu is afraid that he will cause trouble because of his book "The Chronicles of Four Seas, Mountains and Rivers"."

Tan Yuanchang was still shocked by the transformation into a dragon. When he heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he looked at General Crab who was speaking.

"Why did Mr. Xie say this?"

General Crab drank the wine in his glass and said with a half-smile and half-sarcasm.

"Mr. Tan knows the emperor of the dynasty better than Mr. Xie. With Mr. Tan's wisdom, it is not difficult to figure out that this emperor has a lot on his mind. Come on, let's ignore this matter for now. I won't come home until I'm drunk tonight. !”

"You won't come home until you're drunk."

Tan Yuanshang responded, but his thoughts were inevitably towards Lu Haixian.

But tonight, Tan Yuanshang found that he had a huge amount of wine. He drank a jar of wine one after another, half a person tall, until it was gradually dawn, and he felt sleepy.

In the early morning, a ray of sunlight came through the window on one side of the cabin and shone on Tan Yuanshang's face.

Coupled with the slight shaking of the ship at this moment, Tan Yuanshang finally woke up.

Feeling the slightly dazzling morning light, Tan Yuanshang stretched out his hand to block his face, and then seemed to suddenly realize something. His body trembled slightly and he immediately opened his eyes.

What comes into view is the ceiling in the cabin. When he lowers his head, he sees the bed and his own bedding. When he looks out the window, he sees the furnishings in the cabin.

"Come here, come here -"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was suddenly opened, and a familiar old servant walked in.

"Master, are you awake? But you need to wash up immediately?"

Tan Yuanshang shook his head.

"When did I come back? Where is Mr. Xie?"

"Ah? Mr. Xie?"

There was a puzzled look on the old servant's face. Tan Yuanshang stood up and pointed in the direction of the cabin window.

"It's General Kai Yang Shui Divine Crab. I drank with him until dawn last night. Why did he come back after just lying down on the table?"

The old servant was stunned, and felt a little sad in his heart. Even the most talented and intelligent people can't stand up to the years, even his own master.

I can't tell the difference between dreams and reality. How could this happen to me? But this is the fact.

After hesitating for a moment, the old servant finally spoke.

"Master, you fell asleep on the recliner last night, and I helped you to the room to rest. There was someone watching outside at all times. You were talking about your dream."

Tan Yuanshang was also stunned. He sat on the bed blankly for a long time without speaking. Was it just a dream?

"master"

Tan Yuanchang did not respond, but looked at the "Four Seas and Mountains" on the table next to him. But at this moment, he was slightly stunned and reached out to take the jade cup.

After looking at it carefully, Tan Yuanshang asked the old servant at the bedside with some uncertainty.

"I seemed to have thrown this lamp into the river yesterday. Is this also my dream?"

The old servant had just noticed the jade lamp, and he was suddenly startled. His eyes widened, and he couldn't help but feel a numb scalp. He swallowed before speaking.

"Master, I saw you lost this jade cup yesterday, and I thought it was a pity. Why did you come back?"

Could it be

The old servant was speechless, but Tan Yuanshang was stunned for a moment and then suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hehehehehahahahahahaha."
