Inside and outside the valley.

Silver bubbles floated gloomily.

The Mermaids fanned their transparent fins and whispered, guessing what new changes the Dragon-men's visit would bring to the tribe.

The depth of the fish scale color seems to symbolize the age and experience of the Mermaids.

Those with lighter scales were excited.

Those with darker scales looked worried.

Sometimes there were many bubbles in a certain place, no need to think, there must be Mermaids arguing and scolding.

Pure white transparent jellyfish wandered softly, flashing with faint light, and as the sun set, the last trace of light between heaven and earth disappeared, hiding in the darkness.

Liang Qu lay on the dirt slope looking at the sky, concentrating on listening to the "A-Wei Radio."

Pingyang Prefecture.

Liang Residence Garden.

Late autumn.

The pond is full of desolation.

The lush weeds and shrubs withered for the most part, shrinking listlessly.

On the wooden frame built vertically and horizontally, the ship model over five feet long cast a shadow, the little beaver carried a tung oil bucket, performing the final oiling treatment, Long Pingjiang and Long Pinghe brothers were idle, helping out.

White paper spread out.

The big beaver squatted on the chair, holding a charcoal pen to write and draw, the new ship model gradually became clear.

Two months passed, the new assembled ship model was completed.

A Yuli warship, with high bow and stern, the bow painted with a Yi bird, the oars extending from both sides, any one of which can move independently, exquisite and extraordinary.

Practice makes perfect.

Compared to the first time building, the progress was obviously faster, and this was without the otter helping.

Splash.

Water poured down, seeped into the gaps, and flowed back to the pond.

The old turtle moved its four feet, climbed up the rock, lifted its feet to shake off the water droplets, followed by a string of little turtles.

The weather is cold and the water is cold, approaching winter, underwater is really not as comfortable as on the shore.

The usually noisy Old Toad disappeared, not seen for several days, leaving itself to occupy the pond alone.

Refreshing.

"Lord Wu!"

Dragon-man brothers greeted respectfully.

"Pingjiang, Pinghe?" Wu Wu Cangshou raised his head to look at the sky, "It's just Chen hour, why aren't you going to the office?"

"Today is a day off."

Lying on the round stone that the Old Toad loves most, basking in the sun, stretching out the four killing little monsters, collect 500 recharge cards for 5, 5000 recharge cards for 50, 8000 recharge cards for 100.

Task, while the old turtle is not asleep, Long Pingjiang hurriedly asked.

"Have something to ask!"

Long Pingjiang's face was unchanged: "Lord Liang went to Huangzhou for a birthday, crossing the Huai River is Peng Ze, I flipped through the River Patrol Office records, accidentally heard that the River God Lord Yuan, widely circulated and worshipped by the Peng Ze villagers, is a big turtle, curious, so I wanted to come and ask Lord Wu."

"Hmm... General Yuan, also of the turtle clan, I do know a little."

Long Pinghe was slightly happy: "Is General Yuan also of the Western Turtle clan?"

Wu Wu Cangshou shook his head: "No, General Yuan doesn't have much relationship with the Western Turtles in the Jianghuai Great Marsh, and they rarely interact on ordinary days."

Long Pingjiang let Long Pinghe not be impatient.

"Please enlighten us, Lord Wu."

Wu Wu Cangshou was straightforward.

"Hundreds of years ago, the Jianghuai Dragon Lord's Dragon Palace was completed, and all the beasts of the Huai River and the Five Lakes offered exotic treasures to celebrate. At that time, 'General Yuan' was just an unknown little turtle, don't know where it scavenged, and carried a strange night-shining coral tree.

Every night, the coral tree glowed orange-yellow, like a fire tree and silver flower, the Dragon Lord was overjoyed and wanted to reward it. 'General Yuan' asked for nothing else, just for essence blood, and from then on became a Dragon Turtle species."

Long Pingjiang was startled.

Didn't expect General Yuan to be a Dragon species too.

Half a relative.

Wu Wu Cangshou continued: "Among the Western Turtles, soft-shelled turtles, sea turtles, and turtles all exist, living in harmony, but General Yuan is different, its head is like a crocodile, its mouth is curved like a hook, its back has sharp ridges, and its temperament is fierce.

We call it a Black Crocodile, and in terms of combat alone, no one in the turtle clan surpasses it; it is what the world calls the most combative Northern Iron-Headed Fish, the Black Crocodile can compete with it.

And this turtle species is long-lived, growing steadily, can live to a hundred years, become a spirit monster, a hundred and fifty or sixty is not a problem, and after becoming a Dragon species, it doubles, two hundred is common.

It's just that this General Yuan is quite strange; as a Black Crocodile, it is gifted, doesn't cultivate other methods, but cultivates the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Method."

Long Pingjiang didn't understand.

"What is the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Method?"

Wu Wu Cangshou patted his own shell back.

"Look, how many pieces are in the center of my back shell?"

"Three pieces."

"How many grids are in a circle around the three pieces?"

"Ten grids."

"How many are in the circle further out?"

"Twenty-four."

Long Pingjiang thought of the mysterious turtle shell Liang Qu buried at the bottom of the pond, and faintly realized something.

Turtle shells have spirit, good at divination...

"There are twelve pieces on my abdomen shell, I won't show you. According to the human race, the turtle patterns on the back of the turtle clan have three grids in the center, representing the three talents of 'Heaven', 'Earth', and 'Man'; the ten grids around the three grids are the ten Heavenly Stems;

The twenty-four small grids in the circle outside the Heavenly Stems represent the twenty-four mountains, corresponding to the twenty-four solar terms of a year; the twelve pieces below are the twelve Earthly Branches.

So the so-called Twenty-Four Solar Terms Method is said to be co-created by the turtle clan and the human race, but only the turtle clan can cultivate it, and it must be a turtle clan with a corresponding structure.

Those who cultivate this method grow a year older and absorb twenty-four qi every four seasons, all have growth, the so-called older the age, the stronger the strength, and this method itself has the effect of prolonging life, a hundred-year-old turtle can live a hundred and fifty or sixty, unfortunately... few turtles cultivate it, and almost none succeed."

"Why?"

"The difficulty of succeeding in this method is extremely high. Besides talent, it is pure hard work. Before a hundred years old, it doesn't show its power, and it needs to adapt from childhood. In this way, cultivating turtles have no protection and are very easy to die young.

And when cultivating, there are requirements for the orientation of the cultivating turtle. Too south or too north is not good, the changes in solar terms are not obvious.

Only the Huai River area is most suitable, so 'General Yuan' should be the strongest since the birth of this method."

"How is the strength?"

"Don't know."

Wu Wu Cangshou shook his head.

"Don't know?"

"Cultivating the solar terms method, grow one year older, grow one point stronger, grow ten years older, grow twelve points stronger, there is no obvious realm distinction, must fight a battle to distinguish the winner."

I only heard that a Great Demon once invaded Peng Ze, equivalent to a second-step Grandmaster of your human race, and was slapped unconscious by 'General Yuan'."

As for the Peng Ze villagers' worship... except for individual special hobbies, 'General Yuan' is extremely sleepy, drifting with the waves, so that mountains grow on its back, people call it 'Shoushan'; algae grows on its abdomen, people call it 'Algae Forest'."

Legend has it that those who climb Shoushan can prolong their life and see immortals, don't know if it's true or false, but it is true that 'General Yuan' never opposes the imperial court, and the Great Shun and even the Great Great Qian always let it be.

Personally, I think this turtle has great ambition."

Long Pingjiang originally wanted to ask what the hobby was, but heard the second half of the sentence.

"Why does Lord Wu say 'General Yuan' has great ambition?"

Wu Wu Cangshou shook his head.

"When young, it offered exotic treasures, obtained the Dragon Lord's essence blood, and subsequently decisively cultivated the hard-working solar terms method, using its own Black Crocodile advantage to minimize the disadvantage of weak early strength. You can say it set the path it would walk for hundreds of years when it was young, what do you think?"

Long Pingjiang was thoughtful.

Heard today, eye-opening.

Didn't disturb Wu Wu Cangshou's rest, he immediately told the Elder the news he learned.

Stars hung high.

Peng Ze waves surged.

Long Long Eying and Long Long Binglin walked out of the tent.
