Chapter 533: Dragon Vein

"Eldest Brother, Sixth Brother, Seventh Brother, Tiger, why have you returned?"

"Mr. Li."

Hu Yan Ku, the fifth son of Yuan Yuan Dingting, looked at the group standing at the door with bright eyes and widened his eyes.

They had not seen each other for nearly ten years.

How could they not be excited.

"Fifth Brother, if you want to cry, just cry; it's not shameful."

Yuan An said with a smile.

"Get lost."

Hu Yan Ku scolded with a smile.

Then he pulled his eldest brother Meng Chong and Li Rui toward the backyard.

Not long after.

The group saw Yuan Yuan Dingting practicing his spear in the courtyard, as well as his wife, Cui Cui Chuxue, beside him.

"Father, Mother."

Yuan An was the first to call out.

Cui Cui Chuxue looked at the group, especially Yuan An, who had grown into the appearance of an adult, her eyes full of joy: "Little Tiger, you have returned."

Li Rui smiled and cupped his hands:

"Marquis, Madam."

Yuan Yuan Dingting also put down the spear in his hand at this time, showing a rare smile: "You have returned."

Finally.

The rest of the people went to the side courtyard, leaving only Li Rui and Meng Chong in the courtyard.

Meng Chong: "Foster Father, a dragon vein has appeared in the Ten Thousand Mountains, and the Holy Emperor specially ordered the National Teacher, Li Brother, and me to come and investigate together."

He did not hide anything from Yuan Yuan Dingting.

Or rather.

The Holy Emperor chose to let him go south together, so he did not intend to hide it from Yuan Yuan Dingting, and Yuan Yuan Dingting was also originally a backup plan inserted by the Holy Emperor regarding the dragon vein.

Li Rui only discovered after going to the capital.

The relationship between the Holy Emperor and this Martial Saint before him did not seem as tense as outsiders speculated, and even the Holy Emperor's trust in Yuan Yuan Dingting was still above others.

Yuan Yuan Dingting did not show any surprise.

As a First-Rank expert, that dragon vein was actually discovered by him first.

It was just giving the Provincial Governor a favor.

Yuan Yuan Dingting said lightly: "According to the records from the time of the Taizu Emperor, places with dragon veins are often accompanied by dragon-kind; that Taiheng Mountain once had a great dragon coiling there, which was slain by the Taizu Emperor. The Ten Thousand Mountains hid an old dragon about to enter the First Rank and two Third-Rank dragons; the dragon qi is prosperous, so producing a dragon vein is reasonable."

Li Rui blinked his eyes.

He could not help but associate this with the dragon-slaying matter back then.

It was possible that Yuan Yuan Dingting had already been planning the dragon vein matter back then.

It seemed he saw what Li Rui was thinking.

Yuan Yuan Dingting gave the answer directly: "It is not as mysterious as you think; in fact, when I slew that great dragon back then, I was just guessing; I didn't expect it to be true."

"In the matter of the dragon vein, I am indeed not as good as the National Teacher."

Yuan Yuan Dingting said frankly.

It is said that there is a specialty in every trade.

In the matter of leading troops and fighting, he dared to say he was unparalleled in the world, but in the matter of seeking dragons and pointing out acupoints, the National Teacher was the first-class in the world.

Everyone in the world knew.

The National Teacher was the leader of the dragon-seekers of the world, and even the position of National Teacher was born for seeking dragons during the Taizu's time.

Li Rui: "Marquis, how do you see this matter?"

This time returning to Yunzhou.

The first person he sought out was Yuan Yuan Dingting.

Not only to let Yuan An return to see, to connect feelings, but also because he wanted to get Yuan Yuan Dingting's guidance.

As a First Rank, and having stayed in Yunzhou for decades.

The news Yuan Yuan Dingting could get was definitely more than his.

Sometimes, a piece of news can save a life.

Yuan Yuan Dingting pondered: "In the matter of the dragon vein, I am also looking at flowers in the fog; you two just need to assist the National Teacher in his actions. If the National Teacher uses you two as stones to ask for the way... you can refuse; I will naturally write a letter to explain to the Holy Emperor."

Hearing this.

Li Rui's eyes brightened.

He had long heard that Yuan Yuan Dingting protected his own when leading troops, and now seeing it, it was truly so.

Li Rui had a very good relationship with Gu Gu Changsheng.

But Gu Gu Changsheng and the National Teacher were the leaders of two parties.

It was possible that he would find trouble for Li Rui in the matter of seeking dragons.

Although the National Teacher's heart might not be so narrow, with Yuan Yuan Dingting's words, Li Rui and Meng Chong could act more freely.

"Thank you, Marquis."

Li Rui cupped his hands with a smile.

Yuan Yuan Dingting waved his hand: "We are all family; no need to say these things."

Chatting and chatting.

Yuan Yuan Dingting suddenly sighed: "Speaking of which, the person I admire most in my life is your master's master; we martial artists should be like this, and now he has broken through to the First Rank, ranking among the Heavenly Humans."

Mentioning Gao Tianxia, even a person as brilliant as Yuan Yuan Dingting could not help but envy him.

Li Rui murmured:

"Heavenly Human..."

The number one person in ten thousand years, how could one not envy him?

This martial arts world could still have some brilliance, could it not be because the East Sea City was still the number one in the world.

The next day.

Li Rui's group left Yunzhou and headed straight for the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Soon.

The group appeared in the Qinghe Enclosure at the foot of the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Seeking dragons and pointing out acupoints could not be completed in a day or two.

Staying in Qinghe.

It was inevitable that people would gossip, so Li Rui chose the Qinghe Enclosure as the place for everyone to stay.

This was built for the autumn hunt of the Annan Marquis Yuan Yuan Dingting back then.

Although the location of the autumn hunt had changed several times over the years, the Qinghe Enclosure had always been preserved.

And even the mountain scenery was right in front of his eyes, even more comfortable than the large residence in Qinghe.

According to Li Rui's words.

It was a business trip, so he could not treat his brothers badly.

Everyone had a place to stay.

Li Rui then led the three dragon-seekers into the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Looking at the compass engraved with the twenty-eight mansions in Fu Wei's hand.

"Technical work."

Ever since entering the Ten Thousand Mountains, Fu Wei and the three had been using secret methods to urge the magic treasure compass, according to their words, they were determining the dragon head.

There is an ancient book that says "Seeking the dragon head emphasizes the ancestral mountain."

Seeking a dragon vein is not just seeking.

In fact, the most important thing is determining.

The dragon vein is formless, wandering everywhere; if you want the dragon vein to truly exert its effect, you must have a dragon-seeker determine the dragon vein.

And determining the dragon head is the first step.

Fu Wei and the three were determining the dragon head first, and afterward, they would need the National Teacher to take action personally to truly determine the dragon head.

Once the dragon head is determined, the dragon vein is mostly determined.

Fu Wei pointed to a giant peak five miles away.

That giant peak abruptly gave birth to a branch, and nine residual veins grew symmetrically on both sides.

"Lord Li, the dragon walks and opens the tent, there must be noble qi. This scene before us is exactly the trend of the true dragon crossing the gorge mentioned in the dragon-seeking book; it is worthy of being a dragon vein place, it is truly extraordinary."

Li Rui understood only half of what he heard.

However, he could indeed feel that the spiritual qi of that giant peak was more abundant than elsewhere.

Meng Chong, Nie Nie Siming, and the others also found it novel.

Once entering the mountain, Fu Wei became exceptionally excited, and his words became much more; he continued: "This is the place where the true dragon passes through; as long as you follow the dragon traces to search, you will definitely be able to find the dragon head."

He only felt that he was incomparably lucky.

Originally, these dragon-seekers were in a situation of almost having dragon-slaying techniques but nowhere to use them, but he did not expect to encounter a major event like pointing out a dragon vein while alive.

Compared to those predecessors who had practiced hard for a lifetime but had nowhere to display it, they were undoubtedly lucky.

By comparison.

The others were much calmer.

Li Rui was originally looking in the direction Fu Wei pointed.

Suddenly, a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

Just see.

In a very hidden corner of that mountain peak, a slightly fat Daoist was nimbly traveling through the mountains.

It was precisely Wu De, who called himself the Treasure Daoist.
