Silver Dragon King: Why did it feel like so much water was missing?
"One more." Jiang Lan said, "Today two will become three."
Di Yue's tail froze in the air for a moment.
It looked at the Pill in Jiang Lan's hand, and then looked back at the jade-green Lake of Life behind it. An extremely fierce struggle was surging in its golden vertical pupils.
"Deal, less so no one can find out." Di Yue hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Jiang Lan grinned, showing two small tiger teeth, and quickly sent the water pump pipe into the lake again, and pressed the red button.
"Buzz--"
The iron cylinder vibrated violently, the copper wires crackled and sparkled, and the small iron box on the top emitted a plume of black smoke. Di Yue jumped back in fright, and four Dragon Claw slid on the moss.
"This thing won't explode, right?" Di Yue stared at the smoking iron box warily.
"It can't be blown up. It was blown up three times last time at Sea God Island." Jiang Lan looked calm.
Di Yue:"??? Three times?"
"Mom Bo Saixi has been repaired." Jiang Lan patted the cylinder, "She said if I dare to blow up Workshop again, she will tie me to a pillar and use it as a target for archery practice."
The pipe beeped a few times, and the turquoise lake water poured into the big bucket along the pipe. Jiang Lan lay beside the bucket and stared at the water, holding his chin with his short hand, his expression serious as if he was performing some sacred ceremony.
Doro also came over and squatted beside the bucket, staring at the rising water with his big purple eyes.
Di Yue stood next to him, his tail swaying anxiously. His golden vertical pupils looked at the bucket, at the lake, and at Pill in Jiang Lan's hand. He muttered, "Just one bucket... just one bucket... the lake is so low that you can't tell... you can't tell..."
When the water in the lake rose to two-thirds of the barrel, bubbles suddenly appeared on the surface of the lake.
Di Yue's hair exploded all over his body.
"Stop, stop, stop!" Di Yue slapped his paw on the red button, and the water pump went out with a "pop". A large cloud of black smoke came out of the iron box, covering Jiang Lan's face.
Jiang Lan poked his head out of the black smoke. His whole face was dark, except for his eyes, which were white and blinked, like a penguin that had just crawled out of the coal pile.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Lan wiped his face, but his hands were covered with black ash.
"There is movement at the bottom of the lake." Di Yue lowered his voice and stared at the lake with his golden vertical pupils.
The fog in the middle of the lake suddenly thickened a bit, and the sound of bubbling came from the bottom of the lake, as if something huge had turned over. The fluorescent fungi on the shore all dimmed for a moment, and then lit up again.
Jiang Lan tilted his head and looked at the lake, then at the water in the bucket, and thought seriously for two seconds.
"How about... smoke another half bucket?"
"Jiang! Lan!" Di Yue's dragon horns shook with anger, "Do you believe I picked you up and threw you into the lake?"
"You can throw it away, I can swim." Jiang Lan said indifferently, "And I still have your Pill on me. If I fall into the lake Pill, I will be in trouble."
Di Yue opened his mouth halfway and stopped abruptly.
His eyes turned back and forth three times between the small dark faces of Pill and Jiang Lan. Finally, he let out an extremely humiliating roar and sat down on the moss, holding his head with his two front paws.
"My majestic Emperor Auspicious Beast, why did I end up helping a little brat steal Lake of Life's water..." Di Yue's voice came out muffledly from the cracks of his paws.
Doro squatted by the bucket, stretched out his short hand and dipped a little lake water, put it into his mouth and tasted it. His big purple eyes lit up, and then he continued squatting calmly, with an expression like "I don't know anything."
Jiang Lan took out a lid from Storage Soul Tool, slapped it on the bucket, and wrapped the mouth of the bucket three times with tape.
His movements are smooth and smooth, and he is a habitual criminal at first glance.
"Okay." Jiang Lan clapped his hands and looked up at Di Yue, "You take a sip and we'll be even."
Di Yue raised his head and looked at him expressionlessly.
"I thank you."
"You're welcome." Jiang Lan said seriously, "If you feel like you're at a loss, you can take another two sips and I won't increase the price."
Di Yue took a deep breath, lowered his head and drank three gulps at the lakeside. He drank until his stomach bulged, then raised his head and burped, with beads of lake water still hanging from the corners of his mouth.
"It's okay now." Di Yue glared at Jiang Lan fiercely, "I have become an accomplice."
"You are." Jiang Lan had already begun to stuff the bucket into Storage Soul Tool, moving very quickly.
At this moment, inside Lake of Life.
A giant silver dragon opened its eyes and said to himself, "Why does it feel like there is a lot less water in the Lake of Life lake?"
Gu Yuena The huge dragon body slowly stretched out at the bottom of the lake, stirring up an undercurrent.
A trace of doubt flashed in her silver dragon eyes.
The lake water in Lake of Life has only risen and fallen for thousands of years. Even if those ignorant cubs in the core area come to drink water, the daily amount is only a drop in the ocean.
But now, the lake level is visibly lower.
It's not much, but it's definitely low.
Gu Yuena pondered for a moment and said to himself, "Did I sleep too long and remember it wrong?"
Impossible.
Dragon's memory never fails.
She slowly floated up, her silver scales glowing coldly in the turquoise water.
The mist on the lake was stirred up by her huge body, like boiling emerald.
Lake shore.
Di Yue was wiping the lake water at the corner of his mouth with his paw, when suddenly his whole body froze.
Its golden vertical pupils suddenly dilated, the hairs on its tail exploded, and the entire dragon froze in place as if struck by lightning.
"It's over." Di Yue's voice was extremely low, so low that it was almost squeezed out of his throat.
Jiang Lan was squatting on the ground wrapping a bucket with tape. Hearing this, he raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"At the bottom of the lake..." Di Yue's four Dragon Claw began to retreat uncontrollably, leaving a series of messy paw prints on the moss, "There is something coming up from the bottom of the lake."
Jiang Lan tilted his head, stuffed the tape in his hand into Storage Soul Tool, stood up and stood on tiptoe to look at the lake.
The fog in the center of the lake became thicker and thicker, the green lake water began to surge, and ripples spread from the center of the lake to all sides.
Doro holds half a Ju Zi in his mouth, tilting his head and looking at the lake, his big purple eyes reflecting an increasingly brighter silver light.
"Wow--"
A huge water column exploded on the lake.
The silver dragon head poked out of the water, and the water droplets rolled down the smooth scales. Under the light of fluorescent fungi, it looked like diamonds scattered across the lake. Gu Yuena's half dragon body emerged from the water, and its silver vertical pupils swept across the lake shore condescendingly.
Her eyes first fell on Di Yue.
Di Yue's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
"Emperor...Emperor Auspicious Beast." Gu Yuena's voice was low and cold, echoing on the lake, "What are you doing here?"
"I... I..." Di Yue's tongue was tied.
Gu Yuena's eyes fell on Jiang Lan again.
A little boy wearing Penguin Suit has a dark face and only his eyes are white.
There was a large bucket half a man's height standing at his feet. The mouth of the bucket was wrapped with three circles of tape. There was also a crooked piece of paper taped to the bucket, with several large characters written in pencil on it.
"Lake of Life brand mineral water, drinking it can cure all diseases."
There is also a line of small words under the note. "Limited to one barrel, first come, first served."
Gu Yuena's dragon eyes slowly moved towards the barrel.
Then he moved towards the water pump that Jiang Lan had not yet had time to put away.
Finally, he moved to the black ash on Jiang Lan's face that had not yet been wiped clean.
