Two Dragon Kings

Told by Ren Xia

Long ago, King Wen of Zhou met Jiang Ziya at the Wei River, securing his reign. In the early Tang, Yuan Shoucheng's divination by the Jing River led to the Dragon King's execution by Wei Zheng, just as the latter had seen it in a dream. Today, two elders at Ghost Gate Sandbar claim to be their heirs. Though they cannot command the rain, locals revere them as true dragons.
