Chapter 55 Mermaid
In the early morning, the East China Sea is filled with mist, and the colorful morning glow separates the sky and sea in the distance.
There were only a few morning stars falling in the blue sky, and a few seabirds passed by leisurely, flying freely against the blue-purple sea.
Xu Qi'an stood on the bow of the ship, facing the sea breeze and moving forward like cutting through the waves...
A few feet away behind him, a nine-tailed fox with a fur tied around his waist and a skirt sitting on the side of the ship, narrowed his charming eyes and looked at the sea in the distance.
In the sea breeze, her eyelashes tremble slightly, her profile is delicate and beautiful, she is a beauty with unparalleled elegance.
The ship under their feet is Si Tianjian's magic weapon. It can sail thousands of miles every day. The ship's power is the water and wind formations engraved by Sun Xuanji in the bottom cabin. Based on the construction materials of this ship, its service life is about two
moon.
Any longer, and the warlock will need to perform maintenance, replace the formation, and the materials that carry the formation, etc.
"Very novel?"
The smile of the nine-tailed fox was like that of an old Si Ji, teasing his younger brother who has not yet graduated, "Netherworld Silkworm is not far from southern Xinjiang. This time is your real trip to the sea. Are you yearning for overseas?"
He had been standing at the bow of the boat for several hours.
Xu Qian turned a deaf ear and stood looking into the distance. After a long time, he pointed to the end of the horizon and said in a low voice:
"Do you know what's on the other side of the sea?"
The nine-tailed fox was stunned and instinctively answered:
"Descendants of gods and demons."
"No!"
Xu Qian shook his head, turned around, his eyes burning:
"I originally thought there was freedom on the other side of the sea, but later I found out it was the enemy, and even later I found out it was a virus!"
Seeing Hu Meizi's expression blank and confused, Xu Qian felt it was boring.
It’s boring, you can’t understand my joke!
At this time, the nine-tailed fox reacted and said angrily:
"You're talking nonsense again."
Xu Qian asked back:
"What do you mean?"
It seems like we know each other very well.
The Nine-Tailed Sky Fox was obviously not an obedient woman who answered all questions. She blinked her eyes and said slyly:
"you guess!"
Who else besides Fu Xiang? Xu Qi'an ignored her and was too lazy to answer. He continued to look at the sea and said:
"Tell me about your experiences overseas."
The silver-haired enchantress restrained her flattery, looked to the southwest, and said:
"Sail another five hundred miles to the southwest, and there is an island full of caves. The sharks live on the island. The queen of the sharks is in the transcendent realm, and she is estimated to be in the early stage of the third level. That is our first coordinate after going to sea.
"When we arrive at the Shark Island, we will sail south."
Shark, Chaofan is not that good. Even if her essence and blood are drained, it will be of no use to me. Xu Qian's heart moved:
"Can they sing? Use their songs to lure fishermen out to sea and trick them into the sea to eat them?"
The nine-tailed sky fox shook his head:
"They want to eat people. Do they need to be lured with songs? Just make waves and capsize the boat."
This is different from the shark I imagined. Xu Qian asked unwillingly:
"What do they look like?"
The nine-tailed fox’s chat-like science popularization:
"The shark has a body and a fish tail, and its tail is covered with blue or black hard scales. The sharks have delicate and beautiful faces. Both men and women have extremely outstanding appearances. Well, it is said that they are extremely loyal to their spouses. Once a spouse relationship is established, they will only treat him (her)
)estrus.
"Once a spouse dies, a shark will no longer look for a new love, and will even live in isolation. A shark that is three hundred years old will form a kind of bead in its body. When you hold the bead and see your sweetheart, the bead will glow.
"
You remind me of the problem that troubles most young people, whether to choose the top or the bottom. Xu Qian complained in his heart and commented:
"A very interesting group of people."
The only regret is that the human body has a fish tail, which is very ornamental but not very practical.
"In addition to the familiar 'route', have you ever tried to widen the waterway?" Xu Qian said: "If you haven't found a similar species, it is likely that it is not on this road that you are familiar with."
"So you have never been to the sea and your experience is limited."
The silver-haired enchantress smiled sweetly, with a certain sense of superiority in her smile, like an eagle soaring in the sky looking down at the frog at the bottom of the well.
"Overseas is not as simple as you think. Although you can now travel to Mujing Mountain in the Western Region, Kyushu is only a part of this world, not the whole. You have no idea how vast the world outside Kyushu is.
"You don't know how majestic and vast the ocean is. Once you take the wrong route, you are likely to get lost in the vast sea. Even if you are a first-class martial artist and can fly with the wind, you will still be lost.
"I'll tell you some secrets that ordinary extraordinary people won't know. There was once a descendant of a god and demon who went out to explore the sea, but ended up getting lost in the boundless ocean. It would be more than ten years later when it returned to Kyushu.
"Do you know how it was recovered? This involves a secret of this world."
After saying that, the silver-haired enchantress stared at Xu Qi'an, trying to see the surprise and curiosity in his eyes.
"What a secret!"
Xu Qian asked casually.
It was nothing more than circling the world, and then realizing that the world was round, he complained in his heart.
The Nine-Tailed Sky Fox was dissatisfied with his attitude and snorted, changing his mind and not intending to tell him what the real world was like.
For example, outside Kyushu, on the vast ocean, there are not only islands, but also boundless vast land.
For example, after wandering for several years, the descendant of gods and demons flew in one direction, only to return to Kyushu and discover that the world is round.
Although these secrets are not important, they are related to the nature of heaven and earth.
After Xu Ningyan was promoted to the first rank, his attitude became so arrogant. She was not happy to tell him this.
Let him be an ignorant native of Kyushu.
"Among the routes you know, are there any descendants of second-level gods and demons?" Xu Qian asked.
The silver-haired enchantress shook her head:
"The master of this country can conquer all the settlements of descendants of gods and demons on the path by himself."
This is a bit uncomfortable. All that is left behind are crooked melons and cracked dates, which are useless. Xu Qian frowned.
It is almost impossible to advance to a half-step Martial God by relying on the essence and blood of the third level. Although quantitative changes can lead to qualitative changes, Xu Qi'an himself does not know where the limit of this quantity is.
Perhaps killing all the third-level people in Jiuzhou, including the descendants of gods and demons, may not be able to support his promotion to a half-step Martial God.
"Originally, it's just a matter of going out to sea to try your luck. Don't have high expectations. However, after passing the Merman Island, you may be able to gain something by going eight hundred miles south. It's a very interesting place there."
The nine-tailed fox didn't stop talking.
"Where?" Xu Qian asked.
But the silver-haired enchantress gave it a try and didn't tell him.
The two of them wandered in the sea for three days. On the fourth day, Xu Qi'an's consciousness was immersed in the fragments of the Book of the Earth, and he discovered that the light clusters corresponding to the eight fragments in the chaotic space had become extremely dim.
This means that the connection between the fragment in his hand and the other eight fragments has been extremely weak. In layman's terms, there is no signal.
It feels like I will drift out of contact in a few days. His consciousness was immersed in the book on the ground. When his ears moved, he heard the soft and sweet voice of the silver-haired enchantress:
"That's the Shark Island over there."
Xu Qian quickly opened his eyes and saw the tall figure of the nine-tailed fox standing on the bow of the ship, pointing to the end of the horizon.
There is a vague outline of another island.
Due to the distance and angle, only a corner of the island can be seen, and it is impossible to tell how big it is.
The silver-haired enchantress smiled and said:
"The sharks have a relatively gentle temperament. We can go there as guests and find out if there are any settlements under the sea where the descendants of gods and demons live. You know, the descendants of gods and demons with water attributes like to live in the sea.
"And the seabed is not a realm we are familiar with. Sharks can live on both land and seabed."
Although she went to sea several times, she never explored the bottom of the sea.
Vixens are not good at water fighting. If they are unlucky and encounter a water-type supernatural being of the same level, they are likely to overturn.
Of course, a vulgar warrior has no such concerns. Even if he is attacked by an extraordinary water element in the same realm, the warrior can rely on his vulgarity to return to the sea unharmed after taking the most vicious beating.
"Well, if I remember correctly, the Mermaid Queen is not yet married. Xu Yinluo can tame her and take her with her, so that she can be blessed when she is lonely." The vixen said with a charming smile.
"Teasing me will make you happy?" Xu Qian glanced at her and changed the subject:
"Well, without further ado, let's go to the Shark Island to get some information."
Just as he was talking, the turbulent blue waves brought a floating corpse. The body of this corpse had been soaked and turned white. The upper body was similar to that of a human woman. The hair was dark green and there was a row of small dorsal fins on the back.
The lower body should have a fish tail. The reason why I say so is because the tail was broken at the waist, and the cut was bloody and bloody, as if it had been bitten off by some kind of monster.
This shark was wearing a light armor woven with vines. The flesh and blood inside the light armor was bloody, and he had been dead for a long time.
"Huh!"
The nine-tailed sky fox examined the corpse for a moment and said:
"This is the shark queen's bodyguard. Well, it seems the sharks are in trouble."
