It was Mr. Shuangyue. Bai Ya was convinced that it did come from his mouthpiece, his lips and teeth. He heard his question and answered him. So Bai Ya moved his head to the other side and saw that the guy was actually
He had been sitting on the rocks near him, looking like he was doing nothing. He had the Demon-Sealing Blade hanging on his waist, and it seemed that he had taken it back from him. There were bundles piled next to the rocks, which were the luggage they had left on the shore.
Why didn't you find him? Maybe I was sleeping too deeply and was a little confused, or maybe Shuangyue-kun forgot to resume breathing after he came ashore.
Never mind.
The two people came over, and Bai Ya stared at Liu Shenghan with some disbelief in his eyes.
"Are you okay?"
"It's impossible to say it's okay." She smiled, as before, "It's just that I recover faster."
"How did you..." Bai Ya paused, coughed a few times, and then continued, "If I weren't quite confident in my feelings about life, I would probably suspect that we were all dead, and then that guy came to take us away.
"
"Don't add random tasks." Lord Shuangyue looked at him sideways, "That's a matter of black and white."
Bai Ya pressed his eyes with the palms of his hands, rubbed them, and tried to move his shoulder blades. The crackling sound made Qi Huan tremble, and then he glanced at Shuangyue Jun, as if he still held a grudge against the dislocated arm.
In the heart. The latter didn't take it seriously, with an innocent look on his face that he had long forgotten.
Bai Ya put his hands on the ground and slowly sat up with Shenghan's help. He found that although the place where he was lying was sandy ground, it was separated by a thin layer of silk clothes. Strange to say, as long as it was covered with
It, this harsh sand has become as soft as cotton.
Miss Quan came over. Bai Ya wanted to say something, but for a moment he didn't know where to start. She was half-lying on the ground, and the end of her long blue skirt covered the top of her tail fin and was integrated with the hem. Her hair was originally fluffy in the water.
When attached to the body, it looks like wet silk, delicate and sticky.
"How could you come to such a dangerous place?" He opened his mouth and asked, "Isn't it dangerous on the sea? Who allowed you to be alone?"
Miss Quan suddenly became panicked and quickly waved her hands to explain: "No, it's not...I came with grandma, and everyone is here too. They are all guarding under the sea, where they can see us..."
Qi Huan scolded him: "What's wrong with you? It's rare for a little girl to care about you so much. If you're not touched, forget it. Just blame others. You deserve to have no friends if you're so cruel."
"...I didn't. Forget it." Bai Ya shook his head, and then asked, "Your grandma? Did she actually come to the shore?"
"Yes. I originally wanted to come up, but they refused to agree. But my grandma suddenly said that she wanted to see you. At that time, you left without even saying hello, so we had no choice but to come up to you. Since grandma
They all came, and I said I wanted to come too, and they relented. After all, it’s not a good thing that the team is too scattered. It’s more convenient this way.”
"In human terms, you are becoming more and more fluent." Bai Ya looked at her and sighed softly, "But...how could we just leave without saying hello?"
He looked back at the other people. Qi Huan then explained that they chatted with Miss Quan all day yesterday, and she learned Mandarin very quickly. They also told her many life and legends on the land, all of which made her
It was strange. It was said that Qi Huan planned to teach her a few dialects, but Liu Shenghan slapped her on the head before she could speak. Bai Ya didn't need to think too much, it was probably some curse word.
Then, they finally told Bai Ya what happened after he lost consciousness.
That stone dragon was the envoy left by the real dragon clan. It was not a real dragon, but some kind of creature. Liu Shenghan injected spiritual power into it, making it temporarily controlled by them. Then, they went to the deep seabed
——Looking for traces of Bai Ya in a place further away than the palace on the first floor. Finally they found it, and he had fallen into a coma. What was strange was that the deep sea guardian dragons who were originally planning to attack him were still, probably because of the impact.
Fortunately, it would not interfere with their rescue.
"What about...the orb?" Bai Ya asked, "It seems to have been stolen by me..."
"Indeed, you broke it." Qi Huan spread his hands, "Although I don't know how, we can't explain it to the shark clan now."
"……Feel sorry."
He said this to Miss Quan, with real guilt in his eyes. Miss Quan shook her head, feeling that it was not necessary, but could not see the sadness or joy.
"Where is Oreki Tam?" He continued to ask, "The waist tag. Is the waist tag still there? Have you found it?"
"What...?" Obviously, Qi Huan had forgotten this a long time ago, but he quickly realized, "Oh, you mean the thing given to us by Gandharva, the God of Fragrance? Isn't it always on you?
?Why did you take that thing out?"
So Bai Ya explained. He briefly talked about his experiences in the deep sea, the crystal coffins, the human colossus, the sealed sharks who faced him at all times, the waist badge that guided him, and
There is...a suspected missing consort.
When he finished speaking, none of them could react, and even Lord Shuangyue didn't say anything. Although they had been exposed to many bizarre things, according to Bai Ya's description, it still made people feel extremely fantasy.
Qi Huan sighed: "You... I can't even have nightmares."
"I did dream - but not this. I'll tell you later."
"The one you're talking about looks like a shark's tomb." Miss Quan suddenly said.
"You know this?" They looked at her at the same time.
"Ah, I, I'm... not sure. This is a story my grandma told me very early. Don't worry, I'll ask her. Since Mr. Bai has woken up, I'll call her over."
"No need, we'll go over there." Liu Shenghan stood up and stretched out his hand to pull Bai Ya, "There's no reason to let the old man leave."
"It doesn't matter, my grandma is in good health."
After saying that, Miss Quan headed towards the sea without looking back. Bai Ya stood up, ready to clean up, and went with them to a row of rocks on the seaside. Bai Ya felt that his feet were weak, and the long-lost gravity seemed heavier, and his body
Lack of exercise also makes me look more weak. Every step is like stepping on cotton. However, others said that they felt the same yesterday. Just get used to it. Qianqian.
Qi Huan suddenly remembered something and said to Bai Ya:
"By the way, there is a big white shell with you, and we brought it back too."
"That's a clam." Liu Shenghan corrected.
"Oh, Tridacna. Hey, they're all the same."
Lord Shuangyue was very interested in his dream. But before he asked, Qi Huan mentioned other topics.
"Have you met Miss Quan's grandma?"
"Actually, no." Bai Ya said, "I couldn't see her clearly."
"Her tail is very - very big and very beautiful." Qi Huan said, "You will see it right away. She...is exactly the same as the woman I saw in the hallucination."
"What hallucination?"
"What Shilong showed me... Lord Shuangyue said that the person who negotiated with the Dragon Clan back then was her grandma. We didn't even know it. It was such a coincidence. It was also her old man who represented the Sharman Clan and refused to be taken back by the Dragon Clan.
Orb’s request.”
"That's her?"
Just as he was talking, a golden ring appeared above the sea. The light was very dazzling and getting closer and closer. Bai Ya even felt that it was like the sun in the sky had fallen into the sea and was slowly floating upward.
With the help of Miss Quan, the old man emerged from the water. Her appearance was very old, which was rare among the sharks.
See, she looks like a centenarian on land. But her tail is so abrupt - so beautiful that it looks like it was spliced together. The same goes for the fins on her arms and face, every fine scale.
They all emit tiny, colorful lights, making you feel like an old man buried in a pile of treasures.
Her hair is almost the same as Miss Quan's, just grayer and duller.
The old man was leaning on the rock. She smiled and pursed her lips. She may not have any teeth, which is very similar to ordinary old people. It is difficult for people to think that she is one with this beautiful tail - even if it is true
She was placed in front of them like this. She was still wearing clothes that seemed to be worn by humans.
They looked towards the distance, and it seemed that three or four sharks had emerged from the sea and were watching from a distance. They kept a proper distance and would not let this group of humans out of sight, but they would not let them either
Feel uncomfortable.
"Did you... negotiate with the Dragon Clan back then?" Bai Ya asked tentatively.
The old man nodded and said, "It's me."
Her voice is also very old. Maybe her days are numbered. But her tail is so beautiful and dazzling.
"It's really dangerous on the shore... You shouldn't come up here. We will definitely go back and won't leave so easily. If you are seen like this by people on the island, I'm afraid..."
"There is no one here." She smiled, with fine wrinkles appearing on her face, "Don't worry. Do you all think, how come I have such a tail? Humans are all curious."
Several people who had their feelings expressed were a little embarrassed. Qi Huan smiled sheepishly and responded:
"To be honest, I wanted to ask you when I saw you yesterday. I always thought it was not polite. Do all elderly sharks have tail fins like this?"
"We will all do it. But when we get to this point, it proves that we don't have much time." These words sounded cruel, but the old man downplayed it, "All the spiritual power in our bodies will be stimulated at a certain moment, without reservation. The original old
The scales will fall off and be replaced by new, bright and strong scales. The scars and wounds on the body will also heal as much as possible. We will keep this appearance until we die - better than when we were young. As for what will happen?
How long it will last is uncertain."
Liu Shenghan said that in the human world, this is called returning to the light. The old shark seemed to know this word and nodded in agreement.
"I'm sorry, old man. I couldn't bring the orb back."
"It's nothing. There is no chance of winning against the Dragon Clan."
"I know you want to wait for me to wake up because you have something important to say to me. But before that, can I ask you some questions?"
"Of course. Just say so, I will answer all your questions."
Bai Ya adjusted his sitting posture, frowned, and asked quite seriously:
"The most important reason why you refused to return the Dragon Balls back then was actually because you expected that the relationship between the sharks would be broken and that the big family of the sharks would become as disorganized as it is today. Is that right?"
The old shark nodded slowly, then shook his head.
"You are very smart and have stated the reasons why most of the family members are unwilling. But as far as I'm concerned, we will lose the opportunity to go ashore forever. This is the most important thing."
"Why is this the most important?" Bai Ya was puzzled, "Isn't this the most... superficial reason?"
