"A group of white bones with human bodies and fish tails?"
When Lu Zhizhi told everyone what he saw in the sea when he fell into the water, Nangong Xun immediately let out a low voice, and then Su Rong said to Tang Ling, "Little...Tang Ling, the sea here is probably haunted. I really don't worry about you sleeping alone at night.
How about I go accompany you?"
Tang Ling: "..."
Everyone: "..."
"You pervert, you have no shame in Tang Ling!" Yuan Yulang suddenly puffed up his face like a puffer fish, as if he thought of something again, his face was inexplicably red as a cooked shrimp, "No, no, no... no!"
"I'll sleep with you." Wei Zhiming glanced at Nangong Xun.
Who wants you, a brat, to sleep with you?
Nangong Xun secretly said bitterly, the strongest one here is Xiao Hei!
But seeing the violent reactions of several people, Nangong Xun also knew that this was impossible.
Tang Ling is no longer Xiao Hei now and can stay with him as before.
"Brother Yan..." Nangong Xun unconsciously turned his eyes to Yan Liang, who was twice as tall as him when he sat down.
Yan Liang glanced down at him, really thought about it for a moment, and then shook his head, "You and I are both big and can't sleep on the same bed, so why not share a bed with these two brats separately so that we can sleep well at night."
"What a little devil, I'm already twenty-one years old!" Yuan Yulang said angrily.
"What are you thinking?" Tang Ling silently interrupted the argument between several people, "The room provided by Xuwu Mountain is a four-bed room. You four gentlemen have to sleep together?"
As soon as he said this, the "big men" at the table turned their heads and asked, "Why do you women live in a room with four beds?"
Tang Ling nodded, a little confused.
"Actually, Xiaosheng has to sleep with Xiaozhou tonight." Lu Zhizhi said with a bitter smile, "But don't get me wrong, women don't live in four-bed rooms, but men can only live in twin-bed rooms."
Xiao Zhou's full name was Zhou Fang, and he was the boatman. In fact, it was Lu Zhizhi who insisted on sleeping in the same room as him.
"It's just that the number of four-bed rooms for guests is limited. Except for a few monks who are really inconvenient to request in advance, the rest are mostly allocated randomly."
Lu Zhizhi then told him what he knew.
It is said that there are houses built by sects in the surrounding archipelago, but it is getting late now, Xuwu Mountain has not entertained guests for a long time, those houses have not been cleaned up, and the whirlpool has not been investigated clearly, so everyone agrees not to cast spells and go elsewhere.
So they all stayed in Xuwu Mountain.
There are also a number of single-person caves and free Tongbu rooms, but the single-person caves are reserved for high-level disciples of the sect to practice with abundant spiritual energy. Datongpu is located at the foot of the mountain, and the room conditions are very average. Xuwu Mountain did not use them.
Hospitality.
"I see."
Tang Ling felt ashamed.
No wonder Yan Liang started to think about sharing beds. It seems that not everyone has a four-bed room.
After the explanation was clear, the topic finally got back on track.
"What Fellow Daoist Lu just said, that white skeleton with human body and fish tail, is not a ghost, right?" Tang Ling glanced at Nangong Xun and remembered that in Xiao Hei's memory, he seemed to be afraid of ghosts.
I didn't expect to be scared at such a big age.
I don’t know how I survived those years as a ghost.
At the same time, I admire Lu Zhizhi even more from the bottom of my heart.
Not only is this senior very powerful, but his ability to gather information is also top-notch.
"With a human body and a fish tail, didn't you think of something?" Lu Zhizhi prompted.
"Human body and fish tail..." Tang Ling said immediately, "Mirage?"
She thought of the mirages she saw at the bottom of the city. Lu Zhizhi mentioned this just now because he was talking about the four major monsters.
"That's right." Lu Zhizhi's face regained its solemn expression, "When I went ashore and thought about it later, I realized that the bones might have been the mirage of one of the four great monsters."
"It is indeed possible for mirages to appear in this sea area." Yuan Yulang said, "Because this is the Sea of Void Mist. The origin of the name at that time was also because of the fog created by the mirages that sealed this place."
"Indeed, perhaps after being burned to death by the sky fire, these mirages turned into bones and sank to the bottom of the sea." Lu Zhizhi speculated, "Then they were brought up by the whirlpool undercurrent of the Dragon Sea."
"But I didn't see any white bones with human bodies and fish tails. They were just a group." Tang Ling finally understood why she was asked that question when she came to rescue Lu Zhishang.
"Perhaps something happened to those bones when you went into the sea and they disappeared." Lu Zhizhi glanced at Tang Ling. Although he had doubts in his heart, he still didn't say anything about the uncertainty.
After deducing the truth about the bones, Nangong Xun also nodded, "In this way, although the sky fire killed the mirage demons at that time, the spirit bodies of those demons may still be there, attached to the bones, and may use powerful spiritual power to interfere with the fallen demons at any time.
Seaman?"
So why did Lu Zhizhi lose all his spiritual power and almost die when he was at the bottom of the sea?
"I have also informed Xuwu Mountain about this matter." Lu Zhizhi sighed and said, "The matter of ancient magical beasts is not something that monks like us can easily interfere with. Since Xuwu Mountain was once responsible for guarding the mirages here, let them leave it to them.
Go deal with it, I just hope everything goes well and nothing big happens."
Is it true that nothing big will happen?
Tang Ling felt a little uneasy in her heart.
Xiao Hei's memory recall, the whirlpool of the Dragon Sea, the bones of the mirage...
Things that have happened recently seem to be related to the four ancient magical beasts. Why do these magical beasts that have been dormant for thousands of years suddenly gather and appear at this time?
But as Lu Zhizhi said, it's better to leave these matters to the big shots.
What she has to do now is to hide the little black thing in her body, and arrive safely in Fengdu to practice and advance, so as to enhance her self-protection power.
After returning to the room after dinner, Tang Ling heard words such as "handsome", "strong" and "envy" sporadically when he entered the room. However, as soon as he stepped into the door, the female cultivators all fell silent and looked a little uncomfortable.
Tang Ling glanced at it.
When they noticed that Tang Ling was looking at them, they all looked away.
Tang Ling was a little confused, but he didn't like to ask too many questions. After saying hello, he was very tired and fell on the bed, ready to have a good night's rest.
"Um..." Just as he was about to close his eyes, he heard a girl say cautiously, "Miss Tang, do you know the guy in red who rescued people on the deck today?"
Tang Ling opened her eyes and saw a sweet-looking girl in pink, about twenty years old. When Tang Ling opened her eyes, she took two steps back in embarrassment.
The boy in red...should be Yuan Yulang, right?
Tang Ling stood up, but before he spoke, another girl in green who saw the girl retreating came over, took the girl in pink's hand, as if to encourage her, and said to Tang Ling on her behalf, "I know you, Gu
Tang Ling, Rongyuan, I just arrived at the mountain. Some women are afraid of you and don’t want to live in the same room with you. It was my sister who took the initiative to live with you."
When the other female cultivator behind her heard this, her expression changed. She quickly stood up, grabbed the female cultivator in green, and whispered, "Miss, don't--she is..."
She is a master at using poison.
Tang Ling had heard some female cultivators talking about this when they were assigned rooms.
In fact, there were many monks on this ship who participated in the weapon-refining competition at Zhenchao Pass that day. During the half-month sailing, Tang Ling spent most of the time resting in his room. When he showed up today, he would inevitably be recognized.
As long as one person recognizes her and passes it on to ten people, her identity will be known.
It's a pity that she always wanted to hide it before, but she didn't expect that she would become famous already.
Such not-so-good names as "poison master", "poisonous woman", "offended the master of Dan Zong", "seems to be in league with the devil"...these are not so good names that are becoming more and more evil as they are spread, and once they are given, it is difficult to take them off.
.
Tang Ling was depressed at first, but after thinking about it, she felt it was okay.
