——Actually, there are several other big monsters in this mountain, but these big monsters are not as gentle and easy to talk to as Fengyue God. Therefore, when these monsters have something to do, the first thing they subconsciously think of is Qiao Xi, Fengyue God.
So Bai Li, who had the most contact with Fengyue God, was sent to run errands.
After listening to the description of the kappa's dancing, Qiao Xi touched her chin and stared at the shell, feeling very ashamed of the high hopes these monsters had placed on her.
However, he showed quite calmness on his face, and he quickly filtered through the monster illustrations that Sa Dou had given him in his mind, and then nothing happened.
Qiao Xi opened her eyes and looked at the pattern on the shell. If you ignore the size and the bright decoration, it looks like an ordinary deep-sea mussel.
So...is it mussel essence? Or what?
"Probably...it drifted over from the sea."
Qiao Xi pondered, then couldn't help but reach out and poke it, but the shell didn't react at all.
The little monsters nearby were still talking about it.
"Lord Fengyue Shen said it floated from the sea."
"Yeah, it drifted from the sea."
"Lord Fengyue Shen is so powerful, he knows everything."
"Uh-huh……"
Listening to this discussion, there was absolutely no doubt about Qiao Xi's words. Jiutun watched from the side and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.
——It’s really interesting.
Qiao Xi didn't notice the strange gaze of the Dajiangshan Ghost King. He did some research, but couldn't come up with any results. Faced with the expectant gazes of the little monsters, after thinking for a while, he simply said:
"I don't know what kind of monster this is, but there are some illustrated guides of monsters compiled by humans in the shrine. When I go back and check, I might be able to find something."
Although Qiao Xi failed to give an answer, the little monsters did not seem disappointed at all. Even after Qiao Xi said that he would go back to check the book, they became more and more excited, cheering and volunteering to help Lord Fengyue God bring this to the world.
The shells were carried to the shrine so that it would be more convenient for Lord Toyuki to check the book.
Qiao Xi: "..."
Qiao Xi sometimes couldn't stand the magical enthusiasm of the monsters in the mountains towards her.
Ahem, but there is one thing to say, even if the monsters didn't suggest this, he actually wanted to take the shell back to the shrine and study it carefully.
Shutun, who was about to leave, didn't know what he was thinking, so he turned around and followed Qiao Xi back to the shrine.
In the shrine, several monsters gathered around the silent shell with pensive expressions on their faces. Qiao Xi found all the illustrated books on the bookshelf that she had not seen before, and flipped through the pages.
Sa Dou and Ying Cao, as well as Shuten and Hongye who were guests, also helped in the search. While Ji Yao was busy, Bu Yue, who didn't know where to run, pushed the door open and saw another monster sitting on the corridor.
, his face sank subconsciously, and he looked at Shuten Doji in a unhappy mood.
But before he showed his hostility, his eyes were attracted by the huge shell placed among several people.
Qiao Xi took the time to glance up at him and smiled at him as a greeting, then lowered her head and flipped through the book to search.
Bu Yue: "..."
#I was ignored by my younger brother and I was unhappy.#
Unhappy, Fuyuki squinted his eyes and glanced at Shuton. Because the pure aura and demonic energy in the shrine were not particularly suitable, Shuten had perfectly restrained his demonic aura, so Fuyue did not immediately move.
Feel the powerful demonic power in him.
But I have to say that as a martial arts god who daily acts coquettishly to his younger brother(?) and also runs out to challenge all kinds of big monsters, no matter how perfectly Shuten restrains the monster energy, Fuyue can still detect something in his intuition.
.
So the way he looked at Shuten gradually became a little more eager to try.
But at this moment, he also noticed that his lovely brother seemed to be busy with something, so he didn't bother him. He waved to the little monster playing in the yard and called him over to ask what happened.
After listening to the little monster's narration, Bu Yue stared at the big shell for a few times, then touched his chin and suddenly said: "I heard that there is a monster called 'Jiao Tu' in the deepest part of the Yellow Sea."
"Oh?"
Qiao Xi also didn't expect that it would be Bu Yue who finally recognized the monster's true form, and he had to say that when he heard the name Jiao Tu, the first thing that came to his mind was that he was one of the legendary Nine Sons of the Dragonborn.
That pepper picture.
But then he remembered that the painting style of monsters in this world was always different from what he remembered. After thinking about it, he simply asked Bu Yue directly: "What does the pepper picture you mentioned look like?"
Bu Yue walked over and forcibly sat cross-legged next to Qiao Xi, then thought about it and said with some uncertainty: "Well, I heard that she is a girl with a body and a fish tail sitting in a shell, and her attack power is not very high.
, I have never seen it, I just heard it mentioned by other monsters."
Qiao Xi blinked her eyes, and Sa Dou suddenly knocked on the shell and muttered: "I seem to have some impression of Lord Moon God's words..."
Seeing that several monsters turned to look at him, Sa Dou twirled his fingers in his hair and said thoughtfully: "The waters of Okinawa Island don't seem to be very peaceful these days."
"Okinawa?"
Qiao Xi touched his chin, and by chance, the Yokai Illustrated Book in his hand happened to be turned to the sea area, so he subconsciously landed on this page. When he looked carefully, it happened to be the illustrated guide description of the Yokai "Umibozhu".
"The largest ethnic group in the waters near Okinawa should be Umibozu, right?"
Qiao Xi looked at the contents on the illustrated book and asked casually.
Jiutun nodded, his eyes fell on the illustrated book in Qiao Xi's hand, and he couldn't help laughing.
The picture book shows the appearance of Lord Umibo, who looks very vicious, and the introduction that follows also shows how bad Lord Umibo is.
What a "monster of the sea", what "will bring disaster when it appears", what "will ask for the fish caught by fishermen at sea, and if they refuse, Umibozu will be furious and overturn the fishing boat"...
And so on.
Qiao Xi raised her head and met Jiutan's funny eyes, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and asked, "Isn't that right?"
Shuten shook his head and said: "I can't say whether it's right or not, but Umibozu is not a monster like the legend."
He didn't explain any more, but Sa Dou took over the rest of his words.
"Well, I also heard Master Qing Xingden tell you about Umibozu. He just comes to the sea every time a storm is coming to warn fishermen not to go to sea. However, because he looks so ferocious, few people believe it. There are rumors
Go and pass him on to what he looks like in the book."
"Few people actually know the real Umibozu."
Qiao Xi scratched her head, looked at Shutun, and asked curiously: "Have you seen Master Umibo?"
