"That's good. If something unexpected happens, you don't have to worry about safety. There are a lot of real and strange beasts in the sea, so you need to be careful.
However, as we travel this sea route, most of the real beasts and exotic beasts are not strong, so as long as we are more careful, there will be no problem." Lou Chengxun reminded.
"Yes, I understand." Wei He nodded.
"Actually, this time, our original plan was not to meet the San Luck Taoist, but to directly catch up with a black-lined whale, kill it quickly, and then take it away.
That Sanyun Taoist speaks forcefully and always seems to have bad intentions, so we don’t need to have any contact with him." Lou Chengxun said in a deep voice.
"Do you know what his strength is?" Wei He frowned.
"At least we know from the person who escaped earlier that the Taoist San Luck had companions and accomplices.
We can definitely kill the Black Line Whale first, obtain it, and then find an assistant to deal with him afterwards.
There is currently not much help in the sect, and many senior brothers and sisters are busy, so we should stay out of the way for the time being. I wonder what Junior Brother Wei wants?" Lou Chengxun's words of caution are not a big mistake.
In someone's territory, they don't know the opponent's strength yet, and they suffered a loss before. Naturally, they want to achieve their goals first, and then look for opportunities to find people to beat the opponent.
After all, many of the masters of Xuanmiao Sect are busy and away from home.
As for the Sanyun Taoist, he is just a Sanren Daoist on the surface, but he can fight against the sect's Daoist with a Sanren Daoist. It is conceivable that he is by no means a simple origin.
Therefore, how to deal with this person must be carefully planned.
This is also the attitude and approach of many outsiders when dealing with external problems.
You don't have to go up and give a hard blow to anyone when you encounter anything.
We are all adults, and we must have a purpose in doing things. Achieve the purpose first, and then as for revenge, there will always be opportunities in the long run.
Wei He couldn't say he was opposed to this method, but he could understand it.
After all, this is the proper way to survive.
And if the power behind Sanyun Taoist is too strong, it is possible for the Lou family to compromise directly and pretend that it is nothing.
If you are within the Xuanmiao Sect, you may be able to seek help from the masters of the sect, but if you are far away in the deep sea, you will be beyond your reach.
"I have no objection. Everything will be subject to senior brother's arrangements." Wei He nodded.
At this time, in the entire cabin of the big ship.
In a sailor's room.
A man with a mustache silently took out a small black box from a hidden compartment under the bed.
Opening the box, there was a slowly rotating metal object placed inside.
This artifact is constantly sending out some kind of invisible message, sending a hidden signal to a place far away.
After checking that the things in the box were still rotating, the man with the mustache skillfully put them back into the box and put the box back into its original place, covering it up and camouflaging it.
The big ship rides the wind and waves, detouring towards the deep sea at a sustained and constant speed.
Along the way, Wei He also spent the first two days on the deck looking at the sea, and that was all he saw after seeing too much.
Since then, he has been practicing in his room to transform his power.
Soon, five days are up.
The big ship sailed into an endless sea area. In the field of vision, there was sea water and sky everywhere, and no land could be seen.
At noon, Lou Chengxun, Lou Shengyue, and several old sailors from the Lou family accompanied Wei He and stood on the side of the ship, looking into the distance.
"It's right here. According to the calculations on the chart, there is a group of coral polyps that the black-lined whale particularly likes growing on the seabed here.
From the information we collected, it was mentioned that the black-lined whale likes to eat a special kind of coral polyp here.
We also encountered two black-lined whales here last time. This time we are waiting here, maybe we will encounter them soon." Lou Chengxun asked the sailors and relayed.
Many of these sailors don't speak Mandarin and only speak a special dialect, and they don't know where the Lou family came from.
Wei He didn't care either. He was more concerned about when the black-lined whale would appear.
This is related to whether Jing Hongjue can continue to practice in the future.
"The time when the black-lined whale appeared before was between two o'clock and four o'clock during the day." Lou Shengyue said softly.
"Two o'clock to four o'clock?" Wei He was stunned, "What kind of timekeeping method is this?"
"It is a special timekeeping method introduced from foreign countries. It is very convenient. It mainly uses a thing called a clock to calculate the time every day." Lou Shengyue introduced it carefully.
"..." Hearing this familiar name, Wei He's heart moved slightly, but he didn't know what to say.
"This clock, according to its division, can divide a day into twenty-four hours, which means that our twelve hours are converted into twenty-four parts, and it is also precise to minutes and seconds. It is very easy to use." Lou.
Shengyue didn't notice and continued to introduce enthusiastically.
Wei He listened silently.
While everyone on the ship was waiting, they were in a dark sea area more than ten nautical miles away from the ship.
A pure white whale with a black line on its back was swimming slowly and gracefully in the direction of Wei He and others.
But halfway through the swim, an invisible sound wave suddenly made it move.
The sound waves became louder and louder, gradually becoming harsh.
The black-lined whale finally turned a corner, accelerated and swam in another direction, and soon disappeared into the distant sea.
on board.
Lou Chengxun, Wei He and others waited quietly.
Time passes little by little.
The sea breeze became stronger and stronger, the temperature began to slowly drop, and the time slowly passed four o'clock.
But there was still no trace of the black-lined whale.
"Maybe they happened to go to other places today, and we still have time, so we can wait a little longer."
After Lou Chengxun asked the sailors, he came to a conclusion.
Wei He also nodded in understanding.
After all, the black-lined whale is a living creature and cannot completely fix its behavior.
Everyone waited for a while, but still did not find the black-lined whale, so they went back to their rooms to rest and practice.
Just no one noticed.
Elsewhere, among the two sailors who were furling the sails, one of them had a mustache and lowered his head, with a hint of silence flashing in his eyes.
As Wu Guoying, who was lurking in the Lou family this time.
His mission is to secretly drive away the black-lined whale and use special props to temporarily prevent it from appearing in front of Wei He and his party.
The second day.
Everyone was still waiting where they were.
But there is still no sign of the black-lined whale.
On the third day...
On the fourth day, they all disappeared.
Now, not only Wei He, but also Lou Chengxun's uncle and nephew became anxious.
This has never happened before.
The fifth day.
Everyone decided to wait one last time, and if he still didn't show up, they would leave here and look for him elsewhere.
The sea breeze howls.
The air currents on the sea surface gradually became stronger.
Wei He stood on the deck with a calm expression, carefully checking the surrounding sea area, looking for any possible traces of the black-lined whale.
Lou Chengxun and Lou Shengyue, as well as some sailors, were like him on the sides of the ship, checking for signs.
Time passes little by little.
Just when everyone thought that today would also be a failure.
Suddenly an exclamation broke the silence.
"Look here!" It was a dark-skinned sailor with half of his hair shaved off.
He shouted loudly and pointed in a direction.
Although Wei He couldn't understand his dialect, he knew that shouting at this time had only one meaning.
He looked in the direction the man was pointing.
In the blue-black sea in the distance, there is a huge whale with a white body and a black line on its back, slowly approaching here.
"That's the Black-lined Whale...!?" He took a deep breath and felt instantly relieved.
"Yes, that's it! Sail at full speed and catch up!!" Lou Chengxun came over and shouted.
The ship immediately turned around and chased the black-lined whale at full speed.
There is a special whale hunting harpoon on the bow of the ship and the winch is slowly set up.
Although the black-lined whale is a strange beast, it may not be a real beast, but it is rare in number. Therefore, a huge hunting harpoon can also cause damage to it.
The most important thing is that the whale hunting harpoon is connected to the big ship. As long as it hits, it will be unable to escape the pursuit.
"Finally found it!" Wei He breathed a sigh of relief and stared at the approaching black-lined whale in the distance.
And where no one was paying attention, on the ship, two sailors lowered their heads and were preparing tool ropes. At the same time, there was a slight abnormal look in their eyes.

*
At this time, there was another small island not far away.
The rocky black island edge.
A strong man and woman in blue attire were quietly arranging something on the island.
On the beach.
A bald man with a black cross tattoo on his eyebrows was looking at the sea in the distance side by side with another man.
"This Wei He is quite strange." The bald man frowned. "Last time, Bola led people to ambush him, but he disappeared without a trace. I'm afraid it's a disaster.
Last time, this Wei He and his protector Yao Wan escaped from Lord White-robed Buddha together, and also killed the Five Dingshi Bodhisattvas under Lord White-robed Buddha."
"I know about that incident. Wu Dingshi was killed by Yao Wan. This is already clear."
Another person said calmly.
This man was wearing a light yellow cassock, his face was full of flesh, and his eyes were fierce. Where the bridge of his nose should have been, there was only a black hole, bare and nothing.
It feels even more fierce.
This person is one of the five great Buddha masters who are preparing to exterminate the Xuanmiao Sect this time.
Huang Shengfo and Condi.
In order to prevent the Xuanmiao Sect from escaping from the sea, Kong Di was ordered to set up multiple interception points in the sea area.
Here is one of them.
"The first time was Yao Wan, and the second time was Bora. Our actions against the Xuan Miao Sect caused the Buddha Hall to lose six Bodhisattvas. I don't think this is a coincidence." The man with the black cross shook his head.
"Forget it, no matter whether Wei He has any trump cards or not, he is surrounded only by the trash from the Lou family and not a single Quanzhen from the Xuanmiao Sect. This person is doomed this time. You still have questions. After catching this person,
It’s not too late to ask again.” Confucius, the Lord of Huangsheng Buddha, said casually.
He looked into the distance.
"I can only stay for one day. Tomorrow the action will gather and the Lord Buddha will gather. You will be responsible here. Therefore, everything must be resolved today."
"Don't worry, Master Kong Buddha." The bald Black Cross nodded and said, "I asked the internal staff to drive away the black-lined whales in the past few days, and let them go today. After finally seeing the opportunity, they will chase after it and will not give up easily.
It will be easy to lure them over in a while.”
Huang Shengfo nodded. In terms of strategy and planning, he was still very confident about Black Cross.
Wei He was involved in several casualties in a row, which shows that Xuanmiao Sect attaches great importance to him.
Now that the hidden power of Xuanmiao Sect has been investigated clearly by them, Wei He has also been led out alone, with no protective power around him.
In addition, he led a team to arrest him personally. Let's see what kind of secrets this Wei He has.
