Chapter Ninety-Eight: Monsters in the Sea

Previous Chapter

A table of delicacies was all put into Mo Caicai and Qin Keke's stomachs, no matter where they went, the most important thing was not to owe their bodies. These words are naturally on the lips of Miss Mo every day, and our Miss Qin has done a very good job from implementation to implementation. They ate to their heart's content, but in contrast to the two of them, it was the owner here, Mu Yutang. Since the first few polite words, she looked at a few people who should talk and laugh, but she really didn't take her seriously.

After eating and drinking, a few people looked at each other, and Lin Zhi came forward to greet the mother Yutang and said that he wanted to go back and rest. Mu Yutang nodded yes again and again, and told them to rest.

Several people who returned to the small courtyard invariably entered the flower hall and sat down around the round table, Lin Ye glanced outside, frowned, and gently twisted out a blue circle of light that was so faint that it was invisible, and threw it out. At first glance, a whimpering sound as low as a cat's meow reached their ears, and then in an instant, it seemed as if something had disappeared from their surroundings.

Lin Zhi shook his head contemptuously and said, "Mu Yutang is capable of this?"

"No, no, no. ”

Yuan Huan waved the folding fan in his hand, took it to his nose and sniffed it, and smiled with satisfaction, the spices prepared by Totan Cocoa last time really did not disappoint him, elegant and heavy. After he put it down, he continued: "Maybe, it wasn't Mu Yutang's doing. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Hehe, Your Royal Highness, do you see that her mother Yutang is the kind of person who needs to keep an eye on us at any time? With her proud nature, as long as a few of us are within the range of their northern tribe, we will not be out of her control. ”

Lin Zhi frowned, not knowing whether it was because of Yuan Huan's confusion or because Mu Yutang was indeed uncomfortable as Huanhuan said.

Seeing that everyone was not speaking, Yuan Huan smiled, stood up, thoughtfully poured a cup of tea for everyone, and then straightened his face and said: "After coming here, I have always wanted to tell you one thing, but I forgot about this matter before and after, and I remembered that I should tell you about it." ”

After hearing this, several people looked at him with curiosity.

"Ahem, sitting here is also sitting, you might as well listen to Yuan's story. Yuan Huan cleared his throat and said to them unhurriedly: "How old is Yuan, but he knows some very historical legends of some northern tribes. Of course, this legend is still a legend, and the authenticity is still to be considered......"

Looking at the prefix of Yuan Huan's babbling, Mo Caicai rolled her eyes and urged: "Huanhuan, let's talk about the point." ”

"How can the little girl be so impatient..."Yuan Huan muttered in a low voice, but when she saw Mo Caicai's slowly narrowing eyes, she immediately pursed her lips and said, "Okay, the next thing is the point." It is said that this northern tribe should be geographically close to the sea of innocence, and on the other side of this sea lives the well-known dragon god clan, and in the middle of the sea there was also another tribe, but most of the people almost never mention them, so it can be said that they are reluctant to mention it. ”

"Why, don't you want to mention it?" Lin Ye asked.

"Yes, yes, Ono always grasps the key points. Yuan Huan showed an extremely gentle smile towards Lin Ye, and Lin Ye turned his head away with some disgust. However, Yuan Huan didn't care about his move, and continued: "Next, I will talk about the legend of this race that lives in the middle of the sea and can be like a mysterious dragon. About 100 years ago, people in coastal areas would first worship the dragon god before going out to fish, and then they would put a piece of paper paste into the sea first, and before going out to sea, people would sprinkle some rice and dried fish into the paper-made boat, and then push it into the sea and let it go with the wind. As long as the boat cannot be touched by human eyes, you can really go to sea by yourself. I don't know what generation started the rule, but most of the people who went to sea believed that it would bless them with safety. The older generation of fishermen would tell their children and grandchildren that the paper boat that was released was not dedicated to the dragon god, and the dragon god did not look down on these crude things, but for the group of "guests" in the middle of the sea. The "guest" in the middle of the sea is said to be a monster with a human head and a snake-shaped monster at the bottom. The fishermen rely on the sea to eat the sea, and no matter what is in the sea, there is no way to stop them from going to the sea. And in the beginning, people didn't know how powerful these monsters were, and some of them took harpoons to provoke them, wondering if they would be able to sell them for a good price. But who knew that the half-man, half-snake monster was very powerful, and could almost overturn and sink the fishermen's boats with wind and rain, and almost as long as the people fell into the sea, few of them would make it ashore alive. After that, people no longer have the courage to go toe-to-toe with those monsters. Before going out to sea, they all prepare gifts-like food to bribe those things that are inhuman, and some fishermen who go out to this sea area will take the steering wheel of their progress as soon as they get close to it, set the direction and go elsewhere. This may also be due to the tacit understanding with that race, and it is naturally good for them to be at peace. Over time, such stories seem to have become legends, and people have gradually become accustomed to fishing near the shallow sea, and those who go deeper are naturally reluctant to go. Legends and legends have evolved on some factual basis. ”

After Yuan Huan finished the story in one go, he hurriedly drank a cup of tea that was already a little cool to moisten his throat.

As soon as he put down the cup, he listened to Caicai ask.

"You said all this stuff of legends about monsters, what does it have to do with us now?"

"Naturally, it has something to do with it. Listen to me. Since I heard that there is such a monster, I am also very curious, and I have rummaged through a lot of ancient books, trying to find out if there are any clues to check. The book records that there are snakes in the sea, and they are human faces, like to eat, do personnel, and try to live on land, but due to their own limitations, there are no feet available, and they have left the sea for too long and their lives are short. But I don't know when, because of the favor of the dragon god, they were given a physical structure to live on land, so the group of human and non-human monsters in the middle of the sea came to the land and built their own homes by the sea. Although they can live on land, they still can't live without the sea. At a certain time, you must return to the sea to absorb the essence of the deep sea, so as to recuperate your life. The book also says that they are well-behaved and gentle, and if someone didn't get along with them first, maybe they wouldn't take the initiative to get along with others. But one thing that struck me was that even when they came to land, they were still different from ordinary people, because they were unisex, that is, they could be men and women. The looks are also very gentle and beautiful. It also lives much longer than normal Terrans. ”

At first glance, there was not a single person in the forest who did not frown, even among the demons who had been opposed to them, they had never heard of the existence of such a character as hermaphroditism.

"Has anyone seen them, or are you talking nonsense?" Lin Zhi was the first to ask in disbelief.

Yuan Huan, who saw their attitude in his eyes, smiled in his heart, but explained very seriously on his face: "I said at the beginning, this is a legend, this is a story. Whether it's true or not, it's not all opinions. ”

Such an unclear answer made what he said even more mysterious.

Mo Caicai glanced at Yuan Huan, who was serious, walked to his side, and with a "snap", a slap slapped directly on his back.

He hadn't come to his senses yet, only to hear Caicai say: "I'm afraid you didn't see this in the book, right, did you say that Long Sakura told you to play?"

The only person who can shout the name of the dragon king so blatantly is the little woman with strength in front of her.

Yuan Huan smiled bitterly, "Can't you give me a little bit of thin noodles, so that I can hold up a trace of the feeling of an elder in front of them in the forest..."

"Hehehe, still elders, still thin noodles, what you said, Long Ying pulled me and wanted to tell me, but I wasn't happy to listen. If you cheat on a child, you will believe him. ”

Mo Caicai didn't feel that the dragon king was anything great, and complained, "You guys, you are ignorant, you have all been deceived by Long Ying's appearance! I have forgotten about this matter, Huanhuan, aren't those monsters in your mouth the sea snake demon clan." They ate the dragon clan's divine pill before they could barely go to live on land, and that was also a process of gradual evolution. Over time, they naturally get used to it. He wouldn't need Ryuzakura's help, and Ryuzakura just hated them for getting in his way in the sea. How could he be so kind. As for the magnetic homogeneity, it may just be caused by living in the deep sea for a long time, and returning to the land and slowly evolving, it should strip away the difference between male and female. It's not a big problem, and even if it's still magnetic, it won't necessarily affect their lives. As long as they can find a way to survive that suits their physique, they will probably be able to solve those inconveniences. ”

When Caicai finished speaking, several people, including Yuan Huan, grew their mouths and looked at her. The horror of this passage far exceeded the story that Yuan Huan had told before.

"Oh, don't look at me like that, I'm not a magnet. ”

"Lady Mo, you are more terrifying than those people. ”

Lin Zhi put away his stunned chin, patted Lin Ye's shoulder on the side, and said with some sighs: "Second brother, you are a great future lady!"

"Then you still have to say. Lin Ye glanced at him, but gently rubbed Caicai who stood up to his side and sat down.

"Hmph, where am I terrifying?" Caicai nested in Lin Ye's arms, and then rolled her eyes at Lin Zhi again.

Yuan Huan saw that everyone didn't seem to be angry at his little deception, so he interjected with a smile: "The Dragon King is really unusual to you." ”

"Huanhuan, Long Ying is not ordinary to you. "Mo Caicai is not a fool, she raised her eyebrows at Yuan Huan, she wants to kick the ball to me, you can try...

Facing Mo Caicai, who did not enter the oil and salt, Yuan Huan could only secretly scold her for being too bad and too good. Careful thinking or something can't be shown in front of her at all, it's really not fun, it's not fun!
