He walked briskly, and after a glance, a wave of disgust came over him, it was a humanoid corpse, but it was covered with fine fish scales.

The corpse fluid stretched the skin of the corpse almost transparent, and also supported the dense scales, which at first glance looked like a blooming flower, but the second glance was so excited that the hairs on the body stood up.

Bai Sang noticed their strangeness, looked at it, and couldn't help but smile: "Yo, what a big 'squirrel fish'!"

"Vomit ......" Except for him and Bai Xiu, the others vomited when they heard this. It was at this time that Bai Xiu found a clue, and he pulled out the Demon Breaking Blade and followed this extremely strange person

The edge of the "fish" was scratched, and in an instant, the blackened skin of the corpse was finally revealed. Bai Sang suddenly said: "There is nothing wrong with this corpse, it's just that he was swallowed whole by a big fish, and after the corpse swelled, the fish outside were like a piece of clothing stretched out, so they looked like a whole." He tried to speculate: "Could it be that this is a coffin? The fish thought it was some kind of food in it, and after swallowing the corpse, it found that it couldn't get out, and finally it was trapped alive?"

"I'm afraid not. Bai Xiu carefully picked up an extremely slender thread in the fish scales,

"This is probably some kind of special burial custom, the owner of the blood-patterned coffin was put into the belly of the fish by his relatives, and then they buried the fish in the coffin. ”

"Could it be that he is a person from the Ten Thousand Souls Palace?" Wang Haiping finally came back to his senses, and was surprised and happy for a while,

"I heard that they worship the sea and believe that all living things evolved from fish, there must be this kind of totem worship, that is to say, ......" He changed his previous panic and announced with great interest: "We have found the Dragon King's Palace!" Zhou You was much calmer than him, and said worriedly: "If the Dragon King's Palace is behind the coffins, how can we drive the boat in?" Deng Qingqing proposed: "Or let's bypass a little, the sea is so wide, there are always empty corners." Fang Fei echoed repeatedly: "Yes, yes, it's not like these coffins are everywhere, they don't seem to be fixed, they will definitely be scattered when they are blown by the sea breeze and rolled by the waves!"

In the end, Liang Chen, who rarely spoke, said with a little trembling: "There is no gap...... There is no gap in this sea of coffins!" The others were silent, Bai Xiu was afraid that they would be too discouraged, and said: "It's not early, everyone is tired for a day, let's eat something and rest, we will keep vigil outside." He pointed to Bai Sang, although he can do this job alone, but for the sake of insurance, it is more reassuring for the two of them to stay outside after all.

His words undoubtedly gave them a reason to breathe a sigh of relief, and they crowded into the room to prepare dinner, but in fact, in the end, no one ate anything, even Bai Sang, who had just passed his addiction, looked at the dead pickled fish on the plate, and had no appetite.

Everyone tacitly did not mention the reason, and after packing up, they went back to rest, and soon the old fishing boat fell into a temporary silence.

The deck was damp, and the two people who were keeping vigil simply rested in the cockpit, looking at the gray mist outside the window, Bai Xiu's heart was also gloomy, Bai Sang was very casual, and talked to him with Erlang's legs crossed.

"It seems that we have indeed reached the land of the Dragon King's Palace. Bai Sang sighed,

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to bump into such a strange thing. Seeing him looking at himself with a smile, the previous doubts came up again, Bai Xiu didn't want to continue to go around the bend with him, and asked straight to the point: "You have spent so much effort to find this last ancient city, you must have already known about it, right?"

"Are you blaming me for not wanting to tell you the truth even though I know about the situation here? Unfortunately, I only know how to open the Soul Burning Circle in the city, and I don't know anything about the environment it is in, otherwise as I said before, I would have sent someone over. To be honest, Bai Xiu was still not sure if Bai Sang was telling the truth.

Whether it was this guy or the other people involved in that plan, it was very elusive for him, and for now, he could only be sure that even if these people did everything, the ultimate goal was to serve the entire cultivation world.

Of course, based on Bai Sang's words alone, he was actually not sure that the other party was lying, or whether he was using him, but this might be called an intuition, and he felt that Bai Sang did not seem to have malicious intent.

He was thinking wildly, a sound of gentle footsteps suddenly came from the deck, Bai Sang's reaction was even more than him, he looked at it, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the visitor with a smile: "It turned out to be classmate Zhou...... Looking for us?" Zhou You came in with a food bag, and then handed one by one: "Two big brothers, I see that you didn't eat anything at night, here are some snacks we bought in the town, fill your stomach." ”

"Yo, isn't this a coconut milk cake unique to Yunning Island......" Bai Sang took it unceremoniously, grabbed something and stuffed it into his mouth, and gave a thumbs up while munching on it.

"It's worth its name, it's delicious!" Zhou You smiled, still carrying another bag and handing it to Bai Xiu. Bai Xiu didn't have much appetite, but he was embarrassed to brush him off, so he took a piece, this coconut milk cake is very smooth to the touch, and the entrance is also very soft and glutinous, and it also has a little gum, which is very chewy.

But he always felt that the pastry was a little different from what he was usually eating, and there was a different aroma in the chewing, and it was this fragrance that made him frown—it smelled very faint, but it was very rich on the tip of the tongue, and it was so sweet that it made people sick.

So when You handed him the rest of the coconut milk cake, he apologized and refused, Bai Sang liked it very much, and immediately took out one hand to smile at all the things: "You actually eat such a delicious thing as medicine, it's not a good mouth!" Bai Xiu ignored him and said to Zhou You: "Thank you for bringing us food, but it's not too early, let's go and rest." ”

"It's too hard to stay all night, we don't know what will happen tomorrow, so we should save some energy anyway. Zhou You hesitated to speak,

"Brother Xin, why don't I stay with you for half the night, let Brother Bai rest, and then let him and Haiping come to replace us at that time. Bai Xiu was a little surprised in his heart, and he had to say that although the young man in front of him was not very old, his mind was very delicate, which was different from other companions.

That's right, even Deng Qingqing's girls are not as careful as Zhou You, otherwise someone else will send them supper.

It's a pity that he didn't plan to let Zhou You stay and keep vigil - yes, he proposed to let Bai Sang have another mind with him, but his previous concerns were not dispelled at all, and he had to closely monitor Bai San's every move.

This is not because Bai Sang's purpose is not pure, he is afraid that Bai Sang's purpose is too pure, and it will be unfavorable to these young people at any time, and he can't pay attention to each of them every minute, so he can only pay more attention to whether there will be any changes on Bai Sang's side.

He was thinking about how to persuade Zhou You to go back first, but before he could speak, Bai Sang had already spoken: "What you said is very reasonable, so let's do it?" The latter sentence he said was naturally to Bai Xiu.

Bai Xiu was a little helpless, he couldn't show his wariness of Bai Sang too obviously, if he and Bai Sang had a quarrel, it would be very detrimental to their actions in the future, thinking about it, he nodded: "Okay, you go and rest first." Bai Sang suddenly stretched his waist and walked to the cabin with a piece of coconut cake in his mouth, Bai Xiu withdrew his gaze from him, pointed to the small bench he left, and said to Zhou You: "You sit and rest for a while, I'll go outside and have a look." He stepped out of the cockpit and walked to the side of the ship to close his eyes and meditate, but the mysterious feeling still did not come as promised, which made him regret that it seemed that the state of spiritual isolation had not disappeared because of the change of position.

In fact, he had always had a feeling in his heart that the blood light he saw during the day might have a great connection with the Dragon King's Palace, and if he could figure out the ins and outs of them at that time, there should be a lot less twists and turns in the future.

But perhaps it was providence, and he was awakened by the sound of thunder as he tried to find out the secret.

He sighed, and then the sound of gentle footsteps followed, he opened his eyes and looked back at Zhou You: "Isn't it a little boring?" Zhou You smiled and didn't speak, he looked up at the gray sky, and then said with some concern: "We can't go back, we just don't know if we can pass through this sea of coffins after dawn...... Bai Xiu comforted: "Don't worry, things will always turn around." Zhou You nodded, folded his hands, stepped forward and bowed three times reverently to the blood-patterned wooden coffin, seeing Bai Xiu's inquiring gaze, he explained: "My hometown is also a village near the sea, otherwise I wouldn't be so interested in the Dragon King's Palace." My grandmother used to tell me a story about how our ancestors came from the ocean, and the sea is our true homeland, so when we end our lives in this world, we have to go back to the sea. I think that the people buried in this ocean must have the same faith, they remind me of my deceased relatives, and I really hope that the people I love and those who love me can be happy and happy in another world. Bai Xiu also had some expectations in his heart, maybe it was true, those who left them were just starting over in another world.

"It will be, everyone comes into this world with the expectations of their loved ones, and leaves it with the thoughts of their loved ones, even if we are scattered on the other side of the world, we are always implicated. ”

"Brother Xin also misses his family?" Bai Xiu didn't answer, he looked up at the chaotic night sky, but it was as if he saw countless twinkling stars, which tirelessly accompanied everyone who watched them, and also locked their thoughts firmly in their hearts, so that they could never forget.

He suddenly felt relieved, perhaps he had resented the impermanence of fate, but it had also given him the most important and precious things in his life.
