At this time, Huang Xiaolong's ghost puppet had already completed its evolution after devouring all the powerful ghosts in this ghost mansion, including the ghost king!

This thing is about two feet high, directly poking a big hole in the roof of this ancient house, the whole body is as black as iron, glowing with a cold metallic luster, a pair of bat-like huge wings grow behind it, a pair of eyes exude a red light, the breath is breathtaking, like a demon god!

This ghost puppet has completely evolved into a killing machine, and even if it is a ghost king, it will be broken into pieces in an instant.

Qingqing and Xiaohong, the two monsters, were a little apprehensive when facing the ghost puppet.

That Cao Dabiao was completely confused, looking at Huang Xiaolong in a daze, unable to make a sound, but said in his heart-'This boyfriend of Miss, what is his identity? Very... There are a lot of doorways~~ I can't afford to provoke it, I can't afford to provoke it... I can't imagine that there are such capable people in the world...'

"Hehe, my ghost puppet is more than several times more powerful than the Xia Dao Chief's plan to be refined. In Bermuda's Devil's Triangle, the guy who arranged the ghost formation, I don't know if he can resist my ghost puppet~~ Hahahaha..."Huang Xiaolong smiled proudly, "Okay, let's walk around and see what kind of tragic grievances there are." ”

As he spoke, Huang Xiaolong put the ghost puppet into the Yin Soul Tube.

At that moment, Huang Xiaolong took Shirley Bai and the others through the hall and carefully inspected the ancient mansion.

All the powerful ghosts had disappeared, and Huang Xiaolong burned a few talismans to ward off evil spirits, so that the ghost qi that had been haunting this ancient mansion for a long time was all wiped out.

On a spiritual level, the ancient mansion no longer has that creepy feeling.

"Huh~~ There's also a painting here. Qingqing and Xiaohong were the most active, walking in front, and suddenly stopped and shouted.

I saw that on the wall of a corridor, there was a colorful painting.

There is still only the upper half of this painting, but the lower half has long since decayed.

Huang Xiaolong walked up to take a look, only to see that the content of this painting was still the middle-aged man in a Chinese official uniform, standing side by side with the woman full of exotic style.

However, judging from this painting, the exotic beauty is actually about two heads taller than this middle-aged man!

"Isn't it?" Shirley said in amazement, "why are women so much taller than men?"

Cao Dabiao said with a smile. "Miss, this painting is incomplete, both lower bodies have been lost, perhaps, while the painting is being painted, the man is sitting, but this beautiful woman is standing, so it seems that the woman is much taller than the man. ”

Huang Xiaolong shook his head and smiled. "The first painting we found, where the man and the woman were tall, was also missing the lower half, but I could deduce from the posture of the man and the woman that the woman was sitting and the man was standing, so it looked like they were of the same height. And in this painting, the posture of the two people is standing up, which makes people see at a glance that the woman is much taller than the man. That's their real height. ”

Huang Xiaolong stared at the colorful paintings on the wall and analyzed. "This man is about 170 in terms of body proportions, and if the woman is two heads taller than the man, then the woman is close to 2 meters tall... This..."

Huang Xiaolong only thought it was incredible.

In ancient times, the height of human beings was generally inferior to that of modern times, and it was difficult for a woman, even if she was not of Chinese race, but close to European and American race, to reach a height of 2 meters at that time, right?

Not to mention that in that era, even in modern times, human genes have evolved, in Europe, America and Western countries, women with a height of 2 meters are rare.

At this moment, a flash of aura flashed in Huang Xiaolong's mind. "Could this woman in the painting be the owner of the obsession wrapped around the black knife?"

Huang Xiaolong had a gut feeling - yes!

So... She kept saying that she had suffered a tragedy that exterminated humanity, could it be that it was the man in the painting who persecuted her?

It seems that the two are like a husband and wife, so could it be - killing a wife?

"Master, don't dwell on this, I see that these portraits have been artistically processed, and even fictional. "Shirley White. "Perhaps, the artist is deliberately beautifying this woman. ”

After a few steps, another scroll of paintings appeared on the wall.

This scroll is extremely well preserved and not missing.

Moreover, it is a large-scale painting, several meters in length, width and height, and the artist's skill is very exquisite, depicting a grand and magnificent scene!

The sea is in the background!

On the sea, dozens of wooden sailing ships are moored! This is a fleet! A large fleet!

One of the largest wooden galleons is the flagship of the entire fleet, the capital ship!

It is a building ship, with a total of four floors, nine masts and twelve sails, majestic!

"Ah~~!" Cao Dabiao exclaimed, "This... That's what we... What we saw... Those ghost ships..."

Yes, Huang Xiaolong and Shirley Bai also saw that they had seen the real thing on these ships, there was a mighty tiger head relief on the front of the bow, a solemn dragon relief or painted on the front of the two sides, a phoenix painted on the rear, and a Dapeng bird with wings spread over the stern plate......

Isn't it those ghost ships that suddenly appeared in the devil's fog when sailing in the Devil's Triangle of Bermuda?

On the shore, there is also a painting of the middle-aged man, hanging a long sword at his waist, holding the hilt of the sword, with a heroic attitude, indescribable heroic posture, this painting is very expressive, from the man's eyes, can see an extremely huge ambition, a kind of eye-eyed posture!

Dozens of wooden sailing boats are full of flags, some of which have a traditional character "Zheng" written on them.

"Zheng?" Huang Xiaolong's eyes suddenly lit up.

Cao Dabiao screamed. "I know! I know! The man in the official uniform is pictured, it turns out to be Zheng He!

"The Ming Dynasty wants to be rich and strong, and it can't ignore the ocean. Wealth comes from the sea, and danger comes from the sea? Yes, Zheng He is indeed. Huang Xiaolong also nodded. "Well, this painting describes ...... The Three Treasure Eunuchs go to the West!"

"In other words, this island, the mansion where we are now, is... It is... Is it Zheng He's mansion?" Shirley Bai was shocked. "But it's most likely the Bermuda Sea..."

"Oh, it turned out to be the story of the Three Treasures Eunuch going to the West. Qingqing shook her head like an old driver. "Back then, my mother-in-law also told me the story of the Three Treasures Eunuch going to the West, well, the story is very interesting. ”

Qingqing, a monster, also began to show off his knowledge, showing that although he was a monster, he was still very familiar with the history of mankind.

"Keep looking and see if there are any other paintings. These ancient scrolls seem to record a story. "Huang Xiaolong had an intuition in his heart—'I'm afraid this story is true!Moreover, it's in history, it's not known!'

The interest of the big guys has also come up, and while walking, they are looking for ancient paintings in the house.

Huang Xiaolong also walked as he recalled, "By the way, when I was in the underworld before, I had never seen the ghost of the Three Treasures Eunuch Zheng He... But I didn't care about it at the time, after all, this is not a big deal...'

After walking for a while, I found a few more paintings, but unfortunately, these paintings were so badly damaged that there were even a few scraps left, and it was completely impossible to discern the contents of the paintings.

Shirley Bai and Qingqing couldn't help beating their chests and screaming in pity.

But fortunately, when a study was found, there was a large picture scroll hanging on the wall of the study.

The background color of this painting is a patch of blue.

And it's not your average blue, it's a deep blue like the bottom of the sea.

Bubbles, corals, schools of fish and shrimp are swimming.

"Ah, I see, this painting is about the underwater world. Shirley Bai said with great certainty.

After a pause, Shirley Bai shook his head again. "That's not right, could it be that ancient painters were able to dive into the bottom of the sea to paint?"

On top of this picture of the seabed, there is a building. The building is very eccentric, not a mansion, not a high-rise building, but a triangular building.

The triangle is made up of huge stones, and on the surface of these boulders, a dense collection of ancient and mysterious symbols are outlined, as well as tadpole-like twisted words.

Although Huang Xiaolong was well-informed, he also did not know these symbols and words.

In front of this building, there is a man and a woman.

The man is the middle-aged man who appeared in the previous paintings, that is, "Zheng He". And the woman is naturally the peerless beauty full of exotic customs.

The two wore the clothes worn by ancient Chinese newcomers when they got married.

Zheng He wore a bright red champion dress embroidered with a unicorn, and the beautiful woman wore a phoenix crown.

This painting, without any defects, allows people to get a glimpse of the whole leopard.

In the painting, both of them are standing up straight, and the woman is indeed two heads taller than Zheng He.

But!

"This painting! this painting is fake! fake it!" Suddenly, Shirley Bai screamed. She stretched out her trembling fingers and pointed to the legs of the exotic woman in the painting.

But to be precise, she has no legs.

Of course, it's not that she's disabled, but that the part where she was supposed to have legs grew a tail!

Yes, a fish tail! a fish tail covered in scales!

This fish tail is much longer than a normal person's legs.

So much so that this woman's height is two heads taller than Zheng He!

"Impossible... This is by no means true, the bottom of the sea... Person... Person... Merman... This is not true! No, this beautiful woman, she... She... She's not human... It's impossible! She's so beautiful...... "Cao Dabiao is simply lost in his soul... His throat was dry, and his voice was very hoarse.

"Oh, interesting... It's really interesting..."Huang Xiaolong was only slightly stunned for a few seconds, and his mood was already calm.

Merman?

Sort of a fart!

Huang Xiaolong had even seen any demons and monsters! Yellow skins, hedgehogs, snakes, foxes, echoing insects...... Just a mermaid, what a way!

Qingqing and Xiaohong are even more calm, one of them is a python, the other is a fox, in the world of monsters, it is not surprising that a woman has a human upper body and a fish tail on the lower body.

"Oh, don't be weird, okay? "I don't think it's fully transformed. So, there's also a fish tail. If the Tao is enough, the tail of a fish can also transform into human legs. This fish demon is pretty, but it's very weak. ”

"You know. Huang Xiaolong glared at Xiao Hong, "'There are sharks outside the South China Sea, who live in water like fish, and do not waste their achievements. Sharks are beautiful creatures that live in the sea, half human and half fish, they are basically all females, they are good at singing, and their singing voices are so beautiful that they can capture people's souls, and with their singing they can bewitch the sailors of passing ships, so that they will run aground and die, which is a fatal temptation. And it is said that their oil has a very low ignition point, and a single drop can be burned for several days. Legend has it that in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, there is an ever-bright lantern made of shark oil. ”

In Huang Xiaolong's opinion, the merman is not a pure fish demon, of course, it is also a kind of monster.

"Is this the 'mermaid' in European and American myths and legends?" Shirley said in a trembling voice, drawing a cross on his chest. "God, the legend of the mermaid is true! It turned out to be true..."

"Well, this picture is one of the comic strips. The content of the painting is that the eunuch of the Three Treasures and a merman, that is, a mermaid, worship the church and get married. It's a pity that there are a few missing pieces in this comic book, and we can't know how Zheng He met the mermaid and fell in love..."Huang Xiaolong said with a serious face.

"Master, do you think the contents of the painting are true?" Shirley Bai still looked incredulous.

"Well, I think it's true. Gut feeling. Huang Xiaolong nodded solemnly. "Wonderful, I can't wait to know how it ends. ”

"Childe, this is really a romantic love story! It's like the love story of our snake demon clan, Bai Suzhen Niangniang and Xu Xian, is so poignant and fascinating..."

Shirley Bai and Cao Dabiao looked at Qingqing with a shocked expression.

Huang Xiaolong smiled mysteriously. "I think that the story of Zheng He and the merman must not be a romantic love story, but a tragedy, if you don't believe it, you can bet with me. ”

After a pause, Huang Xiaolong pointed to Zheng He in the scroll. "You pay attention, this is a good day to get married, but Zheng He's eyes have a kind of yin owl... I have to say that the artist's skills are so exquisite that he captures Zheng He's expression. But it is also possible that on the day of marriage, Zheng He's expression was so gloomy and perverted..."
