Chapter 21: The Temple of the Sea
Su Qing thought about it, but still sighed, determined to tell her mother-in-law the truth, if she still kept it a secret, I am afraid it would really hurt her mother-in-law's heart. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
And, if she had told her mother-in-law, she might have been able to get her mother-in-law's help—not to trouble her mother-in-law to find a needle in a haystack to find the guide's book, but to have a glimmer of hope—after all, her mother-in-law had lived on this island for so many years, what if she really knew something that would allow her to find the place where the whirlpool had happened before?
The main and hardest part of finding the Book of Guides is finding where the Book of Guides fell - the place where the whirlpool took place, and once that problem is solved, everything else is fine.
So, Su Qing still reluctantly told her about what happened at sea before, including that she had a companion named Xia Aya, including Xia Aya being swallowed by the whirlpool, including that she barely escaped from the whirlpool after taking whitebait meat, and finally drifted here...... All of this was told to Granny Suti.
There was only one thing she didn't say explicitly - and that was the Book of Guides, for it was an absolute secret between the two of them, and if it wasn't for a special circumstance, she wouldn't have told the third person anyway, not even Granny Suti.
After all, they are actually time-travelers, and from her conversation with Granny Suti, she has long known that Granny Suti is the aboriginal of this world, and she doesn't know what kind of attitude the aborigines will have towards the Book of Travelers and Guides, so she can only hide it for the time being...... Although this is a bit sorry for Grandma Suti, this is the most basic protection for yourself.
Only after revealing some momentum little by little, let's see how Granny Suti reacts......
"I see, no wonder your injuries are so serious, no wonder you are in such a hurry to save your sister...... I can understand your feelings...... But you have to remember that your body is the most important thing at all times, and only when your body is back to its full state can you save your companions, otherwise you just want to die in vain......"
The mother-in-law's words suddenly made Su Qing a little confused, and she was just about to ask her mother-in-law if she knew the way to find the place where the whirlpool occurred.
What the? Save her sisters? Wait, didn't she say Aya was swallowed by the whirlpool? Why is there still such a thing as saving Aya from it? Could it be that her expression is incorrect? She probably meant to retrieve what Aya had dropped? And she didn't explicitly say that they have the ability to resurrect, so whatever Granny Suti says, it should be understood that she really wants to retrieve Aya's relics......
Looking at Su Qing's puzzled eyes, Su Ti's mother-in-law couldn't help but be a little strange: "What's wrong Xiaoqing, mother-in-law, didn't I make it clear?" When people are old, it's a little difficult to speak, and don't be surprised if you don't make it clear......"
"No, no, no," Su Qing quickly shook her head and said the question in her heart: "Mother-in-law, you say...... What does it mean to be able to bring my companions back? ”
"Huh?" The mother-in-law was stunned, "Why Xiaoqing, don't you mean that?" Or are you not confident in your own strength? It's okay, I'll do my best to help when the time comes, hum Xiaoqing, don't look at me so old, my old bones, but I still have a few brushes. ”
Su Qing was even more puzzled, and the corners of her mouth were about to pull up her eyes.
"It's not...... I was wondering, wasn't my friend swallowed up by the whirlpool? How can there be any hope of survival? And Aya doesn't know how to swim, I just want to retrieve her relics......"
Mother-in-law Su Ti was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then frowned at her brows, which were already full of wrinkles, and now she was even more wrinkled, and it took a while to understand what Su Qing meant, and she couldn't help but shake her head and laugh.
"Hahaha...... It seems that Xiaoqing, you still don't know enough about this ocean...... No wonder you had such a puzzled look in your eyes just now. ”
"I really don't know enough about this sea......" Su Qing smiled bitterly, "Because I came here by accident, as soon as I entered the boundless ocean, I drifted in this ocean with her for almost five days, I thought it would be calm until we found the exit of this world, but I didn't expect that something like that happened halfway......"
"I'm so lucky compared to her, not only escaped from the clutches of the whirlpool, but also met your mother-in-law's help......"
"Okay, okay......" The mother-in-law stepped forward and patted Su Qing's back and comforted, "Don't be sad...... Mother-in-law, I can tell you very clearly that your friend is not dead at all, at most he is a little injured and suffering, and you have a chance to save him......"
"What?" Su Qing's eyes widened suddenly.
"This ...... Is this true? Mother-in-law, you didn't lie to me because you wanted to comfort me, did you? ”
Su Qing said with some excitement, if Aya really didn't die, she still had a chance to rescue her, it would be great......
"But mother-in-law, you said that you rescued her, what does this mean...... Is she still trapped in the whirlpool and suffering? But a second before I fell into a coma, I saw that the whirlpool seemed to be gradually starting to disappear, and even fish came out of the center of the whirlpool......"
"Wait!"
The mother-in-law suddenly let out a hoarse roar, asking Su Qing to stop her voice.
"The reason why I said that your friend could still be rescued is because of the so-called 'fish' you mentioned."
"Is it because of this fish?" Su Qing became more and more puzzled, what does this have to do with fish? Could it be that the fish ate Aya? Haven't digested it yet, so can you get her out?
That's too ...... It's incredible.
"Listen to me slowly......"
The mother-in-law took out a small bottle from her pocket, filled with a pink liquid, and took a sip.
That bottle looks a little similar to the "Life Recovery Potion", but I don't think it should be a potion, after all, even if my mother-in-law is a witch, she can't use this potion as an ordinary tea if she can refine medicine, maybe it's just ordinary fresh water with a slightly different color.
So under the unhurried explanation of Granny Suti, Su Qing finally understood why they encountered such a terrifying whirlpool, as if they were going to devour both of them......
In fact, all of this is caused by the two of them, and to put it bluntly, they can't live because of their own sins.
It's not completely peaceful, and it's not without owners - it's just that it's not owned by humans, but by mutated sea tribes that live beneath the ocean floor, mutated from fish and transformed into a kind of guy with a huge head, one eye, and an elongated tail - those guys have a common name in the game, called guardians.
And the undersea palace where the guardians live also has a name, called the Temple of the Sea.
