Chapter 151: The Underwater Labyrinth
The sea rose, and soon the sea and the gate were submerged, and when they saw that the rising tide had risen to the base of their thighs, the people were so frightened that they fled in all directions, and soon the king's guard of honor and the people fled without a trace.
Tanah Lot seemed to be an island, and the sea poured up, and soon it was about to sink into it.
There seemed to be a figure swaying under the huge waves, and there was a faint sound of music.
Ling Huqing knelt straight in front of the statue of the god of the sea, listening to the stormy waves outside, but there was no panic on her face.
"Qing'er, those sharks should be coming soon, I still hear a lot of people!" Aye's low voice came from his sleeve.
Ling Huqing's eyes kept looking at the statue of the sea god, with a human head and a fish body, and a little cold on his handsome face, which made Huqing always feel very familiar when he saw it, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while.
The sea water has risen to Ling Huqing's waist, the temple is dark, and he can't see his five fingers, so that Huqing only hears the sound of "whooshing" water, as if someone has entered the temple.
The night pearl hanging on the roof of Tanah Lot Temple lit up, and the whole temple was as bright as day, and a person wearing a top hat and a ceremonial dress said to Ling Huqing: "Princess Fubao, I am the official under the throne of the sea shark, come to greet the princess!"
Although Ling Huqing had a hijab on her head, she had already practiced the skill of perspective, she looked at this ceremonial official carefully, and saw that this ceremonial official looked quite gentle, and the part on the water was no different from a person, but the huge fish tail kept swinging under the water and was very conspicuous.
"The princess can take this water-repellent bead, which is specially made by the king for the princess", the ceremonial official offered a crystal pearl, so that the fox had to swallow it, full of fragrance.
Ling Huqing replied, "Thank you, my lord!" and saw two sharks with the same body and fish tail driving a car parked outside the temple gate.
Naturally, it was not a horse-drawn carriage for human beings, but was dragged by a huge sea turtle, and the cart was inlaid with transparent crystals and precious stones, and it looked very magnificent.
Linghu Qing sat down, and the ceremonial officer shouted, "Get on!" and the two mermaids sat on the back of the giant turtle and whipped the turtle's head with a whip, and the turtle rowed its four short legs and plunged under the surface of the sea.
The ceremonial officer led the way in front, and the turtle pulled the cart and swam fast. Ling Huqing dived to the bottom of the sea for the first time, and she was surprised to find that after taking the water droplets, she was no different from the land in the sea, and she did not feel difficult to breathe or choke on water. Countless sea creatures swam in front of her, and a group of colorful sea fish saw them coming, and instantly scattered and fled, so that Hu Qing was good at listening to the words of various animals, and she actually heard this group of fish whispering.
"She's coming, she's coming!"
"It's the princess of the world!"
"She's so pathetic....... ”
"You don't know how the king treats those beauties. ”
"Shhhhh
"Shhhhh
......
Is it the mermaid king who wants to marry the princess of Fubao? Is the sea god and the mermaid king the same person? It sounds like there is a kingdom ruled by the merman at the bottom of this Lantau Sea? Why does this merman marry a mortal princess?
Ling Huqing pondered these questions along the way, and soon, four huge palaces appeared in front of her, and many smaller palaces were scattered around them.
These palaces are more elaborate than the palaces of the mortal world, and if you compare them to the palaces of the Yue Yu Kingdom and the Xirin Kingdom, it is simply a heaven and an underground.
With crystal walls, multicolored scallops and countless precious stones, this palace stands on the dim seabed, looking magnificent, magnificent, and shiny, making people unable to open their eyes.
The car stopped in front of the palace, and only heard the official say in a loud voice: "The princess has arrived!"
The palace door was wide open, and the two columns of soldiers at the door knelt down on their knees, and said neatly: "Welcome to the princess!", Ling Hu Qingxin said that the mermaid king's etiquette was quite thorough, and he was about to get out of the car, when several women in red suddenly poured out of it, these women were slim, and the gauze skirts on their bodies were made of unknown materials, which looked light and close-fitting, outlining the figures of these women very moving.
The two women led by Ying Ying bowed down and said, "The princess is above, Qingwu and Bijin are ordered by the king to greet the princess!"
Qingwu and Bijin gently picked Ling Huqing out of the car from left to right, and whispered in her ear: "Please princess come with us, the king has been waiting for a long time!", several other women followed behind them, and discussed in a very low voice: "This princess doesn't know how beautiful she is, and the king is so concerned." ”
"No matter how beautiful she is, she is just a mortal woman, but the king doesn't even like the nine princesses of the Dragon King of the North Sea, I really don't understand. ”
"Don't say it, the king will listen to it, watch your tongues!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an instant silence behind them, and the group of women stopped talking and walked with their heads buried in them.
Ling Hu Qing suddenly wondered in his heart, what kind of character is this shark king, making these people so afraid?
The night pearls produced by several 10,000-year-old pearls and mussels in this crystal palace hang high on the roof, and the scene in the palace is in full view. Entering the eye is a hall, the hall is lit with lights, and the red and bright word "Xi" can be seen everywhere makes the palace look festive.
There are several tables on both sides, and the back of the tables is full of people, and it must be a little inappropriate to say that it is "people", because the "people" here are simply different in appearance, and most of them are normal, and you can see that they are sharks at a glance. Some don't dare to compliment, but they are just barely a "person" in terms of form.
For example, at the table next to him, there was a man who had been hunching his neck, his head was bare, his eyes were purring, his back was hunched, he was wearing a wide and wide dress, and his legs were short, and he was sitting on a chair, looking very strange.
There is also the one sitting on the top, with two horns on the head, this horn is black and curved, scarred, I don't know what kind of horn it is, anyway, I feel ugly when I look at it, where is Aye's dragon horn cute, Aye's dragon horn feels warm and soft, and the color is also good-looking.......
Ahem...... , What are you thinking, how did you think of your senior brother, Ling Hu Qing couldn't help but blush, fortunately there was a hijab to cover it, she couldn't help but shrink her hand into her sleeve and gently pinched the black dragon.
Aye said, "Qing'er, I'm here!", hearing this familiar voice, Hu Qing's heart was a little relieved.
Qingwu and Bijin stopped in front of her, knelt in front of the hall and said loudly: "Report to the king, the princess is already in front of the hall, please show the king!"
Ling Huqing couldn't help but look up at the shark king sitting in the middle of the main hall through the hijab, this shark king was wearing a big red wedding dress, and even a small red flower was obliquely inserted on the jade crown that tied his hair. But instead of a hint of joy on the man's face, he was cold, and his eyes were straight at her.
