Bai Ze led the King of Qi and them to a cave. He said that although they had no holy things, they had holy places. He pointed to the cave and said it was their holy place. Of course, this is also their forbidden place.

It is called a holy place because every baby is born and is baptized in a spring in a cave for two days. If the baby does not die after two days, it means that the baby has been approved by the gods and that he can survive. If the baby dies, it means that the gods feel that the child is not fit to exist in the world, and the gods will take him away. He couldn't survive.

Li Siyu heard of such a thing for the first time. Throwing the newborn baby into the fountain and ignoring it for two days is clearly murder. Children will starve to death if they don't drown.

But that's the merfolk custom.

Li Siyu looked at Bai Ze carefully, "What you said is true?" ”

Bai Ze was a little displeased, "How come in your eyes, am I a person who often tells lies?" ”

Li Siyu thought about it, although he was arrogant and unlikable, he didn't seem to be panicking. She said, "So you were thrown into the spring when you were born?" ”

Bai Ze said: "Of course, I am a child approved by the gods." ”

It is said that when the tribesmen went to see Bai Ze, he was sinking under the water, motionless. The people thought he was dead, and when they scooped him up, they found out that he was asleep under the water.

He can go a long time without breathing. In his words, even if he stays underwater for two days and doesn't come out, he'll be fine.

Li Siyu thought it was amazing, if someone could hold their breath underwater for ten minutes in modern times, and they would be safe, she wouldn't believe it, let alone two days. However, this is ancient times, an alternate time and space, where she will believe in anything unthinkable.

Li Siyu felt that the body structure of the mermaid clan must be a little different from them, so they could stay in the water for a long time.

The reason why it is said to be a forbidden place is because its interior is mysterious. Except for the spring near the entrance to the cave. There is still a lot of space inside the cave. The merfolk once tried to explore the space inside, but something terrible happened. for he who goes in and into it never comes out.

Later, they made it a forbidden place, and only allowed the people to use the outside springs, and they were not allowed to enter the inside.

Li Siyu said: "You brought us here to tell us the stone we are looking for." Is it in your holy places, or in your forbidden places? ”

Bai Ze said: "I don't know what kind of stone you are looking for, since it is not an ordinary stone, it must be in our forbidden land." Do you dare to go in with me? ”

King Qi said: "This is your forbidden land, since it has been set as a forbidden land. This shows that it is dangerous inside. Moreover, he who went in never came out. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to go in like this! ”

Bai Ze said: "I just thought that you were with me, and I wanted to be friends with you, but I didn't expect you to be such a timid person." I was so disappointed. ”

Li Siyu knew that King Qi was not cowardly, but cautious. Naturally, one should be cautious about going to unknown places full of dangers.

Li Siyu said: "The real disappointment should be you!" You are also the son of a tribal leader, why are you so reckless! ”

Bai Ze was obviously a little unconvinced and asked, "Where did I be reckless?" ”

Li Siyu said: "You know that your face may be full of danger, and you want to go in without making some preparations?" What are you not reckless? Don't think you're amazing, I think your people are amazing, and it's not like you can't get out after you go in! ”

Bai Ze said: "Then what do you say you want to prepare?" ”

As soon as Li Siyu saw Bai Ze's appearance, he knew that he must have wanted to explore the forbidden land a long time ago. It's just that there hasn't been a suitable opportunity. Now he can enter the forbidden land under the pretext of helping them find medicine. He found himself the right excuse.

The interior of the cave can be dark. So they have to prepare torches, which can also be used to check if there is enough oxygen in them. In addition, food and fresh water must also be prepared. There are also some must-have tools in the field.

Li Siyu felt that it was inappropriate to follow Bai Ze to the forbidden land like this, and he had to get the consent of Bai Ze's father. After all, this is a forbidden place for people, so I have to say it.

Bai Ze's father naturally disagreed with them going. After Li Siyu's repeated persuasion, the white leader agreed to Li Siyu and King Qi to enter. But his son Bai Ze could not go. He was also worried about his son.

However, Bai Ze's determination to enter the cave was particularly strong. He said that Li Siyu had cured his mother's illness and that he had to help in return.

Li Siyu didn't expect Bai Ze to be so righteous, she said: "You have already helped us a lot by suing us for the forbidden land." We have received your heart, and we can go by ourselves. ”

Bai Ze glanced at Li Siyu. "Are you really going to take it seriously, do you think I went to the forbidden land for you? I'm here to find my grandfather. ”

It turned out that Bai Ze's grandfather had entered the forbidden land for an expedition fifteen years ago, and he never came out again. Bai Ze has always kept this matter in mind, and he has always wanted to go to the forbidden land to find his grandfather's whereabouts. But his father wouldn't allow it.

Li Siyu knew that she would be wrong again, this Bai Ze was not as good as she thought.

After Bai Ze gave the real reason, the white leader was silent. If he hadn't been able to abandon the responsibilities and burdens of being a tribal leader, he would have gone to the forbidden land fifteen years ago to find his father.

Bai Ze continued, "I've been waiting for a suitable opportunity for so many years, and when I learned that they were looking for a special stone, I knew that the opportunity I had been waiting for had come. They were swept up in waterspouts. I believe this is providence. Father, so many of our clansmen have disappeared into the forbidden land, and this matter should be closed. ”

The white leader clenched his fists, struggling in his heart for a long time, and he said, "This matter needs to be resolved, but do you have the ability?" ”

Bai Ze said: "I believe in the will of heaven, since the gods arranged for them to come here and arranged for me to meet them, this is to let us go and break this matter." ”

Is it really providential? Li Siyu also fell into thought. Perhaps, otherwise, it was so coincidental that a waterspout swept them to Mermaid Island. Perhaps this is the providence of the underworld.

The white leader nodded helplessly, "Since you said that this is the will of heaven, then I will believe in the will of heaven for once." But you must promise me that no matter what, you will come out safely. ”

Bai Ze nodded. But he didn't have a bottom in his heart.

Chief Bai looked at King Qi and Li Siyu, "Young Master Sima, Miss Xiaoyu, my Bai Ze will ask you to take care of it." ”

King Qi and Li Siyu glanced at each other, "We will." (To be continued.) )xh:.74.240.212
