Chapter 394: The World of Legends
Getting off the boat and stepping on the soft sand felt very unreal. The sea breeze blew, and the beautiful snake asked in a sneering voice: "Where does the wind come from?" ”
Everyone stared wide-eyed, and finally all looked at Qin Xuebing. Qin Xuebing could only smile bitterly and said, "How do I know, anyway, don't treat this place as a rebellious world, just treat it as a normal island." ”
"Normal island, is it normal?" The beautiful snake stretched out her hand and pointed to the seashore, where a crab was crawling onto the beach. It's just that this crab is a bit huge, with a width of one meter and a foot span of three meters.
"Is this a crab?" Qin Xuebing was a little dizzy, the Australian king crab was just a minor kid compared to the guy.
"Brother, I want to eat crab meat." Ouyang Xiaomei squinted her eyes, Australian king crab is extremely delicious, and the taste of this big guy will not be bad in comparison.
"You can get it back for drink." Qin Xuebing thought it was true, there was a large vat of daughter red on the cruise ship, and with this huge crab, it should taste very good.
"You brothers and sisters ......" The beautiful snake shook her head with a wry smile, what kind of environment is this, she only cares about eating, and her nerves are thick enough.
"Look, it's coming to the door on its own." Qin Xuebing laughed, and the giant crab actually walked towards this side, and the speed was extremely fast, as if it was about to attack the crowd.
"If you walk sideways, why don't you go straight?" Qin Xiaoxiao seemed to have found that there were serious deficiencies in this crab.
"Have you ever seen a crab walking straight?" The beautiful snake was a little speechless, this family was getting more and more well-behaved, and she wondered if it was caused by a sudden change in the environment.
"Walking sideways, at most it's called a bigger crab. Go straight, that's the real monster. "Qin Xiaoxiao naturally thinks so, monsters, they have to be blamed, and they have to be blamed.
The giant crab rushed towards it, and it had the posture to attack. Humans can't be its food, and yet they attack. It can be seen that it is aggressive and very manic.
Everyone didn't move, but Xiaolong was positive. Across the front of the line, a tail twitched over. Poor crab, before it touched anyone, flew out upside down. Slammed on the sand. However, the little dragon left seven or eight points of strength in the end, and this time it only whipped it away, not to death.
The crab walks sideways, but it is not stunned, and when it is attacked, it immediately realizes the danger and turns around to run away. But how could Ouyang Xiaomei allow the food in her mouth to slip away, pinched the magic trick in her hand, and shouted: "Fall down!" ”
The giant crab fell down in response, and Ouyang Xiaomei walked over quickly and dragged it back, muttering, "Not bad." There are sixty or seventy pounds in the shell, and there should be a lot of meat in it. ”
Qin Xuebing helped lift the crab up and threw it onto the boat: "Xiaolong, Jiaolong, get the yacht into the water." We went back. ”
They just came over to see the situation this time, and the real treasure hunt still needs more people, at least the special operations team must bring it. The main thing is that I am worried about encountering monsters like ant monsters, and it is a crowd tactic when it comes up, and there is no strong vitality guarantee, and the chance of survival is very small.
Wait for the dragon and the dragon to pull the yacht into the water. The beautiful snake asked again, "How do you go back?" "This is a very magical world, although there is also a sea, and it seems to be boundless, but she will never think that the whole sea is real, otherwise this is not the so-called rebel world, but another world.
"Don't worry, as long as you grasp the law of change in the magnetic field, it will not be difficult to get out." Qin Xuebing walked towards the sea, and a white cloud appeared in front of him, which turned out to be a conch.
Like the crab, this conch is so large that it can almost top a grinding disc. Qin Xuebing picked up the conch and estimated that it should weigh forty or fifty catties: "This place is quite magical, the same creature, but it is always several times larger than the outside." ”
"Sister Xiaoxiao, let's get a few more and go back." Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, the snail meat was plump and delicate, and the taste was delicious, known as the "pearl of the plate".
There are a lot of creatures on the seaside, and the two girls were busy for a while, not only got back seven or eight conchs, but also got two big crabs, and then they were satisfied and got on the boat.
Some distance from the coast and looking back, you can see that the pirate is actually not big, it is similar to a circle, about five kilometers in diameter, much smaller than the mysterious island.
The trees on the island are very lush, and the towering trees are forested, which is even more prosperous than the mysterious island. There is a super giant tree in the center of the island, seeing this tree, Qin Xuebing unconsciously remembered a movie "Avatar", this tree is like the tree that Avatar inhabits in the film.
"Deviate 30 degrees to the left, go forward 500 meters, and turn right another 100 meters." Qin Xuebing stood on the deck, constantly giving instructions to guide the yacht forward. After a few minutes, the feeling of darkness reappeared, and when the light reappeared, the island had disappeared and returned to its normal world.
"Senior Brother Qin, you can figure it out, what's going on inside?" One yacht after another approached, and the people in Qimen came over one after another, gossiping and asking questions.
In the end, Qin Xuebing was annoyed and said loudly: "Everyone, we have filmed the situation inside, let's go back to the cruise ship to watch." ”
It was already getting dark, but last night the party was so strong that many people couldn't get up, and only a few people walked out to the deck or the gym to stretch their muscles. But they were all very strange, it was already dawn, why didn't they sail yet?
Especially when the people on deck found that the yacht was gone, what did these people do? You won't leave anyone on the boat behind.
Of course, this is purely idle and boring thoughts. The fleet soon came into their sight, and a large group of people boarded the cruise ship.
Qin Xuebing asked Ouyang Zhanjun to bring everyone to the conference room, while he went to the radio room and used the radio to shout loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I know that it may disturb everyone's sweet dreams, but I still ask everyone to wake up, because I have something very important to say, and I have to listen to your opinions on this matter." ”
"What the hell is Qin Xuebing, this slut, doesn't let people sleep well early in the morning!" Bai Xuefei didn't even open his eyes, and he was still holding a woman in his arms, Vilia.
After all these days of hard work, he finally succeeded, and spent his days haunting Vilia's room, enchanting this elderly beautiful woman. It filled him with a sense of accomplishment!
Of course, it was just a premeditated financial deal for him. The most important thing is to be able to profit from this financial transaction.
"Listen, maybe something new is happening." Vilia pricked up her ears, she believed that Qin Xuebing shouted early in the morning, there must be something not simple.
"The latest thing for me is you." Bai Xuefei's hand wandered dishonestly over Vilia, exploring every mysterious land.
"Spare me, my dear. I don't have any strength at all. Viglia soon ran out of breath and became distracted, but still kept her ears pricked up.
"Doesn't this kid know that the old man sleeps very lightly?" Old Man Ouyang sat up. But he still pricked up his ears, believing that his grandson would not be untargeted.
"This kid has made such a big fuss, I guess he has really found a new treasure." There is no doubt that there is a fake. He understands Qin Xuebing's temperament, if he doesn't make money, this kid can't spend so much effort.
"This kid is so good at tossing!" Qiu Yun sat up and sighed, needless to say, this so-called important thing must be related to danger. As a mother, this is the last thing he wants to see.
But she was helpless, her son, daughter-in-law, and daughter were all wearing the same pants now, and she screamed with excitement when she heard the treasure hunt, and she couldn't stop it.
"What I'm going to say has to do with treasures."
Qin Xuebing's voice resounded in every corner of the cruise ship: "Before leaving." I got another treasure map and today I have found the treasure location. ”
There was an uproar on the boat, those who had already gotten up pricked up their ears, and those who had not woken up quickly sat up straight, and even those who were intimate also hurriedly sat up straight. Wait for the following.
"Treasure, I'm afraid it's not a simple treasure, right?" Vilia struggled to sit up, and once Qin Xuebing got involved with the treasure, he was surprised by powerful monsters, thrilling battles, and romantic magical journeys.
These are all things she yearns for. I can't wait to be part of the treasure hunt. And this time, it seems that there is real hope.
"This time we are looking for the treasure of the merman. Friends in the West may be unfamiliar with this term, but you will never be familiar with its other name, mermaid. That's right, we're looking for a mermaid's treasure. ”
Qin Xuebing's voice is full of seductiveness, which makes everyone fascinated, especially Western tourists, who have grown up listening to the stories of mermaids, and then spread the stories of mermaids to their children.
Different from the myths and legends of the East, in the Western story, the mermaid is bounded by the waist, the upper body is a beautiful woman, and the lower body is a beautiful fish tail covered with scales, and the whole body is both seductive and easy to escape quickly. They have no soul and are as merciless as the sea; Voices, like their appearances, are often deceptive; A combination of seduction, vanity, beauty, cruelty, and desperate love.
Of course, there is also something common in the stories of the East and the West, that is, the mermaid foreshadows the ominous.
Legend has it that mermaids are cursed by those who go to sea. Their upper body is breathtakingly beautiful, but the lower half is covered with scales, cold fishtails (sometimes one, sometimes split), and their seductive singing voices, so countless sailors have been led to the point of no return. Miss Sairen, for example, is a long-lived woman who still faces death, and merfolk are said to have no soul.
Many folklore tales mention the story of a mermaid marrying a human. In most cases, men stole the mermaid's hat or belt, or comb and mirror. When this is properly hidden, the merfolk will live with him, and if she finds her lost property, she will return to the sea.
In general, merfolk are dangerous to humans. The gifts they give can bring misfortune, such as causing disasters such as floods. Seeing a mermaid during a trip is a bad omen for a shipwreck. They sometimes longed to see mortals drowned, to cite a famous example: Lolaili of the Rhine. Sometimes they lured young people to live underwater with them, and stories like this were carved on the pews of churches in Cornwall and England.
The Melanesians of the Southwest Pacific Islands have similar myths and legends, their mermaid named "Adara", with a humanoid upper body and a fish-like lower body, lives in the sun, comes to Earth through rainbows, and usually hides in tornadoes at sea. Unlike other mermaids, Adara is a dangerous creature in the eyes of Melanesians, who will attack humans with flying fish, leaving them unconscious or even dead.
"Mermaid, ma'am, did I hear me right?" Boehner sat on the boat, and the man in his sixties trembled with excitement.
"Yes. That's right, but is it possible? Helena didn't doubt her ears, she just doubted the truth of the matter. Mermaids, that's a legendary species.
"Probably, how impossible, and it's not like there haven't been mermaid corpses found in the world." Bernard said.
Pliny the Elder, a natural scientist who wrote about the "mermaid" creature, wrote in his monumental book Natural History: "As for the mermaids. Also called Niereid, it's not unbelievable...... They are real, but they are rough. There were scales all over the body, even those parts that resemble women. "There are many examples of mermaids allegedly seen like this, and media reports of mermaids are not uncommon.
In April 1990, Wen Wei Po reported that some scientists were trying to find the most astonishing discovery of archaeology today. The origin of the mummified remains of a mermaid 3,000 years ago. A team of construction workers found the unbelievable creature in a tomb near the shores of the Black Sea outside Sochi. The news of this discovery was recently revealed to the West by the Soviet archaeologist Dr. Jeremia. She looks like a beautiful dark-skinned princess with a fish's tail underneath. This astonishing creature measures 173 centimeters in length from the top of its head to its scaly tail. Scientists believe she was over 100 years old when she died.
On July 2, 1991, Singapore's "United Daily" published a report entitled "12,000-year-old mermaid fossils found off the coast of Yugoslavia": Scientists recently unearthed the world's first complete mermaid fossil, confirming that this animal, which used to appear only in fairy tales, did exist in the real world. The fossils were found off the coast of Yugoslavia. The fossils are well preserved, and it is clear that the animal had sharp teeth and strong jaws. Enough to tear flesh and bones and kill the prey. "This animal is female. It appeared on the nearby coast about 12,000 years ago. "Berglie? Dr. Ogani said.
Dr. Ogani is an archaeologist from California, USA, who has been working in the sea where mermaids appear for 4 years. "It was buried alive during an underwater landslide and then protected by the surrounding limestone and slowly turned into fossils," Dr. Ogani said. Fossil display. The mermaid is 160 centimeters tall, human-like from the waist up, has a well-developed head, a fairly large brain, sharp claws on both hands, and eyes like other fish. There is no eyesight.
There are also discoveries of live mermaids. In 1962, there was an incident in which scientists caught a little mermaid alive. The British newspaper The Sun reported in detail: In 1962, a probe ship carrying scientists and military experts captured a small child off the coast of Cuba who could speak human language, with scaly skin, gills, a head like a man, and a tail like a fish. The little mermaid claimed to be from the city of Atlantis and told researchers that millions of years ago, the continent of Atlantis spanned Africa and South America before sinking to the bottom of the sea...... The people who survive today live on the ocean floor and live up to 300 years. Later, the little mermaid was sent to a secret research facility in the Black Sea for scientists to study in depth.
Various reports continue, are mermaids real? At least there are a lot of people who want to believe it. At this time, all kinds of discussions sounded on the ship, and some people even ran out and shouted loudly on the deck, asking Qin Xuebing to take them to watch the mermaid.
"Quiet, please be quiet!"
Qin Xuebing seemed to know that the boat was extremely noisy, so he deliberately reminded him before continuing: "The treasure is the treasure of the mermaid. But what's even more amazing is the treasure spot, the mermaid's lair, which is a world you would never have imagined. ”
What kind of world? Qin Xuebing's voice seemed to be full of magic, and everyone pricked up their ears. He said slowly, "It was a rebellious world. Why is it called a rebellious world, for example, it is like an island, and the whole island is turned upside down, and it is such a world. ”
"Hell, who is this kid fooling?" The ancient first did not believe that there was no such thing as an upside-down island in this world. Unless it's in shallow water, where the island is upside down. In that case, it is not the same as soaking in water, and there is no bullshit against the world.
"It's the funniest joke I've ever heard." Vilia had already prepared to get up and get dressed, but when she heard this, she immediately lay down again. An upside-down island? What happens if you try to put a cup upside down in the water? If this is also called the world of rebellion, then she has no interest at all, and it is no different from diving.
"I think a lot of people are wondering, or even imagining, what a rebellious world is like. But it doesn't matter, we've already been in the morning and we're going to shoot it, and now you can see the island just by turning on the TV in your room. ”
Qin Xuebing knows very well that what he says is difficult to convince, but don't see, hearing is false, seeing is believing, and more importantly, convincing everyone to participate in the treasure hunt.
Perhaps, this temporary addition will be an extremely dangerous link, but it will definitely be an extremely exciting link, which will give everyone a new experience. I believe that after going there, everyone will feel that the trip is worthwhile, and the huge price paid to buy a ferry ticket is worth it.
Of course, this is just Qin Xuebing's wishful thinking, and it may also be the idea of most people, but it is by no means everyone's idea. At the end of the day, treasure hunting takes courage.
Many people are willing to travel to the Mysterious Island, and that is because they know something about the Mysterious Island, and it is generally certain that Qin Xuebing will be able to protect them. In addition, they did not plan to visit the entire mysterious island, but just wanted to see the novelty and feel the novelty in the periphery.
But this so-called rebellious world is different, it is an unknown world, even Qin Xuebing doesn't know what danger there is, how can this make them willing to try it themselves? There are some people who intuitively believe that their lives are very valuable, how can they easily take risks.
