Chapter 216: Lingchi "Adult"
"What's wrong?" I asked.
After Yun Wen finished reading it, she sighed and said, "Zhou Bo, I think we should stay and not leave tonight." ”
I was very surprised, what I said just now, how did it change in a blink of an eye, which made me wonder what was said in the book I brought back, how could it make her suddenly change her mind, and she knew that we were in danger now, and made this decision.
"This booklet was found by me from an iron prison, where there is a senior, dressed in clothes should be the people of the Ming Dynasty, I see that it is the same origin, and there is a wooden sign on his waist that reads'Tan', out of curiosity about him, I rummaged through him, I never thought that I would turn to this booklet, I saw that there were four big characters in it'Dragon Seeking Imperial Envoy', I thought it was a little related to us, so I brought it back." I explained.
She nodded and said, "Zhou Bo, do you remember Li Mufeng's predecessors?" ”
"Of course I remember, although it was five hundred years apart, but it was also because of him that we were able to inherit the mantle and inherit these two dragon-seeking tooth zhangs, which can be regarded as half a master, how can we forget." I said.
"As a master and a benefactor who has left us a life path for us several times, shouldn't we also do something for him?" Yun Wen asked.
"If there is a chance, this is for sure, otherwise it will not seem that we are unkind, since we have accepted his kindness and put on the dragon-seeking tooth that he granted, if it is not to help, then it is impossible to say." I said.
"I think so too, so we can't leave tonight, we should stay, because the owner of this booklet is Li Mufeng's predecessor Li Hanmo, that is, the eldest son who was left in the capital when he was alone, and he then took this booklet to find his father by boat, unfortunately he was captured by the sea monster halfway, and then died in the black prison." Yun Wen said.
"What does it have to do with whether we stay or not?" I asked.
"The first half of this booklet is the correspondence between Li Mufeng's predecessors and the imperial court, probably the report work, and then stamped a seal to show that the envoy said, the last report work, the time interval is about 30 years, he said that he has found a way to live forever, and hopes that the court will send troops to rescue, so there will be no follow-up, and you can see that there is a comment under the previous chapter, only this last one is not, indicating that maybe the dynasty has changed, things are wrong, and no one has approved this article anymore." Yun Wen said.
"So, in the end, this report booklet was only discovered by his son, and then he came to him, and then there was the rest of the matter, right?" I asked.
"Yes, the messenger returned to this shore after thirty years, but after agreeing to go back to the mission so that Li Mufeng's predecessors could return to the capital, the messenger found that there was no one to care about anymore, so he could only hand it over to Li Mufeng's son and let him find a way to secretly bring his father back, but he never thought of this change. This is the previous article, and the latter article talks about Li Hanmo's own last journey, which is the reason why we need to manage it. Yun Wen said.
"What did you say later?" I asked.
"Three things were said, one of which was that the Black Ghost had captured him in order to find out his father's traces and find the secret elixir of immortality; Second, the Black Ghost deliberately made the outside world think that they had disappeared without a trace, and found a broken ship to burn it down, so that those bandits could return satisfied, and the reason for such a big effort to fake their death was that they didn't want more people to know about finding the elixir of life by themselves, so they acted such a play; Third, the merman defeated the sea monster and killed everyone, and before he died, he accidentally learned that the merman stole his father's things and wrote it down. Yun Wen said.
"What did the mermaids steal?" I asked.
"[Dragon's Spirit]." Yun Wen said.
"Dragon's Spirit? Dragon's Soul? I asked.
Yun Wen shook her head and said: "The dragon spirit is also one of the treasures you see in the Taiqiong Cave, in fact, it is the dragon's scales, but the dragon is good at hiding, this dragon scale falls into the mortal world, it can hide the aura, so there is a spirit, and if there is a spirit, it can be pregnant, which is also the reason why Li Mufeng's predecessors were able to live forever." ”
"Didn't Li Mufeng's predecessors rely on the Yin Eclipse Pot?" I asked.
"You forget, it was used by his orangutans and his men, he didn't use it himself, he just hid it." Yun Wen said.
"So, what the merman clan stole was the dragon scales, so you think we should get it back for Li Mufeng's seniors, right?" I asked.
"This is his son's last wish, if he can help, maybe he can try." Yun Wen said.
That being said, but after all, now we are the one who is being hunted down, and it is too late to escape, how can we have other thoughts to help get things back, and wish for Li Mufeng's son, this is really putting the cart before the horse, but Yun Wen is more or less like me, with a heart that will repay kindness.
If it weren't for Li Mufeng's predecessors, I couldn't find [Jinque], I wouldn't be able to solve the poison on Yun Wen's body, then Yun Wen would have died a long time ago, if it weren't for the organs and clues left by Li Mufeng's predecessors, we might have been killed by the orangutans, these are all kindnesses, and the grace of a little water should be reciprocated by a spring, and now that I know his eldest son's last wishes, I should indeed take it to heart.
"I think about this matter in the long run, we have to take care of ourselves first, before we can manage others, and help will definitely help, but we still have to look at opportunities and opportunities." I said.
Yun Wen was a little disappointed, but she still smiled reluctantly and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
So after we finished eating, I went outside to inquire about the movement, and found that there was no movement, so I pulled Yunwen to prepare to go out, all the way was quite smooth, out of the cabin, to the deck, out of the deck to a docking, Yunwen led the way in front, we passed by the side of the huge lobster, carrying kerosene lamps, ready to take advantage of the secret passage to go out.
I turned around and saw an old man standing there in the moonlight, saying a few words, and laughing again.
Once born, second ripe, when he reappeared, I didn't think it was so strange.
"What did he say?" I asked.
"He said we were killing ourselves, and we would be like him tonight." Yun Wen said.
"Hey, although you are a so-called ghost, it doesn't mean that you can just say these unlucky things casually, and accumulate some yin virtue, brother." I said.
Halfway through the translation, Yun Wen immediately laughed and said to me: "People are from abroad, how can they know what yin virtues are." ”
I care so much.
Now the upper body is naked, but it hasn't been frozen, so how can I have time to chatter.
Continue to carry the kerosene lamp forward, Yun Wen knew the way, walked to a certain place, there was a hole, Yun Wen moved away from the stone, there was a dog hole, said that you can find the way up by going in, I didn't think much about it and wanted to get in, but before I could drill into it, I saw a huge eye staring at me.
I took the kerosene lamp and shone it for a while, and found a person with goosebumps, and it pushed me so hard that I tumbled to the ground, knocked over the kerosene lamp, and rolled a few times before stopping, and my chest ached faintly.
Yun Wen hurriedly came to help me, and the kerosene lamp leaked, and the flames burned on the ground, and we could see clearly that the cave wall near the entire secret passage was full of mermaids, densely packed, not to mention thirty or forty, all of them were very large, and the leading sea water also kept making the sound of gurgling water, and the sound of clattering landing, like the sound of fish stranding on the ground.
Presumably, those sharks are constantly climbing up.
Dead!
Then I remembered what the old ghost had said, that we were really killing ourselves, and that we would be dead tonight.
This merman won't look for someone, but the kung fu of others is very capable, they can't find me, so they just wait for the rabbit to make a move, how can I forget this stubble?
I sat up, and I saw something come out of the dog's hole in the secret passage, and I saw that it was not a merman, but a huge toad, but with a spirit character written on its head, and its posture and demeanor were all humanoid.
Spirit?
Lingchi-sama!
I remember that Yun Wen suffered the door of life and death before, and she whispered in a dream, saying the tone of the antelope witch and begging for mercy, there is this word!
