I don't understand the words on the base, they are all like heavenly books, but through the vicinity of the base, I see a rare thing, this thing is the noon sun is in full bloom, under the irradiation, the shadow of the stone statue reflected on the ground makes me look extremely familiar, the rest are normal reflections, but the stone statue is reflected in the hand of the Dan furnace because of the special angle of the noon sun, it looks like a winged dragon.

I seemed to realize something, and hurriedly took out the dagger, pulled it out, and compared the pattern on the blade with the reflection on the ground, and found that the reflection on the ground was simply an enlarged version of the pattern on the dagger.

"So this ghost dragon came from here." I muttered.

Now I seem to understand one thing, why the ghost ship Kraken knew that the ship was deliberately docked in the secret mouth of this island, and under the circumstance of several officers and soldiers, it relied on this method to get out of the battlefield, create a false image, confuse the world, and deliberately cheat death, if it were not for the incomparable familiarity with this island, it would be difficult for anyone to find that hidden place on the island.

Therefore, it shows that the Sea Monster is not the first time to come, since it is not the first time to come, it means that it has been here many times, so it is logical that it can also intercept Li Hanmo's ship in the vicinity, and there is another point, since they have been here more than once, will they also see the reflection I see now, so they have derived from the ghost dragon totem they believe in?

If the Longju monk can deceive Yingchun in his dream that he is an immortal, will he also deceive the pirate leader Terry Buck?

Just thinking about it, Yun Wen had already returned from her horse and dismounted to look for me, but after seeing what I saw, she immediately said, "Isn't this Ying Long?" ”

"Ying Long, what is it?" I asked.

"Also known as the ancestral dragon or yellow dragon, it is said to be the common ancestor of birds and beasts, in ancient legends, it gives birth to phoenixes, unicorns, and phoenixes are the ancestors of birds, giving birth to all birds, and unicorns are the feet of all beasts, giving birth to all beasts." Yun Wen said.

"What does Ying Long look like?" I asked.

"That's it, Ying Long is a winged dragon god, just like what you see in the reflection on the ground, with wings and a dragon body." Yun Wen said.

"I see, this dagger should also be engraved with Yinglong, but foreigners like to imagine it themselves, and they carved our Yinglong totem into a big lizard with long wings, and called it a ghost dragon, laughing immortal." I said.

Yun Wen took the dagger and compared it, and couldn't help laughing, and said: "Sure enough, compared with each other, the movements, demeanor, and appearance of this ghost dragon are the same as those of Ying Long reflected on the ground, but the charm between the two is too different, and after their free creation, there is only a resemblance left between the two." ”

It's ridiculous to think of this notorious pirate group, whose terrifying ghost dragon totem turned out to be just a high-imitation pattern.

But now there is not so much time to mock these, the situation in the wilderness is changing rapidly, the danger is heavy, we can't take it lightly, before the gray powder does not attract other terrible things, we have to quickly withdraw to the house, and then Yunwen and I collected some more forage, and found some grass roots and wild vegetables that people can do, and we hurried back on horseback.

The cows were not hostile to the dogs, and as I passed by, I could see calves watching curiously nearby, which made me think of certain ideas.

On the way back, I didn't pass near the ghost vine again, but went straight back.

"Zhou Bo, why did you find out that I was lying in the first place, is it because you know me too well?" Yun Wen asked as she drove her horse, asking as she drove.

"First, you lie and have a small action, and second, I know the manipulator behind the ash, if it can infect your brain and make you do the things you say, why not take the opportunity to infect while we are sleeping, and then let you kill yourself, it's only a matter of a moment, isn't it very simple? Why wait for you to come out, and then notify you that you have arrived somewhere, and then kill you and welcome spring, this is too cumbersome to be like its method. I said.

"yes, it can stimulate our suicidal intent as you said, wouldn't it be better for us to commit suicide?" Yun Wen said.

"Everything in the world cannot be perfect, the gray powder manipulator also has its weaknesses, if I guess correctly, it should be when it wants to use gray powder, it must be half-respected, there has always been something on the sea monster, so it can always use its magical powers, let the pirates gallop in the sea, and even if the pirates are killed one by one by the mermaids, it can also use its magical powers to let the remnants of the deceased pirates continue to live on the ship in the form of ghosts, I almost died, I know that it can use the gray powder to replace the spirit consciousness, so it's all its tricks. I said.

"That's right! That's why it is said that the ghost can't be too far away from the Kraken, and that's the truth. Yun Wen said.

"I don't know what happened to Terry Buck, but judging from the totem comparison just now, I think he is a big wrongdoer, and he must have been played around by the gray powder post-manipulators for hundreds of years, and I don't know how that ship was given to him as a ghost ship, but there must be some way." I said.

"The ship has been changed, and the predecessor should still be the craft of the Ming Dynasty, so it should be the ship of Li Hanmo's predecessors, so it is possible that Li Hanmo's predecessors are the owners of the original ship, we got the order wrong, thinking that Li Hanmo's predecessors were guests, but in fact they are the masters." Yun Wen said.

Unconsciously returned to the post station, we led the horse back, Yun Wen first stayed in the stable, settled down, and gave it food and drink, and just returned to the courtyard, I saw a strange scene, I saw Yingchun was watering the wheat field in the courtyard, and Bai Lu was also stewing delicious things.

When Bai Lu saw me coming back, she hurriedly helped me with her bag and support, and took me into the house all the way, and when I sat down, she hurriedly closed the door slightly and said, "Brother Zhou Bo, what did Sister Yunwen tell you?" ”

Good guy, come and probe me, but I have promised Yunwen not to sell her, but I can't make her feel that there is no cost to making mistakes.

So he said, "Do you think I will believe whatever I hear?" I, Zhou Bo, am not stupid, I have recently taken care of the Spring Festival, otherwise I will be punished for several crimes. ”

She nodded, listening to my ambiguous words, and could only hold her tail for the time being.

Today is still the Spring Festival, this night his sisters are weak after all, so they don't dare to run back upstairs casually, what face does the side of the loss do so, this relationship can be regarded as a temporary balance, and it can also let everyone get together tonight for the Spring Festival.

Now the food is obviously insufficient, the whole cow has been eaten for a whole month because it can be frozen, plus a few pickled fish before, all have been eaten, the shrimp meat has long been gone, the fungus can be supplied, but other vegetarian dishes because they can't go out, so they are always in a state of scarcity.

As the end of the year, I counted it, there is still half a basket of beef left, save a little to eat, and it can last more than a week's amount, and the rest has been sold out, and the amount of sesame oil squeezed has also bottomed out, and even the dry seasoning that the meal has is gone.

So under such conditions, Bai Lu made a meal, probably stewed wild vegetables and fungus in beef bone soup, as well as shabu-shabu and the like, which could barely survive the New Year's atmosphere.

After eating, I asked everyone to stay for the time being, held a small meeting, talked about the problems they were going to face, and asked them to come up with a plan to solve them.

So I said: "It's okay to go out, but from now on, everyone must unite with me, stop questioning each other, we will defeat this mastermind who controls the gray powder, and win this battle, so that we can go out to collect food in the open, the supply is insufficient, and the time is only seven days, everyone must think clearly, whether to believe me or others." ”

As I spoke, I couldn't help but glance at Yingchun, who also frowned at me.
