Chapter 7: The Divine Fish
After driving away the ao, everyone stood on the deck with trepidation, and brought the aoe back over, after all, the fighting power of the aoke was not ordinary horror.
A disciple asked, "Master, that ao was burned by the fire, so he shouldn't come again, right?" Xu Fu wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve and looked at the sea and said, "That little bit of fire just now won't hurt it, it just scares it away." We've already provoked it just now, and whether it will come or not, we still have to be careful. After all, there will not be only one turtle in such a large sea area, there may be other monsters. So it's better to be careful."
When the disciples heard Xu Fu say that there were other monsters in the sea area, they all looked at Xu Fu in amazement. Xu Fu looked at the endless sea and sighed: "This sea area is so big, it is impossible to have only sea pythons, sharks, and Ao monsters in it, and there are much bigger and more terrifying than them." It's just that we haven't encountered them yet, and I hope we don't encounter them either! ”
After speaking, he closed his eyes and prayed silently: "We are just passing by, I hope God will bless us from letting the monsters in the sea again." Then he lit another incense stick and put it on the bow of the boat and said loudly to the sea: "Mortal Xu Fu, this time I passed by your territory to go to the abbot, Penglai, and Yingzhou. We will not disturb your practice, and we hope that you will take care of it. ”
A disciple asked Xu Fu curiously, "Master, will you appreciate them like this?" Xu Fu shook his head: "Not necessarily, but they will also be afraid that we will disturb their cultivation, so we just need to make sure that they are just passing by." They shouldn't be hard at us. After speaking, Xu Fu asked his disciple to take the python bead that he had dug up before, and saw that the people in front of him were already scarred and exhausted at this time. Xu Fu lit a black incense stick and shouted into the sea: "This time passing by your territory, the mortal people have no good treasures to pay tribute to you, this python bead is now dedicated to you, I hope you can let the mortals and others pass smoothly in front." ”
Then, Xu Fu took out the python bead wrapped in sheepskin, and then held the python bead above his head with both hands and threw it into the sea.
The disciple behind him asked distressedly, "Master, why did we throw away the python beads that we dug up with great difficulty?" Before, we fought with the demon for a long time in order to keep it. ”
Xu Fu turned his head and smiled indifferently: "The aura on this python bead is too heavy, and it will attract more monsters to worry about." And our ship can no longer withstand the toss, and if we continue to fight, we are afraid that we have not yet reached our destination. We will either be killed by monsters or drowned in this vast sea. Besides, look at what you look like now, scarred and exhausted. If we run into some monsters again, we have no chance of winning! ”
When the disciples heard Xu Fu say this, they all bowed their heads and remained silent. Xu Fu smiled: "Don't be reluctant, it's just a python bead." For us, no python bead can compare to the peace of all of us. It is better to dedicate it to the cultivators in the sea and pray for a safe passage through the vast sea. If we really find the elixir of immortality on those demon mountains, you say, is this python bead still important? ”
The disciples nodded and said, "It turns out that the master is for the sake of the safety of all of us, so if you say this, don't let the python bead be, after all, it is a treasure in this sea, let it belong in this sea... Before the words fell, the power system that had been destroyed by the demon crow, and the slow-moving ship suddenly accelerated and rushed forward.
The faces of all the disciples changed, and they all looked to the bottom of the boat. Xu Fu was shocked and said: "The python bead has been thrown just now, why is there still something pushing the boat, does God really want to leave us in this sea and become food in the belly of the fish?" ”
After saying that, he desperately pulled out the sword at his waist and ordered his disciples to bring all the fire oil over. Xu Fu looked at the pale disciples and sighed helplessly: "It seems that we can't reach our destination." One of the disciples roared angrily, "Master, let's fight!" Several other disciples also chimed in: "That's right! Master, let's fight! ”
Xu Fu looked at the generous tone of the disciples in front of him, nodded and said, "We just can't fight, we have to fight, there is still so much fire oil here." If we can't fight it, we'll set the ship on fire and die with it. The disciples nodded and said, "Master, we are not afraid, after eighteen years, we will be a man again, and we will follow Master in the next life." Xu Fu showed a meaningful smile and prepared to instruct his disciples to attack the monsters pushing the boat under the boat.
Suddenly, there was a "bang", and a huge white fish jumped out of the sea, and the giant fish was covered with silver-white scales the size of a palm. I saw the giant fish nod at everyone on the boat, and then dived into the bottom of the boat and pushed the boat on.
Xu Fu saw that the giant fish had no malicious intent, and hurriedly instructed the disciples not to act rashly first, and then see the situation.
Then Xu Fu came to the bow of the boat and lit a black incense, and then took out a charm and quickly made a handprint. Then he clasped his hands and asked on the surface of the sea, "Dare to ask where the divine is at the bottom of the ship of the mortals?" What is the intention? ”
The calm sea suddenly rolled up, and the giant fish stuck its head out of the water and said to Xu Fu at the bow of the boat: "Ahead... Dangerous... I.. To you ... Past... I.. Pushing the boat... Let's go" The intermittent voice was like that of a baby who had just learned to speak, but the voice was deeper and hoarse.
Xu Fu and the other disciples were stunned when they heard this, they didn't expect this giant fish to be able to speak, it seemed that it had already cultivated to the essence.
Xu Fu asked again: "Are you an immortal or a demon?" Why help us? ”
The giant fish opened its mouth and said, "I... Here's ... Cultivating for a thousand years... Fish God, just ... Python beads... I speak... Thank you... Xu Fu listened carefully and immediately understood the meaning of the giant fish: I am a fish god who has cultivated here for thousands of years, and I just swallowed the python bead you thrown. Now I can speak, thank you.
Xu Fu smiled: "That python bead can make your cultivation go further, and we have no choice but to throw it away." It seems that this python bead is destined to be yours! Hahahaha" Saying this, Xu Fu laughed.
Then the fish asked, "You ... Where to go.. Danger ahead ... Demon Ao... I send you ... There I am ... They dare not come ... ”
When the disciples heard that this giant fish was here to help them, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. But when I heard the giant fish say that there was a demon in front of me, I suddenly became nervous again. Xu Fu comforted everyone: "Don't worry! The fish god just said that with it, the demon turtle didn't dare to come. The hearts of the disciples finally fell.
Xu Fu said again: "We are going to the abbot, Yingzhou, Penglai." I don't know how long I have to walk. Alas! ”
When the giant fish heard this, he shook his huge fishtail and raised his voice: "It's not far away, but it's not a place for you mortals to go." I didn't even dare get too close. Perhaps it was because he got used to talking, and the giant fish began to speak fluently.
Xu Fu asked: "Why can't you go there, you are now a fish god, and even you dare not approach." What the hell is there? ”
The giant fish sank its head into the sea, and after a while. It raised its head and said, "That's the Demon King's graveyard. A thousand years ago, the Demon King made waves in that water, and did evil everywhere. Later, it was sealed by the water tribe and humans, and the demon king was sealed in the cave on Penglai Island. But after that war, the water tribe suffered heavy losses, and the human race was completely wiped out. So since then, it has been a forbidden place. No creature dared to approach, and the other monsters on Penglai often appeared as humans, making passing humans mistakenly think that there were people living there. Then the monsters will trick them into eating them on the island. ”
The giant fish said, "Because the mountain is full of smoke, many people think that there are immortals living on those mountains, and they have gone up to ask the immortals. But they don't know that they deliver food to their door."
The giant fish looked at Xu Fu and asked, "Did you also go up to ask for immortals?" If so, I'd better send you back! Where did you come from? ”
Xu Fu pointed in the direction of the sunset and said, "We are all from the East China Sea, and we are all from Great Qin. The fish looked at the sky as if to say to himself, "The East China Sea is a good place, it's beautiful, I haven't been there for hundreds of years." ”
Xu Fu smiled and looked into the distance and said, "We are people from the Mountain Walking Sect, and all behind me are my disciples. We went to those mountains originally to help His Majesty the First Emperor of Great Qin to seek the elixir of immortality, but later I heard that it was a demon mountain, and there were all kinds of monsters on the mountain that harmed people. So we're going to go and break into the Demon Mountain, hoping to destroy them. ”
